Re: | Letter Relating to Employment Terms |
Dear Xx. Xxxx:
This letter is to confirm the terms of your continued employment with NetSuite Inc. (the “Company”). This letter agreement supersedes all prior agreements relating to the terms of your employment, except for the Severance and Change of Control Agreement dated the same date as this letter agreement, between you and the Company (the “Severance Agreement”) and the Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement dated as of the same date as this Agreement, between you and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). The terms set forth below shall be effective from July 1, 2010 (the “Effective Date”).
1. Title and Cash Compensation
Your title will be Chief Financial Officer. In your capacity as Chief Financial Officer, you will report to the President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). As of the Effective Date, your monthly base salary is $20,833.33 per month, or $250,000.00 on an annualized basis.
2. Bonus Compensation
In addition to your base salary, you will be eligible for an annual performance-based cash incentive award, as determined by the Company. For calendar year 2010, your annual performance-based cash incentive award shall be paid under and in accordance with the 2010 Executive Performance Based Cash Incentive Plan. Under that plan, effective as of the Effective Date, you will have an annual target bonus equal to 60% of your base salary pro-rated to reflect your service as CFO for the remainder of 2010. Therefore, for the last 6 months of calendar year 2010, your target annual incentive cash bonus will equal $75,000.
For the last 6 months of calendar year 2010, the actual annual cash incentive award payable to you shall be determined to be below, at, or above the target: (a) 75% of the award will be based upon the Company’s achievement level against Company financial and other performance objectives; and (b) 25% of the award will be based upon your individual performance as determined in the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”), in consultation with the CEO, based on a qualitative assessment of your performance.
Your target performance-based annual incentive cash award and the performance components shall be set each year, and performance against them determined, by the Compensation Committee in consultation with the CEO.

Such awards will be subject to the terms of the applicable equity compensation plan or arrangement in effect at the time of grant. The Compensation Committee will determine in its discretion whether you will be granted any such equity awards in the future and the terms and conditions of any such awards in accordance with the terms of any applicable equity plan.
You should be aware that you may incur federal and state income taxes as a result of your receipt or the vesting of any equity compensation awards and it shall be your responsibility to pay any such applicable taxes.
