 Re: Separation Agreement 
 Dear Patrick: 

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) confirms the agreement between you and New Relic, Inc. (the “Company”)
concerning the terms of your voluntary resignation and separation from the Company and offers you the severance benefit we discussed in exchange for a release of claims. 

1. Separation Date. Your resignation date and your employment termination date will be July 1, 2015 (the “Separation
Date”). By signing below, you will also resign from your position of Chief Marketing Officer of the Company and from any other officer positions with the Company and all of its affiliated entities as of the Separation Date. You will be
expected to perform your current duties, transition your work load, and provide other transition assistance as requested by the Company from the date of this letter until the Separation Date. The Company will continue to pay you your regular base
salary and you will continue to participate in the employee benefit plans in which you are currently enrolled (subject to the terms and conditions of those benefit plans) through the Separation Date, subject to Sections 4 and 5 below. 

2. Accrued Compensation. On the Separation Date, the Company will pay you all accrued salary, and all accrued and unused vacation,
earned through the Separation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. In addition, the Company will pay you any earned incentive bonus for the fiscal quarter ending on June 30, 2015, in the amount and at the time such
payment would normally be paid to you under the terms of your bonus program. The payments in this paragraph are not contingent on signing this Agreement. 

3. Health Insurance. To the extent provided by the federal COBRA law or, if applicable, state insurance laws (collectively,
“COBRA”), and by the Company’s current group health insurance policies, you will be eligible to continue your group health insurance benefits at your own expense after the Separation Date. Later, you may be able to
convert to an individual policy through the provider of the Company’s health insurance, if you wish. You will be provided with a separate notice describing your rights and obligations under COBRA laws on or after the Separation Date. Your COBRA
rights are not contingent on signing this Agreement. 
 4. Equity Awards. Vesting of your outstanding stock options and any other
equity awards, if any (“Equity Awards”), will cease on the Separation Date. Except as provided in Section 5 below, your Equity Awards will continue to be governed by the terms of the applicable Equity Awards documents
and are not contingent on signing this Agreement.

 5. Severance Benefit. Although the Company is not otherwise obligated to do so, if you
timely return this fully signed and dated Agreement to the Company, and if you allow it to become effective, and if you comply fully with your obligations hereunder, and, if you sign the Separation Date Release attached hereto as
Exhibit A on or within twenty-one (21) days after the Separation Date, and allow that release to become effective, and provided you resign from all positions you then-hold with the Company and any subsidiaries, the Company will
amend your outstanding stock options, effective as of the Separation Date, such that you may exercise each of the vested stock options following your Separation Date until the earlier of (i) a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the
Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time), and (ii) January 15, 2016 (the “Option Amendment”). BY SIGNING THIS LETTER AGREEMENT, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY VESTED
STOCK OPTIONS THAT WERE INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS UNDER APPLICABLE TAX LAW AS OF THE DATE OF GRANT WILL CONVERT TO NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS AS A RESULT OF THE OPTION AMENDMENT. You further acknowledge and agree that you will be required to make
adequate provision for applicable income and employment tax withholdings in connection with the exercise of such nonstatutory stock options on and after that date. 

6. No Other Compensation or Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you have not earned, will
not earn and will not receive from the Company any additional compensation, severance, or benefits on or after the Separation Date, with the exception of any vested right you may have under the express terms of a written ERISA-qualified benefit plan
(e.g., 401(k) account). By way of example, you acknowledge that you will not continue to vest in or earn any additional bonus, equity, incentive compensation, or commissions after the Separation Date. 

7. Expense Reimbursements. You agree that, within thirty (30) days of the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented
expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement. The Company will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice. 

8. Return of Company Property. By no later than your Separation Date, you shall return to the Company all Company documents (and all
copies thereof) and other Company property in your possession or control, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, financial and operational information, customer lists and contact information, product and services information, research
and development information, drawings, records, plans, forecasts, reports, payroll information, spreadsheets, studies, analyses, compilations of data, proposals, agreements, sales and marketing information, personnel information, specifications,
code, software, databases, computer-recorded information, tangible property and equipment (including, but not limited to, computers, facsimile machines, mobile telephones, tables, handheld devices, and servers), credit cards, entry cards,
identification badges and keys; and any materials of any kind which contain or embody any proprietary or confidential information of the Company and all reproductions thereof in whole or in part and in any medium. You agree that you will make a
diligent search to locate any such documents, property and information within the timeframe

referenced above. In addition, if you have used any personally owned computer, server, or e-mail system to receive, store, review, prepare or transmit any confidential or proprietary data,
materials or information of the Company, then within five (5) business days after your Separation Date, you must provide the Company with a computer-useable copy of such information and then permanently delete and expunge such confidential or
proprietary information from those systems without retaining any reproductions (in whole or in part); and you agree to provide the Company access to your system, as requested, to verify that the necessary copying and deletion is done. Your timely
compliance with the provisions of this paragraph is a precondition to your receipt of the Option Amendment provided hereunder. 
 9.
Proprietary Information Obligations. You acknowledge and reaffirm your obligations under your signed Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B for your reference. 

10. Nondisparagement. You and the Company agree not to disparage one another in any manner reasonably likely to be harmful to each
other or each of our business, business reputations, or personal reputations. You will also similarly not disparage the Company’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders or agents, you and the Company may respond accurately and fully to
any request for information if required by legal process. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude you from describing your accomplishments and responsibilities while employed at the Company to a prospective employer or for purposes of professional
development. 
 11. No Admissions. The promises and payments in consideration of this Agreement shall not be construed to be an
admission of any liability or obligation by either party to the other party, and neither party makes any such admission. 
 12.
Cooperation and Assistance. You agree that you will not voluntarily provide assistance, information or advice, directly or indirectly (including through agents or attorneys), to any person or entity in connection with any claim or cause of
action of any kind brought against the Company, nor shall you induce or encourage any person or entity to bring such claims. However, it will not violate this Agreement if you testify truthfully when required to do so by a valid subpoena or under
similar compulsion of law. Further, you agree to voluntarily cooperate with the Company, if you have knowledge of facts relevant to any threatened or pending claim, investigation, audit or litigation against or by the Company, by making yourself
reasonably available without further compensation for interviews with the Company or its legal counsel, preparing for and providing truthful and accurate deposition and trial testimony. 

13. Release of Claims. 

(a) General Release. In exchange for the consideration provided to you under this Agreement to which you would not otherwise be
entitled, you hereby generally and completely release the Company, and its affiliated, related, parent and subsidiary entities, and its and their current and former directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys,
predecessors, successors, insurers, affiliates, and assigns (collectively, “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way related to
events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring prior to or on the date you sign this Agreement (collectively, “Released Claims”).

or proceeding. You represent and warrant that, other than the Excluded Claims, you are not aware of any claims you have or might have against any of the Released Parties that are not included in the Released Claims.

 14. Waiver of Unknown Claims. In giving the releases set forth in this Agreement,
which include claims which may be unknown to you at present, you acknowledge that you have read and understand Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the
creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.” You hereby expressly waive and
relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law or legal principle of similar effect in any jurisdiction with respect to your release of claims herein, including but not limited to the release of unknown and unsuspected claims.

 16. Miscellaneous. This Agreement, including Exhibit A
and Exhibit B, constitutes the complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between you and the Company with regard to the subject matter hereof. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation,
written or oral, other than those expressly contained herein, and it supersedes any other agreements, promises, warranties or representations concerning its subject matter. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in a writing signed by
both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. This Agreement will bind the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of both you and the Company, and inure to the benefit of both you and the Company, their heirs, successors
and assigns. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, this determination shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement and the provision in question shall be modified so as to be
rendered enforceable in a manner consistent with the intent of the parties insofar as possible under applicable law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of
law principles. Any ambiguity in this Agreement shall not be construed against either party as the drafter. Any waiver of a breach of this Agreement, or rights hereunder, shall be in writing and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any successive
breach or rights hereunder. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts which shall be deemed to be part of one original, and facsimile and electronic image signatures shall be equivalent to original signatures. 

If this Agreement is acceptable to you, please sign and date below within twenty-one (21) days, and send me the fully signed Agreement. The

 M/A-COM TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS HOLDINGS, INC. 

2012 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN 

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT 

Pursuant to your Restricted Stock Award Notice (the “Award Notice”) and this Restricted Stock Award Agreement (this
“Agreement”), M/A-COM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted you a Restricted Stock Award (the “Award”) under its 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) for the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock indicated in your Award Notice. Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the
Plan. 
 The details of the Award are as follows: 
  

	1.	Vesting and Settlement 

 The Award will vest and no longer be subject to forfeiture
according to the vesting schedule set forth in the Award Notice (the “Vesting Schedule”). Shares subject to the portion of the Award that has vested and is no longer subject to forfeiture according to the Vesting Schedule are
referred to herein as “Vested Shares.” Shares subject to the portion of the Award that has not vested and remains subject to forfeiture under the Vesting Schedule are referred to herein as “Unvested
Shares.” The Unvested Shares will vest (and to the extent so vested cease to be Unvested Shares remaining subject to forfeiture) in accordance with the Vesting Schedule (the Unvested and Vested Shares are collectively referred to herein
as the “Shares”). The Award will terminate and the Shares will be subject to forfeiture upon your Termination of Service as set forth in Section 2. 

 

	2.	Termination of Award upon Termination of Service 

 Unless the Plan Administrator
determines otherwise prior to your Termination of Service, upon your Termination of Service any portion of the Award that has not vested as provided in Section 1 will immediately terminate and all Unvested Shares shall immediately be forfeited
without payment of any further consideration to you. 
  

	3.	Securities Law Compliance 

 3.1 You represent and warrant that you (a) have
been furnished with a copy of the Plan and all information which you deem necessary to evaluate the merits and risks of receipt of the Award, (b) have had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the information received
about the Award and the Company, and (c) have been given the opportunity to obtain any additional information you deem necessary to verify the accuracy of any information obtained concerning the Award and the Company. 

3.2 You hereby agree that you will in no event sell or distribute all or any part of the Shares unless (a) there is an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws covering any such transaction involving the Shares or (b) the Company receives an opinion of your legal counsel (concurred in by legal counsel for the Company)
stating that such transaction is exempt from registration or the Company otherwise satisfies itself that such transaction is exempt from registration. You understand that the Company has no obligation to you to maintain any registration of the
Shares with the SEC and has not represented to you that it will so maintain registration of the Shares. 
 3.3 You confirm that you
have been advised, prior to your receipt of the Shares, that neither the offering of the Shares nor any offering materials have been reviewed by any 

 
administrator under the Securities Act or any other applicable securities act (the “Acts”) and that the Shares cannot be resold unless they are registered under the Acts
or unless an exemption from such registration is available. 
 3.4 You hereby agree to indemnify the Company and hold it harmless
from and against any loss, claim or liability, including attorneys’ fees or legal expenses, incurred by the Company as a result of any breach by you of, or any inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty or statement made by you in this
Agreement or the breach by you of any terms or conditions of this Agreement. 
  

	4.	Consideration for Award 

 The Company acknowledges your payment of full consideration for
the Award in the form of services previously rendered and/or services to be rendered hereafter to the Company (in either case, in an amount equal to no less than the aggregate par value of the Shares). 

 

	5.	Transfer Restrictions 

 Unvested Shares shall not be sold, transferred, assigned,
encumbered, pledged or otherwise disposed of, whether voluntarily or by operation of law. 
  

	6.	Section 83(b) Election for Award 

 You understand that under Section 83(a) of
the Code, the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Unvested Shares on the date the forfeiture restrictions lapse over the purchase price, if any, paid for such Shares will be taxed, on the date such forfeiture restrictions lapse, as ordinary
income subject to payroll and withholding tax and tax reporting, as applicable. For this purpose, the term “forfeiture restrictions” means the right of the Company to receive back any Unvested Shares upon your Termination of Service. You
understand that you may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at the time the Unvested Shares are acquired, rather than when and as the Unvested Shares cease to be subject to the forfeiture restrictions. Such election (an
“83(b) Election”) must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the Grant Date of the Award. Even if the Fair Market Value of the Unvested Shares on the Grant Date equals the purchase price,
if any, (and thus no tax is payable), you must file the election within the 30-day period to avoid the risk of adverse tax consequences in the future. 

You understand that there is a risk the Internal Revenue Service might challenge the Company’s determination of the Fair Market Value of
the Shares, in which case you may be deemed to have received more ordinary income than originally estimated. You also understand that (a) you will not be entitled to a deduction for any ordinary income previously recognized as a result of the
83(b) Election if the Unvested Shares are subsequently forfeited to the Company, and (b) the 83(b) Election may cause you to recognize more ordinary income than you would have otherwise recognized if the Internal Revenue Service determines that
the value of the Unvested Shares on the date the Shares are transferred is higher than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on that date as determined by the Company and/or the value of the Unvested Shares subsequently declines. 

THE FORM FOR MAKING AN 83(b) ELECTION IS ATTACHED TO THIS AGREEMENT AS EXHIBIT B. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT FAILURE TO FILE SUCH AN
ELECTION WITHIN THE 30-DAY PERIOD MAY RESULT IN THE RECOGNITION OF ORDINARY INCOME BY YOU AS THE FORFEITURE RESTRICTIONS LAPSE. You further understand that an additional copy of such election form should be
filed with your federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. 

 
You acknowledge that the foregoing is only a summary of the federal income tax laws that apply to the receipt of the Unvested Shares under this Agreement and does not purport to be complete.
YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE COMPANY HAS DIRECTED YOU TO SEEK INDEPENDENT ADVICE REGARDING THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE CODE, THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU MAY RESIDE, AND THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DEATH. 
 You agree to execute and deliver to the Company with this Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and
Statement of Decision Regarding Section 83(b) Election attached hereto as Exhibit A. You further agree that you will execute and deliver to the Company with this Agreement a copy of the 83(b) Election attached hereto as
Exhibit B if you choose to make such an election. 
  

	7.	Rights as Stockholder 

 You will be recorded as a stockholder of the Company and will
have, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares. 
  

	8.	Independent Tax Advice 

 You acknowledge that determining the actual tax consequences to
you of receiving or disposing of the Shares may be complicated. These tax consequences will depend, in part, on your specific situation and may also depend on the resolution of currently uncertain tax law and other variables not within the control
of the Company. You are aware that you should consult a competent and independent tax advisor for a full understanding of the specific tax consequences to you of receiving or disposing of the Shares. Prior to executing this Agreement, you either
have consulted with a competent tax advisor independent of the Company to obtain tax advice concerning the receipt or disposition of the Shares in light of your specific situation or you have had the opportunity to consult with such a tax advisor
but chose not to do so. 
  

	9.	Withholding 

 You are ultimately responsible for all taxes arising in connection with
this Award (e.g., at vesting and/or upon receipt of the Shares), including any domestic or foreign tax withholding obligation required by law, whether national, federal, state or local, including FICA or any other social tax obligation (the
“Tax Withholding Obligation”), regardless of any action the Company or any Related Company takes with respect to any such Tax Withholding Obligation that arises in connection with this Award. As a condition to the issuance of
Shares pursuant to this Award, you agree to make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the payment of the Tax Withholding Obligation that arises upon receipt of the Shares or otherwise. The Company may refuse to issue any Shares to you until
you satisfy the Tax Withholding Obligation. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you hereby grant the Company and any Related Company the right to deduct without notice from salary or other amounts payable to you, an amount sufficient to satisfy
the Tax Withholding Obligation. 
  

	10.	General Provisions 

 10.1 Assignment. The Company may assign its forfeiture rights
at any time, whether or not such rights are then exercisable, to any person or entity selected by the Company’s Board of Directors. 

 10.2 No Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be valid unless in
writing and signed by the person against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced, nor will failure to enforce any right hereunder constitute a continuing waiver of the same or a waiver of any other right hereunder.
