     WHEREAS, Bennett desires Intuit to repurchase such Shares to enable Bennett to satisfy his tax obligations,

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

  1.   Bennett hereby instructs the Escrow Holder (as defined in Section 6 of the Stock Purchase Agreements) to deliver on the date set forth above 17,532 Shares (the “REPURCHASED SHARES”) to Intuit, such shares being equal to the rounded up whole share amount representing 46.75% of the 37,500 Shares.
 
  2.   Bennett’s total taxable income (the “TOTAL TAXABLE INCOME”) on the First Vesting Date as a result of the vesting of the 37,500 Shares shall equal (i) the product obtained by multiplying the closing sales price on the Nasdaq National Market of a share of Intuit Common Stock on the date set forth above by 37,500 less (ii) the $0.01 per share price Bennett paid for the 37,500 Shares.
 
  3.   Bennett hereby instructs Intuit to transmit to (i) the U.S. Treasury 36% of the Total Taxable Income as Federal income tax withholding and 1.45% of the Total Taxable Income as required Medicare tax withholding and (ii) the State of California 9.3% of the Total Taxable Income as California State income tax withholding (the “TOTAL TAX WITHHOLDING”).
 
  4.   Intuit shall receive the Repurchased Shares in full satisfaction of its payment of the Total Taxable Income.

     IN WITNESS THEREOF, Intuit by its duly authorized representative and Bennett have executed this Agreement as of the date set forth above.
