2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On July 15, 2015, the stockholders of SeaChange approved the SeaChange 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2015 Plan”). By approving the 2015 Plan, the stockholders approved 1,150,000 shares of SeaChange’s common stock as the number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2015 Plan.

All employees of SeaChange or any of its participating subsidiaries whose customary employment is more than twenty (20) hours per week are eligible to participate in the 2015 Plan. Employees who own (or are deemed to own through attribution) five percent (5%) or more of the combined voting power or value of all classes of SeaChange stock or the stock of one of SeaChange’s subsidiaries are not allowed to participate in the 2015 Plan.

Employees will enroll under the 2015 Plan by completing a payroll deduction authorization form permitting the deduction of at least one percent (1%) but not more than fifteen percent (15%) from their compensation. However, in no case may a participant subscribe for more than 2,500 shares of common stock during any offering period or $25,000 of fair market value of common stock during any calendar year.

Under the 2015 Plan, participants will be offered the option to purchase shares of SeaChange common stock at a discount on the exercise date for each offering period. Offering periods under the 2015 Plan typically commence on October 1 and April 1 and end on March 31 and September 30, respectively, with this last trading day being the exercise date for the offering period. The first offering period under the 2015 Plan will commence October 1, 2015.

The option purchase price will be eighty-five percent (85%) of the average market price of SeaChange’s common stock on the exercise date as reported on Nasdaq, but no less than par value.

SeaChange’s Compensation Committee, as the Board committee administering the 2015 Plan, will have the sole and absolute discretion to impose a minimum holding period on stock purchased under the 2015 Plan, during which each participant’s right to transfer or otherwise dispose of such shares will be restricted for the specified period of time. The minimum holding period may not exceed twelve months, and the current minimum holding period is twelve months. The minimum holding period shall be waived if a participant’s employment is terminated without cause or due to death or disability of the participant. The Compensation Committee may waive the minimum holding period on a case-by-case basis if the Compensation Committee determines that a participant has suffered financial hardship.

For a description of the material features of the 2015 Plan, please refer to SeaChange’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A for the Annual Meeting of the Stockholders held on July 15, 2015, a copy of which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 22, 2015 (File No. 000-21393) and is incorporated herein by reference.
