RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company and Starboard have engaged in various discussions and communications concerning the Company’s business, financial performance and strategic plans;

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Starboard has a beneficial ownership (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”)) interest in the Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the Common Stock”) totaling, in the aggregate, 11,774,546 shares, or approximately 7.7% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof; and

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Company and Starboard have determined to come to an agreement with respect to the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and certain other matters, as provided in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

(i)    The Company agrees that immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to (A) increase the size of the Board from nine (9) to twelve (12) directors (provided that the size of the Board shall automatically decrease to nine (9) directors at the conclusion of the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”)) and, in connection therewith, expand the number of directors comprising each of the Class II and Class III directors of the Board by one (1) and two (2), respectively, (B) appoint Jack Lazar to the Board as a Class III director with a term expiring at the 2020 Annual Meeting, who will fill an existing vacancy among the Class III directors created by the expanded classes (the “First Independent Designee”), (C) appoint one (1) independent director to the Board prior to the 2020 Annual Meeting as a Class II director with a term expiring at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Second Independent Designee”, together with the First Independent Designee, the “Independent Designees”), with such Second Independent Designee to either be selected from the Candidate List (as defined below) or mutually agreed upon between the Company and Starboard in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1(a)(iii) of this Agreement, and who will fill the existing vacancy among the Class II directors

created by the expanded classes, (D) identify and appoint one (1) additional independent director (the “Additional Independent Director”) to the Board prior to the 2020 Annual Meeting as a Class III director with a term expiring at the 2020 Annual Meeting, who will fill an existing vacancy among the Class III directors created by the expanded classes, (E) cause Dylan Smith and Rory O’Driscoll not to stand for re-election at the 2020 Annual Meeting such that the Board shall nominate the following individuals, and only the following individuals, as Class III directors for election to the Board at the 2020 Annual Meeting for terms expiring at the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2023 Annual Meeting”): the First Independent Designee, Sue Barsamian and the Additional Independent Director, and (F) accept the resignation tendered by Josh Stein as a director of the Company, who the Company hereby represents has submitted, or shall no later than the date hereof submit, an irrevocable letter of resignation to the Board that will become effective no later than upon the conclusion of the 2020 Annual Meeting.

(ii)    The Company agrees that it will nominate the First Independent Designee for election at the 2020 Annual Meeting as a Class III director with a term expiring at the 2023 Annual Meeting and will recommend, support and solicit proxies for the election of the First Independent Designee, in the same manner as for the Company’s other Class III director nominees. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to hold the 2020 Annual Meeting no later than July 19, 2020.

(iii)    The Company agrees that, no later than forty-five (45) days following the date of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) the Second Independent Designee for appointment to the Board, who shall be recommended by Starboard from the list of independent director candidates agreed to between the Company and Starboard as of the date hereof (the “Candidate List”). If for any reason the Company and Starboard are unable to mutually agree on the identity of the Second Independent Designee from the Candidate List, each of Starboard and the Company shall be permitted to submit additional candidates until the Company and Starboard mutually agree on the identity of the Second Independent Designee, provided, however, that if the Second Independent Designee is not identified and approved by the Board within forty-five (45) days following the date of this Agreement, the Board shall immediately, but no later than five (5) business days thereafter, select and approve one (1) of the director candidates from the Candidate List as the Second Independent Designee. Promptly following the Board’s approval of the Second Independent Designee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, but no later than five (5) business days thereafter, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to appoint the Second Independent Designee to the Board as a Class II director.

(iv)    If any Independent Designee (or any Replacement Director (as defined below)) is unable or unwilling to serve as a director and ceases to be a director, resigns as a director, is removed as a director, or for any other reason fails to serve or is not serving as a director at any time prior to the expiration of the Standstill Period (as defined below), and at such time Starboard beneficially owns (as determined under Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) in the aggregate at least the lesser of 3% of the Company’s then-outstanding Common Stock and 4,560,420 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reclassifications, combinations and similar adjustments) (the “Minimum Ownership Threshold”),

2

Starboard shall have the ability to recommend a person to be a Replacement Director in accordance with this Section 1(a)(iv) (any such replacement nominee, when appointed to the Board, shall be referred to as a “Replacement Director”). Any Replacement Director must (A) be reasonably acceptable to the Board (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld), (B) qualify as “independent” pursuant to New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards, (C) have the relevant financial and business experience to be a director of the Company, and (D) not be an affiliate, employee or director of Starboard. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee shall make its determination and recommendation regarding whether such Replacement Director meets the foregoing criteria within ten (10) business days after (1) such nominee has submitted to the Company the documentation required by Section 1(c)(iv), including such nominee’s consent to the Company’s customary background check and (2) representatives of the Board have conducted customary interview(s) of such nominee, if such interviews are requested by the Board or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to conduct the background check and any interview(s) contemplated by this Section 1(a)(iv) as promptly as practicable, but in any case with respect to the interview(s), assuming reasonable availability of the nominee, within ten (10) business days after Starboard’s submission of such nominee. In the event that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not accept a person recommended by Starboard as the Replacement Director, Starboard shall have the right to recommend additional substitute person(s) whose appointment shall be subject to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommending such person in accordance with the procedures described above. Upon the recommendation of a Replacement Director nominee by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board shall vote on the appointment of such Replacement Director to the Board no later than five (5) business days after the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommendation of such Replacement Director; provided, however, that if the Board does not appoint such Replacement Director to the Board pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iv), the Parties shall continue to follow the procedures of this Section 1(a)(iv) until a Replacement Director is elected to the Board. Subject to NYSE rules and applicable law, upon a Replacement Director’s appointment to the Board, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to appoint such Replacement Director to any applicable committee of the Board of which the replaced director was a member immediately prior to such director’s resignation or removal. Subject to NYSE rules and applicable law, until such time as any Replacement Director is appointed to any applicable committee of the Board, the other Independent Designee will be provided the opportunity to serve as an interim member of such applicable committee. Any Replacement Director designated pursuant to this Section 1(a)(iv) replacing an Independent Designee that is a Class III director prior to the mailing of the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2020 Annual Meeting shall stand for election at the 2020 Annual Meeting together with the other Class III director nominees.

(v)    During the period commencing with the date of this Agreement through the 2020 Annual Meeting, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall not (A) increase the size of the Board to more than twelve (12) directors or (B) seek to change the classes on which the Board members serve, in each case without the prior written consent of Starboard. Effective upon conclusion of the 2020 Annual Meeting through the expiration of the Standstill Period, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall not (A) increase the size of the Board to more than nine (9) directors or (B) seek to change the classes on which the Board members serve, in each case without the prior written consent of Starboard.

3

(vi)    During the Standstill Period, the Company will have in effect a provision in its Corporate Governance Guidelines providing that any “employee director must submit his or her offer of resignation from the Board in writing upon termination of employment with the Company” and the Company hereby agrees to accept, and to cause the Board to accept, any such resignation tendered during the Standstill Period unless a majority of the independent directors on the Board determine otherwise.

Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to (A) form an Operating Committee of the Board (the “Operating Committee”) to work with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and management to identify and recommend opportunities for further improvement in growth and margin performance, (B) appoint, immediately upon their respective appointment to the Board, the Independent Designees to the Operating Committee, plus Sue Barsamian, and Kim Hammonds, with Ms. Barsamian serving as its Chairperson. During the Standstill Period, the Operating Committee shall be comprised of four (4) directors (unless otherwise agreed by the Operating Committee), comprised of (A) unless otherwise agreed by the Operating Committee, the Independent Designees (or Replacement Directors), (B) two other directors, who, unless otherwise determined by the Board, shall be Ms. Barsamian, and Ms. Hammonds, and (C) Ms. Barsamian serving as its Chairperson; provided that the Board shall be entitled to select an alternative Chairperson in the event Ms. Barsamian is no longer serving on the Committee.

The Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions to (A) provide each of the Independent Designees, immediately upon their respective appointment to the Board, the opportunity to be appointed to at least one (1) standing committee of the Board other than the Operating Committee (which shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1(b)(i) above) and upon such Independent Designee’s consent to serve, immediately appoint such Independent Designee to such standing committee(s) of the Board and (B) provide the opportunity for at least one (1) of the Independent Designees to be appointed to each committee of the Board other than the Operating Committee (which shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1(b)(i) above) and upon any such Independent Designee’s consent to serve, immediately appoint any such Independent Designee to any such standing committee(s) of the Board.

(iii)    During the Standstill Period, at least one (1) Independent Designee shall be provided the opportunity to be appointed to each standing committee of the Board other than the Operating Committee (which shall be subject to the provisions of Section 1(b)(i) above), and any subcommittee thereof, including any new committee(s) and subcommittee(s) that may be established, provided that at least one (1) Independent Designee satisfies any NYSE listing standards and legal requirements for service on any such committee with respect to financial expertise and independence.

4

(iv)    The Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall give each of the Independent Designees and the Additional Independent Director the same due consideration for membership to each other committee of the Board as any other independent director.

(i)    Starboard shall comply, and shall cause each of its controlled Affiliates and Associates to comply, with the terms of this Agreement and shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any such controlled Affiliate or Associate. As used in this Agreement, the terms “Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act and shall include all persons or entities that at any time during the term of this Agreement become Affiliates or Associates of any person or entity referred to in this Agreement.

(ii)    During the Standstill Period, except as otherwise provided herein, Starboard shall not, and shall cause each of its controlled Affiliates and Associates not to, directly or indirectly, (A) nominate or recommend for nomination any person for election at any annual or special meeting of the Company’s stockholders, (B) submit any proposal for consideration at, or bring any other business before, any annual or special meeting of the Company’s stockholders, or (C) initiate, encourage or participate in any “vote no,” “withhold” or similar campaign with respect to any annual or special meeting of the Company’s stockholders. Starboard shall not publicly or privately encourage or support any other stockholder, person or entity to take any of the actions described in this Section 1(c)(ii).

(“ISS”) or Glass Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”) recommends otherwise with respect to (A) the Company’s “say-on-pay” proposal, (B) any other Company proposal or stockholder proposal presented at the 2020 Annual Meeting, or (C) the election of any director, then, in each case, Starboard shall be permitted to vote in accordance with the ISS or Glass Lewis recommendation.

(iv)    Starboard acknowledges that, prior to the date of this Agreement, each Independent Designee and prior to any appointment, each Replacement Director, is required to submit to the Company a fully completed copy of the Company’s standard director & officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director onboarding documentation applicable to directors of the Company, including consent to the Company’s customary background check.

(v)    The Company agrees that the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions, effective no later than immediately following the execution of this Agreement, to determine, in connection with their initial appointment as a director and nomination by the Company at the 2020 Annual Meeting, as applicable, that each of

Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Company and Starboard shall jointly issue a mutually agreeable press release (the “Press Release”) announcing certain terms of this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Prior to the issuance of the Press Release and subject to the terms of this Agreement, neither the Company (including the Board and any committee thereof) nor Starboard shall issue any press release or make public announcement regarding this Agreement or the matters contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other Party. During the Standstill Period, neither the Company nor Starboard shall make any public announcement or statement that is inconsistent with or contrary to the terms of this Agreement.

Each of Starboard, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury to the other Party hereto would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that such injury would not be adequately compensable by the remedies available at law (including the payment of money damages). It is accordingly agreed that Starboard, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand (the “Moving Party”), shall each be entitled to specific enforcement of, and injunctive relief to prevent any violation of, the terms hereof, and the other Party hereto will not take action, directly or indirectly, in opposition to the Moving Party seeking such relief on the grounds that any other remedy or relief is available at law or in equity. This Section 6 is not the exclusive remedy for any violation of this Agreement.

The Company shall reimburse Starboard for its reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred in connection with Starboard’s involvement at the Company through the date of this Agreement, including, but not limited to the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, provided that such reimbursement shall not exceed $200,000 in the aggregate.

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the

9

intention of the Parties that the Parties would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such which may be hereafter declared invalid, void or unenforceable. In addition, the Parties agree to use their best efforts to agree upon and substitute a valid and enforceable term, provision, covenant or restriction for any of such that is held invalid, void or enforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — (March 23, 2020) — Box (NYSE: BOX), a leader in cloud content management, today announced that it has entered into an agreement with Starboard Value LP (together with certain of its affiliates, “Starboard”), an investment firm which owns approximately 7.7% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Under the terms of the agreement, three new independent directors will join the Box Board of Directors prior to the company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in June 2020 (“2020 Annual Meeting”), two incumbent directors will not stand for re-election to the board at the 2020 Annual Meeting and one incumbent director will retire from the board effective as of the 2020 Annual Meeting. The board will be set at 9 directors following the 2020 Annual Meeting.

Jack Lazar, formerly chief financial officer of GoPro and Atheros Communications, will join the Box Board of Directors immediately. In addition, a second new director will be selected from a list of candidates provided by Starboard or will otherwise be mutually agreed. A third new director will be selected by the board prior to the 2020 Annual Meeting.

“We are pleased to welcome Jack to our board,” said Aaron Levie, Box Co-founder, CEO, and Chairman. “He brings valuable experience in both the enterprise and consumer technology markets, along with a strong track record of helping companies drive disciplined growth and profitability as both a leader and board member. I look forward to working with Jack and our other new independent directors to continue to create value for stockholders. We are also pleased to continue our collaboration with Starboard and appreciate the constructive approach they have taken.”

“I’m thrilled to join the Box Board of Directors. Aaron, Dylan, and the entire leadership team at Box have pioneered cloud content management and the company has a massive opportunity to define the future of work around the world,” said Mr. Lazar. “I’m honored to be joining an experienced board and look forward to helping Box drive sustainable and profitable growth.”

Rory O’Driscoll will not stand for re-election and Josh Stein will retire from Box’s Board of Directors at the time of the 2020 Annual Meeting. Box co-founder Dylan Smith will continue in his role as CFO but will not stand for re-election as a director at the 2020 Annual Meeting.

“We thank Rory and Josh for their many contributions as directors and early investors in Box,” Mr. Levie added. “Rory has served on our board for 10 years, and Josh has served for nearly 14 years. During that time, they have played a critical role in the growth of Box, and we have benefitted greatly from their valuable insight and support.”

In addition, Box today announced the formation of an Operating Committee of the board. This committee will work with Box’s CEO, CFO, and management to identify and recommend opportunities for further improvement in growth and margin performance. Mr. Lazar and the new independent director chosen in collaboration with Starboard will join existing directors Sue Barsamian and Kim Hammonds on the committee. Ms. Barsamian has served on the board since 2018 and brings several decades of enterprise software experience from HP and Mercury Interactive. Ms. Hammonds has served on the board since 2018 and brings leadership experience from her previous roles as the Group COO of Deutsche Bank AG and the CIO of The Boeing Company.

Peter Feld, Managing Member of Starboard, said, “We are pleased to have worked constructively with the Box board and management team to reach this agreement to strengthen the board with new independent directors and to create a new Operating Committee. We see a number of opportunities for substantial shareholder value creation and look forward to seeing the Company execute on opportunities to drive profitable growth towards a best-in-class financial profile. We are confident the addition of three new independent directors will add tremendous value to the board, and we also share the board’s appreciation for Rory and Josh’s years of service.”

The agreement with Starboard includes other customary provisions. Additional information about today’s announcement will be filed on a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
