 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT[1] 
  
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 1, 2001, by and between RAINMAKER SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and MARTIN D. HERNANDEZ (“Employee”). 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 A.    The Company desires to continue to retain the services of Employee, and Employee desires to continue to be employed by the
Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 
  
 B.    Employee acknowledges that he has
had an opportunity to consider this Agreement and consult with independent advisors of his choosing with regard to the terms of this Agreement, and enters this Agreement voluntarily and with a full understanding of its terms. 

 
 AGREEMENT 
  
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the Company and Employee agree as follows: 
  
 1.    Employment and Term.     The Company agrees to employ Employee as Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, reporting directly to the Chief Executive
Officer, for an indefinite term commencing January 1, 2001 and continuing until terminated in accordance with Section 4 hereof. 
  
 (A)    Duties.    Employee will be responsible for coordinating and supervising all functional areas and operations of the Company (including, without limitation, client
sales and marketing, telesales, direct marketing, technology and administrative), as directed by the Chief Executive Officer. Employee shall devote his full time and attention, with undivided loyalty, to the business and affairs of the Company
during the term of this Agreement. Employee shall not engage in any other business or job activity during the term of this Agreement without the Chief Executive Officer’s prior written consent. Employee shall in good faith perform those duties
and functions as are required by his position and as are determined and assigned to him from time to time by the board of directors of the Company or its designees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that, to provide for unanticipated
events and flexibility, the Company shall have the right to modify from time to time the title and duties assigned to Employee, so long as such titles and duties are consistent with Employee’s position as Chief Operating Officer. 

 
 2.    Compensation.    Employee shall receive compensation from the Company
for his services hereunder determined as follows: 
 

	1
	 
	Confidential treatment has been requested for portions of this exhibit relating to personal information of the Employee. The copy filed herewith omits the
information subject to the confidentiality request. Omissions are designated as “***”. A complete version of this exhibit has been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 
 

  
 (A)    Base Salary. 
  
 (i)    The Company agrees to pay to Employee a base salary of $210,000 per year (“Base Salary”) payable
in accordance with the Company’s then current payroll practices. Adjustments to the Base Salary shall be within the discretion of the Board of Directors. 
  
 (ii)    A base salary reduction of more than ten percent in any one year without the consent of the employee may be considered a termination without
cause under Section 4(A)(ii). To trigger such a termination without cause, employee must, within thirty calendar days of the announced reduction, give the Board written notice that the reduction is viewed as a termination without cause. The
termination shall not take effect until thirty days from the date of the written notice in order to give the Board an opportunity to remedy. 
  
 (B)    Quarterly Bonus.    Employee and Company desire to create a performance-based bonus compensation arrangement. The Company agrees that Employee shall be eligible
for a quarterly bonus (the “Bonus”) determined in accordance with the formula established annually by the Board of Directors. The formula for 2001 is set forth below in Sections 2(B)(i)(ii) and (iii). If the Company meets its revenue and
net profit goals for 2001, then Employee will be paid a total Bonus amount of $210,000 (the “Target Annual Bonus Amount”). The Target Annual Bonus amount will be established annually by the Board. It is the intent of the Company and
Employee to use this performance-based bonus compensation arrangement to tie a potentially large portion of Employee’s total compensation to the financial performance of the Company. The Bonus formula and Target Annual Bonus amount will be
established by the Board each year by January 31 and may be adjusted from time to time during the year. A reduction of the Target Annual Bonus Amount of more than fifty percent in any one year without the consent of the employee may be considered a
termination without cause under Section 4(A)(ii). To trigger such a termination without cause, employee must, within thirty calendar days of the announced reduction, give the Board written notice that the reduction is viewed as a termination without
cause. The termination shall not take effect until thirty days from the date of the written notice in order to give the Board an opportunity to remedy. 
  
 (i)    Revenue Target.     Fifty percent (50%) of the Bonus amount to be paid to Employee in 2001 shall be based upon
whether the Company meets its quarterly revenue goals, as determined by the Company and approved by the Company’s board of directors (the “Revenue Bonus”). If the Company meets but does not exceed each of its quarterly revenue goals,
then the total annual Revenue Bonus amount available to Employee shall be $105,000, paid quarterly; however, this total annual Revenue Bonus amount may be lesser or greater in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the
Company meets its quarterly revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid one hundred percent (100%) of the quarterly Revenue Bonus amount. This calculation would result in Employee receiving a quarterly Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to
$26,250 (the “Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount”). 
  
 (a)    If the Company
Exceeds Revenue Target.     If the Company exceeds its revenue goal for a given quarter, then Employee shall be paid a Revenue Bonus for
 
 

 2 

 
that quarter calculated on a percentage basis equal to the percentage by which the Company exceeds its quarterly revenue goal. For example, if the Company exceeds its quarterly revenue goal by
twenty percent (20%), then the Revenue Bonus amount due Employee for that quarter would be equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount. This calculation would result in Employee receiving a quarterly
Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $31,500 (i.e., $26,250 x 120% = $31,500). There is no limit on the quarterly Revenue Bonus amount that Employee may earn in a given quarter. 
  

(b)    If the Company Does Not Meet its Revenue Target.     If the Company does not meet its revenue goal for a
given quarter, then Employee shall be paid a Revenue Bonus for that quarter calculated as follows: 
  
 (1) In
order for Employee to be paid any portion of the Revenue Bonus applicable to that quarter, the Company must achieve at least eighty percent (80%) of its revenue goal for that quarter. If the Company fails to achieve quarterly revenues equal to at
least eighty percent (80%) of the revenue goal for that quarter, then Employee shall not be paid any Revenue Bonus for that quarter. 
  
 (2) If the Company achieves quarterly revenues equal to eighty percent (80%) of that quarter’s revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid a quarterly Revenue Bonus for that quarter equal to fifty percent
(50%) of the Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount. This calculation would result in Employee receiving a quarterly Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $13,125 (i.e., $26,250 x 50% = $13,125). 
  
 (3) If the Company achieves quarterly revenues equal to an amount between eighty percent (80%) and one hundred percent (100%) of that
quarter’s revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid a quarterly Revenue Bonus for that quarter that is determined by adding to the base fifty percent (50%) Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount an amount equal to two and one-half percent (2.5%)
of the Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount for each one percent (1%) increase in quarterly revenues above the eighty percent (80%) quarterly revenue minimum. For example: 
  
 (A) If the Company achieves quarterly revenues equal to eighty-one percent (81%) of that quarter’s revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid a quarterly Revenue
Bonus for that quarter equal to fifty-two and one-half percent (52.5%) of the Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount. This calculation would result in Employee receiving a quarterly Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $13,781.25
(i.e., $26,250 x 52.5% = $13,781.25). 
  
 (B) If the Company achieves quarterly revenues equal to
eighty-five percent (85%) of that quarter’s revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid a quarterly Revenue Bonus for that quarter equal to sixty-two and one-half percent (62.5%) of the Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount. This calculation
would result in Employee receiving a quarterly Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $16,406.25 (i.e., $26,250 x 62.5% = $16,406.25). 
 

 3 

  
 (C) If the Company achieves quarterly revenues equal to ninety percent (90%)
of that quarter’s revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid a quarterly Revenue Bonus for that quarter equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of the Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount. This calculation would result in Employee receiving a
quarterly Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $19,687.50 (i.e., $26,250 x 75% = $19,687.50). 
  
 (D)
If the Company achieves quarterly revenues equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of that quarter’s revenue goal, then Employee shall be paid a quarterly Revenue Bonus for that quarter equal to eighty-seven and one-half percent (87.5%) of the
Target Quarterly Revenue Bonus Amount. This calculation would result in Employee receiving a quarterly Revenue Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $22,968.75 (i.e., $26,250 x 87.5% = $22,968.75). 
  
 (ii) Net Income Target.    Fifty percent (50%) of the Bonus amount to be paid to Employee shall be based
upon whether the Company meets or exceeds its quarterly net income goals, as determined by the Company and approved by the Company’s board of directors (the “Net Income Bonus”). The total annual Net Income Bonus amount available to
Employee shall be $105,000, paid quarterly. In the event that the Company meets or exceeds its quarterly net income goal, then Employee shall be paid one hundred percent (100%) of the quarterly Net Income Bonus amount payable for that quarter. This
calculation would result in Employee receiving a quarterly Net Income Bonus payment for such quarter equal to $26,250 (the “Target Quarterly Net Income Bonus Amount”). Whether the Target Quarterly Net Income Bonus Amount is paid for a
particular quarter is entirely dependent on the Company’s net income for that quarter. If the Company does not meet its net income goal for that quarter, then (a) no Net Income Bonus shall be earned for that quarter, and (b) regardless of the
Company’s performance in future quarters or for the year, Employee shall not earn a Net Income Bonus for the quarter in which the Company did not meet its net income goal. 
  
 (iii) Rule of Construction.     In making the calculations required under Section 2(B) of this Agreement, (a) dollar amounts (for example,
revenues and net income) shall be rounded to the nearest $1000 (for example, $15,135,500 shall be rounded to $15,136,000), and (b) percentages shall be rounded to the nearest one-tenth of one percent (for example, 63.45% shall be rounded to 63.5%).

  
 3. Fringe Benefits     The Company agrees to provide Employee with the following fringe
benefits: 
  
 (A) Business Expense Reimbursement.     Employee shall be authorized to
incur reasonable business expenses in performing his duties under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, expenses for entertainment, long distance telephone calls, mobile phone use, lodging, meals, air fare, transportation and travel. The
Company will reimburse Employee for all such reasonable expenses upon presentation by Employee, from time to time, of an itemized account or other appropriate documentation of such expenses. 
 

 4 

  
 (B) Vacation.     Employee shall be earn four (4)
weeks of paid vacation during each year; provided, however, that the Company and Employee must mutually agree as to the time during any Employment Year when such vacation may be taken. 
  
 (C) Additional Benefits.     In addition to the foregoing, Employee shall be eligible to participate in benefit plans and policies provided
to other Company employees of similar status, on the terms and conditions existing, and as may be changed from time to time, for participation in those plans and policies. Among other things, the Company shall provide and pay for (i) term life
insurance coverage; long-term disability insurance for Employee and health and dental insurance for Employee and his dependents, and (ii) automobile allowances and expense reimbursement. The Company shall also pay the reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by Employee in obtaining estate planning advice by an estate planning professional. Employee shall also be eligible to participate in 401(k) and other savings or benefits plans provided by the Company. 
  
 (D) Membership on Outside Boards of Directors.     With the consent of the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, Employee may serve on the board of directors of organizations other than the Company; provided however, that such service on other boards of directors shall not in any way interfere with Employee’s performance of his duties for the
Company. Employee shall be entitled to retain all compensation paid to him in connection with his service on such other boards of directors. 
  
 4. Termination.    Either the Company or Employee may terminate Employee’s employment in accordance with the following provisions: 
  

(A) Termination by the Company.    The employment of Employee may be terminated by the Company for any reason or no reason, with or
without cause or justification, subject to the following: 
  
 (i) In the event that Employee’s employment is
terminated by the Company for cause, or due to death or Employee’s inability to properly perform his duties by reason of incapacity for a period of more than one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days, the Company’s total liability to
Employee or his heirs shall be limited to payment of Employee’s Base Salary and benefits through the effective date of termination, as set by the Company, and Employee shall not be entitled to any further compensation or benefits provided under
this Agreement (but without limiting any other benefits to which Employee or his estate may be entitled under the Company’s employee benefit plans). 
  
 (a) Cause for termination shall include, but shall not be limited to: (1) Employee’s conviction of, plea of nolo contendere to or commission of any felony or gross
misdemeanor; but only if such event significantly impairs the Employee’s ability to perform his duties under this Agreement; (2) any fraud, misrepresentation or gross misconduct by Employee against the Company; and (3) Employee’s breach of
this Agreement. 
  
 (ii) In the event Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for a
reason set forth in Section 4(A)(i), such termination will be 
 

 5 

 effective upon notice on the date specified by the Company, and the Company agrees to pay Employee an amount equal to one and one
quarter (1 1/4) times Employee’s Base Salary and Target Annual Bonus Amount for the year, payable in fifteen (15) equal monthly payments. The Company also agrees to pay the costs of continued health insurance for Employee and his dependents
under COBRA for twelve (12) months after Employee’s effective date of termination. The Company further agrees that upon such termination of employment without cause, option shares then held by Employee shall continue to vest for fifteen (15)
months. 
  
 (B)    Termination by Employee.    If Employee’s
employment with the Company is terminated by Employee for any reason, Employee shall be entitled only to his Base Salary and benefits earned through the date of termination, and shall not be entitled to any further compensation or benefits pursuant
to this Agreement (but without limiting any other benefits to which Employee may be entitled as are provided by the Company’s employee benefit plans for similarly situated people). Employee agrees to give the Company at least thirty (30) days
prior written notice of termination of his employment. 
  
 (C)    Change in
Control.    In the event of a Change in Control that results in a material reduction in Employee’s position or responsibilities within the Company, then Employee shall receive an immediate payment of a sum equal to one
and one-half (1.5) times the Base Salary and Target Annual Bonus Amount and all option shares then held by Employee and not otherwise vested shall immediately vest in full; provided however, that with respect to non-qualified option shares, the
Employee shall have not less than twelve (12) months to exercise such options. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall be defined as follows: (i) a sale or other transfer of over fifty percent (50%) of the shares of the
Company; (ii) a merger or other combination of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity; or (iii) a sale or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. 
  
 5.    Maintenance of Confidentiality.    Employee acknowledges that, pursuant to his
employment with the Company, he will necessarily have access to trade secrets and information that is confidential and proprietary to the Company in connection with the performance of his duties. In consideration for the disclosure to Employee of,
and the grant to Employee of access to such valuable and confidential information and in consideration of his employment, Employee shall comply in all respects with the provisions of this section of the Agreement. 
  
 (A)    Nondisclosure.    During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, Confidential
Information of the Company of which Employee gains knowledge during the Employment Period or prior thereto in connection with his hiring shall be used by Employee only for the benefit of the Company in connection with Employee’s performance of
his employment duties, and Employee shall not, and shall not allow any other person that gains access to such information in any manner or form, disclose, communicate, divulge or otherwise make available, or use, any such information, other than for
the immediate benefit of the Company and without the prior written consent of the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means information not generally known to the public and which is proprietary to
the Company and relates to the Company’s existing or reasonably foreseeable business or operations, including but not limited to trade secrets, business 
 

 6 

 plans, advertising or public relations strategies, financial information, budgets, personnel information, customer information and
lists, and information pertaining to research, development, manufacturing, engineering, processing, product designs (whether or not patented or patentable), purchasing and licensing, and may be embodied in reports or other writings or in blue prints
or in other tangible forms such as equipment and models. Employee will refrain from any acts or omissions that would jeopardize the confidentiality or reduce the value of any the Company’s Confidential Information. 
  
 (B)    No Solicitation.    During the Employment Period and during any period Employee
is receiving compensation from the Company, Employee agrees not directly or indirectly to solicit, induce or attempt to solicit or induce any employee of the Company to terminate his or her employment with the Company in order to become employed by
any other person or entity. 
  
 (C)    Non-Competition.    During
the term of his employment and any period for which Employee is receiving payment from the Company under this Agreement, Employee shall not, without the Company’s prior written consent, engage or participate, either indirectly or as an
employee, consultant or principal, partner, agent, trustee, officer or director of a corporation, partnership, or other business entity, in any business in which the Company is primarily and directly engaged. It is agreed that this provision does
not apply to an investment by Employee in any mutual fund or to any ownership of any stock of less than ten percent (10%) of any publicly traded corporation. After termination of employment, Employee shall not, without the Company’s prior
written consent, engage or participate, either indirectly or as an employee, consultant or principal, partner, agent, trustee, officer or director of a corporation, partnership, or other business entity, in any business that would lead to the
inevitable disclosure of the Company’s confidential or propriety trade secret information. 
  
 (D)    Injunctive Relief.    Employee expressly agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 5 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company and its legitimate business interests,
and to prevent the unauthorized dissemination of Confidential Information to competitors of the Company. Employee also agrees that the Company will be irreparably harmed and that damages alone cannot adequately compensate the Company if there is a
violation of this Section 5 by Employee, and that injunctive relief against Employee is essential for the protection of the Company. Therefore, in the event of any such breach, it is agreed that, in addition to any other remedies available, the
Company shall be entitled as a matter of right to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, plus attorneys’ fees actually incurred for the securing of such relief. Furthermore, Employee agrees that the Company shall not be
required to post a bond or other collateral security with the court if the Company seeks injunctive relief. To the extent any provision of this Section 5 is deemed unenforceable by virtue of its scope or limitation, Employee and the Company agree
that the scope and limitation provisions shall nevertheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in such jurisdiction where enforcement is sought. 
  
 6.    Notices.    Any notice which either party may wish or be required to give to the
other party pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either personally served or deposited in the United States mail, registered or certified and with proper postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

 9Prepared by R.R. Donnelley Financial -- Key Employee Retention and Severence Plan

  
 Exhibit 10.12 
 KEY
EMPLOYEE RETENTION AND SEVERANCE PLAN 
  
 Adopted January 22, 2002 
  
 This Key Employee Retention and Severance Plan (this “Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors of Vitria Corporation (the “Company”) at a meeting held in
Sunnyvale, California on January 22, 2002. 
  
 BACKGROUND OF THE PLAN 
  
 The Company draws upon the knowledge, experience and objective advice of its key executives in order to manage its business for the benefit of the Company’s stockholders.

  
 Due to the widespread awareness of the possibility of mergers, acquisitions and other strategic alliances, change of control is
increasingly an issue in competitive recruitment and retention efforts. 
  
 The Company recognizes that a change of control or
other event that could substantially change the nature and structure of the Company, the resulting uncertainty regarding the consequences of such an event could adversely affect the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate its
executives and key employees. 
  
 The Company initiated a project in mid-summer 2001, to evaluate existing Company plans and
policies, industry practices and possible standard approaches to the retention and severance of key executives and directors in the event of a change of control of the Company. 
  
 On January 22, 2002, the Retention Plan was approved and ratified by the Company’s Board of Directors. 
  

	1.
	 
	GENERAL 
 

  
 1.1    Defined terms.    Capitalized terms used in this Plan shall have the meanings set forth in section 4, unless the context clearly requires a different meaning. 
  
 1.2    Purpose.    The purpose of this Plan is to aid the Company in attracting, retaining and motivating
its Executives by providing specified compensation and benefits in the event of a Change of Control and/or a Covered Termination. 
  
 1.3    No employment agreement.    This Plan does not obligate the Company to continue to employ an Executive for any specific period of time, or in any specific role or geographic location.
Subject to the terms of any applicable written employment agreement between Company and an Executive, the Company may assign an Executive to other duties, and either the Company or Executive may terminate Executive’s employment at any time for
any reason. 
  

	2.
	 
	TERMINATION UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL 
 

  
 2.1    Basic severance compensation.    In the event of an Executive’s Covered Termination, Executive shall be entitled to the basic severance compensation described below. 

 
 2.1.1    Salary.    All base salary and accrued vacation earned through the
date of Executive’s termination of employment shall be paid to Executive. 
  
 2.1.2    Expense reimbursement.    Within thirty (30) days of submission of proper expense reports, the Company shall reimburse an Executive for all expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred
by Executive in connection with the business of the Company prior to Executive ‘s termination of employment. 
  
 2.1.3    Employee benefits.    Executive shall not receive any benefits under the Company’s benefit plans and policies other than those to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the

 1 

  
 2.2    Cash severance benefits.    In the event
of an Executive’s Covered Termination, such Executive shall be entitled to the additional severance benefits described below. 
  
 2.2.1    Prorated bonus payment.    Such Executive shall receive his or her target bonus or incentive payment for the year in which termination occurs, prorated based on
the number of days elapsed during such year prior to the date of termination. 
  
 2.2.2    Cash severance payment.    A lump sum cash severance payment shall be made to each such Executive in the amount of 100% of annual base salary (as in effect on the date of the Change of
Control or on the date of termination, whichever is higher). All cash severance payments made under this section 2.2 shall be reduced by applicable federal and state withholding taxes, and paid upon the later of (i) the date of the Change of Control
or (ii) thirty (30) days following such Executive’s Covered Termination. 
  
 2.3    Acceleration of
Incentive Plan Awards. 
  
 2.3.1    Acceleration at Covered Termination for
Executives.    All outstanding stock options granted and restricted stock or performance shares issued by the Company prior to the Change of Control to an Executive who suffers a Covered Termination shall have their vesting
accelerated by the greater of one year or the length of service of Executive, so as to be vested to such additional extent on the later of (i) the date of the Change of Control or (ii) the date of such Covered Termination. 
  
 2.3.2    Acceleration upon non-assumption in a Change of Control.    If there is a
Change of Control transaction in which outstanding stock options granted and restricted stock or performance shares issued by the Company to any Executive prior to the transaction are not fully assumed by the Successor, or replaced by fully
equivalent substitute options, restricted stock or performance shares, then, in lieu of the provisions of Section 2.3.1 above (1) all such options and restricted stock or performance shares shall have their vesting fully accelerated so as to be 100%
vested on the date immediately prior to the effective date of the Change of Control, and (2) the Company shall provide reasonable prior written notice to Executive of (a) the date such unexercised options will terminate, and (b) the period during
which Executive may exercise the fully vested options. Alternatively, the Company may elect to deliver to Executive on the effective date of the Change of Control a cash payment equal to the difference between (i) the aggregate exercise price of
Executive ‘s unexercised options, restricted stock or performance shares, and (ii) the value of the consideration deliverable for an equivalent number of shares as a result of the Change of Control transaction. 
  
 2.4    Extended medical and dental benefits. 
  
 2.4.1    Benefit continuation for Executives in the U.S.    In the event of the Covered Termination of an Executive
residing within the United States and provided that such Executive elects continued coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Company shall pay the portion of premiums of Executive’s
group medical, dental and vision coverage, including coverage for Executive’s eligible dependents, that the Company paid prior to Executive’s Covered Termination for one (1) year following the date of Executive’s Covered Termination;
provided, however, that no such premium payments shall be made following the effective date of Executive’s coverage by a medical, dental or vision insurance plan of a subsequent employer. Each Executive shall be required to notify the
Company immediately if Executive becomes covered by a medical, dental or vision insurance plan of a subsequent employer. No provision of this Plan will affect the continuation coverage rules under COBRA, except that the Company’s payment of any
applicable insurance premiums during the one year period following Executive’s Covered Termination will be credited as payment by Executive for purposes of Executive’s payments required under COBRA. Therefore, the period during which an
Executive may elect to continue the Company’s group medical coverage at his or her own expense under COBRA, the length of time during which COBRA coverage will be made available to Executive, and all other rights and obligations of Executive
under COBRA (except the obligation to pay insurance premiums that the Company pays during the one year period following Executive’s Covered Termination) will be applied in the same manner that such rules would apply in the absence of this Plan.
For purposes of this section 2.4.1, applicable premiums that will be paid by the Company during the COBRA continuation period shall not include any amounts payable by Executive under a Section 125 health care reimbursement plan, which amounts, if
any, are the sole responsibility of Executive. 
 

 2 

  
 2.4.2    Benefit continuation for non-U.S.
Executives.    In the event of the Covered Termination of an Executive residing outside of the United States, the Company shall continue, for one (1) year following such Executive’s Covered Termination, to pay that
amount, if any, that the Company paid prior to the Executive’s Covered Termination in order to continue health coverage for the non-U.S. Executive in the job location of such Executive prior to the Covered Termination to the extent such
continued coverage is permitted by applicable law and the applicable insurance policy.

	FEDERAL EXCISE TAX UNDER IRC SECTION 4999 
 

  
 If any payment or benefit Executive would receive in connection with a Change of Control from the Company or otherwise (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be equal to the Reduced Amount.
The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total amount, of the Payment,
whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax
basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment
equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order unless Executive elects in writing a different order (provided, however, that such election shall be subject to Company approval if made on or after the date on which the event
that triggers the Payment occurs): reduction of cash payments; cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock awards; reduction of employee benefits. In the event that acceleration of vesting of stock award compensation is to be reduced, such
acceleration of vesting shall be canceled in the reverse order of the date of grant of Executive’s stock awards unless Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation. 
  
 The accounting firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change of Control shall perform the foregoing calculations. If the
accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, the Company and Executive shall jointly appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm to make the
determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses the Accountants may reasonably charge in connection with the services contemplated by this section 3. 
  
 The accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and Executive within
fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which Executive’s right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by the Company or Executive) or such other time as requested by the Company or Executive. If the accounting firm
determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish the Company and Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will
be imposed with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive. 
  
 If, notwithstanding any reduction described in this section 3, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) determines that Executive is liable for the Excise Tax as a result of the
receipt of the Payment, then Executive shall be obligated to pay back to the Company, within thirty (30) days after a final IRS determination or in the event that Executive challenges the final IRS determination, a final judicial determination, a
portion of the payment equal to the “Repayment Amount.” The Repayment Amount with respect to the payment of benefits shall be the smallest amount, if any, as shall be required to be paid to the Company so that Executive’s net
after-tax proceeds with respect to any payment of benefits (after taking into account the payment of the Excise Tax and all other applicable taxes imposed on such payment) shall be maximized. The Repayment Amount with respect to the Payment shall be
zero if a Repayment Amount of more than zero would not result in Executive’s net after-tax proceeds with respect to the Payment being maximized. If the Excise Tax is not eliminated pursuant to this paragraph, Executive shall pay the Excise Tax.

 

 3 

  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this section 3, if (i) there is a reduction in the
Payment as described in this section 3.2, (ii) the IRS later determines that Executive is liable for the Excise Tax, the payment of which would result in the maximization of Executive’s net after-tax proceeds (calculated as if Executive’s
benefits previously had not been reduced), and (iii) Executive pays the Excise Tax, then the Company shall pay to Executive those benefits that were reduced pursuant to this section 3.2 contemporaneously or as soon as administratively possible after
Executive pays the Excise Tax so that Executive’s net after-tax proceeds with respect to the payment of benefits is maximized.

 Dear [Name]: 
  
 This letter sets forth the substance of the separation agreement (the

“Plan”). The terms of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference. 
  
 1.    SEPARATION.    Your last day as an employee of the Company will be [insert date] (the “Separation Date”). 
  

2.    ACCRUED SALARY AND PAID TIME
OFF.    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. You
are entitled to these payments regardless of whether or not you sign this Agreement. 
  
 3.    CONSULTING AGREEMENT.    The Company agrees to retain you, and you agree to make yourself available and to perform as a consultant under the terms specified
below. 
  
 (a)  Consulting Period.    The Company will engage you as a
consultant commencing on the Separation Date and continuing for a one (1) year period (the “Consulting Period”). 
  
 (b)  Consulting Services.    During the Consulting Period, you will make yourself available, by telephone or in person, at a mutually agreeable times, to provide consulting
services to the Company as reasonably requested by the Company, for up to twenty (20) hours per week. You agree to exercise the highest degree of professionalism and utilize your expertise and creative talents in performing these services. You agree
not to represent or purport to represent the Company in any manner whatsoever to any third party during the Consulting Period unless authorized by the Company in writing to do so.

information of the Company, except on behalf of the Company, you agree that: 

 
 Page 2 
 
  
 (1)  You will not directly or indirectly, whether as an officer, director, stockholder, partner, proprietor, associate, representative, consultant, or in any
capacity whatsoever engage in, become financially interested in, or be employed by any other person, corporation, firm, partnership or other entity whatsoever which is competitive with or which is reasonably anticipated to be competitive with the
business of the Company; provided, however, that you may own, as a passive investor, securities of any competitor corporation, so long as your direct holdings in any one such corporation shall not in the aggregate constitute more than one percent

does not restrain you from engaging in a lawful profession, trade or business of any kind. 
  
 4.    EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENTS.    You agree that, within thirty (30) days of the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement
