On March 4, 2010, Microtune, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amended and Restated Severance and Change of Control Agreements with James A. Fontaine, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, Barry F. Koch, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Justin M. Chapman, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Robert S. Kirk, the Company’s Vice President of Worldwide Sales, Phillip D. Peterson, the Company’s General Counsel, and William E. Basso, the Company’s Vice President of Operations (the “Executive Agreements”). The terms of the Executive Agreements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. Pursuant to the Executive Agreements, if any of the foregoing officers are terminated without cause or are terminated without cause within six months after a “change of control,” transaction (as defined by the Executive Agreements), such officer is entitled to a lump sum payment equal to his base annual compensation plus the maximum bonus (and sales commission in the case of Mr. Kirk) available to him under any bonus program offered by the Company during the year in which the termination occurs, or if the officer is not eligible for a bonus in the year in which the termination occurs, the maximum bonus available to him under any bonus program offered by the Company in the most recent prior year for which a bonus was available. In addition, all unvested equity awards held by the officer that would have vested over the twelve month period following the officer’s termination will immediately vest. If the officer’s employment is terminated more than six months but less than twelve months following a change of control, he is entitled to a lump sum payment equal to 50% of his base annual compensation plus 50% of the maximum bonus available to him under any bonus or commission program offered by the Company during the year in which the termination occurs, or if the officer is not eligible for a bonus or commission in the year in which the termination occurs, the maximum bonus available to him under any bonus program offered by the Company in the most recent prior year for which a bonus was available. In addition, all unvested equity awards held by the officer that would have vested over the six month period following the officer’s termination will immediately vest. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Executive Agreements, attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6 and incorporated herein by reference.
