 Dear Diane: 
 This letter confirms our previous
conversations regarding the employment opportunity available to you with Sprinklr, Inc. (the “Company”) and sets forth the terms and conditions of that employment. 

1. The Company hereby offers you full-time employment as the Chief Human Resources Officer for Sprinklr commencing on or about Monday, April 2, 2018 (the
“Start Date”). You shall report to Ragy Thomas, CEO. During the period of your employment, you shall (a) devote your entire working time at the direction of the Company or its affiliates, (b) use your best efforts to complete all
assignments, and (c) adhere to the Company’s written procedures and policies in place from time to time. 
 2. Your initial base salary will be at
the rate of $400,000 (Four Hundred Thousand dollars) per year payable in cash in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule for salaried employees, subject to standard withholding and payroll taxes (the “Base Salary”). In
addition, you will be eligible to participate in the variable compensation plan applicable to your role. You will receive further details on the plan when you commence employment, but the target variable compensation will be $200,000 (Two Hundred
Thousand dollars) (the “Incentive Bonus”). The Incentive Bonus is paid annually and will be prorated based on your start date. 
 3. The Company
has established a standard Company stock grant and option plan (the “Plan”). The Company’s Board of Directors has approved that you be granted options to purchase common equity of the Company equal to 500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand)
shares. Such options would be issued at their fair market value set in the Plan and would have an exercise price, vesting schedule and other terms and conditions consistent with the standard terms under such Plan. 

4. The Company will also provide you with a Change of Control Agreement to be effective with your date of hire. A form of such agreement will be presented to
you during your on-boarding. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the vesting of the shares shall accelerate under the
following circumstances. 
  

	 	a)	 In the event that a change of control (as defined in the Plan) occurs within twelve months (12) from the
start date of your employment and you are terminated by the Company (or successor entity in such change of control) within ninety (90) days before, or within twelve (12) months after such change of control for any reason other than Cause
or by you for Good Reason, then immediately upon your termination 50% of the equity grant contemplated in this letter (i.e., 250,000) shares will be deemed fully vested as of the closing date of the change of control.

	 	b)	 In the event that a change of control (as defined in the Plan) occurs after twelve months (12) months from
the start date of your employment and you are terminated by the Company (or successor entity in such change of control) such change of control for any reason other than Cause or by you for Good Reason, then immediately upon your termination 100% of
the equity grant then outstanding will be deemed fully vested as of the closing date of the change of control. 

 5. In the event that
your at-will employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason, the Company will pay you the following amounts, subject to your execution of a separation and release agreement:
(i) six months’ of your Base Salary, payable in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice, (ii) your monthly health and welfare premium for six months or until you obtain alternative coverage, whichever occurs first, and
(iii) your full on-target Annual Incentive for the year in which your employment is terminated, which shall be prorated based on the number of full weeks worked in such year. 

6. You will work from you home office in Raleigh, North Carolina subject to your attendance of meetings at other Company offices and/or at other locations.

 7. During your employment with the Company you will be entitled to participate in all our then current customary employee benefit plans and programs,
subject to eligibility requirements, enrollment criteria, and the other terms and conditions of such plans and programs. The Company reserves the right to change or rescind its benefit plans and programs and alter employee contribution levels in its
discretion. 
 8. By executing this letter below, you agree that during the course of your employment and thereafter that you shall not use or disclose, in
whole or in part, any of the Company’s or its clients’ trade secrets, confidential and proprietary information, including client lists and information, to any person, firm, corporation, or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever
other than in the course of your employment with the Company or with the prior written permission of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer. By executing this letter below, you represent and warrant to the Company that
you have no agreement with, or duty to, any previous employer or other person or entity that would prohibit, prevent, inhibit, limit, or conflict with the performance of your duties to the Company. 

9. This offer of employment with the Company is contingent upon (a) our satisfactory completion of reference and background checks, and (b) proof of
your authorization to work. If, based upon a unique circumstance, you commence work before the Company has completed its inquiry in clause (a) or receive proof under clause (b), you will be deemed to be a conditional employee. 

10. Although we hope that your employment with us is mutually satisfactory, employment at the Company is “at will.” This means that, just as you may
resign from the Company at any time with or without cause, the Company has the right to terminate your employment relationship at any time with or without cause or notice. Neither this letter nor any other communication, either written or oral,
should be construed as a contract of employment, unless it is signed by both you and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, and such agreement is expressly acknowledged as an employment contract.
