RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

In consideration of your services, Pendrell Corporation (the “Company”) has awarded you a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) under its 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for the number of restricted stock units set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) that accompanied this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Award Agreement”). Capitalized terms not defined in this Award Agreement shall have the meanings given to them in the Plan

The details of your Award, in addition to those set forth in the Grant Notice and the Plan, are as follows.

1. GRANT OF THE AWARD. This Award represents your right to be issued on a future date the number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock that is equal to the number of restricted stock units indicated in the Grant Notice (the “Stock Units”). As of the Date of Grant, the Company will credit to a bookkeeping account maintained by the Company for your benefit (the “Account”) the number of Stock Units subject to the Award. This Award was granted in consideration of your services to the Company. You will not be required to make any payment to the Company (other than past and future services to the Company) for the Award, the vesting of the Stock Units or the delivery of the Class A Common Stock to be issued upon vesting of the Award.

2. VESTING. Subject to any acceleration provisions, rights and limitations contained in any employment letter, employment agreement or similar agreement that provides you with more favorable vesting provisions, your Award will vest, if at all, in accordance with the vesting schedule provided in the Grant Notice. Upon termination of your Continuous Service for any reason, the Stock Units credited to the Account that were not vested on the date of or as a result of such termination (after taking into account any vesting acceleration provisions in any applicable employment letter, employment agreement or similar agreement) will be forfeited and you will have no further right, title or interest in such Stock Units or the shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued on account of such Stock Units.

3. ADJUSTMENTS TO NUMBER OF STOCK UNITS AND SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK.

(a) The number of Stock Units subject to your Award may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments, as provided in the Plan.

(b) If the Company declares a nonrecurring cash dividend, then the Plan Administrator may appropriately and proportionately reserve cash payments for the shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued on account of your Stock Units, or adjust the number of Stock Units subject to the Award, all as more thoroughly described in Section 9 of the Plan.

(c) Any cash payment or additional Stock Units that become subject to the Award pursuant to this Section 3 shall be subject, in a manner determined by the Plan Administrator, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability, and time and manner of delivery as applicable to the Stock Units from which the additional cash payment or additional Stock Units are generated.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3, no fractional shares or rights for fractional shares of Class A Common Stock shall be created pursuant to this Section 3. The Plan Administrator shall, in its discretion, determine an equivalent benefit for any fractional shares that would otherwise be created by the adjustments referred to in this Section 3.

4. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE. After your Award has vested, the Company will issue shares in the manner described in Section 6 of this Award Agreement so long as: (i) the issuance of the shares is registered under the Securities Act; or (ii) the Company has determined that such issuance is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Your Award also must comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the Award, and you will not receive shares if the Company determines that receipt would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.

5. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. You may not assign, donated, pledge or transfer your Award, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempt to do so other than as a result of your death will be void

If a scheduled delivery date falls on a date that is not a business day, such delivery date shall instead fall on the next following business day.

(b) The provisions of Appendix A to this Award Agreement will apply to the extent the Award is subject to, and not exempt from, application of Section 409A (a “Non-Exempt Award”).

(b) By accepting this Award, you acknowledge and agree that the right to continue vesting in the Award is earned only by continuing as an employee, director or consultant at the will of the Company (not through the act of being hired, being granted this Award or any other award or benefit) and that the Company has the right to reorganize, sell, spin-out or otherwise restructure one or more of its businesses or Affiliates at any time or from time to time, as it deems appropriate, which could result in the termination of your Continuous Service, or the termination of Affiliate status of your employer and the loss of benefits available to you under this Award Agreement, including but not limited to, the termination of the right to continue vesting in the Award. You further acknowledge and agree that this Award Agreement, the Plan, the transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth herein or any covenant of good faith and fair dealing that may be found implicit in any of them do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued engagement as an employee or consultant for the term of this Award Agreement.

Appendix A

The provisions set forth on this Appendix A shall apply to the extent the Award is a Non-Exempt Award and shall supersede any provisions to the contrary set forth in the Plan or in any other section of the Award Agreement.

1. The provisions of this Section 1 are intended to apply to the extent your Award is a Non-Exempt Award because of the terms of a severance arrangement or other agreement between you and the Company, if any, that provide for acceleration of vesting of your Award and issuance of the shares in respect of the Award upon your termination of employment or separation from service (as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code (and without regard to any alternative definition thereunder) (“Separation from Service”) and such severance benefit does not satisfy the requirements for an exemption from application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) or 1.409A-1(b)(9) (“Non-Exempt Severance Arrangement”). To the extent your Award is a Non-Exempt Award due to application of a Non-Exempt Severance Arrangement, the following provisions in this Section 1 of Appendix A shall supersede anything to the contrary in Section 6(a) of the Award Agreement.

(a) If your Award vests in the ordinary course during your Continuous Service in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice, without accelerating vesting under the terms of a Non-Exempt Severance Arrangement, then your shares shall be issued within the time period necessary to satisfy the short-term deferral exception to Section 409(A). Specifically, in no event will the shares be issued in respect of your Award any later than the later of: (i) December 31^st of the calendar year that includes the vesting date and (ii) the 60^th day that follows the vesting date.

(b) If vesting of your Award accelerates under the terms of a Non-Exempt Severance Arrangement in connection with your Separation from Service, and such vesting acceleration provisions were in effect as of the date of grant of your Award and, therefore, are part of the terms of your Award as of the date of grant, then the shares will be issued no event later than the 60^th day that follows the date of your Separation from Service. However, if at the time the shares would otherwise be issued you are subject to the distribution limitations contained in Section 409A applicable to “specified employees,” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such shares shall not be issued before the date that is six (6) months following the date of your Separation from Service.

(c) If vesting of your Award accelerates under the terms of a Non-Exempt Severance Arrangement in connection with your Separation from Service, and such vesting acceleration provisions were not in effect as of the date of grant of the Award and, therefore, are not a part of the terms of your Award on the date of grant, then such acceleration of vesting of your Award shall not accelerate the issuance date of the shares, but the shares shall instead be issued on the same schedule as set forth in the Grant Notice as if they had vested in the ordinary course during your Continuous Service, notwithstanding the vesting acceleration of the Award. Such issuance schedule is intended to satisfy the requirements of payment on a specified date or pursuant to a fixed schedule, as provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(a)(4).

2. Permitted Treatment of Non-Exempt Awards Upon a Corporate Transaction for Employees and Consultants. The provisions in this Section 2 shall apply and shall supersede anything to the contrary that may be set forth in the Plan with respect to the treatment of your Non-Exempt Award in connection with a Corporate Transaction if you were either an Employee or Consultant upon the date of grant of your Non-Exempt Award.

-6-

(a) Vested Non-Exempt Awards: To the extent your Non-Exempt Award has vested in accordance with its terms upon or prior to the date of a Corporate Transaction (such portion of your Non-Exempt Award is a “Vested Non-Exempt Award”), then the following provisions shall apply.

(i) If the Corporate Transaction is also change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets, as described in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (a “409A Change of Control”) then the surviving or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) (the “Acquiring Entity”) may not assume, continue or substitute your Vested Non-Exempt Award. Instead, upon the 409A Change of Control, shares will be immediately issued in respect of your Vested Non-Exempt Award, or the Company may elect to pay you cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares that would otherwise be issued to you upon the 409A Change of Control.

(ii) If the Corporate Transaction is not also a 409A Change of Control, then the Acquiring Entity must either assume, continue or substitute your Vested Non-Exempt Award, and the shares to be issued in respect of your Vested Non-Exempt Award shall be issued to you by the Acquiring Entity on the same schedule that the shares would have been issued to you if the Corporate Transaction had not occurred. In the Acquiring Entity’s discretion, in lieu of an issuance of shares, the Acquiring Entity may elect to pay you cash on each applicable issuance date, equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares that would otherwise be issued to you on such issuance dates, with the determination of the Fair Market Value of the shares made on the date of the Corporate Transaction.

(b) Unvested Non-Exempt Awards. To the extent your Non-Exempt Award has not vested in accordance with its terms upon or prior to the date of any Corporate Transaction (such portion of your Non-Exempt Award is an “Unvested Non-Exempt Award”), then the following provisions shall apply.

(i) If the Acquiring Entity will not assume, substitute or continue your Unvested Non-Exempt Award, then such Award shall automatically terminate and be forfeited upon the Corporate Transaction with no consideration payable to you in respect of your forfeited Unvested Non-Exempt Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted and in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A, the Company may in its discretion accelerate the vesting and settlement of the Unvested Non-Exempt Award upon the Corporate Transaction, or instead pay you cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such shares that would otherwise be issued to you, as further provided in Section 4(b) below.

(ii) The foregoing treatment shall apply to all Unvested Non-Exempt Awards upon any Corporate Transaction, and regardless of whether or not such Corporate Transaction is also a 409A Change of Control.

3. Permitted Treatment of Non-Exempt Awards Upon a Corporate Transaction for Non-Employee Directors. If you were a Director but not an Employee or Consultant on the applicable grant date of your Non-Exempt Award (“Non-Exempt Director Award”), the following provisions shall apply.

(a) If the Corporate Transaction is also a 409A Change of Control then the Acquiring Entity may not assume, continue or substitute your Non-Exempt Director Award. Instead, upon the 409A Change of Control, shares will be immediately issued for the vested portion of your Non-Exempt Director Award, or the Company may elect to pay you cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares that would otherwise be issued to you upon the 409A Change of Control.

-7-

(b) If the Corporate Transaction is not also a 409A Change of Control, then the Acquiring Entity must either assume, continue or substitute your Non-Exempt Director Award, and the shares to be issued in respect of your Non-Exempt Director Award shall be issued to you by the Acquiring Entity on the same schedule that the shares would have been issued to you if the Corporate Transaction had not occurred. In the Acquiring Entity’s discretion, in lieu of an issuance of shares, the Acquiring Entity may elect to pay you cash on each applicable issuance date, equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares that would otherwise be issued to you on such issuance dates, with the determination of the Fair Market Value of the shares made on the date of the Corporate Transaction.

4. General Superseding Provisions. The provisions in this Section 4 shall apply and supersede anything to the contrary that may be set forth in the Plan, the Grant Notice or in any other section of the Award Agreement with respect to the permitted treatment of your Non-Exempt Award:

(a) Any exercise by the Board of discretion to accelerate the vesting of your Non-Exempt Award shall not result in any acceleration of issuance unless accelerated issuance does not trigger tax obligations under Section 409A.

(b) The Company explicitly reserves the right to earlier settle your Non-Exempt Award to the extent accelerated issuance does not trigger tax obligations under Section 409A, including pursuant to any of the exemptions available in Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix).

(c) To the extent the terms of your Non-Exempt Award provide that it will be settled upon a Change in Control or Corporate Transaction, to the extent it is required for compliance with the requirements of Section 409A, the Change in Control or Corporate Transaction event triggering settlement must also constitute a 409A Change of Control. To the extent the terms of your Non-Exempt Award provides that it will be settled upon a termination of employment or termination of Continuous Service, to the extent it is required for compliance with the requirements of Section 409A, the termination event triggering settlement must also constitute a Separation From Service. However, if at the time the shares would otherwise be issued to you in connection with your “separation from service” you are subject to the distribution limitations contained in Section 409A applicable to “specified employees,” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such shares shall not be issued before the date that is six (6) months following the date of your Separation From Service, or, if earlier, the date of your death that occurs within such six month period.

5. Section 409A Compliance. The provisions in this Award Agreement for delivery of the shares in respect of the Non-Exempt Award are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that the delivery of the shares to you in respect of your Non-Exempt Award will not trigger the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be so interpreted.
