 Mitchell T. Weisman 
  
 Dear Mitchell: 
  
 On behalf of
Gator.com (the “Company”), we are delighted to extend an offer to you to join the Company as its senior director of business development. The members of the Company’s management team are all very impressed with your credentials
and we look forward to your future success in this position. 
  
 The terms of your new position with the Company are as set forth below: 
  
 1. Position. 
  
 (a) As Senior Director of Business Development, working out of the Company’s new headquarters office in Redwood City, California, you will help manage the initiation, negotiation, and implementation of strategic
partnerships, as well as helping to manage venture capital, corporate finance, and/or mergers and acquisition activity for the Company, reporting to Jeff McFadden. 
  
 2. Start Date. Subject to fulfillment of any conditions imposed by this letter agreement, you will be
retroactively assumed to have commenced this new position on October 24, 1999. 
  
 3. Proof of Right to Work. For purposes of Federal Immigration Law, you will be required to provide to the Company documentary evidence of your identity and eligibility for employment in the
United States. Such documentation must be provided to us within three (3) business days of your date of hire, or our employment relationship with you may be terminated. Failure by the Company to notify you of any required documentation within five
business days of days of your date of hire shall be deemed the Company’s satisfaction that you are in compliance with such Federal Immigration Law. 
  
 4. Compensation. 
  
 (a) Cash Salary. You will be: paid a monthly base salary of $10,416.67 (i.e. $125,000 on an annualized basis). Your
salary will be payable semimonthly pursuant to the Company’s regular payroll policy. In addition, you will be paid a performance-based bonus oat a quarterly basis. The target for this bonus will be $10,000 per quarter for expected performance.
The bonus may vary from this target to the extent actual performance is stronger or weaker than expected. Performance will be reviewed quarterly, and salary will be reviewed the earlier of (a) August 1, 2000 or (b) such time as it is determined that
you will be promoted to VP Business Development. 
  

 (b) Stock Options. In connection with your prior consulting, the Company
will recommend to the Board of Directors that you be granted an option to purchase 35,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“Consulting Shares”) with an exercise price equal to the fair market value at the time of your
Start Date. These Consulting Shares will be fully vested at the time of grant. In addition, in connection with the commencement of your employment, the Company will recommend to the Board that you be granted an option to purchase 212,500 shares of
the Company’s Common Stock (“Employment Shares”) with an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of the grant. The Employment Shares will vest as follows: (1) 25% at the earlier of (a) March 31, 2000, or (b)
such time as the Company elects to terminate your employment without Cause (as defined below); and (2) 75% in 48 equal monthly installments, beginning retroactively from August 1, 1999. Except as otherwise described herein, vesting will cease at
such time as you are no longer employed with the Company. The options will be incentive stock options to the maximum extent allowed by the tax code and will be subject to the terms of the Company’s Stock Plan and the Stock Option Agreement
between you and the Company. 
  
 (c) VP of
Business Development. The Company believes you may be a viable candidate to be promoted to VP of Business Development. To this end, the Company will review your performance and make a decision on a potential promotion no later than
June 30, 2000. If the Company, in it’s sole discretion, elects to promote you to VP of Business Development, the Company will recommend to the Board that you be granted an option to purchase an additional 212,500 shares of the Company’s
Common Stock (“VP Shares”) with an exercise price equal to the fair market value at the time of the grant. These VP Shares will begin vesting in 48 equal monthly installments, beginning with the first month after the date of such
promotion. 
  
 (d) Contingent upon Board
approval. The company understands that your acceptance of this offer is contingent upon approval of the stock grants described herein by the Company’s Board of Directors within 30 days. 
  
 5. Benefits. You will be entitled to participate in the
Company’s benefits plans. You will also be entitled to the Company’s vacation program, which is currently fifteen days vacation and ten paid holidays. 
  

6. Responsibilities. You agree, to the best of your ability and experience, that you will at all times loyally and conscientiously
perform all of the duties and obligations required of and from you pursuant to the express and implicit terms hereof, and to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. During the term of your employment, you further agree that you will devote most
of your business time and attention to the business of the Company. You shall cease other full time employment immediately upon execution of this agreement. However, the Company understands and acknowledges that you will be performing against other
obligations (“Non-Company Obligations”) during your employment, which may at times involve conflicts of interest, and which may involve monetary compensation. In general, these activities may include (1) managing Farley West
Ventures on-going affairs, both administrative and vis-à-vis portfolio companies, and (2) pursuing a new venture capital opportunity, which would likely take 

  

 
the form of supporting the fund-formation process. The Company will provide you written notice if it believes either (a) your time allocation to performing
Non-Company Obligations is significantly inhibiting your ability to perform your Company duties, or (b) you have an unreasonable conflict of interest. Other than the activities described above, you will not render commercial or professional services
of any nature to any person or organization, whether or not for compensation, without the prior written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors. Except as it relates to private equity investments, you will not directly or indirectly engage
or participate in any business that is competitive in any manner with the business of the Company. Nothing in this letter agreement will prevent you from accepting speaking or presentation engagements in exchange for honoraria, from serving on
boards of companies or charitable organizations, periodically making private equity investments, or from owning no more than one percent (1%) of the outstanding equity securities of a corporation whose stock is listed on a national stock exchange.

  
 7. Confidentiality of Terms. You agree to
follow the Company’s policy that employees must not disclose, either directly or indirectly, any information, including any of the terms of this agreement, regarding salary, bonuses, or stock purchase or option allocations to any person,
including other employees of the Company; provided, however, that you may discuss such terms with members of your immediate family and any legal, tax or accounting specialists who provide you with individual legal, tax or accounting advice.

  
 At-Will Employment. Your employment with the
Company will be on an “at will” basis, meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time for any reason or no reason, without further obligation or liability except as provided in this agreement. However, in
the event the Company elects to terminate your employment without Cause prior to March 31, 2000, then you will immediately vest in the 25% of your Employment Shares that would otherwise have vested on March 31, 2000. 
  
 For purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall be: deemed to have Cause
for terminating your employment in the following circumstances: 
  
 (i) After having received written notice from the Company that the Company, in it’s sole discretion, determines that your time allocation to performing Non-Company Obligations is significantly inhibiting your ability to perform your
Company duties, or that you have an unreasonable conflict of interest, you fail to adjust such time allocation or resolve such conflict of interest within 30 days of your receiving such written notice; 
  
 (ii) You engage in self-dealing constituting a breach of your duty of
loyalty to the Company, including engaging in any competitive activity, any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement described in Section 9 hereof or other intentional disclosure of confidential Company information to any third party without specific
authority to do so, or any disparagement of the 

  

 
Company to any employee, customer or supplier (provided, however, that you will not be considered to have breached your duty of loyalty to the Company or to
have engaged in any competitive activities by performing your Non-Company Obligations or other private equity investment activities unless you disclose Company Confidential Information); 
  
 (iii) You commit a criminal act relating to the performance of your duties hereunder or which is punishable as a felony, or
which involves moral turpitude; 
  
 (iv) You violate the
Company’s policies prohibiting discrimination and harassment; or 
  
 (v) You materially fail to perform the duties of your position after written notice from the Company specifying with particularity the alleged failure, and you do not remedy such failure within 30 days of receiving written notice from the
Company of such failure. 
  
 8. Confidentiality
Agreement. In connection with and as a condition of your employment with the Company, you agree to execute an agreement that is similar to the enclosed standard Company Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement. The
confidentiality agreement you sign shall permit you to disclose such information to Gator.com investors whose interests you represent to the extent that you may be required in order to uphold your non-company fiduciary duties. 
  
 We are all delighted to be able to extend you this offer and look forward to
working with you. To indicate your acceptance of the Company’s offer, please sign and date this letter in the space provided below and return it to us, along with a signed and dated copy of the Confidentiality Agreement. This letter, together
with the Confidentiality Agreement, set forth the terms of your employment with the Company and supersede any prior representations or agreements, whether written or oral. This letter may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement,
signed by the Company and by you.

 Enclosure: Confidential Information
and Inventions Assignment AgreementKey Employee Retention Agreement effective February 7, 2001

 Exhibit 10.09 
  
 THE GATOR CORPORATION 
  
 KEY EMPLOYEE RETENTION AGREEMENT 
  
 This Key Employee Retention Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Mitchell Weisman (the
“Employee”) and The Gator Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), effective as of February 7, 2001 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 A. It is expected that the Company from time to time will consider the possibility of an acquisition by another company or other change of control. The
Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) recognizes that such consideration can be a distraction to the Employee and can cause the Employee to consider alternative employment opportunities. The Board has determined that it is
in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to assure that the Company will have the continued dedication and objectivity of the Employee, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in
Section 5 below) of the Company. 
  
 B. The Board believes that it
is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to provide the Employee with an incentive to continue his or her employment and to motivate the Employee to maximize the value of the Company upon a Change of Control for the benefit of
its stockholders. 
  
 C. The Board believes that it is imperative
to provide the Employee with certain benefits upon a Change of Control that provide the Employee with enhanced financial security and incentive and encouragement to the Employee to remain with the Company notwithstanding the possibility of a Change
of Control. 
  
 D. Certain capitalized terms used in the Agreement
are defined in Section 5 below. 
  
 The parties hereto agree as
follows: 
  
 1. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement
shall terminate upon the earlier of: (a) the termination of Employee’s employment for any reason prior to, and not in connection with, a Change of Control, or (b) the date that all obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this
Agreement have been satisfied. 
  
 2. AT-WILL
EMPLOYMENT. The Company and the Employee acknowledge that the Employee’s employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. If the Employee’s employment terminates for any reason prior to, and not in
connection with, a Change of Control, the Employee shall not be entitled to the benefits provided by this Agreement, or any other benefits unless otherwise available in accordance with the Company’s established employee plans and practices or
pursuant to other agreements with the Company. 
  
 3.
SEPARATION BENEFITS UPON INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION FOLLOWING CHANGE OF CONTROL. If within one year of the effective date of a 

  

 
Change of Control, the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated (an “Involuntary Termination”) by the Company or the
successor corporation without Cause or by the Employee as the result of a Constructive Termination by the Company or the successor corporation, then, subject to the limitations in this Section 3 and Section 4 below, the vesting of 25% of
Employee’s then unvested shares of the Company’s common stock shall automatically be accelerated so as to become vested as of the effective date of the Involuntary Termination or Constructive Termination. 
  
 4. LIMITATION ON PAYMENTS. In the event that the separation
benefits (the “Benefits”) provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to the Employee (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), and (ii) but for this Section 4, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or any corresponding provisions of state income tax law), then the Employee’s Benefits under Section 3 shall be
either: 
  
 (a) delivered in full, or 

 
 (b) delivered as to such lesser extent which would result
in no portion of such Benefits being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999,
results in the receipt by the Employee on an after-tax-basis, of the greater amount of Benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Unless the Company and the Employee otherwise
agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 4 shall be made in writing by the Accountants, whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Employee and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the
calculations required by this Section 5, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of
the Code. The Company and the Employee shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants
may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 4. In the event that subsection (a) above applies, then Employee shall be responsible for any excise taxes imposed with respect to such severance and other
benefits. In the event that subsection (b) above applies, then each benefit provided hereunder shall be proportionately reduced to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of such excise taxes. 
  
 5. DEFINITION OF TERMS. The following terms referred to in this
Agreement shall have the: following meanings: 
  
 (a) Change of Control. “Change of Control” shall mean a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization of the Company with or into another
corporation; provided however that a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization in which the holders of more than 50% of the shares of capital stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction continue to hold (either
by the voting securities remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the total voting power represented by 

  

 2 

 
the voting securities of the Company, or such surviving entity, outstanding immediately after such transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control.

  
 (b) Cause. “Cause”
for Employee’s termination shall mean, the good faith judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors, that the undersigned has engaged in or committed any of the following: (i) gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his
duties to the Company where such gross negligence or willful misconduct has resulted or is likely to result in substantial and material damage to the Company or its subsidiaries, (ii) repeated unexplained or unjustified absence from the Company,
(iii) a material and willful violation of any federal or state law, (iv) commission of any act of fraud with respect to the Company, (v) breach of any confidentiality obligation to the Company, whether determined by agreement or by applicable law;
or (vi) conviction of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude causing material harm to the standing and reputation of the Company, in each case as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company. Not withstanding anything to
the contrary herein, neither poor performance in achievement of job objectives nor disability shall constitute “Cause”. 
  
 (c) Constructive Termination. “Constructive Termination” shall be deemed to occur if, within twelve months of the
change in control, there is (i)(A) a material adverse change in Employee’s position causing such position to be of materially reduced responsibility, (B) any reduction of greater than 5.0% of Employee’s total current compensation including
salary, incentive payments, bonuses, benefits, etc., or (C) Employee’s refusal to relocate to a facility or location more than 50 miles from the Company’s current location in Redwood City, California; and (ii) following any of the
foregoing events, Employee elects to terminate his or her employment voluntarily. 
  
 6. SUCCESSORS. 
  
 (a) Company’s Successors. Any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the
Company’s business and/or assets shall assume the obligations under this Agreement and agree expressly to perform the obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the, same extent as the Company would be required to perform such
obligations in the absence of a succession. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets which executes and delivers the assumption agreement described
in this Section 6(a) or which becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement by operation of law. 
  
 (b) Employee’s Successors. The terms of this Agreement an all rights of the Employee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of,
and be enforceable by, the Employee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.

given when personally delivered or three (3) days after being mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In the case of the Employee, mailed notices shall be addressed to him or her at 

  

 3 

 
the home address which he or she most recently communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, mailed notices shall be addressed to its
corporate headquarters, and all notices shall be directed to the attention of its Secretary. 
  
 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. 
  
 (a) Waiver. No provision of this Agreement shall be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Employee and by an authorized officer of
the Company (other than the Employee). No waiver by either party of any breach of, or of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement by the other party shall be considered a waiver of any other condition or provision or of the same
condition or provision at another time. 
  
 (b)
Whole Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the Employee and the Company with respect to the matters set forth herein. No agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express
or implied) which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement have been made or entered into by either party with respect to the subject matter hereof.

the State of California as applied to agreements entered into and performed within California solely by residents of that state.
