 ARTICLE 1 
 PURPOSE; EFFECTIVE DATE 
 The purpose of this Management Deferred Compensation Plan is to provide
current tax planning opportunities as well as supplemental funds for retirement or death for a select group of management or highly compensated Partners of the Company. It is intended that the benefits provided under the Plan will aid in attracting
and retaining individuals of exceptional ability. The Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan intended to be an unfunded plan as described in Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. 

The Company originally adopted the Plan with an effective date of October 1, 1998. The Plan was most recently and amended and restated effective
January 1, 2009. This restatement of the Plan is effective January 1, 2011. All amounts earned and vested as of December 31, 2004 shall continue to be governed by the Pre-2005 Plan document in accordance with then applicable law. All
amounts contributed, earned, vested or paid from January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2008 shall be governed by the Pre-2005 Plan, as modified by the operations of the Plan during such period in accordance with Section 409A and then
applicable IRS guidance (including transition relief).

 ARTICLE 3 
 PARTICIPATION AND DEFERRALS 
  

	3.1	Eligibility and Participation 

  

	 	(a)	Eligibility. Eligibility to participate in the Plan shall be limited to those Partners, excluding Ineligible Partners, who have a position at the Company or at
any of its participating Affiliates at the director level or above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Partner who is employed by an entity that is acquired by the Company or any participating Affiliate and who satisfied the eligibility requirements
of this Section 3.1 on or after the acquisition date shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan before the date such Partner is converted onto the Starbucks payroll system. 

 

	 	(b)	Annual Participation. An Eligible Partner may elect to participate in the Plan with respect to any Deferral Period by submitting a Participation Election to the
Committee by the date or dates selected by the Committee, which date or dates shall in no event be later than December 31 of the year preceding the immediately following Deferral Period to which the Participation Election relates.

  

	 	(c)	Part-Year Participation. A Partner who becomes newly eligible to participate in the Plan may begin his or her participation in the Plan by submitting a
Participation Election to the Committee within 30 days after the date the Partner is initially eligible to participate in the Plan pursuant to Section 3.1(a), or such earlier date set by the Committee. The Participation Election shall be
effective for the deferral of only Base Salary paid for services to be performed after the effective date of the Participation Election. No deferral election under this Section 3.1(a) shall apply to Bonus Compensation. If no Participation
Election is submitted within the Partner’s 30-day (or shorter) election period, the Partner shall next be eligible to participate beginning January 1 of the next following calendar year and must submit a Participation Election in
accordance with Section 3.1(b). This Section 3.1(c) shall also apply to a Partner who becomes eligible to participate in the Plan even if he or she were previously so eligible, provided that such Partner was not eligible at any time during
the 24-month period ending on the date when he or she again becomes eligible to participate in the Plan. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, with respect to any Account maintained on behalf of a Partner, the accrual of Earnings pursuant to
Article 6 shall not be treated as eligibility to participate in the Plan. 

  

	
	 STARBUCKS CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN         11

	 	(d)	Change in Employment Status. If a Participant is no longer a member of the eligible group of Partners, any Participation Election currently in effect shall be
continued to the end of the Deferral Period, but no new Participation Election may be made by such Participant for the corresponding Deferral Period. All Account balances for such Participant shall remain in the Plan until they are distributed under
the terms of Article 7. 

  

	3.2	Form of Deferral 

 An
Eligible Partner may elect a deferral in the Participation Election as follows: 
  

	 	(a)	The deferral of a portion of: 

  

	 	(i)	the Base Salary payable by the Company during the applicable Deferral Period; or 

 

	 	(ii)	the Bonus Compensation payable by the Company during the applicable Deferral Period, but only to the extent such deferral is made under Section 3.1(b).

  

	 	(b)	For purposes of deferrals of Base Salary or Bonus Compensation, the amount to be deferred shall be stated as a percentage, not to exceed the maximums and not to be less
than the minimums described in Section 3.3, or in such other manner as provided by the Committee. 

  

	3.3	Limitations on Deferrals 

The following limitations shall apply to deferrals: 
  

	 	(a)	Maximum. The Committee shall establish the maximum percentages of Base Salary and Bonus Compensation that may be deferred for each Plan Year prior to the
beginning of such Plan Year. In no event shall such maximum exceed 95%. 

  

	 	(b)	Minimum. The minimum percentage (excluding amounts payable under the Plan) that may be deferred shall be one percent. 

 

	 	(c)	Changes in Minimum or Maximum. The Committee may change the minimum or maximum deferral amounts from time to time upon written notice. No such change may affect
the amount specified in a Participation Election made prior to the Committee’s action.

 MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS AND DISCRETIONARY CONTRIBUTIONS 
  

	5.1	Matching Contributions 

The Company shall not make any Matching Contributions with respect to the Plan. For periods prior to January 1, 2011, this
Section 5.1 applied to the extent set forth below. 
  

	 	(a)	Effective for Plan Years beginning on and after January 1, 2009, Matching Contributions, if any, shall be made in accordance with this paragraph. The Company shall
have no obligation to make Matching Contributions. However, each Plan Year, the Company may determine in its discretion whether to make Matching Contributions for such Plan Year and the amount of such Matching Contributions. If the Company
determines to make Matching Contributions, the Company shall also determine (a) how the Matching Contributions are to be allocated among Participants’ Matching Contribution Accounts, including whether and to what extent any individual,
group, or groups of Participants shall participate in the allocation of such contribution, and (b) any age, service and other requirements the Company may specify as part of eligibility to receive the Matching Contributions. Matching
Contributions shall be credited to Participants’ Matching Contributions Account as of the time selected by the Committee. 

  

	 	(b)	Effective April 1, 2006 and for Plan Years beginning prior to January 1, 2009, the Company will credit the Matching Contributions as of December 31 (the
end of the Plan Year) and a Participant must be actively employed or on an approved leave of absence on December 31 to be eligible for the Matching Contribution credit. This requirement is waived if the Participant is not actively employed on
December 31 due to Retirement, Disability or death during the Plan Year. If a Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated due to a Separation from Service during the year and the Participant is rehired within the same calendar
year, any credited Matching Contribution under this paragraph will be based on Deferral Contributions made during the most recent period of employment only. 

 

	 	(c)	The Company shall credit a Matching Contribution to Matching Contribution Accounts on behalf of each Participant who is eligible for such credit as described in
Section 5.1(b). The amount of such Matching Contribution credit shall be calculated by multiplying Deferral Contributions, up to 4% of Deferrable Compensation (up to the limitation under Code Section 401(a)(17) for that Plan Year), by the
percentage in accordance with the following schedule based on an eligible Participant’s length of service from his or her most recent date of hire.

 BENEFIT PAYMENTS 
  

	7.1	Early Withdrawals 

 A
Participant’s Account may be distributed to the Participant before Separation from Service as follows: 
  

	 	(a)	Election for In-Service Withdrawal. An election may be made in a Participant’s Participation Election to withdraw all or any portion of the amount deferred,
including any Earnings credited thereon, by that Participation Election as of a date specified in that Participation Election. Such date shall not be sooner than January 1 of the third Plan Year following the Plan Year to which the deferral
election applies. No amounts from the Participant’s Matching Contributions Account and Discretionary Contributions Account may be withdrawn. The value of the distribution shall be the value as of the applicable Determination Date as determined
by the Committee. 

  

	 	(b)	Re-Election for In-Service Withdrawal. A Participant may change the payment date for the in-service withdrawal elected in Section 7.1(a) one time, subject
to the following: 

  

	 	(i)	The new election may be made not less than 12 months before the date the payment is scheduled to be paid and shall not take effect until at least 12 months after the
date on which the election is made; and 

  

	 	(ii)	The payment shall be deferred for a period of not less than five years from the date such payment would otherwise have been paid. 

 

	 	(c)	Unforeseeable Financial Emergency. If upon the request of a Participant the Committee finds that, based on the relevant facts and circumstances of each case, a
Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, the Committee may make a distribution from the Participant’s Deferral Contributions Account. If a Participant receives a distribution as a result of an Unforeseeable Financial
Emergency, the Participant’s deferral election under his or her Participation Election shall be cancelled for the remainder of the Plan Year in which the withdrawal is made. Additionally, if a Participant receives a hardship distribution of his
or her pre-2005 Deferral Contributions Account pursuant to the terms of the Pre-2005 Plan, the Participant shall not be allowed to defer compensation under the Plan for the immediately succeeding Plan Year. 

  

	
	 STARBUCKS CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN         19

 The distribution on account of an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency shall not exceed the
Participant’s Deferred Contributions Account balance as of the Determination Date (as determined by the Committee) or the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need (which may include amounts necessary to pay any federal, state,
local or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution), whichever is less. A distribution on account of an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency may not be made to the extent that such emergency is or may be
relieved through reimbursement or compensation from insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not cause severe financial hardship). 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Participant has received a hardship distribution from the 401(k) Plan, deferrals under
his or her MDCP Participation Election shall be cancelled through the current Plan Year or the end of the subsequent Plan Year if the six-month period under Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(k)-1(d)(3)(iv)(E)(2) does not end in the current Plan
Year. Additionally, to the extent the six-month period ends in the immediately succeeding Plan Year, the Participant shall not be allowed to defer compensation under the Plan for such Plan Year. 

 

	 	(d)	Payment. The amount payable under this Section 7.1 shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days following receipt of a proper request in the event of an
Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, or following the elected payment date in the event of an in-service withdrawal. In either case, such amount shall be charged to the Participant’s Account as a distribution. 

 

	7.2	Accelerated Distributions Under the Pre-2005 Plan 

 If a Participant receives an Accelerated Distribution (as defined in the Pre-2005 Plan) under Section 7.2 of the Pre-2005 Plan, he or she shall not be allowed to defer compensation under this Plan
for the entire Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Accelerated Distribution was made. 
  

	7.3	Separation from Service 

If a Participant’s employment is terminated with the Company due to a Separation from Service (other than death), the Company shall
pay to the Participant benefits equal to the balance in the Account on the applicable Determination Date (as determined by the Committee) subject to the forfeiture provision of Section 5.3(c). Subject to Section 7.7, benefits shall be paid
as elected in the Participant’s Participation Election relating to each Deferral Period (Sections 7.3(a) and (b)), as required in Section 7.3(c), or as elected pursuant to Section 7.3(d) below. Distribution shall commence within 60
days following the Participant’s date of Separation from Service or the elected payment date corresponding with such date, as applicable. 

  

	
	 STARBUCKS CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN         20

	 	(a)	Alternative Forms. Alternative forms of benefit payment shall be: 

  

	 	(i)	A lump-sum amount which is equal to the applicable Account balance. This is also the default in the event there is not a valid Participation Election on file as of a
Participant’s date of Separation from Service. 

  

	 	(ii)	Annual installments of the Account balance amortized over a period of two to five years (two to 10 years for Class Year Accounts prior to 2011, except for Partners who
became newly eligible under Section 3.1(c) on or after October 1, 2010). Earnings on the unpaid balance shall continue to be credited to Subaccounts at the appropriate Investment Index rate. The Account balance shall be reamortized each
year, so that the exact amount of each substantially similar installment payment will depend on the Earnings credited or debited to the Account during the prior year. 

 

	 	(b)	Alternative Payment Timing. Alternative timing of payments shall be: 

 

	 	(i)	Payment upon the Participant’s Separation from Service, or in the case of installments, payments begin upon Separation from Service; or 

 

	 	(ii)	Payment 12 months following the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service, or in the case of installments, payments begin 12 months following the date of
Separation from Service. 

  

	 	(c)	Small Amounts. Notwithstanding the form elected, if the Participant’s total Account under this Plan, any plan, agreement, program or other arrangement
required to be aggregated with this Plan under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(c)(2) and the Pre-2005 Plan is $10,000 or less on the applicable Determination Date selected by the Committee following the Participant’s Separation from
Service, the total Account balance (under this Plan and the Pre-2005 Plan) shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days following such Determination Date. Such payment shall not be made unless it results in the termination and liquidation of the
entirety of the Participant’s interest under this Plan and all such arrangements. 

  

	
	 STARBUCKS CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN         21

	 	(d)	Change in Form and Timing of Benefits. 

  

	 	(i)	A Participant may elect to change the form or timing of benefit payments due to a Separation from Service up to a maximum of two times per Class Year Account. Any such
election changes will not be valid and shall have no effect to the extent they were made within 12 months prior to the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service. In addition, the payment with respect to which any such election change is
made shall be deferred for a period of not less than five years after the date such payment would otherwise have been paid (or in the case of installment payments treated as a single payment, five years after the date the first amount would
otherwise have been paid). This Section 7.3(d) does not apply to any payments on account of death or due to an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency. 

  

	 	(ii)	On or before December 31, 2008, in accordance with and subject to such payment options as set forth in this Section 7.3(d), such rules as set by the Company,
and the limitations set forth under Code Section 409A, a Participant may elect to change the form or timing of benefit payments due as a result of a Separation from Service with respect to deferrals made in Plan Years 2005 through 2008,
respectively, without regard to any requirements to the contrary in this Section 7.3(d). Any such change shall become irrevocable on December 31, 2008. 

 

	7.4	Withholding; Payroll Taxes 

The Company shall withhold from payments hereunder any taxes required to be withheld from such payments under federal, state or local law.
A Beneficiary, however, may elect not to have withholding of federal income tax pursuant to Code Section 3405, or any successor provision thereto. 
  

	7.5	Payments Subject to Code Section 162(m) 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if the Company reasonably anticipates that any portion of a payment in a calendar year would be disallowed as a deduction to the Company due to Code
Section 162(m), such payment may be delayed in accordance with Section 409A. It shall instead be paid in the first following calendar year during which the Company reasonably anticipates that if the payment is made during such year, the
deduction of such payment will not be barred by application of Code Section 162(m). All delayed payments will be paid by January 30 of such year. In addition, where any scheduled payment to a specific Participant in the Company’s
taxable year is delayed in accordance with this Section 7.5, the delay in payment will be treated as a subsequent deferral election (governed by Section 7.3(d) above) unless all scheduled payments to that Participant that could be delayed
in accordance with this Section 7.5 are also delayed.

	7.6	Payment to Guardian 

 If a
distribution is payable to a minor or a person declared incompetent or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of property, the Committee may direct payment to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of
such minor, incompetent or person. The Committee may require proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity or guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution. 

 

	7.7	Payments to Specified Employees 

 In the case of a Participant who is a Specified Employee as of his or her date of Separation from Service, all payments under Section 7.3 to which he or she is otherwise entitled during the first six
months following such date shall be delayed until and paid on the first day of the seventh month following such date (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Specified Employee). The Participant’s Subaccounts shall continue to receive credits
for deemed investments under Article 6 until such delayed distribution date. 
  

	7.8	Payments upon Death 

 Upon
the death of a Participant, any portion of such Participant’s Account that has not yet been distributed shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary in a lump sum regardless of the form of benefit elected in the Participant’s
Participation Election. Such lump sum shall be paid within 90 days of the Participant’s death. 
  

	7.9	Permissible Acceleration of Payments Under Treasury Regulations 

 In general, no distribution under the Plan may be paid earlier than specified by the terms of the Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee shall have the discretion to
accelerate distributions under the Plan to the extent permitted under and in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4).

 Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to designate one or
more persons or an entities as Beneficiary (both primary as well as secondary) to whom benefits under the Plan shall be paid in the event of a Participant’s death prior to complete distribution of the Participant’s Account. Except to the
extent contrary to the requirements of Code Section 409A, each Beneficiary designation shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.6 of the 401(k) Plan, as it may be amended from time to time; and in the event that no

Participants’ Participation Elections, unless the Board directs that distributions occur sooner in accordance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix).

 ARTICLE 11 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	11.1	Unfunded Plan 

 The Plan
is an unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for a select group of “management or highly compensated employees” within the meaning of Sections 201, 301 and 401 of ERISA, and therefore is exempt from
the provisions of Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA. Accordingly, the Board may terminate the Plan and make no further benefit payments or remove certain employees as Participants if it is determined by the United States Department of Labor, a
court of competent jurisdiction or an opinion of counsel that the Plan constitutes an employee pension benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA (as currently in effect or hereafter amended) which is not so exempt. 

 

	11.2	Unsecured General Creditor 

Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns (including any alternate payees under qualified domestic relations
orders (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(1)(B))) shall have no secured legal or equitable rights, interest or claims in any property or assets of the Company, nor shall they be beneficiaries of, or have any rights, claims or interests in, any
property or asset which may be acquired by the Company. Except as provided in Section 11.3, assets of the Company shall not be held under any trust for the benefit of Participants or their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors or assigns (including
any alternate payees), or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under the Plan. Any and all of the Company’s assets and policies shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted
assets of the Company. The Company’s obligation under the Plan shall be that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future. 
  

	11.3	Trust Fund 

 At its sole
discretion, the Company may establish one or more trusts, with such trustees as the Board may approve, for the purpose of providing for the payment of benefits owed under the Plan. Although such a trust may be irrevocable, its assets shall be held
for payment of all the Company’s general creditors in the event of insolvency. To the extent any benefits provided under the Plan are paid from any such trust, the Company shall have no further obligation to pay them. If not paid from any
trust, such benefits shall remain the obligation of the Company. Notwithstanding the existence of such a trust, it is intended that the Plan be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA.

 Neither
a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or
any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and nontransferable. Except as the Committee determines is otherwise required by law or order of a court of competent jurisdiction, including a domestic
relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(1)(B)), no part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a

	11.5	Not a Contract of Employment

 The
provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Washington, except as preempted by federal law. 
  

	11.7	Validity 

 In case any
provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal and invalid provision had never been
inserted herein. 
  

	11.8	Successors 

 The
provisions of the Plan shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Company, its Affiliates, and their successors and assigns. The term “successors” as used herein shall include any corporation or other business entity, which shall, whether

MANAGEMENT DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN         33Amendment to Second and Restated Employment Agreement, David M. Goldenberg

 Exhibit 10.1 

 

 

 December 22, 2010 
 Dr. David M. Goldenberg 
 Imunomedics, Inc. 

300 American Road 
 Morris Plains, NJ 07950

 Dear Dr. Goldenberg: 
 We
would like to clarify certain terms of the Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2008 (the “Agreement”), between you and Immunomedics, Inc. (the “Company”), to reflect the
parties’ original intent to comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), as follows. Capitalized terms used in this letter agreement that are not defined herein
shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement. 
 1. Timing of Severance Pay After Execution of a Release.
Section 13(g) of the Agreement provides that as a condition to receiving any Severance Payments under Section 13 (other than Guaranteed Payments, which are not subject to this condition), the Company may require you to execute a written
release of any and all claims against the Company and all related parties with respect to all matters arising out of your employment by the Company, or the termination thereof (the “Release”) in a form provided by the Company but
acceptable to you. Section 13(g) further provides that the Company will not start making any Severance Payments under Section 13 (other than Guaranteed Payments) unless you sign the Release and do not revoke your consent to the Release
within seven days after submitting it to the Company. In order to effectuate these provisions of Section 13(g), the Company hereby agrees that it will provide you with the form of release agreement on or within seven days after your separation
from service and, to be entitled to any Severance Payments under Section 13 (other than Guaranteed Payments, which are not subject to this condition), you must execute, and not revoke, it during the minimum time period permitted by applicable
law. 
 Subject to your execution and non-revocation of the Release, the Severance Payments (other than Guaranteed Payments)
shall be paid or commence being paid, as specified in the Agreement, within 60 days after your separation from service but not earlier than the date on which the Release becomes effective and not in contravention of any delay required by
Section 13(f). If, however, the period during which you have discretion to execute and/or revoke the Release straddles two calendar years, the Severance Payments (other than Guaranteed Payments) shall not be paid or commence being paid, as
applicable, before the beginning of the second of the two calendar years, regardless of within which calendar year you actually deliver the executed Release to the Company. Consistent with Section 409A, you may not, directly or indirectly,
designate the calendar year of payment. Nothing in this letter agreement shall be construed to alter the terms of the Agreement that condition your entitlement to any Severance

Payments upon your compliance with the restrictive covenants and any other terms and conditions specified in the Agreement. 

2. No Other Changes. You agree that the terms and conditions of the Agreement, to the extent not modified hereby, will continue to
apply as specified in the Agreement. 
 [Signatures follow.] 
 To indicate your acceptance of these updated terms and conditions of your employment, please sign and return one copy of this letter to me by no later than December 31, 2010.
