Without limiting the foregoing, Xxxxxx shall have sixty (60) days from the conclusion of the Consulting Period to submit all outstanding business expenses, if any, with appropriate documentation for reimbursement by the Company. Failure to submit documented business expenses for reimbursement within this time period shall be considered a representation by Xxxxxx that he has been reimbursed for all business expenses.

5. Benefits: Xxxxxx understands and acknowledges that, following the Transition Date, he shall be entitled to no benefits from the Company other than those expressly set forth in Section 2 (as applicable).  

5

6. Indemnification. The Company agrees to provide indemnification to Xxxxxx with respect to any claim or claims against Xxxxxx arising out of or relating to any consulting or other types of services Xxxxxx provides pursuant to or relating to this Separation Agreement, with such indemnification to be on terms substantially similar to those provided to him under the Company’s bylaws, charter, other corporate or organizational documents, and the Indemnification Agreement.

7. No Admission: This Agreement constitutes a mutually acceptable vehicle for effecting Xxxxxx’x departure from the Company and shall not be used or treated or deemed to be an admission of liability or responsibility on the part of any released person or entity, including the Xxxxxx Parties.

8. Confidentiality: Xxxxxx agrees that on or promptly following the Transition Date, he will return all Company property, both physical and electronic, as the Company may request, and that, subject to Section 9, during the Consulting Period and thereafter, he will not use or disclose to any person, agency, company, business or organization, unless authorized by the Company, any confidential or proprietary information concerning the Company, including but not limited to any inventions, discoveries, know-how, improvements, processes, products, services, proposals, solicitations, negotiations, customers, manner and method of operations, trade secrets, business plans, financial information, salary information of other Company employees and the like.  This statement is not meant to prohibit Xxxxxx from discussing the terms or conditions of Xxxxxx’x Consulting Services.  Xxxxxx understands that confidential information may be submitted to Xxxxxx by other persons or businesses and agrees to treat that confidential information with the same degree of care afforded to confidential information proprietary to the Company.

9. Permitted Disclosures: Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b), Xxxxxx understands that Xxxxxx will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret of the Company that (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to Xxxxxx’x attorney and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding.  Xxxxxx understands that if Xxxxxx files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Xxxxxx may disclose the trade secret to Xxxxxx’x attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Xxxxxx (x) files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and (y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.  Nothing in this Agreement, or any other agreement that Xxxxxx has with the Company, is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by such section.  Further, nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement that Xxxxxx has with the Company shall prohibit or restrict Xxxxxx from (A) making any voluntary disclosure of information or documents concerning possible violations of law to any governmental agency or legislative body, or any self-regulatory organization, in each case, without advance notice to the Company; or (B) responding to a valid subpoena, court order or similar legal process; provided, however, that prior to making any such disclosure pursuant to this Section 8(B), Xxxxxx shall provide the Company with written notice of the subpoena, court order or similar legal process sufficiently in advance of such disclosure to

6

afford the Company a reasonable opportunity to challenge the subpoena, court order or similar legal process.

10. Non-Disparagement: Xxxxxx agrees that he shall not disparage the Company or its officers, directors, employees, products or services.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement will prohibit Xxxxxx from making permitted disclosures pursuant to Section 9.  Similarly, the Company agrees that it shall not disparage Xxxxxx.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Xxxxxx shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of any payments under this Agreement which are subject to Section 409A until Xxxxxx would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A. Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation under Section 409A, and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement or any other arrangement between Xxxxxx and the Company during the six-month period immediately following Xxxxxx’x separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following Xxxxxx’x separation from service (or, if earlier, Xxxxxx’x date of death).

11

such payment. Xxxxxx shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A.

19. Entire Agreement; Miscellaneous: This Agreement, together with any employment, confidentiality, proprietary rights, and dispute resolution agreements between Xxxxxx and the Company, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and, effective as of the Effective Date, supersede all prior negotiations and agreements, whether written or oral. This Agreement may not be altered or amended except by a written document signed by Xxxxxx and an authorized representative of the Company. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts.
