Blake Jorgensen

Dear Blake:

On behalf of Yahoo! Inc. (“Yahoo!” or the “Company”), I am pleased to offer you the position of
Chief Financial Officer (CFO), reporting to Yahoo!’s Chief Executive Officer, Terry Semel, based in
our Sunnyvale, California headquarters. Your appointment is subject to approval by the Company’s
Board of Directors and your compensation package as outlined herein is subject to approval of the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Compensation Committee”).

Compensation

Your starting base salary will be $37,500.00 per month ($450,000.00 annually), less applicable
taxes and withholdings, paid semi-monthly and subject to annual review. You will also be eligible
to receive an annual target cash bonus of 100% of your annual base salary ($450,000) to be
determined by the Compensation Committee in its descretion based on your performance and the
Company’s performance for the relevant year. Any bonus payment will be subject to applicable taxes
and withholdings. To qualify for the incentive bonus, you must remain continuously employed with
the Company through the date that any incentive bonus is approved by the Compensation Committee.

Stock Options

As a part of the Yahoo! team, we strongly believe that ownership of the Company by our employees is
an important factor to our success. Therefore, following your date of hire, management will
recommend that the Compensation Committee grant you an option to purchase 425,000 shares of Yahoo!
Inc.’s common stock under Yahoo! Inc.’s 1995 Stock Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). The per share
exercise price of this option will be the fair market value of a share of Yahoo! common stock on
the date of grant of this option as determined by the Compensation Committee. The option will
vest in accordance with the following schedule: 25% of the shares subject to this option will vest
and become exercisable on the first anniversary of your Date of Hire, and the remaining 75% of the
shares subject to this option will vest and become exercisable, in six equal installments, vesting
every six months thereafter, such that this option will be fully vested at the end of four years
following the Date of Hire, contingent upon your continued employment with Yahoo! through each
vesting date. This option will be subject to the other terms and conditions of the Plan and the
applicable stock option agreement.

Restricted Stock Units 

In addition, management will also recommend that the Board of Directors grant you an award of
125,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable
restricted stock unit award agreement. The RSUs will vest on the third anniversary of the date of
grant, provided that you have been continuously employed with Yahoo! through such date. Following
the vesting of the RSUs, you will receive one share of Yahoo! Inc. common stock for each vested RSU
(subject to tax withholding).

Benefits

You will be eligible to participate in the regular Yahoo! health insurance benefits, 401(k),
Employee Stock Purchase Plan, vacation, and other employee benefit plans, programs and policies,
including the travel policy established by Yahoo! generally for its senior management. Yahoo! will
reimburse you for reasonable business expenses incurred in connection with your employment, upon
presentation of appropriate documentation, in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement
policies.

Obligations

During your employment, you shall devote your full business efforts and time to Yahoo!. This
obligation, however, shall not preclude you from engaging in appropriate civic, charitable or
religious activities or from serving on the boards of directors of one or two companies that are
not competitors to Yahoo!, as long the activities do not materially interfere or conflict with your
responsibilities to, or your ability to perform your duties of employment by, Yahoo! under this

As an employee of Yahoo!, it is likely that you will become knowledgeable about confidential and or
proprietary information related to the operations, products and services of the Company and its
clients. To protect the interests of both the Company and its clients, all employees are required
to read and sign an Employee Confidentiality and Assignment of Inventions Agreement (“Proprietary
Agreement”) prior to beginning employment. A copy of this agreement is enclosed. Please sign it
and return it along with your signed copy of this letter.

No Conflict with Prior Agreements

Similarly, you may have confidential or proprietary information from a prior employer that should
not be used or disclosed to anyone at Yahoo!. Therefore, Yahoo! requests that you read, complete,
and bring with you on your first day of employment, the enclosed Proprietary Information
Obligations Checklist to this effect. In addition, Yahoo! requests that you comply with any
existing and/or continuing contractual obligations that you may have with your former employers.

Noncompetition

You agree that, during your employment with Yahoo! you will not engage in, or have any direct or
indirect interest in any person, firm, corporation or business (whether as an employee, officer,
director, agent, security holder, creditor, consultant, partner or otherwise) that is competitive
with the business of Yahoo!, including, without limitation, any then-current activities relating to
providing Internet navigational products or services and any then-current activities providing
search, e-mail, chat, e-commerce, instant messaging, content (e.g., music, video), ISP (e.g.,
connectivity, bandwidth or storage) or other Internet-based delivery or functionality.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, you may own not more than 1% of the securities of any
company whose securities are publicly traded.

At-will Employment

Please understand that this letter does not constitute a contract of employment for any specific
period of time, but will create an “employment at will” relationship that may be terminated at any
time by you or Yahoo!, with or without cause or with or without advance notice. Your signature at
the end of this letter confirms that no promises or agreements that are contrary to our at-will
relationship have been committed to you during any of your pre-employment discussions with Yahoo!,
and that this letter, along with the Proprietary Agreement, contains our complete agreement
regarding the terms and conditions of your employment and supersedes any and all prior agreements,
promises, or representations with respect to your employment by Yahoo! whether written or oral,
express or implied. The at-will nature of the employment relationship may not be modified or
amended except by written agreement signed by Yahoo!’s SVP Human Resources and you.

Arbitration

Our signatures on this letter also confirm our mutual agreement that any disputes or controversies,
including but not limited to claims of harassment, discrimination and wrongful termination, shall
be settled by binding arbitration under the American Arbitration Association Rules for the
Resolution of Employment Disputes. This agreement is enforceable under the Federal Arbitration

last employed by Yahoo!.

We hope for an early acceptance of this offer, however, it will remain open until the close of
business on 05/18/2007. Please understand that this offer is contingent upon approval of the Board
or Directors and the Compensation Committee and successful completion of your background

Exhibit 10.59

IRVINE SENSORS CORPORATION

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

(STOCK SETTLED)

     This STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ___,
___(the “Effective Date”), is between Irvine Sensors Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”) and ___, an individual resident of ___(“Participant”). This
Agreement is granted under the Irvine Sensors Corporation 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
and is subject to the terms of that Plan. This Agreement represents the Company’s unfunded and
unsecured promise to issue common stock of the Company, $0.01 par value (“Shares”) at a future date
based on appreciation in the market value of such Shares from the date of this Agreement, subject
to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan.

     1. Award. The Company hereby grants Participant stock appreciation rights (the “SAR”) with respect to
___shares of Common Stock (the “Award”). The initial value of the SAR is $  per share (the
“Grant Price”). The Award represents the right to receive the Shares only when, and with respect
to the number of Shares to which, the Award has vested (the “Vested Shares”).The Award is subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan. A copy of the Plan will
be furnished upon request of Participant. The SAR shall terminate at the close of business ten
(10) years from the Effective Date.

     2. Vesting. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the SAR awarded to
Participant pursuant to this Agreement shall vest and may be exercised by Participant with respect
to the number of Vested Shares set forth in the following schedule:

	 	 	 
	 	 	Percentage of Shares with
	On or after Each of	 	Respect to Which the SAR Is
	the Following Dates	 	Exercisable
	 
	 	 
	 
	 	 
	 
	 	 
	 
	 	 
	 
	 	 
	 
	 	 

     Notwithstanding the provisions set forth above in this Section 2, (i) in the event of
termination of Participant’s employment with or Service to the Company as a result of Participant’s
death or Permanent Disability while in the employ or Service of the Company, the next vesting date
for the SAR, as set out above, shall accelerate by twelve (12) months as of such date of
termination; and (ii) if, after the initial vesting date set forth above, Participant ceases to be
an employee or provide Service by reason of Ordinary Retirement prior to the vesting of the SAR under Sections 2 or 6 hereof, then the vesting of the SAR, as set out above, shall
accelerate in full as of such date of Ordinary Retirement. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Ordinary Retirement” shall mean the retirement of the Participant on a date upon which, if the
Participant is an employee, the sum of the Participant’s age and number of years of employment with
the Company equals or exceeds eighty-five (85) years or, if the Participant is a non-employee
director, the number of years of Service to the Company exceeds five (5) years.

 

 

     3. Exercise of SAR after Death or Termination of Employment or Service. The SAR shall terminate and may no longer be exercised if Participant ceases to be employed
by or provide Service to the Company or its Affiliates, except that:

     (a) If Participant’s employment or Service shall be terminated for any reason,
voluntary or involuntary, other than for “Misconduct” (as defined in Section 3(e)) or
Participant’s death or Permanent Disability, Participant may at any time within a period of
three (3) months after such termination exercise the SAR to the extent the SAR was
exercisable by Participant on the date of the termination of Participant’s employment or
Service.

     (b) If Participant’s employment is terminated for Misconduct, the SAR shall be
terminated as of the date of the act giving rise to such termination.

     (c) If Participant shall die while the SAR is still exercisable according to its terms,
or if employment or Service is terminated because of Participant’s Permanent Disability
while in the employ or Service of the Company and Participant shall not have fully exercised
the SAR, such SAR may be exercised at any time within twelve (12) months after Participant’s
death or date of termination of employment or Service for such Permanent Disability by
Participant, personal representatives, administrators or guardians of Participant, as
applicable, or by any person or persons to whom the SAR is transferred by will or the
applicable laws of descent and distribution, to the extent of the full number of Vested
Shares Participant was entitled to purchase under the SAR on (i) the earlier of the date of
death or termination of employment or Service or (ii) the date of termination for such
Permanent Disability, as applicable.

     (d) Notwithstanding the above, in no case may the SAR be exercised to any extent by
anyone after the termination date of the SAR.

     (e) “Misconduct” shall mean (i) the commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement or
dishonesty by Participant, (ii) any unauthorized use or disclosure by such person of
confidential information or trade secrets of the Company (or of any Affiliate), or (iii) any
other intentional misconduct by such person adversely affecting the business or affairs of
the Company (or any Affiliate) in a material manner. However, if the term or concept has
been defined in an employment agreement between the Company and Participant, then Misconduct
shall have the definition set forth in such employment agreement. The foregoing definition
shall not in any way preclude or restrict the right of the Company (or any Affiliate) to
discharge or dismiss any Participant or other person in the Service of the Company (or any
Affiliate) for any other acts or omissions but such
other acts or omissions shall not be deemed, for purposes of the Agreement, to
constitute grounds for termination for Misconduct.

     4. Method of Exercise of SAR.

     (a) SARs may be exercised with respect to Vested Shares by delivery to the Company of a
written notice which shall state that Participant elects to exercise the SAR as to the number of
Vested Shares specified in the notice as of the date specified in the notice.

2

 

     (b) Subject to deduction as described in Section 4(c) for withholding, upon exercise of the
SAR, the Participant shall be entitled to receive a number of Shares (“Issued Shares”) for each
Vested Share with respect to which the SAR is exercised that is equal to (i) the excess of the Fair
Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise, over the Grant Price, divided by (ii) the Fair
Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise. The distribution to the Participant, or in the
case of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s legal representative, of Issued Shares shall
be evidenced by a stock certificate, appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly
authorized transfer agent of the Company, or other appropriate means as determined by the Company.
This SAR may be exercised only with respect to full shares and no fractional share of stock shall
be issued.

     (c) By signing this Agreement, Participant agrees that the Company may withhold from Issued
Shares due upon exercise of the SAR, or at its election from the Participant’s wages or other cash
compensation, all income tax (including federal, state and local taxes), social insurance, payroll
tax or other tax-related withholding (“Tax Related Items”) due from the Company or the subsidiary
that is the Participant’s actual employer. To the extent that the Company determines that it is
not feasible, or not permissible under applicable law, to withhold in Shares, then prior to the
issuance of Issued Shares as provided in Section 4(b) above, Participant shall pay, or make
adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Participant’s actual employer (in their
sole discretion) to satisfy all withholding obligations of the Company and/or the Participant’s
actual employer. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company or the Participant’s actual
employer to withhold all applicable Tax Related Items legally payable by Participant from
Participant’s wages or other cash compensation payable to Participant by the Company or the
Participant’s actual employer. Participant shall pay to the Company or to the Participant’s actual
employer any amount of Tax Related Items that the Company or the Participant’s actual employer may
be required to withhold as a result of Participant’s receipt of the Award, the vesting of the
Award, or exercise of the Award that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The
Company may refuse to deliver Issued Shares to Participant if Participant fails to comply with
Participant’s obligation in connection with the Tax Related Items as described herein.

     Regardless of any action the Company or the subsidiary of the Company that is Participant’s
actual employer takes with respect to any or all Tax Related Items, Participant acknowledges that
the ultimate liability for all Tax Related Items legally due by Participant is and remains
Participant’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the Participant’s actual employer (i) make
no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Related
Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the grant of the Award, the vesting of
Award, or the exercise of the Award; and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or
any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax Related Items.

3

 

     5. Additional Restrictions on Transfer of SAR». During the lifetime of Participant, the SAR shall be exercisable only by Participant and
shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, gifted, pledged, hypothecated, or in any manner
encumbered or disposed of at any time prior to delivery of the Issued Shares in accordance with
Section 4, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

     6. Change in Control.

     (a) Immediately prior to the effective date of a “Change in Control” (as defined in Section
6(e)), this SAR shall vest and become exercisable for all of the Shares subject to the Award and
may be exercised for any or all of those Shares subject to the Award. However, this SAR shall not
vest and become exercisable on an accelerated basis if and to the extent: (i) this SAR is to be
assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or is otherwise to be continued in full
force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) this SAR is to
be replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the economic
value existing at the time of the Change in Control of the Shares subject to the Award for which
this SAR is not otherwise at that time exercisable and provides for subsequent payout of that
economic value no later than the time this SAR would have vested and become exercisable for those
Shares subject to the Award.

     (b) Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, this SAR shall terminate,
except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise
continued in effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.

     (c) If this SAR is assumed or otherwise continued in effect in connection with a Change in
Control, then this SAR shall be appropriately adjusted, upon such Change in Control, to apply to
the number and class of securities which would have been issuable to Participant in consummation of
such Change in Control had this SAR been exercised immediately prior to such Change in Control, and
appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Grant Price, provided the aggregate Grant Price
shall remain the same. To the extent that the holders of Common Stock receive cash consideration
for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation (or its
parent) may, in connection with the assumption of this SAR, substitute one or more shares of its
own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of
Common Stock in such Change in Control.

     (d) This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of the Company to adjust, reclassify,
reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate,
dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

     (e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean a change in ownership or
control of the Company effected through any of the following transactions: (i) a merger,
consolidation or other reorganization unless securities representing more than 50% of the total
combined voting power of the voting securities of the successor corporation are immediately
thereafter beneficially owned, directly or indirectly and in substantially the same proportion, by
the persons who beneficially owned the Company’s outstanding voting securities immediately prior to
such transaction; (ii) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
Company’s assets; or (iii) the acquisition, directly or indirectly by any

4

 

person or related group
of persons (other than the Company or a person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled
by, or is under common control with, the Company), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) of securities possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting
power of the Company’s outstanding securities pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made directly
to the Company’s stockholders.

     7. Capital Adjustments and Reorganization. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, reverse stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change
affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration,
appropriate adjustments shall be made to (a) the number and/or class of securities subject to this
SAR and (b) the Grant Price in order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or
enlargement of benefits hereunder.

     8. Miscellaneous.

     (a) Entire Agreement; Plan Provisions Control. This Agreement (and any addendum
hereto) and the Plan constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with regard to the
subject matter hereof. In the event that any provision of the Agreement conflicts with or is
inconsistent in any respect with the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control. All
decisions of the Committee with respect to any question or issue arising under the Plan or this
Agreement shall be and binding on all persons having an interest in this SAR. All capitalized
terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning
assigned to them in the Plan.

     (b) Rights of Stockholders. Prior to the exercise of the SAR and prior to receipt by
the Participant, Participant’s legal representative, or a permissible assignee, of Issued Shares as
provided in this Agreement, neither Participant, Participant’s legal representative nor a
permissible assignee shall be or have any of the rights and privileges of a stockholder of the
Company with respect to this Agreement or the Shares subject to the Award referenced in this
Agreement.

     (c) No Right to Employment. The grant of the SAR shall not be construed as giving
Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or if Participant is a director of the
Company or an Affiliate as giving the Participant the right to continue as a director of, the
Company or an Affiliate, nor will it affect in any way the right of the Company or an Affiliate to
terminate such employment or position at any time, with or without cause. In addition, the Company or an
Affiliate may at any time dismiss Participant from employment, or terminate the term of a director
of the Company or an Affiliate, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or this
Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on any person any legal or equitable right
against the Company or any Affiliate, directly or indirectly, or give rise to any cause of action
at law or in equity against the Company or an Affiliate. The SAR granted under this Agreement
shall not form any part of the wages or salary of Participant for purposes of severance pay or
termination indemnities, irrespective of the reason for termination of employment. Under no
circumstances shall any person ceasing to be an employee of the Company or any Affiliate be
entitled to any compensation for any loss of any right or benefit under this Agreement or the Plan
which such employee might otherwise have enjoyed but for termination of employment, whether

5

 

such
compensation is claimed by way of damages for wrongful or unfair dismissal, breach of contract or
otherwise. By participating in the Plan, Participant shall be deemed to have accepted all the
terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any rules and
regulations adopted by the Committee and shall be fully bound thereby.

     (d) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and this
Agreement, and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and this Agreement, shall be
determined in accordance with the internal laws, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of
Delaware.

     (e) Severability. If any provision of the Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or would disqualify the Agreement under any
law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to
conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the
determination of the Committee, materially altering the purpose or intent of the Plan or the
Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction or the Agreement, and the
remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

     (f) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall create or be
construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the
Company or any Affiliate and Participant or any other person. To the extent that any Person
acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such
right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured creditor of the Company or any Affiliate.

     (g) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the Agreement
solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way
material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Agreement or any provision
thereof.

     (h) Notices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to the Company under the
terms of this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at its principal corporate offices. Any
notice required to be given or delivered to Participant shall be addressed to Participant at the
address indicated below Participant’s signature line at the end of this Agreement or at such other
address as Participant may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice to the Company. Any
notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed
effective upon personal delivery or upon the third (3rd) day following deposit in the U.S.
mail, registered or certified, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party entitled to such
notice.

     (i) Conditions Precedent to Issuance of Issued Shares. Issued Shares shall not be
issued pursuant to the exercise of the SAR unless such exercise and the issuance and delivery of
the applicable Issued Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law,
including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state blue sky laws, the requirements of
any applicable Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Delaware General Corporation Law.
As a condition to the exercise of the purchase price relating to the

6

 

SAR, the Company may require
that the person exercising or paying the purchase price represent and warrant that the Issued
Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or
distribute such Issued Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation
and warranty is required by law.

     (j) Withholding. In order to provide the Company with the opportunity to claim the
benefit of any income tax deduction which may be available to it in connection with the Award, and
in order to comply with all applicable federal or state tax laws or regulations, the Company may
take such action as it deems appropriate to insure that, if necessary, all applicable federal or
state payroll, withholding, income or other taxes are withheld or collected from Participant.

     (k) Consultation With Professional Tax and Investment Advisors. Participant
acknowledges that the grant, exercise and vesting with respect to this SAR, and the sale or other
taxable disposition of the Issued Shares, may have tax consequences pursuant to the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or under local, state or international tax laws. Participant
further acknowledges that Participant is relying solely and exclusively on Participant’s own
professional tax and investment advisors with respect to any and all such matters (and is not
relying, in any manner, on the Company or any of its employees or representatives). Participant
understands and agrees that any and all tax consequences resulting from the SAR and its grant,
exercise and vesting, and the sale or other taxable disposition of the Issued Shares, is solely and
exclusively the responsibility of Participant without any expectation or understanding that the
Company or any of its employees or representatives will pay or reimburse Participant for such taxes
or other items.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and Participant have executed this Agreement on the date set
forth in the first paragraph.
