Amended and Restated Executive Severance and Arbitration Agreement with Raghavendra Rau dated December 27, 2018

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 27, 2018 by and between TiVo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Raghavendra Rau (“Executive”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Executive’s amended offer letter agreement with the Company dated December 27, 2018 (the “Amended Offer Letter”).

WHEREAS, the Board has recommended and authorized the Company to enter into a severance agreement in the form hereof with Executive;

WHEREAS, the Board has determined that, in the event of a possible threatened or pending sale or other change in control

of the Company, it is imperative that the Company and the Board be able to rely upon Executive to continue in Executive’s position, and that the Company be able to receive and rely upon Executive’s advice, if requested, as to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders without concern that Executive might be distracted by the personal uncertainties and risks created by any such possible transactions; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the foregoing, Executive may, in addition to Executive’s regular duties, be called upon to assist in the assessment of any such possible transactions, advise management and the Board as to whether such proposals would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, and to take such other actions as the Board might determine to be appropriate.

NOW, THEREFORE, to assure the Company that it will have the continued dedication of Executive and the availability of Executive’s advice and counsel through the occurrence of any Change in Control, and to induce Executive to enter into and remain in the employ of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company and Executive agree as follows:

1.Severance Benefits.

(a)In the event that Executive’s employment as interim President and CEO is terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary (as hereinafter defined) without Cause (as hereinafter defined) and other than as a result of Executive’s death or Disability, and provided that such termination constitutes a “separation from service” (as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), without regard to any alternative definition thereunder, a “Separation from Service”) (a “Qualifying Termination”), then subject to Executive’s obligations below in Section 1(k), Executive shall be entitled to receive fully accelerated vesting of the 2018 RSU and the 2019 RSU (if outstanding and unvested as of the date of such termination), with such acceleration to be effective as of the 90^th day following Executive’s Separation from Service.

(b)Additionally, in the event Executive experiences a Qualifying Termination either one (1) month prior to or one (1) year following the effective date of a Change in Control, then subject to Executive’s obligations below in Section 1(k), Executive will be eligible to receive severance in an amount equal to one (1) year of Executive’s then-current base salary, to be paid in a lump sum, subject to standard deductions and withholdings, on the 60^th day following Executive’s Separation from Service.

(c)If, during 2019, the Company hires a new CEO and Executive voluntarily chooses to resign his employment in connection with that hiring, then subject to Executive’s obligations below in Section 1(k), Executive will be entitled to receive fully accelerated vesting of the 2018 RSU and the 2019 RSU (if outstanding and unvested as of the date of such termination), with such acceleration to be effective as of the 90^th day following Executive’s Separation from Service.

(d)In the event that a Change in Control occurs and either the 2018 RSU and/or 2019 RSU (if outstanding and unvested as of the date of such Change in Control) is not assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or substituted for by a similar award covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number of shares, then effective and contingent upon such Change in Control occurring, Executive shall be entitled to receive fully accelerated vesting of the 2018 RSU and/or 2019 RSU, as applicable.

(e)If Executive is entitled to accelerated or continued vesting of an RSU pursuant to this Agreement, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the terms of such RSU (including any applicable equity incentive plan of the Company and any agreement evidencing such equity award), in no event will such RSU be forfeited or terminate prior to (i) the 90^th day following Executive’s Separation from Service.

(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the transfer of Executive’s employment from the Company to a Subsidiary (or to an entity of which the Company is a Subsidiary) or from a Subsidiary to the Company or to another Subsidiary (or to an entity of which the Company is a Subsidiary), by itself, shall not be considered a termination of Executive’s employment.

(g)For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means any of the following events: (i) any “person” or “group” (as defined in or pursuant to Sections 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) other than the Company, a subsidiary of the Company or other company affiliated with the Company is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly (including by holding securities which are exercisable for or convertible into shares of capital stock of the Company), of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, so long as, in the case of a Company subsidiary or other affiliated company becoming such a beneficial owner (a “Top Hat”), stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such transaction own at least fifty percent (50%) of the stock of the subsidiary or other affiliated company immediately following the Top Hat; (ii) the Company sells or exchanges, through merger, assignment or otherwise, in one or more transactions, other than in the ordinary course of business, assets which provided at least seventy percent (70%) of the revenues or pre-tax net income of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis during the most recently completed fiscal year; or (iii) in transactions other than a Top Hat, Continuing Directors cease to constitute at least a majority of the Board, and in the case of a Top Hat, Continuing Directors do not comprise a majority of the Board of Directors of the entity that becomes the beneficial owner of the Company’s securities immediately following the Top Hat. “Continuing Directors” are (A) each director serving on the Board on the date of this Agreement, and (B) any successor to any such director whose nomination or selection was approved by a majority of the directors in office at the time of the director’s nomination or selection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following events shall not constitute a Change in Control: any acquisition of beneficial ownership pursuant to (i) a reclassification, however effected, of the Company’s authorized common stock, or (ii) a corporate reorganization involving the Company or a Subsidiary which does not result in a material change in the ultimate ownership by the stockholders of the Company (through their ownership of the Company or its successor resulting from the reorganization) of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, but only if such reclassification or reorganization has been approved by the Board.

(h)For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) conviction of any felony or any act of fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement which has an immediate and materially adverse effect on the Company or a Subsidiary; (ii) engaging in a fraudulent act to the material damage or prejudice of the Company or a Subsidiary or engaging in conduct or activities materially damaging to the property, business or reputation of the Company or a Subsidiary; (iii) failure to comply in any material respect with the terms of any applicable employment agreement or any written policies or directives of the Board which have an immediate and materially adverse effect on the Company or a Subsidiary and which has not been corrected within 30 days after written notice from the Company of such failure; (iv) any material act or omission involving malfeasance or negligence in the performance of employment duties which has an immediate and materially adverse effect on the Company or a Subsidiary and which has not been corrected within 30 days after written notice from the Company; or (v) material breach of any other agreement with the Company, which has an immediate and materially adverse effect on the Company or a Subsidiary and which has not been cured within 30 days after written notice from the Company of such breach.

(i)For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means Executive has been unable to substantially perform his regular employment obligations under the Offer Letter for more than 120 days in any consecutive 365 day period, after being provided reasonable accommodation, due to a mental or physical illness, accident or incapacity. A Disability termination shall occur upon written notice from the Company given when Executive is Disabled. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, nothing in the definition of Disability herein shall be deemed to affect the Company’s ability to terminate Executive for “Cause” in the event of substance abuse (subject to the notice and cure provisions of the Cause definition related thereto).

(j)For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiary” means (i) any corporation, foreign or domestic, in which the Company directly or indirectly owns 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting stock on an “as converted basis” or (ii) any partnership, foreign or domestic, in which the Company owns a direct or indirect interest equal to 50% or more of the outstanding equity interests.

(k)Executive’s receipt of any severance benefits (including accelerated vesting) under this Agreement or the Amended Offer Letter is contingent upon: (a) Executive continuing to comply with Executive’s obligations under his Proprietary

Information, Inventions and Ethics Agreement; and (b) Executive delivering to the Company an effective, general release of claims in favor of the Company in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A within 60 days following Executive’s Separation from Service, provided that the Company may modify the form of such release to comply with applicable law and in that event (modifying the form to comply with applicable law) shall determine the form of such release.

2.Welfare Benefits. In the event that the Company is required to provide continuation of medical insurance coverage under COBRA (as defined below), then subject to Executive’s timely election of continued medical insurance coverage in accordance with the applicable provisions of state and federal law (commonly referred to as “COBRA”), the Executive will be responsible for payment of any COBRA premium payments (including dependent coverage, if applicable), except as provided in the Amended Offer Letter.

3.Withholding. All amounts payable by the Company hereunder shall be subject to all federal, state, local and other withholdings and employment taxes as required by applicable law.

4.No Solicitation of Employees. Executive hereby agrees that for a period of one year following the termination of Executive’s employment by or contractual relationship with the Company, for whatever reason, Executive will not directly or indirectly solicit, induce or influence any person who is engaged as an employee or otherwise by the Company or its Subsidiaries to seek employment with any other business, other than through general advertising not specifically targeted at such person, nor will Executive provide any information regarding employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries for the purpose of directly or indirectly soliciting, inducing or influencing an employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries to seek employment with any other business, including without limitation name, e-mail address, telephone or fax numbers, job titles or compensation information, to the extent not publicly available, to any third party without the prior written consent of the Company, provided that, nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from serving as an employment reference upon request.  Executive acknowledges that such information is proprietary to the Company and that providing such information for any unauthorized purpose, including without limitation the direct or indirect solicitation of such employees for employment, is strictly prohibited, and Executive further acknowledges that violation of this provision would result in damage to the Company for which Executive may be held personally liable, and Executive agrees that should Executive violate this provision, the Company may obtain injunctive relief as well as actual, incidental, or punitive damages, if appropriate.

5.Arbitration of Claims. The following arbitration provisions shall apply to any claim brought by Executive or the Company after the date of this Agreement even if the facts upon which the claim is based arose prior to the execution of this Agreement.

(a)Claims Covered by this Agreement. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company and Executive mutually consent to the resolution by arbitration of all claims or causes of action that the Company may have against Executive or that Executive may have against the Company or against its officers, directors, employees, or agents in the capacity as such or otherwise (collectively “claims”). The claims covered by this Agreement include, but are not limited to, claims for breach of any contract or covenant (express or implied); tort claims; claims for discrimination (including, but not limited to, race, sex, sexual harassment, or any type of unlawful harassment, religion, national origin, age, marital status, medical condition, disability or sexual orientation); claims for wrongful termination in violation of public policy; and claims for violation of any federal, state, or other governmental law, statute, regulation or ordinance, including, but not limited to, all claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1969, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the California Fair Employment & Housing Act, the California Labor Code, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, the Fair Labor Standards Act or Employee Retirement Income Security Act.

(b)Claims Not Covered by the Agreement. Any claims not subject to arbitration under Section 5(a) above shall be subject to the Company’s Arbitration Policy as in effect from time to time; provided that, as to claims by either party for injunctive and/or other equitable relief, the parties understand and agree that either party may seek and obtain relief from a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c)Required Notice of All Claims. The Company and Executive agree that the aggrieved party must give written notice of any claim to the other party. Written notice to the Company, or its officers, employees or agents shall be sent to the Company’s General Counsel. Executive will be given notice at the last address recorded in his/her personnel file or such other address as Executive may provide to the Company from time to time following the date of this Agreement by a writing specifying that it is the address for notice under this Agreement. The written notice shall identify and describe the nature of all claims asserted and detail the facts upon which such claims are based. The notice shall be sent to the other party by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

(d)Arbitration Procedures. The Company and Executive agree that, except as provided in this Agreement, any arbitration shall be in accordance with and under the auspices and rules of the American Arbitration Association (hereinafter the “Arbitration Service”). The arbitration shall take place in Santa Clara County, California, unless the parties mutually agree to conduct the arbitration in a different location. The arbitrator shall be selected by the mutual agreement of the parties. If the parties cannot agree on a neutral arbitrator, Executive first, and then the Company, will alternately strike names from a list provided by the Arbitration Service until only one name remains. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall apply the applicable statute of limitations to any claim, taking into account compliance with paragraph 5(c) of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall issue a written opinion and award, which shall be signed and dated. The arbitrator shall be permitted to award those remedies that are available under applicable law. The arbitrator’s decision regarding the claims shall be final and binding upon the parties. The arbitrator’s award shall be enforceable in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(e)Acknowledgment of Jury Trial Waiver. Executive and the Company understand that, by this Agreement, Executive and the Company is each waiving his or its right, as applicable, to have a claim adjudicated by a court or jury. Any party may be represented by an attorney or other representative selected by the party.

(f)Arbitration Fees and Costs; Attorneys’ Fees. Executive will be required to pay an arbitration fee to initiate the arbitration equal to what he/she would be charged as a first appearance fee in court. The Company shall advance the remaining fees and costs of the arbitrator. However, to the extent permissible under the law, and following the arbitrator’s ruling on the matter, the arbitrator may rule that the arbitrator’s fees and costs be distributed in an alternative manner.

(g)Requirements for Modification or Revocation. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company. It can only be revoked or modified by a writing signed by the parties that specifically states an intent to revoke or modify this Agreement.

(h)Consideration. Executive understands that the provisions for severance benefits as set forth herein and his continued employment with the Company are consideration for his/her acceptance of these arbitration provisions. In addition, the promises by the Company and by Executive to arbitrate claims, rather than litigate them before courts or other bodies, provide consideration for each other.

(i)Violation of this Agreement. Should any party to this Agreement hereafter institute any legal action or administrative proceeding against the other with respect to any claim required to be arbitrated under this Agreement or pursue any arbitral dispute by any method other than arbitration, the responding party shall recover from the initiating party all damages, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred as a result of such action.

6.Entire Agreement; Effect of Prior Agreements. This Agreement, together with the Amended Offer Letter, is the complete agreement of the parties on the subjects set forth herein, including benefits related and unrelated to a Change in Control and arbitration of disputes. This Agreement supersedes any prior or contemporaneous oral or written understanding on such subjects. No party is relying on any representations, oral or written, on the subject of the effect, enforceability, or meaning of this Agreement, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between any of the terms of this Agreement and any of the terms of (i) any of the agreements related to any equity awards granted to Executive, or (ii) the Amended Offer Letter, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the arbitration provisions of the arbitration policy, if any, accompanying the Original Offer Letter shall be superseded by the arbitration provisions set forth in this Agreement.

7.Section 409A. It is intended that all of the severance benefits and other payments payable under this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Code”) (“Section 409A”) provided under Treasury Regulations 1.409A 1(b)(4), 1.409A 1(b)(5) and 1.409A 1(b)(9), and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions and shall otherwise be interpreted to comply with Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A 2(b)(2)(iii)), Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement (whether reimbursements or otherwise) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each installment payment hereunder shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. To the extent that any reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits provided to Executive under this Agreement are subject to the provisions of Section 409A: (a) to be eligible to obtain reimbursement for such expenses Executive must submit expense reports within sixty (60) days after the expense is incurred, (b) any such reimbursements will be paid as soon as administratively practicable in accordance with the Company’s timing for expense reimbursement (but in all cases no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred in order to maintain compliance with Section 409A), (c) the amount of

expenses eligible for such expense reimbursement or the in-kind benefits provided during a taxable year of Executive shall not affect any expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year, and (d) the right to reimbursement or to in-kind benefits under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed by the Company at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), and if any of the payments upon Separation from Service set forth herein and/or under any other agreement with the Company are deemed to be “deferred compensation”, then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of such payments is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the related adverse taxation under Section 409A, such payments shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earliest of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company, (ii) the date of Executive’s death or (iii) such earlier date as permitted under Section 409A without the imposition of adverse taxation. Upon the first business day following the expiration of such applicable Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive, and any remaining payments due shall be paid as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable agreement. No interest shall be due on any amounts so deferred.

8.Section 280G. If any payment or benefit to which Executive may be entitled to receive in connection with a Change in Control or other similar transaction (the “Payments”, which shall include, without limitation, the vesting of an option or other non-cash benefit or property) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payments shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payments that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax, or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payments, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payments notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payments equal the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the manner that results in the greatest economic benefit for Executive. Determination of whether Payments would result in the application of the Excise Tax, and the amount of any reduction that is necessary so that the Payments equal the Reduced Amount shall be made, at the Company’s expense, by the independent accounting or other professional services firm employed by the Company prior to the date on which Executive’s right to any Payments are triggered (if requested at that time by Executive or the Company) or such other time as reasonably requested by Executive or the Company.

9.Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended without the prior written consent of both Executive and the Company.

10.No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment, does not change the status of Executive’s employment and does not change the Company’s policies regarding termination of employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to give Executive the right to be retained in the service of the Company or to deny the Company any right it may have to discharge or demote Executive at any time. No provision of this Agreement shall in any way limit, restrict or prohibit Executive’s right to terminate employment with the Company or leave his position as a senior executive.

11.Severability. If a court or other body of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent possible, or, if it is not possible to so adjust such provision, this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted. The invalidity and unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement shall not affect any other provision hereof, and all other provisions of the Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent possible.

12.Successors.

(a)The Company will require any successor, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.

(b)This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributes, devisees and legatees.

13.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard or reference to the rules of conflicts of law that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement, effective as of the date set forth in the first paragraph hereof.
