LLP

 Los Angeles, CA 90071 
 Attention: Robert Knauss, Esq. 
 Dear Rich: 
 Upon the Commencement Date (as defined below), DreamWorks Animation
SKG, Inc. (“Studio”) agrees to employ you and you agree to accept such employment upon the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement (“Agreement”). Upon Studio’s receipt of executed copies (in form and substance
satisfactory to Studio) of this Agreement, this Agreement shall supersede the executed Employment Agreement dated as of January 1, 2008 (the “Prior Agreement”) between DreamWorks Animation L.L.C. and you, and the Prior Agreement shall
be deemed terminated effective as of October 30, 2009. Studio shall have no obligation under this Agreement unless and until Studio has received from Employee a fully executed copy of this Agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to
Studio). 
 1. Term. The term of your employment hereunder shall commence on the date hereof (the
“Commencement Date”) and shall, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, continue up to and including October 29, 2013 (the “Employment Term”). 
 2. Duties/Responsibilities. 
 a. General. Your title shall be Head of Corporate Finance. 
 b.
Services. During the Employment Term you shall render your exclusive full-time business services to Studio and/or its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates in accordance with the reasonable directions and instructions of the Chief Financial
Officer of Studio, all as hereinafter set forth. You shall report to the Chief Financial Officer of Employer (currently, Lewis Coleman). 
 3. Exclusivity. You shall not during the Employment Term perform services for any person, firm or corporation (hereinafter referred to collectively as a “person”) without the prior
written consent of Studio and will not engage in any activity which would interfere with the performance of your services hereunder, or become financially interested

 
in any other person engaged in the production, distribution or exhibition of motion pictures or television programs (including, without limitation, motion pictures produced for, distributed to or
exhibited on free, cable, pay, satellite and/or subscription television, music and/or interactive), anywhere in the world. Nothing contained herein shall prevent you from owning publicly traded minority stock interests not to exceed five percent
(5%), limited partnership interests or other passive investment interests in businesses performing any of the aforesaid activities. 
 4. Compensation.  
 a. Base Salary. For all services rendered under this Agreement, Studio will
pay you a yearly base salary (the “Base Salary”) at a rate of Three Hundred Eighty-Seven Thousand Dollars ($387,000.00) for each full year of the Employment Term. The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with Studio’s applicable
payroll practices. 
 b. Cash Incentive and Equity-Based Compensation. 
 (i) You will be eligible, while you remain employed hereunder, subject to annual approval by the Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors of Studio (the “Compensation Committee”), to receive an annual cash bonus award pursuant to the terms of the Studio’s short-term incentive plan. It is Studio’s present expectation that such annual awards
will have a target value of $250,000. For the avoidance of doubt, such annual award will have a target value of $250,000 for the 2009 calendar year. 
 (ii) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, you shall receive an equity incentive award having a grant-date value targeted at $350,000. The vesting of such award shall be subject to conditions
as specified in the agreement evidencing the grant of such award, which agreement shall be executed concurrently with this Agreement. 
 (iii) In addition, you will be eligible while you remain employed hereunder, subject to annual approval by the Compensation Committee, to receive annual equity incentive awards, commencing in October
2010, consistent with other senior executives subject to Compensation Committee approval. It is Studio’s present expectation that such annual awards will have an annual aggregate grant-date value targeted at $350,000 and shall vest over four
(4) years from the date of grant. 
 5. Benefits. In addition to the foregoing, during the period of your
employment with Studio hereunder, you shall be entitled to participate in such other, medical, dental and life insurance, 401(k), pension and other benefit plans as Studio may have or establish from time to time for its most senior executives. In
addition, Studio shall cover the cost of personal financial consulting services to you. During the Employment Term, unless earlier terminated as set forth below, you shall be entitled to coverage in accordance with Studio’s standard leave of
absence policy and shall be entitled to vacation days and/or personal days to be taken subject to the demands of Studio (as determined by Studio) and consistent with the amount of days taken by other senior level executives; provided, however, no
vacation time will be accrued during the Employment Term. The foregoing, however, shall not be construed to require Studio to establish any such plans or to prevent the modification or termination of such plans once established, and no such action
or failure thereof shall affect this Agreement. 
  

 2 

 6. Business Expenses. Studio shall reimburse you for business expenses on a
regular basis in accordance with its policy regarding the reimbursement of such expenses for executives of like stature to you (including travel, at Studio’s request (which, in accordance with Studio policy, is currently first class)). Expenses
shall be eligible for reimbursement hereunder to the extent that they are incurred by you during the period of your employment with Studio pursuant to this Agreement. All reimbursable expenses shall be reimbursed to you as promptly as practicable
and in any event not later than the last day of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the expenses are incurred, and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses
eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year. 
 7. Indemnification. You shall be fully indemnified and
held harmless by Studio to the fullest extent permitted by law from any claim, liability, loss, cost or expense of any nature (including attorney’s fees of counsel selected by you, judgments, fines, any amounts paid or to be paid in any
settlement, and all costs of any nature) incurred by you (all such indemnification to be on an “after-tax” or “gross-up” basis) which arises, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part out of any alleged or actual conduct,
action or inaction on your part in or in connection with or related in any manner to your status as an employee, agent, officer, corporate director, member, manager, shareholder, partner of, or your provision of services to, Studio or any of its
affiliated entities, or any entity to which you are providing services on behalf of Studio or which may be doing business with Studio. To the maximum extent allowed by law, all amounts to be indemnified hereunder including reasonable attorneys’
fees shall be promptly advanced by Studio until such time, if ever, as it is determined by final decision pursuant to Paragraph 24 below that you are not entitled to indemnification hereunder (whereupon you shall reimburse Studio for all sums
theretofore advanced). Any tax gross-up payments that you become entitled to receive pursuant to this Paragraph 7 will be paid to you (or to the applicable taxing authority on your behalf) as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than
the last day of the calendar year after the calendar year in which you remit the related taxes. 
 8. Covenants.

 a. Confidential Information. You agree that you shall not, during the Employment Term or at any time thereafter, use
for your own purposes, or disclose to, or for any benefit of any third party, any trade secret or other confidential information of Studio or any of its affiliates (except as may be required by law or in the performance of your duties hereunder
consistent with Studio’s policies) and that you will comply with any confidentiality obligations of Studio known by you to a third party, whether under agreement or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, confidential information shall be
deemed not to include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by you or any other person who directly or indirectly receives such information from you or at your direction or
(ii) is or becomes available to you on a non-confidential basis from a source which you reasonably believe is entitled to disclose it to you. 
  

 3 

 b. Studio Ownership. The results and proceeds of your services hereunder, including,
without limitation, any works of authorship resulting from your services during your employment and any works in progress, shall be works-made-for-hire and Studio shall be deemed the sole owner throughout the universe of any and all rights of
whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized or developed, with the right to use the same in perpetuity in any manner Studio determines in its sole discretion without any further payment to you
whatsoever. If, for any reason, any of such results and proceeds shall not legally be a work-for-hire and/or there are any rights which do not accrue to Studio under the preceding sentence, then you hereby irrevocably assign and agree to assign any
and all of your right, title and interest thereto, including, without limitation, any and all copyrights, patents, trade secrets, trademarks and/or other rights of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing,
contemplated, recognized or developed by Studio, and Studio shall have the right to use the same in perpetuity throughout the universe in any manner Studio may deem useful or desirable to establish or document Studio’s exclusive ownership of
any and all rights in any such results and proceeds, including, without limitation, the execution of appropriate copyright and/or patent applications or assignments. To the extent that you have any rights in the results and proceeds of your services
that cannot be assigned in the manner described above, you unconditionally and irrevocably waive the enforcement of such rights. This Paragraph 8.b is subject to, and shall not be deemed to limit, restrict, or constitute any waiver by Studio of any
rights of ownership to which Studio may be entitled by operation of law by virtue of Studio or any of its affiliates being your employer. 
 c. Return of Property. All documents, data, recordings, or other property, whether tangible or intangible, including all information stored in electronic form, obtained or prepared by or for you
and utilized by you in the course of your employment with Studio or any of its affiliates shall remain the exclusive property of Studio. In the event of the termination of your employment for any reason, and subject to any other provisions hereof,
Studio reserves the right, subject to Paragraph 27.b, to the extent required by law, and in addition to any other remedy Studio may have, to deduct from any monies otherwise payable to you the following: (i) the full amount of any specifically
determined debt you owe to Studio or any of its affiliates at the time of or subsequent to the termination of your employment with Studio, and (ii) the value of Studio property which you retain in your possession after the termination of your
employment with Studio following Studio’s written request for such item(s) return and your failure to return such items within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice. In the event that the law of any state or other jurisdiction requires
the consent of an employee for such deductions, this Agreement shall serve as such consent. 
 d. Promise Not To Solicit.
You will not, during the period of the Employment Term or for the period ending one (1) year after the earlier of expiration of the Employment Term or your termination hereunder, induce or attempt to induce any employees, exclusive consultants,
exclusive contractors or exclusive representatives of Studio (or those of any of its affiliates) to stop working for, contracting with or representing Studio or any of its affiliates or to work for, contract with or represent any of Studio’s
(or its affiliates’) competitors.

 9. Incapacity. 
 a. In the event you are unable to perform the services required of you hereunder as a result of a physical or mental disability and such
disability shall continue for a period of ninety (90) or more consecutive days or an aggregate of four (4) or more months during any twelve (12) month period during the Employment Term, Studio shall have the right, at its option and
subject to applicable state and federal law, to terminate your employment hereunder, and Studio shall only be obligated to pay you (a) for a period commencing on the termination of your employment by Studio and ending on the earlier of the
expiration of the Employment Term and the second anniversary of the termination of your employment, payments at a rate equal to 50% of your rate of Base Salary, and, except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 9.a, such payments will be payable
in accordance with Studio’s regular payroll practices applicable to similarly situated active employees, and (b) any additional compensation (including, without limitation, any grants of equity-based compensation made to you on or prior to
the date of termination (it being understood you will not be entitled to receive any grants of equity-based compensation thereafter) as determined pursuant to Paragraph 9.b below, and expense reimbursement for expenses incurred prior to your
termination) earned by you prior to the termination of your employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, you further will be entitled to continuation of medical, dental, life insurance, and financial counseling benefits (collectively,
excluding disability insurance, the “Continued Benefits”) for a period of twelve (12) months after termination of your employment pursuant to this paragraph (but not to exceed the end of the then-current Employment Term);
provided; however, that nothing in this sentence is intended to discontinue any short-term or long-term disability insurance benefits you are receiving or may become eligible to receive as a result of the disability resulting in
termination of your employment pursuant to this paragraph. Except as specifically permitted by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations thereunder as in effect from time to time
(collectively, hereinafter, “Section 409A”), the Continued Benefits provided to you during any calendar year will not affect the Continued Benefits to be provided to you in any other calendar year. With respect to any Continued Benefits
for which you may become eligible under this Paragraph 9.a or otherwise under this Agreement, if requested by Studio during any continuation period you shall elect to treat such Continued Benefits as being provided pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 (“COBRA”) or any similar applicable federal or state statute. Whenever compensation is payable to you hereunder, during or with respect to a time when you are
partially or totally disabled and such disability (except for the provisions hereof) would entitle you to disability income or to salary continuation payments from Studio according to the terms of any plan now or hereafter provided by Studio or
according to any policy of Studio in effect at the time of such disability, the compensation payable to you hereunder shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by any such disability income or salary continuation and shall not be in addition
thereto. If disability income is payable directly to you by an insurance company under an insurance policy paid for by Studio, the compensation payable to you hereunder shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amounts paid to you by said
insurance company and shall not be in addition thereto. 
  

 5 

 b. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable equity compensation plan
of Studio (each such plan, a “Plan”) or in the agreement evidencing the grant, in each case as of the date of the grant, after termination of employment pursuant to Paragraph 9.a, your grants of equity-based compensation will be
determined as follows. For purposes of this Agreement, an award will be deemed to have vested when it is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(d)). With respect to
grants having performance-based vesting criteria, the amount of such award that is eligible to vest will be determined after the end of the performance period specified in the grant, or satisfaction of such other criteria pursuant to the Plan,
subject to the applicable performance or other criteria, as if you had continued to remain employed with Studio throughout such performance period. With respect to grants having time-based vesting criteria, the full amount of such award will be
eligible to vest. A ratable portion of the amount of each award that is eligible to vest will become vested by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (i) your actual period of service in months through the
date of termination plus (ii) the lesser of (A) twelve (12) months or (B) 50% of the remaining Employment Term in months determined as of the date of termination (but in no event will the numerator exceed the denominator), and
the denominator of which is the total performance period in months (for grants having performance-based vesting criteria) or the total vesting period in months (for grants having time-based vesting criteria) specified in the grant. To avoid any
double-counting, any part of any equity-based compensation award that has vested in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement shall be credited against any part of such award that you shall be entitled to receive or exercise
pursuant to the determination set forth in the proceeding sentence. The balance of such awards will be forfeited. Subject to this Paragraph 9.b and to the other terms and conditions of the grants, all stock options and any similar equity-based
awards will remain exercisable for the remaining term of the grant. In the case of restricted stock units that are subject to performance-based vesting criteria, except as otherwise set forth in Paragraph 25, such awards will be settled on the
seventieth (70th) day after the date that such awards
become vested. With respect to restricted stock units that are subject to time-based vesting criteria, such awards will be settled within thirty (30) days following your termination of employment. 
 10. Death. If you die prior to the end of the Employment Term, this Agreement shall be terminated as of the date of death and
your beneficiary or estate shall be entitled to receive (a) your Base Salary accrued up to and including the date of death and, thereafter, for a period commencing on such date and ending on the earlier of the expiration of the Employment Term
and the first anniversary of such date, continued Base Salary payable in accordance with Studio’s regular payroll practices applicable to similarly situated active employees, (b) equity-based compensation to be determined in the same
manner and at the same time as provided in Paragraph 9.b, under and in accordance with any Plan, and (c) all other benefits pro-rated up to the date on which the death occurs. 
  

 6 

 11. Termination for Cause. Studio shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement at any time for cause. As used herein, the term “cause” shall mean (i) misappropriation of any material funds or property of Studio or any of its related companies; (ii) failure to obey reasonable and material orders
given by the Chief Financial Officer of Studio or by the board of directors of Studio (iii) any material breach of this Agreement by you; (iv) conviction of or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendre to a felony or a crime
involving moral turpitude; (v) any willful act, or failure to act, by you in bad faith to the material detriment of Studio; or (vi) material non-compliance with established Studio policies and guidelines (after which you have been informed
in writing of such policies and guidelines and you have failed to cure such non-compliance); provided that in each such case (other than (i) or (iv) or a willful failure in (ii) or repeated breaches, failures or acts of the same type
or nature) prompt written notice of such cause is given to you by specifying in reasonable detail the facts giving rise thereto and that continuation thereof will result in termination of employment, and such cause is not cured within ten
(10) business days after receipt by you of the first such notice. If you are terminated as set forth in this Paragraph 11, then payment of the specified Base Salary and any additional noncontingent cash compensation (including, without
limitation, any equity-based compensation which has vested and expense reimbursement for expenses incurred prior to your termination) theretofore earned by you shall be payment in full of all compensation payable hereunder. If Studio terminated you
hereunder, then you shall immediately reimburse Studio for all paid but unearned sums. 
 12. Involuntary
Termination. Studio may terminate your employment other than for cause or on account of incapacity, in which case you will receive, for a period equal to the Continuation Period (as defined below), (i) continued Base Salary payable in
accordance with Studio’s regular payroll practices applicable to similarly situated active employees, and (ii) Continued Benefits. In the event that any cash bonuses have been paid to you during the Employment Term, you shall also be
entitled to receive, with respect to each complete or partial calendar year prior to the expiration of the Continuation Period with respect to which, as of the date of termination of your employment, Studio has not yet paid annual cash bonuses (if
any) under its short term incentive plan to similarly situated active employees (each such year, a “Bonus Entitlement Year”), an annual cash payment (such payment, a “Bonus Equivalent Payment”) in an amount equal to the average
annual cash bonuses (including any $0 bonuses) that have been paid (whether or not deferred) to you, if any, during the Employment Term; provided, however, in the event that you are terminated, other than for cause or on account of incapacity, prior
to the date in 2010 on which the Compensation Committee determines the annual cash bonuses for the Company’s other executive officers (the “Bonus Determination Date”), then the Bonus Equivalent Payment shall be deemed to be the annual
cash bonus that you would have received had you remained an employee until the Bonus Determination Date (computed in the manner generally used in determining the annual cash bonuses of the Company’s other executive officers). In the event that
you become entitled to a Bonus Equivalent Payment in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Bonus Equivalent Payment will be made to you no earlier than January 1 and no later than December 31 of the calendar year following the Bonus
Entitlement Year to which such Bonus Equivalent Payment relates, and the Bonus Equivalent Payment relating to the calendar year for the last year of the Continuation Period

  

 7 

 
shall be pro-rated based on the number of days prior to the expiration of the Continuation Period during such calendar year. For purposes of this Paragraph 12, the term “Continuation
Period” shall be defined as follows: (A) in the event that your employment is terminated by Studio other than for cause or incapacity, unless such termination is during the 12-month period following a “change of control” (as
defined in Paragraph 25), then “Continuation Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date of such termination and ending on the expiration of the Employment Term and (B) in the event that your employment is terminated by
Studio other than for cause or incapacity during the 12-month period following a “change of control”, then “Continuation Period” shall mean the period commencing on the termination of your employment and ending on the later of
the expiration of the Employment Term and the second anniversary of the termination of your employment. In the event of termination of your employment without cause pursuant to this Paragraph 12, all the equity-based compensation held by you shall
accelerate vesting (with respect to grants having performance-based vesting criteria, on the basis that any mid-range or “target” goals rather than premium goals are deemed to have been achieved) and will, subject to the other terms and
conditions of the grants, remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the grant; however, you will not be entitled to receive any future equity-based compensation. All such outstanding restricted stock units (whether subject to time-based or
performance-based vesting criteria) will be settled not later than thirty (30) days following your termination of employment. If your services are terminated pursuant to this paragraph, you shall not be obligated to secure other employment to
mitigate damages incurred by Studio or any payment due you as a result of your termination hereunder; provided that any compensation earned from any employment obtained by you during the remainder of the Continuation Period will reduce on a
dollar-for-dollar basis Studio’s payment obligations under this Agreement, except if your services are terminated following a “change of control”. You agree that you will have no rights or remedies in the event of your termination
without cause other than those set forth in the Agreement to the maximum extent required by law. 
 13. Termination for
Good Reason. You shall be entitled to terminate your employment at any time for “good reason.” As used herein, the term “good reason” shall mean only: (i) any material breach of this Agreement by Studio;
(ii) any diminution in title; (iii) failure to be the most senior corporate finance executive (other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer (or their successors); (iv) any time that
Studio shall direct or require that you report to any person other than the Chief Financial Officer of the Studio; or (v) any time that Studio shall direct or require that your principal place of business be anywhere other than the Los Angeles
area. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, you will not be entitled to terminate your employment for good reason for purposes of this Agreement as the result of any event specified in the foregoing clauses (i) through
(v) unless, within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of such event, you give Studio written notice of the occurrence of such event, which notice sets forth the exact nature of the event and the conduct required to cure such event.
Studio shall have thirty (30) days from the receipt of such notice within which to cure (such period, the “Cure Period”). If, during the Cure Period, such event is remedied, then you will not be permitted to terminate your employment
for good reason as a result of such event. If, at the end of the Cure Period, the event that constitutes good reason has not

  

 8 

 
been remedied, you will be entitled to terminate your employment for good reason during the sixty (60) day period that follows the end of the Cure Period. If you do not terminate your
employment during such sixty (60) day period, you will not be permitted to terminate your employment for good reason as a result of such event. In the event of your voluntary termination for good reason, you shall be entitled to the payments,
benefits (including the post-term continuation of the applicable benefits) and equity-based compensation provided under Paragraph 12 for involuntary termination without cause. If your services are terminated pursuant to this paragraph, you shall not
be obligated to secure other employment to mitigate damages incurred by Studio or any payment due you as a result of your termination hereunder. You agree that you will have no rights or remedies in the event of your termination for good reason
other than those set forth in the Agreement to the maximum extent allowed by law. 
 14. Name/Likeness. During the
Employment Term, Studio shall have the right to use your name, biography and likeness in connection with its business as follows: You shall promptly submit to Studio a biography of yourself. Provided that you timely submit such biography, Studio
shall not use any other biographical information other than contained in such biography so furnished, other than references to your prior professional services and your services hereunder, without your prior approval (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld). If you fail to promptly submit a biography, then you shall not have the right to approve any biographical material used by Studio. You shall have the right to approve any likeness of you used by Studio. Nothing herein
contained shall be construed to authorize the use of your name, biography or likeness to endorse any product or service or to use the same for similar commercial purposes. 
 15. Section 317 and 508 of the Federal Communications Act. You represent that you have not accepted or given, nor will
you accept or give, directly or indirectly, any money, services or other valuable consideration from or to anyone other than Studio for the inclusion of any matter as part of any film, television program or other production produced, distributed
and/or developed by Studio and/or any of its affiliates. 
 16. Equal Opportunity Employer. You acknowledge that
Studio is an equal opportunity employer. You agree that you will comply with Studio policies regarding employment practices and with applicable federal, state and local laws prohibiting discrimination or harassment. 
 17. Notices. All notices required to be given hereunder shall be given in writing, by personal delivery or by mail and
confirmed by fax at the respective addresses of the parties hereto set forth above, or at such address as may be designated in writing by either party, and in the case of Studio, to the attention of the General Counsel of Studio. A courtesy copy of
any notice to you hereunder shall be sent to Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP, 355 South Grand Avenue, 35th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90071-1560, Facsimile: (213) 683-5137, Attention: Robert B. Knauss, Esq. Any notice given by mail shall be
deemed to have been given three (3) business days following such mailing. 
  

 9 

 18. Assignment. This is an Agreement for the performance of personal services
by you and may not be assigned by you (other than the right to receive payments which may be assigned to a company, trust or foundation owned or controlled by you) and any purported assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be deemed null and
void. Studio may assign this Agreement or all or any part of its rights hereunder to any entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Studio and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of such assignee, provided your duties do
not materially change. 
 19. California Law. This Agreement and all matters or issues collateral thereto shall be
governed by the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts entered into and performed entirely therein. 
 20.
No Implied Contract. The parties intend to be bound only upon execution of this Agreement and no negotiation, exchange or draft or partial performance shall be deemed to imply an agreement. Neither the continuation of employment nor
any other conduct shall be deemed to imply a continuing agreement upon the expiration of this Agreement. 
 21. Entire
Understanding. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter herein contained, and can be changed only by a writing signed by both parties hereto. 
 22. Void Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement, as applied to either party or to any circumstances, shall be adjudged
by a court to be void or unenforceable, the same shall be deemed stricken from this Agreement and shall in no way affect any other provision of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement. In the event any such provision (the
“Applicable Provision”) is so adjudged void or unenforceable, you and Studio shall take the following actions in the following order: (i) seek judicial reformation of the Applicable Provision; (ii) negotiate in good faith with
each other to replace the Applicable Provision with a lawful provision; and (iii) have an arbitration as provided in Paragraph 24 hereof determine a lawful replacement provision for the Applicable Provision; provided, however,
that no such action pursuant to either of clauses (i) or (iii) above shall increase in any respect your obligations pursuant to the Applicable Provision. 
 23. Survival; Modification of Terms. Your obligations under Paragraph 8 hereof shall remain in full force and effect for the entire period provided therein, notwithstanding the termination
of the Employment Term pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof or otherwise. Studio’s obligations under Paragraphs 6 (with respect to expenses theretofore incurred), 7 and 25.d hereof shall survive indefinitely the termination of this Agreement
regardless of the reason for such termination. Further, Paragraphs 9, 10, 12 and 13 will continue to govern your entitlement, if any, to benefits and equity based compensation after the termination of the Employment Term, and Paragraph 24 will
continue to govern any Claims (as defined below) by one party against the other. 
  

 10 

 24. Arbitration of Disputes. Any controversy or claim by you against Studio or
any of its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates (and/or officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents of Studio and such parent companies, subsidiaries and/or affiliates), including any controversy or claim arising from, out of or
relating to this Agreement, the breach thereof, or the employment or termination thereof of you by Studio which would give rise to a claim under federal, state or local law (including, but not limited to, claims based in tort or contract, claims for
discrimination under state or federal law, and/or claims for violation of any federal, state or local law, statute or regulation), or any claim against you by Studio (individually and/or collectively, “Claim(s)”) shall be submitted to an
impartial mediator (“Mediator”) selected jointly by the parties. Both parties shall attend a mediation conference in Los Angeles County, California and attempt to resolve any and all Claims. If the parties are not able to resolve all
Claims, then upon written demand for arbitration to the other party, which demand shall be made within a reasonable time after the Claim has arisen, any unresolved Claims shall be determined by final and binding arbitration in Los Angeles,
California, in accordance with the Model Employment Procedures of the American Arbitration Association (collectively, “Rules”) by a neutral arbitrator experienced in employment law, licensed to practice law in California, in accordance
with the Rules, except as herein specified. In no event shall the demand for arbitration be made after the date when the institution of legal and/or equitable proceedings based upon such Claim would be barred by the applicable statute of
limitations. Each party to the arbitration will be entitled to be represented by counsel and will have the opportunity to take depositions in Los Angeles, California of any opposing party or witnesses selected by such party and/or request production
of documents by the opposing party before the arbitration hearing. By mutual agreement of the parties, additional depositions may be taken at other locations. In addition, upon a party’s showing of need for additional discovery, the arbitrator
shall have discretion to order such additional discovery. You acknowledge and agree that you are familiar with and fully understand the need for preserving the confidentiality of Studio’s agreements with third parties and compensation of
Studio’s employees. Accordingly, you hereby agree that to the extent the arbitrator determines that documents, correspondence or other writings (or portions thereof) whether internal or from any third party, relating in any way to your
agreements with third parties and/or compensation of other employees are necessary to the determination of any Claim, you and/or your representatives may discover and examine such documents, correspondence or other writings only after execution of
an appropriate confidentiality agreement. Each party shall have the right to subpoena witnesses and documents for the arbitration hearing. A court reporter shall record all arbitration proceedings. With respect to any Claim brought to arbitration
hereunder, either party may be entitled to recover whatever damages would otherwise be available to that party in any legal proceeding based upon the federal and/or state law applicable to the matter. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision
setting forth the award and the findings and/or conclusions upon which such award is based. The decision of the arbitrator may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction by either Studio or you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
result of any such arbitration shall be binding but shall not be made public (including by filing a petition to confirm the arbitration award), unless necessary to confirm such arbitration award after non-payment of the award for a period of at
least fifteen (15) days after notice to Studio of the arbitrator’s decision. Each party shall pay the fees of their respective attorneys (except as otherwise

awarded by the arbitrator), the expenses of their witnesses, and all other expenses connected with presenting their Claims or defense(s). Other costs of arbitration shall be borne by Studio.
Except as set forth below, should you or Studio pursue any Claim covered by this Paragraph 24 by any method other than said arbitration, the responding party shall be entitled to recover from the other party all damages, costs, expenses, and
reasonable outside attorneys’ fees incurred as a result of such action. The provisions contained in this Paragraph 24 shall survive the termination of your employment with Studio. Notwithstanding anything set forth above, you agree that any
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement (particularly, but without limitation, with respect to Paragraphs 3 and 8, above) may result in irreparable injury to Studio, and therefore, in addition to the procedures set forth above, Studio may be
entitled to file suit in a court of competent jurisdiction to seek a Temporary Restraining Order and/or preliminary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief to prevent a breach or contemplated breach of such provisions. 
 25. Change of Control. 
 a. Except as set forth in Paragraph 25.b below, in the event of a “change of control” all unvested equity-based compensation held by you shall remain unvested and shall continue to vest in
accordance with its terms, without regard to the occurrence of the change of control; provided, however, that unless provision is made in connection with the change of control for (i) assumption of such outstanding equity-based compensation or
(ii) substitution for such equity-based compensation of new awards covering stock of a successor corporation or its “parent corporation” (as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code) or “subsidiary corporation” (as defined
in Section 424(f) of the Code) with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares and the exercise price, if applicable, in each case, that preserve the material terms and conditions of such outstanding equity-based compensation
as in effect immediately prior to the change of control (including, without limitation, with respect to the vesting schedules, the intrinsic value of the awards (if any) as of the change of control and transferability of the shares underlying such
awards), all such equity-based compensation shall accelerate vesting (on the basis that any mid-range or “target” goals rather than premium goals are deemed to have been achieved) immediately prior to such change of control, in which case,
all outstanding restricted stock units (whether subject to time-based or performance-based vesting criteria) will be settled not later than the tenth (10th) day following the date of such change of control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that payment of any amount that would otherwise be paid pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence would result in a violation of Section 409A, then even though your rights to payment of such amount will become vested
pursuant to such proviso and the amount of such payment will be determined as of the change of control, such amount will not be paid to you until the earliest time permitted under Section 409A. 
 b. In the event that, during the 12-month period following a change of control, your employment is terminated by Studio other than for cause
or by you for good reason, then notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement between you and Studio, all equity-based compensation held by you shall accelerate vesting (on the basis that any mid-range or “target”
goals rather than premium goals are deemed to have been

  

 12 

 
achieved) and, subject to the other terms and conditions of the grants, remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the grant. All outstanding restricted stock units (whether subject to
time-based or performance-based vesting criteria) will be settled not later than the tenth (10th) day following the date of termination of your employment. 
 c. For purposes of this Agreement, “change of control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) during any period of fourteen (14) consecutive calendar months, individuals who were directors of Studio on the
first day of such period (the “Incumbent Directors”) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors of Studio (the “Board”); provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the
first day of such period whose election, or nomination for election, by Studio’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors shall be considered as though such individual were an Incumbent Director, but
excluding, for purposes of this proviso, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened proxy contest with respect to election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation
of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a “person” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (each, a “Person”), in each case other than the
management of Studio, the Board or the holders of Studio’s Class B common stock par value $0.01; 
 (ii) the
consummation of (A) a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving (x) Studio or (y) any of its subsidiaries, but in the case of this clause (y) only if Studio Voting
Securities (as defined below) are issued or issuable (each of the events referred to in this clause (A) being hereinafter referred to as a “Reorganization”) or (B) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the
assets of Studio to an entity that is not an affiliate (a “Sale”), in each such case, if such Reorganization or Sale requires the approval of Studio’s stockholders under the law of Studio’s jurisdiction of organization (whether
such approval is required for such Reorganization or Sale or for the issuance of securities of Studio in such Reorganization or Sale), unless, immediately following such Reorganization or Sale, (1) all or substantially all the individuals and
entities who were the “beneficial owners” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (or a successor rule thereto)) of the securities eligible to vote for the election of the Board (“Studio Voting Securities”)
outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization or Sale beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the corporation resulting from such
Reorganization or Sale (including, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns Studio or all or substantially all Studio’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) (the “Continuing
Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization or Sale, of the outstanding Studio Voting Securities (excluding any outstanding voting securities of the
Continuing Corporation that such beneficial owners hold immediately following the consummation of the Reorganization or Sale as a result of their ownership prior to such consummation of voting securities of any company or other entity involved in or
forming

  

 13 

 
part of such Reorganization or Sale other than Studio), (2) no Person (excluding (x) any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Continuing Corporation
or any corporation controlled by the Continuing Corporation, (y) Jeffrey Katzenberg and (z) David Geffen) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 40% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the
Continuing Corporation and (3) at least 50% of the members of the board of directors of the Continuing Corporation were Incumbent Directors at the time of the execution of the definitive agreement providing for such Reorganization or Sale or,
in the absence of such an agreement, at the time at which approval of the Board was obtained for such Reorganization or Sale; 
 (iii) the stockholders of Studio approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of Studio; or 
 (iv) any Person, corporation or other entity or “group” (as used in Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (other than (A) Studio, (B) any trustee or other fiduciary holding
securities under an employee benefit plan of Studio or an affiliate or (C) any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of Studio in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the voting power of Studio Voting
Securities) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of Studio representing 40% or more of the combined voting power of Studio Voting Securities but only if the percentage so owned exceeds the aggregate percentage of the
combined voting power of Studio Voting Securities then owned, directly or indirectly, by Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen; provided, however, that for purposes of this subparagraph (iv), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a
change of control: (x) any acquisition directly from Studio or (y) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by Studio or an Affiliate. 
 d. In the event that it is determined that any payment (other than the Gross-Up Payments provided for in this Paragraph 25.d) or
distribution by Studio or any of its affiliates to you or for your benefit, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to or by reason of any other agreement, policy, plan, program or
arrangement, including without limitation any stock option or similar right, or the lapse or termination of any restriction on or the vesting or exercisability of any of the foregoing (a “Payment”), would be subject to the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto), by reason of being considered “contingent on a change in the ownership or effective control” of Studio, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (or
any successor provision thereto) or to any similar tax imposed by state or local law, or any interest or penalties with respect to such tax (such tax or taxes, together with any such interest and penalties, being hereafter collectively referred to
as the “Excise Tax”), then subject to Paragraphs 25.e and f, you will be entitled to receive (or have paid to the applicable taxing authority on your behalf) an additional payment or payments (collectively, a “Gross-Up Payment”).
Any Gross-Up Payment that you become entitled to pursuant to this Paragraph 25.d will be paid to you (or to the applicable taxing authority on your behalf) as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than the last day of the calendar year
after the calendar year in which the applicable

  

 14 

 
Excise Tax is paid. The Gross-Up Payment will be in an amount such that, after payment by you of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including any
Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, you retain (or receive the benefit of a payment to the applicable taxing authority of) an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payment. For purposes of determining the
amount of the Gross-Up Payment, you will be considered to pay (i) federal income taxes at the highest generally applicable rate (plus any applicable Excise Tax) in effect in the year in which the Gross-Up Payment will be made and
(ii) state and local income taxes at the highest generally applicable rate (plus any applicable Excise Tax) in effect in the state or locality in which the Gross-Up Payment would be subject to state or local tax, net of the maximum reduction in
federal income tax that could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. 
 e. Notwithstanding any provision of
the foregoing Paragraph 25.d, if it shall be determined (by the reasonable computation by a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm that shall be selected by Studio (the “Accountant”), which determination shall be certified
by the Accountant and set forth in a certificate delivered to you) that the aggregate amount of the payments, distributions, benefits and entitlements of any type payable by Studio or any affiliate to or for your benefit (including any payment,
distribution, benefit or entitlement made by any person or entity effecting a change of control), in each case, that could be considered “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (such payments, the
“Parachute Payments”) that, but for this Paragraph 25.e, would be payable to you, does not exceed 110% of the greatest amount of Parachute Payments that could be paid to you without giving rise to any liability for the Excise Tax in
connection therewith (such greatest amount, the “Floor Amount”), then: (A) no Gross-Up Payment shall be made to you; and (B) the aggregate amount of Parachute Payments payable to you shall be reduced (but not below the Floor
Amount) to the largest amount which would both (1) not cause any Excise Tax to be payable by you, and (2) not cause any portion of the Parachute Payments to become nondeductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code (or any successor
provision). You shall be permitted to provide Studio with written notice specifying which of the Parachute Payments will be subject to reduction or elimination; provided, however, that to the extent that your ability to exercise such authority would
cause any Parachute Payment to become subject to any taxes or penalties pursuant to Section 409A, or if you do not provide Studio with any such written notice, Studio shall reduce or eliminate the Parachute Payments by first reducing or
eliminating the portion of the Parachute Payments that are payable in cash and then by reducing or eliminating the non-cash portion of the Parachute Payments, in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which are to be paid the
farthest in time from the date of the Accountant’s determination. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, any notice given by you pursuant to the preceding sentence shall take precedence over the provisions of any other plan, arrangement
or agreement governing your rights and entitlements to any benefits or compensation. 
 f. Notwithstanding any provision of
Paragraphs 25.d and e, in the event that any two of the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer of Studio shall enter into any agreement pursuant to which such executives are no longer provided a gross-up payment as a result
of any Excise Tax, then you shall no longer be entitled to a Gross-Up Payment pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. 
  

 15 

 26. Miscellaneous. You agree that Studio may deduct and withhold from your
compensation hereunder the amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the provisions of the Federal and California Income Tax Acts, Federal Insurance Contributions Act, California Unemployment Insurance Act, any and all amendments thereto,
and other statutes heretofore or hereafter enacted requiring the withholding of compensation. All of Studio’s obligations in this Agreement are expressly conditioned upon you completing and delivering to Studio an Employment Eligibility Form
(“Form I-9”) (in form satisfactory to Studio) and in connection therewith, you submitting to Studio original documentation demonstrating your employment eligibility. 
 27. Section 409A. 
 a. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements
for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. 
 b. Neither you nor any of your creditors or beneficiaries shall have
the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Agreement or under any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement of or with Studio or any of its affiliates (this Agreement and such other
plans, policies, arrangements and agreements, the “Company Plans”) to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred
compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to you or for your benefit under any Company Plan may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by you to Studio or any of it affiliates. 
 c. If, at the time of your separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A), (i) you shall be a specified employee
(within the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by Studio from time to time) and (ii) Studio shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable under a Company Plan constitutes deferred
compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A, then Studio (or
its affiliate, as applicable) shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead accumulate such amount and pay it, together with interest credited at the Applicable Federal Rate in effect as of the date of your
termination of employment, on the first business day after such six-month period. 
 d. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement or any Company Plan to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, Studio reserves the right to make amendments to any Company Plan as Studio deems necessary or desirable to avoid
the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any case, except as provided in Paragraph 25.d of this Agreement, you are solely responsible

  

 16 

 
and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on you or for your account in connection with any Company Plan (including any taxes and penalties under
Section 409A), and neither Studio nor any affiliate shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. 
 e. For purposes of Section 409A, each of (i) the installments at a rate equal to 50% of your Base Salary, as provided in Paragraph 9, and (ii) the installments of continued Base Salary, as
provided in Paragraphs 10 and 12, will be deemed to be a separate payment as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii).

letter and return it to the undersigned, whereupon this letter shall constitute a binding agreement between us.

 18Employment Agreement - Andrew Chang

 Exhibit 10.68 
 DREAMWORKS ANIMATION SKG, INC. 
 1000 FLOWER STREET 
 GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA 91201 
 February 18, 2010 
 J. Andrew Chang 
 c/o Munger, Tolles &
Olsen LLP 
 355 South Grand Avenue, Suite 3500 
 Los Angeles, CA 90071 
 Attention: Robert Knauss, Esq. 
 Dear Andrew: 
 Upon the Commencement Date (as defined below), DreamWorks Animation
SKG, Inc. (“Studio”) agrees to employ you and you agree to accept such employment upon the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement (“Agreement”). Upon Studio’s receipt of executed copies (in form and substance
satisfactory to Studio) of this Agreement, this Agreement shall supersede the executed Employment Agreement dated as of October 1, 2009 (the “Prior Agreement”) between DreamWorks Animation L.L.C. and you, and the Prior Agreement shall
be deemed terminated effective as of the date hereof. Studio shall have no obligation under this Agreement unless and until Studio has received from Employee a fully executed copy of this Agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to Studio).

 1. Term. The term of your employment hereunder shall commence on January 2, 2010 (the “Commencement
Date”) and shall, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, continue up to and including January 1, 2013 (the “Employment Term”). 
 2. Duties/Responsibilities. 
 a. General. Your title shall be General Counsel. 
 b. Services.
During the Employment Term you shall render your exclusive full-time business services to Studio and/or its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates in accordance with the reasonable directions and instructions of the President of Studio, all as
hereinafter set forth. You shall report to the President of Employer (currently, Lewis Coleman). 
 3.
Exclusivity. You shall not during the Employment Term perform services for any person, firm or corporation (hereinafter referred to collectively as a “person”) without the prior written consent of Studio and will not engage
in any activity which would interfere with the performance of your services hereunder, or become financially interested in any other person engaged in the production, distribution or exhibition of motion pictures

 
or television programs (including, without limitation, motion pictures produced for, distributed to or exhibited on free, cable, pay, satellite and/or subscription television, music and/or
interactive), anywhere in the world. Nothing contained herein shall prevent you from owning publicly traded minority stock interests not to exceed five percent (5%), limited partnership interests or other passive investment interests in businesses
performing any of the aforesaid activities. Nothing contained herein shall prevent you from rendering services in connection with charitable activities on a pro bono basis, provided such services do not interfere with the performance of your
full-time services hereunder and are otherwise consistent with the Company’s general policies and procedures (including its conflict-of-interest policy). 
 4. Compensation. 
 a. Base Salary. For all services rendered
under this Agreement, Studio will pay you a yearly base salary (the “Base Salary”) at a rate of Four Hundred Sixty Thousand Dollars ($460,000.00) for each full year of the Employment Term. The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance
with Studio’s applicable payroll practices. Promptly following execution of this Agreement, Studio shall make a one-time cash payment in order to reflect the Commencement Date as the effective date of the Base Salary. 
 b. Cash Incentive and Equity-Based Compensation. 
 (i) You will be eligible, while you remain employed hereunder, subject to annual approval by the Compensation Committee of
the Board of Directors of Studio (the “Compensation Committee”), to receive an annual cash bonus award pursuant to the terms of the Studio’s short-term incentive plan. It is Studio’s present expectation that such annual awards
will have a target value of $190,000. For the avoidance of doubt, such annual award will have a target value of $190,000 for the 2010 calendar year. If your employment is terminated at the end of the Employment Term for any reason other than
“cause” (as defined in Section 11) or on account of incapacity, you will be entitled to receive the same annual cash bonus that you would have received for any complete or partial fiscal year (pro-rated based on the number of days you
worked in any partial fiscal year) of the Employment Term if you had remained an employee through the date on which the annual cash bonuses are paid, computed in the same manner generally used in determining the annual cash bonuses of the
Company’s other executive officers. 
 (ii) In addition, you will be eligible while you remain employed
hereunder, subject to annual approval by the Compensation Committee, to receive annual equity incentive awards, commencing in October 2010, consistent with other senior executives subject to Compensation Committee approval. It is Studio’s
present expectation that such annual awards will have an annual aggregate grant-date value targeted at $300,000 and shall vest over four (4) years from the date of grant. 
 5. Benefits. In addition to the foregoing, during the period of your employment with Studio hereunder, you shall be entitled
to participate in such other, medical, dental and life insurance, 401(k), pension and other benefit plans as Studio may have or establish from

  

 2 

 
time to time for its most senior executives. In addition, Studio shall cover the cost of personal financial consulting services to you. During the Employment Term, unless earlier terminated as
set forth below, you shall be entitled to coverage in accordance with Studio’s standard leave of absence policy and shall be entitled to vacation days and/or personal days to be taken subject to the demands of Studio (as determined by Studio)
and consistent with the amount of days taken by other senior level executives; provided, however, no vacation time will be accrued during the Employment Term. The foregoing, however, shall not be construed to require Studio to establish any such
plans or to prevent the modification or termination of such plans once established, and no such action or failure thereof shall affect this Agreement. 
 6. Business Expenses. Studio shall reimburse you for business expenses on a regular basis in accordance with its policy regarding the reimbursement of such expenses for executives of like
stature to you (including travel, at Studio’s request (which, in accordance with Studio policy, is currently first class)). Expenses shall be eligible for reimbursement hereunder to the extent that they are incurred by you during the period of
your employment with Studio pursuant to this Agreement. All reimbursable expenses shall be reimbursed to you as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than the last day of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the expenses
are incurred, and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year. 
 7. Indemnification. You shall be fully indemnified and held harmless by Studio to the fullest extent permitted by law from any
claim, liability, loss, cost or expense of any nature (including attorney’s fees of counsel selected by you, judgments, fines, any amounts paid or to be paid in any settlement, and all costs of any nature) incurred by you (all such
indemnification to be on an “after-tax” or “gross-up” basis) which arises, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part out of any alleged or actual conduct, action or inaction on your part in or in connection with or related in
any manner to your status as an employee, agent, officer, corporate director, member, manager, shareholder, partner of, or your provision of services to, Studio or any of its affiliated entities, or any entity to which you are providing services on
behalf of Studio or which may be doing business with Studio. To the maximum extent allowed by law, all amounts to be indemnified hereunder including reasonable attorneys’ fees shall be promptly advanced by Studio until such time, if ever, as it
is determined by final decision pursuant to Paragraph 24 below that you are not entitled to indemnification hereunder (whereupon you shall reimburse Studio for all sums theretofore advanced). Any tax gross-up payments that you become entitled to
receive pursuant to this Paragraph 7 will be paid to you (or to the applicable taxing authority on your behalf) as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than the last day of the calendar year after the calendar year in which you remit
the related taxes. 
 8. Covenants. 
 a. Confidential Information. You agree that you shall not, during the Employment Term or at any time thereafter, use for your own purposes, or disclose to, or for any benefit of any third party,
any trade secret or other confidential information of Studio or

  

 3 

 
any of its affiliates (except as may be required by law or in the performance of your duties hereunder consistent with Studio’s policies) and that you will comply with any confidentiality
obligations of Studio known by you to a third party, whether under agreement or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, confidential information shall be deemed not to include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the
public other than as a result of a disclosure by you or any other person who directly or indirectly receives such information from you or at your direction or (ii) is or becomes available to you on a non-confidential basis from a source which
you reasonably believe is entitled to disclose it to you. 
 b. Studio Ownership. The results and proceeds of your
services hereunder, including, without limitation, any works of authorship resulting from your services during your employment and any works in progress, shall be works-made-for-hire and Studio shall be deemed the sole owner throughout the universe
of any and all rights of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized or developed, with the right to use the same in perpetuity in any manner Studio determines in its sole discretion without
any further payment to you whatsoever. If, for any reason, any of such results and proceeds shall not legally be a work-for-hire and/or there are any rights which do not accrue to Studio under the preceding sentence, then you hereby irrevocably
assign and agree to assign any and all of your right, title and interest thereto, including, without limitation, any and all copyrights, patents, trade secrets, trademarks and/or other rights of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or
hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized or developed by Studio, and Studio shall have the right to use the same in perpetuity throughout the universe in any manner Studio may deem useful or desirable to establish or document
Studio’s exclusive ownership of any and all rights in any such results and proceeds, including, without limitation, the execution of appropriate copyright and/or patent applications or assignments. To the extent that you have any rights in the
results and proceeds of your services that cannot be assigned in the manner described above, you unconditionally and irrevocably waive the enforcement of such rights. This Paragraph 8.b is subject to, and shall not be deemed to limit, restrict, or
constitute any waiver by Studio of any rights of ownership to which Studio may be entitled by operation of law by virtue of Studio or any of its affiliates being your employer. 
 c. Return of Property. All documents, data, recordings, or other property, whether tangible or intangible, including all information
stored in electronic form, obtained or prepared by or for you and utilized by you in the course of your employment with Studio or any of its affiliates shall remain the exclusive property of Studio. In the event of the termination of your employment
for any reason, and subject to any other provisions hereof, Studio reserves the right, subject to Paragraph 27.b, to the extent required by law, and in addition to any other remedy Studio may have, to deduct from any monies otherwise payable to you
the following: (i) the full amount of any specifically determined debt you owe to Studio or any of its affiliates at the time of or subsequent to the termination of your employment with Studio, and (ii) the value of Studio property which
you retain in your possession after the termination of your employment with Studio following Studio’s written request for such item(s) return and your failure to return such items within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice. In the
event that the law of any state or other jurisdiction requires the consent of an employee for such deductions, this Agreement shall serve as such consent. 
  

 4 

 d. Promise Not To Solicit. You will not, during the period of the Employment Term or
for the period ending one (1) year after the earlier of expiration of the Employment Term or your termination hereunder, induce or attempt to induce any employees, exclusive consultants, exclusive contractors or exclusive representatives of
Studio (or those of any of its affiliates) to stop working for, contracting with or representing Studio or any of its affiliates or to work for, contract with or represent any of Studio’s (or its affiliates’) competitors. 
 9. Incapacity. 
 a. In the event you are unable to perform the services required of you hereunder as a result of a physical or mental disability and such disability shall continue for a period of ninety (90) or more
consecutive days or an aggregate of four (4) or more months during any twelve (12) month period during the Employment Term, Studio shall have the right, at its option and subject to applicable state and federal law, to terminate your
employment hereunder, and Studio shall only be obligated to pay you (a) for a period commencing on the termination of your employment by Studio and ending on the earlier of the expiration of the Employment Term and the second anniversary of the
termination of your employment, payments at a rate equal to 50% of your rate of Base Salary, and, except as otherwise provided in this Paragraph 9.a, such payments will be payable in accordance with Studio’s regular payroll practices applicable
to similarly situated active employees, and (b) any additional compensation (including, without limitation, any grants of equity-based compensation made to you on or prior to the date of termination (it being understood you will not be entitled
to receive any grants of equity-based compensation thereafter) as determined pursuant to Paragraph 9.b below, and expense reimbursement for expenses incurred prior to your termination) earned by you prior to the termination of your employment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, you further will be entitled to continuation of medical, dental, life insurance, and financial counseling benefits (collectively, excluding disability insurance, the “Continued Benefits”) for a
period of twelve (12) months after termination of your employment pursuant to this paragraph (but not to exceed the end of the then-current Employment Term); provided; however, that nothing in this sentence is intended to
discontinue any short-term or long-term disability insurance benefits you are receiving or may become eligible to receive as a result of the disability resulting in termination of your employment pursuant to this paragraph. Except as specifically
permitted by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations thereunder as in effect from time to time (collectively, hereinafter, “Section 409A”), the Continued Benefits
provided to you during any calendar year will not affect the Continued Benefits to be provided to you in any other calendar year. With respect to any Continued Benefits for which you may become eligible under this Paragraph 9.a or otherwise under
this Agreement, if requested by Studio during any continuation period you shall elect to treat such Continued Benefits as being provided pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986
(“COBRA”) or any similar applicable federal or state statute. Whenever

  

 5 

 
compensation is payable to you hereunder, during or with respect to a time when you are partially or totally disabled and such disability (except for the provisions hereof) would entitle you to
disability income or to salary continuation payments from Studio according to the terms of any plan now or hereafter provided by Studio or according to any policy of Studio in effect at the time of such disability, the compensation payable to you
hereunder shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by any such disability income or salary continuation and shall not be in addition thereto. If disability income is payable directly to you by an insurance company under an insurance policy paid
for by Studio, the compensation payable to you hereunder shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amounts paid to you by said insurance company and shall not be in addition thereto. 
 b. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable equity compensation plan of Studio (each such plan, a
“Plan”) or in the agreement evidencing the grant, in each case as of the date of the grant, after termination of employment pursuant to Paragraph 9.a, your grants of equity-based compensation will be determined as follows. For
purposes of this Agreement, an award will be deemed to have vested when it is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(d)). With respect to grants having performance-based
vesting criteria, the amount of such award that is eligible to vest will be determined after the end of the performance period specified in the grant, or satisfaction of such other criteria pursuant to the Plan, subject to the applicable performance
or other criteria, as if you had continued to remain employed with Studio throughout such performance period. With respect to grants having time-based vesting criteria, the full amount of such award will be eligible to vest. A ratable portion of the
amount of each award that is eligible to vest will become vested by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of (i) your actual period of service in months through the date of termination plus (ii) the
lesser of (A) twelve (12) months or (B) 50% of the remaining Employment Term in months determined as of the date of termination (but in no event will the numerator exceed the denominator), and the denominator of which is the total
performance period in months (for grants having performance-based vesting criteria) or the total vesting period in months (for grants having time-based vesting criteria) specified in the grant. To avoid any double-counting, any part of any
equity-based compensation award that has vested in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement shall be credited against any part of such award that you shall be entitled to receive or exercise pursuant to the determination set forth
in the proceeding sentence. The balance of such awards will be forfeited. Subject to this Paragraph 9.b and to the other terms and conditions of the grants, all stock options and any similar equity-based awards will remain exercisable for the
remaining term of the grant. In the case of restricted stock units that are subject to performance-based vesting criteria, except as otherwise set forth in Paragraph 25, such awards will be settled on the seventieth (70th) day after the date that such awards become vested. With
respect to restricted stock units that are subject to time-based vesting criteria, such awards will be settled within thirty (30) days following your termination of employment. 
 10. Death. If you die prior to the end of the Employment Term, this Agreement shall be terminated as of the date of death and
your beneficiary or estate shall be entitled to receive (a) your Base Salary accrued up to and including the date of death and, thereafter,

  

 6 

 
for a period commencing on such date and ending on the earlier of the expiration of the Employment Term and the first anniversary of such date, continued Base Salary payable in accordance with
Studio’s regular payroll practices applicable to similarly situated active employees, (b) equity-based compensation to be determined in the same manner and at the same time as provided in Paragraph 9.b, under and in accordance with
any Plan, and (c) all other benefits pro-rated up to the date on which the death occurs. 
 11. Termination for
Cause. Studio shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time for cause. As used herein, the term “cause” shall mean (i) misappropriation of any material funds or property of Studio or any of its related
companies; (ii) failure to obey reasonable and material orders given by the President of Studio or by the board of directors of Studio (iii) any material breach of this Agreement by you; (iv) conviction of or entry of a plea of guilty
or nolo contendre to a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (v) any willful act, or failure to act, by you in bad faith to the material detriment of Studio; or (vi) material non-compliance with established Studio policies
and guidelines (after which you have been informed in writing of such policies and guidelines and you have failed to cure such non-compliance); provided that in each such case (other than (i) or (iv) or a willful failure in (ii) or
repeated breaches, failures or acts of the same type or nature) prompt written notice of such cause is given to you by specifying in reasonable detail the facts giving rise thereto and that continuation thereof will result in termination of
employment, and such cause is not cured within ten (10) business days after receipt by you of the first such notice. If you are terminated as set forth in this Paragraph 11, then payment of the specified Base Salary and any additional
noncontingent cash compensation (including, without limitation, any equity-based compensation which has vested and expense reimbursement for expenses incurred prior to your termination) theretofore earned by you shall be payment in full of all
compensation payable hereunder. If Studio terminated you hereunder, then you shall immediately reimburse Studio for all paid but unearned sums. 
 12. Involuntary Termination. Studio may terminate your employment other than for cause or on account of incapacity, in which case you will receive, for a period equal to the Continuation
Period (as defined below), (i) continued Base Salary payable in accordance with Studio’s regular payroll practices applicable to similarly situated active employees, and (ii) Continued Benefits. In the event that any cash bonuses have
been paid to you during the Employment Term for your service beginning on or after January 1, 2010, you shall also be entitled to receive, with respect to each complete or partial calendar year prior to the expiration of the Continuation Period
with respect to which, as of the date of termination of your employment, Studio has not yet paid annual cash bonuses (if any) under its short term incentive plan to similarly situated active employees (each such year, a “Bonus Entitlement
Year”), an annual cash payment (such payment, a “Bonus Equivalent Payment”) in an amount equal to the average annual cash bonuses (including any $0 bonuses) that have been paid (whether or not deferred) to you, if any, during the
Employment Term; provided, however, in the event that you are terminated, other than for cause or on account of incapacity, prior to the date in 2011 on which the Compensation Committee determines the annual cash bonuses for the Company’s other
executive officers (the “Bonus Determination Date”), then the Bonus Equivalent Payment shall be deemed to be the annual cash bonus

  

 7 

 
that you would have received had you remained an employee until the Bonus Determination Date (computed in the manner generally used in determining the annual cash bonuses of the Company’s
other executive officers). In the event that you become entitled to a Bonus Equivalent Payment in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Bonus Equivalent Payment will be made to you no earlier than January 1 and no later than
December 31 of the calendar year following the Bonus Entitlement Year to which such Bonus Equivalent Payment relates, and the Bonus Equivalent Payment relating to the calendar year for the last year of the Continuation Period shall be pro-rated
based on the number of days prior to the expiration of the Continuation Period during such calendar year. For purposes of this Paragraph 12, the term “Continuation Period” shall be defined as follows: (A) in the event that your
employment is terminated by Studio other than for cause or incapacity, unless such termination is during the 12-month period following a “change of control” (as defined in Paragraph 25), then “Continuation Period” shall mean the
period commencing on the date of such termination and ending on the expiration of the Employment Term and (B) in the event that your employment is terminated by Studio other than for cause or incapacity during the 12-month period following a
“change of control”, then “Continuation Period” shall mean the period commencing on the termination of your employment and ending on the later of the expiration of the Employment Term and the second anniversary of the termination
of your employment. In the event of termination of your employment without cause pursuant to this Paragraph 12, all the equity-based compensation held by you shall accelerate vesting (with respect to grants having performance-based vesting criteria,
on the basis that any mid-range or “target” goals rather than premium goals are deemed to have been achieved) and will, subject to the other terms and conditions of the grants, remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the grant;
however, you will not be entitled to receive any future equity-based compensation. All such outstanding restricted stock units (whether subject to time-based or performance-based vesting criteria) will be settled not later than thirty (30) days
following your termination of employment. If your services are terminated pursuant to this paragraph, you shall not be obligated to secure other employment to mitigate damages incurred by Studio or any payment due you as a result of your termination
hereunder; provided that any compensation earned from any employment obtained by you during the remainder of the Continuation Period will reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis Studio’s payment obligations under this Agreement, except if your
services are terminated following a “change of control”. You agree that you will have no rights or remedies in the event of your termination without cause other than those set forth in the Agreement to the maximum extent required by law.

 13. Termination for Good Reason. You shall be entitled to terminate your employment at any time for “good
reason.” As used herein, the term “good reason” shall mean only: (i) any material breach of this Agreement by Studio; (ii) any diminution in title; (iii) failure to be the most senior legal officer of the Company;
(iv) any time that Studio shall direct or require that you report to any person other than the President of the Studio; or (v) any time that Studio shall direct or require that your principal place of business be anywhere other than the
Los Angeles area. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, you will not be entitled to terminate your employment for good reason for purposes of this Agreement as the result of any event specified in the foregoing clauses
(i) through (v) unless, within ninety (90) days following the occurrence of such event, you give Studio

  

 8 

 
written notice of the occurrence of such event, which notice sets forth the exact nature of the event and the conduct required to cure such event. Studio shall have thirty (30) days from the
receipt of such notice within which to cure (such period, the “Cure Period”). If, during the Cure Period, such event is remedied, then you will not be permitted to terminate your employment for good reason as a result of such event. If, at
the end of the Cure Period, the event that constitutes good reason has not been remedied, you will be entitled to terminate your employment for good reason during the sixty (60) day period that follows the end of the Cure Period. If you do not
terminate your employment during such sixty (60) day period, you will not be permitted to terminate your employment for good reason as a result of such event. In the event of your voluntary termination for good reason, you shall be entitled to
the payments, benefits (including the post-term continuation of the applicable benefits) and equity-based compensation provided under Paragraph 12 for involuntary termination without cause. If your services are terminated pursuant to this paragraph,
you shall not be obligated to secure other employment to mitigate damages incurred by Studio or any payment due you as a result of your termination hereunder. You agree that you will have no rights or remedies in the event of your termination for
good reason other than those set forth in the Agreement to the maximum extent allowed by law. 
 14.
Name/Likeness. During the Employment Term, Studio shall have the right to use your name, biography and likeness in connection with its business as follows: You shall promptly submit to Studio a biography of yourself. Provided that you
timely submit such biography, Studio shall not use any other biographical information other than contained in such biography so furnished, other than references to your prior professional services and your services hereunder, without your prior
approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). If you fail to promptly submit a biography, then you shall not have the right to approve any biographical material used by Studio. You shall have the right to approve any likeness of you
used by Studio. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to authorize the use of your name, biography or likeness to endorse any product or service or to use the same for similar commercial purposes. 
 15. Section 317 and 508 of the Federal Communications Act. You represent that you have not accepted or given, nor will
you accept or give, directly or indirectly, any money, services or other valuable consideration from or to anyone other than Studio for the inclusion of any matter as part of any film, television program or other production produced, distributed
and/or developed by Studio and/or any of its affiliates. 
 16. Equal Opportunity Employer. You acknowledge that
Studio is an equal opportunity employer. You agree that you will comply with Studio policies regarding employment practices and with applicable federal, state and local laws prohibiting discrimination or harassment. 
 17. Notices. All notices required to be given hereunder shall be given in writing, by personal delivery or by mail and
confirmed by fax at the respective addresses of the parties hereto set forth above, or at such address as may be designated in writing by either party, and in the case of Studio, to the attention of the General Counsel of Studio. A courtesy copy of
any notice to you hereunder shall be sent to Munger, Tolles & Olson LLP,

  

 9 

 
355 South Grand Avenue, 35th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90071-1560, Facsimile: (213) 683-5137, Attention: Robert B. Knauss, Esq. Any notice given by mail shall be deemed to have been given three
(3) business days following such mailing. 
 18. Assignment. This is an Agreement for the performance of
personal services by you and may not be assigned by you (other than the right to receive payments which may be assigned to a company, trust or foundation owned or controlled by you) and any purported assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be
deemed null and void. Studio may assign this Agreement or all or any part of its rights hereunder to any entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Studio and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of such assignee, provided
your duties do not materially change. 
 19. California Law. This Agreement and all matters or issues collateral
thereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts entered into and performed entirely therein. 
 20. No Implied Contract. The parties intend to be bound only upon execution of this Agreement and no negotiation, exchange or draft or partial performance shall be deemed to imply an agreement. Neither the continuation of
employment nor any other conduct shall be deemed to imply a continuing agreement upon the expiration of this Agreement. 
 21.
Entire Understanding. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter herein contained, and can be changed only by a writing signed by both parties hereto. 
 22. Void Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement, as applied to either party or to any circumstances, shall be adjudged
by a court to be void or unenforceable, the same shall be deemed stricken from this Agreement and shall in no way affect any other provision of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement. In the event any such provision (the
“Applicable Provision”) is so adjudged void or unenforceable, you and Studio shall take the following actions in the following order: (i) seek judicial reformation of the Applicable Provision; (ii) negotiate in good faith with
each other to replace the Applicable Provision with a lawful provision; and (iii) have an arbitration as provided in Paragraph 24 hereof determine a lawful replacement provision for the Applicable Provision; provided, however,
that no such action pursuant to either of clauses (i) or (iii) above shall increase in any respect your obligations pursuant to the Applicable Provision. 
 23. Survival; Modification of Terms. Your obligations under Paragraph 8 hereof shall remain in full force and effect for the entire period provided therein, notwithstanding the termination
of the Employment Term pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof or otherwise. Studio’s obligations under Paragraphs 6 (with respect to expenses theretofore incurred), 7 and 25.d hereof shall survive indefinitely the termination of this Agreement
regardless of the reason for such termination. Further, Paragraphs 9, 10, 12 and 13 will continue to govern your entitlement, if any, to benefits and equity based compensation after the termination of the Employment Term, and Paragraph 24 will
continue to govern any Claims (as defined below) by one party against the other. 
  

 10 

 24. Arbitration of Disputes. Any controversy or claim by you against Studio or
any of its parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates (and/or officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents of Studio and such parent companies, subsidiaries and/or affiliates), including any controversy or claim arising from, out of or
relating to this Agreement, the breach thereof, or the employment or termination thereof of you by Studio which would give rise to a claim under federal, state or local law (including, but not limited to, claims based in tort or contract, claims for
discrimination under state or federal law, and/or claims for violation of any federal, state or local law, statute or regulation), or any claim against you by Studio (individually and/or collectively, “Claim(s)”) shall be submitted to an
impartial mediator (“Mediator”) selected jointly by the parties. Both parties shall attend a mediation conference in Los Angeles County, California and attempt to resolve any and all Claims. If the parties are not able to resolve all
Claims, then upon written demand for arbitration to the other party, which demand shall be made within a reasonable time after the Claim has arisen, any unresolved Claims shall be determined by final and binding arbitration in Los Angeles,
California, in accordance with the Model Employment Procedures of the American Arbitration Association (collectively, “Rules”) by a neutral arbitrator experienced in employment law, licensed to practice law in California, in accordance
with the Rules, except as herein specified. In no event shall the demand for arbitration be made after the date when the institution of legal and/or equitable proceedings based upon such Claim would be barred by the applicable statute of
limitations. Each party to the arbitration will be entitled to be represented by counsel and will have the opportunity to take depositions in Los Angeles, California of any opposing party or witnesses selected by such party and/or request production
of documents by the opposing party before the arbitration hearing. By mutual agreement of the parties, additional depositions may be taken at other locations. In addition, upon a party’s showing of need for additional discovery, the arbitrator
shall have discretion to order such additional discovery. You acknowledge and agree that you are familiar with and fully understand the need for preserving the confidentiality of Studio’s agreements with third parties and compensation of
Studio’s employees. Accordingly, you hereby agree that to the extent the arbitrator determines that documents, correspondence or other writings (or portions thereof) whether internal or from any third party, relating in any way to your
agreements with third parties and/or compensation of other employees are necessary to the determination of any Claim, you and/or your representatives may discover and examine such documents, correspondence or other writings only after execution of
an appropriate confidentiality agreement. Each party shall have the right to subpoena witnesses and documents for the arbitration hearing. A court reporter shall record all arbitration proceedings. With respect to any Claim brought to arbitration
hereunder, either party may be entitled to recover whatever damages would otherwise be available to that party in any legal proceeding based upon the federal and/or state law applicable to the matter. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision
setting forth the award and the findings and/or conclusions upon which such award is based. The decision of the arbitrator may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction by either Studio or you. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
result of any such arbitration shall be binding but shall not be made public (including by filing a petition to confirm the

  

 11 

 
arbitration award), unless necessary to confirm such arbitration award after non-payment of the award for a period of at least fifteen (15) days after notice to Studio of the
arbitrator’s decision. Each party shall pay the fees of their respective attorneys (except as otherwise awarded by the arbitrator), the expenses of their witnesses, and all other expenses connected with presenting their Claims or defense(s).
Other costs of arbitration shall be borne by Studio. Except as set forth below, should you or Studio pursue any Claim covered by this Paragraph 24 by any method other than said arbitration, the responding party shall be entitled to recover from the
other party all damages, costs, expenses, and reasonable outside attorneys’ fees incurred as a result of such action. The provisions contained in this Paragraph 24 shall survive the termination of your employment with Studio. Notwithstanding
anything set forth above, you agree that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement (particularly, but without limitation, with respect to Paragraphs 3 and 8, above) may result in irreparable injury to Studio, and therefore, in addition to
the procedures set forth above, Studio may be entitled to file suit in a court of competent jurisdiction to seek a Temporary Restraining Order and/or preliminary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief to prevent a breach or contemplated
breach of such provisions. 
 25. Change of Control. 
 a. Except as set forth in Paragraph 25.b below, in the event of a “change of control” all unvested equity-based compensation held
by you shall remain unvested and shall continue to vest in accordance with its terms, without regard to the occurrence of the change of control; provided, however, that unless provision is made in connection with the change of control for
(i) assumption of such outstanding equity-based compensation or (ii) substitution for such equity-based compensation of new awards covering stock of a successor corporation or its “parent corporation” (as defined in
Section 424(e) of the Code) or “subsidiary corporation” (as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code) with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares and the exercise price, if applicable, in each case, that
preserve the material terms and conditions of such outstanding equity-based compensation as in effect immediately prior to the change of control (including, without limitation, with respect to the vesting schedules, the intrinsic value of the awards
(if any) as of the change of control and transferability of the shares underlying such awards), all such equity-based compensation shall accelerate vesting (on the basis that any mid-range or “target” goals rather than premium goals are
deemed to have been achieved) immediately prior to such change of control, in which case, all outstanding restricted stock units (whether subject to time-based or performance-based vesting criteria) will be settled not later than the tenth
(10th) day following the date of such change of control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that payment of any amount that would otherwise be paid pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence would result in a
violation of Section 409A, then even though your rights to payment of such amount will become vested pursuant to such proviso and the amount of such payment will be determined as of the change of control, such amount will not be paid to you
until the earliest time permitted under Section 409A. 
  

 12 

 b. In the event that, during the 12-month period following a change of control, your
employment is terminated by Studio other than for cause or by you for good reason, then notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement between you and Studio, all equity-based compensation held by you shall accelerate vesting
(on the basis that any mid-range or “target” goals rather than premium goals are deemed to have been achieved) and, subject to the other terms and conditions of the grants, remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the grant. All
outstanding restricted stock units (whether subject to time-based or performance-based vesting criteria) will be settled not later than the tenth (10th) day following the date of termination of your employment. 
 c. For purposes of this Agreement, “change of control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) during any period of fourteen (14) consecutive calendar months, individuals who were directors of Studio on the
first day of such period (the “Incumbent Directors”) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors of Studio (the “Board”); provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the
first day of such period whose election, or nomination for election, by Studio’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors shall be considered as though such individual were an Incumbent Director, but
excluding, for purposes of this proviso, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened proxy contest with respect to election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation
of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a “person” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (each, a “Person”), in each case other than the
management of Studio, the Board or the holders of Studio’s Class B common stock par value $0.01; 
 (ii) the
consummation of (A) a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving (x) Studio or (y) any of its subsidiaries, but in the case of this clause (y) only if Studio Voting
Securities (as defined below) are issued or issuable (each of the events referred to in this clause (A) being hereinafter referred to as a “Reorganization”) or (B) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the
assets of Studio to an entity that is not an affiliate (a “Sale”), in each such case, if such Reorganization or Sale requires the approval of Studio’s stockholders under the law of Studio’s jurisdiction of organization (whether
such approval is required for such Reorganization or Sale or for the issuance of securities of Studio in such Reorganization or Sale), unless, immediately following such Reorganization or Sale, (1) all or substantially all the individuals and
entities who were the “beneficial owners” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (or a successor rule thereto)) of the securities eligible to vote for the election of the Board (“Studio Voting Securities”)
outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization or Sale beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the corporation resulting from such
Reorganization or Sale (including, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns Studio or all or substantially all Studio’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) (the “Continuing
Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization or Sale, of the outstanding Studio Voting Securities (excluding any outstanding voting securities of the

  

 13 

 
Continuing Corporation that such beneficial owners hold immediately following the consummation of the Reorganization or Sale as a result of their ownership prior to such consummation of voting
securities of any company or other entity involved in or forming part of such Reorganization or Sale other than Studio), (2) no Person (excluding (x) any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Continuing
Corporation or any corporation controlled by the Continuing Corporation, (y) Jeffrey Katzenberg and (z) David Geffen) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 40% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the Continuing Corporation and (3) at least 50% of the members of the board of directors of the Continuing Corporation were Incumbent Directors at the time of the execution of the definitive agreement providing for such
Reorganization or Sale or, in the absence of such an agreement, at the time at which approval of the Board was obtained for such Reorganization or Sale; 
 (iii) the stockholders of Studio approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of Studio; or 
 (iv) any Person, corporation or other entity or “group” (as used in Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (other than (A) Studio, (B) any trustee or other fiduciary holding
securities under an employee benefit plan of Studio or an affiliate or (C) any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of Studio in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the voting power of Studio Voting
Securities) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of Studio representing 40% or more of the combined voting power of Studio Voting Securities but only if the percentage so owned exceeds the aggregate percentage of the
combined voting power of Studio Voting Securities then owned, directly or indirectly, by Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen; provided, however, that for purposes of this subparagraph (iv), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a
change of control: (x) any acquisition directly from Studio or (y) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by Studio or an Affiliate. 
 d. In the event that it is determined that any payment (other than the Gross-Up Payments provided for in this Paragraph 25.d) or
distribution by Studio or any of its affiliates to you or for your benefit, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to or by reason of any other agreement, policy, plan, program or
arrangement, including without limitation any stock option or similar right, or the lapse or termination of any restriction on or the vesting or exercisability of any of the foregoing (a “Payment”), would be subject to the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto), by reason of being considered “contingent on a change in the ownership or effective control” of Studio, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (or
any successor provision thereto) or to any similar tax imposed by state or local law, or any interest or penalties with respect to such tax (such tax or taxes, together with any such interest and penalties, being hereafter collectively referred to
as the “Excise Tax”), then subject to Paragraphs 25.e and f, you will be entitled to receive (or have paid to the applicable taxing authority on your behalf) an additional payment or payments (collectively, a “Gross-Up Payment”).
Any Gross-Up Payment that

  

 14 

 
you become entitled to pursuant to this Paragraph 25.d will be paid to you (or to the applicable taxing authority on your behalf) as promptly as practicable and in any event not later than the
last day of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the applicable Excise Tax is paid. The Gross-Up Payment will be in an amount such that, after payment by you of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to
such taxes), including any Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, you retain (or receive the benefit of a payment to the applicable taxing authority of) an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payment. For
purposes of determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, you will be considered to pay (i) federal income taxes at the highest generally applicable rate (plus any applicable Excise Tax) in effect in the year in which the Gross-Up Payment
will be made and (ii) state and local income taxes at the highest generally applicable rate (plus any applicable Excise Tax) in effect in the state or locality in which the Gross-Up Payment would be subject to state or local tax, net of the
maximum reduction in federal income tax that could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. 
 e.
Notwithstanding any provision of the foregoing Paragraph 25.d, if it shall be determined (by the reasonable computation by a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm that shall be selected by Studio (the “Accountant”), which
determination shall be certified by the Accountant and set forth in a certificate delivered to you) that the aggregate amount of the payments, distributions, benefits and entitlements of any type payable by Studio or any affiliate to or for your
benefit (including any payment, distribution, benefit or entitlement made by any person or entity effecting a change of control), in each case, that could be considered “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the
Code (such payments, the “Parachute Payments”) that, but for this Paragraph 25.e, would be payable to you, does not exceed 110% of the greatest amount of Parachute Payments that could be paid to you without giving rise to any liability for
the Excise Tax in connection therewith (such greatest amount, the “Floor Amount”), then: (A) no Gross-Up Payment shall be made to you; and (B) the aggregate amount of Parachute Payments payable to you shall be reduced (but not
below the Floor Amount) to the largest amount which would both (1) not cause any Excise Tax to be payable by you, and (2) not cause any portion of the Parachute Payments to become nondeductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code
(or any successor provision). You shall be permitted to provide Studio with written notice specifying which of the Parachute Payments will be subject to reduction or elimination; provided, however, that to the extent that your ability to exercise
such authority would cause any Parachute Payment to become subject to any taxes or penalties pursuant to Section 409A, or if you do not provide Studio with any such written notice, Studio shall reduce or eliminate the Parachute Payments by
first reducing or eliminating the portion of the Parachute Payments that are payable in cash and then by reducing or eliminating the non-cash portion of the Parachute Payments, in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which
are to be paid the farthest in time from the date of the Accountant’s determination. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, any notice given by you pursuant to the preceding sentence shall take precedence over the provisions of any
other plan, arrangement or agreement governing your rights and entitlements to any benefits or compensation. 
  

 15 

 f. Notwithstanding any provision of Paragraphs 25.d and e, in the event that any two of the
Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer of Studio shall enter into any agreement pursuant to which such executives are no longer provided a gross-up payment as a result of any Excise Tax, then you shall no longer be entitled
to a Gross-Up Payment pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. 
 26. Miscellaneous. You agree that Studio may
deduct and withhold from your compensation hereunder the amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the provisions of the Federal and California Income Tax Acts, Federal Insurance Contributions Act, California Unemployment Insurance Act, any
and all amendments thereto, and other statutes heretofore or hereafter enacted requiring the withholding of compensation. All of Studio’s obligations in this Agreement are expressly conditioned upon you completing and delivering to Studio an
Employment Eligibility Form (“Form I-9”) (in form satisfactory to Studio) and in connection therewith, you submitting to Studio original documentation demonstrating your employment eligibility. 
 27. Section 409A. 
 a. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements
for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. 
 b. Neither you nor any of your creditors or beneficiaries shall have
the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Agreement or under any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement of or with Studio or any of its affiliates (this Agreement and such other
plans, policies, arrangements and agreements, the “Company Plans”) to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred
compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to you or for your benefit under any Company Plan may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by you to Studio or any of it affiliates. 
 c. If, at the time of your separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A), (i) you shall be a specified employee
(within the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by Studio from time to time) and (ii) Studio shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable under a Company Plan constitutes deferred
compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A, then Studio (or
its affiliate, as applicable) shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead accumulate such amount and pay it, together with interest credited at the Applicable Federal Rate in effect as of the date of your
termination of employment, on the first business day after such six-month period.

 d. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Company Plan to the contrary, in
light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, Studio reserves the right to make amendments to any Company Plan as Studio deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under
Section 409A. In any case, except as provided in Paragraph 25.d of this Agreement, you are solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on you or for your account in connection with any
Company Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither Studio nor any affiliate shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. 
 e. For purposes of Section 409A, each of (i) the installments at a rate equal to 50% of your Base Salary, as provided in Paragraph
9, and (ii) the installments of continued Base Salary, as provided in Paragraphs 10 and 12, will be deemed to be a separate payment as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii).
