 TALEO CORPORATION 
 JASON BLESSING EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This Agreement is entered into as of July 11, 2011 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Taleo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”) and Jason Blessing (“Executive”). The term of this Agreement shall be four (4) years from the Effective Date. The parties agree to engage in a good faith review and renewal evaluation of this Agreement at the
third anniversary of the Effective Date. If at the time of expiration of this Agreement the Company is engaged in discussions that may involve a Change in Control, as defined below, the term if this agreement shall be automatically extended by
eighteen (18) months from the original date of expiration. 
 1. Duties and Scope of Employment. 

(a) Positions and Duties. As of the Effective Date, Executive will serve as Executive Vice President, Products and Technology.
Executive will assume and discharge such responsibilities as are commensurate with such position and as the Chief Executive Officer may direct from time to time. During Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall devote
Executive’s full time, skill and attention to Executive’s duties and responsibilities and shall perform faithfully, diligently and competently. In addition, Executive shall comply with and be bound by the operating policies, procedures and
practices of the Company in effect from time to time during Executive’s employment. The period of Executive’s employment under this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Employment Term.” 

(b) Obligations. During the Employment Term, Executive will devote Executive’s full business efforts and time to the Company.
For the duration of the Employment Term, Executive agrees not to actively engage in any other employment, occupation, or consulting activity for any direct or indirect remuneration (including membership on a board of directors) without the prior
approval of the Chief Executive Officer; provided, however, that Executive may, without the approval of the Chief Executive Officer, serve in any capacity with any civic, educational, or charitable organization, provided such services do not
interfere with Executive’s obligations to the Company. Executive will report solely and directly to the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors and, to the extent required by law, regulation or principles of proper corporate
governance, the audit or similar committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). 
 2. At-Will
Employment. Executive and the Company agree that Executive’s employment with the Company constitutes “at-will” employment. Executive and the Company acknowledge that this employment relationship may be terminated at any time, upon
written notice to the other party, with or without good cause or for any or no cause, at the option either of the Company or Executive. However, as described in this Agreement, Executive may be entitled to severance benefits depending upon the
circumstances of Executive’s termination of employment. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive will be entitled to payment of all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, and
other benefits due to Executive through Executive’s termination date under any Company-provided or paid plans, policies, and arrangements. Executive agrees to resign from all positions that Executive holds with the Company immediately following
the termination of Executive’s employment if Company so requests. 

 3. Compensation.

(the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary will be paid periodically in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices (but no less frequently than once per month) and be subject to the usual, required withholding. Executive’s
Base Salary will be subject to periodic review and adjustment (subject to Section 6(g)(ii) and the other provisions of this Agreement), and such adjustments will be made based upon the Company’s standard practices or the discretion of the
Company’s Board of Directors. Adjustments to Base Salary shall be incorporated into this Agreement upon the effective date of the adjusted Base Salary. 

(b) Bonus. Executive’s annual target for the aggregate amount of annual and quarterly bonuses will be
$182,000 USD (“Target Bonus”). Allocation, eligibility and payment of Target Bonus will be based upon achievement of quarterly or yearly performance goals established in good faith and approved by the Chief Executive Officer. Executive
will have the opportunity to discuss the nature of such performance goals with the Chief Executive Officer prior to such performance goals being approved by the Chief Executive Officer. Target Bonus amounts will not be earned unless Executive
remains employed through the relevant quarter (for quarterly bonus payments) and through the end of the fiscal year (for annual bonus payments). Bonus payments, if any, will be made no later than the 15th day of the third month following the later of (i) the end of
the Company’s fiscal year in which such bonus is earned, or (ii) the end of the calendar year in which such bonus is earned. Executive’s Target Bonus will be subject to periodic review and adjustment (subject to Section 6(g)(ii)
and the other provisions of this Agreement), and such adjustments will be made based upon the Company’s standard practices or the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. Adjustments to Target Bonus shall be incorporated into this
Agreement upon the effective date of the adjusted Target Bonus. 
 4. Employee Benefits. 

(a) Vacation. Executive will be eligible to receive four (4) weeks of paid annual vacation. Executive’s use of vacation
will be subject to the terms and conditions of the vacation policies in place at the Company, including without limitation, accrual limits and caps.

 2 

 (ii) an additional lump sum equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s

12 month period following the termination of Executive’s employment, (ii) the expiration of Executive’s continuation coverage under COBRA, or (iii) the date when Executive becomes eligible for substantially equivalent health
insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. 
 (b) If Company or a successor corporation terminates
Executive’s employment for any reason other than Cause (as defined below) or if Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below) and either such event takes place within sixty (60) days prior to or eighteen (18) months following a
Change in Control (as defined below), then Company or the successor corporation will pay Executive:

COBRA, or (3) the date when Executive becomes eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. 
 (c) All benefits set forth in Sections 6(a) and 6(b) are collectively referred to as “Severance.” In the event Executive is entitled to Severance under Section 6(b), Executive will not
longer be entitled to Severance under Section 6(a). Subject to Section 7(a) and to any required six (6) month delay pursuant to Section 14, Severance payments, other than reimbursements of COBRA premiums, shall be made by the
Company in one lump sum and shall be paid within thirty (30) days of any such termination of employment. 

  
 3 

 (d) In addition to Severance, in the event that Company or a successor corporation
terminates Executive’s employment for any reason other than Cause (as defined below) or if Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below) and either such event did not take place within sixty (60) days prior to or
eighteen (18) months following a Change in Control (as defined below), then (i) Executive will receive immediate vesting with respect to the number of unvested stock options and stock appreciation rights that would have vested in
accordance with Executive’s then-current stock option grants and stock appreciation rights had Executive remained employed for an additional 6 months, (ii) the Company’s right of repurchase shall immediately lapse with respect to
Executive’s then-current restricted stock grants for which the Company’s right of repurchase would otherwise have lapsed within 6 months from the date of such termination or resignation of employment, and (iii) the Executive will
receiving immediate vesting with respect to Executive’s outstanding restricted stock units, performance shares and other equity compensation that would have vested had Executive remained employed for an additional 6 months. If an award vests in
whole or in part on the achievement of performance metrics that have not been achieved at the time of the Executive’s termination or resignation, vesting of such awards shall not be accelerated. In the event of Executive’s termination of
employment as described in this subsection (d), the Executive’s then vested stock options shall be exercisable for 3 months after Executive’s date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no case shall any option be exercisable
after the expiration of its term. 
 (e) In addition to Severance, in the event that Company or a successor corporation
terminates Executive’s employment for any reason other than Cause (as defined below) or if Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below) and either such event takes place within sixty (60) days prior to or eighteen (18) months
following a Change in Control (as defined below), Executive will receive immediate vesting with respect to all unvested stock options and stock appreciation rights that are held by Executive, the Company’s right of repurchase shall lapse
entirely with respect to restricted stock grants from the Company to Executive, and the vesting of all Executive’s outstanding restricted stock units, performance shares and other equity compensation shall immediately vest in full; provided,
however, if the award vests in whole or in part on the achievement of performance metrics, such metrics shall be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels (unless otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement). In the event of Executive’s
termination of employment as described in this subsection (e), the Executive’s then outstanding stock options shall be exercisable for 3 months after Executive’s date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no case shall any
option be exercisable after the expiration of its term. 
 (f) For purposes of this Section 6, “Cause” means
(i) any act of dishonesty taken by Executive in the course of performing Executive’s duties hereunder, (ii) Executive’s conviction of a felony, (iii) any act by Executive that constitutes material misconduct,
(iv) repeated failures to follow the lawful, reasonable instructions of the Chief Executive Officer consistent with Executive’s duties hereunder, or (v) substantial and repeated violations of Executive’s fiduciary duties,
responsibilities or obligations to Company. 
 (g) For purposes of this Section 6, “Good Reason” means without
Executive’s written consent, (i) a significant reduction of Executive’s duties, position or responsibilities relative to Executive’s duties, position or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction, other than
where Executive is asked to assume substantially similar duties and responsibilities in a larger entity after a Change in Control; (ii) a reduction of Executive’s Base Salary or Target Bonus other than a one-time reduction that does not

successor entity after a Change in Control to assume this Agreement. If Executive does not notify Company in writing that Executive believes a significant reduction of Executive’s duties, position or responsibilities has occurred pursuant to
this Section 6 within 60 days of the event or occurrence that Executive believes to have resulted in such a significant reduction, then such reduction shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement as not constituting Good Reason, as that terms

 4 

 (h) For purposes of this Section 6, “Change in Control” means the occurrence
of any of the following events: (i) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
of securities of the Company representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities and such change in ownership results in broad management changes at Company; or
(ii) the consummation of the sale or disposition by Company of all or substantially all of Company’s assets; or (iii) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or
consolidation which would result in the voting securities of Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or its parent)
more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of Company or such surviving entity or its parent outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation. 

(i) Notwithstanding the above, Company’s Chief Executive Officer reserves the right to make reasonable organizational structure
changes reasonably commensurate with the position of Chief Executive Officer. Such changes may include the shifting or reassignment of divisional, geographic or team responsibilities among members of the executive team. Such changes are within the
reasonable discretion of the Chief Executive Officer and shall not constitute Good Reason, as that term is used in this Section 6. 
 (j) Termination due to Death or Disability. If Executive’s employment terminates by reason of death or Disability, then (i) Executive will be entitled to receive benefits only in
accordance with the Company’s then applicable plans, policies, and arrangements, and (ii) Executive’s outstanding equity awards will terminate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement(s).

 (k) Sole Right to Severance. This Agreement is intended to represent Executive’s sole entitlement to severance
payments and benefits in connection with the termination of Executive’s employment. To the extent Executive receives cash severance under any other Company plan, program, agreement, policy, practice, or the like, cash severance payments due to
Executive under this Agreement will be correspondingly reduced. Executive will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment contemplated by this Agreement, nor will any earnings that Executive may receive from any other source reduce any
such payment. 
 7. Conditions to Receipt of Severance. 

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. The receipt of any severance pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to
Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims (the “Release”) in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company which becomes effective within sixty (60) days following Executive’s employment
termination date or such earlier date as required by the Release (such deadline, the “Release Deadline”). The Release will provide (among other things) that Executive will not disparage the Company, its directors, or its executive
officers, and will contain No-Inducement, No-Solicit and Non-Compete terms consistent with this Agreement. No severance pursuant to this Agreement will be paid or provided until the Release becomes effective. Notwithstanding any timing of payment
provision in Section 6, in the event severance payments provided under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) would be considered Deferred Payments (as defined in Section 14 below), then the following timing of payments will apply to such
Deferred Payments, in each case subject to any delay in payment required by the provisions of Section 14 (and provided the Release becomes effective): 
 (i) If the Release Deadline is on or before December 10 of the calendar year in which Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any final regulations and official guidance promulgated thereunder (together, “Section 409A”)) occurs, any portion of the severance payments or benefits provided under Section 6(a) or
Section 6(b) that would be considered Deferred Payments will be paid to Executive on or before December 31 of that calendar year or such later time as required by Section 14 of this Agreement, if applicable; and 

  
 5 

 (ii) If the Release Deadline is after December 10 of the calendar year in which
Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A) occurs, any portion of the severance payments or benefits provided under Section 6(a) or Section 6(b) that would be considered Deferred Payments
will be paid on the first payroll date to occur during the calendar year following the calendar year in which such separation of service occurs or such later time as required by (A) the Release Deadline, or (B) Section 14 of this
Agreement, if applicable. 
 (b) Non-solicitation and other terms. In the event of a termination of Executive’s
employment that otherwise would entitle Executive to the receipt of Severance pursuant to Section 6, Executive agrees that as a condition to receipt of Severance, during the 12-month period following termination of employment, Executive,
directly or indirectly, whether as employee, owner, sole proprietor, partner, director, founder or otherwise, will (i) not hire, solicit, induce, or influence any person to modify Executive’s employment or consulting relationship with the
Company (the “No-Inducement”), and (ii) not solicit, divert or take away or attempt to solicit, divert or take away the business of any customer or prospective customer of the Company (the “No-Solicit”). If Executive
breaches the No-Inducement or No-Solicit, all payments and benefits to which Executive otherwise may be entitled pursuant to Section 6 will cease immediately and shall be repaid to Company. Executive acknowledges that the time, geographic and
scope limitations of my obligations under this section that are to be reflected in a separation agreement are reasonable, especially in light of the Company’s desire to protect its Confidential Information and the Severance and other benefits
set forth herein, and that Executive will not be precluded from gainful employment as a result of the obligations of this section. In the event the provisions of this section are deemed to exceed the time, geographic or scope limitations permitted
by applicable law, then such provisions shall be reformed to the maximum time, geographic or scope limitations, as the case may be, then permitted by such law. The covenants contained in this section shall be construed as a series of separate
covenants, one for each city, town, suburb and state within the geographical area. For purposes of this Section 7, “geographical area” shall mean (i) all counties in the State where Executive was employed by the Company;
(ii) all other states of the United States of America from which the Company derived revenue at any time during the two-year period prior to the date of the termination of Executive’s relationship with the Company, and (iii) all other
province, state, city or other political subdivision of each country from which the Company derived revenue at any time during the two-year period prior to the date of the termination of Executive’s relationship with the Company. 

8. Indemnification and Insurance. Executive will be covered under the Company’s insurance policies and, subject to applicable
law, will be provided indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the Company’s bylaws, Certificate of Incorporation, and standard form of Indemnification Agreement, with such insurance coverage and indemnification to be in accordance
with the Company’s standard practices for senior executive officers but on terms no less favorable than provided to any other Company senior executive officer or director. 

9. Confidential Information. 
 (a) Company Information. The Executive will not, at any time, whether during or subsequent to Executive’s employment hereunder, directly or indirectly, disclose or furnish to any other person, firm
or corporation, or use on behalf of himself/herself or any other person, firm or corporation, any confidential or proprietary information acquired by the Executive in the course of Executive’s employment with Company, including, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, product design, product roadmaps, future product plans, contractual details relating to current Company clients, buying habits of present and prospective clients of Company, pricing and sales policy,
techniques and concepts, the names of customers or prospective customers of Company or of any person, firm or corporation who or which have or shall have treated or dealt with Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, any other
information acquired by the Executive regarding the methods of conducting the business of Company and any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates, any information regarding the company’s methods of research and development, of obtaining business,
of manufacturing, of providing or advertising products or services, or of obtaining customers, trade secrets and other confidential information concerning the business operations of Company or any company and/or entity affiliated with Company,
except to the extent that such information is already generally known in the public domain or such disclosure is required by applicable law, rule, or regulation, or by any governmental agency or authority or other recognized subpoena power.

  
 6 

 (b) Former Employer Information. Executive agrees, during employment with Company,
not to improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or concurrent employer or other person or entity and that Executive will not bring onto the premises of Company any unpublished document or proprietary
information belonging to any such employer, person or entity unless consented to in writing by such employer, person or entity. 

(c) Third Party Information. Executive recognizes that Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties
their confidential or proprietary information subject to a duty on Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. Executive agrees to hold all such confidential or proprietary
information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it to any person, firm or corporation or to use it except as necessary in carrying out work for the Company consistent with Company’s agreement with such third party. 

(d) Assignment of Inventions. Executive agrees to promptly make full written disclosure to Company, will hold in trust for the
sole right and benefit of the Company and hereby assigns to the Company, or its designee, all right, title and interest in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, improvements, or trade secrets, whether
or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar laws, which Executive may solely or jointly conceive or develop or reduce to practice, or cause to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice, during the period of time Executive is
in the employ of Company (collectively referred to as “Inventions”). Executive further acknowledges that all original works of authorship which are made by Executive (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the period
of Executive’s employment with Company and which are protectible by copyright are “works made for hire” as that term is defined in the relevant copyright act. 
 (e) Inventions Retained and Licensed. Executive has attached hereto, as Schedule A, a list of all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements, and trade secrets which were
made by me prior to my employment with Company (collectively referred to as “Prior Inventions”), which belong to Executive, which relate to Company’s proposed business, products or research and development, and which are not assigned
to Company hereunder; or, if no such list is attached, Executive represents that there are no such Prior Inventions. If in the course of Executive’s employment with Company, Executive incorporates into a Company product, process or machine a
Prior Invention owned by Employee or in which Executive has an interest, Company is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to make, have made, modify, use, and sell such Prior Invention
as part of or in connection with such product, process or machine. 
 (f) Maintenance of Records. Executive agrees to
keep and maintain adequate and current written records of all Inventions made by Executive (solely or jointly with others) during the term of my employment with Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, and any other
format that may be specified by Company. The records will be available to and remain the sole property of Company at all times. 

  
 7 

 (g) Patent and Copyright Registrations. Executive agrees to assist Company, or its
designee, at Company’s expense, in every proper way to secure Company’s rights in the Inventions and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including the
disclosure to Company of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other instruments which Company shall deem necessary in order to apply for and obtain
such rights and in order to assign and convey to Company, its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole and exclusive rights, title and interest in and to such Inventions, and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property
rights relating thereto. Executive further agrees that Executive’s obligation to execute or cause to be executed, when it is in Executive’s power to do so, any such instrument or papers shall continue after the termination of this
Agreement. If Company is unable because of Executive’s mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason to secure Executive’s signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any Canadian or foreign patents or copyright
registrations covering Inventions or original works of authorship assigned to Company as above, then Executive hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive’s agent and attorney in
fact, to act for and in Executive’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent or copyright registrations thereon with the
same legal force and effect as if executed by Executive. 
 (h) Return of Company Documents. Executive agrees that, at
the time of leaving the employ of Company, Executive will deliver to Company (and will not keep in my possession, recreate or deliver to anyone else) any and all devices, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence,
specifications, drawings blueprints, sketches, materials, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any aforementioned items developed by me pursuant to Executive’s employment with Company or otherwise belonging to Company,
its successors or assigns. 
 10. Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
(a) the heirs, executors, and legal representatives of Executive upon Executive’s death and (b) any successor of the Company. Any such successor of the Company will be deemed substituted for the Company under the terms of this
Agreement for all purposes. For this purpose, “successor” means 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. None of the rights of Executive to receive any form of compensation payable pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned or transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any other
attempted assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits will be null and void. 
 11. Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications called for hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally,
(b) one day after being sent by a well established commercial overnight service, or (c) four days after being mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, prepaid and addressed to the parties or their successors at the

 12. Severability. If any provision hereof becomes or is declared by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect without said provision. 
 13. Arbitration. 
 (a) General. In consideration of Executive’s
service to the Company, its promise to arbitrate all employment related disputes, and Executive’s receipt of the compensation, pay raises, and other benefits paid to Executive by the Company, at present and in the future, Executive agrees that
any and all controversies, claims, or disputes with anyone (including the Company and any employee, officer, director, shareholder, or benefit plan of the Company in their capacity as such or otherwise) arising out of, relating to, or resulting from
Executive’s service to the Company under this Agreement or otherwise or the termination of Executive’s service with the Company, including any breach of this Agreement, will be subject to binding arbitration under the Arbitration Rules set
forth in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1280 through 1294.2, including Section 1283.05 (the “Rules”) and pursuant to California law. Disputes which Executive agrees to arbitrate, and thereby agrees to waive any right
to a trial by jury, include any statutory claims under state or federal law, including, but not limited to, claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the California Labor Code, claims of harassment, discrimination, or wrongful termination, and any statutory claims. Executive further
understands that this Agreement to arbitrate also applies to any disputes that the Company may have with Executive. 
 (b)
Procedure. Executive agrees that any arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and that a neutral arbitrator will be selected in a manner consistent with its National Rules for the Resolution
of Employment Disputes. The arbitration proceedings will be held in the county of Taleo US headquarters and will allow for discovery according to the rules set forth in the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes or California
Code of Civil Procedure. Executive agrees that the arbitrator will have the power to decide any motions brought by any party to the arbitration, including motions for summary judgment and/or adjudication and motions to dismiss and demurrers,
prior to any arbitration hearing. Executive agrees that the arbitrator will issue a written decision on the merits. Executive understands the Company will pay for any administrative or hearing fees charged by the arbitrator or AAA except that
Executive will pay the first $200.00 of any filing fees associated with any arbitration Executive initiates. Executive agrees that the arbitrator will administer and conduct any arbitration in a manner consistent with the Rules and that to the
extent that the AAA’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes conflict with the Rules, the Rules will take precedence. 
 (c) Remedy. Except as provided by the Rules, arbitration will be the sole, exclusive, and final remedy for any dispute between Executive and the Company. Accordingly, except as provided for by the
Rules, neither Executive nor the Company will be permitted to pursue court action regarding claims that are subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have the authority to disregard or refuse to enforce any lawful Company
policy unless such policy is in conflict with the explicit terms of this Agreement, and the arbitrator will not order or require the Company to adopt a policy not otherwise required by law which the Company has not adopted. 

(d) Availability of Injunctive Relief. In addition to the right under the Rules to petition the court for provisional relief,
Executive agrees that any party also may petition the court for injunctive relief where either party alleges or claims a violation of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement or any other agreement regarding trade secrets, confidential
information, nonsolicitation, noninducement or Labor Code §2870. 

  
 9 

 (e) Administrative Relief. Executive understands that this Agreement does not
prohibit Executive from pursuing an administrative claim with a local, state, or federal administrative body such as the Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or the workers’ compensation board.
This Agreement does, however, preclude Executive from pursuing court action regarding any such claim. 
 (f) Voluntary Nature
of Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive is executing this Agreement voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence by the Company or anyone else. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Executive has
carefully read this Agreement and that Executive has asked any questions needed for Executive to understand the terms, consequences, and binding effect of this Agreement, including that Executive is waiving Executive’s right to a jury trial.
Finally, Executive agrees that Executive has been provided an opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Executive’s choice before signing this Agreement. 
 14. Section 409A. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, no severance payments or benefits payable to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, is considered deferred compensation under
Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be payable until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to Executive, if any, pursuant to this
Agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

 (b) Further, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of
Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), any Deferred Payments that otherwise are payable within the first six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service will become payable on the first payroll
date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule
applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of Executive’s death following Executive’s separation from service but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of Executive’s
separation from service (or any later delay date), then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death and all other Deferred
Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each payment and benefit payable under the Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of
the Treasury Regulations. 
 (c) Any severance payment that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral”
rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations shall not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of the Agreement. Any severance payment that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from
service pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit shall not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of the Agreement. For purposes of this subsection (c),
“Section 409A Limit” will mean the lesser of two (2) times: (i) Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to Executive during the Company’s taxable year preceding the Company’s
taxable year of Executive’s separation from service as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(1) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may
be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which Executive’s employment is terminated. 

  
 10 

 (d) The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the requirements of
Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided under the Agreement will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. Executive
and the Company agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to the Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to
actual payment to Executive under Section 409A. 
 15. Integration. This Agreement represents the entire agreement
and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements whether written or oral. No waiver, alteration, or modification of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be binding
unless in a writing that specifically references this Section and is signed by duly authorized representatives of the parties hereto. Executive agrees to work in good faith with the Company to consider amendments to this Agreement which are
necessary or appropriate to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment to Executive of payments or benefits under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
will be deemed amended, without any consent required from Executive, to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition pursuant to Section 409A prior to actual payments under this Agreement to Executive.
The parties agree to cooperate with each other and to take reasonably necessary steps in this regard. With respect to stock options and awards of restricted stock granted on or after the date hereof, the acceleration of vesting provisions provided
herein will apply to such awards except to the extent otherwise explicitly provided in the applicable equity award agreement. 

16. Waiver of Breach. The waiver of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement, which must be in writing, will not
operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other previous or subsequent breach of this Agreement. 
 17. Survival.
The Company’s and Executive’s responsibilities under Sections 9 and 13 and all other provisions intended by their terms to survive the termination of this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement. 

18. Headings. All captions and section headings used in this Agreement are for convenient reference only and do not form a part of
this Agreement. 
 19. Tax Withholding. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to withholding of
applicable taxes. 
 20. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of California (with the
exception of its conflict of laws provisions). 
 21. Acknowledgment. Executive acknowledges that Executive has had the
opportunity to discuss this matter with and obtain advice from Executive’s private attorney, has had sufficient time to, and has carefully read and fully understands all the provisions of this Agreement, and is knowingly and voluntarily
entering into this Agreement. 
 22. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and may be exchanged
by fax or electronically scanned and emailed copies. Each counterpart will have the same force and effect as an original and will constitute an effective, binding agreement on the part of each of the undersigned. 

  
 11 

 23. Parachutes. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the
contrary, in the event that any payments or benefits received or to be received by Executive in connection with Executive’s employment with Company (or termination thereof) would subject Executive to the excise tax imposed under
Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Excise Tax”), and if the net-after tax amount (taking into account all applicable taxes payable by Executive, including without limitation any Excise Tax) that
Executive would receive with respect to such payments or benefits is less than the net-after tax amount Executive would receive if the amount of such payments and benefits were reduced to the maximum amount which could otherwise be payable to
Executive without the imposition of the Excise Tax, then, and only the extent necessary to eliminate the imposition of the Excise Tax, such payments and benefits shall be so reduced. Any reduction in payments and/or benefits required by this
Section 23 will occur in the following order: (a) reduction of cash payments; (b) reduction of vesting acceleration of equity awards; and (c) reduction of other benefits paid or provided to Executive. In the event that
acceleration of vesting of equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting will be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant for Executive’s equity awards. If two or more equity awards are granted on the same date, each
award will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. In no event shall the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of payment reductions. 
 Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 23 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm
selected by the Company, the Company’s legal counsel or such other person or entity to which the parties mutually agree (the “Accountants”), whose determination will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all
purposes. 
 For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 23, the Accountants may make reasonable
assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Accountants such
information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 23. The Company will bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations
contemplated by this Section 23.
