Re: Separation Agreement

Dear Patrick:

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) confirms the agreement between you and New Relic, Inc. (the “Company”) concerning the terms of your voluntary resignation and separation from the Company and offers you the severance benefit we discussed in exchange for a release of claims.

1. Separation Date. Your resignation date and your employment termination date will be July 1, 2015 (the “Separation Date”). By signing below, you will also resign from your position of Chief Marketing Officer of the Company and from any other officer positions with the Company and all of its affiliated entities as of the Separation Date. You will be expected to perform your current duties, transition your work load, and provide other transition assistance as requested by the Company from the date of this letter until the Separation Date. The Company will continue to pay you your regular base salary and you will continue to participate in the employee benefit plans in which you are currently enrolled (subject to the terms and conditions of those benefit plans) through the Separation Date, subject to Sections 4 and 5 below.

2. Accrued Compensation. On the Separation Date, the Company will pay you all accrued salary, and all accrued and unused vacation, earned through the Separation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. In addition, the Company will pay you any earned incentive bonus for the fiscal quarter ending on June 30, 2015, in the amount and at the time such payment would normally be paid to you under the terms of your bonus program. The payments in this paragraph are not contingent on signing this Agreement.

3. Health Insurance. To the extent provided by the federal COBRA law or, if applicable, state insurance laws (collectively, “COBRA”), and by the Company’s current group health insurance policies, you will be eligible to continue your group health insurance benefits at your own expense after the Separation Date. Later, you may be able to convert to an individual policy through the provider of the Company’s health insurance, if you wish. You will be provided with a separate notice describing your rights and obligations under COBRA laws on or after the Separation Date. Your COBRA rights are not contingent on signing this Agreement.

4. Equity Awards. Vesting of your outstanding stock options and any other equity awards, if any (“Equity Awards”), will cease on the Separation Date. Except as provided in Section 5 below, your Equity Awards will continue to be governed by the terms of the applicable Equity Awards documents and are not contingent on signing this Agreement.

5. Severance Benefit. Although the Company is not otherwise obligated to do so, if you timely return this fully signed and dated Agreement to the Company, and if you allow it to become effective, and if you comply fully with your obligations hereunder, and, if you sign the Separation Date Release attached hereto as Exhibit A on or within twenty-one (21) days after the Separation Date, and allow that release to become effective, and provided you resign from all positions you then-hold with the Company and any subsidiaries, the Company will amend your outstanding stock options, effective as of the Separation Date, such that you may exercise each of the vested stock options following your Separation Date until the earlier of (i) a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time), and (ii) January 15, 2016 (the “Option Amendment”). BY SIGNING THIS LETTER AGREEMENT, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY VESTED STOCK OPTIONS THAT WERE INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS UNDER APPLICABLE TAX LAW AS OF THE DATE OF GRANT WILL CONVERT TO NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS AS A RESULT OF THE OPTION AMENDMENT. You further acknowledge and agree that you will be required to make adequate provision for applicable income and employment tax withholdings in connection with the exercise of such nonstatutory stock options on and after that date.

6. No Other Compensation or Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you have not earned, will not earn and will not receive from the Company any additional compensation, severance, or benefits on or after the Separation Date, with the exception of any vested right you may have under the express terms of a written ERISA-qualified benefit plan (e.g., 401(k) account). By way of example, you acknowledge that you will not continue to vest in or earn any additional bonus, equity, incentive compensation, or commissions after the Separation Date.

7. Expense Reimbursements. You agree that, within thirty (30) days of the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement. The Company will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice.

8. Return of Company Property. By no later than your Separation Date, you shall return to the Company all Company documents (and all copies thereof) and other Company property in your possession or control, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, financial and operational information, customer lists and contact information, product and services information, research and development information, drawings, records, plans, forecasts, reports, payroll information, spreadsheets, studies, analyses, compilations of data, proposals, agreements, sales and marketing information, personnel information, specifications, code, software, databases, computer-recorded information, tangible property and equipment (including, but not limited to, computers, facsimile machines, mobile telephones, tables, handheld devices, and servers), credit cards, entry cards, identification badges and keys; and any materials of any kind which contain or embody any proprietary or confidential information of the Company and all reproductions thereof in whole or in part and in any medium. You agree that you will make a diligent search to locate any such documents, property and information within the timeframe

referenced above. In addition, if you have used any personally owned computer, server, or e-mail system to receive, store, review, prepare or transmit any confidential or proprietary data, materials or information of the Company, then within five (5) business days after your Separation Date, you must provide the Company with a computer-useable copy of such information and then permanently delete and expunge such confidential or proprietary information from those systems without retaining any reproductions (in whole or in part); and you agree to provide the Company access to your system, as requested, to verify that the necessary copying and deletion is done. Your timely compliance with the provisions of this paragraph is a precondition to your receipt of the Option Amendment provided hereunder.

9. Proprietary Information Obligations. You acknowledge and reaffirm your obligations under your signed Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B for your reference.

10. Nondisparagement. You and the Company agree not to disparage one another in any manner reasonably likely to be harmful to each other or each of our business, business reputations, or personal reputations. You will also similarly not disparage the Company’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders or agents, you and the Company may respond accurately and fully to any request for information if required by legal process. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude you from describing your accomplishments and responsibilities while employed at the Company to a prospective employer or for purposes of professional development.

11. No Admissions. The promises and payments in consideration of this Agreement shall not be construed to be an admission of any liability or obligation by either party to the other party, and neither party makes any such admission.

12. Cooperation and Assistance. You agree that you will not voluntarily provide assistance, information or advice, directly or indirectly (including through agents or attorneys), to any person or entity in connection with any claim or cause of action of any kind brought against the Company, nor shall you induce or encourage any person or entity to bring such claims. However, it will not violate this Agreement if you testify truthfully when required to do so by a valid subpoena or under similar compulsion of law. Further, you agree to voluntarily cooperate with the Company, if you have knowledge of facts relevant to any threatened or pending claim, investigation, audit or litigation against or by the Company, by making yourself reasonably available without further compensation for interviews with the Company or its legal counsel, preparing for and providing truthful and accurate deposition and trial testimony.

13. Release of Claims.

(a) General Release. In exchange for the consideration provided to you under this Agreement to which you would not otherwise be entitled, you hereby generally and completely release the Company, and its affiliated, related, parent and subsidiary entities, and its and their current and former directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, insurers, affiliates, and assigns (collectively, “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring prior to or on the date you sign this Agreement (collectively, “Released Claims”).
