Exhibit 10.01

CHANGE OF CONTROL RETENTION AGREEMENT

     This Change of Control Retention Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of                     , 2007, by and between Silicon Image, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and                                          (the “Executive”).

RECITALS

     WHEREAS, the Executive is a key employee of the Company who possesses valuable proprietary knowledge of the Company, its business and operations and the markets in which the Company competes;

     WHEREAS, the Company draws upon the knowledge, experience, expertise and advice of the Executive to manage its business for the benefit of the Company’s stockholders;

     WHEREAS, the Company recognizes that if a Change of Control were to occur, the resulting uncertainty regarding the consequences of such an event could adversely affect the performance of, and the Company’s ability to attract and retain, its key employees, including the Executive;

     WHEREAS, the Company believes that the existence of this Agreement will serve as an incentive to Executive to remain in the employ of the Company and to be focused and motivated to work to maximize the value of the Company for the benefit of its stockholders, and would enhance the Company’s ability to call on and rely upon Executive if a Change of Control were to occur; and

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to enter into this Agreement to encourage the Executive to continue to devote the Executive’s full attention and dedication to the success of the Company, and to provide specified compensation and benefits to the Executive in the event of a Termination Upon Change of Control pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

1.		PURPOSE
		The purpose of this Agreement is to provide specified compensation and benefits to the Executive in the event of his Termination Upon Change of Control. Subject to the terms of any applicable written employment agreement between Company and the Executive, either the Executive or Company may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time for any reason.

2.		TERMINATION UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL
		In the event of the Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits described in this Section 2:

2.1

Prior Obligations.

	2.1.1		Accrued Salary and Vacation. A lump sum payment of all salary and accrued vacation earned through the Termination Date.
	2.1.2		Expense Reimbursement. Upon submission of proper expense reports by the Executive, the Company shall reimburse the Executive for all expenses incurred by the Executive, consistent with past practices, in connection with the business of the Company prior to the Executive’s Termination Date.
	2.1.3		Employee Benefits. Benefits, if any, under any 401(k) plan, nonqualified deferred compensation plan, employee stock purchase plan and other Company benefit plans under which the Executive may be entitled to benefits, payable pursuant to the terms of such plans.

	2.2		Additional Cash Severance Benefits. (a ) An amount equal to twelve (12) months of Executive’s Base Salary and (b) an amount equal to fifty percent (50% ) of the Executive’s target annual bonus under the Company’s incentive compensation or bonus plan in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control, provided however, that should the Termination Date occur in the last six (6) months of any calendar year, the foregoing bonus payment shall be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Executive’s target annual bonus under the applicable incentive compensation or bonus plan. The foregoing amounts shall be payable in one lump sum within thirty (30) days following the Termination Date.
	2.3		Acceleration of Equity Awards. Fifty percent (50%) of all unvested, outstanding Equity Awards granted to Executive prior to the Change of Control shall have their vesting and exercisability accelerated. The Executive shall be entitled to exercise any Equity Award within the period ending three (3) months following the Termination Date, or such longer period as specified by the Equity Award, but in no event later than the expiration date of the Equity Award; provided, however, that if such Equity Awards are not assumed by the Successor in a Change of Control, they shall accelerate in full and must be exercised or cashed out in full prior to the consummation of the Change of Control regardless of whether there occurs a Termination Upon Change of Control.
	2.4		Extended Insurance Benefits.

2.4.1

Benefit Continuation. If the Executive timely elects coverage under COBRA, the Executive shall receive at the Company’s expense continued provision of the Company’s health related and other standard employee insurance coverage as in effect immediately prior to the Executive’s

			Termination Upon Change of Control for a period of twelve (12) months following such Termination Upon Change of Control. The date of the “qualifying event” for the Executive and any dependents shall be the date of his Termination Upon Change of Control.
	2.4.2		Coverage Under Another Plan. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this subsection 2.4, in the event the Executive becomes covered as a primary insured (that is, not as a beneficiary under a spouse’s or partner’s plan) under another employer’s group health plan during the period provided for herein, the Executive promptly shall inform the Company and the Company shall cease provision of continued group health insurance for the Executive and any dependents.

3.		FEDERAL EXCISE TAX UNDER SECTION 280G
		If (1) any amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise are characterized as excess parachute payments pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (2) the Executive thereby would be subject to any United States federal excise tax due to that characterization, then Executive’s termination benefits hereunder will be payable, at Executive’s election, either in full or in such lesser amount as would result, after taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, in Executive’s receipt on an after-tax basis of the greatest amount of termination and other benefits. The determination of any reduction required pursuant to this section (including the determination as to which specific payments shall be reduced) shall be made by a neutral party designated by the Company and such determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company or any related corporation for all purposes.

3.		Covenant Not to Sue.

	(a)		To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree that you will not now or at any time in the future pursue any charge, claim, or action of any kind, nature and character whatsoever against any of the Releasees, or cause or knowingly permit any such charge, claim or action to be pursued, in any federal, state or municipal court, administrative agency, arbitral forum, or other tribunal, arising out of any of the matters covered by paragraphs 1 and 2 above.
