AMENDED AND RESTATED

EXPEDIA, INC. RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

FOR DARA KHOSROWSHAHI

     This Agreement, dated as of the award date (the “Award Date”), designated on the
Summary of Award referenced below, as amended as of December 31, 2008 and amended and restated as
of April 8, 2009, between Expedia, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), and Dara Khosrowshahi
(the “Eligible Individual”) designated as receiving an award of restricted stock units (the
“Restricted Stock Units”) by the Compensation/Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation (or such other Committee as the Board may from time to time designate) (the
“Committee”).

     All capitalized terms used herein, to the extent not defined, shall have the meanings set
forth in the Corporation’s 2005 Stock and Annual Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

1. Award and Vesting of Restricted Stock Units

     (a) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to the provisions of the Plan, the
Corporation hereby grants to the Eligible Individual 800,000 restricted stock units (the
“Restricted Stock Units”) pursuant to Section 7 of the Plan. Reference is made to the “Summary of
Award” that can be found on the Smith Barney Benefit Access System at www.benefitaccess.com. Your
Summary of Award, which sets forth the number of Restricted Stock Units granted to you by the
Corporation and the Award Date (among other information), is hereby incorporated by reference into,
and shall be read as part and parcel of, this Agreement.

     (b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the
Restricted Stock Units shall vest and no longer be subject to any restriction (such period during
which restrictions apply is the “Restriction Period”) in the event both (i) one of the two
performance goals approved by the Committee (the “Performance Goals”) and relating to EBITA or the
Corporation’s stock price is achieved and (ii) the OIBA Target (as defined below) is achieved
(collectively, the “Combined Goals”):

	 	 	 	 	 
	Vesting Date

	 	Percentage of Total Grant

Vesting

	 
	 	 	 	 
	Upon the attainment by the Corporation of the
Combined Goals (as further referenced below);
provided, however, that,
at the election of the Corporation, such vesting shall be
conditioned on the Eligible Individual agreeing to remain
employed as the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation for
an additional two years following satisfaction of the Combined
Goals on no less favorable terms to the Eligible Individual than
the terms of employment as in effect at the time of such
agreement

	 	 	75	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	On the one year anniversary of the attainment of the
Combined Goals, provided the Eligible Employee has not
voluntarily terminated his employment with the Corporation
and has not been terminated by the Corporation for Cause

	 	 	25	%

 

 

     “OIBA Target” as used herein means that certain Corporation operating income before
amortization (“OIBA”) target approved by the Committee with respect to the vesting of Restricted
Stock Units awarded to the Eligible Individual under this Agreement. The “Modified OIBA Target” as
used herein means that certain OIBA target approved by the Committee with respect to any fiscal
year in which the Eligible Individual’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause.

     (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 1(b), if the Eligible Individual incurs a
Termination of Employment by the Corporation without Cause during a fiscal year in which the
Modified OIBA Target is met and prior to such Termination of Employment one of the Performance
Goals has been met, then 75% of the Restricted Stock Units will vest (and the Restriction Period
shall lapse for such Restricted Stock Units) as soon as practicable following the determination by
the Committee within sixty (60) days following the end of the applicable fiscal year that the
Modified OIBA Target and one of the Performance Goals have been met and all remaining unvested
Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited by the Eligible Individual. If the Committee determines
that either (x) the Modified OIBA Target has not been met, or (y) both of the Performance Goals
have not been met, then all the Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited immediately, provided,
however, that the Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all
remaining restrictions with respect to any or all of such Eligible Individual’s Restricted Stock
Units.

     (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 1(b), in the event the Eligible Individual
incurs a Termination of Employment by the Corporation for Cause, or the Eligible Individual
voluntarily incurs a Termination of Employment within two years after any event or circumstance
that would have been grounds for a Termination of Employment for Cause, the Eligible Individual’s
Restricted Stock Units (whether or not vested) shall be forfeited and canceled in their entirety
upon such Termination of Employment, and the Corporation may cause the Eligible Individual,
immediately upon notice from the Corporation, either to return the shares or cash issued upon
settlement of Restricted Stock Units that vested during the two-year period after the events or
circumstances giving rise to or constituting grounds for such Termination of Employment for Cause
or to pay to the Corporation an amount equal to the aggregate amount, if any, that the Eligible
Individual had previously realized in respect of any and all shares issued upon settlement of
Restricted Stock Units that vested during the two-year period after the events or circumstances
giving rise to or constituting grounds for such Termination of Employment for Cause (i.e., the
value of the Restricted Stock Units upon vesting), in each case including any dividend equivalents
or other distributions received in respect of any such Restricted Stock Units.

     (e) In the event the Eligible Individual incurs a Termination of Employment during the
Restriction Period for any reason other than as set forth in Paragraph 1(c) or Paragraph 5 (with
respect to a Change of Control), all remaining unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited
by the Eligible Individual and canceled in their entirety effective immediately upon such
termination.

     (f) For purposes of this Agreement, employment with the Corporation shall include employment
with the Corporation’s Affiliates and its successors. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall
confer upon the Eligible Individual any right to continue in the employ of the Corporation or any
of its Affiliates or interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation or any such Affiliates
to terminate the Eligible Individual’s employment at any time.

 

 

2. Settlement of Units

     As soon as practicable (but in no event later than five business days) after any Restricted
Stock Units have vested and are no longer subject to the Restriction Period, such Restricted Stock
Units shall be settled. Subject to Paragraph 8 (pertaining to the withholding of taxes), for each
Restricted Stock Unit settled pursuant to this Paragraph 2, the Corporation shall (i) if the
Eligible Individual is employed within the United States, issue one share of Common Stock for each
vested Restricted Stock Unit and cause to be delivered to the Eligible Individual one or more
unlegended, freely-transferable stock certificates in respect of such shares issued upon settlement
of the vested Restricted Stock Units or (ii) if the Eligible Individual is employed outside the
United States, pay, or cause to be paid, to the Eligible Individual an amount of cash equal to the
Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock for each vested Restricted Stock Unit settled at
such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall be entitled to hold the shares or
cash issuable upon settlement of Restricted Stock Units that have vested until the Corporation or
the agent selected by the Corporation to manage the Plan under which the Restricted Stock Units
have been issued (the “Agent”) shall have received from the Eligible Individual a duly executed
Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable.

3. Non-Transferability of the Restricted Stock Units

     During the Restriction Period and until such time as the Restricted Stock Units are ultimately
settled as provided in Paragraph 2 above, the Restricted Stock Units shall not be transferable by
the Eligible Individual by means of sale, assignment, exchange, encumbrance, pledge, hedge or
otherwise.

4. Rights as a Stockholder

     Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, during the Restriction Period the
Eligible Individual shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the
Restricted Stock Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation declares and pays
dividends on the Common Stock during the Restriction Period, the Eligible Individual will be
credited with additional amounts for each Restricted Stock Unit equal to the dividend that would
have been paid with respect to such Restricted Stock Unit if it had been an actual share of Common
Stock, which amount shall remain subject to restrictions (and as determined by the Committee, may
be reinvested in Restricted Stock Units or may be held in kind as restricted cash or property) and
shall vest concurrently with the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units upon which such dividend
equivalent amounts were paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends and distributions other than
regular quarterly cash dividends, if any, may result in an adjustment pursuant to Paragraph 5,
rather than under this Paragraph 4.

5. Adjustments in the Event of Change in Stock; Change in Control

     (a) Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 5(b), in the event of (i) a stock dividend, stock
split, reverse stock split, share combination, or recapitalization or similar event affecting the
capital structure of the Corporation (each, a “Share Change”), or (ii) a merger, consolidation,
acquisition of property or shares, separation, spinoff, reorganization, stock rights offering,
liquidation, Disaffiliation, payment of cash dividends other than an ordinary dividend or similar
event affecting the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Corporate Transaction”), the
Committee or the Board may in its discretion make such substitutions or adjustments as it deems
appropriate and equitable to the number of Restricted Stock Units and the number and kind of shares
of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units.

 

 

     In the case of Corporate Transactions, such adjustments may include, without limitation (i)
the cancellation of the Restricted Stock Units in exchange for payments of cash, property or a
combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such Restricted Stock Units, as
determined by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion, (ii) the substitution of other
property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Corporation and securities
of entities other than the Corporation) for the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted
Stock Units and (iii) in connection with any Disaffiliation, arranging for the assumption of the
Restricted Stock Units, or the replacement of the Restricted Stock Units with new awards based on
other property or other securities (including, without limitation, other securities of the
Corporation and securities of entities other than the Corporation), by the affected Subsidiary,
Affiliate or division or by the entity that controls such Subsidiary, Affiliate or division
following such Disaffiliation (as well as any corresponding adjustments to any Restricted Stock
Units that remain based upon securities of the Corporation).

     The determination of the Committee regarding any such adjustment will be final and conclusive
and need not be the same for all recipients of restricted stock units granted under the Plan.

     (b) In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan; provided, however, that for
the purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall in addition include any such event,
including the termination of the irrevocable proxy held by Barry Diller to vote shares of the
Corporation held by Liberty Media Corporation or its affiliates, or acquisition by Liberty Media
Corporation and their respective affiliates of Beneficial Ownership of equity securities of the
Corporation whereby Liberty Media Corporation acquires or assumes more than 35% of the voting power
of the then outstanding equity securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors), then 50% of the Restricted Stock Units shall automatically vest without
regard to the achievement of the OIBA Target or the Performance Goals. If, within one year
following such Change of Control, (i) the Eligible Individual incurs a material and demonstrable
adverse change in the nature and scope of the Eligible Individual’s duties from those in effect
immediately prior to the Change of Control, or (ii) the Eligible Individual incurs a Termination of
Employment by the Corporation without Cause, then the remaining Restricted Stock Units shall vest,
in each case without regard to the achievement of the OIBA Target or the Performance Goals. This
Paragraph 5(b) shall not apply to the Eligible Individual’s Restricted Stock Units in the event of
the Eligible Individual’s Termination of Employment prior to a Change in Control.

6. Payment of Transfer Taxes, Fees and Other Expenses

     The Corporation agrees to pay any and all original issue taxes and stock transfer taxes that
may be imposed on the issuance of shares received by an Eligible Individual in connection with the
Restricted Stock Units, together with any and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by
the Corporation in connection therewith.

 

 

7. Other Restrictions

     (a) The Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the requirement that, if at any time the
Committee shall determine that (i) the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of
Common Stock subject or related thereto upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal
law, or (ii) the consent or approval of any government regulatory body is required, then in any
such event, the award of Restricted Stock Units shall not be effective unless such listing,
registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any
conditions not acceptable to the Committee.

     (b) The Eligible Individual acknowledges that the Eligible Individual is subject to the
Corporation’s policies regarding compliance with securities laws, including but not limited to its
Securities Trading Policy (as in effect from time to time and any successor policies) and pursuant
to these policies, if the Eligible Individual is on the Corporation’s insider list, the Eligible
Individual shall be required to obtain pre-clearance from the Corporation’s General Counsel prior
to purchasing or selling any of the Corporation’s securities, including any shares issued upon
vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, and may be prohibited from selling such shares other than
during an open trading window. The Eligible Individual further acknowledges that, in its
discretion, the Corporation may prohibit the Eligible Individual from selling such shares even
during an open trading window if the Corporation has concerns over the potential for insider
trading.

8. Taxes and Withholding

     No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of
the Eligible Individual for federal, state, local or foreign income or employment or other tax
purposes with respect to any Restricted Stock Units, the Eligible Individual shall pay to the
Corporation, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation regarding the payment of, any
federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to
such amount. The obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement shall be conditioned on
compliance by the Eligible Individual with this Paragraph 8, and the Corporation and its Affiliates
shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment
otherwise due to the Eligible Individual, including deducting such amount from the delivery of
shares or cash issued upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units that gives rise to the
withholding requirement.

9. Notices

     All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be

Good Reason (as defined below), then:

(i) the Company shall continue to pay Executive the Base Salary through the longer of (x) the
end of the Term over the course of the then remaining Term and (y) 12 months (such period,
the “Salary Continuation Period” and such payments, the “Cash Severance Payments”), in each
case payable in equal biweekly installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice
as in effect from time to time;

(ii) the Company shall pay Executive within 30 days of the date of such termination in a lump
sum in cash any Accrued Obligations;

(iii) the Company will consider in good faith the payment of a discretionary bonus on a pro
rata basis for the year in which the Termination of Employment occurs, any such payment to be
paid (if at all) based on actual performance during the year in which termination has
occurred and based on the number of days of employment during such year relative to 365 days
(payable in a lump sum at the time such annual bonus would otherwise have been paid);

(iv) any compensation awards of Executive based on, or in the form of, Company equity (e.g.
restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options or similar instruments) (“Equity
Awards”) that are outstanding and unvested at the time of such termination but which would,
but for a termination of employment, have vested during the 12 months following such
termination (such period, the “Equity Acceleration Period”) shall vest (and with respect to
awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights, settle) as of the date of such
termination of employment; provided that any outstanding award with a vesting
schedule that would, but for a termination of employment, have resulted in a smaller
percentage (or none) of the award being vested, through the end of such Equity Acceleration
Period than if it vested annually pro rata over its vesting period shall, for purposes of
this provision, be treated as though it vested annually pro rata over its vesting period
(e.g., if 100 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were granted 2.7 years prior to the date of the
termination and vested pro rata on each of the first five anniversaries of the grant date and
100 RSUs were granted 1.7 years prior to the date of termination and vested on the fifth
anniversary of the grant date, then on the date of termination 20 RSUs from the first award
and 40 RSUs from the second award would vest and settle);
provided further that any
amount that would vest under this provision but for the fact that outstanding performance
conditions have not been satisfied shall vest (and with respect to awards other than stock
options and stock appreciation rights, settle) only if, and at such point as, such
performance conditions are satisfied; and provided further that to the extent that
any such equity awards constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” within the meaning
of Section 409A, such awards shall vest, but only settle in accordance with their terms (it

2

 

being understood that it is intended that no equity awards outstanding as of the date of this
Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section
409A); and

(v) any then vested options of Executive (including options vesting as a result of (iv)
above) to purchase Company equity, shall remain exercisable through the date that is 18
months following the date of such termination or, if earlier, through the scheduled
expiration date of such options.

The expiration of the Term shall not give rise to any payment to Executive or acceleration
obligation under this Section 1(d). The payment to Executive of the severance benefits described in
this Section 1(d) shall be subject to Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a general
release, within 30 days of the date of termination of Executive’s employment, of the Company and
its affiliates in a form substantially similar to that used for similarly situated executives of
the Company and its affiliates and Executive’s compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth
in Section 2 (other than any non-compliance that is immaterial, does not result in harm to the
Company or its affiliates, and, if curable, is cured by Executive promptly after receipt of notice
thereof given by the Company). Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s payment of
severance benefits described in this Section 1(d) constitutes good and valuable consideration for
such release.

As used herein, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following without Executive’s
prior written consent: (A) the Company’s material breach of any material provision of this
Agreement, (B) the material reduction in Executive’s title, duties, reporting responsibilities or
level of responsibilities as General Counsel of the Company, excluding for this purpose any such
reduction that is an isolated and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith or that is authorized
pursuant to this Agreement, (C) the material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or Executive’s
total annual compensation opportunity, or (D) the relocation of Executive’s principal place of
employment more than 50 miles outside the Seattle metropolitan area, provided that in no
event shall Executive’s resignation be for “Good Reason” unless (x) an event or circumstance set
forth in clauses (A) through (D) shall have occurred and Executive provides the Company with
written notice thereof within 30 days after Executive has knowledge of the occurrence or existence
of such event or circumstance, which notice specifically identifies the event or circumstance that
Executive believes constitutes Good Reason, (y) the Company fails to correct the circumstance or
event so identified within 30 days after receipt of such notice, and (z) Executive resigns within
90 days after the date of delivery of the notice referred to in clause (x) above. Notwithstanding
the preceding provisions of this Section 1(d), in the event that Executive is a “specified
employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A) on the date of termination of Executive’s employment
with the Company and the Cash Severance Payments to be paid within the first six months following
such date (the “Initial Payment Period”) exceed the amount referenced in Treas. Regs. Section
1.409A-l(b)(9)(iii)(A) (the “Limit”), then (1) any portion of the Cash Severance Payments that is a
“short-term deferral” within the meaning of Treas. Regs. Section 1.409A-l(b)(4)(i) shall be paid at
the times set forth in Section 1(d), (2) any portion of the Cash Severance Payments (in addition to
the amounts contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (1)) that is payable during the
Initial Payment Period that does not exceed the Limit shall be paid at the times set forth in
Section 1(d) as applicable, (3) any portion of the Cash

3

 

Severance Payments that exceeds the Limit and is not a “short-term deferral” (and would have been
payable during the Initial Payment Period but for the Limit) shall be paid, with Interest, on the
first business day of the first calendar month that begins after the six-month anniversary of
Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A) and (4) any portion of
the Cash Severance Payments that is payable after the Initial Payment Period shall be paid at the
times set forth in Section l(d). For purposes of this Agreement, “Interest” shall mean interest at
the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code, from the date on
which payment would otherwise have been made but for any required delay through the date of
payment.

(e) OFFSET. If Executive obtains other employment during the Salary Continuation Period,
any payments to be made to Executive under Section l(d) hereof after the date such employment is
secured shall be offset by the amount of compensation earned by Executive from such employment. For
purposes of this Section l(e), Executive shall have an obligation to inform the Company regarding
Executive’s employment status following termination and during the Salary Continuation Period, but
shall have no affirmative duty to seek alternate employment.

(f) ACCRUED OBLIGATIONS. As used in this Agreement, “Accrued Obligations” shall mean the
sum of (i) any portion of Executive’s accrued and earned but unpaid Base Salary through the date of
death or termination of employment for any reason, as the case may be; (ii) any compensation
previously earned but deferred by Executive (together with any interest or earnings thereon) that
has not yet been paid and that is not otherwise paid at a later date pursuant to any deferred
compensation arrangement of the Company to which Executive is a party, if any (provided, that any
election made by Executive pursuant to any deferred compensation arrangement that is subject to
Section 409A regarding the schedule for payment of such deferred compensation shall prevail over
this Section l(f) to the extent inconsistent herewith); and (iii) other than in the event of
Executive’s resignation without Good Reason or termination by the Company for Cause (except as
required by applicable law), any portion of Executive’s accrued but unpaid vacation pay through the
date of death or termination of employment.

(g) OTHER BENEFITS. Upon any termination of Executive’s employment prior to the expiration
of the Term, Executive shall remain entitled to receive any vested benefits or amounts that
Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of, or any
other contract or agreement with, the Company in accordance with the terms thereof (other than any
such plan, policy, practice or program of the Company that provides benefits in the nature of
severance or continuation pay).

			
	2.	 	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; NON-SOLICITATION; AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

     (a) CONFIDENTIALITY. Executive acknowledges that while employed by the Company,
Executive will occupy a position of trust and confidence. Executive shall not, except as is
appropriate to perform Executive’s duties hereunder or as required by applicable law, disclose to
others, use, copy, transmit, reproduce, summarize, quote or make commercial, whether directly or
indirectly, any Confidential Information. Executive will also take reasonable

4

 

steps to safeguard such Confidential Information and prevent its loss, theft, or inadvertent
disclosure to third persons. This Section 2 shall apply to Confidential Information acquired by
Executive whether prior or subsequent to the execution of this Agreement. “Confidential
Information” shall mean information about the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates,
and their respective clients and customers, including (without limitation) any proprietary
knowledge, trade secrets, data, formulae, information and client and customer lists and all
papers, resumes, and records (including computer records) of the documents containing such
Confidential Information, provided that Confidential Information shall not mean any such
information that is previously disclosed to, or in possession of, the public other than by reason
of Executive’s breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if Executive is
required to disclose any such confidential or proprietary information pursuant to applicable law
or a subpoena or court order, Executive shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any such
requirement so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate
remedy or waive compliance with the provisions hereof. Executive shall reasonably cooperate with
the Company to obtain such a protective order or other remedy. If such order or other remedy is
not obtained prior to the time Executive is required to make the disclosure, or the Company waives
compliance with the provisions hereof, Executive shall disclose only that portion of the
confidential or proprietary information which he is advised by counsel that he is legally required
to so disclose. Executive acknowledges that such Confidential Information is specialized, unique
in nature and of great value to the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates, and that such
information gives the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates a competitive advantage.
Executive agrees to deliver or return to the Company, at the Company’s request at any time or upon
termination or expiration of Executive’s employment or as soon thereafter as possible, all
documents, computer tapes and disks, records, lists, data, drawings, prints, notes and written
information (and all copies thereof) furnished by the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates
or prepared by Executive in the course of Executive’s employment by the Company and its
subsidiaries or affiliates. As used in this Agreement, “affiliates” shall mean any company
controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company.

(b) DUTY OF LOYALTY. In consideration of the Company’s promise to disclose, and disclosure
of, its Confidential Information and other good and valuable consideration provided hereunder, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Executive, Executive hereby agrees and
covenants that: Until the longer of (i) the last day of the Term and (ii) a period of 24 months
beyond Executive’s date of termination of employment for any reason, including the expiration of
the Term (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in, assist
or become associated with a Competitive Activity. For purposes of this Section 2(b): (i) a
“Competitive Activity” means, at the time of Executive’s termination, any business or other
endeavor in any jurisdiction of a kind being conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates (or demonstrably anticipated by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates),
including, without limitation, those that are engaged in the provision of any lodging or travel
related services (including, without limitation, corporate travel services), in any jurisdiction as
of the Effective Date or at any time thereafter (such affiliates including, without limitation,
Hotels.com, Hotwire, Inc. and TripAdvisor); and (ii) Executive shall be considered to have become
“associated with a Competitive Activity” if Executive becomes directly or

5

 

indirectly involved as an owner, principal, employee, officer, director, independent contractor,
representative, stockholder, financial backer, agent, partner, advisor, lender, or in any other
individual or representative capacity with any individual, partnership, corporation or other
organization that is engaged in a Competitive Activity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive
may make and retain investments during the Restricted Period, for investment purposes only, in less
than five percent of the outstanding capital stock of any publicly-traded corporation engaged in a
Competitive Activity if stock of such corporation is either listed on a national stock exchange or
on the NASDAQ National Market System if Executive is not otherwise affiliated with such
corporation.

(c) NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Executive agrees that during the Restricted Period,
Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly,
hire, recruit or solicit the employment or services of (whether as an employee, officer, director,
agent, consultant or independent contractor), any employee, officer, director, agent, consultant or
independent contractor of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any such person
who has terminated his or her relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
affiliates within the six-month period prior to such hiring, recruiting or soliciting (except for
(i) such employment or hiring by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or (ii) such
employment or hiring by Executive of an agent, consultant or independent contractor where the
primary duties of such person are not for the Company); provided, however that a
general solicitation of the public for employment shall not constitute a solicitation hereunder so
long as such general solicitation is not designed to target, or does not have the effect of
targeting, any employee, officer, director, agent, consultant or independent contractor of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. This Section 2(c) shall not apply to any
administrative assistant working directly for Executive.

(d) NON-SOLICITATION OF BUSINESS PARTNERS. During the Restricted Period, Executive shall
not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, persuade or
encourage or attempt to persuade or encourage any business partners or business affiliates of the
Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates to cease doing business with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates or to engage in any business competitive with the Company or its
subsidiaries or affiliates on its own or with any competitor of the Company or its subsidiaries or
affiliates.

(e) PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; ASSIGNMENT. All Executive Developments (as defined below) shall be
made for hire by Executive for the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. “Executive
Developments” means any idea, discovery, invention, design, method, technique, improvement,
enhancement, development, computer program, machine, algorithm or other work or authorship, in each
case, (i) that (A) relates to the business or operations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
or affiliates, or (B) results from or is suggested by any undertaking assigned to Executive or work
performed by Executive for or on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates,
whether created alone or with others, during or after working hours and (ii) that is conceived or
developed during the Term. All Confidential Information and all Executive Developments shall remain
the sole property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Executive shall acquire
no proprietary interest in any Confidential Information or Executive Developments developed or
acquired during the Term.

6

 

To the extent Executive may, by operation of law or otherwise, acquire any right, title or interest
in or to any Confidential Information or Executive Development, Executive hereby assigns to the
Company all such proprietary rights. Executive shall, both during and after the Term, upon the
Company’s request, promptly execute and deliver to the Company all such assignments, certificates
and instruments, and shall promptly perform such other acts, as the Company may from time to time
in its reasonable discretion deem necessary or desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, perfect,
enforce or defend the Company’s rights in Confidential Information and Executive Developments.

(f) COMPLIANCE WITH POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. During the Term, Executive shall adhere to the
policies and standards of professionalism set forth in the Company’s Policies and Procedures as
they may exist from time to time. Executive hereby consents to, and expressly authorizes, the
Company’s use of Executive’s name and likeness in trade publications and other media for trade or
commercial purposes.

(g) REMEDIES FOR BREACH. Executive expressly agrees and understands that the Company will
have 30 days from receipt of Executive’s notice of any alleged breach by the Company of this
Agreement to cure any such breach. Executive expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at
law for any breach by Executive of this Section 2 will be inadequate and that damages flowing from
such breach are not usually susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is
acknowledged that upon Executive’s violation or threatened violation of any provision of this
Section 2, the Company shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction
immediate injunctive relief and obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further
breach as well as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such violation
or threatened violation without the requirement of posting any bond. Nothing in this Section 2
shall be deemed to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of
any of the provisions of this Section 2, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.

(h) SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in this Section 2 shall, to the
extent provided in this Section 2, survive the termination or expiration of Executive’s employment
with the Company and, as applicable, shall be fully enforceable thereafter in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any state that
any restriction in this Section 2 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or
unenforceable under the laws of that state, it is the intention of the parties that such
restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent
permitted by the law of that state.

3. MERGER. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and
terminates and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral)
between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges
and agrees that neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has made, and is not making,
and in executing this Agreement, Executive has not relied upon, any representations, promises or
inducements except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement.

7

 

4. ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS. This Agreement is personal in its nature and none of the
parties hereto shall, without the consent of the others, assign or transfer this Agreement or any
rights or obligations hereunder; provided, that, in the event of a merger, consolidation,
transfer, reorganization, or sale of all, substantially all or a substantial portion of, the
assets of the Company with or to any other individual or entity, this Agreement shall, subject to
the provisions hereof, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor in
interest in such transaction, and such successor shall discharge and perform all the promises,
covenants, duties, and obligations of the Company hereunder, and all references herein to the
“Company” shall refer to such successor.

5. WITHHOLDING. The Company shall make such deductions and withhold such amounts from each
payment and benefit made or provided to Executive hereunder, as may be required from time to time
by applicable law, governmental regulation or order.

6. HEADING REFERENCES. Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for
convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other
purpose. References to “this Agreement” or the use of the term “hereof” shall refer to these
Standard Terms and Conditions and the Employment Agreement attached hereto, taken as a whole.

7. WAIVER; MODIFICATION. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms,
covenants, or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition,
nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance with, any
right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such
right or power at any other time or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect
except by a writing executed by each party hereto.

8. SEVERABILITY. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any
portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public policy, only the portions of this
Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this Agreement
that do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further,
any court order striking any portion of this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly
as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties under this
Agreement.

9. SECTION 409A. The Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A
or an exemption or exclusion therefrom and, with respect to amounts that are subject to Section
409A, shall in all respects be administered in accordance with Section 409A. Each payment under
this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. In no event may
Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this
Agreement. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement that constitute
deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A shall be made or provided in accordance
with the requirements of Section 409A, including, without limitation, that (i) in no event shall
reimbursements by the Company under this Agreement be made later than the end of the calendar year
next following the calendar year in which the applicable fees and expenses were incurred, provided,
that Executive shall have

8

 

submitted an invoice for such fees and expenses at least 10 days before the end of the calendar
year next following the calendar year in which such fees and expenses were incurred; (ii) the
amount of in-kind benefits that the Company is obligated to pay or provide in any given calendar
year shall not affect the in-kind benefits that the Company is obligated to pay or provide in any
other calendar year; (iii) Executive’s right to have the Company pay or provide such reimbursements
and in-kind benefits may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit; and (iv) in no event
shall the Company’s obligations to make such reimbursements or to provide such in-kind benefits
apply later than Executive’s remaining lifetime (or if longer, through the 20th
anniversary of the Effective Date). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event
that any amounts payable or benefits to be provided to Executive under Section l.(d) or any other
arrangement to which Executive is a party or participant constitute deferred compensation within
the meaning of Section 409A, (i) if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of
Section 409A (as determined in accordance with the methodology established by the Company as in
effect on the date of termination), amounts that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation”
within the meaning of Section 409A that would otherwise be payable and restricted stock units that
constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” that would otherwise have been settled under
Section l(d) during the six-month period immediately following the date of termination shall
instead be paid, with Interest determined as of the date of termination, or settled, on the first
business day after the date that is six months following Executive’s “separation from service”
within the meaning of Section 409A; (ii) if Executive dies following the date of termination and
prior to the payment of the any amounts delayed on account of Section 409A, such amounts shall be
paid to, and such restricted stock units shall be settled with, the personal representative of
Executive’s estate within 30 days after the date of the Executive’s death; and (iii) in no event
shall the date of termination of Executive’s employment be deemed to occur until Executive
experiences a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, the date on which such separation from service takes
place shall be the date of termination.
