3.    Services to Be Rendered. 

(a)    Duties and Responsibilities.  Executive shall serve as a member of the Board and as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  So long as Executive is serving as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, he will be nominated to, and if elected by the stockholders of the Company, be a member of, the Board.  In the performance of such duties, Executive shall report directly to the Board, shall be the senior-most executive officer of the Company and shall have the duties and responsibilities consistent with the positions set forth above in a company the size and nature of the Company.  Executive hereby consents to serve as an officer and/or director of the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof without any additional salary or compensation, if so requested by the Board.  Executive shall be employed by the Company on a full time basis.  Executive shall perform his duties at the Company’s offices in Alviso, California and at the offices maintained by the Company for Executive in New York, New York.

(b)    Exclusive Services.  Executive agrees to devote substantially all of Executive’s business time, attention and energies to the business of the Company.  Subject to the terms of Section 6, this shall not preclude Executive from devoting time to personal and family investments or serving on advisory boards, community and civic boards or the corporate boards on which Executive currently serves, or participating in industry associations, provided such activities do not materially interfere with his duties 

to the Company.  Executive agrees that he will not join any additional corporate boards without the prior approval of the Board, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

(c)    Support Services.  Executive shall be entitled to all of the administrative, operational and facility support customary for a similarly-situated executive.  This support shall include an executive assistant selected by Executive exclusively assigned to him and the non-exclusive services of an administrative assistant located in the Company’s Alviso, California offices. 

4.    Compensation and Benefits.  The Company shall pay or provide, as the case may be, to Executive the compensation and other benefits and rights set forth in this Section 4. 
(a)    Base Salary.  The Company shall pay to Executive a base salary of $1,150,000 per fiscal year, payable in accordance with the Company’s usual pay practices (and in any event no less frequently than monthly).  Executive’s base salary shall be subject to review annually by and at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. 

(b)    Bonus.  In addition to the base salary described above, for each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, Executive shall have the opportunity to earn an annual performance bonus, up to two hundred percent (200%) of Executive’s base salary, based on reasonable criteria established by the Compensation Committee of the Board in good faith no later than ninety (90) days following the start of each fiscal year.  Commencing for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2013, upon full attainment of the aforementioned criteria established by the Compensation Committee of the Board, Executive’s annual bonus will be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s base salary, but for less than full achievement of such aforementioned criteria, Executive’s annual bonus shall be a lesser amount in accordance with a specific formula determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board, in its discretion, no later than ninety (90) days following the start of each fiscal year.  The annual bonus shall be determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee of the Board as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year with respect to which it is payable, and shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum promptly thereafter and in no event later than April 15 immediately following the end of such fiscal year, subject to all withholding with respect thereto as is required by applicable law.  The Compensation Committee of the Board will consider and shall have the discretion to exclude extraordinary items in good faith when determining Executive’s annual bonus, it being understood that the final determination shall be within the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board. 

(c)     Benefits.   Executive shall be entitled to participate in benefits under the Company’s benefit plans and arrangements, including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan or arrangement made available in the future by the Company to its senior executives, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements.  The Company shall have the right to 

amend or delete any such benefit plan or arrangement made available by the Company to its senior executives and not otherwise specifically provided for herein.  Executive shall also be entitled to such supplemental benefits as are agreed upon by Executive and the Company from time to time.

(d)    Expenses.   The Company shall reimburse Executive for reasonable business entertainment expenses and any other out-of-pocket business expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder, subject to (i) such policies as the Company may from time to time establish, and (ii) Executive furnishing the Company with evidence in the form of receipts satisfactory to the Company substantiating the claimed expenditures.  Executive shall be reimbursed for first class air travel for business travel between New York, New York and the Company’s offices in Alviso, California.  Executive shall be reimbursed pursuant to the Company’s standard travel policies for other business travel, provided that Executive shall be reimbursed for first class air travel if Executive determines reasonably and in good faith that such travel is appropriate.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not reimburse Executive for the personal expenses of Executive or Executive’s family.

(e)    Paid Time Off; Vacation.  Executive shall be entitled to such periods of paid time off (“PTO”) each year as provided under the Company’s PTO policy and as otherwise provided for senior executive officers, which shall in any event be no less than four (4) weeks per year. 

(f)    Stock Awards. Stock Awards shall include any and all Stock Awards granted to Executive (I) prior to the Fourth Restatement Effective Date as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, (II) as set forth in Sections 4(f)(i) and (ii) below and (III) between the Fourth Restatement Effective Date and Executive’s Date of Termination not otherwise referenced herein.  Such Stock Awards are subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable stock plan and award agreements pursuant to which such Stock Awards were granted to the extent such provisions are not less favorable to Executive than the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Change of Control Agreement.
(i)    Future Restricted Stock Awards.  Subject to Sections 4(f)(iv) and 5 below, Executive shall be granted an award of restricted shares of the Company’s capital stock (the “Restricted Stock”) for each of fiscal year 2014 and fiscal year 2015 as follows:
For fiscal years 2014 and 2015, Executive shall be granted an award of Restricted Stock with respect to 550,000 shares of Company common stock and 600,000 shares of Company common stock, respectively, (in each case, as equitably adjusted for stock splits, consolidations and/or other events affecting Company common stock as provided in the applicable equity plan) on or as soon as administratively practicable after the commencement of the applicable fiscal year, but in any event no later than ninety (90) 

days following the start of the applicable fiscal year (collectively, the “Future Restricted Stock Awards”), subject to Executive’s continuous service to the Company through the applicable grant date.  The vesting of at least fifty percent (50%) of the shares subject to each of the Future Restricted Stock Awards granted shall be based on the achievement of performance goals to be mutually agreed upon by the Board and Executive.  The Future Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the plan pursuant to which they are granted and an award agreement to be entered into between Executive and the Company evidencing such Future Restricted Stock Award to the extent such provisions are not less favorable to Executive than the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Change of Control Agreement.
(ii)    Restricted Stock Units.  Subject to Sections 4(f)(iv) and 5 below, for each of fiscal years 2014 and 2015, Executive shall be granted an award of 75,000 cash-settled restricted stock units (in each case as equitably adjusted for stock splits, consolidations and/or other events affecting Company common stock as provided in the applicable equity plan) (the “RSUs”) on or as soon as administratively practicable after the commencement of the applicable fiscal year, but in any event no later than ninety (90) days following the start of the applicable fiscal year, subject to Executive’s continuous service to the Company through the applicable grant date.  Each award of RSUs shall vest with respect to 1/3rd of the total number of RSUs on each anniversary of the date of grant, such that the RSUs shall be fully vested on the third (3rd) anniversary of the date of grant, subject to Executive’s continuous service to the Company through the applicable vesting date.  Each award of RSUs shall be subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the plan pursuant to which they are granted and an award agreement to be entered into between Executive and the Company evidencing such RSUs.
 (iii)    In the event of a Change of Control, the vesting schedule of any outstanding Restricted Stock granted on April 3, 2012, any Future Restricted Stock Awards and any other equity-based award that contain provisions making the vesting of, or lapse of restrictions with respect to, such award contingent upon the attainment of one or more performance goals that are not satisfied on or before the date of such Change of Control (collectively, the “Performance-Vesting Awards”) shall automatically convert into time-based vesting upon the consummation of such Change of Control, such that each outstanding Performance-Vesting Award shall vest and any restrictions thereupon shall lapse with respect to 1/4th of the total number of shares of Company common stock subject to such Performance-Vesting Award on each anniversary of the applicable date of grant, whereby such Performance-Vesting Award shall be fully vested and all restrictions thereupon shall lapse on the fourth (4th) anniversary of the 

applicable date of grant, subject to Executive’s continuous service to the Company through the applicable vesting date.
(iv)    In the event that, following the Fourth Restatement Effective Date, Executive elects to have the Company engage a full-time replacement Chief Executive Officer so that Executive may be elected Chairman of the Board, the vesting of Executive’s Stock Awards described in this Section 4 shall be automatically adjusted so that (A) the time-based vesting period of such Stock Awards shall be extended to twice the length of the remaining vesting period at the time of such role conversion (performance-based vesting shall be unaffected) and (B) the number of Stock Awards vesting on each time-based vesting date during the extended vesting period shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect such extension (performance-based vesting shall be unaffected), it being understood that such changes shall be implemented so that one hundred percent (100%) of the Stock Awards will vest by the end of the revised vesting schedule.  Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, Executive’s change in status from President and Chief Executive Officer shall have no adverse effect on his Stock Awards provided Executive continues to be a member of the Board. 
(v)    In addition to the Stock Awards described in this Section 4(f), Executive shall be entitled to participate in any equity or other employee benefit plan that is generally available to senior executive officers, as distinguished from general management, of the Company and shall be eligible to be considered for annual grants of equity awards.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Executive’s participation in and benefits under any such plan shall be on the terms and subject to the conditions specified in the governing document of the particular plan. 

(g)    New York Office.  The Company shall continue to maintain an office in New York, New York for Executive’s use in connection with his performance of services for the Company pursuant to this Agreement, at the location which the Company and Executive have previously agreed on for such office.  Following the Fourth Restatement Effective Date, the New York office may be relocated by the Company to any location reasonably satisfactory to Executive. 
 
(h)    Executive Assistant.  During the Employment Period, the Company shall either pay directly or reimburse Executive or TRget Media LLC for the reasonable costs of providing Executive administrative support through the services of his current executive assistant as of the Fourth Restatement Effective Date, including without limitation reimbursement for coach class airfare for such executive assistant for travel between New York, New York and Alviso, California, as well as the reasonable cost of hotel accommodations incurred by such executive assistant during such trip or as needed in New York, New York, at such hotels as may be mutually agreed upon be the Company and Executive.  The parties agree that the current compensation and benefits costs of Executive’s executive assistant are reasonable. 

5.    Termination and Severance.  Executive shall be entitled to receive benefits upon termination of employment only as set forth in this Section 5: 

(a)    At-Will Employment; Termination.  The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law, and that Executive’s employment with the Company may be terminated by either party at any time for any or no reason, with or without notice.  If Executive’s employment terminates for any reason, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages, awards or compensation other than as provided in this Agreement.  Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated immediately on the death of Executive. 

(b)    Termination by Death, For Cause or Disability, Voluntary Resignation Without Good Reason.  If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, by the Company for Cause or Disability, or by Executive other than for Good Reason, the Corporation shall pay Executive (or his estate) his full base salary, when due, through the Date of Termination, at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given, plus all other amounts to which Executive is entitled under any compensation plan or practice of the Company at the time such payments are due (including, without limitation, all accrued and unused vacation), and the Company shall have no further obligations to Executive (or his estate) under this Agreement.  In addition, if Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by Executive other than for Good Reason, all vesting of Executive’s unvested Stock Awards previously granted to him by the Company shall cease and none of such unvested Stock Awards shall be exercisable following the Date of Termination.  If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by reason of Executive’s death or by the Company for Disability, Executive’s unvested Stock Awards as of the Date of Termination, other than the Performance-Vesting RSUs, shall immediately vest with respect to 100% of the shares of Company’s common stock subject thereto and, to the extent applicable, remain exercisable for the balance of their original term.  The foregoing shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any and all other rights and remedies which may be available to the Company under the circumstances, whether at law or in equity. 

(c)    Termination Without Cause or Voluntary Resignation for Good Reason. 

(i)    Termination Apart From Change of Control.  If Executive’s employment is terminated (A) by the Company other than for Cause or Disability or (B) by Executive for Good Reason, and such termination is not a Payment Termination (as defined in that certain Third Amended and Restated Change of Control Terms and Conditions dated as of even date herewith, as may be amended from time to time, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Change of Control Agreement”)), and provided further that the termination of employment constitutes a “separation 

from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, including Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (a “Separation from Service”), then, subject to Section 5(d), in lieu of any severance benefits to which Executive may otherwise be entitled under any severance plan or program of the Company or by law, Executive shall be entitled to receive the benefits provided below: 

(A)    the Company shall pay to Executive his fully earned but unpaid base salary, when due, through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given, plus all other amounts to which Executive is entitled under any compensation plan or practice of the Company at the time such payments are due (including, without limitation, all accrued and unused vacation);

in connection with Executive’s termination of employment) for the remainder of the original term of such Stock Award.  The foregoing provisions are hereby deemed to be a part of each Stock Award and to supersede any less favorable provision in any agreement or plan regarding such Stock Award; 

(E)    with respect to any Restricted Stock provided in Section 4(f)(i) or any RSUs provided in Section 4(f)(ii) that has not been awarded to Executive as of the Date of Termination, Executive shall be entitled to a cash payment in an amount calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying the Restricted Stock and/or RSUs that have not been granted by the closing trading price of the Company’s common stock on the Date of Termination of such Restricted Stock and/or RSUs that have not been granted, which such cash payment shall be payable on sixtieth (60th) day following the Date of Termination; and 

(F)    Executive shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s target annual bonus for the fiscal year in which Executive’s employment terminates payable in a single lump sum on the 60th day following Executive’s Date of Termination and, upon attainment of the performance criteria with respect to Executive’s annual bonus for the fiscal year in which Executive’s employment terminates, a pro rated portion of such annual bonus based upon the actual number of days worked by Executive during such fiscal year, payable in a single lump sum when bonuses for such fiscal year are paid to the Company’s executives generally (but in no event later than two and one-half months following the end of such fiscal year). 
(ii)    Termination In Connection With a Change of Control.  If Executive incurs a Payment Termination (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement), then Executive shall be entitled to receive the benefits provided in the Change of Control Agreement; provided that if any benefit that would otherwise be provided pursuant to Section 5(c)(i) is more favorable to Executive than that provided under the Change of Control Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to receive the more favorable benefit. 

(d)    Release.  As a condition to Executive’s receipt of any benefits described in this Section 5(c) (other than the benefits described in Section 5(c)(i)(A)), Executive shall be required to execute a Release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Release”) no later than fifty (50) days following the Date of Termination and must not revoke the Release during any period permitted under applicable law. 

(e)    Exclusive Remedy.  Except as otherwise expressly required by law (e.g., COBRA) or as specifically provided herein, all of Executive’s rights to salary, severance, benefits, bonuses and other amounts hereunder (if any) accruing after the termination of 

Executive’s employment shall cease upon such termination.  In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive’s sole remedy shall be to receive the payments and benefits described in this Section 5.  In addition, Executive acknowledges and agrees that he is not entitled to any reimbursement by the Company for any taxes payable by Executive as a result of the payments and benefits received by Executive pursuant to this Section 5, including, without limitation, any excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code. 
  
(f)    No Mitigation.  Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 5 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Section 5 be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as the result of employment by another employer or self-employment or by retirement benefits, by offset against any amounts (other than loans or advances to Executive by the Company) claimed to be owed by Executive to the Company, or otherwise. 

(g)    Return of the Company’s Property.  If Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason, the Company shall have the right, at its option, to require Executive to vacate his offices prior to or on the effective Date of Termination and to cease all activities on the Company’s behalf.  Upon the termination of his employment in any manner, as a condition to the Executive’s receipt of any post-termination benefits described in this Agreement, Executive shall immediately surrender to the Company all lists, books and records containing Confidential Information (as defined below) and all other property belonging to the Company, it being distinctly understood that all such lists, books and records containing Confidential Information are the property of the Company.  If Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason and the Company’s New York, New York office is still maintained at its initial location as of the Fourth Restatement Effective Date, the Company and Executive shall use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate any lease or office sharing arrangement with respect to such office and to return ownership and/or use of such location to Executive, as appropriate, upon his request. 

6.    Certain Covenants. 

(a)    Noncompetition.  Except as may otherwise be approved by the Board, during the term of Executive’s employment, Executive shall not have any ownership interest (of record or beneficial) in, or have any interest as an employee, salesman, consultant, officer or director in, or otherwise aid or assist in any manner, any firm, corporation, partnership, proprietorship or other business that engages in any county, city or part thereof in the United States and/or any foreign country in a business which competes directly with the Company’s business in such county, city or part thereof, so long as the Company, or any successor in interest of the Company to the business and goodwill of the Company, remains engaged in such business in such county, city or part thereof or continues to solicit customers or potential customers therein; provided, however, that Executive may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any entity which are traded on any national securities exchange if Executive

Executive hereby agrees that, other than as Executive determines in good faith is necessary or appropriate in the discharge of his duties hereunder, during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, he shall not, directly or indirectly, disclose or make available to any person, firm, corporation, association or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, any Confidential Information (as defined below).  Executive further agrees that, upon termination of his employment with the Company, all Confidential Information in his possession that is in written or other tangible form (together with all copies or duplicates thereof, including computer files) shall be returned to the Company and shall not be retained by Executive or furnished to any third party, in any form except as provided herein; provided, however, that, this Section 6(b) shall not apply to Confidential Information that (i) was publicly known at the time of disclosure to Executive, (ii) becomes publicly known or available thereafter other than by any means in violation of this Agreement or any other duty owed to the Company by Executive, (iii) is lawfully disclosed to Executive by a third party, (iv) is required to be disclosed by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with actual or apparent jurisdiction to order Executive to disclose or make accessible any information, or (v) is related to any litigation, arbitration or mediation between the parties, including, but not limited to, the enforcement of this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means: confidential information disclosed to Executive or known by Executive as a consequence of or through Executive’s relationship with the Company about the customers, employees, business methods, public relations methods, organization, procedures or finances, including, without limitation, information of or relating to customer lists, product lists, product road maps, technology specifications or other information related to the products and services of the Company and its affiliates.  Nothing herein shall limit in any way any obligation Executive may have relating to Confidential Information under any other agreement with or promise to the Company. 
 
(c)    Non-Solicitation.  Executive hereby agrees that, for the eighteen (18) month period immediately following the Date of Termination, Executive shall not, either on his own account or jointly with or as a manager, agent, officer, employee, consultant, partner, joint venturer, owner or shareholder or otherwise on behalf of any other person, firm or corporation, directly or indirectly solicit or attempt to solicit away from the Company any of its officers or employees or offer employment to any person who, on or during the six (6) months immediately preceding the date of such solicitation or offer, is or was an officer or employee of the Company; provided, however, that (i) a general advertisement to which an employee of the Company responds shall in no event be deemed to result in a breach of this Section 6(c), and (ii) it shall not be a violation of this Section 6(c) for Executive to directly or indirectly solicit the employment of, or to hire, his current executive assistant. 

(d)    Survival; Reformation.  The provisions of this Section 6 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.  If it shall be finally determined that any restriction in this Section 6 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of any state or jurisdiction, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that state or jurisdiction. 

(e)    Equitable Relief.  In the event that Executive shall breach or threaten to breach any of the provisions of this Section 6, in addition to and without limiting or waiving any other remedies available to the Company in law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief in any court, domestic or foreign, having the capacity to grant such relief, to restrain such breach or threatened breach and to enforce the provisions of this Section 6.  Executive acknowledges that it is impossible to measure in money the damages that the Company will sustain in the event that Executive breaches or threatens to breach the provisions of this Section 6 and, in the event that the Company shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce such provisions seeking injunctive relief, Executive hereby waives and agrees not to assert and shall not use as a defense thereto the claim or defense that the Company has an adequate remedy at law.  The foregoing shall not prejudice the right of the Company to require Executive to account for and pay over to the Company the amount of any actual damages incurred by the Company as a result of such breach.  
7.    Insurance.  The Company shall have the right to take out life, health, accident, “key-man” or other insurance covering Executive, in the name of the Company and at the Company’s expense in any amount deemed appropriate by the Company.  Executive shall assist the Company in obtaining such insurance, including, without limitation, submitting to any required examinations and providing information and data required by insurance companies (as well as any action to comply with all applicable provisions of Code Section 101(j), relating to employer-owned life insurance contracts, as may be necessary in order for the proceeds of the key-man life insurance policy to qualify for the exclusion from gross income under Code Section 101(a)). 
8.    Arbitration; Dispute Resolution, Etc. 

(a)    Arbitration Procedures.  Except as set forth in Section 6, any disagreement, dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation of this Agreement or any arrangements relating to this Agreement or contemplated in this Agreement or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof shall be settled by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS/Endispute in San Jose, California in accordance with the then existing JAMS/Endispute Arbitration Rules and Procedures for Employment Disputes.  In the event of such an arbitration proceeding, Executive and the Company shall select a mutually acceptable neutral arbitrator from among the JAMS/Endispute panel of arbitrators.  In the event Executive and the Company cannot agree on an arbitrator, the Administrator of JAMS/Endispute will 

appoint an arbitrator.  Neither Executive nor the Company nor the arbitrator shall disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties.  Except as provided herein, the Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation, enforcement and all proceedings.  The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the state of California, or federal law, or both, as applicable, and the arbitrator is without jurisdiction to apply any different substantive law.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party and shall apply the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  The arbitrator shall render an award and a written, reasoned opinion in support thereof.  Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 
 
(b)    Expenses; Legal Fees.  The Company shall pay, or reimburse Executive for, all administrative fees and costs, and all arbitrator’s fees and expenses incurred by Executive in connection with any Dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement.  The Company shall pay, or reimburse Executive for, all expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Executive in connection with any Dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation thereof with respect to which Executive prevails.  In addition, the Company shall pay Executive’s reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with negotiating and documenting this Agreement and all other agreements related to Executive’s employment by the Company. 
9.    General Relationship.  Executive shall be considered an employee of the Company within the meaning of all federal, state and local laws and regulations including, but not limited to, laws and regulations governing unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation, industrial accident, labor and taxes. 
10.    Miscellaneous. 

(a)    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the Change of Control Agreement, the Plans and the Stock Award agreements referenced herein set forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein and supersede all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto, and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein, including without limitation, the Prior Agreement, any prior severance agreements, any contrary or limiting provisions in any Company equity compensation plan that certain Vice Chairman Employment Agreement dated as of October 6, 2004, between Executive and the Company and the Prior Agreement; provided, however, that the parties agree that all options to purchase Company common stock held by Executive immediately prior to the Original Effective Date shall remain outstanding (unless such options are exercised by Executive or expire by their own terms) during the period Executive is employed by the Company or serving as a member of the Board.  Any of Executive’s rights hereunder shall be in addition to any rights Executive may otherwise have under benefit plans or agreements of the 

Company (other than severance plans or agreements) to which Executive is a party or in which Executive is a participant, including, but not limited to, any Company sponsored employee benefit plans and stock option plans.  The provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way abrogate Executive’s rights under such other plans and agreements.  In addition, this Agreement shall not limit in any way any obligation Executive may have under any other agreement with or promise to the Company relating to employee confidentiality, proprietary rights in technology or the assignment of interests in any intellectual property. 

(b)    Assignment; Assumption by Successor. 

(i)    The rights of the Company under this Agreement may, without the consent of Executive, be assigned by the Company, in its sole and unfettered discretion, to any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly or indirectly, acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company.  The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and to agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; provided, however, that no such assumption shall relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder.  Unless expressly provided otherwise, “Company” as used herein shall mean the Company as defined in this Agreement and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid. 

(ii)    None of the rights of Executive to receive any form of compensation payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be assignable or transferable except through a testamentary disposition or by the laws of descent and distribution upon the death of Executive.  Any attempted assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition (other than as aforesaid) of any interest in the rights of Executive to receive any form of compensation to be made by the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be void. 

(iii)    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive and his personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributes, devisees and legatees.  If Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to Executive hereunder had he continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to his devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to his estate. 
 
(c)    Survival.  The covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained in or made in Sections 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12(o) of this Agreement shall survive any termination of Executive’s employment or any termination of this Agreement.  In addition, Executive’s right to terminate his employment for Good Reason and the 

Company’s obligations under this Agreement in the event of Executive’s voluntary resignation for Good Reason shall survive any actual or purported termination of this Agreement by the Company for a reason other than Cause or Executive’s Disability. 

(d)    Third-Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement does not create, and shall not be construed as creating, any rights enforceable by any person not a party to this Agreement. 

(e)    Waiver.  The failure of either party hereto at any time to enforce performance by the other party of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect such party’s rights thereafter to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver by either party of any breach of any provision hereof be deemed to be a waiver by such party of any other breach of the same or any other provision hereof. 

(f)    Section Headings.  The headings of the several sections in this Agreement are inserted solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of and are not intended to govern, limit or aid in the construction of any term or provision hereof. 

(g)    Notices.  All notices, requests and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by courier or other means of personal service (including by means of a nationally recognized courier service or professional messenger service), or sent by telex or telecopy or mailed first class, postage prepaid, by certified mail, return receipt requested, in all cases, addressed to:

(i)    Governing Law and Venue.  This Agreement is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed wholly within such State, and without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.  Except as provided in Sections 6 and 8, any suit brought hereon shall be brought in the state or federal courts sitting in San Jose, California, the parties hereto hereby waiving any claim or defense that such forum is not convenient or proper.  Each party hereby agrees that any such court shall have in personam jurisdiction over it and consents to service of process in any manner authorized by California law. 
 
(j)    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
(k)    Construction.  The language in all parts of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed simply, according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any of the parties hereto.

(l)    Withholding and other Deductions.  All compensation payable to Executive hereunder shall be subject to such deductions as the Company is from time to time required to make pursuant to law, governmental regulation or order. 
(m)    Code Section 409A.  
(i)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed by the Corporation at the time of his Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of Executive’s benefits shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Separation from Service with the Corporation or (B) the date of Executive’s death.

For purposes of Section 409A of the Code (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)), Executive’s right to receive each installment payment (the “Installment Payments”) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each Installment Payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment.  
(ii)    In addition, any reimbursements payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid in a timely manner to Executive, but in no event later 

than December 31 of the year following the year in which the cost was incurred.  The amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any subsequent year, and Executive’s right to reimbursement under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(o)    Amendment.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and such officer of the Company as may be specifically designated by the Board.

Third Amended and Restated 
Change of Control 
Terms and Conditions 
TiVo Inc. (the “Corporation”) considers it essential to the best interests of its shareholders to foster the continuous employment of the Corporation’s key management personnel.  In this regard, the Corporation’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly-held corporations, the possibility of a change in control of the Corporation may exist and the uncertainty and questions that it may raise among management could result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Corporation and its shareholders. 
The Board has decided to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Corporation’s management, including yourself, to their assigned duties without the distraction arising from the possibility of a change in control of the Corporation. 
In order to induce you to remain in its employ, the Corporation hereby agrees that after this letter agreement (this “Agreement”) has been fully executed, you shall receive the severance benefits set forth in this Agreement in the event that your employment with the Corporation is terminated under the circumstances described below in anticipation of or subsequent to a Change in Control (as defined below). 
Upon the Effective Date (as defined below), this Agreement shall supersede in its entirety that certain Second Amended and Restated Change of Control Terms and Conditions agreement entered into between you and the Corporation effective September 16, 2008 (the “Prior Agreement”) which shall terminate and be of no further effect as of the Effective Date.  You understand and agree that upon the Effective Date, the Corporation shall have no liability, and you shall have no rights to any payments whatsoever, under the Prior Agreement. 
1.    Term of Agreement.  This Agreement shall commence on September 13, 2012  (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue in effect until the earlier of its termination by mutual written consent of you and Corporation or the date all payments or benefits required to be made or provided hereunder have been made or provided in their entirety. 
2.    Change in Control.  No benefits shall be payable hereunder unless there has been a Change in Control.  For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean: 
(i)    a dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation; 
(ii)    a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation; 
(iii)    a sale by the stockholders of the Corporation of the voting stock of the Corporation to another corporation or its subsidiaries that results in the ownership by such corporation and/or its subsidiaries of eighty percent (80%) or more of the combined voting power of all classes of the voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote; 

 (iv)    a merger or consolidation involving the Corporation in which the Corporation is not the surviving corporation or a merger or consolidation of a subsidiary of the Corporation and in which, in either case, beneficial ownership of securities of the Corporation representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of members of the Board of Directors (“Directors”) has changed; 
(v)    a reverse merger in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation but the shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, and in which beneficial ownership of securities of the Corporation representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of Directors has changed; 
(vi)    an acquisition by any person, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act, or any comparable successor provisions (excluding any employee benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Corporation or subsidiary of the Corporation or other entity controlled by the Corporation) of the beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or comparable successor rule) of securities of the Corporation representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of Directors; or 
(vii)    for any reason during any period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the Effective Date) a majority of the Board is constituted by individuals other than (1) individuals who were directors immediately prior to the beginning of such period, and (2) new directors whose election or appointment by the Board or nomination for election by the Corporation’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors immediately prior to the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved. 
3.    Termination in Anticipation of or Following Change in Control. 
(i)    General.  If a Change in Control shall have occurred during the term of this Agreement, you shall be entitled to the benefits provided in Section 4(ii) if your employment is terminated within the thirteen (13) month period immediately following the date of such Change in Control (a) by the Corporation other than for Cause or Disability (each as defined below), or (b) by you for Good Reason (as defined below), provided that the termination of your employment constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, including Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (a “Separation from Service”); a termination of your employment under the circumstances described in this sentence is sometimes hereinafter referred to as a “Payment Termination”.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if your employment is terminated during the period commencing on the public announcement of 

a transaction which if consummated will constitute a Change in Control and ending on the date of consummation of such Change in Control either by the Corporation other than for Cause or Disability or by you for Good Reason, and if such termination (1) was at the request of a third party effecting the Change in Control or (2) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of the Change in Control, then for all purposes of this Agreement you shall be deemed to have incurred a Payment Termination immediately after the actual occurrence of the Change in Control if the Change in Control constitutes a change in the ownership or effective control of the Corporation or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation, as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5); provided, however that nothing herein shall extend the period within which any option to purchase the Corporation’s capital stock that you hold may be exercised following your termination of employment in such a manner as to result in adverse tax consequences to you under Section 409A of the Code.  Except as described in the preceding sentence, in the event that your employment with the Corporation is terminated for any reason and subsequently a Change in Control occurs, you shall not be entitled to any benefits hereunder.  In the event that you are entitled to the benefits provided in Section 4(ii), such benefits shall be paid notwithstanding the subsequent expiration of the term of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your employment is terminated in a Payment Termination, if any benefit or payment that would otherwise be provided to you pursuant to Section 4(f) or Section 5 of the Employment Agreement but for your termination being a Payment Termination is more favorable to you than that to which you would be entitled under this Agreement, you shall be entitled to receive the more favorable benefit or payment. 
(ii)    Death or Disability.  Your employment with the Corporation shall terminate automatically upon your death.  The Corporation may terminate your employment for Disability, but only if that Disability continues through the Date of Termination (as hereinafter defined).  For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean your absence from the full-time performance of your duties with the Corporation for one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days by reason of your physical or mental illness. 
(iii)    Cause.  The Corporation may terminate your employment for Cause.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (a) your willful and continued failure to substantially perform your duties with the Corporation (other than any such failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical or mental illness or any such actual or anticipated failure after your issuance of a Notice of Termination (as defined below) for Good Reason), after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to you by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that you have not substantially performed your duties, (b) your willful and continued failure to substantially follow and comply with such specific and lawful directives of the Board that are not inconsistent with your position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation (other than any such failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical or mental illness or any such actual or anticipated failure after your issuance 

of a Notice of Termination for Good Reason), after a written demand for substantial performance is delivered to you by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that you have not substantially performed your duties, (c) your willful commission of an act of fraud or dishonesty resulting in material economic or financial injury to the Corporation, or (d) your conviction of, or entry by you of a guilty or no contest plea to, the commission of a felony involving moral turpitude.  For purposes of this Section 3(iii), no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by you not in good faith. 
(iv)    Good Reason.  You may terminate your employment with the Corporation for Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence, after a Change in Control, of any one or more of the following events without your prior written consent, unless the Corporation fully corrects the circumstances constituting Good Reason (provided such circumstances are capable of correction) prior to the Date of Termination: 
(a)    Your removal from your position as Chief Executive Officer or President of the Corporation for any reason other than for Cause or your Disability; 
 (b)    (i) any change in reporting relationship such that you no longer report to the Board of Directors of the Corporation (or, if the Corporation has a parent company, to the Board of Directors of the ultimate parent of the Corporation) or (ii) any reduction in the nature and scope of your authorities, duties, and responsibilities from their level in effect immediately prior to such Change in Control (for this purpose, if the Corporation ceases to be a publicly-traded corporation, you will be deemed to have suffered such a reduction in the nature and scope of your authorities, duties, and responsibilities unless you are offered a position as Chief Executive Officer of a publicly-traded parent of the Corporation). 
(c)    the Corporation’s reduction of your annual base salary or bonus opportunity, each as in effect on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time; 
(d)    the Corporation’s failure to maintain a suitable and appropriate office in New York, New York or the Corporation’s discontinuance of its agreement to reimburse you for first class air travel for travel between New York, New York and the Corporation’s offices in Alviso, California; 
(e)    the Corporation’s failure to pay to you any portion of your then current compensation or any portion of an installment of deferred compensation under any deferred compensation program of the Corporation, in each case within seven (7) days of the date such compensation is due; 

(f)    the Corporation’s failure to continue in effect compensation and benefit plans which provide you with benefits which are no less favorable on an aggregate basis, both in terms of the amount of benefits provided and the level of your participation relative to other participants, to the benefits provided to you under the Corporation’s compensation and benefit plans and practices immediately prior to the Change in Control; 
(g)    the Corporation’s failure to obtain a satisfactory agreement from any successor to assume and agree to perform this Agreement, as contemplated in Section 5 hereof; 
(h)    the Corporation requiring you to relocate your primary residence from New York; 
(i)    any purported modification of this Agreement by the Corporation or any termination of your employment by the Corporation for any reason other than for Cause or your Disability; 
(j)    the Corporation’s providing notice to you pursuant to Section 1 above that it does not wish to extend the term of this Agreement; or 
(k)    the Corporation’s material breach of any provision of your employment agreement with the Corporation. 
Your right to terminate your employment pursuant to this Section 3(iv) shall not be affected by your incapacity due to physical or mental illness.  Your continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any circumstance constituting Good Reason hereunder. 
 
(v)    Notice of Termination.  Any purported termination of your employment by the Corporation or by you (other than termination due to your death, which shall terminate your employment automatically) shall be communicated by a written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 6.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice that shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement (if any) relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of your employment under the provision so indicated. 
(vi)    Date of Termination.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Date of Termination” shall mean (a) if your employment is terminated due to your death, the date of your death; (b) if your employment is terminated for Disability, thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination is given (provided that you shall not have returned to the full time performance of your duties during such thirty (30) day period), and (c) if your employment is terminated for any reason other than death or Disability, the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a termination by the Corporation without Cause shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of 

Termination is given, and in the case of a termination by you for Good Reason shall not be less than fifteen (15) nor more than thirty (30) days from the date such Notice of Termination is given). 
4.    Compensation Upon Termination. 
(i)    If your employment with the Corporation is terminated by reason of your death, by the Corporation for Cause or Disability, or by you other than for Good Reason, the Corporation shall pay you your full base salary, when due, through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given, plus all other amounts to which you are entitled under any compensation plan or practice of the Corporation at the time such payments are due (including, without limitation, all accrued and unused vacation), and the Corporation shall have no further obligations to you under this Agreement. 
(ii)    If you incur a Payment Termination, then, subject to Section 4(v), in lieu of any severance benefits to which you may otherwise be entitled under any severance plan or program of the Corporation or by law, you shall be entitled to the benefits provided below: 
(a)    the Corporation shall pay to you your full base salary, when due, through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given, plus all other amounts to which you are entitled under any compensation plan or practice of the Corporation at the time such payments are due (including, without limitation, all accrued and unused vacation); 
(b)    the Corporation shall, at the time specified in Section 4(iii), pay as severance pay to you a lump-sum severance payment equal to the sum of the following: 
(A)    one hundred percent (100%) of the greater of (x) your monthly base salary as in effect immediately prior to delivery of the Notice of Termination multiplied by twenty-four (24) or (y) your monthly base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control multiplied by twenty-four (24); and 
 
(B)    two hundred percent (200%) of the greater of (x) your targeted annual bonus for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs or (y) your targeted annual bonus for the year in which the Change in Control occurs, as if the bonus goals are satisfied; 
(c)    you shall immediately become vested with respect to one hundred percent (100%) of the unvested portion of any stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and such other awards granted pursuant to the Corporation’s stock option and equity incentive award plans or agreements and any shares of stock issued upon exercise thereof that you then 

hold (including without limitation any stock options, restricted stock units or restricted shares of the Corporation’s capital stock held by you that contain provisions making the vesting of, or lapse of restrictions with respect to, such awards contingent upon the attainment of one or more performance goals) and you shall be permitted to exercise each of your outstanding vested stock options or stock appreciation rights (or similar equity compensation awards) for the remainder of the original term of such stock option, stock appreciation right or similar award.  The foregoing provisions are hereby deemed to be a part of each stock option, stock appreciation right, restricted stock and such other award granted pursuant to the Corporation’s stock option and equity incentive award plans or agreements and to supersede any less favorable provision in any agreement or plan regarding such award; 
(d)    with respect to any Restricted Stock (as defined in that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the “Employment Agreement”)) provided in Section 4(f)(i) of the Employment Agreement or any RSUs (as defined in the Employment Agreement) provided in Section 4(f)(ii) of the Employment Agreement that has not been awarded to you as of the date of the Payment Termination, the Corporation shall, at the time specified in Section 4(iii), pay you in cash an amount calculated by multiplying the number of shares underlying the Restricted Stock and/or RSUs that have not been granted by the closing trading price of the Company’s common stock on the date of Payment Termination;
(e)    for the period beginning on the date of the Payment Termination and ending on the earlier of (i) the date which is twenty-four (24) full months following the date of the Payment Termination or (ii) the first day of your eligibility to participate in a comparable group health plan maintained by a subsequent employer, the Corporation shall pay for and provide you and your dependents with the same medical benefits coverage to which you would have been entitled had you remained continuously employed by the Corporation during such period.  In the event that you are ineligible under the terms of the Corporation’s benefit plans to continue to be so covered, the Corporation shall provide you with substantially equivalent coverage through other sources.  At the termination of the benefits coverage under the first sentence of this Section 4(ii)(e), you and your dependents shall be entitled to continuation coverage pursuant to Section 4980B of the Code, Sections 601-608 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and under any other applicable law, to the extent required by (or applicable pursuant to) such laws, as if you had terminated employment with the Corporation on the date such benefits coverage terminates; and 
(f)    the Corporation shall furnish you for six (6) years following the date of the Payment Termination (without reference to whether the term of this Agreement continues in effect) with directors’ and officers’ liability insurance 

insuring you against insurable events which occur or have occurred while you were a director or officer of the Corporation, such insurance to have policy limits aggregating not less than the amount in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, and otherwise to be in substantially the same form and to contain substantially the same terms, conditions and exceptions as the liability issuance policies provided for officers and directors of the Corporation in force from time to time, provided, however, that such terms, conditions and exceptions shall not be, in the aggregate, materially less favorable to you than those in effect on the date hereof; provided, further, that if the aggregate annual premiums for such insurance at any time during such period exceed one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of the per annum rate of premium currently paid by the Corporation for such insurance, then the Corporation shall provide the maximum coverage that will then be available at an annual premium equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of such rate. 
(iii)    The payments provided for in Sections 4(ii)(b) and 4(ii)(d) shall be made on the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Payment Termination. 
(iv)    You shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Section 4 be reduced by any compensation earned by you as the result of employment by another employer or self-employment, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amounts (other than loans or advances to you by the Corporation) claimed to be owed by you to the Corporation, or otherwise. 
(v)    As a condition to your receipt of any benefits described in Section 4(ii)  hereof (other than the benefits described in Section 4(ii)(a)), you shall be required to execute a Release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”) no later than fifty (50) days following the date of your Payment Termination and you must not revoke the Release during any period permitted under applicable law. 
5.    Successors; Binding Agreement. 
(i)    The Corporation shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.  Unless expressly provided otherwise, “Corporation” as used herein shall mean the Corporation as defined in this Agreement and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid. 
(ii)    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by you and your personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.  If you should die while any amount would still be payable to you hereunder had you continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise 

provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to your devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to your estate. 

6.    Notice.  For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth on the first page of this Agreement, provided that all notices to the Corporation shall be directed to the attention of its Secretary, or to such other address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt. 
7.    Parachute Payments. 
(i)    Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if it is determined that you would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (a “Parachute Tax”), as a result of the receipt of any payment or other benefit that is considered to be a parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code (collectively, a “Payment”), then the Corporation will pay to you an additional payment or payments (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment of all federal, state and local income, employment, excise and penalty taxes, you are left with an amount equal to all taxes payable by you under Section 4999 of the Code applicable to the Payment and the Gross-Up Payment and all penalties and interest imposed with respect to such taxes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will not be entitled to a Gross-Up Payment in respect of any equity awards granted to you after January 31, 2015 (“Excluded Amounts”).  For the sake of clarity, Excluded Amounts shall not include cash payments.
(ii)    At the time of an event giving rise to a Payment, you shall have the discretion to select either of the following:
(A)     the largest portion of the Payments that would result in no portion of the Excluded Amounts (after reduction) being subject to the Parachute Tax and no Gross-Up Payment; or 
(B)     the entire Payment plus the Gross Up Payment described above.  
If a reduction in the Payments is elected by you pursuant to the preceding sentence, the reduction shall occur in the manner (the “Reduction Method”) that results in the greatest economic benefit for you.  If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata Reduction Method”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Reduction Method or the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Payments being subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code that would not otherwise be subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, then the Reduction Method and/or the Pro Rata Reduction Method, as the case may be, shall be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code as follows:  (1) as a first priority, the modification shall preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit 

for you as determined on an after-tax basis; (2) as a second priority, Payments  that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without cause), shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and (3) as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.
(iii)    All determinations required to be made under this Section 7, including whether a Parachute Tax is payable by you and the amount of such Parachute Tax and whether a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment, shall be made by the nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants (the “Accounting Firm”) used by the Corporation as its auditors prior to the Change in Control (or, if such Accounting Firm declines to serve, the Accounting Firm shall be a nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants selected by the Corporation that is independent of the other person or entity involved in the Change in Control).  For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the Accounting Firm 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, provided that the Accounting Firm’s determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code).  The Accounting Firm shall be directed by the Corporation or you to submit its preliminary determination and detailed supporting calculations to both the Corporation and you within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of the Change in Control or any other such time or times as may be requested by you or the Corporation. 
(iv)    If the Accounting Firm determines that any Parachute Tax is payable by you in respect of any Payment other than an Excluded Amount, the Corporation shall pay the required Gross-Up Payment to you, or for your benefit, within five (5) business days after receipt of such determination and calculations (or, if later, the date of the  Payment associated with such Parachute Tax), provided that in any event, such Gross-Up Payment shall be paid to you by the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which you remit the Parachute Tax. 
(v)    If the Accounting Firm determines that no Parachute Tax is payable by you, it shall, at the same time as it makes such determination, furnish you with an opinion and supporting calculations that you have substantial authority not to report any Parachute Tax on your federal tax return.  Any good faith determination by the Accounting Firm as to the amount of a Gross-Up Payment shall be binding upon you and the Corporation absent a contrary determination by the Internal Revenue Service or a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that no such determination shall eliminate or reduce the Corporation’s obligation to provide any required Gross-Up Payment that shall be due as a result of such contrary determination.  
As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Code Section 4999 at the time of any determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-

Up Payments that will not have been made by the Corporation should have been made (an “Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder.  In the event that the Corporation exhausts or fails to pursue its remedies pursuant to Section 7(vii)(a) hereof and you thereafter are required to make a payment of any Parachute Tax , you shall direct the Accounting Firm to determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and to submit its determination and detailed supporting calculations to both you and the Corporation as promptly as possible.  Any such Underpayment plus applicable interest and penalty taxes shall be promptly paid by the Corporation to you, or for your benefit, within five (5) business days after receipt of such determination and calculations. 
(vi)    You and the Corporation shall each provide the Accounting Firm access to and copies of any books, records and documents in your possession reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm, and otherwise cooperate with the Accounting Firm in connection with the preparation and issuance of the determination contemplated by Section 7(iii) hereof. 
(vii)    The federal tax returns filed by you (or any filing made by a consolidated tax group which includes the Corporation) shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with the determination of the Accounting Firm with respect to the Parachute Tax payable by you.  You shall make proper payment of the amount of any Parachute Tax, and at the request of the Corporation, provide to the Corporation true and correct copies (with any amendments) of the applicable sections of his federal income tax return as filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and such other documents reasonably requested by the Corporation, evidencing such payment. If prior to the filing of your federal income tax return, the Accounting Firm determines in good faith that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment should be reduced, you shall within five (5) business days pay to the Corporation the amount of such reduction. 
(viii)    The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm for its services in connection with the determinations and calculations contemplated by this Section 7 shall be borne by the Corporation. 
(ix)    The following provisions only apply to the Payments in respect of which the Company has an obligation to make a Gross-Up Payment and shall not apply to any Excluded Amount: 
(a)    In the event that the Internal Revenue Service claims that any payment or benefit received by you from the Corporation constitutes an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G(b)(1), you shall notify the Corporation in writing of such claim. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but not later than twenty (20) business days after you are informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Corporation of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid.  You shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which you give such notice to the Corporation (or such shorter period ending 

on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due).  If the Corporation notifies you in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, you shall (I) give the Corporation any information reasonably requested by the Corporation relating to such claim; (II) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Corporation shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Corporation and reasonably satisfactory to you; (III) cooperate with the Corporation in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim; and (IV) permit the Corporation to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Corporation shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, additional interest and penalties and related legal, consulting or other similar fees) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold you harmless, on an after-tax basis, for and against for any Parachute Tax or income tax or other tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. 
(b)    The Corporation shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct you to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner and you agree to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Corporation shall determine; provided, however, that if the Corporation directs you to pay such claim and sue for a refund or otherwise contest such claim, the Corporation shall advance the amount of such payment together with any reasonable legal fees or other expenses incurred by you in connection with such request to you on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold you harmless, on an after tax basis, from any Parachute Tax (or other tax including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided, further, that if you are required to extend the statue of limitations to enable the Corporation to contest such claim, you may limit this extension solely to such contested amount.  The Corporation’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a corporate deduction would be disallowed pursuant to Code Section 280G and you shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.  In addition, no position may be taken nor any final resolution be agreed to by the Corporation without your consent if such position or resolution could reasonably be expected to adversely affect you unrelated to matters covered hereto. 

(c)    If, after the receipt by you of an amount advanced by the Corporation in connection with the contest of the Parachute Tax claim, you receive any refund with respect to such claim, you shall promptly pay to the Corporation the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto); provided, however, if the amount of that refund exceeds the amount advanced by the Corporation, you may retain such excess.  If, after the receipt by you of an amount advanced by the Corporation in connection with a Parachute Tax claim, a determination is made that you shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Corporation does not notify you in writing of its intent to contest the denial of such refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination such advance shall be deemed to be in consideration for services rendered after the date of your termination. 
8.    Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Covenants. 
(i)    Confidentiality.  You hereby agree that, other than as you determine in good faith is necessary or appropriate in the discharge of your duties to the Corporation, during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, you shall not, directly or indirectly, disclose or make available to any person, firm, corporation, association or other entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, any Confidential Information (as defined below).  You further agree that, upon termination of your employment with the Corporation, all Confidential Information in your possession that is in written or other tangible form (together with all copies or duplicates thereof, including computer files) shall be returned to the Corporation and shall not be retained by you or furnished to any third party, in any form except as provided herein; provided, however, that this Section 8(i) shall not apply to Confidential Information that (a) was publicly known at the time of disclosure to you, (b) becomes publicly known or available thereafter other than by any means in violation of this Agreement or any other duty owed to the Corporation by you, (c) is lawfully disclosed to you by a third party, (d) is required to be disclosed by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with actual or apparent jurisdiction to order you to disclose or make accessible any information, or (e) is related to any litigation, arbitration or mediation between the parties, including, but not limited to, the enforcement of this Agreement.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means: information disclosed to you or known by you as a consequence of or through your relationship with the Corporation about the customers, employees, business methods, public relations methods, organization, procedures or finances, including, without limitation, information of or relating to customer lists, product lists, product road maps, technology specifications or other information related to the products and services of the Corporation and its affiliates.  Nothing herein shall limit in any way any obligation you may have relating to Confidential Information under any other agreement with or promise to the Corporation. 
(ii)    Non-Solicitation.  You hereby agree that, for the eighteen (18) month period immediately following the Date of Termination, you shall not, either on your own 

account or jointly with or as a manager, agent, officer, employee, consultant, partner, joint venturer, owner or shareholder or otherwise on behalf of any other person, firm or corporation, directly or indirectly solicit or attempt to solicit away from the Corporation any of its officers or employees or offer employment to any person who, on or during the six (6) months immediately preceding the date of such solicitation or offer, is or was an officer or employee of the Corporation; provided, however, that (i) a general advertisement to which an employee of the Corporation responds shall in no event be deemed to result in a breach of this Section 7(ii), and (ii) it shall not be a violation of this Section 8(ii) for you to directly or indirectly solicit the employment of, or to hire, his current executive assistant. 
(iii)    Survival; Reformation.  The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement and your employment with the Corporation and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.  If it shall be finally determined that any restriction in this Section 7 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of any state or jurisdiction, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that state or jurisdiction. 
(iv)    Equitable Relief.  In the event that you shall breach or threaten to breach any of the provisions of this Section 8, in addition to and without limiting or waiving any other remedies available to the Corporation in law or in equity, the Corporation shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief in any court, domestic or foreign, having the capacity to grant such relief, to restrain such breach or threatened breach and to enforce the provisions of this Section 8.  You acknowledge that it is impossible to measure in money the damages that the Corporation will sustain in the event that you breach or threaten to breach the provisions of this Section 8 and, in the event that the Corporation shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce such provisions seeking injunctive relief, you hereby waive and agree not to assert and shall not use as a defense thereto the claim or defense that the Corporation has an adequate remedy at law.  The foregoing shall not prejudice the right of the Corporation to require you to account for and pay over to the Corporation the amount of any actual damages incurred by the Corporation as a result of such breach. 
9.    Miscellaneous.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by you and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board.  No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.  No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement.  The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflicts of law principles.  All references to sections of the Exchange Act or the Code shall be deemed also to 

refer to any successor provisions to such sections.  Except as provided in Section 4(ii)(f) hereunder, any payments provided for hereunder shall be paid net of any applicable withholding required under federal, state or local law.  The obligations of the Corporation under Section 4 shall survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement.  The section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience only, and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement. 
10.    Severability.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 
11.    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
12.    Arbitration; Dispute Resolution, Etc. 
(i)    Arbitration Procedures.  Except as set forth in Section 8(iv), any disagreement, dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation of this Agreement or any arrangements relating to this Agreement or contemplated in this Agreement or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof shall be settled by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS/Endispute in San Jose, California in accordance with the then existing JAMS/Endispute Arbitration Rules and Procedures for Employment Disputes.  In the event of such an arbitration proceeding, you and the Corporation shall select a mutually acceptable neutral arbitrator from among the JAMS/Endispute panel of arbitrators.  In the event you and the Corporation cannot agree on an arbitrator, the Administrator of JAMS/Endispute will appoint an arbitrator.  Neither you nor the Corporation nor the arbitrator shall disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties.  Except as provided herein, the Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation, enforcement and all proceedings.  The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the state of California, or federal law, or both, as applicable, and the arbitrator is without jurisdiction to apply any different substantive law.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party and shall apply the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  The arbitrator shall render an award and a written, reasoned opinion in support thereof.  Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 
(ii)    Compensation During Dispute, Etc.  Your compensation during any disagreement, dispute, controversy, claim, suit, action or proceeding (collectively, a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation of this Agreement shall be as follows: 
If there is a termination of your employment with the Corporation followed by a Dispute as to whether you are entitled to the payments and other benefits provided under this Agreement, then, during the period of that Dispute the Corporation shall pay you fifty percent (50%) of the 

amounts specified in Section 4(ii)(b) hereof, and the Corporation shall provide you with the other benefits provided in Section 4(ii) of this Agreement, if, but only if, you agree in writing that if the Dispute is resolved against you, you shall promptly refund to the Corporation all payments you receive under Section 4(ii)(b) of this Agreement plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(d) of the Code, compounded quarterly.  If the Dispute is resolved in your favor, promptly after resolution of the Dispute the Corporation shall pay you all amounts which were withheld during the period of the Dispute plus interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(d) of the Code, compounded quarterly. 
(iii)    Expenses; Legal Fees.  The Corporation shall pay, or reimburse you for, all administrative fees and costs, and all arbitrator’s fees and expenses incurred by you in connection with any Dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement.  The Corporation shall pay, or reimburse you for, all expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by you in connection with any Dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the interpretation thereof with respect to which you prevail.  In addition, the Corporation shall pay your reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with negotiating and documenting this Agreement.  Any reimbursements payable to you pursuant to this Section 12(iii) shall be paid to you no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the cost was incurred.  The amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any subsequent year, and your right to reimbursement under this Section 12(iii) will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.    
13.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto, and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein, including, without limitation, any prior severance agreements, is hereby terminated and cancelled.  Any of your rights hereunder shall be in addition to any rights you may otherwise have under benefit plans or agreements of the Corporation (other than severance plans or agreements) to which you are a party or in which you are a participant, including, but not limited to, any Corporation sponsored employee benefit plans and stock options plans.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement will supersede any provisions contained in the Corporation’s stock option plan or otherwise that would impose a “cut-back” under Section 280G of the Code.  For the avoidance of doubt, Section 4(f)(iii) of the Employment Agreement shall not be superseded by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall continue to apply in accordance with its terms.  The provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way abrogate your rights under such other plans and agreements.  In addition this Agreement shall not limit in any way any obligation you may have under any other agreement with or promise to the Corporation relating to employee confidentiality, proprietary rights in technology or the assignment of interests in any intellectual property. 
14.    At-Will Employment.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) confer upon you any right to continue in the employ of the Corporation, (ii) constitute any contract or 

agreement of employment, or (iii) interfere in any way with the at-will nature of your employment with the Corporation. 
15.    Code Section 409A.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are deemed by the Corporation at the time of your Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which you are entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of your benefits shall not be provided to you prior to the earlier of (a) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your Separation from Service with the Corporation or (b) the date of your death.  Upon the first business day following the expiration of the applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Section 15 shall be paid in a lump sum to you, and any remaining payments due under the Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.
