 Recitals: 
 WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement to set
forth the basis on which Jerry W. Levin and JWL Partners will perform services for Sharper Image, all as set forth more fully in this Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Engagement. Sharper Image hereby engages JWL Partners, and JWL Partners hereby accepts such engagement, to provide Jerry W. Levin as Chairman
and interim Chief Executive Officer (in such capacity, the “Interim CEO”) and other management services on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. During the Term (as defined below), Sharper Image is hereby obtaining from JWL
Partners the services of Jerry W. Levin, as Interim CEO and, after expiration of his service as Interim CEO, as a non-executive consultant and a member of the Board of Directors of Sharper Image (the “Board”), and Steven R. Isko

this Agreement will be as set forth herein. 
 2. Services/Responsibilities. 
 (a) Jerry W. Levin agrees that, while serving in the capacity of Interim CEO, he shall have all authority and responsibilities (including
certifications of the Sharper Image’s financial statements and other securities law filings) as customary for a Chief Executive Officer and shall report to the Board. 
 (b) During the Term (as defined below), Jerry W. Levin shall remain a member of the Board. By signing this Agreement, Jerry W. Levin
hereby resigns from each of the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee as required under the independence rules of the Nasdaq Global Market. During the Term, Jerry W. Levin waives any right to receive separate
compensation to which he would otherwise be entitled as a member of the Board, including without limitation meeting fees, cash retainer fees and equity awards. 
 (c) The services of Jerry W. Levin in his capacity as Interim CEO will be supplemented by the services of JWL Partners, Isko, and Popson
as necessary or desirable in the Interim CEO’s reasonable discretion. In addition, JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin in his capacity as a consultant, Isko, and Popson shall be obligated to furnish such hours of service at such locations as they deem
necessary in their reasonable discretion to perform their respective responsibilities hereunder. It is understood that Jerry W. Levin, Isko, and Popson will continue to be engaged in the business of JWL Partners or other entities. Consequently, it
is hereby understood and agreed

required to perform their respective services under this Agreement. 
 (d) The Board may appoint another Chief Executive
Officer at any time. It is anticipated that if a permanent Chief Executive Officer is appointed prior to the First Anniversary (as defined below), Jerry W. Levin (together with JWL Partners, Isko and Popson) will continue to serve in an oversight
capacity during the remainder of the Term to assist in operating Sharper Image and transitioning the permanent Chief Executive Officer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

the actual days of the Term in such month. 
 (ii) On the first date of the Term, the following non-qualified stock options to
purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Sharper Image (each, an “Option” and, collectively, the “Options”) shall be granted under the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2000

equal to the “fair market value” (as defined in the 2000 Plan) of the Common Stock on the date of grant and a term of 10 years. The Options will become exercisable as follows: 50% immediately upon grant and 50% upon the earliest to occur
of (x) a Change of Control during the Term, (y) the First Anniversary if the Term has not terminated previously, and (z) the termination of the Term pursuant to Section 3(b)(i), (ii), (v) or (vii). In the event of a
termination of the Term by Sharper Image pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii) 

  

 3 

 
or (iv) or by JWL Partners pursuant to Section 3(b)(vi), no additional Options shall become exercisable following such termination of the Term.
Options that have become exercisable shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (1) expiration of such Options’ ten-year term or (2) (x) three years after the date of grant or (y) two years after termination of Jerry W.
Levin’s service as a director of Sharper Image. The Options will be transferable to the extent permitted by Article Two, Section I, Paragraph F, of the 2000 Plan. Each share of Common Stock issued upon exercise of an Option by the recipient in
accordance with its terms will be (i) fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) registered under the federal and applicable state securities laws (subject however to completion of the Company’s restatement pending as of the date of this
Agreement), and (iii) listed on the securities exchange or quotation system where the Common Stock is traded. The Common Stock issued upon exercise of an Option shall not be “unvested shares of Common Stock” referenced in Article Two,
Section I, Paragraph E of the 2000 Plan. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Options shall have the terms and conditions set forth in the 2000 Plan. 
 (b) In the event Sharper Image engages advisors or consultants other than through JWL Partners, the fees and expenses relating to such advisors and consultants shall be paid by Sharper Image, not JWL Partners, and no
fee or expense paid or payable to any such advisor or consultant shall affect any fee payable to JWL Partners hereunder. 
 (c) Sharper Image shall reimburse Jerry W. Levin, JWL Partners, Isko, and Popson for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses including, but not limited to, costs of travel, reproduction, and typing. Travel for Jerry W. Levin, in his

business class, with reasonable efforts used to minimize such costs. If any of Isko, and/or Popson uses private aircraft for travel, then the amount reimbursed for such travel shall be no more than the equivalent cost of a first class ticket on a
non-discount carrier. Sharper Image shall reimburse Jerry W. Levin, JWL Partners, Isko, and Popson for such expenses promptly upon submission of a listing of the expenses, together with supporting documentation reasonably requested by Sharper Image,
sought to be reimbursed.

(A) the balance of the Annual Fee for the period from the date of this Agreement through the First Anniversary not previously paid, and (B) reimbursement of expenses pursuant to Section 4(c) for expenses incurred through the end of
the Term; provided that in the case of a termination of the Term pursuant to Section 3(b)(v), the payment pursuant to this Section 4(f)(i) shall be in addition to, and not exclusive of or in limitation or lieu of, any other rights
and remedies that may be available to JWL Partners or that JWL Partners may be entitled to under any applicable law or in equity, all of which shall remain available to JWL Partners.

 5. Confidentiality.

 (a) Sharper Image and the Board and Sharper Image’s employees, consultants and advisors shall treat as confidential

appointment and any termination thereof on Form 8-K) or the rules of the NASDAQ National Market, in which event the parties shall consult with each other in advance, neither JWL Partners nor Sharper Image shall issue a press release or make a public

 7. Indemnification. 
 (a) Jerry W. Levin, in his capacity as Interim CEO and a director, shall be indemnified by Sharper Image, including the advancement of expenses, to the fullest extent provided by Delaware law. Sharper Image shall
advance expenses to Jerry W. Levin promptly after Jerry W. Levin gives Sharper Image a written request for such advance, provided such request includes any undertaking required under Delaware law. All amounts indemnifiable by Sharper Image to Jerry
W. Levin in his capacity as Interim CEO and a director shall be paid by Sharper Image to Jerry W. Levin promptly after Jerry W. Levin gives Sharper Image a written request for such indemnification. All such advancement of expenses and payment of
indemnification shall be in immediately available funds. Without limiting the foregoing, Jerry W. Levin will be entitled to indemnification provisions at least as favorable as provided to any other director of Sharper Image. 
 (b) (i) Sharper Image shall indemnify and hold harmless JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin, in his capacity as a consultant, Isko, Popson, and
other employees, members, managers, officers, representatives, and agents of JWL Partners (each, a “JWL Partners Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “JWL Partners Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities, penalties, obligations, judgments, awards, costs, fees, expenses and disbursements, including without limitation the costs, fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and others, as and when incurred, from the first
dollar (any such amount being hereinafter sometimes referred to as an “Indemnifiable Loss”), of investigating, preparing or defending any pending or threatened action, claim, suit, proceeding or investigation (each, a
“Proceeding”) (whether or not in connection with Proceedings in which any JWL Partners Indemnified Party is a party), directly or indirectly caused by, relating to, based upon, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the
engagement of JWL Partners by Sharper Image or the performance by JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin, in his capacity as a consultant, Isko, or Popson of services pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, the indemnification under this
Section 7(b)(i) shall not apply to any such loss, claim, damage, liability, penalty, obligation, judgment, award, cost, fee, expense or disbursement to the extent it is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject
to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from such JWL Partners Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. A JWL Partners Indemnified Party shall provide Sharper Image with prompt notice of any
Proceeding under this paragraph. Sharper Image shall be entitled to participate in and control, the defense of 

  

 7 

 
any Proceeding (other than a pending or threatened Proceeding in which Jerry W. Levin, in his capacity as an officer or director is named or otherwise
involved) under this Section 7(b) at its sole cost and expense. If Sharper Image does not promptly undertake in writing to defend such Proceeding, or, if in connection with any pending or threatened Proceeding against or involving both a JWL
Partners Indemnified Party and Sharper Image, counsel to the JWL Partners Indemnified Party or Sharper Image provides written advice that the representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between them in respect of such Proceeding, then the JWL Partners Indemnified Party may assume and control such defense through counsel of its choice (reasonably acceptable to Sharper Image) and Sharper Image shall promptly pay
expenses reasonably incurred by the JWL Partners Indemnified Party in, investigating, preparing or defending, or settling any pending or threatened Proceeding, upon submission of invoices therefore. For a Proceeding that Sharper Image is defending
in accordance with this Section 7(b), the JWL Partners Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Proceeding at their respective cost and expense. For a Proceeding that JWL Partners is defending in
accordance with this Section 7(b), Sharper Image shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Proceeding at its sole cost and expense. JWL Partners will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any
Proceeding (whether pending or threatened) in respect of which payment may be sought under this Section 7(b) without the prior written consent of Sharper Image, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Sharper Image will not
settle compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any Proceeding (whether pending or threatened) in respect of which payment may be sought under this Section 7(b) without the prior written consent of JWL Partners, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Sharper Image will not, without the prior written consent of the JWL Partners Indemnified Party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought under this Section 7(b) (whether or not the JWL Partners Indemnified Parties are actual or potential parties to such
claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each JWL Partners Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such Proceeding. Sharper Image shall pay any Indemnifiable Loss promptly upon
demand, in immediately available funds. 
 (ii) If the indemnification provided for in Section 7(b)(i) is found in a
final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to be unavailable to any JWL Partners Indemnified Party in respect of any Proceeding, then Sharper Image, in lieu of indemnifying such JWL Partners Indemnified
Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such JWL Partners Indemnified Party as a result of such Proceeding (x) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such JWL Partners Indemnified Party and
Sharper Image with respect to the statements, acts, or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, penalty, obligation, judgment, award, cost, fee, expense and disbursement for which indemnification was sought, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations, or (y) if the allocation provided by clause (x) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by Sharper Image, on
the one hand, and such JWL Partners Indemnified Party, on the other hand, arising out of this Agreement; provided however for either clause (x) or (y) of this Section 7(b)(ii), the aggregate contribution of all JWL Partners
Indemnified Parties seeking contribution pursuant to this Section 7(b)(ii) will not exceed the Annual Fee actually paid to JWL Partners under Section 4(a)(i) of this Agreement. 
  

 8 

 (c) Sharper Image has furnished to JWL Partners a true, correct, and complete copy of the
insurance policies relating to directors and officers liability insurance coverage, employment practices insurance coverage and fiduciary liability insurance coverage (as such are renewed, collectively, the “Policies” or individually
referred to as a “Policy”) issued to Sharper Image by various insurers as set forth in the Policies (each, an “Insurer”). Sharper Image represents that the Policies are in full force and effect and that no event has occurred that
constitutes or, with the passage of time or giving of notice would constitute, an event of default thereunder or that would otherwise give the Insurer any right to cancel such Policies. After execution of this Agreement, Sharper Image shall promptly
notify each Insurer of the election of Jerry W. Levin as Interim CEO. To the extent practicable, during the Term, Sharper Image shall use reasonable efforts to cause its insurance broker to send copies of all documentation and other communications
regarding the Policies, including without limitation any renewal or cancellation thereof, to the attention of JWL Partners, in the manner set forth herein. During the Term, Sharper Image shall maintain directors and officers liability insurance
coverage, employment practices insurance coverage and fiduciary liability insurance coverage comparable as to terms (including without limitation the provisions or any similar provision regarding extension of the discovery period thereunder) and
amount of coverage as provided under the Policies, with any such replacement coverage being obtained from an insurer with a rating from a nationally recognized rating agency not lower than that of the Insurer presently providing such coverage. Upon
any cancellation or non-renewal of any Policies by any Insurer, as long as the same can be done at a commercially reasonable cost, Sharper Image shall exercise its rights under the applicable clause of the relevant Policy to extend the claim period
for a one-year “discovery period” and shall exercise such rights and pay the premium required thereunder within the 30-day period specified therein. In the event of a change of control (or similar term), as defined in a Policy, which
results or is reasonably likely to result in the termination of such the Policy, Sharper Image will use reasonable efforts to cause Sharper Image, or the acquiror of or successor to Sharper Image, as applicable, to provide a six (6) year tail
insurance policy for such Policy. 
 (d) If Jerry W. Levin, Isko, and/or Popson is required to testify, prepare for and/or
appear at a deposition or produce documents at any time after the expiration of the Term at any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to any services provided by JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin, Isko, and/or Popson under this Agreement, other
than as a result of a dispute by the parties under this Agreement or as a result of conduct by JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin, Isko, and/or Popson meeting the definition of Cause, then (i) for each day (or partial day) JWL Partners shall be
entitled to be compensated by Sharper Image for Jerry W. Levin’s, Isko’s, and/or Popson’s time at the rate of $1,000 per day, and (ii) JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin, Isko, and/or Popson shall be reimbursed for their respective
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including travel and counsel fees, on the same terms as set forth in Section 4(c). 
 (e) The indemnification and hold harmless provisions set forth in this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which Sharper Image may otherwise have to the JWL Partners Indemnified Parties. The rights of a JWL Partners
Indemnified Party provided in this Section 7 shall be in addition to, and not exclusive of or in limitation or lieu of, any other rights and remedies that may be available to a JWL Partners Indemnified Party or that a JWL Partners Indemnified
Party may be entitled to under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Sharper Image, any other agreements, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors of Sharper Image, any applicable law or in equity, or otherwise, all of which shall
remain available to such JWL Partners Indemnified Party.

 (a) Jerry W. Levin, in his capacity as Interim CEO and a director, shall be provided with the benefit of the limitation of liability
afforded to members of the Board under Section 7.05 of the bylaws of Sharper Image and Article V of the Certificate of Incorporation of Sharper Image. Sharper Image shall not amend Section 7.05 of the bylaws of Sharper Image or Article V

 (b) None of JWL Partners, Isko, Popson, or any other JWL Partners Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect,

W. Levin in his capacity as a consultant, Isko, or Popson of services pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent for any such liability for losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties, obligations, judgments, awards, costs, fees, expenses
and disbursements that are found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction (not subject to further appeal) to have resulted primarily and directly from such party’s gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct, and in such
event, the maximum amount payable shall not exceed the Annual Fee actually paid to JWL Partners under Section 4(a)(i) of this Agreement. 
 (c) In no event will JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin (in his capacity as a consultant), Isko, and/or Popson or any other JWL Partners Indemnified Party be liable for lost profits or consequential, special, indirect,
incidental, punitive or exemplary loss, damages, or expenses relating to this Agreement or the performance by JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin (in his capacity as a consultant), Isko, or Popson of services pursuant to this Agreement. 
 9. Independent Contractor/Taxes. The parties intend that JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin (whether in his capacity as Interim CEO or as a consultant),
Isko, and Popson shall render services under this Agreement as an independent contractor, and nothing herein shall be construed to be inconsistent with this relationship or status. JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin (whether in his capacity as Interim CEO
or as a consultant), Isko, and Popson shall be solely responsible for any federal, state or local taxes or contributions imposed on JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin (whether in his capacity as Interim CEO or as a consultant), Isko, and/or Popson under
any employment insurance, social security, or income tax law or regulation applicable to JWL Partners, Jerry W. Levin (whether in his capacity as Interim CEO or as a consultant), Isko and Popson, as the case may be, by reason of this Agreement and
