Company, which he shall perform faithfully and to the best of his ability. Executive shall be subject to the Company’s policies, procedures and approval practices, as generally in effect from time-to-time.

 5.3 Standard Benefits. During the term of this
Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans and programs, including paid vacations, to the same extent generally available to Company executives in accordance with the terms of those plans and programs. The

 5.5 Sarbanes-Oxley Act Loan Prohibition. To the extent that any Company benefit, program, practice,
arrangement or this Agreement would or might otherwise result in Executive’s receipt of an illegal loan (“Loan”), the Company shall use reasonable efforts to provide Executive with a substitute for the Loan that is lawful and of at
least equal value to Executive. If this cannot be done, or if doing so would be significantly more expensive to the Company than making the Loan, the Company need not make the Loan to Executive or provide him a substitute for it.

remedies available to it, seek and obtain an injunction restraining him from committing or continuing any such violation, without the need to prove the inadequacy of money damages or post any bond or for any other undertaking.

(iii) when faxed with confirmation of delivery. 
  
 10.
Arbitration of Disputes. If any legally actionable dispute arises which cannot be resolved by mutual discussion between the Company and Executive, then each party hereto agrees to resolve that dispute by binding arbitration before an arbitrator
experienced in 

  

 -6- 

 
employment law. Said arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules applicable to employment disputes of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation
Services or such other arbitration service as the Company and Executive agree upon, and the law of California. The Company will be responsible for paying any filing fee and the fees and costs of the arbitrator, as well as Executive’s legal
costs up to a maximum of 50% of Executive’s most recent Annual Base Salary. The Company and Executive agree that this promise to arbitrate covers any disputes that the Company may have against Executive, or that Executive may have against the
Company and all of its affiliated entities and their directors, officers, employees and agents, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the employment relationship or termination of employment, including any claims concerning the validity,
interpretation, effect or violation of this Agreement; violation of any federal, state or local law; any tort; and any other aspect of Executive’s compensation or employment. The Company and Executive further agree that arbitration as provided
in this Section 10 shall be the exclusive and binding remedy for any such dispute and will be used instead of any court action, which is hereby expressly waived, except for any request by either party hereto for temporary or preliminary
injunctive relief pending arbitration in accordance with applicable law, or an administrative claim with an administrative agency. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of such arbitration proceeding. The
arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of California, or Federal Law, if California law is preempted. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Diego, California, unless otherwise mutually
agreed. 
  
 11. Golden Parachute Limitation. Executive
agrees that the payments and benefits under this Agreement, and all other contracts, arrangements or programs that apply to him, shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the maximum amount that may be paid to Executive without triggering golden parachute
penalties under Section 280G and related provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, as determined in good faith by the Company’s independent auditors. If any benefits must be cut back to avoid triggering such penalties, Executive’s
benefits shall be cut back in the priority order designated by the Company. If an amount in excess of the limits set forth in this Section 11 is paid to Executive, Executive agrees to repay the excess amount to the Company upon demand, with
interest at the rate provided for in Internal Revenue Code Section 124(b)(2)(B). The Company and Executive agree to cooperate with each other in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings concerning the existence or amount of
golden parachute penalties with respect to payments or benefits Executive receives. 
  
 12. Amendment. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged except by a written document signed by Executive and a duly authorized Company officer. Thus, for example, promotions,
commendations, and/or bonuses shall not, by themselves, modify, amend, or extend this Agreement. A waiver of any conditions or provisions of this Agreement in a given instance shall not be deemed a waiver of such conditions or provisions at any
other time. 
  
 13. Interpretation and Exclusive Forum. The
validity, interpretation, construction, and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California (excluding any that mandate the use of another jurisdiction’s laws). Any arbitration (unless otherwise mutually
agreed), litigation or similar proceeding with respect to such matters only may be brought within California, and all parties to this Agreement consent to California’s jurisdiction. 
  

 -7- 

 14. Department of Homeland Security Verification Requirement. Executive agrees to timely file all
documents required by the Department of Homeland Security to verify his identity and lawful employment in the United States. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Executive fails to meet any such requirements promptly after
receiving a written request from the Company to do so, Executive agrees that his employment shall terminate immediately and that he shall not be entitled to any further compensation from the Company of any type. 
  
 15. Successors/Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and
shall inure to the benefit of, Executive and his estate, but Executive may not assign or pledge this Agreement or any rights arising under it, except to the extent permitted under the terms of the benefit plans in which he participates. The Company
may not assign this Agreement to any affiliate or successor without Executive’s prior written consent. 
  
 16. Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from any salary and benefits payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city and other taxes
or amounts as shall be determined by the Company to be required to be withheld pursuant to applicable laws, or governmental regulations or rulings. 
  
 17. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 
  
 18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute the same instrument. 
  
 19. Entire Agreement. Except for Executive’s Confidentiality
Agreement and Non-Competition Agreement, all oral or written agreements or representations, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement are set forth in this Agreement. 
  
 EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL UNDERSTANDINGS AND AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND HIM
RELATING TO THE SUBJECTS COVERED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE CONTAINED IN IT AND THAT HE HAS ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT VOLUNTARILY AND NOT IN RELIANCE ON ANY PROMISES OR REPRESENTATIONS BY THE COMPANY OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

  
 EXECUTIVE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAS CAREFULLY READ THIS AGREEMENT, THAT
HE UNDERSTANDS ALL OF IT, AND THAT HE HAS BEEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS AGREEMENT WITH HIS PRIVATE LEGAL COUNSEL AND HAS AVAILED HIMSELF OF THAT OPPORTUNITY TO THE EXTENT HE WISHED TO DO SO. EXECUTIVE UNDERSTANDS THAT BY SIGNING THIS
AGREEMENT HE IS GIVING UP HIS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

 (d) If Executive’s employment terminates for
(i) Cause, (ii) as a result of death or his becoming permanently disabled (as defined in Section 6.3), or (iii) due to voluntary resignation for any reason other than for Good Reason either 30 days before or within 18 months
following a Change in Control, then Executive shall be entitled only to the compensation set forth in Section 6.6(a). 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that the Company in good faith determines that any payment
pursuant to this Section 6.6 provides for a “deferral of compensation” under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (“Section 409A”), no amounts shall be payable to Executive pursuant to this
Section 6.6 prior to the earlier of (i) Executive’s death or “disability” (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(C)), or (ii) the date that is six months following the date of Executive’s “separation
from service” with the Company (within the meaning of Section 409A). 
  
 7. Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges that he currently possesses or will acquire secret, confidential, or proprietary information or trade secrets concerning the operations, customers, future plans and
business methods of the Company. Executive reaffirms his obligation to abide by the terms of any and all Confidentiality Agreements between himself and the Company. 
  
 7.1 Non-Competition Agreement. Executive reaffirms his obligation to abide by the terms of his
Non-Competition Agreement dated July 20, 2004. 
  
 7.2 Promise Not to Solicit. Following expiration of his Non-Competition Agreement, Executive agrees that, while this Agreement is in effect and for 12 months after its termination, he will not solicit or attempt to solicit (or
assist others to solicit) for employment any person who is, or within the preceding 12 months was, an employee of the Company. 
  
 7.3 Enforcement of this Section. This Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.
Executive acknowledges that (i) his services are of a special, unique and extraordinary character, and it would be very difficult if not impossible to replace them, (ii) this Section’s terms are reasonable and necessary to protect the
Company’s legitimate interest, (iii) this Section’s restrictions will not prevent Executive from earning or seeking a 

  

 -5- 

 
livelihood, (iv) this Section’s restrictions shall apply wherever permitted by law, and (v) Executive’s violation of any of this
Section’s terms would irreparably harm the Company. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, if he violates any of the provisions of this Section 7, or his Confidentiality Agreement, then the Company shall be entitled to, in addition to other
remedies available to it, seek and obtain an injunction restraining him from committing or continuing any such violation, without the need to prove the inadequacy of money damages or post any bond or for any other undertaking. 
  
 8. Restricted Stock and Stock Options. This Agreement does not
incorporate, supercede, nor any way affect any Stock Incentive Plan, restricted stock agreements or any stock option grants, all of which are governed by separate documents. 
  
 9. Notice. 
  
 9.1 To the Company. Executive will send all communications to the Company in writing, addressed as follows (or in any other
manner the Company notifies him to use), addressed as follows: 
  

			
	If Mailed:	  	Document Sciences Corporation
	 	  	Attn: __________________
	 	  	Address
		
	If Faxed:

	If Mailed:	  	__________________
	 	  	Address
		
	If Faxed:	  	__________________
	 	  	Fax:

 9.3 Time Notice Deemed Given. Notice shall be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered; (ii) two business days after being mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage
prepaid; or (iii) when faxed with confirmation of delivery. 
  
 10. Arbitration of Disputes. If any legally actionable dispute arises which cannot be resolved by mutual discussion between the Company and Executive, then each party hereto agrees to resolve that dispute by binding
arbitration before an arbitrator experienced in 

  

 -6- 

 
employment law. Said arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules applicable to employment disputes of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation
Services or such other arbitration service as the Company and Executive agree upon, and the law of California. The Company will be responsible for paying any filing fee and the fees and costs of the arbitrator, as well as Executive’s legal
costs up to a maximum of 50% of Executive’s most recent Annual Base Salary. The Company and Executive agree that this promise to arbitrate covers any disputes that the Company may have against Executive, or that Executive may have against the
Company and all of its affiliated entities and their directors, officers, employees and agents, arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the employment relationship or termination of employment, including any claims concerning the validity,
interpretation, effect or violation of this Agreement; violation of any federal, state or local law; any tort; and any other aspect of Executive’s compensation or employment. The Company and Executive further agree that arbitration as provided
in this Section 10 shall be the exclusive and binding remedy for any such dispute and will be used instead of any court action, which is hereby expressly waived, except for any request by either party hereto for temporary or preliminary
injunctive relief pending arbitration in accordance with applicable law, or an administrative claim with an administrative agency. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of such arbitration proceeding. The
arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of California, or Federal Law, if California law is preempted. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Diego, California, unless otherwise mutually
agreed. 
  
 11. Golden Parachute Limitation.
Executive agrees that the payments and benefits under this Agreement, and all other contracts, arrangements or programs that apply to him, shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the maximum amount that may be paid to Executive without triggering golden
parachute penalties under Section 280G and related provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, as determined in good faith by the Company’s independent auditors. If any benefits must be cut back to avoid triggering such penalties,
Executive’s benefits shall be cut back in the priority order designated by the Company. If an amount in excess of the limits set forth in this Section 11 is paid to Executive, Executive agrees to repay the excess amount to the Company upon
demand, with interest at the rate provided for in Internal Revenue Code Section 124(b)(2)(B). The Company and Executive agree to cooperate with each other in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings concerning the existence or
amount of golden parachute penalties with respect to payments or benefits Executive receives. 
  
 12. Amendment. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged except by a written document signed by Executive and a duly authorized Company officer. Thus, for example,
promotions, commendations, and/or bonuses shall not, by themselves, modify, amend, or extend this Agreement. A waiver of any conditions or provisions of this Agreement in a given instance shall not be deemed a waiver of such conditions or provisions
at any other time. 
  
 13. Interpretation and Exclusive
Forum. The validity, interpretation, construction, and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California (excluding any that mandate the use of another jurisdiction’s laws). Any arbitration (unless
otherwise mutually agreed), litigation or similar proceeding with respect to such matters only may be brought within California, and all parties to this Agreement consent to California’s jurisdiction.

 14. Department of Homeland Security Verification Requirement. Executive agrees to timely
file all documents required by the Department of Homeland Security to verify his identity and lawful employment in the United States. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Executive fails to meet any such requirements promptly
after receiving a written request from the Company to do so, Executive agrees that his employment shall terminate immediately and that he shall not be entitled to any further compensation from the Company of any type. 
  
 15. Successors/Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding
upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, Executive and his estate, but Executive may not assign or pledge this Agreement or any rights arising under it, except to the extent permitted under the terms of the benefit plans in which he participates.
The Company may not assign this Agreement to any affiliate or successor without Executive’s prior written consent. 
  
 16. Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from any salary and benefits payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city and other
taxes or amounts as shall be determined by the Company to be required to be withheld pursuant to applicable laws, or governmental regulations or rulings. 
  
 17. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any
other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 
  
 18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute the same instrument. 

 
 19. Entire Agreement. Except for Executive’s
Confidentiality Agreement and Non-Competition Agreement, all oral or written agreements or representations, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement are set forth in this Agreement. 
  
 EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL UNDERSTANDINGS AND AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND HIM
RELATING TO THE SUBJECTS COVERED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE CONTAINED IN IT AND THAT HE HAS ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT VOLUNTARILY AND NOT IN RELIANCE ON ANY PROMISES OR REPRESENTATIONS BY THE COMPANY OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

  
 EXECUTIVE FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAS CAREFULLY READ THIS AGREEMENT, THAT
HE UNDERSTANDS ALL OF IT, AND THAT HE HAS BEEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS AGREEMENT WITH HIS PRIVATE LEGAL COUNSEL AND HAS AVAILED HIMSELF OF THAT OPPORTUNITY TO THE EXTENT HE WISHED TO DO SO. EXECUTIVE UNDERSTANDS THAT BY SIGNING THIS
AGREEMENT HE IS GIVING UP HIS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
