Form of Change of Control Agreement

 Exhibit 10.16 
  
 INTERVIDEO, INC. 
  
 CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT 
  
 This Change of Control Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of
                    , 2003 (the “Effective Date”), by and between
                             (the “Employee”) and InterVideo, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 1 below. 
  
 R E C I T A L S 
  
 A. It is expected that the Company from time to time will consider the possibility of a Change of Control. The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) recognizes that such consideration can be a
distraction to the Employee and can cause the Employee to consider alternative employment opportunities. 
  
 B. The Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to provide the Employee with an incentive to continue his
employment and to maximize the value of the Company upon a Change of Control for the benefit of its stockholders. 
  
 C. In order to provide the Employee with enhanced financial security and sufficient encouragement to remain with the Company notwithstanding the
possibility of a Change of Control, the Board believes that it is imperative to provide the Employee with certain benefits upon the Employee’s termination of employment following a Change of Control. 
  
 AGREEMENT 
  
 In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and the continued employment of Employee by the Company, the
parties agree as follows: 
  
 1. Definition of Terms. The
following terms referred to in this Agreement shall have the following meanings: 
  
 (a) Cause. “Cause” shall mean (i) any act of dishonesty, fraud or mispresentation taken by the Employee in connection with his responsibilities as an employee, (ii) Employee’s conviction of, or
entering a plea of nolo contendere to, a felony which the Board reasonably believes has had or will have a detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or business, (iii) Employee’s breach of any confidentiality agreement or
invention assignment agreement between the Employee and the Company, (iv) a willful act or gross negligence by the Employee which constitutes misconduct and is injurious to the Company, and (v) continued violations by the Employee of the
Employee’s obligations to the Company after there has been delivered to the Employee a written demand for performance from the Company which describes the basis for the Company’s belief that the Employee has not substantially performed his
duties. 
  

 (b) Change of Control. “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the
following events after the date of this Agreement: 
  
 (i) the
merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining
outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such
merger or consolidation; 
  
 (ii) the sale or disposition by the
Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; 
  
 (iii) the approval by the stockholders of the Company of a plan of complete liquidation of the Company; or 
  
 (iv) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) becoming the
“beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities.

  
 (c) Involuntary Termination. “Involuntary
Termination” shall mean (i) without the Employee’s express written consent, a significant reduction of the Employee’s duties or responsibilities relative to the Employee’s duties or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to
such reduction, or the removal of the Employee from such duties and responsibilities, unless the Employee is provided with comparable duties and responsibilities; provided, however, that a reduction in title solely by virtue of the Company being
acquired and made part of a larger entity (as, for example, when a Vice President of the Company remains as such following a Change of Control but is not made a Vice President of the acquiring corporation) shall not constitute an “Involuntary
Termination;” (ii) without the Employee’s express written consent, a substantial reduction, without good business reasons, of the facilities and perquisites (including office space and location) available to the Employee immediately prior
to such reduction; (iii) a reduction by the Company of at least 25% of the Employee’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to such reduction; (iv) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits to which the
Employee is entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that the Employee’s overall benefits package is significantly reduced; (v) without the Employee’s express written consent, the relocation of the Employee to a
facility or a location more than fifty (50) miles from his current location; (vi) any purported termination of the Employee by the Company which is not effected for Cause or for which the grounds relied upon are not valid; or (vii) the failure of
the Company to obtain the assumption of this Agreement by any successors contemplated in Section 6 below. 
  
 2. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate upon the date that all obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement have been
satisfied or, if earlier, on the date, prior to a Change of Control, Employee is no longer employed by the Company. 
  

 -2- 

 3. At-Will Employment. The Company and the Employee acknowledge that the Employee’s
employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. If the Employee’s employment terminates for any reason, the Employee shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages, awards or compensation other than as
provided by this Agreement, or as may otherwise be established under the Company’s then existing employee benefit plans or policies at the time of termination. 
  
 4. Stock Options Acceleration. 
  
 (a) Termination Following A Change of Control. If the Employee’s employment with the Company terminates as a
result of an Involuntary Termination at any time within one (1) month prior to or thirteen (13) months after a Change of Control, all stock options granted by the Company to the Employee prior to the termination shall become fully vested and
exercisable as of the date of the termination to the extent such stock options are outstanding and unexercisable at the time of such termination and all stock subject to a right of repurchase by the Company (or its successor) that was purchased
prior to the termination shall have such right of repurchase lapse with respect to all of the shares 
  
 (b) Termination Apart from a Change of Control. If the Employee’s employment with the Company terminates other than as a result of an
Involuntary Termination within the one (1) month prior to or thirteen (13) months following a Change of Control, then the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any benefits hereunder, but may be eligible for those benefits (if any) as may then
be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans and policies at the time of such termination. 
  
 (c) Accrued Wages and Vacation; Expenses. Without regard to the reason for, or the timing of, Employee’s termination of employment: (i) the
Company shall pay the Employee any unpaid base salary due for periods prior to the termination; (ii) the Company shall pay the Employee all of the Employee’s accrued and unused vacation through the termination; and (iii) following submission of
proper expense reports by the Employee, the Company shall reimburse the Employee for all expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred by the Employee in connection with the business of the Company prior to the termination. These payments shall be
made promptly upon termination and within the period of time mandated by law. 
  
 5. Limitation on Payments. In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to the Employee (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning
of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then Employee’s benefits under this Agreement shall be either 
  
 (a) delivered in full, or 
  
 (b) delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of
such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax, 
  

 -3- 

 whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income
taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by Employee on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. 
  
 Unless the Company and the Employee otherwise agree in writing, any
determination required under this Section shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Employee and the Company for all
purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the
application of Section 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Employee shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company
shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section. 
  
 6. Successors. 
  
 (a) Company’s Successors. Any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation,
liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets shall assume the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and agree expressly to perform the Company’s obligations under this Agreement in
the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform such obligations in the absence of a succession. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s
business and/or assets which executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in this subsection (a) or which becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement by operation of law. 
  
 (b) Employee’s Successors. Without the written consent of the Company, Employee shall not assign or transfer
this Agreement or any right or obligation under this Agreement to any other person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of this Agreement and all rights of Employee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by,
Employee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. 
  
 7. Notices. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given
when personally delivered or when mailed by an overnight courier or the U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In the case of the Employee, mailed notices shall be addressed to him at the home address which
he most recently communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, mailed notices shall be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices shall be directed to the attention of its Secretary. 
  

 -4- 

 8. Arbitration. 
  
 (a) Any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the interpretation,
validity, construction, performance, breach, or termination thereof, shall be settled by binding arbitration to be held in Santa Clara County, California in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect
of the American Arbitration Association (the “Rules”). The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the
arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction. 
  
 (b) The arbitrator(s) shall apply California law to the merits of any dispute or claim, without reference to conflicts of law rules. The arbitration
proceedings shall be governed by federal arbitration law and by the Rules, without reference to state arbitration law. Employee hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in California for any action or
proceeding arising from or relating to this Agreement or relating to any arbitration in which the parties are participants. 
  
 (c) Employee understands that nothing in this Section modifies Employee’s at-will employment status. Either Employee or the Company can terminate the
employment relationship at any time, with or without Cause or notice. 
  
 (d) EMPLOYEE HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THIS SECTION, WHICH DISCUSSES ARBITRATION. EMPLOYEE UNDERSTANDS THAT SUBMITTING ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY,
CONSTRUCTION, PERFORMANCE, BREACH OR TERMINATION THEREOF TO BINDING ARBITRATION, CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF EMPLOYEE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE

of shares subject to this Plan, the number and kind of shares and the price per share subject to outstanding Option Agreements and the limit on the number of shares under Section 3.3, all in order to preserve, as nearly as practical, but not to

 ARTICLE 5.

  
 OPTIONS 
  
 5.1.    Option
Agreement.    Each Option granted pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement which shall specify the number of shares subject thereto, vesting provisions relating to such Option, the Exercise Price per
share, and whether the Option is an Incentive Option or Nonqualified Option. As soon as is practical following the grant of an Option, an Option Agreement shall be duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Optionee to whom
such Option was granted. Each Option Agreement shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Administrator shall, from time to time, deem desirable. Each Option
Agreement may be different from each other Option Agreement. 
  
 5.2.    Exercise Price.    The Exercise Price per share of Common Stock covered by each Option shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following: (a) the Exercise Price
of an Incentive Option shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value on the date the Incentive Option is granted, (b) the Exercise Price of a Nonqualified Option shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value on the date the Nonqualified Option
is granted, and (c) if the person to whom an Incentive Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder on the date of grant, the Exercise Price shall not be less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date the Incentive Option is granted. However, an Option

 5.3.    Payment of Exercise
Price.    Subject to any legal restrictions, payment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon exercise of an Option and may be made, in the discretion of the Administrator, by: (a) cash; (b) check; (c) the surrender of shares
of Common Stock owned by the Optionee (provided that if such shares were acquired pursuant to the exercise of options granted by the Company, such shares must have been held by the Optionee for at least six (6) months), which surrendered shares
shall be valued at Fair Market Value as of the date of such exercise; (d) the cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Optionee; (e) the waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Optionee for services rendered; (f) provided that a
public market for the Common Stock exists, a “same day sale” commitment from the Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to sell a portion of the shares so purchased to pay for the
Exercise Price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; (g) provided that a public market for the Common Stock exists, a “margin” commitment from the
Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to pledge the shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price,
and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; or (h) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment or any other consideration or method of payment as shall be
permitted by applicable law. 
  

 4 

 5.4.    Term and Termination of Options.    The
term and provisions for termination of each Option shall be as fixed by the Administrator, but no Option may be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date it is granted. An Incentive Option granted to a person who is a 10% Stockholder on
the date of grant shall not be exercisable more than five (5) years after the date it is granted. 
  
 5.5.    Vesting and Exercise of Options.    Each Option shall vest and become exercisable in one or
more installments at such time or times and subject to such conditions, including without limitation the achievement of specified performance goals or objectives, as shall be determined by the Administrator. 
  
 5.6.    Annual Limit on Incentive
Options.    To the extent required for “incentive stock option” treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Common Stock with respect to which
Incentive Options granted under this Plan and any other plan of the Company or any Affiliated Company become exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. 
  
 5.7.    Nontransferability of
Options.    Options shall not be assignable or transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and during the life of the Optionee shall be exercisable only by such Optionee. 
  
 5.8.    Rights as
Stockholder.    An Optionee or permitted transferee of an Option shall have no rights or privileges as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by an Option until such Option has been duly exercised and certificates
representing shares purchased upon such exercise have been issued to such person. 
  
 ARTICLE 6. 
  
 ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 
  
 6.1.    Administrator.    Authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan shall be vested in the Board, which may delegate such responsibilities in whole or
in part to a committee consisting of two (2) or more members of the Board (the “Committee”). Members of the Committee may be appointed from time to time by, and shall serve at the pleasure of, the Board. The Board may limit the composition
of the Committee to those persons necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As used herein, the term “Administrator” means the Board or, with respect to any matter as to
which responsibility has been delegated to the Committee, the term Administrator shall mean the Committee. 
  
 6.2.    Powers of the Administrator.    In addition to any other powers or authority conferred upon
the Administrator elsewhere in the Plan or by law, the Administrator shall have full power and authority: (a) to determine the persons to whom, and the time or times at which, Incentive Options or Nonqualified Options shall be granted, the number of
shares to be represented by each Option, and the consideration to be received by the Company upon the exercise of such Options; (b) to interpret the Plan; (c) to create, amend or rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (d) to determine
the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in, and the form of, Option Agreements; (e) to determine the identity or capacity of any persons who may be entitled to exercise an Optionee’s rights under any Option under the Plan; (f) to
correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Option Agreement; (g) to accelerate the vesting of any Option; (h) to amend outstanding Option Agreements to provide for, among other things, any change
or modification which the Administrator could have included in the original Agreement or in furtherance of the powers provided for herein; and (i) to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, but only
to the extent not contrary to the express provisions of the Plan. Any action, decision, interpretation or determination made in good faith by the Administrator in the exercise of its authority conferred upon it under the Plan shall be final and
binding on the Company and all Optionees. 
  
 6.3.    Limitation on Liability.    No employee of the Company or member of the Board or Committee shall be subject to any liability with respect to duties under the Plan unless the
person acts fraudulently or in bad faith.

To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify each member of the Board or Committee, and any employee of the Company with duties under the
Plan, who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of such person’s conduct in the performance of duties
under the Plan. 
  
 ARTICLE 7. 
  
 CHANGE IN CONTROL 
  
 7.1.    Change in
Control.    In order to preserve an Optionee’s rights in the event of a Change in Control of the Company: 
  
           (a)    Vesting of all outstanding Options shall accelerate
automatically effective as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control unless the Options are to be assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or new options or New Incentives are to be issued in exchange
therefor, as provided in subsection (b) below. 
  
           (b)    Vesting of outstanding Options shall not accelerate if and to the extent that: (i) the Options (including the unvested portion thereof) are to be
assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or new options of comparable value are to be issued in exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction, or (ii) the Options (including the unvested portion
thereof) are to be replaced by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) with other incentives of comparable value under a new incentive program (“New Incentives”) containing such terms and provisions as the Administrator in
its discretion may consider equitable. If outstanding Options are assumed, or if new options of comparable value are issued in exchange therefor, then each such Option or new option shall be appropriately adjusted, concurrently with the Change in
Control, to apply to the number and class of securities or other property that the Optionee would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option had the Option been
exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control, and appropriate adjustment also shall be made to the Exercise Price such that the aggregate Exercise Price of each such Option or new option shall remain the same as nearly as practicable.

  
           (c)    If any Option is assumed by an acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or a new option of comparable value or New Incentive is issued in
exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of a Change in Control transaction, then if so provided in an Option Agreement, the vesting of the Option, the new option or the New Incentive shall accelerate if and at such time as the Optionee’s
service as an employee, director, officer, consultant or other service provider to the acquiring or successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) is terminated involuntarily or voluntarily under certain circumstances within a specified period
following consummation of the Change in Control, pursuant to such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the Option Agreement. 
  
           (d)    If vesting of outstanding Options will accelerate pursuant
to subsection (a) above, the Administrator in its discretion may provide, in connection with the Change in Control transaction, for the purchase or exchange of each Option for an amount of cash or other property having a value equal to the
difference (or “spread”) between: (x) the value of the cash or other property that the Optionee would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option had the
Option been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control, and (y) the Exercise Price of the Option. 
  
           (e)    The Administrator shall have the discretion to provide in
each Option Agreement other terms and conditions that relate to (i) vesting of such Option in the event of a Change in Control, and (ii) assumption of such Options or issuance of comparable securities or New Incentives in the event of a Change in
Control. The aforementioned terms and conditions may vary in each Option Agreement, and may be different from and have precedence over the provisions set forth in Sections 7.1(a)—7.1(d) above. 
  
  

 6 

           (f)    Outstanding
Options shall terminate and cease to be exercisable upon consummation of a Change in Control except to the extent that the Options are assumed by the successor entity (or parent thereof) pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.

  
           (g)    If outstanding Options will not be assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof), the Administrator shall cause written notice
of a proposed Change in Control transaction to be given to Optionees not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the proposed transaction. 
  
 ARTICLE 8. 
  
 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 
  
 8.1.    Amendments.    The Board may from time to time alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan
in such respects as the Board may deem advisable. No such alteration, amendment, suspension or termination shall be made which shall substantially affect or impair the rights of any Optionee under an outstanding Option Agreement without such
Optionee’s consent. The Board may alter or amend the Plan to comply with requirements under the Code relating to Incentive Options or other types of options which give Optionees more favorable tax treatment than that applicable to Options
granted under this Plan as of the date of its adoption. Upon any such alteration or amendment, any outstanding Option granted hereunder may, if the Administrator so determines and if permitted by applicable law, be subject to the more favorable tax
treatment afforded to an Optionee pursuant to such terms and conditions. 
  
 8.2.    Plan Termination.    Unless the Plan shall theretofore have been terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date
and no Options may be granted under the Plan thereafter, but Options then outstanding shall continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms. 
  
 ARTICLE 9. 
  
 TAX WITHHOLDING 
  
 9.1.    Withholding.    The Company shall have the power to withhold, or require an Optionee to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any
applicable Federal, state, and local tax withholding requirements with respect to any Options exercised under the Plan. To the extent permissible under applicable tax, securities and other laws, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion and upon
such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate, permit an Optionee to satisfy his or her obligation to pay any such tax, in whole or in part, up to an amount determined on the basis of the highest marginal tax rate applicable to such Optionee,
by (a) directing the Company to apply shares of Common Stock to which the Optionee is entitled as a result of the exercise of an Option or (b) delivering to the Company shares of Common Stock owned by the Optionee. The shares of Common Stock so
applied or delivered in satisfaction of the Optionee’s tax withholding obligation shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date of measurement of the amount of income subject to withholding. 
  
 ARTICLE 10. 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 10.1.    Benefits Not
Alienable.    Other than as provided above, benefits under the Plan may not be assigned or alienated, whether voluntarily or involuntarily. Any unauthorized attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall
be without effect. 
  
 10.2.    No
Enlargement of Employee Rights.    This Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Company and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Company and any Optionee to be 

  

 7 

 
consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any Optionee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to give the right to
any Optionee to be retained as an employee of the Company or any Affiliated Company or to interfere with the right of the Company or any Affiliated Company to discharge any Optionee at any time. 
  
 10.3.    Application of
Funds.    The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Option Agreements, except as otherwise provided herein, will be used for general corporate purposes. 
  
 10.4.    Annual
Reports.    During the term of this Plan, the Company will furnish to each Optionee who does not otherwise receive such materials, copies of all reports, proxy statements and other communications that the Company distributes
generally to its stockholders.
