Exhibit 10.2

MakeMusic, Inc.

Executive Incentive Compensation Plan

ARTICLE 1. PURPOSE

1.1 Annual Incentive Compensation. The purpose of the MakeMusic, Inc. Executive Incentive
Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide incentives and rewards to certain key employees of
MakeMusic, Inc. (the “Company”) in the form of annual incentive compensation based on the
achievement of certain performance objectives, as well as individual performance.

ARTICLE 2. ADMINISTRATION

2.1 Administration and Delegation of Authority. The Plan shall be administered by the
Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors, which shall consist
of not less than two (2) members of the Board of Directors, each of whom is an “independent
director” within the meaning of NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15). No member of such Committee shall
participate in any decisions concerning the payments to be made to him or her, or other matters
relating to his or her benefits hereunder. All actions of the Committee shall be determined by a
majority of its members at a meeting at which a quorum is present, or by a majority of all members
in writing signed by all members, whether or not voting in favor of such determination. A majority
of all of the members shall constitute a quorum.

2.2 Powers. Except as otherwise provided, and subject to the provisions of the Plan, the
Committee shall have full power and authority to administer and interpret the Plan, to adopt and
revise rules, regulations and guidelines relating to the Plan and, to make all other determinations
necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. Decisions and determinations by the
Committee shall be final and binding on all parties.

ARTICLE 3. PARTICIPATION

3.1 Selection of Participants and Plan Entry. The Committee shall, from time to time,
designate those key employees who shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. Such designation
shall not be determinative of whether the employee is an “officer” or “executive officer” for
purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Any key employee selected to
participate in the Plan shall continue to participate until otherwise determined by the Committee.
The Committee has discretion to change its selection of participants. The Committee may, in its
sole discretion, designate certain key employees as being ineligible to participate in the Plan;
provided, however, that the discontinuation of a key employee’s eligibility shall not alter, impair
or reduce the value of any annual incentive compensation earned by such key employee without his or
her consent. Hereafter, a key employee selected to participate in the Plan shall be referred to as
a “Participant.”

ARTICLE 4. INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PAYMENTS

4.1 Performance Objectives. On a date prior to or as soon as practicable after the
beginning of each fiscal year (the “Determination Date”), the Committee shall determine performance
objectives and the weighted values thereof. The performance objectives shall be any one, or a
combination of, (i) total revenue, (ii) net income, (iii) shareholders’ equity, (iv) earnings per

- 1 -

 

share, (v) return on equity, (vi) return on assets, (vii) asset turns, (viii) total shareholder
return, (ix) net operating income, (x) cost controls, (xi) cash flow, (xii) increase in revenue,
(xiii) increase in share price or earnings, (xiv) return on investment, (xv) department or business
unit performance goals, (xvi) increase in market share, (xvii) product-specific revenue, (xviii)
operating margins, (xix) financial performance that exceeds the financial performance of the
Company’s peers in the industry, and (xx) individual performance goals, in all cases including, if
selected by the Committee and in its discretion, threshold, target and maximum performance levels.

4.2 Determination of Annual Incentive Compensation.

4.2.1 Determination of Incentive Compensation Components. On the Determination
Date, the Committee shall approve the components of each Participant’s annual incentive
compensation. Each Participant’s annual incentive compensation may be comprised of cash,
restricted stock, other equity awards, or a combination thereof, subject to the limitations
on the maximum values of each component set forth in Sections 4.3 through 4.6 below. The
performance objectives, components of annual incentive compensation and the maximum values
thereof shall be communicated to each Participant as soon as administratively practicable
after the Determination Date. The components of a Participant’s annual incentive
compensation and the maximum values thereof may vary from fiscal year to fiscal year, and
such components and values also may vary from Participant to Participant.

4.2.2 Certification of Payout.

a. Total Value of Payout. The total value of incentive compensation earned
by a Participant shall depend upon the level of achievement of each performance
objective, provided that if threshold performance is not achieved for a particular
performance objective, the Participant will not receive incentive compensation for
that performance objective. After the completion of the fiscal year, and not later
than the fifteenth calendar day of the third month following the end of the fiscal
year during which the annual incentive compensation was earned, the Committee will
determine and certify in writing the degree to which the performance objectives have
been achieved and calculate each Participant’s earned incentive compensation. The
Committee may, in its discretion, increase or decrease the Participant’s maximum
annual incentive compensation.

b. Forfeiture of Earned Amount. If, prior to the last day of the fiscal
year, the Participant terminates employment with the Company for a reason other
than death or disability and without “Good Reason” (as defined below), or has been
terminated by the Company for “Cause” (as defined below), the Participant shall not
be entitled to annual incentive compensation for that year, provided that the
Committee may award all or a portion of the earned amount in its discretion. If the
Participant terminates employment with the Company prior to the last day of the
fiscal year due to death or “Disability” (as defined below), the Participant shall
be entitled to a prorated annual incentive compensation, based on the

- 2 -

 

number of days in the fiscal year that the Participant was employed, or such other
amount as the Committee determines in its discretion.

i. Good Reason. For purposes of this Plan, “Good Reason” means: (i)
a material change in the responsibility and status as the employment
responsibilities held by Participant; (ii) a reduction of Participant’s
annual base salary by more than 10% unless such reduction is part of a
general salary reduction for all employees of similar rank to the
Participant; (iii) the failure by the Company to obtain an assumption of its
obligations under this Plan by any successor to the Company; (iv) the
relocation of Participant’s place of employment by more than forty (40)
miles from the Participant’s place of employment during the preceding fiscal
year. For purposes of the foregoing, Participant shall not be considered to
have been assigned employment of lesser responsibility if Participant
manages, has control over, or serves in a similar position with a
subsidiary, division or operating unit of an acquiring entity that generates
revenues of comparable amounts to the revenues generated by the Company
before such acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the forgoing
events shall be considered “Good Reason” if it occurs in connection with the
Participant’s death or disability.

ii. Cause. For purposes of this Plan, “Cause” means: (i) failure of
Participant to (x) faithfully, diligently or competently perform the
material duties, requirements and responsibilities of his or her employment
as assigned by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer of Board of Directors,
or (y) take reasonable direction consistent with his or her position from
the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Board of Directors; or (ii)
Failure of Participant to comply with the material, reasonable policies,
regulations and directives of the Company as in effect from time to time; or
(iii) Any act or omission on the part of Participant which constitutes a
failure to comply with material provisions of his or her written employment
agreement, if any; or (iv) Any act or omission on the part of Participant
which is clearly and materially harmful to the reputations or businesses of
the Company, including, but not limited to, personal conduct of Participant
which is inconsistent with federal and state laws respecting harassment of,
or discrimination against, one or more of the Company’s employees; or (v)
Conviction of Participant of, or a guilty or nolo contendere plea by
Participant with respect to, any crime punishable as a felony.

iii. Disability. For purposes of this Section 4.2.2, “Disability”
shall mean a medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can
be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous
period of at least twelve (12) months and which renders the Participant
unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity, and shall be
established by the certificate of a medical doctor chosen by or satisfactory
to the Committee.

- 3 -

 

4.3 Cash Incentive.

4.3.1 Amount of Cash Incentive. If a Participant’s annual incentive compensation
includes a cash component, the Committee shall set the maximum value of such component (the
“Maximum Cash Value”) on the Determination Date, provided that in no event shall a
Participant’s Maximum Cash Value exceed 100% of his or her base salary in effect at the end
of the fiscal year in which the award is earned. Each Participant’s total earned cash award
shall be the sum of his or her earned cash awards for each performance objective. For each
performance objective, a Participant’s earned cash award shall be equal to the product of
such Participant’s Maximum Cash Value, the percentage of target performance achieved and the
performance objective weight. No cash incentive shall be awarded for a particular
performance objective if threshold performance for such objective was not met or surpassed.

4.3.2 Limitation. To the extent the Company’s performance exceeds one hundred
percent (100%) of target performance for one or more performance objectives, the Committee
shall calculate the earned cash award for each such performance objective as though the
Company achieved exactly one hundred percent (100%) of the target.

4.3.3 Payment. Any cash portion of a Participant’s annual incentive compensation
shall be paid to the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s death to the
Participant’s estate) in a single lump-sum payment, as soon as administratively practicable
after the Committee certifies performance and calculates the award, but not later than the
fifteenth calendar day of the third month following the end of the fiscal year during which
the incentive compensation was earned.

4.4 Restricted Stock Award.

4.4.1 Maximum Restricted Stock Award. If a Participant’s maximum annual incentive
compensation includes a restricted stock component, the Committee shall set the maximum cash
value of such component (the “Maximum Restricted Stock Value”) on the Determination Date,
provided that in no event shall a Participant’s Maximum Restricted Stock Value exceed 100%
of his or her base salary in effect at the end of the fiscal year in which the award is
earned. The Committee shall calculate the number of shares of restricted stock that the
Participant will be eligible to earn by dividing the Maximum Restricted Stock Value by the
three-month average per share closing price of Company common stock from October 1 through
December 31 of the fiscal year preceding the year in which the award may be earned (the
“Maximum Restricted Stock Award”). Any fractional share amounts shall be rounded up.

4.4.2 Earned Restricted Stock Award. In connection with its determination and
certification of the degree to which the performance objectives have been achieved, the
Committee shall calculate the portion of the Maximum Restricted Stock Award that each
Participant has earned (the “Earned Restricted Stock Award”). Each Participant’s Earned
Restricted Stock Award shall be the sum of his or her earned restricted stock awards for
each performance objective. For each performance objective, the Committee shall calculate a
Participant’s earned restricted stock award by doubling the percentage by

- 4 -

 

which the Company’s performance has exceeded one hundred percent (100%) of the target
performance, and multiplying that figure by the Participant’s Maximum Restricted Stock Award
and the performance objective weight. Each Participant shall be awarded his or her Earned
Restricted Stock Award on the fifteenth calendar day of the third month following the end of
the fiscal year during which the incentive compensation was earned.

4.4.3 Risks of Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined in the Committee’s
discretion, each Participant’s Earned Restricted Stock Award shall be subject to forfeiture
if the Participant voluntarily terminates employment without “Good Reason” (as defined in
this Plan) or has been terminated by the Company for “Cause” (as defined in this Plan). The
risks of forfeiture as to twenty-five percent (25%) of each Participant’s Earned Restricted
Stock Award shall immediately lapse on the date of the award. The risks of forfeiture as to
the remaining seventy-five percent (75%) shall lapse in twenty-five percent (25%) increments
on the next three anniversary dates of the award.

4.5 Option Grant. If eighty percent (80%) of target performance is met or surpassed for all
performance objectives, the Committee shall have the authority to grant to Participants or such
other employees upon recommendation to the Committee by management options to purchase shares of
the Company’s common stock. Such awards will be granted in the sole discretion of the Compensation
Committee. The per-year aggregate number of shares underlying such option grants may not exceed two
and one-half percent (2.5%) of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of the date of the award
and shall be subject to the limitations contained in the Company’s 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, or
any new or amended version of such plan. The vesting terms and date of grant for any options
granted pursuant to this Section shall be at the discretion of the Committee.

4.6 Other Awards. The Committee has discretion to grant Participants such other awards as
it deems necessary or desirable. Such other awards may be in addition to or in lieu of cash,
restricted stock or option awards, provided that any equity awards are subject to the limitations
contained in the Company’s 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, or any amended version of such plan. Such
awards shall be available upon achievement of threshold performance for one or more performance
objectives.

ARTICLE 5. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

5.1 Nontransferability. No Participant (or the estate or heirs at law of any Participant)
shall have any right to assign, encumber or otherwise anticipate the right to receive payment
hereunder, and the value of the Participant’s annual incentive awards under the Plan shall not be
subject to garnishment, attachment or any other legal process by the creditors of any Participant
(or the estate or heirs at law of any Participant) hereunder.

5.2 Liability of Company. The Company shall have no liability in connection with the Plan
except to pay any annual incentive compensation in accordance with the terms of the Plan. The
Company has made no representations to any Participant with respect to the tax implications of any
transactions contemplated by the Plan. Each Participant shall obtain his or her own counsel to
advise the Participant with respect to the tax effect of the Plan.

- 5 -

 

5.3 Binding Effect. The Plan shall be binding upon the Participants and the Company and
their heirs, executors and assigns. The Company shall not be a party to any merger, consolidation
or reorganization unless and until its obligations under the Plan shall be expressly assumed by its
successor or successors.

5.4 Payment in Case of Incompetency. If, in the judgment of the Committee based upon facts
and information readily available to it, any person entitled to receive a payment hereunder is
incapable for any reason of personally receiving and giving a valid receipt for the payment of a
benefit, the Committee may cause such payment or any part thereof to be made to the duly appointed
guardian or legal representative of such person, or to any person or institution contributing to or
providing for the care and maintenance of such person, provided that no prior claim for said
payment has been made by a duly appointed guardian or legal representative of such person. The
Committee shall not be required to see to the proper application of any such payment made in
accordance with the provisions hereof, and any such payment shall constitute payment for the
account of such person and a full discharge of any liability or obligation of the Company.

5.5 Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all amounts payable
hereunder any state or federal taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such awards.
If the Company is unable to withhold such federal and state taxes, for whatever reason, the
Participant hereby agrees to pay to the Company an amount equal to the amount the Company would
otherwise be required to withhold under federal or state law.

5.6 Right to Terminate Employment. No employee or other person shall have any claim or
right to receive annual incentive awards under or otherwise participate in the Plan. Neither the
Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any employee any right to be
retained in the employment of the Company, interfere with the right of the Company to discharge any
employee at any time, give the Company the right to require an employee to remain in its employ, or
interfere with the employee’s right to terminate employment at any time.

5.7 Compliance with Applicable Laws. The Company and Participants intend that the Plan
comply with any applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to
time, and the regulations thereunder, with any applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, and with any applicable
provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. If, at a later date, these
provisions are construed in such a way as to make the Plan null and void, the Plan shall be given
effect in a manner that shall best carry this intention.

5.8 Notices. Any notice, election or form to be delivered pursuant to the Plan shall be
given in writing and delivered, personally or by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Company,
the Participant or any other person, as the case may be, at their last known address.

5.9 Headings. Headings or titles at the beginning of articles and sections are for
convenience of reference, shall not be considered a part of the Plan, and shall not influence its
construction.

- 6 -

 

5.10 Amendment and Termination. The Company, and only the Company, may alter, amend or
terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no amendment to the Plan may alter, impair
or reduce the value of a Participant’s annual incentive compensation to the extent earned prior to
the effective date of such amendment, without the written consent of such Participant.

5.11 Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan shall be construed and enforced according
to the laws of the State of Minnesota to the extent that such laws are not preempted by any
applicable federal law.

- 5 -

 

     (d) The acquisition, without prior approval by resolution
adopted by the Board, of direct or indirect beneficial ownership (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of
securities of MakeMusic representing, in the aggregate, fifty percent
(50%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of
MakeMusic’s then-issued and outstanding securities by any person or
entity or by a group of associated persons or entities acting in
concert; provided, however, that a Change of Control will not be
deemed to occur if such acquisition is initiated by the Executive or
an entity in which the Executive owns fifty percent (50%) or more of
the total combined voting power of all classes of such entity’s
securities, or if the Executive or such entity is a member of the
group of associated persons or entities acting in concert.

     (ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean any
individual, corporation, partnership, trust or other entity which owns,
directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined
voting power of all classes of MakeMusic outstanding stock entitled to vote;

percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of
such entity’s outstanding stock, units or other interests entitled to vote
is owned, directly or indirectly, by MakeMusic.

     (iii) The Executive shall not be entitled to receive any Change of
Control payment which would constitute a “parachute payment” for purposes of
Code Section 280G, or any successor provision, and the regulations
thereunder. In the event any Change of Control payment payable to the
Executive would constitute a “parachute payment,” the Executive shall have
the right to designate those Change of Control payments which would be
reduced or eliminated so that the Executive will not receive a “parachute
payment.” For purposes of this Paragraph, a “Change of Control payment”
shall mean any payment, benefit or transfer of property in the nature of
compensation paid to or for the benefit of the Executive under any
arrangement which is considered contingent on a Change of Control for
purposes of Code Section 280G, including, without limitation, any and all of
MakeMusic’s salary, bonus, incentive, restricted stock, stock option,
equity-based compensation or benefit plans, programs or other arrangements,
and shall include the acceleration of this Award.

     (f) If Executive resigns for Good Reason, as defined below, upon or within 12
months following a Change of Control of MakeMusic, Executive shall be entitled to
the severance payments set forth in Section 3.02(d) above. For purposes of this
Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of

- 6 -

 

the following events without Executive’s consent upon or within 12 months
following a Change of Control of MakeMusic:

     (i) the assignment to Executive of employment responsibilities which
are not materially of comparable responsibility and status as the employment
responsibilities held by Executive immediately prior to the Change of
Control;

     (ii)  a reduction of Executive’s annual base salary in effect
immediately prior to a Change of Control by more than 10% unless such
reduction is part of a general salary reduction for all employees of similar
rank to the Executive;

     (iii) the failure by MakeMusic to obtain an assumption of the
obligations of MakeMusic to perform this Agreement by any successor to
MakeMusic;

     (iv) a material breach of this Agreement by MakeMusic or its successor;

     (v) the relocation of Executive’s place of employment by more than
forty (40) miles from the Executive’s place of employment immediately prior
to the Change of Control.

For purposes of the foregoing, Executive shall not be considered to have
been assigned employment of lesser responsibility if Executive manages, has
control over, or serves in a similar position with a subsidiary, division or
operating unit of an acquiring entity that generates revenues of comparable
amounts to the revenues generated by MakeMusic before such Change of
Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the forgoing events shall be
considered “Good Reason” if it occurs in connection with the Executive’s
death or disability.

     (g) All payments made to Executive under this Paragraph 3.02 shall be reduced
by amounts (i) required to be withheld in accordance with federal, state and local
laws and regulations in effect at the time of payment, or (ii) owed to MakeMusic by
Executive for any amounts advanced, loaned or misappropriated. Such offset shall be
made in the manner permitted by and shall be subject to the limitations of all
applicable laws, including but not limited to Code Section 409A, and the
regulations, notices and other guidance of general applicability issued thereunder.

     3.03 Return of MakeMusic Property. In the event of termination of Executive’s
employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, or at any time upon MakeMusic’s request, all
corporate documents, records, files, credit cards, computer disks and tapes, computer access cards,
codes and keys, file access codes and keys, building and office access cards, codes and

- 7 -

 

keys, materials, equipment and other property of MakeMusic which is in Executive’s possession shall
be returned to MakeMusic at its principal business office on the date of termination of Executive’s
employment, or within one business day thereafter if such duty to return property is triggered by
MakeMusic’s request or termination of employment without notice. Executive may copy, at
Executive’s expense, documents, records, materials and information of MakeMusic only with
MakeMusic’s express, written permission.

ARTICLE IV

PROTECTION OF TRADE SECRETS AND

CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS DATA

     4.01 Confidential Information. The definition of “Confidential Information” as set
forth in Paragraph 1.01 is not intended to be complete. From time to time during the term of his
employment, Executive may gain access to other information not generally known to the public and
proprietary to MakeMusic concerning MakeMusic’s businesses that is of commercial value to
MakeMusic, which information shall be included in the definition under Paragraph 1.01 above, even
though not specifically listed in that Paragraph. The definition of Confidential Information and
the provisions of this Article IV apply to any form in which the subject information, trade
secrets, or data may appear, whether written, oral, or any other form of recording or storage.

     4.02 Maintain in Confidence. Executive shall hold the Confidential Information,
including trade secrets and/or data, in the strictest confidence and will never, without prior
written consent of MakeMusic, directly or indirectly disclose, assign, transfer or convey such
information, or communicate such information to others or use it for his own or another’s benefit.
Without the prior written consent of MakeMusic, Executive shall not communicate Confidential
Information to a competitor of MakeMusic or any other person or entity, including, but not limited
to, the press, other professionals, corporations, partnerships or the public, at any time during
his employment with MakeMusic or at any time after his termination of employment with MakeMusic,
regardless of the reason for the Executive’s termination, whether voluntary or involuntary.
Executive further promises and agrees that he will faithfully abide by any rules, policies,
practices or procedures existing or which may be established by MakeMusic for insuring the
confidentiality of the Confidential Information, including, but not limited to, rules, policies,
practices or procedures:

     (a) Limiting access to authorized personnel;

     (b) Limiting copying of any writing, data or recording;

     (c) Requiring storage of property, documents or data in secure facilities
provided by MakeMusic and limiting safe or vault lock combinations or keys to
authorized personnel; and/or

     (d) Checkout and return or other procedures promulgated by MakeMusic from time
to time.

     4.03 Return of Information. Upon termination of the employer-employee relationship,
whether voluntary or involuntary, or at any time upon MakeMusic’s request, Executive will return to
MakeMusic any and all written or otherwise recorded form of all Confidential Information (and any
copies thereof) in his possession, custody or control, including, but not limited to, notebooks,
memoranda, specifications, customer lists, prospective or potential customer lists, or price lists.
Executive will not take with him, upon leaving MakeMusic’s place of business or employment with
MakeMusic, any such documents, data, writings, recordings, or reproduction in any form which may
have been entrusted or obtained by him during the course of his employment or to which he had
access, possession, custody or control, except with MakeMusic’s express, written permission. In
the event of termination of Executive’s employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, or at any
time upon MakeMusic’s request, Executive will deliver to MakeMusic all Confidential Information in
recorded form in his possession, custody or control and shall also deliver any and all property,
devices, parts, mock-ups, and finished or unfinished machinery or equipment in his possession,
custody or control which belongs to MakeMusic. Executive shall also deliver, upon termination of
his employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, or at any time upon MakeMusic’s request, all
records, drawings, blueprints, notes, notebooks, memoranda, specifications and documents or dates,
in any form, which contain Confidential Information.

ARTICLE V

COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE

     5.01 Noncompete and Nonsolicitation. In exchange for MakeMusic’s covenants under this
Agreement, Executive expressly agrees that, during his employment with MakeMusic (except on behalf
of MakeMusic) and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination of his employment with
MakeMusic, regardless of the party initiating termination and regardless of the reason for the
termination, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, acting on behalf of herself, another
business or competitor, without the prior written consent of MakeMusic:

     (a) anywhere within the United States (which Executive acknowledges to be
MakeMusic’s trade area), own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, consult for,
participate in, or provide products or services of any kind to, any business, entity
or person that is in competition with MakeMusic or markets, sells, or provides
products or services that are the same as or similar to, or compete with, products
or services offered by MakeMusic at the time;

     (b) render any services, advice or counsel as an owner, employee,
representative, agent, independent contractor, consultant or in any other capacity,
for any third party, if the rendering of such services, advice or counsel involves,
may involve, requires or is likely to result in the use or disclosure by Executive
of any Confidential Information;

     (c) solicit, contact, take away or interfere with, or attempt to solicit,
contact, take away or interfere with, any of MakeMusic’s customers or potential
customers with whom Executive (or other employees of MakeMusic under his
supervision) had contact during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding
his termination date, for the purpose of offering to provide or providing them with

- 9 -

 

any products or services that are the same as or similar to, or compete with,
products or services offered by MakeMusic at the time;

     (d) solicit, contact, take away or interfere with, or attempt to solicit,
contact, take away or interfere with, any of MakeMusic’s employees (working with

termination date) for the purpose of hiring them as an employee, contractor or
consultant or inducing them to leave their employment with MakeMusic; or

     (e) solicit, contact, take away or interfere with, or attempt to solicit,
contact, take away or interfere with, any of MakeMusic’s suppliers or vendors (at
that time or at any time in the six months prior to Executive’s termination date)
for the purpose of inducing them to end or alter their relationship with MakeMusic.

     5.02 Understandings. Executive acknowledges and agrees that MakeMusic informed him
that the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement would be required as part of the terms
and conditions of his employment under this Agreement, that he signed and returned this Agreement
to MakeMusic prior to commencing employment under the terms of this Agreement, he has carefully
considered the restrictions contained in this Agreement and that they are reasonable, that the
restrictions in this Agreement will not unduly restrict him in securing other employment in the
event of his termination from MakeMusic; and that employment under the terms of this Agreement
amounts to valuable consideration, to which Executive would not otherwise be entitled, to support
enforcement of the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement.

     5.03 Additional Consideration. As additional consideration for Executive’s agreements
in Paragraph 5.01, MakeMusic shall pay Executive $1,000, less required and authorized deductions
and withholding. Such payment shall be made by MakeMusic within ten (10) days following
Executive’s execution of this Agreement.

brought in connection with this Agreement that is necessary to enable MakeMusic to obtain the sole
right, title, and benefit to all such Inventions.

     6.03 Excluded Inventions. It is further agreed, and Executive is hereby so notified,
that the above agreement to assign Inventions to MakeMusic does not apply to any invention for

will suffer irreparable harm if Executive breaches Paragraphs 4.02, 4.03, 5.01 and/or 6.01 or 6.02
of this Agreement. Accordingly, MakeMusic shall be entitled, in addition to any other right and
remedy it may have, at law or equity, to a temporary restraining order and/or injunction, without

such Paragraphs, and Executive hereby consents to MakeMusic’s right to seek the issuance of such
injunction.

expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred with respect to such
proceeding. If neither party obtains a substantial portion of the relief requested each shall bear
its/his own expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive is terminated pursuant

Executive shall each bear its/his own attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any
proceeding initiated by Executive with respect to the determination as to “Cause.”
