7. Stock Option and Promissory Note.
a. Background. Pursuant to a Notice of Stock Option Grant and Stock Option Agreement (such notice and agreement, the Option Agreement), the Company granted you an option on July 31, 2017, to purchase 900,000 shares of the Companys common stock (the Option) under the Anaplan, Inc. 2012 Stock Plan (the Plan). In September 2017, you purchased 170,000 of the shares subject to the Option (the Purchased Shares) at a purchase price of $5.79 per share, by delivery of a full-recourse promissory note, dated as of September 28, 2017 (the 2017 Note) and a related stock pledge agreement (the 2017 Pledge Agreement).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Option Agreement, you hereby acknowledge that the remaining unvested portion of the Option (i.e., the 675,000 unvested shares) shall hereby be forfeited by you for no consideration, effective as of the Resignation Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option Agreement will remain in full force and effect, and you agree to remain bound by the Plan, that agreement (and any exercise agreement you executed in connection with the acquisition of the Purchased Shares).

c. Promissory Note Outstanding. Subject to any earlier repayment required upon the occurrence of an event of acceleration, as set forth in the 2017 Note, the entire remaining unpaid principal sum and accrued interest under the 2017 Note shall become due and payable by you on September 28, 2021. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything in the 2017 Note or the 2017 Pledge Agreement to the contrary, in the event you sell or transfer any of the Purchased Shares prior to your repayment of the entire unpaid principal sum and accrued interest under the 2017 Note, you shall, as a result of such sale or transfer, repay to the Company, within 30 days following such transfer or sale, an amount equal to the product of: (i) the aggregate outstanding principal and interest under the 2017 Note as of the date of such sale or transfer, multiplied by (ii) the Applicable Fraction (as defined below), which amount shall be applied towards the satisfaction of the outstanding principal sum and accrued interest of the 2017 Note; provided, that, any such repayment by you to the Company shall not relieve you of your obligation to repay any remaining unpaid principal sum and accrued interest remaining under the 2017 Note after taking into account the amount of any proceeds repaid by you to the Company. For these purposes, the Applicable Fraction shall be a fraction having a numerator equal to the number of the Purchased Shares that you sell or transfer at the applicable time, and a denominator equal to the total number of the Purchased Shares you beneficially owned immediately prior to such sale or transfer.
8. Restricted Stock Units. On July 31, 2017, the Company granted you 150,000 restricted stock units (the Initial RSUs) under the Plan, pursuant to a Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award and Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, which was subsequently amended (such notice and agreement, as amended, the Initial RSU Agreement). On September 20, 2017, the Company granted you 24,202 restricted stock units (the Additional RSUs) under the Plan, pursuant to a Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Award and Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, which was subsequently amended (such notice and agreement, as amended, the Additional RSU Agreement). Subject to your continuing compliance with the Continuing Obligations and your obligations under the Consulting Agreement, the Company will treat you as having satisfied the time-based requirement with respect to 37,500 of the Initial RSUs and 6,050 of the Additional RSUs, effective as of November 2, 2018. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Initial RSU Agreement or the Additional RSU Agreement, you hereby acknowledge that the remaining 112,500 Initial RSUs and the remaining 18,152 Additional RSUs shall hereby be forfeited by you for no consideration, effective as of the Resignation Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Initial RSU Agreement and the Additional RSU Agreement will each remain in full force and effect, and you agree to remain bound by the Plan and those agreements, as applicable. For purposes of this Section 8, you will be treated as having satisfied your continuing obligations under the Consulting Agreement if the Company were to terminate the Consulting Agreement prior to November 2, 2018, unless, in connection with such termination, the Company has determined that you have failed to perform your duties thereunder to its reasonable satisfaction.

8. Miscellaneous. Any breach of Section 2 or 3 will cause irreparable harm to Company for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and therefore, Company will be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any other remedies. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights. No changes, additions, modifications or waivers to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorneys fees. Headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect interpretation of the Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto agree that: (i) the separation agreement between Consultant and Company, dated as of July 2, 2018 (the Separation Agreement) (and, to the extent applicable, the agreements referenced therein) shall survive this Agreement and Consultant will remain bound by the obligations and entitled to the benefits set forth therein; (ii) the PIIA (as defined in the Separation Agreement) shall survive this Agreement; and (iii) if Consultant fails to timely enter into or revokes the Separation Agreement, then this Agreement shall be deemed void ab initio and shall have no further force or effect.
12
9. Arbitration. Any controversy or claim (except those regarding Inventions, Proprietary Information or intellectual property) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof, provided however, that each party will have a right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of law. The prevailing party will be entitled to receive from the non-prevailing party all costs, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by the prevailing party in connection with that action or proceeding, whether or not the controversy is reduced to judgment or award. The prevailing party will be that party who may be fairly said by the arbitrator(s) to have prevailed on the major disputed issues. Consultant hereby consents to the arbitration in the State of California in the county of San Francisco.
NOTICE: This agreement does not affect any immunity under 18 USC Sections 1833(b) (1) or (2), which read as follows (note that for purposes of this statute only, individuals performing work as contractors or consultants are considered to be employees):
(1) An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.
