SEVERANCE AND CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT
This Severance and Change in Control Agreement, including the Executive Addendum attached hereto (collectively, the “Agreement”), is entered into as of December 31, 2018 by and between Xxxx X. Xxxxxx (the “Executive”) and Cloudera, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and is effective on the earlier of (a) the 12-month anniversary of the Executive’s Start Date (as set forth in the offer letter by and between the Executive and the Company dated on or about the date hereof) or (b) a Change in Control of the Company (the “Effective Date”).
1.TERM OF AGREEMENT.
This Agreement shall terminate on the first to occur of (i) the date the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates for a reason other than a Qualifying Termination as described in Section 4(k) or (ii) the date the Company has met all of its obligations under this Agreement following a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for a reason described in Section 4(k).
2.SEVERANCE BENEFIT.
(a) Other than During a Change in Control Period.
(i) Severance Payments. If the Executive is subject to a Qualifying Termination other than during a Change in Control Period, then, subject to Section 3 below, the Company shall pay the Executive (I) the Severance Multiplier (Other than During a Change in Control Period) as specified and defined in the applicable Executive Addendum multiplied by the Executive’s base salary at the annual rate in effect when the Qualifying Termination occurred and (II) an amount equal to the product of (y) the annual bonus target to which the Executive would have been entitled (calculated as if all applicable bonus targets were achieved) for the bonus period in which the Qualifying Termination occurred (“Final Period”) and (z) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days for which the Executive was employed by the Company during the Final Period and the denominator of which is the total number of calendar days in the Final Period (the “Prorated Bonus”). To the extent the foregoing amount is payable under Section 2(b) and/or included as Accrued Compensation and Expenses and/or Accrued Benefits (as described in Section 2(e)), it will not be paid under this Section 2(a). The Executive will receive his or her severance payment pursuant this Section 2(a)(i) in a cash lump-sum which will be made on or before the sixtieth (60th) day following the Separation, provided that the following have already occurred:
(1) the Company’s receipt of the Executive’s executed General Release (as described in Section 2(d)); and
(2) the expiration of any rescission period applicable to the Executive’s executed General Release.
(ii) Health Care Benefit. If the Executive is subject to a Qualifying Termination other than during a Change in Control Period and satisfies both the conditions set forth in Section 2(a)(i)(1) and Section 2(a)(i)(2) above to receive cash severance payments, and if the Executive elects to continue his or her health insurance coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) following the termination of his or her employment, then the Company shall pay the Executive’s monthly premium under
COBRA until the earliest of (1) the COBRA Continuation Period (Other than During a Change in Control Period) as specified and defined in the Executive Addendum; (2) the date when the Executive receives similar coverage with a new employer or (3) the expiration of the Executive’s continuation coverage under COBRA.
(iii) Equity. If the Executive is subject to a Qualifying Termination other than during a Change in Control Period and satisfies both the conditions set forth in Section 2(a)(i)(1) and Section 2(a)(i)(2) above, then, subject to Section 3 below, Executive will be permitted to exercise any vested shares subject to Equity Awards (as defined below) that are nonstatutory stock options to purchase shares of Company common stock until the Post-Termination Exercise Date that is specified and defined in the Executive Addendum; provided that such post-termination exercise period shall end upon the consummation of a Change in Control, unless such nonstatutory stock options are assumed in the Change in Control; provided, further, that in no event shall such post-termination exercise period exceed the expiration of the maximum term of the nonstatutory stock options.
(b) During a Change in Control Period.
(i) Severance Payments. If the Executive is subject to a Qualifying Termination during a Change in Control Period, then, subject to Section 3 below, the Company shall pay the Executive (I) the Severance Multiplier (During a Change in Control Period) as specified and defined in the applicable Executive Addendum multiplied by the sum of (w) the Executive’s base salary at the annual rate in effect when the Qualifying Termination occurred or when the Change in Control occurred, whichever is greater, plus (x) the Executive’s annual target bonus for the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurred or when the Change in Control occurred, whichever is greater (in each case calculated as if all applicable bonus targets were achieved) and (II) the Prorated Bonus. To the extent the foregoing amount is payable under Section 2(a) and/or included as Accrued Compensation and Expenses and/or Accrued Benefits (as described in Section 2(e)), it will not be paid under this Section 2(b). The Executive will receive his or her severance payment pursuant this Section 2(b)(i) in a cash lump-sum which will be made on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Separation, provided that the following have already occurred:
(1) the Company’s receipt of the Executive’s executed General Release (as described in Section 2(d)); and
(2) the expiration of any rescission period applicable to the Executive’s executed General Release.
(ii) Health Care Benefit. If the Executive is subject to a Qualifying Termination and satisfies both the conditions set forth in Subsection 2(b)(i)(1) and Subsection 2(b)(i)(2) above to receive cash severance payments, and if the Executive elects to continue his or her health insurance coverage under COBRA following the termination of his or her employment, then the Company shall pay the Executive’s monthly premium under COBRA until the earliest of (1) the COBRA Continuation Period (During a Change in Control Period) as specified and defined in the Executive Addendum; (2) the date when the Executive receives similar coverage with a new employer or (3) the expiration of the Executive’s continuation coverage under COBRA.
(iii) Equity. If the Executive is subject to a Qualifying Termination during a Change in Control Period and satisfies both the conditions set forth in Section 2(b)(i)(1) and Section 2(b)(i)(2) above, then, subject to Section 3 below, (a) each of Executive’s then outstanding unvested Equity Awards, including awards that would otherwise vest only upon satisfaction of performance criteria, shall accelerate and become vested and exercisable with respect to the Equity Acceleration as specified and defined in the Executive
2
Addendum and (b) Executive will be permitted to exercise any vested shares subject to Equity Awards that are nonstatutory stock options to purchase shares of Company common stock (after giving effect to the foregoing acceleration of vesting) until the Post-Termination Exercise Date that is specified and defined in the Executive Addendum; provided that such post-termination exercise period shall end upon the consummation of a Change in Control, unless such nonstatutory stock options are assumed in the Change in Control; provided, further, that in no event shall such post-termination exercise period exceed the expiration of the maximum term of the nonstatutory stock options. Subject to Section 2(d) and Section 3, the accelerated vesting described above shall be effective as of the Qualifying Termination. With respect to awards that would otherwise vest only upon satisfaction of performance criteria, the Equity Acceleration shall apply at target level of such performance criteria.
(c) Special Cash Payments in Lieu of COBRA Premiums. Notwithstanding Section 2(a)(ii) or Section 2(b)(ii) above, if the Executive is eligible for, and the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay, the COBRA premiums without a substantial risk of violating applicable law (including Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act) which will cause significant financial harm to the Company, the Company instead shall pay to the Executive, on the first day of each calendar month, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the applicable COBRA premiums for that month (including premiums for the Executive and the Executive’s eligible dependents who have elected and remain enrolled in such COBRA coverage), subject to applicable tax withholdings (such amount, the “Special Cash Payment”), for the remainder of the period the Executive remains eligible for the benefit under Section 2(a)(ii) or Section 2(b)(ii) above. The Executive may, but is not obligated to, use such Special Cash Payments toward the cost of COBRA premiums. In the event the Company opts for the Special Cash Payments, then on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Separation, the Company will make the first payment to the Executive under this Section 2(c), in a lump sum, equal to the aggregate Special Cash Payments that the Company would have paid through such date had the Special Cash Payments commenced on the first day of the first month following the Separation through such sixtieth (60th) day, with the balance of the Special Cash Payments paid monthly thereafter.
(d) General Release. Any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, Section 2(a), Section 2(b), and Section 2(c) above shall not apply unless the Executive (i) has executed a general release (in a form prescribed by the Company and provided to other executives similarly situated) (“General Release”) of all known and unknown claims that he or she may then have against the Company or persons affiliated with the Company and such release has become effective and (ii) has agreed not to prosecute any legal action or other proceeding based upon any of such claims. The General Release must be in the form prescribed by the Company, without alterations. The Company will deliver the form to the Executive within thirty (30) days after the Executive’s Separation. The Executive must execute and return the General Release within the time period specified in the form. The Executive shall not be required to release any claims arising under (a) any indemnification agreement between the Executive and the Company or (b) any rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or repayment arising under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws or the indemnification provisions of applicable State statutes, in each case as currently in effect or as subsequently amended.
(e) Accrued Compensation and Benefits. In connection with any termination of employment prior to, upon or following a Change in Control (whether or not a Qualifying Termination), the Company shall pay Executive’s earned but unpaid base salary and other vested but unpaid cash entitlements for the period through and including the termination of employment, including unused earned vacation pay and unreimbursed documented business expenses incurred by Executive through and including the date of termination (collectively “Accrued Compensation and Expenses”), as required by law and the applicable Company plan or policy. In addition, Executive shall be entitled to any other vested benefits earned by Executive for the period through and including the termination date of Executive’s employment under any
3
other employee benefit plans and arrangements maintained by the Company, in accordance with the terms of such plans and arrangements, except as modified herein (collectively “Accrued Benefits”). Any Accrued Compensation and Expenses to which the Executive is entitled shall be paid to the Executive in cash as soon as administratively practicable after the termination, and, in any event, no later than two and one-half (2-1/2) months after the end of the taxable year of the Executive in which the termination occurs. Any Accrued Benefits to which the Executive is entitled shall be paid to the Executive as provided in the relevant plans and arrangement.
3.COVENANTS.
(a) Non-Competition. The Executive agrees that, during his or her employment with the Company, he or she shall not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company.
(b) Non-Solicitation. The Executive agrees that, during his or her employment with the Company and for a one (1) year period thereafter, her or she will not directly or indirectly solicit away employees or consultants of the Company for his or her own benefit or for the benefit of any other person or entity, nor will the Executive encourage or assist others to do so.
(c) Cooperation and Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees that, during the six-month period following his or her cessation of employment, he or she shall cooperate with the Company in every reasonable respect and shall use his or her best efforts to assist the Company with the transition of Executive’s duties to his or her successor. The Executive further agrees that, during this six-month period, he or she shall not in any way or by any means disparage the Company, the members of the Board or the Company’s officers and employees.
(d) This Section 3 shall in no manner limit obligations of the Executive under any other agreement between the Company and the Executive in any manner; provided, however, that to the extent the terms of this Section 3 directly conflict with the terms of any such agreement, the agreement containing the most Company-favorable terms that are enforceable shall govern.

The Company shall require any successor (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, by an agreement in substance and form satisfactory to the Executive, to assume this Agreement and to agree expressly to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform it 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 or which becomes bound by this Agreement by operation of law.
(b) Executive’s Successors. This Agreement and all rights of the Executive hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.
6.GOLDEN PARACHUTE TAXES.
(a) Best After-Tax Result. In the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (“Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this subsection (a), be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, any successor provisions, or any comparable federal, state, local or foreign excise tax (“Excise Tax”), then, subject to the provisions of Section 6(b) hereof, such Payments shall be either (A) provided in full pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other applicable agreement, or (B) provided as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such Payments being subject to the Excise Tax (“Reduced Amount”), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, employment and other taxes and the Excise Tax (including, without limitation, any interest or penalties on such taxes), results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of payments and benefits provided for hereunder or otherwise, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made by independent tax counsel designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive (“Independent Tax Counsel”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required under this Section 6(a), Independent Tax Counsel may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code; provided that Independent Tax Counsel shall assume that Executive pays all taxes at the highest marginal rate. The Company and Executive shall furnish to Independent Tax Counsel such information and documents as Independent Tax Counsel may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs that Independent Tax Counsel may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section. In the event that Section 6(a)(ii)(B) above applies, then based on the information provided to Executive and the Company by Independent Tax Counsel, Executive may, in Executive’s sole discretion and within 30 days of the date on which Executive is provided with the information prepared by Independent Tax Counsel, determine which and how much of the Payments (including the accelerated vesting of equity compensation awards) to be otherwise received by Executive
6
shall be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such determination the value (as calculated by Independent Tax Counsel in accordance with the provisions of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code) of the amounts payable or distributable to Executive equals the Reduced Amount). If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) determines that any Payment is subject to the Excise Tax, then Section 6(b) hereof shall apply, and the enforcement of Section 6(b) shall be the exclusive remedy to the Company.
(b) Adjustments. If, notwithstanding any reduction described in Section 6(a) hereof (or in the absence of any such reduction), the IRS determines that Executive is liable for the Excise Tax as a result of the receipt of one or more Payments, then Executive shall be obligated to surrender or pay back to the Company, within 120 days after a final IRS determination, an amount of such payments or benefits equal to the “Repayment Amount.” The Repayment Amount with respect to such Payments shall be the smallest such amount, if any, as shall be required to be surrendered or paid to the Company so that Executive’s net proceeds with respect to such Payments (after taking into account the payment of the Excise Tax imposed on such Payments) shall be maximized. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repayment Amount with respect to such Payments shall be zero if a Repayment Amount of more than zero would not eliminate the Excise Tax imposed on such Payments or if a Repayment Amount of more than zero would not maximize the net amount received by Executive from the Payments. If the Excise Tax is not eliminated pursuant to this Section 6(b), Executive shall pay the Excise Tax.
7.MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
(a) Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, if the Company determines that Executive is a “specified employee” under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) at the time of a Separation, then (i) the severance benefits under Section 2, to the extent subject to Code Section 409A, will commence during the seventh month after the Executive’s Separation and (ii) will be paid in a lump sum on the earliest practicable date permitted by Section 409A(a)(2) of the Code. Any termination of Executive’s employment is intended to constitute a Separation from Service and will be determined consistent with the rules relating to a “separation from service” as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1. It is intended that each installment of the payments provided hereunder constitute separate “payments” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i). It is further intended that payments hereunder satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemption from the application of Section 409A of the Code (and any state law of similar effect) provided under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (as a “short-term deferral”). To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision will be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent any expense reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit under this Policy is determined to be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement, or the provision of any in-kind benefit, in one calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), in no event shall any expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurred such expenses, and in no event shall any right to reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
(b) Other Severance Arrangements. Except as otherwise specified herein, this Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to any and all severance arrangements, vesting acceleration arrangements and post-termination stock option exercise period arrangements, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior verbal or written discussions, negotiations and/or agreements between the Executive and the Company relating to the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to, any and all prior agreements governing any Equity Award, severance and salary continuation arrangements,
7
programs and plans which were previously offered by the Company, or any predecessor of the Company (including by merger or otherwise) to the Executive, and change in control and severance arrangements pursuant to an employment agreement or offer letter, and Executive hereby waives Executive’s rights to such other benefits. In no event shall any individual receive cash severance benefits under both this Agreement and any other severance pay or salary continuation program, plan or other arrangement with the Company.
(c) Dispute Resolution. To ensure rapid and economical resolution of any and all disputes that might arise in connection with this Agreement, Executive and the Company agree that any and all disputes, claims, and causes of action, in law or equity, arising from or relating to this Agreement or its enforcement, performance, breach, or interpretation, will be resolved solely and exclusively by final, binding, and confidential arbitration, by a single arbitrator, in San Mateo County, and conducted by the American Arbitration Association under its then-existing employment rules and procedures. Nothing in this section, however, is intended to prevent either party from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration. Each party to an arbitration or litigation hereunder shall be responsible for the payment of its own attorneys’ fees.
(d) Notice. 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 or deposited with Federal Express Corporation, with shipping charges prepaid. In the case of the Executive, mailed notices shall be addressed to him or her at the home address which he or she 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 Secretary.
(e) Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended or waived except by a writing signed by Executive and by a duly authorized representative of the Company other than Executive. No provision of this Agreement shall be modified, waived, superseded or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than the Executive) and, to the extent it supersedes this Agreement, that this Agreement is referred to by date. 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.
(f) Withholding Taxes. All payments made under this Agreement shall be subject to reduction to reflect taxes or other charges required to be withheld by law.
(g) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, which shall remain in full force and effect.
(h) No Retention Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Executive any right to continue in service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or of the Executive, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her service at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause.
(i) Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California (other than their choice-of-law provisions).
