WHEREAS, the form of this Support Agreement has been duly and validly approved by both the Qumu Board and a committee of disinterested directors of the Qumu Board formed in accordance with Section 302A.673 of the MBCA.
WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement for Qumu to enter into the Merger Agreement, Shareholder and Qumu are entering into this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1.Agreement to Vote Shares.
(a)Until the Expiration Date, at the Synacor Shareholder Meeting and at every other stockholder meeting of Synacor called to consider the Synacor Voting Proposal, and at every postponement or adjournment thereof, and on every action proposed to be approved by written consent of Synacor Shareholders with respect to any of the following, Shareholder shall vote all outstanding Shares and any outstanding New Shares (as defined in Section 4 hereof), to the extent (in the case of securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Synacor Common Stock) any such Shares and New Shares are capable of being voted:
(i)in favor of the approval of the issuance of shares of Synacor Common Stock in the Merger, and any proposal to adjourn or postpone any meeting of the stockholders of Synacor at which the issuance of shares of Synacor Common Stock in the Merger is submitted for the consideration and
        



vote of the stockholders of Synacor to a later date if there are not proxies representing a sufficient number of shares of Synacor Common Stock to approve such matters on the date on which the meeting is held;
(ii)against any Acquisition Proposal made by any Person (other than Qumu) and any Acquisition Transaction proposed by any Person (other than Qumu); and
(iii)against any other action, agreement or transaction involving Synacor or any of the Synacor Subsidiaries that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, adversely affect or prevent the consummation of the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
(b)Prior to the Expiration Date, Shareholder shall not enter into any agreement or understanding with any person to vote or give instructions in any manner inconsistent with this Section 1.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if Shareholder is a director or officer of Synacor, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or otherwise impair the right or ability of Shareholder to exercise his or her fiduciary duties in his or her capacity as a director or officer of Synacor, including by voting in his or her capacity as a director to effect a Synacor Board Recommendation Change, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.
2.Transfer and Encumbrance. Shareholder agrees, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Expiration Date (as defined below), not to sell, transfer, exchange, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber (collectively, “Transfer”) any Shares or any New Shares, in each case without the prior written consent of Qumu; provided, that nothing contained herein shall prohibit (a) the net settlement of Shareholder’s options to purchase shares of Synacor Common Stock (to pay the exercise price thereof and any tax withholding obligations), (b) the net settlement of Shareholder’s restricted stock units settled in shares of Synacor Common Stock (to pay any tax withholding obligations), (c) the exercise of Shareholder’s options to purchase shares of Synacor Common Stock, to the extent such options would expire prior to the Effective Time, (d) the exercise of Shareholder’s options to purchase shares of Synacor Common Stock or the receipt upon settlement of Shareholder’s restricted stock units, and the sale of a sufficient number of such shares of Synacor Common Stock acquired upon exercise of such options or settlement of such restricted stock units as would generate sales proceeds sufficient to pay the aggregate applicable exercise price of shares then exercised under such options and the taxes payable by Shareholder as a result of such exercise or settlement, (e) such Shareholder from selling Shares under any written plan providing for the trading of Shares in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (a “10b5-1 Plan”) that is described on the signature page hereto or which is put in place after the date hereof in order to replace an expired or expiring 10b5-1 Plan (provided, that any such 10b5-1 Plan shall be implemented in accordance with the requirements of Synacor’s insider trading policy and on substantially consistent terms as the expired or expiring 10b5-1 Plan, except as may be required to implement additional sales pursuant to the foregoing clause (d)), (f) any Transfer where such Shareholder retains sole direct and indirect voting control over such Shares or New Shares through the term of this Agreement, (g) any Transfer to an Affiliate of Shareholder, or (h) if Shareholder is an individual, (i) to any member of Shareholder’s immediate family or to a trust for the benefit of Shareholder or any member of Shareholder’s immediate family or (ii) to any person or entity if and to the extent required by any non-consensual legal order, by divorce decree or by will, intestacy or other similar law; provided, however, that in the case of the foregoing clauses (g) or (h)(i), any such Transfer shall only be permitted if and to the extent that the transferee of such Shares or New Shares agrees to be bound by and subject to the terms and provisions hereof to the same effect as the transferring Shareholder. Shareholder acknowledges that

the intent of the foregoing sentence is to ensure that the Shares and any New Shares are voted in accordance with the terms hereof.
3.No Participation in Litigation. Shareholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and use reasonable best efforts to, if requested by Qumu, take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against Synacor, Merger Sub, Qumu or any of their respective successors relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the Merger, including any claim (a) challenging the validity, or seeking to enjoin the operation, of any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or (b) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Synacor Board in connection with the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not restrict Shareholder from enforcing any of his, her or its rights under the Merger Agreement or this Agreement.
4.New Shares. Shareholder agrees that any shares of Synacor Common Stock that Shareholder purchases or with respect to which Shareholder otherwise acquires beneficial ownership after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Expiration Date, including, without limitation, shares issued or issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange, as the case may be, of all securities held by Shareholder that are convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Synacor Common Stock (“New Shares”), shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted Shares.
5.No Obligation to Exercise Options or Other Securities.

If such Shareholder is married and any of the Shares or New Shares constitute community property or spousal approval is otherwise necessary for this Agreement to be legal, valid, binding and enforceable, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Qumu, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of, such Shareholder’s spouse, enforceable in accordance with its terms except, in each case, as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar Legal Requirements affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.
