 2.Form of Change of Control and Retention Agreement

 Exhibit 10.21 
  
 CHANGE OF CONTROL AND RETENTION AGREEMENT 
  
 This Change of Control and Retention Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of
December 2, 2004, by and between Nuance Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [            ] (the
“Executive”). 
  
 Recitals: 
  
 WHEREAS, the Executive is a key employee of the Company who possesses
valuable proprietary knowledge of the Company, its business and operations and the markets in which the Company competes; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company draws upon the knowledge, experience, expertise and advice of the Executive to manage its business for the benefit of the
Company’s stockholders; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company
recognizes that, if a Change of Control were to occur, the resulting uncertainty regarding the consequences of such an event could adversely affect the performance of, and the Company’s ability to attract and retain, its key employees,
including the Executive; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Company believes
that the existence of this Agreement will serve as an incentive to the Executive to remain in the employ of the Company, and would enhance the Company’s ability to call on and rely upon the Executive if a Change of Control were to occur; and

  
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to enter into
this Agreement to encourage the Executive to continue to devote the Executive’s full attention and dedication to the success of the Company, and to provide specified compensation and benefits to the Executive in the event of a Termination Upon
Change of Control pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS: 
  
 1.
PURPOSE 
  
 The purpose of this Agreement is to provide
specified compensation and benefits to the Executive in the event of his Termination Upon Change of Control. Subject to the terms of any applicable written employment agreement between Company and the Executive, either the Executive or Company may
terminate the Executive’s employment at any time for any reason. 
  
 2.
TERMINATION UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL 
  
 2.1 Prior
Obligations. In the event of the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits described in this Section 2.1. 
  
 2.1.1 Accrued Salary and Vacation. All salary and accrued vacation earned through the date of the Executive’s
Termination Upon Change of Control shall be paid to Executive on such date (the “Termination Date”). 
  
 2.1.2 Accrued Bonus Payment. The Executive shall receive a lump sum payment of any actual bonus amount attributable to the Company’s prior
fiscal year, to the extent that any such bonus was earned and is unpaid on the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, on the Termination Date. 
  
 2.1.3 Expense Reimbursement. Within ten (10) days following submission to the Company of proper expense reports by the Executive, the Company shall
reimburse the Executive for all 

 
expenses incurred by the Executive, consistent with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy in effect prior to the incurring of each such expense, in
connection with the business of the Company prior to Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control. 
  
 2.2 Additional Cash Severance Benefits. In the event of the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the Executive shall be entitled to
receive (a) an amount equal to twelve (12) months of the Executive’s Base Salary, plus (b) an amount equal twelve (12) months of the Executive’s Annual Bonus. The amount set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be paid in cash in a single lump
sum payment within ten (10) days following the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control. 
  
 2.3 Stock Option or Restricted Stock Acceleration. 
  
 2.3.1 Acceleration of Vesting and Exercisability. Upon the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the vesting or exercisability, of
outstanding stock options and shares of restricted stock granted to the Executive under the Company’s 1994 Flexible Stock Incentive Plan, 1998 Stock Plan, 2000 Stock Plan, and 2001 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan or under any other equity grant
made by the Company (together, the “Company Plans”) shall be accelerated, such that, upon such Termination Upon Change of Control, 1/48th of the shares subject to each such stock option and restricted stock grant shall vest, or become exercisable, for each month from its grant date through the Change of Control and the greater of (a)
25% of all shares subject to each of the Executive’s options and 25% of all shares of each of the Executive’s restricted stock grants, or (b) 50% of unvested shares subject to each of the Executive’s options and 50% of unvested shares
of each of the Executive’s restricted stock grants, after taking into account the monthly acceleration described above, shall vest or become exercisable. 
  

2.3.2 Acceleration Following Non-Assumption. If there is a Change of Control, involving a merger of the Company with or into another corporation
or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, in which outstanding stock options or shares of restricted stock granted prior to such Change of Control under the Company Plans are not fully assumed or replaced by fully equivalent
substitute stock options or restricted stock of the Successor or by an equivalent amount of cash that preserves the spread determined at the time of such Change of Control on the unvested portion of the options or shares of restricted stock, then:
(a) outstanding stock options and shares of restricted stock granted to the Executive under the Company Plans shall have their vesting, or exercisability, accelerated such that 100% of all shares subject to each of the Executive’s options and
100% of all shares of each of the Executive’s restricted stock grants shall vest, or become exercisable, immediately prior to the effective date of such Change of Control; and (b) the Company shall provide reasonable prior written notice, at
least fifteen (15) days prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, to the Executive of (i) the date such unexercised stock options and/or restricted stock grants will terminate, and (ii) the period during which the Executive may exercise the
stock options. 
  
 2.4 Additional Insurance Benefits. In
the event of the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits described in this Section 2.4. 
  
 2.4.1 Life Insurance Coverage. For a period of twelve (12) months following the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the Company
shall provide group life insurance coverage at the same level of coverage, and at the same premium cost, if any, as was provided to the Executive immediately prior to the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control; provided, however; that
if it is not feasible for the Company to secure benefits comparable to such prior insurance coverage through an insurance carrier of Successor at the same premium cost to the Executive, the Company shall pay to the Executive an amount equivalent to
the premium previously paid on behalf of the Executive for life insurance coverage for the applicable period. If prior to the expiration of the twelve (12) month period following the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the
Executive secures new employment that provides comparable life insurance benefits, the Company’s obligation to provide the additional life insurance benefits set forth in this Section 2.4 shall terminate. 
  

 2 

 2.4.2 COBRA. If the Executive timely elects coverage under the Consolidated Budget Reconciliation
Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), the Company shall continue to provide to the Executive, at the Company’s expense, the Company’s health related and other standard employee insurance coverage as in effect
immediately prior to the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control for a period of twelve (12) months following such Termination Upon Change of Control. The date of the “qualifying event” for the Executive and any dependents
shall be the Termination Date. 
  
 2.5 Indemnification. In
the event of the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, (a) the Company shall continue to indemnify the Executive against all claims related to actions arising prior to the termination of the Executive’s employment to the fullest
extent permitted by law, and (b) if the Executive was covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ insurance policy, or an equivalent thereto, (the “D&O Insurance Policy”) immediately prior to the
Change of Control, the Company or its Successor shall continue to provide coverage under a D&O Insurance Policy for twenty-four (24) months following the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control on substantially the same terms of the
D&O Insurance Policy in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control. 
  
 3. FEDERAL EXCISE TAX UNDER SECTION 280G 
  
 3.1
Reimbursement of Excise Tax. If (a) any amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise are characterized as excess parachute payments pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), and (b) the Executive thereby would be subject to any United States federal excise tax due to that characterization, then the Executive may elect, in the Executive’s sole discretion, to reduce the amounts
payable under this Agreement or otherwise, or to have any portion of applicable options or restricted stock not vest or become exercisable, in order to avoid any “excess parachute payment” under Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code. 

 
 3.2 Calculation by Independent Public Accountants. Unless the
Company and the Executive otherwise agree in writing, any calculation of the amount of any excess parachute payments payable by the Executive shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants (the
“Accountants”), whose determination, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company. For purposes of making such calculation, the Accountants may rely on reasonable, good faith
interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Executive shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make the required
calculation. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses the Accountants may charge in connection with such calculation.
