Your target annual grant will be $825,000, in the mix of equity vehicles (currently restricted share units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”)) and on a vesting schedule consistent with grants given to senior executives at the Company. The annual grants for executives other than NEOs currently consist of 75% RSUs and 25% PSUs. The annual grants for NEOs currently consist of 50% RSUs and 50% PSUs. You must be employed by the Company on the grant date to receive a grant.
Location:You will be based in the Company’s Playa Vista offices, with travel to the Company’s other domestic and international offices and additional locations as reasonably required by the performance of your duties and the business of the Company. If any long-term travel is planned, you and the Company will agree in advance on a schedule. You will have office accommodations similar to those of other senior executives in Playa Vista.
Car Allowance:You will receive a car allowance in the annualized amount of $13,200, paid with your regular pay on a semi-monthly basis as taxable income.

If the Company terminates your employment without cause, you will receive severance pay equal to one month of base salary and target bonus for every year of service (pro-rated for partial years); provided that the minimum severance period will be six months, and the maximum severance period will be twelve months. If you resign for Good Reason, as defined in the next sentence, you will receive the same severance pay as if you had been terminated without cause. “Good Reason” shall mean (a) a material reduction in your responsibilities, or (b) the Company requiring you to be permanently based at any office or location more than twenty (20) miles from Playa Vista; provided, however, that no such event shall constitute Good Reason unless you first give the Company written notice of your intention to resign your employment for Good Reason and the grounds for such resignation, and such grounds for resignation are not corrected by the Company within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such notice.
