RealNetworks Inc, Executive MBO Incentive Program
 

Objective of the Plan

The objective of the RealNetworks’ FY 2010 Executive MBO Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to
reward business leaders for their contribution to the Company’s success and ensure market
competitiveness as we work to attract and retain executive-level talent. RealNetworks has adopted
this plan to reward high performance consistent with our core business objectives.

 

Effective Date

This plan is effective January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010.

 

Target Goals

Target goals for the plan are set semi-annually and approved by the Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors. Plan objectives for 2010 are intended to be transitional and are designed
to recognize the following results: financial stability, effective execution of transformational
strategy milestones, and outstanding performance of key executives driving business results.

Semi-annual assessment of goal attainment will be completed after the close of the six month
period. Corresponding payout based on goal attainment will typically occur 30 to 45 days after the
close of the six month period.

Goal alignment is illustrated in the table below. For business leaders who are assigned to a
start-up division or business unit, the revenue and EBITDA metrics for the division or business
unit segment will be replaced with operating expense and divisional or business unit milestones
equally weighted, with the remaining fifty percent aligned to corporate financial and milestone
objectives.

proxy shall be indicated on the attendance card or in a letter, in either case bearing an original
signature.

8.2. The document that contains the form of representation shall include the agenda or have the
same attached thereto, along with the request for instructions for the exercising of the vote and
a statement as to the way in which the representative should cast the vote in the event of
specific instructions not being given. In the case of the absence of instructions for the
exercising of the right to vote by the shareholder that confers the instructions, it shall be
understood that the vote is to be cast in favour of the proposals that the Board of Directors
makes at each Meeting.

8.3. A form of representation conferred on an individual who is unable to hold this in accordance
with the Law shall not be valid or effective. The same shall apply to a form of representation
conferred by fiduciary or apparent title.

8.4. It shall also be possible for the representation to be conferred by means of electronic
means, for which a procedure shall be used similar to that established in article 11.2 of these
Regulations and the identity of the shareholder shall be accredited by means of the same
requirements laid down in the aforesaid section 11.2. The time period established in article 11.3
of these Regulations shall also apply for the valid receipt of the form of representation.

8.5. The representation shall always be revocable, it being considered to be revoked by personal
attendance of the conferring party at the Meeting.

Article 9. Public request for representation.

9.1. Under any circumstances, a public request for representation shall be made in accordance with
the Public Limited Companies Act and other applicable provisions.

9.2. In the case in which the directors or any other person may have made a public request for
representation, the director who obtains this shall not be able to exercise the right to vote
corresponding to the shares represented in those points on the agenda in which there is a conflict
of interest on his part and in any event, with regard to the following decisions:

	•	 	His appointment or ratification as a director.
	 
	•	 	His dismissal, separation or removal as a director.
	 
	•	 	The exercising of a company measure of censure against him.
	 
	•	 	The approval or ratification, as appropriate, of Company transactions with the director
concerned and companies controlled by him, or those that he represents or persons who act on his
behalf.

In such cases, the director who has obtained the form of representation shall be able to designate
another director or a third party who is not in a conflict of interest situation to

5

 

be able to validly undertake such representation, unless there is a prohibition against the
representative carrying out such a form of substitution or another person has been designated as
an alternative or supplementary representative for the case of the conflict of interest of the
representative who was initially appointed.

The delegation shall also include those points which, even though they may not be set out on the
agenda in the call, are dealt with at the Meeting as this is permitted under the Law. The terms of
the paragraph above also apply in such a case.

Article 10. Exercising of the vote by post or electronic means.

Voting on the proposals on points covered on the agenda at any class of General Meeting can be

identity of the person who exercises the vote is duly guaranteed, in line with the requirements
set out in article 11 of these Regulations.

Article 11. Formal requirements and time periods for the postal voting or voting by electronic
means.

information necessary to substantiate their status as shareholders. The signature of a shareholder
must be authorised by notary process or be acknowledged by a recipient entity participating in
Iberclear or be accredited by another means considered sufficient by the Board of Directors.
Should these be legal persons, the form must be accompanied by the corresponding document that
sufficiently accredits the form of representation with which the signatory acts.

b) This form shall be available on the web page of the Company from the date of publication of the
announcement of the call of the General Meeting. Likewise, the shareholders that so wish to can
request that the Company forwards said form by post from the date of publication of the
announcement of the call for the General Meeting and through the Shareholders’ Service Office.

c) The shareholder shall send the duly completed form to the Company so that it can be processed
and the vote counted.

regularised form provided to such ends by the Company and that will include the information
necessary for substantiating the status of shareholder.

b) Said form shall be available on the company’s web page from the date of publication of
the announcement of the General Meeting.

c) The shareholder shall forward a duly completed form to the Company so that it can be processed
and the vote counted, by means of an electronic document that shall

6

 

include a recognised electronic signature, as used by the shareholder, or another type of
electronic signature —that provides appropriate guarantees of authenticity and identification of
the shareholder who exercises his right to vote— that the Board of Directors has declared to be
sufficient by means of a prior resolution adopted to such effect, according to the status of the
technical resources and the applicable legal regulations at any time.

11.3. The vote cast by any of the means set out in sections 11.1 and 11.2 above shall be kept in
the possession of the Company at its head office, arriving there at least 24 hours prior to the

cannot be considered that the vote has been cast. The Board of Directors shall be able, in the
call for each General Meeting, to set a shorter time period.

11.4. The shareholder shall be the party who, in the appropriate case, shall substantiate that the
vote has been received by the Company within the period stated and in compliance with all of the
requirements established to such effect.

11.5. The casting of vote at a distance by a shareholder shall mean that the powers of
representation delegated by the same beforehand have been revoked, and those that are subsequently
conferred shall be understood as not being made. In the case of a transfer of the shares whose
ownership conferred the right to vote on the transferor, a postal vote shall be rendered without
effect when the same has lead to the due inscription of book-entry security in the accounting
register, at least five days prior to the day of the holding of the Meeting, if the new holder of
the shares exercises his right to vote.

for it to continue. Should such circumstances persist, the Table shall propose the extension of
the General Meeting on the following day, in conformity with the terms of the previous paragraph.

18.2. The shareholders who wish to intervene in the Meeting shall identify themselves to the
Notary or, upon indication of the latter, to the staff who assist him. They are to state their
names and surnames, the number of shares that they are holders of and those they represent and the
points on the agenda relating to which they shall be commenting on. Should they wish their
intervention to be recorded in the minutes of the Meeting, it shall be necessary to communicate
this in writing at such time to the Notary, so that the latter can check this off when the
shareholder’s intervention is made.

18.3. Once the Chairman or Secretary has the list of members who wish to contribute and prior to
the voting on the matters included on the agenda, the shareholders shall be called on to make
their interventions, appearing in the order in which they are featured.

The Chairman shall set the time initially allocated for each intervention, which shall be equal
for everyone, taking account of the number of requests and other circumstances, in the exercise of
his powers for ordering the undertaking of the Meeting.

When he so considers it opportune, the Chairman shall be able to extend the time initially
allocated to each shareholder and remove the opportunity to speak from them. He can also adopt the
measures necessary and take the decisions that ensure the maintenance and re-establishing of the
order of the General Meeting when improper statements are made or the rights are exercised in an
abusive or obstructing manner. He may even, for the benefit of the General Meeting itself,
instruct any individual who acts in such a manner to leave the premises and, as appropriate, take
the measures necessary to ensure compliance with this provision.

Article 19. Request for Information during the General Meeting

19.1. The shareholders shall be able, during their interventions, to verbally request the
information or clarifications that they consider appropriate regarding the business contained on
the agenda.

19.2. The directors shall be bound to provide the information requested, unless it is not
available in the Meeting, in which case, the directors shall be bound to furnish this information
in writing within the seven days following the conclusion of the Meeting, without prejudice to the
terms set out in the following paragraph.

19.3. Information shall not be provided when, in the judgement of the Chairman, one of the
following circumstances has arisen:

	 	(i)	 	When the request does not meet the legal requirements or the procedure set out in these
Regulations.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	When the requesting party has acted in clear abuse of his right.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	When this so results from legal provisions or judicial decisions.
	 
	 	(iv)	 	When the publishing of the data requested by shareholders could be detrimental to company
interests, in the judgement of the Chairman. It shall not be possible to refuse to provide
information for this reason when the request is supported by shareholders representing at
least one quarter of the share capital.

19.4. The information or clarification requested from the directors shall be furnished by the
Chairman, by the Managing Director, by the Secretary or, upon indication from the Chairman, by a
director, by the Chairman of the Audit Committee or by any employee or expert on the matter.

19.5. The Chairman shall determine the order of the replies to the shareholders and whether the
same take place after each intervention is made or, jointly, after the last one of the
contributors has addressed the Meeting. The shareholders do not have a right of reply, unless the
Chairman grants them this, due to the importance of the topic.

Article 20. Voting

20.1. Once all of the interventions by the shareholders have been concluded and the replies made
in conformity with the terms set out in these Regulations, the motions for resolutions on the
matter covered on the agenda or on those other matters that do not have to feature therein by
legal mandate shall be put to the vote.

20.2. The readings of the motions for resolutions by the Secretary of the Meeting can be omitted,
summarised or presented in extract form, on a decision by the Chairman, unless there is express
objection by the shareholders who represent at least one per cent of the share capital.

20.3. Nonetheless, it shall be necessary to read the whole of the text of the motions if the text
of the same has not been placed at the disposal of the shareholders at least fifteen days prior to
the date set for the holding of the Meeting, on the terms laid down in these Regulations.

20.4. In the case in which any of the motions placed at the disposal of or facilitated to the
shareholders has been modified by the Board of Directors, said modification shall be read out
prior to the voting on the motion.

20.5. Voting on the motions, as this concerns the votes cast at the Meeting, shall be carried out
according to the following procedure:

a) When there are motions for resolutions made by the Board of Directors, relating to business
covered on the agenda, the following shall be counted:

	(i)	 	As votes in favour: those corresponding to all the shares represented that are physically
present at the Meeting and those that are represented (unless there are instructions to the
contrary from the conferring party), plus the affirmative votes cast by long distance means.
	 
	(ii)	 	As votes against, those corresponding to the shares whose holders or representatives declare
that they are voting against, by means of the communication or expression of their vote to the
Notary at the Meeting so that they can be recorded in the minutes, along with the negative votes
cast by long distance means.

b) When there are motions for resolutions other than those made by the Board of Directors,
concerning business contained on the agenda, these shall be counted in the following way:

(i) as votes against, those corresponding to all of the shares that are physically present
at the Meeting and those that are represented (unless there are instructions to the contrary
from the conferring party), plus the negative votes cast by long distance means.

(ii) as votes in favour, those corresponding to the shares whose holders or representatives
declare that they are voting in favour, by means of the communication or expression of their
vote to the Notary at the Meeting, so they can be recorded in the minutes, plus the
affirmative votes cast by long distance means.

12

 

c) When there are motions for resolutions relating to business not contained on the agenda, the
same system as the one laid down in section b) above shall be followed (excluding the reference to
the votes cast by post or by electronic means).

20.6. Blank votes and abstentions shall likewise be reported to the Notary so these can be
recorded in the Minutes.

20.7. Nonetheless, on a decision by the Table of the Meeting, it shall be possible for other
voting systems to be set up for the adopting of resolutions that make it possible to substantiate
the form of the vote and record the result of the voting in the minutes.

20.8. In any event, voting shall firstly take place on the motions for resolutions drafted by the
Board of Directors and, when a motion for resolution has been approved, all of the other motions
relating to the same topic shall be dealt with, without these therefore being put to the vote.

20.9. Split voting shall be permitted, so that those who appear as shareholders on the accounting
register but who act as proxies for others may vote following instructions from the proxy grantor.

Article 21. Procedure for adopting resolutions

21.1. The resolutions shall be adopted by a majority of the votes of the capital in attendance.
This shall be understood as having been attained when the votes in favour of the motion are
greater than one half of the shares present and represented, unless there is a legal provision to
the contrary.

21.2. The Chairman of the Meeting shall inform the shareholders of the approval or otherwise of
the resolutions put forward to the General Meeting.

Article 22. Conclusion of the Meeting

Once the result of the voting has been announced, the Chairman of the Meeting shall be able to
close the meeting, concluding the session.

Article 23. Minutes of the Meeting

23.1. If the Board of Directors has designated a Notary to issue the Minutes of a session, the
notary document shall have the status of being the minutes of the Meeting and shall not require
approval by the latter.

23.2. If this is not the case, the Secretary of the Meeting shall issue the minutes thereof that
shall be contained in the Book of Minutes. These can be approved by the Meeting itself at the
conclusion thereof or, failing that, by the Chairman of the Meeting and two Vote Assessors,
proposed by the Organ of the Meeting —one representing the majority and the other the minority—
within a period of 15 days. The minutes shall be signed by the Secretary with the approval of the
Chairman.

Article 24. Publishing of Resolutions

Without prejudice to the entry of those resolutions that can be inscribed in the Companies
Register, and the legal provisions concerning the publishing of the company resolutions that may
be applicable, the Company shall — on the same day of the holding of the Meeting or the working
day immediately thereafter — forward the text of the resolutions approved to the Spanish
Securities and Exchange Commission, by means of the corresponding communication of relevant
information. The text of the resolutions shall likewise be made available through the Company web
page.

Article 25. Distribution of the Regulations of the Meeting

The Board of Directors shall take the measures necessary to ensure the distribution of these
Regulations amongst the shareholders, by means of the communication hereof to the Spanish
Securities and Exchange Commission as a relevant fact, the inscription hereof in the Companies
Register and their publication on the web page of the Company.

Article 26. Interpretation and Modification

These Regulations conclude and set out the terms set out by the Bylaws in relation to the General
Meeting. They are to be interpreted by the Board of Directors in accordance therewith and with the
legal provisions that may be applicable. The doubts that may arise during the holding of the
General Meeting concerning the interpretation of these Regulations shall be resolved by the
Chairman with the assistance of the Secretary of the Board.

Any modification to these Regulations shall be approved by the General Meeting established with
the quorum under art 17.1 above, with the due report from the directors substantiating the same.

Article 27. Approval and Monitoring

These Regulations shall be applicable once they have been approved by the Shareholders’ General
Meeting, reported to the Spanish Securities and Exchange Commission as Relevant Information and
inscribed in the Companies Register.
