Dear Kin,
On behalf of Bazaarvoice, Inc. (the “Company”), I am pleased to offer you a transfer to the position of Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Secretary reporting to Gene Austin. In this position, you will be expected to continue to devote your full business time, attention and energies to the performance of your duties with the Company. Your transfer becomes effective January 6, 2015. The terms of this offer of employment, not otherwise revised by the terms of this letter, remain the same as your original offer letter dated December 13, 2012.
1. At-Will Employment. You should be aware that your employment with the Company is for no specified period and constitutes “at-will” employment. As a result, you are free to terminate your employment at any time, for any reason or for no reason. Similarly, the Company is free to terminate your employment at any time, for any reason or for no reason.
2. Compensation. The Company will pay you a base salary at a rate of $21,666.67 per month (annualized to $260,000 per year) effective January 1, 2015 in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll policies, including compliance with applicable withholding requirements. The first and last payment by the Company to you will be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect a commencement or termination date other than the first or last working day of a pay period.
Gill, Kin – transfer January 6, 2015
In addition to your base salary, you will be eligible to participate in an annual Key Executive Bonus Plan (effective May 1, 2014 for FY’15) to be adopted each fiscal year that sets your targeted bonus amount to be paid upon achievement of defined goals for the company and you. In your initial year in the plan, your targeted annual bonus will be $104,000 at 100% achievement, pro-rated from your date of transfer.
3. Stock Ownership. The Company’s Board of Directors has approved an equity based compensation award(s) more fully described in Exhibit A attached hereto.
