On September 25, 2014, Unwired Planet, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a separation agreement with Eric Vetter (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Vetter intends to resign as the Company’s President and Chief Financial and Administrative Officer as of November 18, 2014 or such earlier date if the Company terminates Mr. Vetter’s employment or if Mr. Vetter resigns prior to November 18, 2014 (the earliest such date, the “Separation Date”). The Separation Agreement provides that upon the termination of Mr. Vetter’s employment (except if Mr. Vetter’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause or Mr. Vetter resigns without the Company’s consent, in each case, prior to November 18, 2014):

• all of his unvested restricted stock units shall automatically be accelerated so as to become immediately and completely vested;

• all of his unvested options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock shall terminate as of the Separation Date, and the post-termination exercise periods for all of his vested stock options shall be extended for an additional fifteen months for a total of eighteen months following the Separation Date;

• Mr. Vetter will be entitled to salary continuation for nine months commencing upon separation and will receive a bonus for the fiscal year 2014 in the amount of $243,750, less applicable withholdings; and

• Mr. Vetter will also be entitled to certain benefits continuation and outplacement assistance.

Mr. Vetter has agreed to continue working as the Company’s President and Chief Financial and Administrative Officer until the Separation Date. In addition, Mr. Vetter has agreed to make himself available following the Separation Date, on an as-needed basis, as a consultant at an agreed upon rate of $400 per hour.

Mr. Vetter had previously entered into an offer letter with the Company dated as of November 3, 2012 and a change of control severance agreement with the Company dated as of November 8, 2012 (collectively, the “Employment Arrangements”). The Separation Agreement supersedes and replaces the Employment Arrangements.

The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement is summary in nature and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Separation Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and which is incorporated herein by reference.
