 Re: Amended and Restated Employment Terms 
  
 Dear Al: 
  
 This letter sets forth the terms of your employment at Openwave Systems Inc. (the “Company”) and memorializes that to which we previously agreed. This letter supersedes all prior agreements relating to the terms of your
employment, except for the Change of Control Severance Agreement dated October 12, 2001, between you and the Company (the “Change of Control Agreement”) and the Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement dated September 1, 2002
(the “Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement”). As we previously agreed, the terms set forth below are effective as of January 1, 2004. Capitalized terms used in this letter have the meanings set forth on the attached

  
 Your title will continue to be Senior Vice President, Worldwide Customer
Operations and you will continue to report to me. Your monthly base salary is $25,830 per month or $310,000 on an annualized basis. Under the 2004 Worldwide Customer Operations (WCO) Management Variable Pay Plan in effect for the period from January
1, 2004 through December 31, 2004, you are eligible for a quarterly bonus targeted at 25% of your annual base salary, but your actual bonus payment, if any, may be higher or lower based upon your achievement of your quarterly objectives and in
accordance with the terms of the WCO Management Variable Pay Plan. Your quarterly objectives shall be established by the CEO in consultation with you and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Any quarterly bonus amounts due shall be
paid within 45 days following the end of the corresponding quarter. 
  
 If your
employment is terminated other than for Cause before January 1, 2005, you will receive (a) severance payments equal to 12 months of your base salary (currently, equal to $310,000), (b) 12 months of target incentive pay, and (c) 12 months of COBRA
payments to maintain health insurance coverage as then in force for you and your immediate family members insured under the Company’s health insurance policy. If your employment is terminated other than for Cause, after January 1, 2005, you
will receive severance payments and COBRA benefits in accordance with the Executive Severance Policy as then in effect. 
  
 Severance benefits (excluding the payment of any of the remaining retention bonus payments listed above) payable under this letter agreement shall coordinate with any
severance, change of control, or termination benefits payable to you under any other agreement, policy, practice or arrangement of the Company to which you are entitled, including with the Change of Control Severance Agreement and the Executive
Severance Policy. This means that if you become entitled to cash payments, or any other benefits from the Company in connection with the occurrence of a change of control or the termination of your employment, then the severance benefits received by
you under this letter agreement shall be reduced by the like-kind (more specifically, cash severance payments based upon your base salary, cash severance based upon our target incentive compensation, and COBRA payments) benefits received by you from
the Company under such other plans, programs, arrangements or agreements (or vice versa, depending upon the order of their occurrence). 
  
 As an employee, you will also continue to be eligible to receive our standard employee benefits except for matters that this letter provides you with more valuable
benefits than the Company’s standard policies. 
  
 You should be aware that
your employment with the Company is for no specified period and constitutes “at will” employment. As a result, you are free to resign at any time, for any reason or for no reason. Similarly, the Company is free to conclude its employment
relationship with you at any time, with or without cause, subject to the severance obligations under this letter. 
  

 In consideration of the foregoing, you hereby reconfirm your obligations under the Confidentiality and Invention
Assignment Agreement. 
  
 Please review these terms to make sure they are
consistent with your understanding. If so, please send the original signed offer letter in the provided envelope to Doug Solomon no later than five days after your receipt of this letter.
