Such omitted confidential information has been designated by an asterisk and has been filed separately in accordance with the Securities and Exchange act of 1934, as amended, and the Commission's rules and regulations promulgated under the Freedom of Information Act, pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. *** This TERMINATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into on November 7, 2002 (the "Effective Date") by and between Gemstar-TV Guide International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Gemstar Development Corporation, a California corporation ("GDC"), and Henry C. Yuen ("Employee"). WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, the Company (as successor in interest to Gemstar International Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation), Employee and GDC are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated as of January 7, 1998, as amended (the "Current Employment Agreement"), pursuant to which Employee is currently employed as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company and as President and Chief Executive Officer of GDC; and WHEREAS, the Company, GDC and Employee have agreed that Employee will (i) relinquish the titles of Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the titles of President and Chief Executive Officer of GDC, (ii) terminate the Current Employment Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein, including providing for the mutual releases set forth herein, and (iii) enter into a new employment agreement with the Company (the "New Employment Agreement") pursuant to which Employee will serve as the non-executive Chairman of the Board of the Company and as head of a business unit of the Company focused on developing new international markets ("Gemstar International"). NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, the parties agree as follows: 1. Resignations and Termination of Current Employment Agreement. Subject to the payment by the Company of the amounts required to be paid to Employee on the Effective Date as provided in Section 2 hereof and the performance by the Company of its other obligations to be performed on the Effective Date as provided herein, (a) Employee hereby resigns, effective as of the Effective Date, (i) as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, (ii) as President and Chief Executive Officer of GDC, (iii) from each and every office that he may hold with any direct or indirect Subsidiary (as such term is defined below), (iv) as a member of the Board of Directors of any Subsidiary of which he may be a director, including without limitation, the Board of Directors of GDC, (v) as a member of any committee of the Board of Directors of the Company and any Subsidiary of which he may be a member, (vi) as a trustee or member of any committee in connection with any employee benefit or compensation plan, fund or program, of the Company or any Subsidiary of which he may be a trustee or committee member and (vii) from any and all other titles, capacities, or functions with the Company, GDC and their respective Subsidiaries and affiliates other than as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and as the head of "Gemstar International" (as defined in and as contemplated by the New Employment Agreement) and (b) as of the Effective Date, the Current Employment Agreement shall terminate in its entirety and shall be of no further force or effect. As used in this Agreement, the term "Subsidiary" means any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, business trust, limited liability partnership, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture or other entity of which securities (or other interests) having the power to elect a majority of that entity's board of directors or similar governing body, or otherwise having the power to direct the business and policies of that entity (other than securities or other interests having such power only upon the happening of a contingency that has not occurred) are held by the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries. 2. Payments and Other Benefits. (a) The Company shall pay to Employee by wire transfer on the Effective Date, subject in each case to any required tax and similar withholdings, (i) a termination fee of $22,452,640 and (ii) $7,030,778 (in full and complete settlement for all unpaid salary, bonuses and unused vacation days due under the Current Employment Agreement or otherwise). (b) In addition to the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall reimburse Employee pursuant to Sections 3(e), 3(g), 5, and 7 of the Current Employment Agreement for any amounts due and owing (or required to be reimbursed) under such Sections through the Effective Date, such reimbursement to be made in accordance with the terms of such Sections; provided, however, that no request for reimbursement pursuant to Section 3(e), 3(g) or 5 of the Current Employment Agreement shall be permitted after the Effective Date with respect to any expense incurred prior to January 1, 2002; and provided further, that any and all requests for reimbursement pursuant to Section 3(e), 3(g) or 5 of the Current Employment Agreement must be submitted by Employee no later than thirty (30) business days after the Effective Date; and provided further, that no request for reimbursement shall be permitted after the Effective Date for any expenses described in clause (A) of the second sentence of Section 3(e) of the Current Employment Agreement, it being understood that all such expenses are to be reimbursed pursuant to, and subject to the limitations set forth in, Section 4 of this Agreement. (c) Employee and the Company acknowledge that, pursuant to the Current Employment Agreement, the Company entered into split dollar life insurance agreements with the trustee of a trust of which Employee is a trustor pursuant to which the Company is required to pay all of the premiums with respect to, and otherwise to maintain in full force and effect, one or more life insurance policies on the life of Employee, which policies provide, in the aggregate, death benefits minus the aggregate of all premiums paid by the Company, of at least $20,000,000 (the "Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements"). Employee and the Company further acknowledge that uncertainty exists as to the continued permissibility of the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements because of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and any rules or regulations arising thereunder, as it may be amended from time to time (the "Sarbanes- 2 Oxley Act"). Pending resolution of that uncertainty, as provided below, the premiums required to maintain the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements shall be paid out of the cash value of the policies, and if the cash value of a particular policy shall be insufficient to pay the premium on that policy, such premium may be paid out of the cash value of any other policy. In no event shall the Company have any obligation to pay any amount under the policies (with respect to premiums or otherwise) regardless of whether the result is that the policy will lapse on account of non-payment of the premium. The permissibility of the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act shall be deemed resolved when the Board of Directors of the Company determines that governing Federal authority has specifically resolved the issue. If it is determined by the Board of Directors of the Company that the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements are permissible, the Company shall resume paying the premiums with respect to policies still in force, and the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements shall continue with respect thereto, including the Company's obligations to reimburse Employee with respect to certain tax costs. If it is determined by the Board of Directors of the Company that the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements are not permissible: (i) the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements shall be deemed to be terminated; (ii) the Company shall not be obligated to pay any additional premiums or other amounts with respect to the Existing Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements; (iii) the Company shall be entitled to receive the premiums that it has paid on the policies; and (iv) Employee shall be entitled to receive the remaining interest in the policies, if any. (d) To the extent that any Payment (as such term is defined in Schedule II to the Current Employment Agreement) made on or prior to the Effective Date is or was determined (as provided in the following sentence) to be subject to the Excise Tax (as such term is defined in Schedule II to the Current Employment Agreement) imposed by Section 4999 (as such term is defined in Schedule II to the Current Employment Agreement), Employee shall be entitled to the benefits and protections set forth in Schedule II of the Current Employment Agreement, which is incorporated herein by this reference to the same extent as if set forth in this Agreement in its entirety. Notwithstanding any provision in Schedule II to the Current Employment Agreement to the contrary, the determination that any Payment made on or prior to the Effective Date is or was subject to the Excise Tax shall be established only by a final determination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") that such Payment is or was subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and that such Payment was actually made by the Employee. Further, Employee agrees to provide written notice of such IRS determination (and other IRS actions related hereto) to the Company within ten (10) days of receipt, and the Company, in its discretion, may challenge such IRS determination. If the Company determines to challenge such IRS determination, Employee agrees to provide full cooperation with the Company in order to effectuate such challenge. 3. Current Stock Options and other Equity Awards. (a) On the Effective Date, Employee will surrender to the Company for cancellation and without any additional consideration all options to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock ("Common Shares") that were granted to Employee by the Company (or its predecessor) at any time from and after May 31, 1998 (collectively, the "Cancelled Stock Options"). The Company and Employee agree that, prior to such cancellation, the Cancelled Stock Options represent the right to acquire, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, an 3 aggregate of seventeen million fifty-five thousand four hundred thirteen (17,055,413) Common Shares. (b) As of the Effective Date, and without any further action required on the part of the Company or Employee, all stock options held by Employee as of the Effective Date other than the Cancelled Stock Options shall immediately vest in full and shall become fully exercisable for their full term. (c) Subject to receiving the requisite stockholder approval, the Company shall cause the Company's 1994 Stock Incentive Plan (the "SIP") to be amended (the "SIP Amendment") to provide for awards of restricted stock, such amendment to be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Company will schedule an annual or special stockholders' meeting of the Company to occur as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date (the "Stockholder Meeting"); provided, however, the parties acknowledge that the SIP Amendment will not be submitted for stockholder approval at the informational stockholder meeting expected to be scheduled in either November or December of 2002. At the Stockholder Meeting, the Company shall submit the SIP Amendment for stockholder approval. On the date of the Stockholder Meeting or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the Company shall either issue restricted stock or grant Stock Units (as such term is defined under the SIP) to Employee as follows (the date of such issuance or grant is referred to herein as the "Share Grant Date"): (i) if the SIP Amendment is approved by the requisite vote of the Company stockholders at the Stockholder Meeting, the Company shall issue five million two hundred seventy-four thousand five hundred and nineteen (5,274,519) shares of restricted stock under the SIP to the Employee in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Termination Restricted Stock Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B, such shares to be issued in certificates of such denominations as Employee may request; or (ii) If the SIP Amendment is not approved by the requisite vote of the Company stockholders at the Stockholder Meeting, the Company shall grant to Employee under the SIP (i) five million two hundred seventy-four thousand five hundred and nineteen (5,274,519) Stock Units and (ii) Dividend Equivalent Rights (as such term is defined under the SIP) representing the right to receive, if, when and as ordinary cash dividends are paid on the Company's Common Stock generally, an amount (of cash or other property) equal to the ordinary cash dividends that would be paid with respect to five million two hundred seventy-four thousand five hundred and nineteen (5,274,519) shares of the Company's Common Stock, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Termination Stock Unit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C. The Company represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, there are sufficient Common Shares available under the SIP to permit either of the grants described in (i) or (ii) above. Additionally, the Company represents and warrants that, as of the Share Grant 4 Date, there will be sufficient Common Shares available under the SIP to permit either of the grants described in (i) or (ii) above. (d) If the SIP Amendment is approved by the Company stockholders at the Stockholder Meeting, with respect to those shares of restricted stock granted in Section 3(c)(i) above for which Employee makes a valid election within 30 days after the Share Grant Date under Section 83(b) of the Code (the "83(b) Shares"), the Company shall pay Employee, within five business days after the Company's receipt from Employee of evidence of such valid election, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, an amount in cash (subject to applicable withholding) equal to X multiplied by Y multiplied by Z divided by W (the "83(b) Payment"), where: X is the number of 83(b) Shares; Y is the excess, if any, of the Maximum Share Price (as defined herein) over the Company Share Price (as defined herein) on the Effective Date; Z is equal to the difference between (i) the lowest Federal long term capital gain rate and (ii) the sum of the highest marginal Federal income tax rate and highest marginal income tax rate for state ordinary income applicable to a California resident (adjusted for any applicable state tax deduction under Federal income tax laws)(this calculation shall be determined using those rates applicable in the year of the Share Grant Date); and W is equal to (i) one (1) minus (ii) the amount equal to the sum of the highest marginal Federal income tax rate and highest marginal state income tax rate applicable to a California resident (adjusted for any applicable state tax deduction under Federal income tax laws)(this calculation shall be determined using those rates applicable in the year of the Share Grant Date). The "Company Share Price" on any date shall be the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the SIP) for one Common Share on such date. The "Trading Period" shall be the period beginning on the Effective Date until the close of business on the thirtieth Trading Day (as defined herein) following the Effective Date. The term "Trading Day" shall mean any day on which the Company's Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange on which such Company Common Stock is listed or admitted to trade; provided, however, that if the Company's Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trade on any national securities exchange, the term "Trading Day" shall mean any business day. The "Maximum Share Price" shall be the lesser of (i) the highest Company Share Price of any date within the Trading Period or (ii) the Company Share Price on the applicable Share Grant Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no payment shall be made under this Section 3(d) if the Company Share Price on the Effective Date exceeds the Maximum Share Price. To the extent Company makes any payments to satisfy any tax withholding obligation relating to the Section 83(b) election above prior to paying the 83(b) Payment, the 83(b) Payment (to the extent possible) shall be reduced by such payments made by the Company to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, and, except as 5 provided in the immediately following sentence, in no event shall Employee be required to reimburse the Company for such tax withholding obligation until the 83(b) Payment is made to Employee. If the 83(b) Payment is insufficient to repay such payments made by the Company to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, Employee shall pay the Company an amount in cash equal to the amount of deficiency on such date the 83(b) Payment would have been made (if not for the deduction of the prior sentence). (e) If the SIP Amendment is not approved by the Company stockholders, the Company shall pay Employee, on each Stock Unit vesting date, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, an amount in cash (subject to applicable withholdings) equal to X multiplied by Y multiplied by Z divided by W (the "Stock Unit Payment"), where: X is the number of Stock Units that vest on the applicable Stock Unit vesting date pursuant to the Termination Stock Unit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C; Y is the excess, if any, of the Maximum Share Price over the Company Share Price on the Effective Date; Z is equal to the difference between (i) the lowest Federal long term capital gain rate and (ii) the sum of the highest marginal Federal income tax rate and highest marginal income tax rate for state ordinary income applicable to a California resident (adjusted for any applicable state tax deduction available under Federal income tax laws)(this calculation shall be determined using those rates applicable in the year of the Stock Unit vesting date in question); and W is equal to (i) one (1) minus (ii) the amount equal to the sum of the highest marginal Federal income tax rate and highest marginal state income tax rate applicable to a California resident (adjusted for any applicable state tax deduction available under Federal income tax laws)(this calculation shall be determined using those rates applicable in the year of the Stock Unit vesting date in question). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no payment shall be made under this Section 3(e) if the Company Share Price on the Effective Date exceeds the Maximum Share Price. To the extent that the Company has any tax withholding obligation relating to the Stock Units (or payment of such Stock Units) that vest on the applicable Stock Unit vesting date, the Company may reduce (to the extent possible) the Stock Unit Payment to the extent of such tax withholding obligation and, except as provided in the immediately following sentence, in no event shall Employee be required to reimburse the Company for such tax withholding obligation until the Stock Unit Payment is made to Employee. If the Stock Unit Payment is insufficient to repay such payments made by the Company to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, Employee shall pay the Company an amount in cash equal to the amount of deficiency on such date the Stock Unit Payment would have been made (if not for the deduction of the prior sentence). To the extent any payments to be made under this Section 3(e) are accelerated due to Employee's employment terminating as provided in Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(d) or 4(f) of the New 6 Employment Agreement, such payments shall be contingent on Employee (or, if deceased, his estate's legal representative) signing a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company which shall be substantially similar to Exhibit D. (f) The number and type of shares set forth above with respect to any restricted stock, Stock Units or Dividend Equivalent Rights (the "Equity Awards") provided under this Section 3, and applicable share prices for purposes of Sections 3(d) and 3(e), shall be proportionately adjusted by the Company to the extent (if any) necessary to account for, and preserve the intended level of benefits following, any extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution in respect of the outstanding Common Shares (to the extent paid in the form of Common Shares or other equity securities), or any recapitalization, stock split (including a stock split in the form of a stock dividend), reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, combination, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, exchange of Common Shares, or similar extraordinary event, in each case to the extent such event affects the outstanding Common Shares. (g) Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the Termination Restricted Stock Agreement, Termination Stock Unit Agreement or SIP to the contrary, no Equity Awards shall be granted under this Section 3 after any (i) termination of Employee's employment pursuant to Sections 4(c) or 4(g) of the New Employment Agreement prior to the grant of such Equity Awards, or (ii) occurrence of any Breach Event (as defined below) which (if capable of cure) has not (together with all effects thereof) been fully cured by Employee within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Company of such Breach Event (the "Breach Cure Period"); provided, however, no Equity Awards shall be granted during any Breach Cure Period (but if all Breach Events are cured during the corresponding Breach Cure Periods, any Equity Awards scheduled to be granted during such Breach Cure Periods shall be deemed to have been granted as of the scheduled grant date); provided, further, no Equity Awards shall be granted during any For Cause Determination Period (as defined in the New Employment Agreement) (but, in the event that the Company Board determines no termination for Cause has occurred or Employee is successful in challenging any purported termination under Section 4(c) of the New Employment Agreement, any Equity Awards scheduled to be granted during such For Cause Determination Period shall be deemed to have been granted as of the scheduled grant date). The term "Breach Event" shall mean any (i) material breach by Employee of Section 12 of this Agreement, (ii) breach by Employee of any representation or warranty contained in Section 15 of this Agreement, or (iii) material breach by Employee of Sections 6, 8, 10(h) or 10(i) of the New Employment Agreement. The determination that a Breach Event has occurred shall be made by the Company Board and following such determination, written notice of such Breach Event shall be provided to Employee by the Company Board or any proper officer of the Company. Employee agrees that, in his capacity as a Company Board member, he shall not vote on such a determination nor shall he vote on any Company Board determination that a Breach Event (as such term is defined in Elsie Leung's termination agreement with the Company of even date hereof) has occurred with respect to Elsie Leung. Any disputes related to this Section 3(g) shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10(f) of the New Employment Agreement. (h) Subject to Section 3(g) above, if Employee's employment under the New Employment Agreement terminates under Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(d) or 4(f) thereof prior to the granting of any Equity Awards required to be granted hereunder, such Equity Awards not yet 7 granted shall be granted to the Employee as provided in Section 3(c) and shall be immediately vested in full upon grant. (i) In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the agreement evidencing any Equity Award, the terms and conditions of the agreement evidencing such Equity Award shall govern. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the SIP, the terms and conditions of the SIP shall govern. (j) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, to the extent any Equity Award required hereunder is made on a post-employment basis (such basis being with respect to Employee), the granting of such Equity Award, to the extent required by applicable law, shall be contingent upon the recipient making a valid representation that such recipient is an accredited investor under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. (k) With respect to any Equity Awards issued to Employee pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent the Company is eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8, the Company shall take all steps reasonably necessary to maintain the effectiveness of the Company's current Registration Statements on Form S-8. 4. Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Employee for (or pay directly at Employee's request) any and all fees, costs and other expenses incurred in connection with the events leading to and the negotiation of this Agreement (and the termination of the Current Employment Agreement as provided herein), the New Employment Agreement, that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Stockholders' Agreement of even date herewith by and among the Company, Employee and a stockholder of the Company (the "Stockholders' Agreement Amendment") (which amends the Stockholders' Agreement among the Company, Employee and certain stockholders of the Company dated October 4, 1999), or that certain Patent Rights Agreement of even date herewith between Employee and the Company (the "Patent Rights Agreement") or any other agreement referred to herein or therein; provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate amount paid by the Company pursuant to this Section 4, plus the amount paid pursuant to Section 4 of that certain Termination Agreement between the Company and Elsie Ma Leung, exceed $1,000,000, it being understood that any amount not paid as a result of such limitation shall be allocated between Employee and Ms. Leung in proportion to their respective requests for reimbursement. 5. Public Announcements and Press Releases. Employee shall have the right to review and approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, any press release or other public announcement made by the Company or any Subsidiary more or less contemporaneously with the execution hereof and relating to the matters addressed by this Agreement; provided, however, that the press release in the form of Exhibit E attached to this Agreement is hereby approved for joint public release by each of the parties to this Agreement. 6. Non-Disparagement. 8 (a) The Company will direct its directors and executive officers to not publicly disparage, denigrate or ridicule Employee in respect of Employee's integrity or business practices, performance, skills, acumen, experience or success, or concerning Employee personally; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6(a) shall prohibit the Company or any director or executive officer of the Company from disclosing such information as may be required by law, or by judicial or administrative process or order or the rules of any securities exchange or similar self-regulatory organization applicable to such person. The Company shall only be responsible for, and bear any and all liability, for, any breach of this Section 6(a) by any of its directors or executive officers (other than Elsie Ma Leung), if such breach is knowingly and willfully committed by any such director or executive officer in connection with such director's or executive officer's duties to the Company and involves a material public disparagement of Employee. (b) Employee will not publicly disparage, denigrate or ridicule the Company or its directors or executive officers in respect of their integrity or business practices, performance, skills, acumen, experience or success or concerning any directors or executive officers personally; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6(b) shall prohibit Employee from disclosing such information as may be required by law, or by judicial or administrative process or order or the rules of any securities exchange or similar self-regulatory organization applicable to such person. Employee shall only be responsible for, and bear any and all liability, for, any breach of this Section 6(b) if such breach is knowingly and willfully committed and involves a material public disparagement of the Company or its directors or executive officers. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall not be entitled to terminate, rescind, repudiate or seek judicial invalidation of this Agreement or any other agreement with the Company as a remedy for any breach or alleged breach of Section 6(a); provided, however, that, Employee shall be entitled to the remedy specified in Section 4(f) of the New Employment Agreement. 7. Mutual Releases. (a) Employee, on behalf of himself and his heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, hereby knowingly, voluntarily and irrevocably releases and discharges the Company and each Subsidiary, and any and all of their respective current and former officers, employees, agents, directors, legal representatives, attorneys and any successor or assign or predecessor of any of the foregoing, from any and all claims, charges, actions or causes of action any of them may have against any such released person, whether known or unknown, from the beginning of time through the Effective Date based upon any matter, cause or thing whatsoever related to or arising out of (1) Employee's employment with the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity prior to the Effective Date, (2) Employee's service as a director of the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity through the Effective Date, (3) any such released person's service to the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity through the Effective Date, (4) the termination of certain of Employee's positions with the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity as of or prior to the Effective Date as contemplated by this Agreement, (5) the events leading to the execution of, or the execution of, any of the Restructuring Agreements (as such term is defined in the Umbrella Agreement (as defined below)), or (6) except for 9 agreements and arrangements specified in the proviso to this sentence, any agreement or arrangement between Employee and any of the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or predecessor entity; provided, however, that this release shall not limit in any way or constitute a waiver of any rights or claims Employee may have (i) under this Agreement (or any Equity Award issued pursuant hereto), (ii) under the New Employment Agreement (or any equity award issued pursuant thereto), (iii) under the Stockholders' Agreement Amendment, (iv) under the Patent Rights Agreement, (v) under that certain Umbrella Agreement of even date herewith among Employee, Elsie Ma Leung and The News Corporation Limited (the "Umbrella Agreement"), (vi) under the Company's, GDC's or any other Subsidiary's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (or similar organizational documents), as such exist as of the date hereof, (vii) under any applicable insurance policy, (viii) for contribution as permitted by law in the event of entry of judgment against Employee as a result of any act or failure to act for which Employee and any other person are jointly liable, (ix) that arise from, or that are based on, events that occur after the Effective Date, (x) under any stock option, deferred compensation or other similar compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (xi) under any pension, retirement or welfare benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, all of which rights shall be preserved. (b) Except as set forth herein, the Company and GDC, on behalf of themselves and each other Subsidiary, and any successor or assign of any of the foregoing, hereby knowingly, voluntarily and irrevocably release and discharge Employee, his family, estate, legal representatives, agents, attorneys, heirs, executors, successors and assigns, and any entity controlled by Employee from any and all claims, charges, actions or causes of action any of them may have against any such released person, whether known or unknown, from the beginning of time through the Effective Date based upon any matter, cause or thing whatsoever related to or arising out of (1) Employee's employment with the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity prior to the Effective Date, (2) Employee's service as a director of the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity through the Effective Date, (3) the termination of certain of Employee's positions with the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or any predecessor entity as of or prior to the Effective Date as contemplated by this Agreement, (4) the events leading to the execution of, or the execution of, any of the Restructuring Agreements, or (5) except for agreements and arrangements specified in the proviso to this sentence, any agreement or arrangement between Employee and any of the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary or predecessor entity; provided, however, that this release shall not limit in any way or constitute a waiver of any rights or claims the Company, GDC or any Subsidiary may have (i) under this Agreement (or any Equity Award issued pursuant hereto), (ii) under the New Employment Agreement (or any equity award issued pursuant thereto), (iii) under the Stockholders' Agreement Amendment, (iv) under the Patent Rights Agreement, (v) under the Umbrella Agreement, (vi) for contribution as permitted by law in the event of entry of judgment against the Company, GDC or any other Subsidiary as a result of any act or failure to act for which the Company or any such Subsidiary and any other person are jointly liable, or (vii) that arise from, or that are based on, events that occur after the Effective Date, all of which rights shall be preserved. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to release or discharge any rights or claims the Company has or may have against Employee arising under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. 8. Waiver. 10 The parties expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits afforded by Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California with respect to the releases provided herein, and do so understanding and acknowledging the significance of such specific waiver of Section 1542. Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California states as follows: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1542, and for the purpose of implementing the releases provided herein, the parties expressly acknowledge that this Agreement is intended to include in its effect, without limitation other than the express limitations set forth herein, all claims which either party does not know or suspect to exist in such party's favor at the time of execution hereof, and that this Agreement contemplates the extinguishment of any such claims. The parties acknowledge and agree that the foregoing waiver of the provisions of Section 1542 has been expressly bargained for by each of the parties in the negotiation of this Agreement. 9. Covenant Not to Sue. Each party represents and covenants that such party has not filed any complaints, charges or lawsuits, nor commenced any arbitration or similar proceedings, against any other party with respect to any claim or potential claim released hereunder, and covenants that such party will not do so at any time hereafter, it being understood that this Section 9 shall not prohibit any party from commencing appropriate proceedings for the purpose of enforcing any claims not released hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way be construed as an admission by any party that it or any affiliated entity has acted wrongfully or that any party in fact has any rights whatsoever against any other party. 10. Indemnification. (a) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company and GDC shall, and shall cause each other Subsidiary to, indemnify Employee, defend Employee and hold Employee harmless from and against any and all: (i) claims, liabilities, injuries, judgments, fines, interest, legal expenses, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, costs of investigation and experts, and court reporter fees), settlements and other amounts incurred or suffered by Employee in connection with or relating to the defense or resolution of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding or investigation (and in connection with any appeal with respect thereto), whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative (including, without limitation, actions, suits, proceedings and investigations brought by or in the name of the Company or related person or entity or stockholder), or otherwise ("Expenses"), arising by reason of Employee's status, action or inaction, including, without limitation, actual or alleged errors or omissions, as an officer, director, employee, agent or stockholder of the Company, 11 GDC, any other Subsidiary or any other affiliate of the Company prior to the Effective Date, so long as (A) Employee's conduct was in good faith, (B) Employee reasonably believed such conduct to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and (C) Employee's conduct was not in violation of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 15 below; or (ii) legal expenses and costs (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, costs of investigation and experts and court reporter fees) and other amounts incurred or suffered by Employee in connection with or relating to the defense or resolution of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding or investigation (and in connection with any appeal with respect thereto), whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative (including, without limitation, actions, suits, proceedings and investigations (a) brought by or in the name of the Company or related person or entity or stockholder or (b) pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act), or otherwise, arising as a result of the execution of this Agreement (or any equity award issued pursuant hereto) or the execution of the New Employment Agreement (or any equity award issued pursuant thereto), the Stockholders' Agreement Amendment and the Patent Rights Agreement. (b) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall promptly advance to Employee any and all expenses actually incurred by Employee in defending any and all actions, suits, proceedings or investigations or in preparing to defend any threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each case for which Employee is indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10(a). The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to Employee within ten (10) days following delivery of a written request for payment therefor by Employee to the Company. Employee shall have a right to select attorneys to defend him in any actual or threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation, subject to the Company's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in (i) the class action lawsuits pending against Employee, the Company and others as of the Effective Date, (ii) any future stockholder lawsuits are brought naming Employee as a defendant, and (iii) any investigation, inquiry or request for information, formal or informal, by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental entity or any self-regulatory organization, including without limitation, NASD, the Company shall, to the extent (1) permitted by applicable law and (2) Employee is indemnified by the Company pursuant to Section 10(a), directly pay or cause a Subsidiary to pay (rather than advance to Employee or reimburse Employee for) all expenses, including the fees and expenses of separate counsel for Employee, regardless of whether counsel for the Company or for any other party has agreed or offered to, or is in fact, representing Employee in such lawsuit. (c) [Reserved] (d) The Company shall maintain a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy (or policies) providing coverage until the later of (x) the sixth anniversary of the date on which Employee ceases to be a director or employee of the Company and (y) the date on which all claims against Employee that would otherwise be covered by such policy (or policies) become fully time-barred, providing coverage to Employee that is no less favorable to him in any respect (including, without limitation, with respect to scope, exclusions, amounts, and deductibles) than 12 the coverage then being provided to any other present or former senior executive or director of the Company. (e) The indemnification, defense and hold harmless provided pursuant to this Section 10 shall continue even after Employee has ceased to be an officer, director, employee, agent or stockholder of the Company, and the rights and benefits thereof shall inure to the benefit of Employee's heirs, executors and administrators. Employee shall not be responsible for reimbursement of any expenses paid, reimbursed or advanced pursuant to this Section 10 except to the extent required by applicable law. (f) The parties acknowledge that, in addition to the rights provided in this Section 10, Employee has certain indemnification, defense and hold harmless rights as well as certain rights to be reimbursed for, or have the Company or a Subsidiary advance or pay, certain costs and expenses under other agreements and instruments, including, without limitation, the Certificates of Incorporation and Bylaws (or similar organizational documents) of the Company and certain of its Subsidiaries, the New Employment Agreement, the Stockholders' Agreement Amendment and the Patent Rights Agreement. Such rights are intended to be cumulative and the existence of any such right shall not limit or restrict in any way any other such right, and Employee shall have the right to pursue his rights of indemnification, defense, and hold harmless or seek reimbursement for, or advances or payment of, costs and expenses under any or all of such agreements and instruments and shall be entitled to the maximum benefits provided under such agreements and instruments. (g) Notwithstanding any other provision, this Section 10 shall not apply to disputes between Employee and the Company with respect to any alleged breach of, or seeking an interpretation of, or a determination of the rights or obligations of either party under, this Agreement, the New Employment Agreement, the Patent Rights Agreement or the Umbrella Agreement, which shall be resolved (i) as provided in Section 13 in the case of this Agreement and (ii) by the terms of such agreement, in the case of the New Employment Agreement, the Patent Rights Agreement and the Umbrella Agreement. 11. Wire Transfers; No Offset. All payments to be made to Employee hereunder shall be made by wire transfer in accordance with such wire transfer instructions as Employee may provide to the Company (or if Employee has not provided wire transfer instructions to the Company prior to the date any payment is due, by corporate check). The Company may not make any offset against amounts due to Employee under this Agreement, on account of any claim the Company may have against him. 12. Inventions and Patents. (a) As used in this Section 12, the following terms have the meanings indicated: (i) "Assigned Intellectual Property" means, collectively, all Developed Inventions and all Developed Intellectual Property other than Employee Intellectual Property. 13 (ii) "Developed Inventions" means all inventions (whether or not patentable) and all embodiments of such inventions, developments, concepts, know-how, technology, ideas, methods, techniques, products or processes, which Employee solely or jointly made, conceived of or reduced to practice (as those terms have been interpreted by the Federal Courts in connection with the Patent Act (35 U.S.C. Sections 101 et. seq.)) prior to the Effective Date and any works of authorship that Employee authored prior to the Effective Date. (iii) "Developed Intellectual Property" means (x) all patents or patent applications or other proprietary rights arising from any Developed Inventions, (y) any other proprietary or intellectual property rights with respect to which Employee is an inventor, creator or author prior to the Effective Date, and (z) all other proprietary or intellectual property rights owned or controlled as of the Effective Date by Employee directly or indirectly through an entity owned or controlled by Employee. (iv) "Employee Intellectual Property" means, collectively, the Developed Inventions and the Developed Intellectual Property that Employee (x) specifically identifies by patent number, patent application serial number or other information sufficient to uniquely identify the intellectual property right on Schedule B hereto or (y) can establish does not relate in whole or in part to the Restricted Fields or other aspects of the Company's business as conducted prior to or as of the Effective Date. (v) "Restricted Fields" means the fields of Interactive Television or Interactive Program Guides (as such terms are defined in the Patent Rights Agreement). (b) The Company and Employee agree that the U.S. and foreign patents, patent applications, and invention disclosures listed on Schedule A hereto are Assigned Intellectual Property. All Assigned Intellectual Property shall belong exclusively to the Company, and, to the extent not previously conveyed and assigned to the Company, Employee agrees to assign, and hereby conveys and assigns to the Company all of Employee's right, title and interest in and to all Assigned Intellectual Property, together with the right to sue for past infringement or misappropriation thereof, including, without limitation, all of Employee's right, title and interest in and to the U.S. and foreign patents, patent applications, and invention disclosures listed in Schedule A attached hereto. The Company shall have the exclusive right to direct and control all future prosecution of any patent or other applications or registrations, domestic and foreign, for protection of any and all Assigned Intellectual Property, including that which is not the subject of an application or registration for intellectual property protection as of the Effective Date. (c) Employee believes that the Developed Inventions and the Developed Intellectual Property listed in Schedule B attached hereto are Employee Intellectual Property. Schedule B shall be supplemented from time to time with such additional Developed Inventions and such additional Developed Intellectual Property as may be identified by Employee from time to time which Employee is able to establish do not relate in whole or in part to the Restricted Fields. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as acknowledgment or acquiescence by the Company that any Developed Inventions and Developed Intellectual Property identified in Schedule B are Employee Intellectual Property. Schedule B is not binding on the Company and the Company shall have the right to challenge the inclusion of any Developed Inventions or any 14 Developed Intellectual Property listed therein. Any disputes relating to the contents of Schedule B shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures of Section 14. (d) As soon as practicable after the Effective Date and in any event within thirty days following the Effective Date, Employee shall identify and disclose to the Company any Developed Inventions and any Developed Intellectual Property that have not previously been disclosed to the Company, such written disclosure to be in as much detail as is reasonably necessary to identify such Developed Inventions and Developed Intellectual Property. All such disclosures shall be made solely on a "need to know" basis to such legal and other professional advisors reasonably identified by the Company as may be necessary to determine the proper allocation of Developed Inventions and the Developed Intellectual Property between Assigned Intellectual Property and Employee Intellectual Property, provided such legal and other professional advisors reasonably identified by the Company have first executed a nondisclosure agreement reasonably acceptable to Employee. Employee shall continue to be obligated to disclose to the Company any Developed Inventions and any Developed Intellectual Property even after the expiration of such thirty day period, such follow-up disclosures being provided to the Company as promptly as reasonably possible upon such information being available to Employee. The disclosure to the Company of Developed Inventions and Developed Intellectual Property pursuant to the this Section 12(d) shall be for the sole and exclusive purpose of determining the Company's rights therein, if any, pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company shall not use any such disclosure for any other purpose whatsoever. (e) Employee shall consult with the Company as reasonably necessary to confirm that all Developed Inventions are disclosed to the Company in sufficient detail to enable one of ordinary skill in the art to practice any inventions, developments, concepts, know-how, technology, ideas, methods, techniques, products or processes contained therein. From and after the Effective Date, Employee shall (i) take all actions reasonably requested by the Company and make all further assurances reasonably warranted to confirm that the Company is the exclusive owner of all Assigned Intellectual Property, all at the Company's sole cost and expense, and (ii) shall provide all reasonable assistance in obtaining, perfecting or enforcing the Assigned Intellectual Property or any legal rights in and to the same in any administrative agency or court, domestic or foreign including, but not limited to, reviewing and signing all lawful declarations, oaths, affidavits and other documents in connection with any of the foregoing, all at the Company's sole cost and expense. (f) Employee acknowledges hereby receipt of written notice from the Company pursuant to California Labor Code Section 2872 that this Agreement (to the extent it requires an assignment or offer to assign rights to any invention of Employee) does not apply to an Developed Intellectual Property that qualifies fully under California Labor Code Section 2870. (g) Employee represents and warrants that (i) except for the disclosures to be made as provided in Section 12(d), (x) there are no U.S. or foreign patents, patent applications or invention disclosures included in the Developed Intellectual Property and related to the business of the Company that have not been disclosed to the Company, and (y) to Employee's knowledge, there are no Developed Inventions or other Developed Intellectual Property material to the business of the Company that have not been disclosed to the Company, (ii) he has not previously conveyed any rights in the Assigned Intellectual Property to any third party, including any 15 ownership rights or rights to use the Assigned Intellectual Property, (iii) there are no agreements to which he or his property are bound that are inconsistent with this Agreement or that would limit his ability to assign the Assigned Intellectual Property to the Company free and clear of any liens or encumbrances of any kind, (iv) the Assigned Intellectual Property is free and clear of any liens or encumbrances (other than liens created by the Company and its subsidiaries) and (v) except as set forth in Schedule A or Schedule B, all U.S. and foreign patents, patent applications and invention disclosures included in the Developed Inventions and Developed Intellectual Property have been previously assigned to the Company. 13. Resolutions of Disputes. In the event of any dispute, controversy, claim or disagreement between Employee and the Company with respect to any alleged breach of this Agreement, the interpretation of this Agreement, or the rights or obligations of either party under this Agreement, the parties shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a solution satisfactory to both parties. If they do not resolve the dispute, controversy, claim or disagreement within a period of 30 days, or such longer period as they may mutually agree, then such dispute, controversy, claim or disagreement shall be resolved pursuant to confidential binding arbitration in New York, New York by a panel of three neutral arbitrators. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Within 15 days after the initiation of arbitration, the parties shall select three neutral arbitrators, all of whom shall be members of a state bar actively engaged in the practice of law for at least 10 years. Either party may seek interim or preliminary relief from the arbitrators until an arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either party also may, prior to the establishment of the arbitral tribunal, and without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party. The arbitration award shall be made as promptly as practicable and in any event within nine months of the filing of the notice of intention to arbitrate, and the arbitrators shall agree to comply with this schedule before accepting appointment; provided, however, that this time limit may be extended by agreement of the parties or by the arbitrators if necessary. The award of the arbitrators shall be in writing, shall be signed by a majority of the arbitrators, and shall include findings of fact and the reasons for the disposition of each claim. In the award, the arbitrators shall allocate all of the costs of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators and the reasonable attorneys' fees of the prevailing party, against the non-prevailing party. This Section 13 shall not be construed to limit either party's right to obtain equitable relief with respect to any dispute and, pending a final arbitration by the arbitrators with respect to any such disputes, either party shall be entitled to obtain any such relief by direct application to state, federal or other applicable court, without being required to first arbitrate such dispute. Except as may be required by law, or by judicial or administrative process or order or the rules of any securities exchange or similar self-regulatory organization applicable to the party or arbitrator, neither the parties nor the arbitrators may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the parties. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In connection with any dispute as to whether any Developed Invention or any Developed Intellectual Property is Employee Intellectual Property or Assigned Intellectual Property, as such terms are defined in Section 12, discovery shall be on an expedited basis, the 16 decision of the arbitration panel shall be final and there shall be no right of appeal or right to petition to vacate such award. 14.

W I T N E S S E T H WHEREAS, pursuant to the Gemstar-TV Guide International, Inc. 1994 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the "SIP"), the Company has granted to Employee effective as of the date hereof (i) five million two hundred seventy four thousand five hundred nineteen (5,274,519) shares of restricted stock under the SIP and (ii) the right to receive dividends on such restricted stock, if, when and as dividends are paid on the shares of Common Stock generally, in each case, upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the SIP. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants made herein and the mutual benefits to be derived herefrom, the parties agree as follows: 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms shall have the meaning assigned to them herein. Where capitalized terms are not defined herein they shall have the meaning assigned to them in the SIP. For purposes of this Agreement: "Breach Event" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the Termination Agreement. "Breach Cure Period" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the Termination Agreement. "Effective Date" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the New Employment Agreement. "For Cause Determination Period" shall have the meaning assigned to it under the New Employment Agreement. "New Employment Agreement" shall mean the employment agreement between the Company and Employee dated as of _________, 2002. "Termination Agreement" shall mean the termination agreement between the Company, Employee and Gemstar Development Corporation, a California corporation, dated as of _______, 2002. 2. Grant of Restricted Stock. Effective as of the date hereof, the Company hereby grants to Employee, subject to the vesting provisions and restrictions set forth below, five million two hundred seventy four thousand five hundred nineteen (5,274,519) shares of restricted stock (the "Grant Shares") under the SIP. 1 On behalf of himself and on behalf of his beneficiaries, estate and permitted assigns, Employee agrees: (i) to the terms, provisions and restrictions provided by this Agreement on any Restricted Property (as defined below) received with respect to the Grant Shares; and (ii) that Employee (or his beneficiaries, estate and permitted assigns) will not vote (nor assign, pledge or transfer the right to vote to any other party in any manner) with respect to the Grant Shares until such Grant Shares are vested. Employee shall have the right to receive ordinary cash dividends (if, when and as ordinary cash dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock generally) with respect to any unforfeited Grant Shares held under this Agreement. Employee shall have the right to receive any securities or other property (if, when and as such securities or properties are paid on shares of Common Stock generally) as a result of any dividend or other distribution (other than ordinary cash dividends), conversion or exchange with respect to any unforfeited Grant Shares held under this Agreement (such securities or other property shall be referred to herein as "Restricted Property"); provided, however, that such Restricted Property received with respect to such Grant Shares shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent Restricted Property is received with respect of the Grant Shares, the Restricted Property will be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement to the same extent as the Grant Shares to which such securities or other property relate and shall be held and accumulated for the benefit of Employee, but subject to such risks (including, but not limited to, the risk of forfeiture). The Company shall issue a certificate or certificates for the Grant Shares, registered in the name of Employee, which certificate(s) shall be held by the Company until such Grant Shares shall have become vested or forfeited in accordance with this Agreement. The certificate(s) representing Grant Shares forfeited in accordance with this Agreement and any shares accumulated thereon and any other cash, rights or property (including Restricted Property) accumulated in respect thereof shall, upon such forfeiture, automatically revert to the Company. The certificate(s) representing Grant Shares (before such shares shall have become vested) shall bear the following legends and/or any other appropriate or required legends under applicable laws: "OWNERSHIP OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AND ANY INTEREST THEREIN ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER UNDER APPLICABLE LAW AND UNDER AN AGREEMENT WITH THE CORPORATION, INCLUDING RESTRICTIONS ON SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION, A COPY OF WHICH IS AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW AT THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION." To the extent that a certificate evidencing the Grant Shares or any related Restricted Property is delivered to Employee prior to the vesting of such Grant Shares, Employee shall promptly redeliver such certificate(s) to the Company to be held by the Company pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon the occurrence of any forfeiture of Grant Shares (including any related Restricted Property), such forfeited Grant Shares (and related Restricted Property) shall be automatically transferred to the 2 Company, without any other action by Employee, or Employee's Personal Representative or Beneficiary, as the case may be. The Company may take any other action necessary or advisable to evidence such transfer. Employee, or Employee's Personal Representative or Beneficiary, as the case may be, shall deliver any additional documents of transfer that the Company may reasonably request to confirm such transfer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Employee, by execution of this Agreement, shall be deemed to appoint the Company and each of its authorized representatives as Employee's attorney(s)-in-fact to effect any such transfer of unvested Grant Shares (and any related Restricted Property) and to execute such documents as the Company or such representatives deem necessary or advisable in connection with any such transfer. Promptly after the vesting of the Grant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof, a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of Grant Shares that have vested shall be delivered to Employee (or, in the event of his death or disability, Employee's Personal Representative or Beneficiary). Employee or such other person shall deliver to the Company any representations or other documents or assurances required pursuant to Section 4.4 of the SIP. Employee shall not sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise alienate or hypothecate the Grant Shares or any Restricted Property in respect thereof until such Grant Shares are vested. Any sale or transfer, or purported sale or transfer, shall be null and void. In the event that the Company determines that the Company (or any affiliate or subsidiary of Company) is required to withhold any tax as a result of the issuance, vesting, payment or disposition of any Grant Shares, the tax withholding obligation shall be satisfied in accordance with the provisions and terms of Section 4.5 of the SIP. 3. Vesting of Grant Shares. The Grant Shares shall vest as follows: (i) one million seven hundred fifty eight thousand one hundred seventy three (1,758,173) Grant Shares shall vest on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, (ii) one million seven hundred fifty eight thousand one hundred seventy three (1,758,173) Grant Shares shall vest on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, and (iii) one million seven hundred fifty eight thousand one hundred seventy three (1,758,173) Grant Shares shall vest on the third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that no Grant Shares shall vest after any (i) termination of Employee's employment pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(g) of the New Employment Agreement, or (ii) occurrence of any Breach Event which (if capable of cure) has not (together with all effects thereof) been fully cured by Employee within the Breach Cure Period; provided, further, that no Grant Shares shall vest during any Breach Cure Period (but if all Breach Events are cured during the corresponding Breach Cure Periods, any unvested Grant Shares scheduled to vest during such Breach Cure Periods shall be deemed to have vested as of the scheduled vesting date); provided, further, no Grant Shares shall vest during any For Cause Determination Period (but, in the event that the Company Board determines no termination for Cause has occurred or 3 Employee is successful in challenging any purported termination under Section 4(c) of the New Employment Agreement, any Grant Shares scheduled to vest during such For Cause Determination Period shall be deemed to have vested as of the scheduled vesting date); and provided, further, and subject to the foregoing paragraphs, that if Employee's employment under the New Employment Agreement terminates as provided in Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(d) or 4(f) of the New Employment Agreement, the Grant Shares shall be vested at such termination provided Employee (or, if deceased, his estate's legal representative) signs a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company which shall be substantially similar to Exhibit D of the Termination Agreement. 4. Continuance of Employment Required; No Employment Commitment. The vesting schedule requires continued service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to the vesting of the applicable installment of the Grant Shares and the rights and benefits under this Agreement. Service for less than the full portion of any vesting period, even if substantial, will not entitle Employee to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services as provided herein or under the SIP. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the SIP constitutes an employment commitment by the Company, affects the termination provisions of Section 4 of the New Employment Agreement, confers upon Employee any right to remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate Employee's employment, or affects the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease Employee's other compensation. 5. Forfeiture. All Grant Shares then unvested shall be automatically terminated and forfeited upon any (i) termination of Employee's employment pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(g) of the New Employment Agreement, or (ii) occurrence of any Breach Event which (if capable of cure) has not (together with all effects thereof) been fully cured by Employee within the Breach Cure Period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that Employee is successful in challenging any purported termination under Section 4(c) of the New Employment Agreement, any unvested Grant Shares that terminated due to such purported termination shall be deemed reinstated and vested upon the conclusion of such successful challenge. 6. Change in Control Event. All Grant Shares shall be subject to immediate vesting upon the occurrence of: (i) a Change in Control Event (as defined below); and (ii) the Company has not provided for either (A) the cash-out of such Grant Shares at their then fair market value, or (B) the continuation of such Grant Shares in an economically equivalent amount (e.g. replacement shares of restricted stock, options or stock units, based on a successor company's stock, provided that such replacement award will have substantially similar terms and conditions as the Grant Shares immediately prior to the Change in Control Event). 4 The term "Change in Control Event" shall have the meaning assigned to such term under SIP Section 5; provided, however, that the measurement period for determining a "Change in Control Event" under SIP Section 5.1(f)(5) shall not include the one-year period after the Effective Date and such measurement period shall only commence upon the first anniversary of the Effective Date. 7. Termination of Grant Shares Under Certain Events. As contemplated by Section 4.2 of the SIP, the Grant Shares may be terminated in certain circumstances, as described therein. 8. Non-Transferability of Grant Shares. Unvested Grant Shares and any other rights of Employee under this Agreement or the SIP are nontransferable and subject to extensive restrictions under Section 1.9 of the SIP and as set forth herein. The Grant Shares are also subject to restrictions on transfer under Section 1.10 of the SIP and to any and all repurchase or redemption rights of the Company that may be provided under its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as amended from time to time. 9. Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Company at its principal office and to Employee at the addresses given beneath their respective signatures hereon, or at such other address as either party may hereafter designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be deemed given only when received, but if Employee is no longer an Eligible Person, any notice to Employee shall be deemed to have been duly given when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope addressed as aforesaid, registered or certified, and deposited (postage and registry or certification fee prepaid) in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Government. 10. Plan. The Grant Shares and all rights of Employee thereunder are subject to, and Employee agrees to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the provisions of the SIP, incorporated herein by this reference. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the terms and conditions of the SIP, the terms and conditions of the SIP shall govern except as expressly set forth herein. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and the terms and conditions of the Termination Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern. Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the SIP, which is made a part hereof by this reference, and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof. Unless otherwise expressly provided in other Sections of this Agreement, provisions of the SIP that confer discretionary authority on the Committee do not (and shall not be deemed to) create any rights in Employee, unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole discretion of the Committee so conferred by appropriate action of the Committee under the SIP after the date hereof. 11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the New Employment Agreement, the Termination Agreement and the SIP together constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, written or oral, of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. The SIP and this Agreement may be amended pursuant to Section 4.6 of the SIP. Such amendment must be in writing and signed by the Company. The Company may, however, unilaterally waive any provision hereof in writing to the extent such waiver does not adversely affect the interests of Employee, but no such waiver shall operate as or be construed to be a subsequent waiver of the same provision or a waiver of any other provision hereof. 5 12. Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any statute or public policy, then only the portions of this Agreement which violate such statute or public policy shall be stricken, and all portions of this Agreement which do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, it is the parties' intent that any court order striking any portion of this Agreement should modify the terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties' under this Agreement. 13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California. 14. No Restriction on Corporate Powers. The existence of the SIP and/or the Grant Shares shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company's capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks ahead of or affecting the Company's capital stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding. 15. Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable and diligent best efforts to proceed promptly with the transactions contemplated herein, to fulfill the conditions precedent for such party's benefit or to cause the same to be fulfilled and to execute such further documents and other papers and perform such further acts as may be reasonably required or desirable to carry out the provisions hereof and the transactions contemplated herein. 6 16. Execution. The grant of Grant Shares hereunder shall be rendered ineffective if Employee and spouse fail to execute this Agreement (with Consent of Spouse) and return the executed Agreement (with Consent of Spouse) to the Company within 30 days of the date hereof. 17. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment hereto may be executed in several counterparts. All of such counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement and shall become effective when a copy signed by each party has been delivered to the other party.

Employee shall have no voting rights with respect to the Grant Shares until such Grant Shares are vested. Employee shall not sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise alienate or hypothecate the Grant Shares. Any sale or transfer, or purported sale or transfer, shall be null and void. If, when and as ordinary cash dividends are paid on shares of Common Stock generally, Employee shall be paid DERs equivalent to the ordinary cash dividends that would be paid with respect to Z shares of Common Stock where "Z" is the number of the unvested (and unforfeited) Grant Shares at the time of such ordinary cash dividend payment. Any DERs provided under this Agreement shall be paid in cash, shares of Common Stock or other Awards as may be determined by the Committee.

Vesting of Grant Shares. The Grant Shares shall vest as follows: (i) one million seven hundred fifty eight thousand one hundred seventy three (1,758,173) Grant Shares shall vest on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, (ii) one million seven hundred fifty eight thousand one hundred seventy three (1,758,173) Grant Shares shall vest on the second anniversary of the Effective Date, and (iii) one million seven hundred fifty eight thousand one hundred seventy three (1,758,173) Grant Shares shall vest on the third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that no Grant Shares shall vest after any (i) termination of Employee's employment pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(g) of the New Employment Agreement, or (ii) occurrence of any Breach Event which (if capable of cure) has not (together with all effects thereof) been fully cured by Employee within the Breach Cure Period; provided, further, that no Grant Shares shall vest during any Breach Cure Period (but if all Breach Events are cured during the corresponding Breach Cure Periods, any unvested Grant Shares scheduled to vest during such Breach Cure Periods shall be deemed to have vested as of the scheduled vesting date); provided, further, no Grant Shares shall vest during any For Cause Determination Period (but, in the event that the Company Board determines no termination for Cause has occurred or Employee is successful in challenging any purported termination under Section 4(c) of the New Employment Agreement, any Grant Shares scheduled to vest during such For Cause Determination Period shall be deemed to have vested as of the scheduled vesting date); and 2 provided, further, and subject to the foregoing paragraphs, that if Employee's employment under the New Employment Agreement terminates as provided in Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(d) or 4(f) of the New Employment Agreement, the Grant Shares shall be vested at such termination provided Employee (or, if deceased, his estate's legal representative) signs a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company which shall be substantially similar to Exhibit D of the Termination Agreement. 4. Continuance of Employment Required; No Employment Commitment. The vesting schedule requires continued service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to the vesting of the applicable installment of the Grant Shares and the rights and benefits under this Agreement. Service for less than the full portion of any vesting period, even if substantial, will not entitle Employee to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services as provided herein or under the SIP. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the SIP constitutes an employment commitment by the Company, affects the termination provisions of Section 4 of the New Employment Agreement, confers upon Employee any right to remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate Employee's employment, or affects the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease Employee's other compensation. 5. Forfeiture. All Grant Shares then unvested shall be automatically terminated and forfeited upon any (i) termination of Employee's employment pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 4(g) of the New Employment Agreement, or (ii) occurrence of any Breach Event which (if capable of cure) has not (together with all effects thereof) been fully cured by Employee within the Breach Cure Period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that Employee is successful in challenging any purported termination under Section 4(c) of the New Employment Agreement, any unvested Grant Shares that terminated due to such purported termination shall be deemed reinstated and vested upon the conclusion of such successful challenge. 6. Change in Control Event. All Grant Shares shall be subject to immediate vesting upon the occurrence of: (i) a Change in Control Event (as defined below); and (ii) the Company has not provided for either (A) the cash-out of such Grant Shares at their then fair market value, or (B) the continuation of such Grant Shares in an economically equivalent amount (e.g. replacement shares of restricted stock, options or stock units, based on a successor company's stock, provided that such replacement award will have substantially similar terms and conditions as the Grant Shares immediately prior to the Change in Control Event). The term "Change in Control Event" shall have the meaning assigned to such term under SIP Section 5; provided, however, that the measurement period for determining a "Change in Control 3 Event" under SIP Section 5.1(f)(5) shall not include the one-year period after the Effective Date and such measurement period shall only commence upon the first anniversary of the Effective Date. 7.

Plan. The Grant Shares, DERs and all rights of Employee thereunder are subject to, and Employee agrees to be bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the provisions of the SIP, incorporated herein by this reference.

Dated as of the ____ of ____, ____. ---------------------------- Signature of Spouse 7 Exhibit D SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE This Separation Agreement and Release (hereinafter this "Agreement") is made and entered into by and between ___________ (hereinafter, "Employee") and Gemstar - TV Guide International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter, the "Company"). 1. Employee's employment by the Company has terminated [or will terminate] on __________________ (hereinafter, the "Termination Date"). 2. Pursuant to the terms of that certain Employment Agreement dated as of November __, 2002 between the Company and Employee (hereinafter, the "Employment Agreement"), Employee is required to execute this Agreement in order to obtain certain benefits under the Employment Agreement . 3. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Employee hereby RELEASES and COVENANTS NOT TO SUE the Company, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, assigns, its or their employee benefit plans, trustees, fiduciaries and administrators, and any and all of its and their respective past or present officers, directors, partners, insurers, agents, representatives, attorneys and employees (all collectively included in the term the "Company" for purposes of this Agreement ), from any and all claims, demands or causes of action, known or unknown, based on any events or circumstances relating to his employment at the Company or any subsidiary of the Company and arising or occurring prior to and including the date of Employee's execution of this Agreement, which Employee, his heirs, executors, administrators, agents, attorneys, representatives or assigns (all collectively included in the term "Employee" for purposes of this release and covenant not to sue), has, had or may have against the Company under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, Executive Order No. 11246, 42 U.S.C. ss. 1981, and all other federal, state and local statutes or ordinances,, any claims that his employment was unlawfully terminated, any rights to severance pay or benefits (other than as provided for in the Employment Agreement or that certain Termination Agreement dated as of November __ 2002 between the Company, Gemstar Development Corporation and Employee), and any rights of continued employment, reinstatement or reemployment by the Company, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, Employee is not waiving, releasing or giving up any rights Employee may have (i) to test the knowing and voluntary nature of this Agreement under The Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, (ii) to workers' compensation benefits, (iii) to vested benefits under any qualified pension or savings plan, (iv) to continued benefits in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, or (v) to unemployment insurance. 4.

Employee represents that he has not filed a complaint, charge or claim with any court or governmental agency against the Company with respect to any claim released hereby and has not assigned any such claim against the Company to any person or entity. 5. Employee expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits afforded by Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California with respect to the releases provided herein, and does so understanding and acknowledging the significance of such specific waiver of Section 1542. Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California states as follows: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR." Thus, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1542, and for the purpose of implementing the releases provided herein, Employee expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include in its effect, without limitation other than the express limitations set forth herein, all claims of the kind released hereby even if he does not know or suspect such claim to exist in his favor at the time of execution hereof, and that this Agreement contemplates the extinguishment of any such claims. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waiver of the provisions of Section 1542 has been expressly bargained for by each of the parties in the negotiation of this Agreement. 6.

Employee may accept this Agreement by delivering an executed copy of this Agreement on or after the Termination Date and on or before _______________________, in the manner described in Section 10(b), "Notices," of the Employment Agreement. 8. Employee may revoke this Agreement within seven (7) days after it is executed by Employee by delivering a written notice of revocation in the manner described in Section 10(b), "Notices," of the Employment Agreement, no later than the close of business on the seventh (7th) calendar day after this Agreement was signed by Employee. This Agreement will not become effective or enforceable until the eighth (8th) calendar day after Employee signs. If Employee revokes this Agreement, the parties shall have no obligations under this Agreement. 9. This Agreement does not constitute and shall not be construed as an admission by the Company that it has violated any law, interfered with any rights, breached any obligation or otherwise engaged in any improper or illegal conduct with respect to Employee, and the Company expressly denies that it has engaged in any such conduct. 10. If any provision, section, subsection or other portion of this Agreement shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable -2- in whole or in part, and such determination shall become final, such provision or portion shall be deemed to be severed or limited, but only to the extent required to render the remaining provisions and portion of this Agreement enforceable. This Agreement as thus amended shall be enforced so as to give effect to the intention of the parties insofar as that is possible. In addition, the parties hereby expressly empower a court of competent jurisdiction to modify any term or provision of this Agreement to the extent necessary to comply with existing law and to enforce this Agreement as modified. 11. Employee hereby agrees and acknowledges that he has carefully read this Agreement, fully understands what this Agreement means, and is signing this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily, and that Employee has not relied on any statement by anyone associated with the Company that is not contained in this Agreement in deciding to sign this Agreement. 12. This Agreement, the legal relations between the parties and any action, whether contractual or non-contractual, instituted by any party with respect to matters arising under or growing out of or in connection with or in respect of this Agreement, the relationship of the parties or the subject matter hereof shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made and performed in such State and without regard to conflicts of law doctrines. 13. All disputes arising under this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10(f) of the Employment Agreement.
