A copy of our current benefits package is enclosed.  Please note that the Company’s benefit package is subject to change at any time.  

In addition, you will be eligible to participate in the Company’s 2010 Executive Incentive Plan (EIP) with a target of 50% of your base salary, and (i) 70% of which is based upon the Company’s performance, and (ii) 30% of which is based upon MBO’s.

Retention Bonus. The company will also provide you with a retention bonus in the amount of $50,000.00 to be paid after two years of continuous employment with Immersion.  

Stock Options.  Effective upon board approval, the Company will grant you an option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s stock option plan and standard stock option agreement.  All options will have an exercise price that will be equal to the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock on the 10^th business day in the month following the month of your start date.  The options will become exercisable over a four-year exercise schedule with 25% of the shares vesting at the end of your first twelve months of service, and with an additional 2.083% vesting per month thereafter, at the close of each month during which you remain employed with the Company.

In order to make available compensation pursuant to this Agreement that will not be subject to taxation under Section 409A (as defined below), Executive and the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and Executive to enter into this Retention and Ownership Change Event Agreement. The Company intends that income provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement will not be subject to taxation under Section 409A, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in favor of satisfying any applicable requirements of Section 409A. However, the Company does not guarantee any particular tax effect for income provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement. In any event, except for the Company's responsibility to withhold applicable income and employment taxes from compensation paid or provided to Executive, the Company shall not be responsible for the payment of any applicable taxes on compensation paid or provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement.

The Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to assure that the Company will have the continued dedication and service of the Executive, notwithstanding the possibility or occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Company.

AGREEMENT

In recognition thereof, the parties now agree as follows:

Page 4

Executive agrees that if he resigns from his employment with the Company, he will provide the Company with 20 calendar days' written notice of such resignation. The Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive all or any part of such notice period and accept the Executive's resignation at an earlier date.

5. Termination for Cause. If Executive's employment is terminated by the Company at any time for Cause as defined above in paragraph 1, Executive will be entitled to no compensation or benefits from the Company other than those earned through the date of his termination for Cause.

6. Compliance With Section 409A.

(a) Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, no amount payable pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3 of the Agreement which constitutes a "deferral of compensation" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 409A (the "Section 409A Regulations") shall be paid unless and until Executive has incurred a Separation from Service. Furthermore, to the extent that Executive is a "specified employee" of the Company as of the date of Executive's Separation from Service, and to the extent required by the Section 409A Regulations,  no amount that constitutes a deferral of compensation which is payable on account of the Employee's Separation from Service shall be paid to Executive before the date (the "Delayed Payment Date")  which is the first day of the seventh month after the date of Executive's Separation from Service or, if earlier, the date of Executive's death following such Separation from Service. All such amounts that would, but for this paragraph, become payable prior to the Delayed Payment Date will be accumulated and paid on the Delayed Payment Date. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, the provision will be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Section 409A Regulations.

(b) The parties intend that the payments and benefits provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement be paid in compliance with Section 409A so that no excise tax is incurred under Section 409A. To the extent permitted by Section 409A and the Section 409A Regulations, the parties agree to modify this Agreement, the timing (but not the amount(s)) of the payments or benefits provided herein, or both, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A.

7. At-Will Employment. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that Executive's employment with the Company is and shall continue to be "at-will."

8. Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute or claim between the parties, including any claims relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the termination of Executive's employment with the Company for any reason, Executive and the Company agree that all such disputes shall be fully resolved by binding arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in Santa Clara County, under the AAA's National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect, which are available online at the AAA's website at www.adr.org. Executive and the Company each acknowledge and agree that they are waiving their respective rights to have any such disputes or claims tried by a judge or jury.

Page 5

Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or when received if mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid.
