This Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of May 13, 2013, by and among Quantum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the entities and natural persons listed onExhibit A hereto and their respective Affiliates (collectively, “Starboard”) (each of the Company and Starboard, a “Party” to this Agreement, and collectively, the “Parties”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company and Starboard have engaged in various discussions and communications concerning the Company’s business, assets and financial performance;
WHEREAS, Starboard is deemed to beneficially own shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) totaling, in the aggregate, 44,243,875 shares, including shares underlying the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes, or approximately seventeen percent (17.0%) of the Common Stock of the Company issued and outstanding on the date hereof; and
WHEREAS, the Company and Starboard have determined to come to an agreement with respect to the election of members of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) at the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “2013 Annual Meeting”) and certain other matters, as provided in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
1.Board Matters; Board Appointments; 2013 Annual Meeting.
(a) The Company agrees that the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions, effective immediately following the execution of this Agreement, to (i) increase the size of the Board from eight (8) members to nine (9) members, and (ii) appoint Jeffrey Smith (“Nominee One”) as a member of the Board. The Company further agrees that prior to the mailing of its definitive proxy statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions, subject to Section 1(d) and (j) below, to nominate Louis DiNardo (“Nominee Two”) and Philip Black (“Nominee Three,” and together with Nominee One and Nominee Two, the “Starboard Nominees”) for election to the Board at the 2013 Annual Meeting. During the Standstill Period (as defined below), the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall not increase the size of the Board to more than nine (9) directors.
(b) Upon the execution of this Agreement, Starboard hereby agrees not to (i) nominate any person for election at the 2013 Annual Meeting, (ii) submit any proposal for consideration at, or bring any other business before, the 2013 Annual Meeting, directly or indirectly, or (iii) initiate, encourage or participate in any “withhold” or similar campaign with respect to the 2013 Annual Meeting, directly or indirectly, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates or Associates to do any of the items in this Section 1(b). Starboard shall not publicly or privately encourage or support any other stockholder to take any of the actions described in this Section 1(b).
(c) The Company agrees that it will recommend, support and solicit proxies for the election of the Starboard Nominees at the 2013 Annual Meeting in the same manner as for the Company’s other nominees standing for election to the Board at the 2013 Annual Meeting.
(d) The Company agrees that if any of the Starboard Nominees or any Replacement Director (as defined below) is unable to serve as a director, resigns as a director or is removed as a director prior to the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the “2014 Annual Meeting”), and at such time Starboard beneficially owns in the aggregate, excluding shares of Common Stock underlying the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes, at least three percent (3.0%) of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reclassifications, combinations and similar adjustments), Starboard shall have the ability to recommend a substitute person(s) for approval by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board (the “Governance Committee”), in good faith after exercising its fiduciary duties, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld (any such replacement nominee recommended in accordance with the terms of this Section 1(d) shall be referred to as the “Replacement Director”). Any Replacement Director shall (i) other than in the case of a substitute for Nominee One, be independent of Starboard, (ii) qualify as “independent” pursuant to NYSE listing standards, as do Nominee Two and Nominee Three, and (iii) have relevant financial and business experience. In the event the Governance Committee does not accept a substitute person recommended by Starboard, Starboard will have the right to recommend additional substitute person(s), who meet the requirements of (i) through (iii) in the preceding sentence. Upon the recommendation of a Replacement Director nominee by the Governance Committee, the Board shall vote on the appointment of such Replacement Director to the Board no later than five (5) business days after the Governance Committee recommendation of such Replacement Director; provided, however, that if the Board does not elect such Replacement Director to the Board, the Parties shall continue to follow the procedures of this Section 1(d) until a Replacement Director is elected to the Board.
(e) At the 2013 Annual Meeting, Starboard agrees to appear in person or by proxy at the 2013 Annual Meeting and vote all shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it (i) in favor of the election of each of the Company’s nominees for election to the Board (ratably with respect to all nominees) and (ii) and in accordance with the Board’s recommendation with respect to the Company’s “say-on-pay” proposal, unless Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. recommends otherwise with respect to such “say-on-pay” proposal.
(f) Starboard agrees that it will cause its Affiliates and Associates to comply with the terms of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the terms “Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) and shall include all persons or entities that at any time during the term of this Agreement become Affiliates or Associates of any person or entity referred to in this Agreement.
(g) As of the date of this Agreement, each of Nominee Two and Nominee Three is appointed as an observer to the Board (the “Board Observers”) until the 2013 Annual Meeting. Each of the Board Observers will (i) receive copies of all notices and written information furnished to the full Board, reasonably in advance of each meeting to the extent practicable, and (ii) be permitted to be present at all meetings of the full Board (whether by telephone or in person). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the Company shall be entitled to withhold any information and exclude the Board Observers from any meeting, or any portion thereof, as is reasonably determined by the Company to be necessary to protect the Company’s attorney-client privilege, or as otherwise may be appropriate until the Board Observers are elected to the Board, and (B) the Board Observers shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company with respect to the information and discussions to which the Board Observers will have access.
2
(h) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to hold the 2013 Annual Meeting no later than September 15, 2013.
(i) The Company agrees that promptly following the date hereof, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days from the date hereof, the Board will take all action necessary to cause the appointment of Nominee One to the Leadership and Compensation Committee of the Board. The Company further agrees that promptly following the conclusion of the 2013 Annual Meeting, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days thereafter, the Board will take all action necessary to cause (i) the appointment of Nominee Two as chairman of the Governance Committee of the Board and (ii) the appointment of the Nominee Three to the Audit Committee of the Board.
(j) Starboard agrees to obtain from Nominee One an irrevocable resignation letter pursuant to which Nominee One shall resign from the Board and all applicable committees thereof if at any time during the Standstill Period Starboard’s aggregate beneficial ownership of Common Stock, excluding shares of Common Stock underlying the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes, decreases to less than three percent (3.0%) of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reclassifications and similar adjustments). Also at such time, the right of Starboard pursuant to Section 1(d) to participate in the recommendation of a Replacement Director to fill the vacancy caused by any such resignation of Nominee One shall automatically terminate.
(k) Starboard shall cause each Starboard Nominee (and any Replacement Director) to agree in writing, during the term of any service as a director of the Company, (i) to comply with all policies, procedures, processes, codes, rules, standards and guidelines applicable to members of the Board, including, without limitation, the Company’s code of conduct, insider trading policy, its Regulation FD policy, its related party transactions policy and corporate governance guidelines and (ii) to keep confidential and not publicly disclose discussions and matters considered in meetings of the Board and Board committees, unless previously disclosed publicly by the Company. Each Starboard Nominee (and any Replacement Director), within five (5) business days of appointment to serve as a director, shall submit to the Company a fully completed copy of the Company’s standard director & officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director onboarding documentation required by the Company in connection with the appointment or election of new Board members.
2.Standstill Provisions.
(a) Starboard agrees that, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the date that is fifteen (15) business days prior to the deadline for the submission of stockholder nominations for the 2014 Annual Meeting pursuant to the Company’s bylaws or (ii) the date that is one hundred (100) days prior to the first anniversary of the 2013 Annual Meeting (the “Standstill Period”), neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Associates under its control or direction will, and it will cause each of such Affiliates and Associates not to, directly or indirectly, in any manner:
(i) engage in any solicitation of proxies or consents or become a “participant” in a “solicitation” as such terms are defined in Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act of proxies or consents (including, without limitation, any solicitation of consents that improperly seeks to call a special meeting of stockholders), in each case, with respect to securities of the Company;
(ii) form, join or in any way participate in any “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with respect to the Common Stock (other than a “group” that includes all or some of the persons identified onExhibit A, but does not include any other entities or persons not identified onExhibit A as of the date hereof); provided, however, that nothing herein shall
3
limit the ability of an Affiliate of Starboard to join the “group” following the execution of this Agreement, so long as any such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
(iii) deposit any Common Stock in any voting trust or subject any Common Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of any Common Stock, other than any such voting trust, arrangement or agreement solely among the members of Starboard and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement;
(iv) seek or encourage any person to submit nominations in furtherance of a “contested solicitation” for the election or removal of directors with respect to the Company or seek, encourage or take any other action with respect to the election or removal of any directors;

(viii) make any request or submit any proposal to amend the terms of this Agreement other than through non-public communications with the Company that would not be reasonably determined to trigger public disclosure obligations for any Party.
(b) Except as expressly provided in Section 1 or Section 2(a), each member of Starboard shall be entitled to:
(i) vote their shares on any other proposal duly brought before the 2013 Annual Meeting, or otherwise vote as each member of Starboard determines in its sole discretion; or
(ii) disclose, publicly or otherwise, how it intends to vote or act with respect to any securities of the Company, any stockholder proposal or other matter to be voted on by the stockholders of the Company and the reasons therefore; provided that, as applicable, all such activity is in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement.

5
issue a mutually agreeable press release (the “Mutual Press Release”) announcing certain terms of this Agreement, in the form attached hereto asExhibit B.

6.Specific Performance.

This Section 6 is not the exclusive remedy for any violation of this Agreement.
7.Expenses.
The Company shall reimburse Starboard for its reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred in connection with the matters related to the 2013 Annual Meeting, the filing of a Schedule 13D amendment in connection with this Agreement and the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, provided that such reimbursement shall not exceed thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) in the aggregate.
8.Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the Parties that the Parties would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such which may be hereafter declared invalid, void or unenforceable. In addition, the Parties agree to use their best efforts to agree upon and substitute a valid and enforceable term, provision, covenant or restriction for any of such that is held invalid, void or enforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits, with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement
7
in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable legal requirements, any claim that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.
11.Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party (including by means of electronic delivery or facsimile).
12.Entire Agreement; Amendment and Waiver; Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries.
This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties hereto with respect to its subject matter. There are no restrictions, agreements, promises, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings between the Parties other than those expressly set forth herein.

No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs, executors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns.

For purposes of thisSection 13, the Starboard Nominees shall not be deemed to be an agent, affiliate, officer, key employee or director of the Company or Starboard and no actions taken by any agent or other representative of a Party in any capacity other than as a representative of such Party shall be covered by this Agreement.
