6.2    The failure by the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of a CIC Qualifying Termination, a Non-CIC Qualifying Termination, or Cause shall not waive any right of the Company hereunder or preclude the Company from asserting any such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Company’s rights hereunder.

7.    Mitigation. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or benefits provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise. Further, the amount of any payment or benefits provided for in this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to the Company or otherwise.

8.    Coordination of Benefits; Settlement of Awards.

8.1    Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, to the extent that any severance payable under a plan or agreement covering the Executive as of the Effective Date constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), then to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A the portion of the benefits payable hereunder equal to such other amount shall instead be provided in the form set forth in such other plan or agreement. Further, to the extent, if any, provisions of this Agreement affect the time or form of payment of any amount which constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A, then to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, if a Change in Control does not constitute a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A, the time and form (but not the amount) of payment shall be the time and form that would have been applicable in absence of a Change in Control.

8.2    Notwithstanding anything in Section 4(a) or Section 5(a) to the contrary, if all or a portion of a Company equity award subject to accelerated vesting under the terms of such Sections constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A, then to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, such awards shall vest at the time(s) provided in such Sections, but settlement, distribution or payment, as the case may be, shall be made on the earliest possible date that would not subject such awards to taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A.

9.    Successors.

9.1 Successor to Company. The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company to assume and agree to perform this Agreement to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain an assumption of this Agreement at or prior to the effectiveness of any succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall constitute Good Reason if the Executive elects to terminate employment in a manner consistent with the procedures for Good Reason. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as defined above and any successor to its business or assets by operation of law or otherwise.

9.2    Successor to Executive. This Agreement shall, at Executive’s direction, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive or his family hereunder if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the Executive’s estate.

10.    Notice. All notices, instructions and other communications given hereunder or in connection herewith shall be in writing. Any such notice, instruction or communication shall be sent either (i) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (ii) prepaid via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service, in each case addressed to the Company, at its principal corporate offices, Attention: Chief Legal Officer, with a copy to legal@commvault.com, and to the Executive at the Executive’s address indicated on the Company’s personnel records (or to such other address as either the Company or the Executive may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith). Any such notice, instruction or communication shall be deemed to have been delivered three business days after it is sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or one business day after it is sent via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service. Either party may give any notice, instruction or other communication hereunder using any other means, but no such notice, instruction or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly delivered unless and until it actually is received by the party for whom it is intended.

11.    Miscellaneous.

11.1    Not an Employment Contract. The Executive acknowledges that this Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment or impose on the Company any obligation to retain the Executive as an employee and does not prevent the Executive from terminating employment at any time.

11.2    Disputes. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any claims, disputes or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in the Executive’s resident state, in accordance with the rules of JAMS then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction. Furthermore, the Company and the Executive agree that any breach of this Agreement by the Company is likely to cause the Executive substantial and irrevocable damage and therefore, in the event of any such breach, in addition to such other remedies which may be available, the Executive shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive relief.

11.3    Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

11.4    Waivers. No waiver by either party at any time of any breach of, or compliance with, any provision of this Agreement to be performed by either party shall be deemed a waiver of that or any other provision at any subsequent time.

11.5    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but both of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

11.6    Tax Withholding. Any payments provided for hereunder shall be paid net of any applicable tax withholding required under federal, state or local law.

11.7    Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the severance matters contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein; and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein is hereby terminated and cancelled. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by both the Company and the Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall not limit, and shall be in addition to, any rights the Executive may have, or be entitled to, with respect to the acceleration of equity pursuant to any equity plan of the Company (such as, but not limited to, any acceleration of equity awards under the Company’s equity incentive plans) or its subsidiaries (as administrated by the relevant plan administrator), any option or restricted stock agreement, or any other written documentation related to the acceleration of equity executed or assumed by or on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries. In the event of a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any provision of any other agreement in effect between the Company and the Executive, the provision affording the greater benefit to the Executive will govern.

11.8    Section 409A. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A, to the extent subject thereto, and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separate and distinct payment for purposes of Section 409A. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A:

(a)    Executive shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of any payments under this Agreement which are subject to Section 409A until Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A.

(b)    Amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement or any other arrangement between Executive and the Company during the six (6) month period immediately following Executive’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service (or, if earlier, Executive’s date of death).

(c)    Amounts reimbursable to Executive shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred, the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in-kind benefits provided to Executive) during one year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year.

(d)    “Disability” shall accelerate settlement (but not vesting) only to the extent that Executive has a “disability” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments described in this Agreement shall be exempt from or comply with Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to any such payment. The Executive shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A.

11.9    Section 280G.

(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive (including any payment or benefit received in connection with a Change in Control or the termination of the Executive’s employment, whether pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (all such payments and benefits, including the severance benefits payable hereunder, being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part), to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”), then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of Section 280G in such other plan, arrangement or agreement, the severance benefits payable hereunder shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (A) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (B) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments).

(b) In the case of a reduction in the Total Payments pursuant to Section 11.9(a), the Total Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (A) payments that are payable in cash the full amount of which are treated as parachute payments under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) shall be reduced (if necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (B) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity the full amount of which are treated as parachute payments under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) shall next be reduced; (C) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last reduced first, shall next be reduced; (D) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) shall next be reduced; and (E) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses (B) or (D) shall be next reduced pro-rata.

Geoff Haydon has been appointed President of Customer and Field Operations and will oversee the end-to-end customer experience, from Sales and Partnerships through Customer Support and Success.

Haydon most recently was CEO of cybersecurity company Ontinue, a leading provider of AI-powered managed extended detection and response (MXDR) services which spun out of Open Systems in 2023. Haydon also held go-to-market leadership roles at VMware and Secureworks, focused on revenue and customer operations. He brings deep security expertise to Commvault as the company gains momentum with security-focused customers. Haydon, who has served on Commvault’s Board of Directors, will leave the Board to focus on this operating role.

Sanjay Mirchandani, Commvault’s President and CEO, said, “Gary has a long tenure with Commvault and a unique understanding of what customers need to be resilient in the AI era. He will drive disciplined financial execution that supports our growth strategy and advances long-term value for our customers, partners, and shareholders.”

Mirchandani continued, “I’ve known Geoff for years. He is a proven executive with decades of experience building and scaling global security and technology companies. His international experience, go-to-market and leadership expertise, customer focus, and understanding of Commvault’s business position him well to accelerate our operational success.”

Merrill said, “I’m honored to return as CFO of Commvault as we embark on our next chapter of innovation for our customers. The company has a strong foundation with thousands of customers and a rapidly expanding Subscription and SaaS revenue base. I look forward to working with Sanjay, Geoff, and leaders across the company to deliver sustainable growth and profitability in FY 2027 and beyond.”

Haydon said, “Commvault has never been more relevant in cyber resilience. With an extensive background in AI-native security, international markets, and cross-functional leadership, I’m excited to roll up my sleeves in the field, lead the customer and partner operations teams, and deliver greater value for enterprises globally with a customer experience that is best-in-class.”
