 Exhibit 10.1 
 GENERAL RELEASE & SEPARATION AGREEMENT 
 This General Release and
Separation Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of October 30, 2012 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Andrew Keenan (“you”) and Carbonite, Inc. a Delaware corporation,
together with its subsidiaries and affiliates (the “Company”). 
 WHEREAS, you serve as Chief Financial Officer
of the Company and have indicated your desire to voluntarily resign from employment by the Company; 
 WHEREAS, the Company
desires to retain your services through the Resignation Date (as defined below); and 
 WHEREAS, the Company and you desire to
set forth the terms of the resignation, transition and continued employment through the Resignation Date. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for
good and valuation consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	1.	 Upon the earlier to occur of (i) January 31, 2013 or (ii) such date on which you accept employment with a new employer (the
“Resignation Date”), your employment with the Company will cease. If the Resignation Date occurs prior to November 1, 2012, you shall be entitled to a severance payment in an amount equal to six (6) times your monthly base
salary as of the Effective Date (the “Primary Severance Amount”). If the Resignation Date occurs after November 1, 2012 but before January 31, 2013, in addition to the Primary Severance Amount, you shall be entitled to a
severance payment in an amount equal to one and one-half (1  1/2) times your monthly base salary as of the Effective Date (the “First Additional Severance Amount”). If
the Resignation Date occurs on January 31, 2012, in addition to the Primary Severance Amount and the First Additional Severance Amount, you shall be entitled to a severance payment in an amount equal to one and one-half (1  1/2) times your monthly base salary as of the Effective Date (the “Second Additional Severance Amount”). The payments contemplated by this Section 1 shall be paid in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3. 

  

	2.	 From the Effective Date through the Resignation Date, (A) you shall receive continued payment of your base salary as of the Effective Date,
(B) you shall be eligible to participate in any Company-sponsored employee benefit plans in which you participate as of the Effective Date on substantially the same terms and conditions as those existing on the Effective Date, including your
obligation to pay the employee’s premium amount, (C) you shall be eligible for participation in any Company management bonus plan in which you participated for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, with any bonus payments due to you
thereunder being prorated to reflect the term of your service to the Company prior to the Resignation Date relative to the term of any such plan, and (D) any outstanding stock option grants to you shall continue to vest. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Company shall not terminate your employment before the Resignation Date; provided that the Company may, in its discretion, remove responsibilities from you if it appoints a new Chief Financial Officer before the Resignation Date.
All employee benefits offered to you by the Company, including health insurance benefits, shall cease as of the Resignation Date. As of the Resignation Date, you may elect to continue your participation in the Company’s health insurance
benefits at your expense pursuant to COBRA by notifying the Company in the time specified in the attached COBRA notice and by paying the monthly premium therefor. By execution of this Agreement, you hereby resign from your employment and all
offices, directorships, and other positions you hold 

	 	
with the Company, its subsidiaries, or affiliated entities effective as of the close of business on the Resignation Date; provided that if the Company appoints a new Chief Financial
Officer before the Resignation Date, your resignation from the position of Chief Financial Officer shall take effect immediately upon such appointment without affecting the date established as the Resignation Date pursuant to the first sentence of
this paragraph. Any such appointment of a new Chief Financial Officer before the Resignation Date shall not affect the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation the obligations under subsections (A) through
(E) above. 

  

	3.	 No later than 10 days following the Resignation Date (and in all events prior to March 15, 2013) (the “Payment Date”), you shall
receive a lump-sum payment in an amount equal to Primary Severance Amount. If you are entitled to receive the First Additional Severance Amount and/or the Second Additional Severance Amount pursuant to the provisions of Section 1, any such
amount shall be paid to you in a lump-sum on the Payment Date. The period beginning on the Resignation Date and ending on the date that is the six (6) month anniversary of the Resignation Date, if you are only eligible to receive the Primary
Severance Amount, the date that is the seven and one-half (7  1/2) month anniversary of the Resignation Date, if you are eligible to receive the First Additional Severance Amount and the
date that is the nine (9) month anniversary Resignation Date, if you are eligible to receive the Second Additional Severance Amount, as applicable, shall be referred to herein as the “Severance Period.”

  

	4.	If you elect continuation coverage under COBRA, during the Severance Period until such time as you accept employment with a new employer, on the first day of each
calendar month, you shall receive a payment in an amount equal to the monthly amount that the Company paid for your participation in the Company’s health insurance plan during the month immediately preceding the Effective Date, prorated, as
applicable, for any portion of any calendar month included within the Severance Period prior to your acceptance of employment with a new employer. In addition, if you are entitled to receive the First Additional Severance Amount, and/or the Second
Additional Severance Amount pursuant to the provisions of Section 1, immediately prior to the Resignation Date, the Company shall accelerate the vesting of all outstanding stock option grants to you such that all of your outstanding stock
options will be vested and exercisable for such number of shares of the Company’s common stock as to which such stock options would have been exercisable had your employment with the Company continued through the applicable Severance Period.
You shall not be entitled to any other amounts from the Company. If, during the Severance Period, you accept employment with a new employer, you shall promptly notify the Company. 

 

	5.	Notwithstanding anything in the agreements governing your stock option grants to the contrary, you shall be eligible to exercise such stock options to purchase shares
of the Company’s common stock, to the extent that such options are vested and exercisable, through the second anniversary of the Resignation Date; provided, however, that the extension of the exercise period for such options shall result in
treatment of such options as non-statutory stock options rather than incentive stock options. 

  

	6.	 In consideration of the foregoing payments and other provisions, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged by you and to which you acknowledge that you would not otherwise be entitled, you, on behalf of yourself, your heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, hereby knowingly and voluntarily release, covenant not to
sue, and forever discharge the Company, and its officers, agents, affiliates, directors, stockholders, and employees (“Released Parties”) of and from any and all claims, demands, actions,

  
 2 

	 	
causes of action and liabilities, of every name and nature, both in law and equity, whether known or unknown, which you may have, now or in the future, or have ever had from the beginning of the
world to this date, (“Claims”) including but not limited to any and all Claims arising out of, based on or connected with your employment by the Company and the termination of that employment, including without limitation Claims
arising under or based on the National Labor Relations Act of 1947; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967; The Older Workers’ Benefits Protection Act of 1990; Section 1981 of the Civil
Rights Act of 1866; Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 151B; the Equal Pay Act of 1963; Section 1985 of the Civil Rights Act of 1871; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; each of the foregoing as amended; and any other federal or state
law, statute, public policy, or regulation, or common law, affecting or relating to the Claims or rights of employees including any statutory or common law right to legal fees. It is expressly understood and agreed that this release is a general
release and includes the release of all Claims except for Claims based on any breach of this Agreement by the Company. It is further understood and agreed that this Agreement does not constitute any admission that any action taken with respect to
you was unlawful or wrongful, or that such action constituted a breach of contract or violated any federal or state law, policy, rule or regulation. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit you from doing any of the following:
(i) bringing an action to challenge the knowing and voluntary nature of your entering into this Agreement, (ii) pursuing a claim for unemployment compensation benefits to which you may be entitled, or (iii) filing charges or
cooperating with any investigation by any governmental agency including the EEOC, the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination or any similar anti-discrimination agency; provided, however, that you waive your right to any financial recovery
associated with such agency charges. 

  

	7.	All of the following obligations between you and the Company shall remain in effect in accordance with their respective terms (except as amended below), notwithstanding
the foregoing releases of Claims: the April 27, 2007 Non-Competition Agreement between you and the Company (the “Non-Competition Agreement”), the April 27, 2007 Confidentiality Agreement between you and the Company (the
“Confidentiality Agreement”), the May 11, 2011 Indemnification Agreement between you and the Company (the “Indemnification Agreement”) and all rights of indemnification or insurance that you may have based on
any source referenced in Section 9 of the Indemnification Agreement (together with the Non-Competition Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement, the “Preserved Agreements”). You and the Company
hereby affirm your continuing obligations under the terms of the Preserved Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge that the Company may publicly disclose the terms and provisions of this Agreement in order to comply with its
obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Unless and until the terms and provisions of this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company, you may only disclose such information to your spouse, attorney, or financial
advisors or as may be required by law or legal process. After such time as the terms and provisions of this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company, you shall not be subject to any disclosure restrictions with regard to this Agreement. You
may also make disclosure of the terms of Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement to any prospective employer at any time. 

  

	8.	From the Effective Date and for a period of two years after the end of the Severance Period (the “Non-Solicitation Period”), you agree that you shall
not, either directly or indirectly, without the Company’s written consent: 

  
 3 

 (i) hire any employee or consultant of the Company or recruit, solicit or
knowingly induce, or attempt to induce, any employee or consultant of the Company to terminate his employment or consulting relationship with, or otherwise cease his relationship with, the Company; or 

(ii) solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to divert or to take away, the business or patronage of any of the clients,
customers or accounts, or prospective clients, customers or accounts, of the Company where a prospective client, customer or account is any individual or entity whose business was solicited by the Company after May 1, 2012, proposed to be
solicited by the Company after May 1, 2012, or who approached the Company after May 1, 2012 with respect to possibly becoming a client, customer, or account of the Company. 

 

	9.	From the Effective Date and for a period of one year after the end of the Severance Period, you agree that you shall not, either directly or indirectly, without the
Company’s prior written consent, engage (whether for compensation or without compensation) as a proprietor, partner, stockholder, officer, employee, director, joint venturer, investor, lender, or in any other capacity whatsoever (other than as
the holder of not more than 1% of the total outstanding stock of a publicly­held company), in any business activity which competes with any business then being conducted by the Company or any business proposed to be conducted by the Company as
of the end of the Severance Period. 

  

	10.	During the Non-Solicitation Period, you agree not to make any negative or disparaging comments about the Company or any of the other Released Parties, whether orally or
in writing. During the Non-Solicitation Period, the Company agrees not to make any negative or disparaging comments about you, whether orally or in writing. These restrictions shall not apply to statements made under oath in testimony in any legal
proceeding. 

  

	11.	If any restriction set forth in Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement 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, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic areas to which it may be enforceable. You acknowledge
and agree that the restrictions contained in Sections 8 and 9 are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by you to be reasonable for this purpose. You agree that any breach of Sections 8 and 9
will cause the Company substantial and irrevocable damage and, therefore, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, in addition to such other remedies which may be available, the Company will have the right to seek specific performance
and injunctive relief 

  

	12.	On or prior to the Resignation Date, you will return all documents, tapes, notes, digital records, passwords and other information or materials (and all copies) in your
possession that are the property of the Company or that contain confidential information of the Company, whether relating to the Company or any of its customers or other organizations. You will also return your laptop computer, building pass card,
office/file cabinet keys, and any other Company equipment/property in your possession. You agree to submit a final expense report, if any, to the Company within two weeks after the Resignation Date. You acknowledge that the Company is not required
to make any payments or take any actions pursuant to this Agreement until you have returned all Company property in accordance with this Section 12. 

  
 4 

	13.	This Agreement is intended as a final, complete and exclusive expression of the parties’ agreement. This Agreement shall supersede all prior understandings, oral
and written, between the parties concerning your employment, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. This Agreement shall be executed simultaneously in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original. This Agreement may not be
changed or modified except by an agreement in writing. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is held invalid, the invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Agreement which can be given effect
without the invalid provisions or applications and for this purpose the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable. You agree that while you have been employed by the Company, you have been properly compensated for all of the time you
worked. You further state and represent that you have carefully read this Agreement, understand its contents and effect, and agree to all of its terms freely and voluntarily. This Agreement shall have the effect of an instrument executed under seal
and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall be for the benefit of your heirs, executors, administrators or other legal representatives and the successors and assigns of the Company and its affiliates. This Agreement shall be governed
in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 

  

	14.	The parties agree that provisions regarding all payments to be made hereunder shall be interpreted in such a manner that all such payments are exempt from the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code and accordingly, the Company acknowledges and agrees that it shall not report any such payments using IRS Code Z on any applicable Form W-2. 

 

	15.	 You have up to twenty-one (21) days after receipt of this Agreement within which to review it and to discuss it with an attorney of your own
choosing. If you choose to sign this Agreement prior to the 21st day following receipt, you do so on a purely voluntary basis and of your own free will. The parties agree that any changes to this Agreement, material or immaterial, will not restart
the running of the twenty-one (21) day period. You are advised to consult an attorney before signing this Agreement. Furthermore, you have seven (7) days after you have signed this Agreement during which time you may revoke this Agreement.
If you wish to revoke this Agreement, you may do so by delivering a letter of revocation to the Company. To be effective, your revocation must be postmarked and or received no later than the
7th day following your execution of this Agreement.
Because of this revocation period, you understand that this Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the
8th day after the date on which you sign this Agreement
and that the Company will not make any payment to you until such time.

 Exhibit 10(b) 
 EXECUTION COPY 
 SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS

 Jeffrey S. Shuman 
 The intent of this Separation Agreement and Release of All Claims (“Agreement”) is to mutually and finally resolve all matters relating to your employment with and involuntary separation from
Harris Corporation (“Harris”). All disputes between you and Harris have been settled and you have agreed to enter into a full and binding settlement releasing Harris from any and all liability. 

 

	1.	Separation Date. Your employment with Harris will end at close of business on August 31, 2012 (your “Separation Date”). Your last day
providing services as Senior Vice President, Chief Human Resources and Administrative Officer will be July 23, 2012. From that date until your Separation Date (your “Transition Period”), you agree to remain available to facilitate an
orderly transition of your responsibilities, including to answer questions, provide information, attend meetings and perform such other services as reasonably requested. Your employment records will reflect that you are eligible for rehire at
Harris. 

  

	2.	Transition Period Pay. For services performed during the Transition Period, Harris will continue to pay you your annual base salary at the rate currently
in effect (your “Transition Pay”). Your Transition Pay will be paid to you in a lump sum on January 28, 2013 (or if earlier, within ninety (90) days following your death). 

 

	3.	Separation Pay. Pursuant to the December 12, 2008 Addendum to your Offer Letter from Harris dated July 5, 2005 (such offer letter and addendum
collectively, the “Offer Letter”), as a result of your involuntary separation from Harris you are entitled to a lump sum amount equal to $477,793 (i.e., the aggregate of your current base salary of $425,000 and your pro-rata Fiscal
Year 2012 Annual Incentive Plan target of $52,793) (the “Separation Pay”). But for the application of the six-month delay under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) due to your status as a Specified
Employee (the “Specified Employee Requirement”), your Separation Pay would have been paid to you within sixty (60) days following your separation from service. Due to the Specified Employee Requirement, no separation pay may be paid
to you during the period beginning on the date of your separation from service and ending on the date that is six months following the date of your separation from service (or if earlier, on the date of your death). Accordingly, your Separation Pay
will be paid to you in a lump sum on January 28, 2013 (or if earlier, within ninety (90) days following your death). You acknowledge and agree that the payment described in this Section 3 is conditional on your timely executing and
delivering this Agreement to Harris and not revoking the Release of All Claims set forth herein. 

  

	4.	Benefits Coverage. Effective as of the Separation Date, you will cease to be eligible for the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements maintained
by Harris in accordance with the applicable terms thereof. You will be offered the opportunity to elect continued coverage for yourself and your qualifying dependents under the Harris Medical, Dental, Vision Care, and Health Care Spending Account
Plans in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”). 

  

	5.	Vacation Pay. As soon as practicable but no later than thirty (30) days following the Separation Date, Harris will pay you in a lump sum for any
unused accrued vacation time as of your Separation Date. 

  

					
		  	Page 1 of 8	  	

	6.	Retirement Plan Participation. Benefit accruals and contributions under the Retirement Plan and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, including matching
contributions, will end as of your Separation Date; provided, however, that your deferral elections with respect to (i) the lump sum payment to you pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement with respect to unused accrued vacation and
(ii) the compensation, if any, payable to you pursuant to the Fiscal Year 2012 Performance Reward Plan or Fiscal Year 2012 Annual Incentive Plan shall remain in full force and effect. 

 

	7.	Performance Reward Plan (PRP). The timing and amount of payment owed to you under the Fiscal Year 2012 PRP will be governed by the terms and conditions of
that plan. Payment, if any, will be based on your Fiscal Year 2012 eligible earnings and will be made in September 2012. The separation pay you receive pursuant to this Agreement is not considered eligible earnings for purposes of PRP.

 Harris will pay you the lump sum amount you are entitled to receive as a Fiscal Year 2013 PRP payment pursuant
to the terms of the PRP. The timing and amount of payment owed to you under the Fiscal 2013 PRP will be governed by that plan. It is currently estimated that such amount will be $1,593. 

 

	8.	Annual Incentive Plan (AIP). The timing and amount of payment owed to you under the Fiscal Year 2012 AIP will be governed by the terms and conditions of
the AIP. Payment, if any, will be made in September 2012. Payment will be based on the company’s financial results and its assessment of your individual performance against established goals. 

Harris will pay you the lump sum amount you are entitled to receive as a Fiscal Year 2013 AIP payment pursuant to the terms of the AIP and
this Agreement. The timing and amount of payment owed to you under the Fiscal Year 2013 AIP will be governed by the terms and conditions of the AIP using your Fiscal Year 2012 target as the Fiscal 2013 target. 

 

	9.	Stock Options. The vesting (if any) and exercisability of the stock options you hold as of the Separation Date will be governed by the terms of the
applicable Harris Equity Incentive Plan(s) and terms and conditions thereunder in effect at the time of the grant. 

  

	10.	Performance Share/Unit Awards. Each outstanding performance share/unit award which you hold as of the Separation Date will, notwithstanding your
separation and the terms and conditions initially applicable to such award, remain outstanding and eligible to vest, as if you had remained employed by Harris. Final payout of such performance share/unit awards shall remain subject to adjustment for
company financial performance, as of the end of the performance period. Except as modified by the provisions of this Section 10, such awards will continue to be governed by the applicable Harris Equity Incentive Plan(s) and terms and conditions
thereunder in effect at the time of the grant. Dividends will be paid in cash on the performance-adjusted payouts. To the extent payable, such awards will be settled in shares in September following the end of the applicable performance period.

  

	11.	Restricted Unit Awards. Each restricted unit award which you hold as of the Separation Date will, notwithstanding your separation and the terms and
conditions initially applicable to such award, remain outstanding and eligible to vest, as if you had remained employed by Harris, as of the completion of the applicable restricted period. Except as modified by the provisions of this
Section 11, such awards will continue to be governed by the applicable Harris Equity Incentive Plan(s) and terms and conditions thereunder in effect at the time of the grant. Such awards will be settled in shares following the end of the
applicable restricted period. 

  

					
		  	Page 2 of 8	  	

	12.	Post-Employment Transition Services. During the period from the Separation Date through January 31, 2013, you agree to make yourself available to
facilitate an orderly transition of your responsibilities, including to answer questions, provide information, attend meetings and perform such other services as reasonably requested. Such services will be performed on mutually agreed upon dates and
shall not unreasonably interfere with your other business or personal activities. As consideration for such services, you will receive a lump sum amount equal to $130,000, payable on February 1, 2013 (or if earlier, within ninety (90) days
following your death). 

 You acknowledge and agree that you will provide such services as an independent
contractor of Harris and that following the Separation Date you will not be considered for any purpose to be an employee or agent of Harris or have the authority to speak on behalf of or bind Harris. You further acknowledge and agree that following
the Separation Date you will not be eligible for any employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements maintained by Harris, and you expressly disclaim any right to participate in such plans, programs or arrangements. 

 

	13.	No Further Benefits. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein or pursuant to applicable employee compensation or benefit arrangements, you will not be
entitled to any pay, compensation, severance, insurance, or employment benefits from Harris after your Separation Date. You acknowledge and agree that the payments and benefits specified under this Agreement satisfy in their entirety any and all
obligations of Harris to you under your Offer Letter, the Harris Corporation Severance Pay Plan, any other severance program, policy or arrangement maintained by Harris or otherwise. 

 

	14.	Executive Change in Control Severance and Indemnification Agreements; Resignation from Office. You acknowledge that effective as of the Separation Date,
based on this Agreement and the consideration you receive pursuant hereto, and notwithstanding any provision therein to the contrary, the Amended and Restated Executive Change in Control Severance Agreement between you and Harris dated
December 17, 2008 (the “Severance Agreement”) and the Indemnification Agreement between you and Harris dated October 28, 2005 (the “Indemnification Agreement”) are terminated in their entirety by mutual agreement and no
longer have any force or effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, obligations of Harris under the Indemnification Agreement with respect to your activity prior to the Separation Date shall continue in accordance with Section 15 of the
Indemnification Agreement. You agree that no later than the Separation Date you will resign from any offices, directorships, committee memberships or other positions you hold with Harris or any of its affiliates. You agree to execute any documents
provided by Harris to effectuate your resignation from such offices, directorships, committee memberships or other positions. 

  

	15.	Releasees. For purposes of this Agreement, “Releasees” include Harris and its affiliated companies and their officers, directors, shareholders,
employees, agents, representatives, plans, trusts, administrators, fiduciaries, insurance companies, successors, and assigns. 

  

	16.	Release of All Claims. You, on behalf of yourself and your personal and legal representatives, heirs, executors, successors and assigns, hereby
acknowledge full and complete satisfaction of, and fully and forever waive, release, and discharge Releasees from, any and all claims, causes of action, demands, liabilities, damages, obligations, and debts (collectively referenced as
“Claims”), of every kind and nature, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that you hold as of the date you sign this Agreement, or at any time previously held, against any Releasee, arising out of any matter whatsoever

	22.	Non-Disparagement. You agree that you will not criticize, disparage, defame, or otherwise attempt to impugn the character, integrity or reputation of
Releasees or the products or services of Harris and its affiliates (verbally, in writing or otherwise), nor will you unlawfully interfere with any of the business relationships of Harris and its affiliates. 

 

	23.	Breach of Agreement. If you file or permit to be filed any civil action, lawsuit, or administrative proceeding against any
Releasee seeking personal legal or equitable relief in connection with any matter relating to your employment with or separation from Harris, breach the restrictive covenants applicable to you under this Agreement or otherwise breach a provision of
this Agreement, in addition to any other rights, remedies, or defenses Harris or the other Releasees may have, Harris may: (1) immediately terminate this Agreement, if still in effect, without further obligation or liability to you of any kind;
(2) recover from you the aggregate dollar value of all pay, insurance, and other benefits provided to you following the Separation Date; and (3) recover from you all damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees
and costs, incurred by Harris or the other Releasee(s) in defending such civil action, lawsuit or administrative proceeding or in connection with such breach. You further agree that any breach or threatened breach by you, intentional or otherwise,
of the non-solicitation or other provisions of this Agreement will entitle Harris, in addition to other available remedies, to a temporary or permanent injunction or any other appropriate degree of specific performance (without bond or security
being required) in order to enjoin such breach or threatened breach.

	25.	Acknowledgement of ADEA Rights. You acknowledge as follows: 

  

	 	a.	You are advised to consult with an attorney or other representative of your choice prior to signing this Agreement; 

 

	 	b.	By executing this Agreement, you waive all rights or claims, if any, that you have or may have against any Releasee under the ADEA, as amended by the OWBPA, and under
any state or local laws prohibiting age discrimination; 

  

	 	c.	You are waiving rights and claims that you may have under the ADEA in exchange for consideration that is additional to anything of value to which you are already
entitled; 

  

	 	d.	You are not waiving rights and claims that you may have under the ADEA that may arise after the date this Agreement is signed; 

 

	 	e.	You fully understand this Agreement and are signing it voluntarily and of your own free will; 

 

	 	f.	You received this Agreement on or prior to your Separation Date, and you have up to 21 calendar days from that date to consider whether to sign it;

  

	 	g.	If you wish to sign this Agreement prior to the expiration of the 21-day period explained above, you may do so; 

 

	 	h.	You have 7 calendar days following the date you sign this Agreement to revoke your release of claims under the ADEA, and your release of such claims will not

	 	i.	To revoke your release of claims under the ADEA, you must deliver to Harris (via both U.S. mail and facsimile), within the 7-day revocation period, a signed
written statement that you revoke your release of claims under the ADEA. The revocation must be postmarked within the period stated above and addressed to:

 If you revoke your release of claims under the ADEA, you understand that you will not be entitled to receive the separation pay and other benefits described herein. 

 

	26.	 Section 409A. This Agreement will be interpreted and construed in a manner that avoids the imposition of taxes and other penalties
under Section 409A (“409A Penalties”). In the event that the terms of this Agreement provide deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A and do not comply with such section and regulations promulgated thereunder, the
parties will cooperate diligently to amend the terms of this Agreement to 

  

					
		  	Page 6 of 8	  	

	 	
avoid 409A Penalties, to the extent possible. In addition, in the event that the terms of this Agreement provide deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A, each payment of
separation pay or other amount, or provision of benefits, pursuant to this Agreement will constitute a “separately identified” amount within the meaning of Treasury Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
particular tax result with respect to any income recognized in connection with this Agreement is guaranteed, and under no circumstances will Harris be responsible for any taxes, penalties, interest or other losses or expenses incurred by you due to
any failure to comply with Section 409A. 

  

	27.	Entire Understanding. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Harris with respect to the subjects addressed herein. However, this
Agreement is not intended to supersede the provisions of your Harris Employee Agreement dated August 15, 2005, a copy of which has been provided to you, or any other obligations you may have regarding confidentiality, non-disclosure,
intellectual property, ownership of inventions, non-competition and/or non-solicitation pursuant to any agreement with Harris. 

  

	28.	Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Harris may withhold from amounts payable under this Agreement all amounts that are
required or authorized to be withheld, including, but not limited to, federal, state, local and foreign taxes to be withheld by applicable laws or regulations. 

 

	29.	Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding in all respects upon, and will inure to the benefit of, the parties’ representatives, heirs,
executors, successors, and assigns. 

  

	30.	Governing Law. The validity and interpretation of this Agreement will be governed by Florida law without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.
The parties stipulate that jurisdiction and venue will lie exclusively in Brevard County, Florida or the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida for any action involving the validity, interpretation and enforcement of this
Agreement, for any claim for breach of this Agreement, and for damages or any other relief sought under this Agreement. 

  

	31.	Severability. If any of the provisions herein are determined to be invalid by a court, arbitrator, or government agency of competent jurisdiction, it is
agreed that such determination will not affect the enforceability of the other provisions herein. 

  

	32.	Preparation of Agreement. This Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms and not strictly for or against any of the
parties hereto. Regardless of which party initially drafted this Agreement, it will not be construed against any one party, and will be construed and enforced as a mutually-prepared document. 

 

	33.	Burden of Proof. Any party contesting the validity or enforceability of any term of this Agreement will be required to prove by clear and convincing
evidence fraud, concealment, failure to disclose material information, unconscionability, misrepresentation, or mistake of fact or law. 

  

	34.	Counterparts and Telecopies. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts or by copies transmitted electronically, all of which have the same force and
effect as the original. 

 PLEASE READ AND CAREFULLY CONSIDER THIS AGREEMENT BEFORE SIGNING IT. THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A RELEASE
OF ALL KNOWN AND UNKNOWN CLAIMS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE MADE UNDER FEDERAL, STATE, AND/OR LOCAL LAWS PROHIBITING DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
