 Exhibit 10.2 
 GLASSHOUSE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 
 Employment Agreement 
 In consideration of my employment or continued employment, as the case may be, by Glass House Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), and the grant
of options to purchase shares of common stock, par value $.001 (“Common Stock”), of the Company, I, the undersigned employee, hereby agree with the Company as follows: 
 1. Proprietary Information. 
 (a) I
understand that the Company possesses and will continue to possess information that has been or will be created, discovered, developed or otherwise become known to the Company (including, without limitation, information created, discovered,
developed or made known to me during the period of my employment by the Company to be used in the actual or anticipated business of the Company) or in which property rights have been or will be assigned or otherwise conveyed to the Company, which
information has commercial value in the business in which the Company is engaged and is treated by the Company as confidential or proprietary. All such information is hereafter called “Proprietary Information.” By way of illustration, but
not limitation, Proprietary Information includes processes, formulas, data, computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies, new products,
marketing plans, forecasts, unpublished financial statements, business forms, contract forms, report formats, budgets, projections, licenses, prices, costs, customer, client and supplier lists and employee information and any other information of a
similar nature not available to the public, whether oral or written, in drawings or in machine-readable form, and whether or not expressly marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary.” I acknowledge that the development and acquisition
of the Proprietary Information are the result of great effort and expense on the part of the Company and are critical to the success and survival of the Company. 
 (b) All Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights and other rights related thereto. I hereby assign to the Company any rights
I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information. At all times, both during my employment by the Company and after its termination for whatever reason, I will keep in strictest confidence and trust all Proprietary Information, and I will not
use or disclose any Proprietary Information without the prior written consent of the Company, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing my duties as an employee of the Company. In the event of the termination of my employment
by me or by the Company for any reason or upon three (3) business days after written request by the Company, I will deliver to the Company all documents, notes, drawings, specifications, data, and other materials of any nature pertaining to my
work with the Company and/or containing Proprietary Information, and I will not take with me or retain any of the foregoing, any reproduction of any of the foregoing, or any Proprietary Information that is embodied in a tangible medium of
expression. For purposes of the third and fourth sentence of this Section 1(b), Proprietary Information shall include confidential or proprietary information the Company has received and may in the future receive from third parties, which is
subject to the Company’s obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. 
 2. Developments, Etc. 
 (a) I will promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) all processes,
formulas, data, computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies and new products, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or
similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment that are related to or useful in the actual or anticipated business of the Company, result from
tasks assigned to me by the Company, or result from the use of premises owned, leased or contracted for by the Company (all of the foregoing are hereinafter referred to as “Developments”). To the fullest extent permitted by law, the
Developments will be deemed work made for hire. I will also promptly disclose to the Company, and the Company hereby agrees to receive all such disclosures in confidence, all other processes, formulas, data, 

 
computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies and
new products, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statues, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment for the purpose of
determining whether they constitute Developments. The provisions of this Section 2 will apply to all Developments which are conceived or developed during the term of my employment with the Company, whether or not further development or
reduction to practice may take place after termination of my employment. 
 (b) I agree that all Developments shall be the sole property of
the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights and other rights in connection therewith. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Developments. I further agree as to all such
Developments to assist the Company in every proper way (but at the Company’s expense) to obtain and from time to time enforce patents, copyrights and other rights and protections relating to said Developments in any and all countries, and to
that end I will execute all documents for use in applying for and obtaining such patents, copyrights and other rights and protections and enforcing such Developments, as the Company may desire, together with any assignments thereof to the Company or
persons designated by it. My obligation to assist the Company in obtaining and enforcing patents, copyrights and other rights and protections relating to such Developments in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of my
employment, but the Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for time actually spent by me at the Company’s request on such assistance. 
 3. Former Employment. I represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement and as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary
information acquired by me in confidence or in trust prior to my employment by the Company. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith. I represent, as part of the
consideration for the offer of employment extended to me by the Company and of my employment or continued employment (as the case may be) by the Company, and the grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company that I have not
brought and will not bring with me to the Company for use in the performance of any of my responsibilities for the Company any materials or documents of a former employer that are not generally available to the public, unless I have obtained express
written authorization from the former employer for their possession and use. I also understand that, in my employment with the Company, I am not to breach any obligation of confidentiality that I have to former employers, and I agree that I shall
fulfill all such obligations during my employment with the Company. 
 4. Other Employment; Extent of Service. I agree that during the
period of my employment by the Company I will not, without the Company’s prior express written consent, engage in any employment or business other than for the Company. During the term of my employment, I agree to use my best efforts in, and
shall devote substantially all of my working time, attention, skill and energies to, the advancement of the interests of the Company and the performance of my duties and responsibilities in connection with my employment with the Company. 

5. Covenant Not to Compete. 
 (a) I
agree that in the event I am terminated from Company for Cause or resign for a reason other than Good Reason, I will not, for a period of one (1) year after my separation from Company, serve as a compensated or uncompensated employee, or
provide any labor or services for any company, that is directly competitive with the Company at the time of my separation. 
 1. For purposes
of this Agreement, “Cause” shall be defined as theft of Company property, falsification of Company documents or records or improper use or disclosure of Company’s confidential or proprietary information, the failure or inability to
perform any reasonable assigned duties after written notice from Company and a reasonable opportunity to cure such failure or inability, conviction of any felony or conviction of any criminal act (other than ordinary traffic violations) which
impairs or calls into question they ability to perform duties with Company, material breach of Company’s written policies which 

  

 2 

 
materially and adversely affects Company and which are not cured within a reasonable time period, and/or the occurrence of severe physical or mental
disability such that I cannot perform my duties with or without reasonable accommodation. 
 2. “Good reason” shall mean the
occurrence of any of the following without my express written consent: (a) a material diminution in my authority or responsibilities; (b) a material reduction in my salary, benefits or other fringe benefits (unless reductions comparable in
amount and duration are concurrently made for all other Employees of the Company with responsibilities, organizational level and title comparable to mine); or (c) without my consent, the relocation of my principal place of employment more than
50 miles from my then-current principal place of employment or the imposition of travel requirements substantially more demanding on me. 
 3. This provision (Section 5) shall not become effective until I have completed six (6) months of employment. 
 (b) The
restrictions against competition set forth in this Section 5 are considered by the parties to be reasonable for the purposes of protecting the business of the Company. However, if any such restriction is found by any court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, I agree that it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range
of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable. 
 6. Non-Solicitation. During the period of my employment with
the Company and for one (1) year following the termination of my employment for any reason, I agree that I will not, either on my own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, (i) hire, solicit, or
encourage to leave the employ of the Company any person who is or was an employee of the Company at any time during my employment with the Company, or (ii) solicit, entice away or divert all or part of the business of any person or entity who
is then a client or customer of the Company or who was a client or customer of the Company at the time of my employment, or of any potential client or customer of the Company of which I had knowledge during my employment by the Company. I agree that
client or customer lists, business contracts and related items are the property of the Company and are considered Proprietary Information hereunder. The restrictions described herein shall apply to my activities anywhere in the United States.

 7. Injunctive Relief. I acknowledge and agree that the extent of damage to the Company in the event of a breach by me of any of the
covenants contained in this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to ascertain and that there would be no adequate remedy at law available to the Company in the event of such breach. Consequently, I agree that, in the event of such breach, the
Company shall be entitled to enforce any or all of the covenants contained in this Agreement by injunctive or other equitable relief in addition to receiving damages or other relief to which the Company may be entitled. 
 8. Enforcement. If any portion of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall be enforceable to the maximum
extent possible. 
 9. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon me, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns.

 10. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to
its choice of laws principles. I agree that the state or federal courts located within The Commonwealth of Massachusetts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of this Agreement, and I hereby agree to submit to personal
jurisdiction of such courts. 
 11. No Contract of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a contract of
employment between myself and the Company or as a commitment on the part of the Company to retain me in any capacity for any period of time. 
  

 3 

 12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the Company and
me relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous written or oral agreements between us relating to the subject matter hereof. 
 I HAVE READ ALL OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND I UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO, EACH OF SUCH PROVISIONS.

 4Executive Retention Agreement with Mark Shirman

 Exhibit 10.3 
 GLASSHOUSE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 
 Executive Retention Agreement 
 This Executive Retention Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of March 1, 2004 (the “Effective
Date”), by and between Mark Shirman (the “Employee”) and GlassHouse Technologies, Inc, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 1 below. 

RECITALS 
 A. The board of
directors of the Company (the “Board”) recognizes that the possibility of an Involuntary Termination exists, particularly in connection with a Change in Control, and that such possibility may result in the distraction of the Employee to
the detriment of the Company and its stockholders. 
 B. The Board believes that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage
the continued employment and dedication of the Employee without distraction from the possibility of an Involuntary Termination and related events and circumstances. 
 C. In order to provide the Employee with enhanced financial security and sufficient encouragement to remain with the Company notwithstanding the possibility of an Involuntary Termination, the Board believes that it is
imperative to provide the Employee with certain severance benefits upon an Involuntary Termination under the circumstances described below. 
 D. The Board believes it is appropriate for the Employee, as a member of the Company’s management team, to receive certain severance benefits in the event of Death or Disability. 
 AGREEMENT 
 In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and the
continued employment of Employee by the Company, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Definition of Terms. The following terms referred
to in this Agreement shall have the following meanings: 
 (a) Cause. “Cause” shall mean (i) any act of personal
dishonesty taken by the Employee in connection with his responsibilities as an employee which is intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of the Employee, (ii) Employee’s conviction of a felony which the Board reasonably
believes has had or will have a material detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or business, (iii) a willful act by the Employee which constitutes misconduct and is materially injurious to the Company, or (iv) continued and
willful failure by the Employee to perform reasonably assigned duties to the Company after there has been delivered to the Employee a written demand for performance from the Company which describes the basis for the Company’s belief that the
Employee has failed to perform his duties. 
 (b) Change of Control. “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of
the following events: 
 (i) the approval by stockholders of the Company of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other entity,
other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by 

 
remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power
represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; 
 (ii) the approval by the stockholders of the Company or the Board of a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; or

 (iii) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
becoming the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding
voting securities. 
 (c) Death. “Death” shall mean the death of the Employee, regardless of cause. 
 (d) Disability. “Disability” shall mean the inability of the Employee to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any
medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in Death or which has lasted, or can be reasonably expected to last, for a continuous period of not less than 12 months. 
 (e) Involuntary Termination. “Involuntary Termination” shall mean the termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company by
reason of: 
 (i) The involuntary discharge of the Employee by the Company (or any parent or subsidiary of the Company employing him)
for reasons other than Cause; or 
 (ii) the voluntary resignation of the Employee following any of the following events, if such event
occurs without the Employee’s express written consent: (A) a substantial reduction of the Employee’s duties, position or responsibilities relative to the Employee’s duties, position or responsibilities in effect immediately prior
to such reduction, unless the reduction occurs solely by virtue of the Company being acquired and made part of a larger entity (as, for example, when the Chief Financial Officer of a corporation remains as such following a change of control of such
corporation but is not made the Chief Financial Officer of the acquiring corporation); (B) a substantial reduction, without good business reasons, of the facilities and perquisites (including office space and location) available to the Employee
immediately prior to such reduction; (C) a reduction by the Company of the Employee’s base salary as in effect immediately prior to such reduction by more than 20%, unless such reduction is made in connection with a reduction in base
salaries of employees of the Company generally; (D) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits to which the Employee is entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that the Employee’s
overall benefits package is significantly reduced, unless such reduction is made in connection with a reduction in the kind or level of employee benefits of employees of the Company generally; (E) the relocation of the Employee to a facility or
a location more than fifty (50) miles from his current location; or (F) the failure of the Company to obtain the assumption of this Agreement by any successors contemplated in Section 4(a) below. 
 (f) Termination Date. “Termination Date” shall mean the effective date of any notice of termination delivered by one party to the other
hereunder or, if sooner, the date of Death. 
 2. At-Will Employment. The Company and the Employee acknowledge that the
Employee’s employment is and shall continue to be “at will,” as defined under applicable law. If the Employee’s employment terminates for any reason, the Employee shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages, awards
or compensation other than as provided by this Agreement, or as may otherwise be established under the Company’s then existing employee benefit plans or policies at the time of termination. The Employee is not waiving any rights that he may
have under applicable governing law.

 3. Severance Benefits. 
 (a) Termination Following A Change of Control. If the Employee is subject to an Involuntary Termination upon or at any time within twelve
(12) months after a Change of Control, the Employee shall be entitled to the following severance benefits: 
 (i) Twelve
(12) months of Employee’s base salary as in effect as of the date of such termination, less applicable withholding, payable in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of the Involuntary Termination; 
 (ii) The vesting of all stock options and shares of restricted stock granted by the Company to the Employee prior to the Change of Control shall be
accelerated in full; 
 (iii) The same level of health (i.e., medical, vision and dental) coverage and benefits as in effect for the

amended; and (ii) Employee elects continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA. The Company shall continue to
provide Employee with health coverage until the earlier of (i) the date the Employee is no longer eligible to receive continuation coverage pursuant to COBRA and (ii) twelve (12) months from the Termination Date.

effect as of the date of such termination, less applicable withholding, payable in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of the Involuntary Termination; 
 (ii) The vesting of all stock options and shares of restricted stock granted by the Company to the Employee prior to the Termination Date shall be accelerated such that the Employee is vested in the number of stock
options and shares of restricted stock as the Employee would have been vested had the Employee’s employment with the Company continued for a period of twelve (12) months following the Involuntary Termination; 
 (iii) The same level of health (i.e., medical, vision and dental) coverage and benefits as in effect for the Employee on the day immediately preceding
the day of the Involuntary Termination; provided, however, that (i) the Employee constitutes a qualified beneficiary, as defined in Section 4980B(g)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and (ii) Employee elects
continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA. The Company shall continue to provide Employee with health coverage
until the earlier of (i) the date the Employee is no longer eligible to receive continuation coverage pursuant to COBRA and (ii) twelve (12) months from the Termination Date. 
 (c) Termination as a Result of Death or Disability. If the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated as a result of Death or by
the Employee due to Disability, then the Employee (or his estate) shall be entitled to the following severance benefits: 
 (i) The vesting
of all stock options and shares of restricted stock granted by the Company to the Employee prior to the Termination Date shall be accelerated such that the Employee is 

  

 -3- 

 
vested in the number of stock options and shares of restricted stock as the Employee would have been vested had the Employee’s employment with the
Company continued for a period of twelve (12) months following the Termination Date. 
 (d) General Release of Claims. Any other
provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, the Employee (or his estate) shall not be entitled to any severance benefits pursuant to this Agreement unless the Employee (or his estate) has (i) executed a general release of all claims (in a form
prescribed by the Company) and (ii) returned all property of the Company in the Employee’s possession. 
 (e) Accrued Wages,
Bonus and Vacation; Expenses. Without regard to the reason for, or the timing of, termination of the Employee’s employment: (i) the Company shall pay the Employee any unpaid base salary due for periods prior to the Termination Date;
(ii) the Company shall pay the Employee all of the Employee’s accrued and unpaid bonus through the Termination Date; (iii) the Company shall pay the Employee all of the Employee’s accrued and unused vacation through the
Termination Date; and (iv) following submission of proper expense reports by the Employee, the Company shall reimburse the Employee for all expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred by the Employee in connection with the business of the
Company prior to the Termination Date. These payments shall be made promptly upon termination and within the period of time mandated by law. 
 4. Successors. 
 (a) Company’s Successors. Any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect and whether
by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets shall assume the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and agree expressly to perform the
Company’s obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform such obligations in the absence of a succession. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term
“Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets which executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in this Section 4(a) or which becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement by operation
of law. 
 (b) Employee’s Successors. Without the written consent of the Company, Employee shall not assign or transfer this
Agreement or any right or obligation under this Agreement to any other person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of this Agreement and all rights of Employee hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by,
Employee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. 
 5.
Notices. 
 (a) General. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In the case of the Employee, mailed notices shall be addressed to him at the home address
which he most recently communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, mailed notices shall be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices shall be directed to the attention of its President. 
 (b) Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Employee’s employment by the Company for Cause or by the Employee in circumstances
described in Section 1(c)(ii) shall be communicated by a notice of termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with this Section. Such notice shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, shall
set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination under the provision so indicated, and shall specify the Termination Date (which shall be not more than 30 days after the giving of such notice).
The failure by the Employee to include in the notice any fact or circumstance 

  

 -4- 

 
which contributes to a showing of Involuntary Termination shall not waive any right of the Employee hereunder or preclude the Employee from asserting such
fact or circumstance in enforcing his rights hereunder. 
 6. Arbitration. 
 (a) Any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the interpretation, validity, construction,
performance, breach, or termination thereof, shall be settled by binding arbitration to be held in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect of the American
Arbitration Association (the “Rules”). The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment
may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction. 
 (b) The arbitrator(s) shall apply Massachusetts law to
the merits of any dispute or claim, without reference to conflicts of law rules. The arbitration proceedings shall be governed by federal arbitration law and by the Rules, without reference to state arbitration law. The Employee hereby consents to
the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Massachusetts for any action or proceeding arising from or relating to this Agreement or relating to any arbitration in which the parties are participants. 
 (c) The Employee understands that nothing in this Section 6 modifies the Employee’s at-will employment status. Either the Employee or the
Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 
 (d) THE EMPLOYEE HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THIS
SECTION 6, WHICH DISCUSSES ARBITRATION. THE EMPLOYEE UNDERSTANDS THAT SUBMITTING ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, PERFORMANCE, BREACH OR TERMINATION THEREOF
TO BINDING ARBITRATION, CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF THE EMPLOYEE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE FOLLOWING
CLAIMS: 
 (i) ANY AND ALL CLAIMS FOR WRONGFUL DISCHARGE OF EMPLOYMENT; BREACH OF CONTRACT, BOTH EXPRESS AND IMPLIED; BREACH OF THE COVENANT

such payment be reduced by any earnings that the Employee may receive from any other source.

Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Employee and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than the Employee). No waiver by either party of any
breach of, or of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement by the other party shall be considered a waiver of any other condition or provision or of the same condition or provision at another time.

supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto; and any prior agreement of the parties hereto

 (d) Choice of Law. The validity,
interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the conflicts of law rules, of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
