Employment and Relocation Agreements with Anurag Gupta On January 4, 2010, the Registrant entered into an employment agreement (the "Gupta Employment Agreement") and a relocation agreement (the "Gupta Relocation Agreement") with Anurag Gupta ("Gupta"), the Registrant's President, Europe, Middle East and Africa. Both agreements have an effective date of January 1, 2010. Mr. Gupta's annual salary under the Gupta Employment Agreement is US$375,000 per annum and his cash bonus potential is US$187,500 (50% of his base salary). The Gupta Employment Agreement also provides a one-time signing bonus of US$150,000.

Mr. Gupta is entitled to an automobile allowance in the amount of €2,300 per month. The Gupta Employment Agreement has an initial two year term, and, following the initial term, is renewable automatically for successive one year periods unless, more than 30 days prior to the expiration of the initial term or any renewal term, either Mr. Gupta or the Registrant give the other party written notice of non-renewal. If Mr. Gupta gives notice of non-renewal, his employment shall terminate on the expiration of the initial term or the renewal term in which notice was given, whichever is applicable. If the Registrant gives notice of non-renewal or terminates the Gupta Employment Agreement without Cause (as defined in the Gupta Employment Agreement), the term of Mr. Gupta's employment shall be for a final one year period commencing on the effective date of the notice of non-renewal, unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 6 of the Gupta Employment Agreement. Mr. Gupta can terminate his employment upon six months written notice. If the Registrant terminates Mr. Gupta's employment for Cause or as a result of Mr. Gupta's death or disability, then Mr. Gupta is entitled to receive his base salary through the date of his termination, death or disability, as applicable. If the Registrant terminates Mr. Gupta other than for Cause, death or disability, then Mr. Gupta is entitled to reasonable relocation costs to repatriate Mr. Gupta and his family to the

United States, as well as Mr. Gupta's salary through the date of such termination. Additionally, the Registrant shall give Mr. Gupta the opportunity to execute a Separation Agreement and Release of Claims which shall include provisions for (i) a separation payment and (ii) the immediate vesting of all options and/or restricted stock units granted to Mr. Gupta. The separation payment shall be the lesser of (i) an amount equal to the cash compensation defined as base salary and bonus opportunity that would be paid to Mr. Gupta during the remaining term of the Gupta Employment Agreement (such amount shall not be less than one year's base salary) or (ii) US$1,000,000. The Gupta Employment Agreement also contains non-competition and confidentiality provisions.
The Gupta Relocation Agreement was approved as an incentive for Mr. Gupta to move from the United States to Europe and to help him defray certain costs associated with his and his family's relocation. The Gupta Relocation Agreement has a term of the lesser of (i) the amount of time Mr. Gupta remains employed by the Registrant and resides in Europe or an agreed location in the territory and
