Exhibit 10.10

PALANTIR TECHNOLOGIES INC.

SECURITY PROGRAM CONTINUATION AGREEMENT

This Security Program Continuation Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between Palantir Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) and Dr. Alexander Karp (the “Executive”), effective on the date of the Company’s signature below (the “Effective Date”).

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will terminate when all of the obligations under this Agreement have been satisfied or upon the written agreement of the parties.

2. At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law.

3. Company-Provided Security Continuation.

(a) Involuntary Termination. If Executive experiences an Involuntary Termination, then, subject to Section 8, the Company will provide Executive with Continuation Support at the Company’s expense until the earliest of (x) the expiration of thirty (30) months following Executive’s Involuntary Termination, (y) Executive’s death, or (z) Executive’s commencement or continuation of Competitor Service.

(b) Voluntary Termination. If Executive experiences a Voluntary Termination, then, subject to Section 8, the Company will provide Executive with Continuation Support at the Company’s expense until the earliest of (x) the expiration of fifteen (15) months following such Voluntary Termination, (y) Executive’s death, or (z) Executive’s commencement or continuation of Competitor Service.

(c) Other Termination. If Executive experiences an Other Termination, then, subject to Section 8, the Company will provide Executive with Continuation Support at the Company’s expense until the earliest of (x) the date one (1) month following such Other Termination, (y) Executive’s death, or (z) Executive’s commencement or continuation of Competitor Service that occurs upon or following his Other Termination (the earliest of such dates, the “Other Termination Support Cessation Date”).

(d) Notification of Competitor Service. Executive agrees to notify the Company prior to or immediately upon his commencement of Competitor Service or other employment or service to any person, entity or business other than the Company or an Affiliate or any continuation of Competitor Service or other employment or service to any person, entity or business other than the Company or an Affiliate.

4. Income Tax Gross-Up Payments.

(a) Gross-Up Payments. Subject to Section 8, for any Continuation Support provided to Executive pursuant to Section 3 (the “Company-Paid Continuation Support”), Executive will be entitled to receive a payment from the Company (each such payment, a “Gross-Up Payment”) as described herein if it is determined that the Company-Paid Continuation Support constitutes payments or benefits in the nature of compensation and subject to taxation. If owed, each Gross-Up Payment will be payable in an amount, determined by the Company, equal to (i) the U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state and local income, employment and social insurance taxes imposed on Executive solely as a direct result of receiving any Company-Paid Continuation Support that are determined to be payments or benefits in the nature of compensation and subject to taxation (the “Compensation-Based Tax Amount”), and (ii) an additional amount sufficient to pay Executive’s U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state, local income, employment and social insurance taxes, in each case, arising from the Compensation-Based Tax Amount paid to the Executive pursuant to this sentence. The Company may, in its discretion, decide to pay any or all Gross-Up Payments directly to the applicable taxing authority. For the avoidance of doubt, no tax gross-up payments will be made with respect to any “parachute payments” the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, with respect to any excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or as a result of the application of Section 409A.

(b) Calculation of Gross-Up Payments. The Company will select a professional services or law firm to calculate the Gross-Up Payments and make all of the determinations required to calculate such Gross-Up Payments. Each Gross-Up Payment will be calculated by such firm based on the highest marginal rates expected to apply to Executive for the applicable period in each jurisdiction in which the Executive is subject to taxation, as determined by such firm. The Company will request that such firm provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive as soon as practicable following the completion of each set of calculations. The Company will request that such firm use its reasonable best efforts to determine Gross-Up Payments on a monthly basis after the Termination, with a true-up determination to be completed as soon as practicable after the end of each of Executive’s taxable years in which Company-Paid Continuation Support is provided. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations required under this Section, the firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith determinations concerning the application of the Code and applicable U.S. and non-U.S tax rules and treaties. The Company and Executive will furnish to the firm such information and documents as the firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company will bear all costs the firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section. Any such determination by the firm will be binding upon the Company and Executive, and the Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the firm.

(c) Timing of Gross-Up Payments. Subject to the following sentence, any Gross-Up Payment owed will be paid as soon as reasonably practicable following the date the Gross-Up Payment amount (or applicable portion thereof) is determined. Each Gross-Up Payment is intended to constitute a gross-up payment within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(v) and, as such, each Gross-Up Payment that is payable under this Agreement will be made no later than the end of Executive’s taxable year next following his taxable year in which Executive remits the related taxes to the taxing authorities

5. Executive-Paid Elective Security Continuation.

(a) Maximum Voluntary Continuation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Company-Paid Continuation Support is provided for fifteen (15) months following Executive’s Voluntary Termination pursuant to clause (x) of Section 3(b), then, subject to Section 8, upon the expiration of such fifteen (15) month period (the “Initial Period Expiration”), at the election of Executive, the Company will continue to provide Executive with Continuation Support, at Executive’s expense, for up to an additional fifteen (15) months from the Initial Period Expiration, but terminating earlier upon the earliest of occur of (x) Executive’s death, or (y) Executive’s commencement or continuation of Competitor Service.

(b) Election. Any such election must be made by Executive and noticed to the Company at least one month prior to the Initial Period Expiration. After Executive’s initial election to receive Continuation Support at his expense, Executive may at any time provide the Company notice that he wishes to cancel such Continuation Support, which cancellation shall be effective at the end of the month in which such cancellation notice is provided to the Company or such other time as the Company and Executive may agree. For the avoidance of doubt, no Gross-Up Payments will be made with respect to Executive’s costs for Continuation Support elected under this Section.

(c) Invoices. If Executive elects Continuation Support at his expense pursuant to this Section, the Company will determine, from time to time, the cost of the Continuation Support. The Company will provide Executive with a monthly invoice for the cost of the Continuation Support for the prior month. Executive will pay each invoice in full within thirty (30) days following the date of such invoice.

6. Termination Generally. If Executive’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates ceases in connection with substantially concurrent re-employment with an Affiliate, then no Termination will have occurred for purposes of this Agreement, no Company-Paid Continuation Support shall be applicable with respect to such cessation of employment, and any Continuation Support then provided shall immediately cease, until, and subject to, a termination with respect to his employment with all Affiliates (but otherwise on the terms and conditions of this Agreement).

7. Exclusive Remedy; Other Post-Termination Expenses.

(a) Exclusive Remedy. In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates, the provisions of Sections 3, 4 and 5 are intended to be and are the exclusive rights and remedies of the Executive with respect to the provision of security services by the Company and in lieu of any other rights or remedies related thereto to which Executive or the Company may otherwise be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, in equity, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the parties.

(b) Other Post-Termination Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and for the avoidance of doubt, following Executive’s Termination for any reason, (i) Executive shall be solely responsible for his own travel expenses, and (ii) the Company’s obligation to pay travel expenses of other individuals as part of the Continuation Support shall be limited to reasonable expenses consistent with comparable expenses incurred and approved during Executive’s employment with the Company.

-3-

8. Conditions to Receipt of Continuation Support and Gross-Up Payments.

(a) Change in Designation of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if within thirty (30) days after Executive’s Involuntary Termination or Voluntary Termination, the Board determines, in good faith, that grounds for Termination for Cause existed prior to Executive’s Termination, then (x) Executive’s Termination will retroactively be deemed an Other Termination, and (y) any Continuation Support provided under Section 3(a) or Section 3(b), as applicable, will end immediately upon the Other Termination Support Cessation Date or, if later, thirty (30) days after the date of such Board determination, and Executive will have no rights to elect to receive Continuation Support at his expense pursuant to Section 5.

(b) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. The receipt of any Company-Paid or Executive-Paid Continuation Support pursuant to Section 3 or Section 5 and any Gross Up Payments pursuant to Section 4 is explicitly conditioned on Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (which may include an agreement not to disparage the Company and any Affiliate, non-solicit provisions, an agreement to assist in any litigation matters, and other standard terms and conditions) (the “Release”) and provided that such Release becomes effective and irrevocable no later than sixty (60) days following the date of Executive’s Termination (such deadline, the “Release Deadline”). Due to the critical nature of the Continuation Support for Executive’s personal safety, except as required by Section 8(c), the Company will provide any Continuation Support and Gross-Up Payments that, but for the fulfillment of the Release requirement, would be due to Executive pursuant to Sections 3, 4 or 5 beginning at or as soon as practicable following his Termination. If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, (x) the provision of any such Continuation Support and Gross-Up Payments will cease immediately following the Release Deadline and (y) Executive will forfeit any rights to further Continuation Support, whether Company or Executive-Paid, and Gross-Up Payments.

(c) Section 409A.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Deferred Benefits will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. References to the termination of Executive’s employment or similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

-4-

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then no Deferred Benefits that otherwise are payable within the first six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service, will, to the extent required to be delayed pursuant to Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, become payable or be provided at the Company’s expense until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service (the period during which the Deferred Benefits are delayed, the “Delay Period”). However, due to the critical nature of the Continuation Support for Executive’s personal safety, during the Delay Period, if and to the extent Executive otherwise would have been entitled to receive Company-Paid Continuation Support during the Delay Period, Executive may elect to receive Continuation Support at Executive’s expense for the duration of the Delay Period, and Executive will pay all costs associated with such Continuation Support directly to the Security Program providers on their regular payment schedule; provided that if the Company is directly providing any of the Security Program benefits, Executive will pay the Company any costs to the Company in advance of receiving such services. If Executive elects Continuation Support at his expense pursuant to the prior sentence, the Company will determine the cost of the Continuation Support provided directly by the Company, which determination may be made, if and to the extent the Company deems appropriate, after consultation by the Company with the Security Assessment Team. Immediately following the expiration of the Delay Period, the Company will reimburse Executive for all costs paid by Executive for Continuation Support pursuant to the foregoing sentences, and will pay any related Gross-Up Payments. All subsequent Deferred Benefits, if any, due after the expiration of the Delay Period will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Executive dies following Executive’s separation from service, but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then the Delay Period will be deemed for all purposes to end on the date of Executive’s death. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(iii) The foregoing provisions and all compensation and benefits provided for under this Agreement are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to so comply. The Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to Executive under Section 409A. In no event will the Company reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless Executive for any taxes, penalties and interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A

9. Limitation on Payments.

(a) If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive under this Agreement or from the Company, an Affiliate or any other party whether in connection with the provisions herein or otherwise (the “Payment”) 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 Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The “Best Results Amount” will be either (x) the full amount of such Payment or (y) such

-5-

lesser amount as would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: (i) reduction of cash payments, which shall occur in reverse chronological order such that the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced; (ii) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (iii) reduction of acceleration of vesting of equity awards, which shall occur in the reverse order of the date of grant for such stock awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted stock awards will be reduced first); and (iv) reduction of other benefits paid or provided to Executive, which shall occur in reverse chronological order such that the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced. If more than one equity award was made to Executive on the same date of grant, all such awards shall have their acceleration of vesting reduced pro rata. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent the Company submits any payment or benefit payable to Executive under this Agreement or otherwise to the Company’s stockholders for approval in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G1 Q&A 7, then the 280G Amounts will be treated in accordance with the results of such vote; provided that any reduction in, or waiver of, such payments or benefits required by such vote will be applied without any application of discretion by Executive and in the order prescribed by this Section. In no event shall Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of payment reductions.

(b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability. The Company will select a professional services or law firm to make all of the determinations required to be made under these paragraphs relating to parachute payments. The Company will request that such firm provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive prior to the date on which the event that triggers the Payment occurs if administratively feasible, or subsequent to such date if events occur that result in parachute payments to Executive at that time. For purposes of making the calculations required under these paragraphs relating to parachute payments, the firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith determinations concerning the application of the Code and applicable U.S. and non-U.S tax rules and treaties. The Company and Executive will furnish to the firm such information and documents as the firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under these paragraphs relating to parachute payments. The Company will bear all costs the firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by these paragraphs relating to parachute payments. Any such determination by the firm will be binding upon the Company and Executive, and the Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the firm.
