Dear Jim,

As you know, Audience, Inc. (the “Company” or “Audience”) is in the process of acquiring your current employer, Sensor Platforms, Inc. (“Sensor Platforms”). We at the Company are very excited about the addition of Sensor Platforms, and in particular, we are looking forward to the addition of your experience and expertise in our newly combined Company. Please note that this offer is contingent upon the closing of the Company’s acquisition of Sensor Platforms (the “Closing”) occurring prior to July 15, 2014 (the “Deadline’’). If the Closing does not occur prior to the Deadline, then this offer of employment is void and your employment with Sensor Platforms will continue unchanged. If you accept this offer, your start date will be the Closing date.

I am pleased to offer you a position with Audience as Vice President, Software Engineering, reporting to Eitan Medina, Vice President, Engineering. If you decide to join us, your base salary will be $230,000 per year which will be paid semi-monthly in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures. In addition, you will be eligible for a performance-based bonus target of $70,000 annually which will be prorated for the remainder of 2014.

As an employee, you will be eligible to continue to participate in your current employee welfare benefit plans at Sensor Platforms, and you will be offered participation in the Company’s 401(k) plan, in each case, subject to any eligibility requirements imposed by such plans. We expect there may be a transition period before you are eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans (typically as of January 1st of a new year) and the Company will schedule a meeting with you and other employees to discuss the details of any changes in your benefits package.

Any vacation days that you have earned with Sensor Platforms will be honored by the Company. Your vacation balance with Sensor Platforms will be carried over to the Company, and subject to the Company’s vacation policies in effect from time to time. The Company will give you service credit for purposes of its vacation policy based on your hire date at Sensor Platforms. Under the Audience vacation policy, employees are entitled to accrue up to 12 days of paid vacation per calendar year, pro-rated for the remainder of this calendar year, plus one additional vacation day per full year of employment (including your time at Sensor Platforms). Vacation accrual is capped at 25 days. Vacation may not be taken before it is accrued. You should note that the Company may modify job titles, salaries and benefits from time to time as it deems necessary. By your signature below, you acknowledge and agree to the treatment of your accrued vacation in connection with the Closing.

Immediately prior to the Closing, you will receive a grants of restricted stock units having an aggregate value equal to $900,000 (the “RSUs”). For purposes of the RSUs, “value” will mean the closing price of Company common stock for the 10 trading days ending 2 days prior to the Closing. The RSU grants which will be granted under Sensor Platform’s equity incentive plan and assumed by Audience.

With regards to a portion of your RSUs having a value equal to $600,000 (the “Retention RSUs”), 1/3 of the shares subject to the Retention RSUs shall vest 12 months after the date your vesting begins (the “Vesting Start Date”), and the remaining Retention RSUs shall vest as to 1/3 on each annual anniversary of the Vesting Start Date thereafter, subject to your continuing to provide services to the Company through each vesting date.

With regards to a portion of your RSUs having a value equal to $300,000 (the “New Hire RSUs”), 1/4 of the shares subject to the New Hire RSUs shall vest 12 months after the Vesting Start Date, and the remaining New Hire RSUs shall vest over three years in equal 6 month tranches on each anniversary of the Vesting Start Date thereafter, subject to your continuing to provide services to the Company through each vesting date.

We anticipate that you will enter into an irrevocable election relating to the RSU to permit the payment of required taxes upon vesting of the RSUs. No right to any stock is earned or accrued until such time that vesting occurs, nor does a grant confer any right to continue vesting or employment.
