 Exhibit 10.10 

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 

THIS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into, effective as of
            ,         , by and between Ignyta, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and [insert name of director or officer]
(“Indemnitee”). 
 WHEREAS, it is essential to the Company to retain and attract qualified directors and officers; 

WHEREAS, Indemnitee is a director and/or officer of the Company; 

WHEREAS, both the Company and Indemnitee recognize the increased risk of litigation and other claims currently being asserted against
directors and officers of public companies; 
 WHEREAS, the amended and restated articles of incorporation of the Company (the
“Articles of Incorporation”) and the bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”) permit the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law; 

WHEREAS, Indemnitee agreed to serve as a director and/or officer of the Company in part in reliance on the Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws; 
 WHEREAS, in recognition of Indemnitee’s need for (i) substantial protection against personal liability based on
Indemnitee’s reliance on the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, (ii) specific contractual assurance that the protection promised by the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws will be available to Indemnitee (regardless of, among other
things, any amendment to or revocation of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws or any change in the composition of the Company’s Board of Directors or acquisition transaction relating to the Company), and (iii) an inducement to provide
effective services to the Company as a director and/or officer, the Company wishes to provide in this Agreement for the indemnification of and the advancing of expenses to Indemnitee to the fullest extent (whether partial or complete) permitted
under Nevada law and as set forth in this Agreement, and, to the extent insurance is maintained by the Company, to provide for the continued coverage of Indemnitee under the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance
policies; and 
 WHEREAS, Indemnitee is relying upon the rights afforded under this Agreement in accepting Indemnitee’s position as a
director and/or officer of the Company. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants contained herein and of Indemnitee
agreeing to serve the Company directly or, at its request, another enterprise, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows: 

1. Certain Definitions: 

(a) Affiliate: any corporation or other person or entity that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or
is controlled by, or is under common 

 
control with, the person specified. 
 (b) Change in Control: shall be deemed
to have occurred if: (i) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (other than (1) a trustee or other fiduciary
holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, (2) a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, (3) any
person holding shares of the Company on the date that the Company first registers under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any transferee of such individual if such transferee is a spouse or lineal descendant of the transferee or a trust for
the benefit of the individual, his spouse or lineal descendants, or (4) City Hill Ventures I, LLC, Jonathan E. Lim or any of their respective Affiliates), is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then
outstanding Voting Securities; (ii) during any period of two (2) consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the
Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so
approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board; or (iii) the Company’s stockholders approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation that would result
in the Voting Securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into Voting Securities of the surviving entity) a majority of the total voting power
represented by the Voting Securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; (iv) one or more of the Company’s stockholders agree to directly sell Voting Securities to a
“person” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), who before such sale held Voting Securities representing less than a majority of the total voting power represented by all of the outstanding Voting
Securities of the Company, and who after such sale will hold Voting Securities representing a majority of the total voting power represented by all of the outstanding Voting Securities of the Company; or (v) the stockholders of the Company
approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. 

(c) Expenses: without limitation, any expense, liability, or loss, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise
taxes and penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement, any interest, assessments, or other charges imposed thereon, any federal, state, local, or foreign taxes imposed as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this
Agreement, and all other costs and obligations, paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in, participating in (including on appeal), or preparing for any of the foregoing in, any Proceeding relating to any
Indemnifiable Event. 
 (d) Indemnifiable Event: any event or occurrence that takes place either prior to or after the execution of
this Agreement, related to the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director or officer of the Company, or while a director or officer is or was serving at the 

  
 2 

 
request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, trustee, agent, or fiduciary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust, or
other enterprise, including without limitation any of the Company’s Affiliates, or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of a foreign or domestic corporation that was a predecessor corporation of the Company or of another enterprise at
the request of such predecessor corporation, or related to anything done or not done by Indemnitee in any such capacity, whether or not the basis of the Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent
or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company, as described above. 
 (e) Independent
Counsel: except provided in Section 3 (in the event of a Change in Control), independent legal counsel who has not otherwise performed services for the Company or Indemnitee (other than in connection with indemnification matters) within the
last five (5) years. Independent Counsel shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action
to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. 
 (f) Proceeding: any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit,
alternative dispute mechanism, or proceeding (including an action by or in the right of the Company), and any appeal thereof or any inquiry, hearing, or investigation, whether conducted by the Company or any other party, that Indemnitee in good
faith believes might lead to the institution of any such action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, or other. 

(g) Reviewing Party: except as provided in Section 3 (in the event of a Change in Control), the Reviewing Party must (i) be
a majority of a quorum of the Board consisting of directors who are not parties to the Proceeding, (ii) if a majority of a quorum of the Board consisting of directors who are not parties to the Proceeding so orders, be Independent Counsel, whom
shall provide a written opinion, or (iii) if a quorum of the Board consisting of directors who are not parties to the Proceeding cannot be obtained, be Independent Counsel, whom shall provide a written opinion. 

(h) Voting Securities: any securities of the Company that vote generally in the election of directors. 

2. Agreement to Indemnify. 

(a) General Agreement. In the event Indemnitee was, is, or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to
be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any Proceeding by reason of (or arising in part out of) an Indemnifiable Event, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee from and against any and all Expenses to the fullest extent permitted by
law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended or interpreted (but in the case of any such amendment or interpretation, only to the extent that such amendment or interpretation permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than
were permitted prior thereto). The parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall provide for indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by statute, including, without limitation, 

  
 3 

 
any indemnification provided by the Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, vote of the Company’s stockholders or disinterested directors, or applicable law. The Company shall provide
indemnification pursuant to this Section 2(a) as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after it receives written demand from Indemnitee. By written notice to Indemnitee, the thirty (30) day period may be
extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed fifteen (15) days if the Reviewing Party making the determination requires additional time for obtaining or evaluating documents or information. 

(b) Initiation of Proceeding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or any director or officer of the Company unless (i) the Company has joined in or the Board has consented to the initiation
of such Proceeding; (ii) the Proceeding is one to enforce indemnification rights under Section 4(b); or (iii) the Proceeding is instituted after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the
directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) and Independent Counsel has approved its initiation. 

(c) Expense Advances. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company shall advance (within ten (10) business days of such request)
any and all Expenses to Indemnitee (an “Expense Advance”); provided that (i) such an Expense Advance shall be made only upon delivery to the Company of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay the amount thereof if it is
ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company, and (ii) if and to the extent that the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be so indemnified under applicable law, the
Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse the Company) for all such amounts theretofore paid. If Indemnitee has commenced or commences legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a
determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law, as provided in Section 4, any determination made by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not be
binding, and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or have lapsed).
Indemnitee’s obligation to reimburse the Company for Expense Advances shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon. 

(d) Mandatory Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding relating in whole or in part to an Indemnifiable Event or in defense of any issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred in connection
therewith. 
 (e) Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the
Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. 

  
 4 

 (f) Prohibited Indemnification. No indemnification pursuant to this Agreement shall be
paid by the Company on account of any Proceeding in which judgment is rendered against Indemnitee for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by Indemnitee of securities of the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of any federal, state, or local laws. 
 3. Change in
Control. After a Change in Control, Independent Counsel, as selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall become the Reviewing Party. With respect to all matters arising after a
Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) concerning the rights of Indemnitee to indemnity payments and Expense Advances
under this Agreement or any other agreement or under applicable law or the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for Indemnifiable Events, the Company shall seek legal advice only from Independent
Counsel. Independent Counsel, among other things, shall render its written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee as to whether and to what extent Indemnitee should be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law. 

If there has not been a Change in Control, the Reviewing Party shall be selected as set forth in Section 1(g). 

Whether Independent Counsel is appointed by the Board in accordance with Section 1(g) or is appointed in circumstances involving a
Change in Control in accordance with this Section 3, the Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of Independent Counsel and to indemnify fully Independent Counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims,
liabilities, loss, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the engagement of Independent Counsel pursuant hereto. 
 4.
Indemnification Process and Appeal. 
 (a) Indemnification Payment. Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification of
Expenses and shall receive payment thereof, from the Company in accordance with this Agreement as soon as practicable after Indemnitee has made written demand on the Company for indemnification, unless the Reviewing Party has given a written opinion
to the Company that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under applicable law. 
 (b) Suit to Enforce Rights. Regardless of
any action by the Reviewing Party, if Indemnitee has not received full indemnification within thirty (30) days after making a demand in accordance with Section 4(a), Indemnitee shall have the right to enforce its indemnification rights
under this Agreement by commencing litigation in any court in the State of Nevada having subject matter jurisdiction thereof seeking an initial determination by the court or challenging any determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof.
The Company hereby consents to service of process and to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party not challenged by Indemnitee shall be otherwise conclusive and binding on the Company and Indemnitee. The remedy
provided for in this Section 4 shall be in addition to any other remedies available to Indemnitee at law or in equity. 

  
 5 

 (c) Defense to Indemnification, Burden of Proof, and Presumptions. It shall be a defense
to any action brought by Indemnitee against the Company to enforce this Agreement (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking has
been tendered to the Company) that it is not permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed. In connection with any such action or any determination by the Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether
Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the burden of proving such a defense or determination shall be on the Company. Neither the failure of the Reviewing Party or the Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action by Indemnitee that indemnification of the claimant is proper under the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the standard of conduct set forth in applicable law,
nor an actual determination by the Reviewing Party or Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that Indemnitee had not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a
presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any claim, action, suit, or proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval),
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined that indemnification is not
permitted by applicable law. 
 5. Indemnification for Expenses Incurred in Enforcing Rights. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee
against any and all Expenses that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for: 
 (i)
indemnification or advance payment of Expenses by the Company under this Agreement or any other agreement or under applicable law or the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for Indemnifiable
Events; and/or 
 (ii) recovery under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, but
only in the event that Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification or insurance recovery, as the case may be. In addition, the Company shall, if so requested by Indemnitee, advance the foregoing Expenses to Indemnitee,
subject to and in accordance with Section 2(c). 
 6. Notification and Defense of Proceeding. 

(a) Notice. Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee, except
as provided in Section 6(c). 
 (b) Defense. With respect to any Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Company of the
commencement thereof, the Company will be entitled to participate 

  
 6 

 
in the Proceeding at its own expense and except as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any Proceeding, the Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any Expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in
connection with the defense of such Proceeding other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ legal counsel in such Proceeding, but all Expenses related thereto incurred after
notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at Indemnitee’s expense unless: (i) the employment of legal counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company; (ii) Indemnitee has reasonably determined that
there may be a conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of the Proceeding; (iii) after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors
immediately prior to such Change in Control), the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been approved by Independent Counsel; or (iv) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, in each of
which cases all Expenses of the Proceeding shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which Indemnitee shall have made the determination
provided for in (ii), (iii) and (iv) above. 
 (c) Settlement of Claims. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify
Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Company’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that if a Change in Control has
occurred (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the Company shall be liable for indemnification of Indemnitee for amounts paid in
settlement if Independent Counsel has approved the settlement. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. The Company shall not be
liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement with regard to any judicial award if the Company was not given a reasonable and timely opportunity, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such action; the Company’s liability
hereunder shall not be excused if participation in the Proceeding by the Company was barred by this Agreement. 
 7. Establishment of
Trust. In the event of a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) the Company shall, upon written request by
Indemnitee, create a Trust for the benefit of Indemnitee and from time to time upon written request of Indemnitee shall fund the Trust in an amount sufficient to satisfy any and all Expenses reasonably anticipated at the time of each such request to
be incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, participating in, and/or defending any Proceeding relating to an Indemnifiable Event. The amount or amounts to be deposited in the Trust pursuant to the foregoing funding obligation shall
be determined by Independent Counsel. The terms of the Trust shall provide that (i) the Trust shall not be revoked or the principal thereof invaded without the written consent of Indemnitee, (ii) the Trustee shall advance, within ten
(10) business days of a request by Indemnitee, any and all Expenses to Indemnitee (and Indemnitee hereby agrees to 

  
 7 

 
reimburse the Trust under the same circumstances for which Indemnitee would be required to reimburse the Company under Section 2(c) of this Agreement), (iii) the Trust shall continue to
be funded by the Company in accordance with the funding obligation set forth above, (iv) the Trustee shall promptly pay to Indemnitee all amounts for which Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise,
and (v) all unexpended funds in the Trust shall revert to the Company upon a final determination by Independent Counsel or a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be, that Indemnitee has been fully indemnified under the terms of this
Agreement. The Trustee shall be chosen by Indemnitee. Nothing in this Section 7 shall relieve the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement. All income earned on the assets held in the Trust shall be reported as income by the
Company for federal, state, local, and foreign tax purposes. The Company shall pay all costs of establishing and maintaining the Trust and shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims,
liabilities, loss, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the establishment and maintenance of the Trust. 
 8.
Non-Exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, applicable law, or otherwise; provided, however, that this Agreement shall supersede
any prior indemnification agreement between the Company and Indemnitee. To the extent that a change in applicable law (whether by statute or judicial decision) permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Articles of
Incorporation, Bylaws, applicable law, or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties that Indemnitee enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. 

9. Liability Insurance. To the extent the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing general and/or directors’
and officers’ liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies, in accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any Company director or officer. 

10. Period of Limitations. No legal action shall be brought and no cause of action shall be asserted by or on behalf of the Company or
any Affiliate of the Company against Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors, or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two (2) years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, or such longer period as
may be required by state law under the circumstances. Any claim or cause of action of the Company or its Affiliate shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing and notice of a legal action within such period;
provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action, the shorter period shall govern. 

11. Amendment of this Agreement. No supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in
writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding unless in the form of a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought, and no such waiver shall operate as a
waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Except as specifically provided herein, no failure to 

  
 8 

 
exercise or any delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof. 

12. No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment in connection with any claim
made against Indemnitee to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise received payment (under any insurance policy, bylaw, or otherwise) of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder. 

13. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their
respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, and personal and legal
representatives. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all, substantially all, or a substantial part, of the business and/or assets of the Company, by
written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken
place. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified capacity pertaining to an Indemnifiable Event even though he may have ceased to serve in such
capacity at the time of any Proceeding. 
 14. Severability. If any provision (or portion thereof) of this Agreement shall be held by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or otherwise unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Furthermore, to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of this Agreement containing any provision held to be invalid, void, or otherwise unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, void, or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to
the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, void, or unenforceable. 
 15. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada applicable to contracts made and to be performed in such State without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of laws. 

16. Notices. All notices, demands, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand, against receipt, or mailed, postage prepaid, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to the Company at:

 The actual goals for measurement purposes will be based upon the Company’s fiscal Annual Operating
Plan (AOP) as approved by the Emulex Board of Directors. Corporate incentive components will be calculated according to the following procedure (assumes quarterly performance period): 

 

	1.	 The Target Award Opportunity times the participant’s quarterly gross base salary equals the Target Award. 

Example :        35% x $25,000 (quarterly salary) = $8,750 Target Award 

 

	2.	 The weighting factors for net revenue, net operating income as stated above times the Target Award give the incentive target for each weighting factor.

 Example :        45% x $8,750 = $3,937.50 (net revenue target)

                       
 55% x $8,750 = $4,812.50 (net operating income target) 
  

	3.	 An accelerator formula of 1.5 x % of performance less 50% will be used for each part of the quantitative incentive award calculation to reinforce
over-achievement opportunity as well as to minimize any incentive payment for performance below fiscal AOP planned levels. 

Using the Example, if the first quarter performance is 105% of net revenue and 110% of net income: 

 

	 	•	 	 (105% x 1.50) less 50% = 157.5% - 50% = 107.5% of net revenue target: 

  107.5% x $3,937.50 = $4,232.81 net revenue incentive component 
  

	 	•	 	 (110% x 1.50) less 50% = 165% - 50% = 115% of net operating income target: 

  115% x $4,812.50 = $5,534.38 net operating income incentive component 
 Total first
quarter incentive components = $9,767.19 
 Using the Example, if the second quarter performance is 90% of Net Revenue and 80%
of Net Operating income: 
  

	 	•	 	 (90% x 1.50) less 50% = 135% - 50% = 85% of net revenue target: 

  85% x $3,937.50 = $3,346.88 net revenue incentive component 
  

	 	•	 	 (80% x 1.50) less 50% = 120% - 50% = 70% of net operating income target: 

  70% x $4,812.50 = $3,368.75 net operating income incentive component 
 Total second quarter incentive
components = $6,715.63 
  

	4.	 Net Revenue and Net Operating Income will be treated as separate components independent of one another regardless of the award formula, and will be added to
compute the cash award. However, a minimum performance threshold of 80% of the Board of Directors’ approved AOP for Net Revenue and Net Operating Income must be achieved for each respective incentive component to be included in the cash award.
Likewise, a maximum award has been established based on performance at 133% of plan for each component. 

Note: In no event will a cash award be deemed earned or payable under any component or provision of the plan if actual Net
Operating Income for the Operating Unit’s applicable performance periods falls below 50% of the approved AOP for Net Operating Income for such performance period.

	5.	 A participant’s cash award may be adjusted by a Performance Contribution Factor (PCF) which represents the level of the participant’s contribution
to the Company’s results for the quarter, and the payment made to the participant shall be the cash award multiplied by the PCF. The PCF will be determined by the Company, and can range from 0.9 to 1.1, as a factor to be multiplied by the cash
award for the performance period. A PCF other than 1.0 should be applied on an exception basis. The PCF for a participant will be based on exceptional performance (positive or negative) against the objectives set for that participant at the
beginning of the quarter, and the participant’s progress against those objectives as discussed with his or her manager. 

DISCRETIONARY AWARDS 
 When an
individual makes an extraordinary contribution to the success of the Company, the employee’s contribution deserves special recognition and financial reward. It is the intention of this “Discretionary Awards” provision to provide the
CEO with the latitude to recommend unusual incentive awards to be made to such contributors when they occur. Such incentive award recommendations are not subject to the guidelines of the Plan described above, but are subject to the review and prior
approval of the Compensation Committee. 
 PLAN ADMINISTRATION 

The Plan will be administered under the direction of the CEO of Emulex Corporation upon approval by the Emulex Compensation Committee. The
administrator’s authority includes recommendations as noted below as well as: 
  

	¡ 	 	 Identification of Plan participants, corporate performance goals, award opportunity and award payment. 

 

	¡ 	 	 Interpretation of the Plan. 

  

	¡ 	 	 Changes to the Plan or termination of the Plan, provided such changes or termination do not adversely affect the award opportunity or difficulty of earning
awards following the beginning of the fiscal year. 

  

	¡ 	 	 Treatment of special events in calculating performance versus plan, such as a major acquisition or changes in accounting regulations. 

ELIGIBILITY THRESHOLDS & PRO-RATION OF INCENTIVE TARGET / PAYOUT 

Except as otherwise provided in this Plan or as required by law, if an employee is (a) hired by the Company into an eligible incentive position,
(b) is promoted or transferred during the performance period into an eligible position or (c) demoted or transferred during the performance period out of a bonus eligible position, his/her award opportunity will be based on the effective
date of the event. 
 New Hires Minimum Participation Requirement – A participant
must be an active regular full-time employee during the performance period for which the incentive is paid. A pro-rated payment will be made for employment during portions of a performance period, provided the participant has been employed for a
minimum of: 

	 	•	 	30 calendar days during the performance period if performance period is defined as quarterly. 

	 	•	 	60 days if the performance period is semi-annual. 

  
 4 

	 	•	 	90 days if the performance period is annual. 

 Calculation of Prorated
Targets – An employee, who is placed into or removed from an incentive eligible position during the performance period, is eligible for a prorated award target based upon the number of days divided by the total number of day in the
performance period to get the proration factor (minimum days of service required for new-hires as stated above). Proration factor will be applied against the employee’s incentive target to get the performance period’s eligible target
percentage. 
 For example: A employee who is promoted into (or out of) an incentive eligible position on
August 16th would be eligible for a prorated payment under the plan (assuming a quarterly payout) as follows: 
  

	 	¡ 	 	August 16th = 46th day of quarter; full quarter is 91 days therefore proration factor would be 49.45% (45
days/91 days) 

  

	 	¡ 	 	Assuming this employee had a 35% incentive target the prorated incentive target for the quarter would be = 17.31% (35% Incentive Target x 49.45%) 

All quarterly, semi-annual and/or annual incentive opportunities under the Plan will be determined and prorated based on full days, as described above. 

Leaves of Absence (LOA) – Except as otherwise provided in this Plan or as required by law, if an
employee goes on an approved Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), Workers Compensation or Personal Leave of Absence during the performance period, his/her incentive award will be prorated based upon full number of days worked during the
performance period. 
  

	 	¡ 	 	An employee who is out of work on an Approved Leave of Absence for any reason and, as a result, does not work during the performance period will NOT be eligible for an award payout. 

 

	 	¡ 	 	Payment for any incentive earned up to the start of an applicable Approved Leave of Absence will be calculated and paid according to the normal process, even if such payment occurs while an employee is out on an
Approved Leave of Absence. Further, payment for any incentive earned during an applicable Approved Leave of Absence will be calculated according to the normal process, and payment will be made as soon as administratively possible
following the employee’s return from approved leave. 

 Participant Performance
Requirement – Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this document, except as otherwise required by law, eligibility to participate in the Plan or to earn or receive credit for any incentives for a given full-month period during
the performance period is contingent on performance by the employee at a “satisfactory level” for such period, which is defined as: (i) having no deficiencies in meeting goals or failure to meet job standards as determined by the
Company in its discretion; (ii) effectively performing his/her duties and responsibilities as generally outlined in the job description as determined by the Company in its discretion; or (iii) not being subject to a written Performance
Improvement Plan (PIP) or on probation for the period defined in such PIP or probation. 
 Separation From
Employment - Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, below in this Section or as required by law, an employee is eligible to receive an incentive if he/she is employed by the Company on the day of actual incentive payout and
otherwise meets the incentive goal/target, performance, and other eligibility requirements set forth in this Plan. 

  
 5 

	 	¡ 	 	In the event an employee is terminated by the Company from his/her employment for the reasons summarized below, an employee will be eligible to receive an incentive payout for each applicable performance period (e.g.,
for monthly, quarterly and/or annual components) The incentive award will be based upon the full number of days the employee worked during the performance period, regardless of when the incentive(s) are later paid. 

 

	 	—	 	Permanent or indefinite reduction in staff resulting in job elimination; 

	 	—	 	Reduction of an employee’s position as the result of an organizational or business restructuring; 

	 	—	 	Discontinuance of an operation; 

	 	—	 	Relocation of all or a part of Emulex’s business; 

	 	—	 	Lack of work; 

	 	—	 	Location closing; 

	 	—	 	Sale of an operation to a third party; or 

	 	—	 	Sale or other change in ownership of all or a part of Emulex’s business. 

  

	 	¡ 	 	In the event an employee is terminated by the Company, resigns or is otherwise separated from his/her employment for any reason other than those described in this Section above prior to payment of all
or a portion of a Plan award for an applicable performance period (e.g., for quarterly, semi-annually, and/or annual), the employee shall immediately cease eligibility as a participant in the Plan, and shall not be entitled to any incentive
award. 

 Examples of reasons for termination or separation that disqualify an employee from earning a potential incentive award
include, but are not limited to: 
  

	 	—	 	Resignation by the Employee for any reason. 

	 	—	 	Termination by the Company for unsatisfactory job performance, violation of rules of conduct, disloyalty or breach of fiduciary duty to the Company, or any other reason not specifically listed in this Section above.

  

	 	¡ 	 	In the event of an employee’s death, the employee’s estate will be eligible to receive an incentive award payout in whole or prorated for each applicable performance period (e.g., for quarterly, semi-annually
and/or annual) if decedent was employed by the Company prior to death of such performance period and otherwise meets the incentive goal/target. 

  

	 	¡ 	 	All incentive awards paid upon separation from employment shall be payable at the same time and in accordance with this Plan. Exceptions must be approved in writing by the CEO. 

Payment of Awards – Upon approval of an incentive award in accordance with this Plan,
the incentive award payment will be distributed no later than the first payroll cycle following the 60 days after the performance period ends. The award payment will be processed after financial close of the performance period, completion of the
audit/review of the Company’s financial statements by the Company’s independent auditors, and approval by the Emulex Compensation Committee.
