To rebalance the Board of Directors following
the resignation of William C. Styslinger, III, effective as of April 30, 2012 Carlo Salvatori resigned as a Class II Director of
SeaChange, and, upon recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, the Board elected Mr. Salvatori as a
Class I Director of SeaChange (with a term to expire at the 2012 annual meeting).  Mr. Salvatori continues to serve as
a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
(e)
Appointment of Raghu Rau as Permanent Chief Executive Officer
On April 30, 2012, the Board of Directors
of SeaChange appointed Raghu Rau, currently serving as interim Chief Executive Officer of SeaChange, as the permanent Chief Executive
Officer of SeaChange, effective May 1, 2012.
Mr. Rau, 63, has been a member of the SeaChange
Board of Directors since 2010 and had been serving as the interim Chief Executive Officer of SeaChange since November 30, 2011.
Mr. Rau has served on the Board of Directors of Aviat Networks, Inc. since November 2010, and previously served on the Board of
Directors of Microtune, Inc., prior to its acquisition by Zoran, Inc., from May 2010 to December 2010.  From 1992 to
2008, Mr. Rau held a number of positions with Motorola, Inc.
The selection of Mr. Rau to serve as
Chief Executive Officer was not pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with respect to any other person.  In addition,
there are no family relationships between Mr. Rau and any director or other executive officer of SeaChange and there are no
related persons transactions between SeaChange and Mr. Rau reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
In connection with the appointment of Mr.
Rau as Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee and Board agreed to pay Mr. Rau an annual base salary of $500,000 per
year and to make a one-time equity award of 60,827 restricted stock units (RSUs), to vest over three years, and 875,000 stock options,
to vest in increments based upon the closing price of SeaChange's common stock. In addition, Mr. Rau will participate in
SeaChange's fiscal 2013 compensation and bonus plan, described below, with a target bonus of $1,250,000, with $500,000 payable
in cash and $750,000 payable in RSUs. In addition, Mr. Rau will receive certain reimbursement for relocation expenses and certain
expenses incurred by Mr. Rau while serving as interim Chief Executive Officer.
In addition, it was agreed that if the employment
of Mr. Rau is terminated by SeaChange without cause (other than on account of death or disability) and Mr. Rau is not otherwise
entitled to payment under his Change-in-Control Agreement (described below), Mr. Rau will be entitled to a one-time payment in
an amount equal to Mr. Rau's base salary plus annual bonus, and the acceleration of vesting of unvested RSUs and stock option
awards, other than those that have vesting provisions based on the achievement of performance and/or market price targets that
shall only vest to the extent such targets have been achieved as of the termination date.
In connection with assuming this position,
Mr. Rau and SeaChange will enter into a Change-in-Control Severance Agreement (the "Change-in-Control Agreement"),
effective April 30, 2012, the terms of which are substantially similar to those agreements previously entered into by SeaChange
with its other senior executive officers and described in SeaChange's 2011 proxy statement.  The form of Mr. Rau's
Change-in-Control Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 attached hereto.
The Change-in-Control Agreement is designed
to provide an incentive to Mr. Rau to remain with SeaChange leading up to and following a change in control.
Immediately prior to a change in control,
all of Mr. Rau's unvested stock options and stock appreciation rights automatically vest and become immediately exercisable
and any and all restricted stock and restricted stock units then held by Mr. Rau shall fully vest and become immediately transferable
free of restriction, other than those imposed by applicable law.  In the event of a subsequent termination of Mr. Rau's
employment for any reason, all of Mr. Rau's stock options become exercisable for the lesser of (i) the remaining applicable
term of the particular stock option or (ii) three years from the date of termination.  If within one year following a
change in control the employment of Mr. Rau is terminated (i) by SeaChange other than for specified cause, death or disability,
or (ii) by Mr. Rau for specified good reason, Mr. Rau shall be entitled to the following: (a) two times Mr. Rau's annual
base salary plus one times Mr. Rau's annual bonus; (b) for a period of two years, continued health, life and disability
benefits; (c) outplacement services for up to one year following termination; (d) up to $5,000 of financial planning services;
and (e) accrued vacation pay.
The foregoing summary of the Change-in-Control
Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Change-in-Control Agreement attached
hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
Fiscal 2013 Compensation and Bonus Plans
On April 30, 2012, the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors of SeaChange established the fiscal year 2013 compensation and bonus plans (the "2013 Plans")
for Michael Bornak, Ira Goldfarb and Anthony Kelly, each a named executive officer of SeaChange.
The below-described 2013 Plans were established
by the Compensation Committee after giving consideration to compensation practices of SeaChange's peer companies, and commentary
regarding executive compensation trends and practices, including that published by Institutional Shareholder Services.
Mr. Bornak will be eligible for a target
bonus of $175,000, with $100,000 payable in cash and $75,000 payable in RSUs, and an option award of 25,000 options issuable subsequent
to each fiscal quarter subject to the achievement of individualized performance-based objectives. Mr. Goldfarb will be eligible
for a target bonus of $200,000, with $50,000 payable in cash and $150,000 payable in RSUs. Mr. Kelly will be eligible for a target
bonus of $300,000, with $75,000 payable in cash and $225,000 payable in RSUs.
This performance-based compensation is earned
based on SeaChange achieving overall company financial objectives for fiscal 2013 related to revenue and non-GAAP operating income.
In the case of each of Messrs. Bornak and Goldfarb, a portion of their respective bonus is based on individualized performance-based
objectives.
The bonuses are determined upon conclusion
of SeaChange's 2013 fiscal year, with the RSUs to vest in equal annual installments over three years, with the first tranche
vesting at the end of SeaChange's 2014 fiscal year.
The plans provide that the Compensation
Committee has the discretion to determine the amount, if any, of cash bonus and RSUs awarded under the plans, whether or not the
criteria are satisfied. The plans also provide that the amount of the cash bonus and RSUs awarded may be adjusted upward or downward
in predetermined amounts if actual performance exceeds or is below the target financial criteria, with a specified maximum upward
adjustment of fifteen percent above target based upon non-gaap operating income and ten percent above target based upon revenue.
