	 	2.6	Option to Extend the Agreement. The Licensee may, at its sole option, extend the term of this Agreement for an additional two (2) year period under the following conditions.

  

	 	2.6.1 	The option shall be exercised in writing by the Licensee no later than ninety (90) days prior to the Expiration Date. 

  

	 	2.6.2 	The Licensee shall pay a new license fee and applicable maintenance fee for such extension which shall be calculated as follows: 

  

	 	  	The number of units of (i) EnCase Forensic, (ii) EnCase Enterprise (each examiner is counted as one unit), and (iii) Field Intelligence Model sold during calendar year 2005 shall be
calculated. The resulting unit count shall be compared to the number of units of (i) EnCase Forensic, (ii) EnCase Enterprise (each examiner is counted as one unit), and (iii) Field Intelligence Model sold in calendar year 2007. The unit growth rate
shall be calculated (the “Growth Rate”). Growth Rate is calculated in the following manner: 

 ((Units sold in
2007)/(unit in 2005))^(1/2) 
  

	 	  	The number of units of (i) EnCase Forensic, (ii) EnCase Enterprise (each examiner is counted as one unit), and (iii) Field Intelligence Model sold during the twelve (12) months
ending on the date three (3) months prior to the Expiration Date shall be calculated (the “Renewal Unit Count”). The renewal fee for an addition 2 year term shall be equal to: 

 (Renewal Unit Count x [*****] x Growth Rate) + (Renewal Unit Count x [*****] x Growth Rate^2). 
  

	 	  	By way of example, if units sold in 2005 = 1000, units sold in 2007 = 1200, Renewal units = 1300 than the following calculations would
apply: 

 Growth rate = (1200/1000)^(1/2) = 1.095 
 Renewal fee = (1300 x [*****] x 1.095) + (1300 x [*****] x 1.095^2) = [*****] 
  

	[*****]	Confidential material redacted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

	 	2.6.3 	The new license and maintenance fees shall be due and payable in full thirty (30) days following the Licensee’s written exercise of this option. 

 

	 	2.6.4 	In the event Licensee is acquired prior to the Expiration Date, the acquiring party may renew the Agreement for an additional 12-month term from the Expiration Date. The renewal
license fee for an additional 12-month term shall be equal to: Renewal Unit Count × [*****] × Growth Rate. 

  

	 	2.7	In consideration of the terms herein, Stellent Chicago agrees that it will not license any of the Components described in Exhibits A-I, A-II, A-III, or A-IV to [*****], or any
acquirer of the majority of the stock or assets of [*****] (but, for any such acquirer, only with respect to the [*****] line of products or their natural successors) for a period of two (2) years from the Effective Date of this Agreement.

                                , 2006 and effective as of the date of the Revocation (as
defined herein), by and among Guidance Software, Inc., a California corporation (the “Company”), the persons listed on Schedule A attached hereto (individually, a “Stockholder” and, collectively, the

 WHEREAS, the Company is and has been an “S corporation” (as defined herein) since October 1, 1998;

 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements
hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE I 
  
 DEFINITIONS 
  
 1.1 Definitions. The following terms as used herein have the
following meanings: 
  
 “Adjustment” means
(i) any adjustment, pursuant to a Final Determination, to any Tax Return of the Company for any particular S Taxable Year, or (ii) the filing of an amended Tax Return by the Company for any particular S Taxable Year, in each case that
results in an increase or decrease to the Net Income of the Company or one or more Stockholders, or results in a change in the character of such income for tax purposes, as determined by reference to the Tax Return originally filed or the most
recent amended Tax Return filed by the Company for such S Taxable Year. 
  
 “C Short Year” means that portion of the Company’s year beginning on the Termination Date until and including the last day of the S Termination Year. 

 “C Taxable Year” means any taxable year (or portion thereof) of the Company during which
the Company is a C corporation for federal income tax purposes, including the C Short Year. 
  
 “Closing Date” means the date on which the Offering closes. 
  
 “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
  
 “Estimate Correction Adjustment” means an adjustment to the Stockholder Estimated Distribution made in good
faith by the Company after taking into account all items of income, gain, loss, deductions or other tax attributes of the Company for the S Short Year. Such an adjustment would arise if the Stockholder Estimated Distribution did not equal the
Stockholder Final Distribution. 
  
 “Estimate Correction
Amount” shall mean the amount equal to the difference between the Stockholder Estimated Distribution and the Stockholder Final Distribution. An Estimate Correction Amount in favor of the Stockholders is an amount (greater than zero) equal
to the excess of (i) the Stockholder Final Distribution, over (ii) the Stockholder Estimated Distribution. An Estimate Correction Amount in favor of the Company is an amount (greater than zero) equal to the excess of (i) the
Stockholder Estimated Distribution, over (ii) the Stockholder Final Distribution. 
  
 “Final Determination” means a settlement, compromise or other agreement with any Taxing Authority, whether contained in an Internal Revenue Service Form 870 or other comparable form, or otherwise, or
such procedurally later event, such as a closing agreement with the Internal Revenue Service or other Taxing Authority, an agreement contained in Internal Revenue Service Form 870AD or other comparable form, an agreement that constitutes a
determination under Section 1313(a)(4) of the Code, a deficiency notice with respect to which the period for filing a petition with the tax court or the relevant state or local tribunal has expired, or a decision of any court of competent
jurisdiction that is not subject to appeal or as to which the time for appeal has expired. 
  
 “Net Income” means the sum of the Company’s nonseparately computed income or loss (as defined in Section 1366(a)(2) of the Code) and the amount of any item of income (including tax-exempt
income), loss, or deduction of the Company that is separately stated pursuant to Section 1366(a)(1) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. For purposes of this definition, all items of loss or deduction are treated as negative numbers.

  
 “Paid-In Capital” means the amount of money
and the fair market value of other property contributed to or otherwise paid to the Company by each Stockholder in consideration for the Stockholder’s Company stock. 
  
 “S Corporation” has the meaning set forth in Section 1361(a)(1) of the Code.

thereof) during which the Company is an S corporation, including the S Short Year.

2005, over (B) any prior distributions made to such Stockholder by the Company with respect to such Net Income. 
  
 “Stockholder Estimated Distribution” means, for each Stockholder, an amount equal to (i) the Stockholder’s pro rata share of
the estimate of the Company’s Net Income for the S Short Year, over (ii) any prior distributions made to such Stockholder by the Company with respect to such Net Income. The estimate of the Company’s Net Income for the S Short Year
will be reasonably calculated immediately prior to the Offering. 
  
 “Stockholder Final Distribution” means, for each Stockholder, an amount equal to (i) the Stockholder’s pro rata share of the Company’s actual and final Net Income for the S Short Year, over (ii) any
prior distributions made to such Stockholder by the Company with respect to such Net Income. The Company’s actual and final Net Income for the S Short Year shall be reasonably calculated by the Company in good faith within a reasonable period
of time after the close of the S Termination Year. 
  
 “Tax Loss” means any amount by which the taxes payable by the Stockholder in any taxable year as shown on a Tax Return filed by such person is increased as a result of an Adjustment above the amount of taxes that such
person otherwise would have been required to pay. Any Tax Loss shall be calculated after taking into account all other items of income, gain, loss, deductions or other tax attributes of the Stockholder. 
  
 “Tax Return” means any report, declaration, return,
information return, claim for refund, or statement relating to taxes, including any schedule or attachment thereto and any amendments thereof, and including, where permitted or required, combined or consolidated returns.

1362(e)(3) of the Code to allocate the items described in section 1362(e)(2)(A) of the Code under “normal tax accounting rules,” (i.e., under a closing of the books method) and the Stockholders hereby consent to such election and will

any) for filing such Tax Returns, and (c) pay any and all taxes required to be paid for such Stockholder’s taxable year that includes the S Short Year. 
  
 3.3 Liability for Taxes Incurred by the Company During the S Short Year and the C Short Year. The Company shall
(a) be responsible for and effect the filing of all federal and state income or franchise Tax Returns for the Company with respect to the S Short Year and the C Short Year, (b) accurately prepare and timely file such Company Tax Returns,
and (c) pay any and all taxes required to be paid by the Company for the C Short Year and S Short Year. 
  
 3.4 Company’s Indemnification of Stockholders. In the event of either (1) an Estimate Correction Adjustment in favor of a
Stockholder and/or (2) an Adjustment for an S Taxable Year that results in a Tax Loss to a Stockholder, the Company hereby agrees to pay to such Stockholder an amount equal to such Stockholder’s Estimate Correction Amount and/or Tax Loss,
as applicable, attributable to such Estimate Correction Adjustment and/or Adjustment. With respect to states in which the Company has previously filed composite Tax Returns including a Stockholder, the foregoing obligation relating to Tax
Losses shall be accomplished by the Company, as necessary, re-filing the composite Tax Returns and paying directly any additional amounts owed by the Stockholder. 
  
 3.5 Stockholders’ Indemnification of Company. In the event of an Estimate Correction Adjustment in favor of
the Company, each Stockholder, severally but not jointly, agrees to contribute to the capital of Parent the Stockholder’s pro rata share (based upon the relative amount of Company stock held by such Stockholder during the relevant time period)
of an amount equal to the Company’s Estimate Correction Amount. 
  

 4 

 3.6 Gross Up for Additional Tax. In the event that any amounts paid to a Stockholder to
indemnify such Stockholder for a Tax Loss are determined, pursuant to a Final Determination, to constitute taxable income to a Stockholder for federal, state or local tax purposes, the Company hereby agrees to increase any payment to such
Stockholder to the extent necessary to ensure that, after taking into account any income taxes attributable to the receipt of such amounts (including, without limitation, any income taxes attributable additional amounts paid to a Stockholder
pursuant to this Section 3.6), the Stockholder shall have received a net sum equal to what such Stockholder would have received if the amounts payable pursuant to this Article 3 were not treated as taxable income to such Stockholder for
federal, state or local tax purposes, as applicable. 
  
 3.7 Payment. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Stockholder or the Company, as applicable, that a payment is due
hereunder. 
  
 ARTICLE IV 
  
 CONTESTS/COOPERATION 
  
 4.1 Cooperation. If, in the course of any audit or other
administrative proceeding relating to a Tax Return of a Stockholder or the Company, as the case may be, any Taxing Authority proposes any adjustment that, if determined pursuant to a Final Determination, would constitute an Adjustment for an S
Taxable Year that results in a Tax Loss to the Stockholder (a “Proposed Adjustment”), the Stockholder, or the Company, as applicable, will provide notice of such Proposed Adjustment to the other relevant parties hereto. The
parties shall make available to each other, as reasonably requested, and to any Taxing Authority all information, records or documents relating to any liability for taxes covered by this Agreement and shall preserve such information, records and
documents until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof. In the case of any Proposed Adjustment in connection with the audit or other administrative proceeding relating to a Tax Return of any Stockholder,
if such Stockholder elects to pay the tax associated with such Proposed Adjustment and pursue a refund of such amount in the forum of the Stockholder’s choice, the Company shall, promptly after receiving written notice thereof from the
Stockholder, pay an amount to such Stockholder equal to the amount that would be payable by the Company to such Stockholder pursuant to Article 3 hereof if the Proposed Adjustment was an Adjustment; provided, however, that if (x) there is a
Final Determination that the Adjustment, as the case may be, is less than the Proposed Adjustment, the Stockholder shall promptly refund any such difference to the Company on an after tax basis, or (y) there is a Final Determination that the
Adjustment is greater than the Proposed Adjustment, the Company shall promptly pay to the Stockholder an amount equal to such excess in a manner consistent with Article 3. The Stockholder or the Company, as applicable, shall promptly provide
the other relevant parties hereto with a copy of any official document evidencing a Final Determination. The parties will consult and cooperate with each other in the negotiation and settlement or litigation of any adjustment that may give rise
to any payment or indemnification obligation under Article 3. All decisions with respect to such negotiation and settlement or litigation will be made by the parties after full, good faith consultation.
