Re:              EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Dear Michael:

Your employment with MINDBODY, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), shall be governed by the following terms and conditions (this “ Agreement ”):

1. Duties and Scope of Employment .

(a) Term . Your anticipated start date is expected to be June 19, 2017 and this Agreement will be effective as of your actual start date (the “ Effective Date ”) and will continue through the three (3) year anniversary of the Effective Date (the “ Initial Term Expiration Date ” and such period, the “ Initial Term ”); provided that upon the Initial Term Expiration Date, and each subsequent three (3) year anniversary of such date, if applicable, the term of your employment under this Agreement will automatically by extended by three (3) years (each such extension, an “ Additional Term ”), unless either party hereto provides the other party with written notice as least ninety (90) days before the Initial Term Expiration Date, or such subsequent three (3) year anniversary of such date, if applicable, of such party’s decision not to extend the term of employment under this Agreement any further. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, (a) if a Change in Control occurs when there are fewer than twelve (12) months remaining during the Initial Term or an Additional Term, the term of this Agreement will extend automatically through the date that is twelve (12) months following the effective date of the Change in Control, or (b) if an initial occurrence of an act or omission by the Company constituting the grounds for Good Reason (as defined below) has occurred (the “ Initial Grounds ”), and the expiration date of the Company cure period (as such term is used in the Good Reason definition) with respect to such Initial Grounds could occur following the expiration of the Initial Term or an Additional Term, then unless otherwise agreed to by you and the Company in writing, the term of this Agreement will extend automatically through the date that is thirty (30) days following the expiration of such cure period, but such extension of the term shall only apply with respect to the Initial Grounds. If you become entitled to benefits under Section 6(b) during the term of this Agreement, the Agreement will not terminate until all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied . Notwithstanding the forgoing, your employment under this Agreement may be terminated at any time before or after the Initial Term Expiration Date or during any Additional Term, in accordance with Section 5 below. For avoidance of doubt, the decision by either party not to extend the term of employment under this Agreement will not by itself constitute a termination of employment by the Company without Cause (as defined below) or grounds for your resignation for Good Reason (as defined below), and unless determined otherwise by you or the Company, after such non-renewal, your employment will continue on an at-will basis outside of this Agreement and you will not be eligible for any severance under this Agreement.

(b) Position and Responsibilities . For the term of your employment under this Agreement (the “ Employment Period ”), the Company agrees to employ you in the position of President. You will report to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. You will perform the duties and have the responsibilities and authority customarily performed and held by an employee in your position or as otherwise may be assigned or delegated to you by the Chief Executive Officer.

(c) Obligations to the Company . During the Employment Period, you shall perform your duties faithfully and to the best of your ability and will devote your full business efforts and time to the Company. During the Employment Period, without the prior written approval of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “ Board ”), you shall not render services in any capacity to any other person or entity and shall not act as a sole proprietor or partner of any other person or entity or own more than five percent (5%) of the stock of any other corporation, except that stock that you hold as a passive investment in a non-competitive company will be exempt from this limitation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may serve on corporate boards of a non-competitive company, civic or charitable boards or committees, deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements, teach at educational institutions, or manage personal or family investments without such advance written consent; provided that, with respect to corporate boards, you notify the Board in advance and such positions are not in conflict with the interests of the Company, and with respect to such other activities, they do not individually or in the aggregate materially interfere with the performance of your duties under this Agreement. You shall comply with the Company’s policies and rules, as they may be in effect from time to time and provided to you during the Employment Period.

(d) No Conflicting Obligations . You represent and warrant to the Company that you are under no obligations or commitments, whether contractual or otherwise, that are inconsistent with your obligations under this Agreement. In connection with your employment, you shall not knowingly use or disclose any trade secrets or other proprietary information or intellectual property in which you or any other person has any right, title or interest and to the best of your knowledge, your employment during the Employment Period will not infringe or violate the rights of any other person. You represent and warrant to the Company that you have returned all property and confidential information belonging to any prior employer.

2. Cash and Incentive Compensation .

(a) Base Salary . The Company shall pay you as compensation for your services a base salary at a gross annual rate of $400,000, less all required tax withholdings and other applicable deductions, in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll procedures. The annual compensation specified in this subsection (a), together with any modifications in such base compensation that the Company may make from time to time, is referred to in this Agreement as your “ Base Salary .” Your Base Salary will be subject to review and adjustments that will be made based upon the Company’s normal performance review practices. Effective as of the date of any change to your Base Salary, the Base Salary as so changed shall be considered the new Base Salary for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Cash Incentive Bonus . You will be eligible to receive incentive payments under the Company’s Executive Bonus Plan or other applicable bonus plan in use by the Company (the “ Cash Bonus ”), paid after the close of the applicable performance period based upon performance of the Company relative to financial and other performance goals as reasonably established by, and in the sole discretion of, the Board or any Compensation Committee of the Board (the “ Committee ”), as applicable. The target amount for your Cash Bonus will be 75% of your Base Salary (your “ Target Bonus ”), but pro-rated based on the portion of 2017 that you were employed by the Company, less all required tax withholdings and other applicable deductions. Your Target Bonus for any subsequent year may be adjusted up or down, as determined in the sole discretion of the Board or the Committee, as applicable. Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable bonus plan, you shall not earn a Cash Bonus, unless you are employed by the Company on the date when such Cash Bonus is actually paid by the Company. In addition, the Board and/or the Committee reserves the right to pay discretionary bonuses in its sole discretion.

The term of the Option shall be ten (10) years, subject to earlier expiration in the event of the termination of your services to the Company. Participation in MINDBODY’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”) is subject to the Plan and any amendments thereto, and conditioned upon your execution of a restricted stock unit agreement (the “ RSU Agreement ”) and a stock option agreement (the “ Option Agreement ”).  The terms and conditions of the RSUs are governed by the Plan and the RSU Agreement. The terms and conditions upon which the Option may be exercised, including, if at all, after termination of your employment, are governed by the Plan and the Option Agreement.

You will continue to be eligible to receive awards of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units and performance shares or other equity awards (“ Awards ”) pursuant to any plans or arrangements the Company may have in effect from time to time.

5. Termination .

(a) Employment at Will . Your employment shall be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company shall be entitled to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause or notice. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you shall be superseded by this Agreement.

6. Termination Benefits .

(a) Termination Without Cause, Resignation for Good Reason or Termination on Account of Death or Disability Unrelated to a Change in Control . If outside of the Change in Control Period, the Company (or any parent or subsidiary or successor of the Company) terminates your employment with the Company without Cause, you resign from your employment for Good Reason, or your employment terminates on account of your death or disability (each, a “ Qualifying Termination ”), then, in each case, subject to Section 7 you will be entitled to:

(i) receive continuing payments of severance pay at a rate equal to your Base Salary, as then in effect, for twelve (12) months from the date of such termination of employment (the Continuation Period ”). Severance payments under this subsection (i) will be reduced by all required tax withholdings and other applicable deductions and will be paid in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll procedures commencing on the Release Deadline (as defined in Section 7(a)); provided that the first payment shall include any amounts that would have been paid to you if payment had commenced on the date of your separation from service;

(ii) if you timely elect continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“ COBRA ”) for you and your eligible dependents, within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA, the Company will reimburse you for the COBRA premiums for such coverage (at the coverage levels in effect immediately prior to your termination of employment) for you and your covered dependents until the earliest of (A) twelve (12) months from the date of such termination of employment, (B) the expiration of your continuation coverage under COBRA or (C) the date when you receive substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment; provided that such benefits shall be taxable to you to the extent advisable under Section 105(h) of the Code;

(iii) Notwithstanding Section 6(a)(ii), if the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA benefit without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company will in lieu thereof provide you a taxable payment, payable on the same schedule as payments under Section 6(a)(i), in an aggregate amount equal to the twelve (12) months of the COBRA premium that you would be required to pay to continue your group health coverage in effect on the termination of employment date (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), which payments will be made regardless of whether you elect COBRA continuation coverage. For the avoidance of doubt, the taxable payments in lieu of COBRA reimbursements may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to all applicable tax withholdings; and

(iv) If the Qualifying Termination meets the criteria of a New CEO Qualifying Termination, then time-based shares subject to Awards will accelerate and vest as if you completed an additional 18 months of service after the New CEO Qualifying Termination date.

(b) Termination Without Cause, Resignation for Good Reason or Termination on Account of Death or Disability in Connection with a Change in Control . If during the Change in Control Period, you experience a Qualifying Termination, then subject to Section 7, you will be entitled to the benefits as provided in Section 6(a) and additionally 100% of the then-unvested shares subject to Awards shall immediately vest. If, however, an outstanding Award is to vest, and/or the number of shares or amount of the Award to vest is to be determined based on the achievement of performance criteria, then the Award will vest as to then-outstanding shares the number of shares or the amount of the Award assuming the performance criteria had been achieved at 100% of target levels for the relevant performance period(s).

(c) Termination for Cause or Resignation without Good Reason . If your employment with the Company (or any parent or subsidiary or successor of the Company) terminates voluntarily by you without Good Reason, or for Cause by the Company, then (i) all vesting will terminate immediately with respect to your outstanding Awards; (ii) all payments of compensation by the Company to you hereunder will terminate immediately (except as to amounts already earned); and (iii) you will only be eligible for severance benefits in accordance with the Company’s established policies, if any, as then in effect.

The Release will not include (i) a non-compete covenant or (ii) other restrictive covenants that are not legal under applicable law. If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, you will forfeit any rights to termination benefits under this Agreement. In no event will termination benefits be paid or provided until and unless the Release becomes effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline.

(b) Nonsolicitation . The receipt of any termination benefits pursuant to Section 6 will be subject to you not violating the provisions of Section 9.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of your separation from service (other than due to death), then the termination benefits to be paid or provided to you, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other termination benefits, are considered deferred compensation not exempt under Section 409A (together, the “ Deferred Payments ”) that are payable within the first six (6) months following your separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of your separation from service.
