`_ To: Mario Queiroz <mariog@google.com>, Brian Mendonca Cell <pmendonca@google.com>
`
`_ Hi Mario,
`
`Sundar is the Executive Sponsor for any deals with Microsoft; could you please secure Sundar’s approval to move
`forward with seeking a PlayReady license fram Microsoft?
`
`_
`
`| PlayReady is a proprietary DRM technology from Microsoft commonly used by content services like Netflix and Amazon
`_
`to protect content per Studio requirements. Google TV supports PlayReady, via a 2010 PR Master Agreement and also
`| a 2011 PR Development License we signed. For Google TV, we only needed a development license since our OEMs
`_
`like Sony and Vizio would license PR technology through a Final Distribution License which grants the OEM the right
`to sell devices using PR to users.
`
`For Eureka, since we're acting as the OEM, we'll have to contract with Microsoft via a Final Distribution License to
`_ distribute Eureka devices with PlayReady. Netflix requires PlayReady, so we cannot launch withoutthislicense.
`
`| Fees:
`Google pays $30K upfront
`,
`@
`Google pays a per-device fee, starting at $0.35/device in a waterfall royalty structure that decreases as the # of
`e
`devices increases down to $0.15 for > 8M units
`
`Google may recoup the per-device fee againstthe initial $30K until we go beyond $30K total royalties
`®
`Should we cancel before the 5-year term expires, we do not recoup the $30K
`@
`|
`| PM/ENG have signed off on all the additional compliance + robustness rules linked to from this contract.
`: Microsoft is a Top Partner, so we've filed a go/new deal and also had multiple discussions with Dave Rolefson as well as
`Sarah Longstreth (chrome product-counsel) about the contract. Pending Sudars email approvable to move forward,
`| Dave and Sarah have approved the contract.

`Re: Request for Google/Flextronics deal to be processed before EOY
`
`+ Rich who manages FMG
`
`Hi Mario and team,
`
`i'm not the expert / final decision maker on what requires deal review (which is why | looped in Rich here) but I'm happyto
`quickly summarize and opine as to whatfinancial commitments are being made to help the Compliance team make the
`call.
`| do agree that as GTV is now part of the Chrome & Apps PA, that YTX doesn't make sense but FMG may in some
`instances to get Sundar and Joan's review.
`
`Flextronics DSA: Google committing to a development schedule and price list for future Eureka inventory buys ($26.xx +
`accessories) + $52K in NRE + the payment process/timing. The actual orders for production materials will happen on
`POs and by exchanging demand forecasts between the two operations teams so there is not a large $$ commitmentin
`the agreementitself. The contractis still in negotiation and | had some questions aboutprice, offset rights, back-dating to
`July, and tooling cost estimates and they are currently being discussed by the team.
`| think an in-person FMG discussion
`would be valuable but is probably unlikely given the timing. Can also use ChromeOS as an example for how/wheretheir
`master agreements were discussed with the cross functional teams.
`
`Marvell: Google to receive a $3.30 commission / rebate from Marvell on the chips that they sell to Flextronics. Open
`questions on the contract include how the Flex / Marvell obligations are described and how the invoicing and tax will work
`on the rebate transaction but notlikely an FMG discussion required.
`
`Microsoft PlayReady: Google committing to pay $30K + $0.35 license per Eureka product sold (our goal in 2013 is 2.4M
`so ~$840K) so this cost scales with volume and is uncapped.
`| have not yet had time to provide questions to the deal
`team but at quick glance, the audit request could be challenging (we hardly ever grant this and not this broadly). FMG
`review is probably required based on the partner (MSFT) and uncapped payments, and potential overlap with other PAs.
`
`Netflix: have not yet reviewed - will follow up
`
`Thanks!

`Hi Priscilla.
`
`
`
`_ Since July, the Google TV team has been negotiating with Flextronics, our contract manufacturer for a new device
`| we're launching in 2013 called Eureka, with the goal offinalizing the agreement by EOY. We've already signed an
`| interim agreement (deal #143432), where the Master Agreement w/Flex for Google and the Interim Agreement for the
`| product were approved. This deal expands on the interim agreementto outline specific responsibilities such as
`_ componentpricing, testing, and all technical specifications for the hardware.
`
`| It's critical we get the deal closed by EOY sothat the work being done by both teams can continue to be on time and
`_ go that Googie is protected properly. We were unable to make the 12/14 deadline because the deal teams were
`_ focused on another massive deal between MMI/Google and Flextronics, which gated the completion of our Eureka
`| Device Specific Agreement.
`| We'll have a better sense of timing by Tuesday 12/18, but we expect verbal approval from both sides on language by
`| 12/19 Thursday, which will allow us to start deal folder by 12/19 or 12/20. We'll need help from the compliance team
`| and contract admin team to approve the deal, add other approvers, and do the final execution of the contract over the
`holidays.
`Please confirm anything else we need to do to have the proper support going into this week and next.

`Joan,
`
`Wedid build out the Eureka P&L through 2015 and Eureka is operating margin positive starting in Q@2 2015 Gust after two
`years, assuming we launch in Q?2 of 2013). Here is a slide that shows a detailed Eureka P&L through 2015.
`
`As the second slide in thatlink, I've also included the exercise Mario references below: how Eureka's could further
`produce upside by driving Play usage and YouTube monetization, as well as further negotiating the BOM and decreasing
`marketing spend once the product has ramped up. This of course is upside potential, and not included in the standalone
`P&L for Eureka.
`
`Best,
`Sri

`Joan, of course we'd like to have as good of a deal from msft as we can get. We're assuming the licensing cost in the
`fmg terms for our bom. We do have aggressive cost reduction plans across the bom. And our cost reduction plans
`should get us to operating margin positive after 2 years just with the eureka hardware. Wealso did an exerciseto identify
`what additional Google business we would need to generate to be safely profit positive, and there are very plausible
`options with advertising and digital content sales. Wallet revenue (something Larry asked for from eureka) is upside from
`there.
`
`This full story is what we got buy-in for from Patrick, Nikesh, and Larry as part of the chrome review. Hopefully we can
`get the fmg approval.
`
`Btw, my team is moving under Sundar this year.
`Thanks

`I'm not concerned aboutthe initial licensing terms with msft but from a business planning exercise if we
`cannot drive to a price which is net margin positive within 2 yrs, the question is at what point do we make money or we
`should be negotiating better pricing from the 3P in order to be profitable. As you look at the 15+ 3P licenses, we may
`need to negotiate better terms or be assured we can raise our prices to the consumer. Just want to ensure this is being
`looked at(it is also the reason Cloud pricing is being heavily reviewed for the same reason).

`Joan, | just landed from Brazil and will be on network to look at this in more detail a bit later. I'm copying Sri who may

`very aggressive scenario with a bigger loss but which Sundar and | decided to move away from. That may be the one
`you're referring to. We reviewed the most recent (less aggressive) bus plan with Jason Wheeler and with Patrick P.
`They both approved. The plan is gross-margin positive in year 1.
`
`Without a msft playready license we don't have a product since most major content partners build using playready

`| [reviewed this Microsoft PlayReady license that will be reviewed at FMG today. Question for you on the last slide
`_. which outlines the Base Investment in Eureka over the next two years - are we really expecting this productto
`| produce a loss of ~$100m over the next two years? Is there a business plan that shows when this starts to make
`_ moneyfor the company?
`= Itis hard for FMG to approve licensing terms to 3P that will make moneyfrom our distribution but for which Google
`_.
`loses money.
`(BTW - Urs made the same comment on the Cloud pricing produced by his team which showed a loss
`| as well so he did not approvethe licensing from MSFT or Amazon until the pricing/bus plan showed otherwise).
