EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Exhibit 13.2

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, made as of May 11, 2011, between FUNCTION (X), INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Employer”), and XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Employer (the “Board”) has determined that it is in the Employer’s interest to enter into this Employment Agreement with the Executive in order to secure, and in the future to be assured of, the Executive’s abilities, services, and judgment as a member of senior management of the Employer, upon the terms and provisions and subject to the conditions stated in this agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Employer and the Executive agree as follows:

1. Employment. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this agreement, the Employer employs the Executive, and the Executive accepts employment.

2. Term; Dates.

2.1 The term of the Executive’s employment shall commence on the Effective Date and continue until sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of this agreement. Executive and Employer acknowledge and agree that the terms of employment of the Executive are “at will” and that this Agreement may be terminated by either Executive or Employer at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other.

2.2 This agreement refers to the dates defined in this section, as follows: (i) the date of commencement of employment pursuant to this agreement is the “Effective Date”; (ii) the period of time during which the Executive is an employee of the Employer pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this agreement is hereinafter referred to as the “Term”; (iii) each year which begins with the Effective Date (or with the anniversary of the Effective Date) and continues until the next anniversary of the Effective Date is hereinafter referred to as an “Employment Year”; and (iv) the last date of employment, for any reason, is the “Expiration Date.”

3. Executive’s Position, Duties, and Authority.

3.1 The Employer shall employ the Executive, and the Executive shall serve as Head of Business Development of the Employer, and in such other positions with the Employer and its subsidiaries that are reasonably acceptable to the Executive. The Executive shall have executive duties, functions, authority, and responsibilities commensurate with the office or offices the Executive from time to time holds with the Employer in a corporation that is public, subject, in accordance with applicable law, to the supervision and direction of the Chief Executive Officer, to whom Executive shall report.

3.2 The Executive agrees to tailor Executive’s conduct with the written employment policies which the Employer generally applies to all of its employees, and additionally agrees that the Employer may make necessary and reasonable amendments to its policies from time to time during the Term, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this agreement. The Executive and the Employer agree that these policies supplement, but do not amend or otherwise modify, the express terms of this agreement in the manner authorized by Section 17.5 of this agreement.

3.3 Executive acknowledges and agrees that his resume and other information given to Employer and his satisfaction and compliance with the Employer’s employment manual procedures in all material respects is a material consideration in Employer entering into this Agreement and Executive’s failure to do so would be a material breach of this Agreement.

4. Principal Occupation. The Executive shall devote Executive’s full working time to the business and affairs of the Employer and to the fulfillment of the duties under this agreement in a diligent and competent fashion.

4.1 The Employer acknowledges and agrees that during the Term:

(a) the Executive may continue or commence service as a director and officer (or in a similar capacity) on the governing or advisory board of other business entities whose business is not competitive with that of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries and shall not involve a time commitment which shall impair Executive’s ability to perform the duties required hereunder; and

(b) the Executive agrees that Executive’s commencement or continuation of service as described in Section 4.1(a) shall be subject to the review and approval of the Employer’s Board (based on the criteria of competitiveness and time commitment), so long as the Board’s discretion is not applied unreasonably.

Where the Board withdraws its approval for the continuation of the Executive’s service as described in Section 4.1(a), the Executive agrees that Executive shall promptly resign from such position. The Executive and Employer agree that nothing in this Section 4.1 applies to the Executive’s membership or contribution of Executive’s non-working time or services, in a non-remunerative capacity, to any: charitable or educational organization, foundation, or association; political organization or campaign; religious group, foundation, or organization; or non-profit trade, professional, community, or recreational organization or club, so long as the purpose or aim of any such organization presents no conflict with the business of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries, as determined by the Board.

4.2 The Employer acknowledges and agrees that during the Term, the Executive may devote a portion of Executive’s business time to personal investments and outside business commitments, provided, however that: (a) such activities do not conflict with the business of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries, (b) such activities do not interfere, directly or indirectly, with the performance by the Executive of Executive’s obligations under this agreement, and (c) such activities do not result in a breach by the Employer of any non-competition or any other similar type of agreement to which the Employer or any of its subsidiaries may be a party.

4.3 No provision of this agreement shall be construed to prohibit the Executive’s: (a) acquisition, ownership, or trading, including without limitation the Executive’s indirect ownership, of less than two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding stock (or comparable bonds, options, derivatives, or negotiable instruments) of a business entity having securities publicly traded anywhere in the world, provided, however, that the ownership limitations of this clause (a) shall not apply to (i) the Executive’s ownership of any such securities through an open-end mutual fund or (ii) the Executive’s ownership of any such securities that precedes the Effective Date if, but only if, the issuer of the securities is not a competitor of the Employer; or (b) passive ownership of stock, partnership interests, or comparable ownership interests or securities in any for-profit private business entity that is not directly competitive with the business of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries. The Employer additionally agrees that nothing in this agreement shall operate to prohibit the Executive’s acceptance of a testamentary gift, bequest, or its equivalent, nor the Executive’s retention of any such gift, bequest, or its equivalent following its delivery, so long as the Executive retains the interest(s) solely for investment purposes.

5. Location of Employment.

5.1 Unless the Executive otherwise consents in writing, the usual place for the performance of Executive’s services shall be the Employer’s principal office located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, or such other location within the New York/New Jersey/Connecticut metropolitan area (the “Metropolitan Area”), as established by the Employer.

5.2 Executive agrees that he will relocate to the Metropolitan Area. The Employer shall reimburse him for his actual reasonable and necessary expenses associated with this relocation, including temporary lodging for four (4) months (but the total of these housing expenses shall not exceed Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000.00)), and for moving expenses for Employee’s furniture and personal effects by a national moving company (subject to Employer’s reasonable review and preapproval of the moving estimates).

5.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the nature of the Executive’s position and overall responsibilities with the Employer shall require the Executive to travel within and without the United States from time to time during the Term and such travel may for extended periods of time.

6. Base Salary.

6.1 During the Term, the Employer shall pay to the Executive an initial annualized base salary, payable in equal installments during each Employment Year equal to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000), payable in accordance with the Employer’s ordinary payroll practices. The Board shall review the Executive’s base salary at least annually at the end of each Employment Year, and the Board shall have the right, but not the obligation, to increase the base salary in its sole discretion (such annual base salary, as it may be increased from time to time, the “Base Salary”).

6.2 For each Employment Year, at the election of the Executive, the Base Salary may be payable in cash or in shares of common stock of the Employer (or any combination thereof), provided, however, that if the Executive elects to have some Base Salary paid in shares of common stock of the Employer, a portion thereof nevertheless shall be payable in cash rather than in shares in an amount sufficient to cover applicable withholding and employment taxes on such Base Salary in accordance with Section 17.9 hereof as well as any pre-tax amounts required to be withheld pursuant to the Executive’s participation in the employee benefit plans and programs described in Section 9.2 hereof. Each such election shall be available to the Executive so long as the Employer’s common stock is publicly traded at the commencement of each Employment Year and through the Price Determination Period (as defined below), and each such election shall be made in writing and at the commencement of each Employment Year, provided that if the Executive fails to validly make any such election, the Base Salary for the applicable Employment Year shall be paid automatically in cash. For each Employment Year, the issue price of each share of common stock (the “Share Price”) shall be equal to the weighted average price of a share of common stock for the first twenty (20) trading days of such Employment Year (the “Price Determination Period”), and the total amount of shares of common stock issuable to the Executive for such Employment Year shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Base Salary for such Employment Year by the applicable Share Price. The grant of all such shares of common stock shall be made as of the first day of such Employment Year and shall vest in accordance with the Employer’s ordinary payroll practices, provided that the actual number of shares on each vesting date shall be reduced by an amount equal to the cash amount(s) required to be withheld in accordance with the proviso of the first sentence of this Section 6.2 (i.e., an amount of shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the cash amount(s) required to be withheld by the applicable Share Price).

7. Bonus and Equity Grants.

7.1 During each year of the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in the executive incentive plan (the “Executive Incentive Plan”) adopted by the Board for such year, and shall be eligible to receive an annual cash bonus under such plan (any such cash bonus an “Annual Cash Bonus”) and/or an annual grant of restricted stock, stock options or other equity award (any such equity award an “Equity Grant”), as determined by the Board. Although the target bonus compensation for the Executive will be equal to fifty percent (50%) of Base Salary, the determination whether to award any Annual Cash Bonus or Equity Grant and the form and amount thereof (notwithstanding such target bonus compensation) shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Board, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall receive the following minimum grants (the “Minimum Grants”) of restricted stock:

(a) At the beginning of the first Employment Year, not less than One Hundred Fifty Thousand (150,000) shares of Employer common stock (such minimum amount being subject to adjustment for stock dividends, subdivisions, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting all of the shares of Employer common stock), one-third (1/3) of which shall fully vest on the last day of the first, second, and third Employment Years so long as the Executive is still then employed by the Employer or any of its subsidiaries; and

(b) At the beginning of the second Employment Year, not less than Fifty Thousand (50,000) shares of Employer common stock (such minimum amount being subject to adjustment for stock dividends, subdivisions, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting all of the shares of Employer common stock), one-third (1/3) of which shall fully vest on the last day of the second, third, and fourth Employment Years so long as the Executive is still then employed by the Employer or any of its subsidiaries.

(c) At the beginning of the third Employment Year, not less than Fifty Thousand (50,000) shares of Employer common stock (such minimum amount being subject to adjustment for stock dividends, subdivisions, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting all of the shares of Employer common stock), one-third (1/3) of which shall fully vest on the last day of the third, fourth, and fifth Employment Years so long as the Executive is still then employed by the Employer or any of its subsidiaries.

7.2 The Board’s decision to cause the Employer to make or to not make a discretionary bonus payment to the Executive in any year (including, without limitation, the consideration to be received or methodology applied by the Board to a discretionary bonus eligibility determination in any year) shall have no bearing on the Executive’s eligibility to earn a bonus in any succeeding year, nor shall the amount, form, or payment timing of any such discretionary bonus in any year nor the making of the Minimum Grants have any bearing on any aspect of a discretionary bonus determination in any subsequent year. The Executive acknowledges and agrees the Executive’s eligibility to participate in the Executive Incentive Plan, other than with respect to the Minimum Grants, may be based on the attainment of performance goals, subject to stockholder approval and that shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and that the Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion, establish from time to time one or more other annual or long-term bonus plans under which the Executive may be an eligible participant and that also are based on the attainment of performance goals, subject to stockholder approval and that shall otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.

7.3 In connection with the corporate governance of the Employer, if and to the extent that the Board has delegated to a Compensation Committee the responsibility for making determinations under the foregoing, then the determination of the Compensation Committee shall be binding.

8. Expenses.

8.1 The Employer shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable expenses actually incurred or paid by the Executive during the Term in the performance of the Executive’s services. The Employer shall make reimbursement within a reasonable time following the Executive’s presentation of expense statements, vouchers, receipts, or such other supporting information as the Employer reasonably may require from the Executive. The Executive acknowledges that the Employer’s policies regarding the documentation of expenses for which reimbursement is sought may change from time to time, and the Executive agrees that Executive will comply with the Employer’s reasonable documentation requirements; provided that each and every reimbursement due hereunder shall be requested and paid not later than six months after being incurred. It is agreed and understood that any reimbursements by the Employer to the Executive of any eligible expenses under this Agreement that are not excludable from the Executive’s income for Federal income tax purposes (the “Taxable Reimbursements”) shall be made by no later than the earlier of the date on which they would be paid under the Employer’s normal policies and the last day of the taxable year of the Executive following the year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of any Taxable Reimbursements during any taxable year of the Executive shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year of the Executive. The right to a Taxable Reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

9. Benefits.

9.1 The Executive shall be eligible to accrue the equivalent of three (3) weeks vacation during each Employment Year. The Employer will credit the Executive for Executive’s pro-rated annual accrual at the commencement of the first Employment Year and annually on January 1 of each successive Employment Year. The Executive additionally shall be entitled to remain away from work for as many or as few days as required by the Executive due to the Executive’s bona fide illness, subject to the provisions of Section 13 of this agreement. The Executive may observe any legal holidays, other holidays recognized by the Employer, and religious holidays that the Executive deems appropriate, in the sound exercise of Executive’s business judgment.

9.2 During the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in any pension, profit sharing, stock purchase, and retirement savings program or plan established by the Employer or any of its subsidiaries for which the Executive provides services hereunder (“Participating Subsidiaries”), including, without limitation, any such program or plan offered by the Employer or Participating Subsidiaries to its executive or non-executive employees. The Executive additionally shall be eligible to participate in any group life insurance, hospitalization, medical, health and accident, dental, disability, or similar plan or program made available by the Employer or Participating Subsidiaries to its executive or non-executive employees. The Executive acknowledges that Executive’s participation in any benefit plan described in this Section 9.2 may require, where required from other senior executives of the Employer or Participating Subsidiaries, the Executive’s co-payment of a periodic premium as a deduction from the Base Salary payable to Executive. The Executive additionally acknowledges that the Executive’s actual ability to participate in any program, plan, or other benefit opportunity in which the Executive otherwise is eligible to participate ultimately may be determined and governed by the terms and conditions of a third-party provider’s plan or program, and the Executive affirms that any third-party’s decision denying the Executive’s participation in a particular program or plan, the provision of coverage or a benefit in respect of a particular circumstance or expense, or a comparable decision adversely affecting the Executive shall not constitute a breach of this agreement by the Employer, so long as the Employer does not offer, designate, or select a program or plan with the actual intention of excluding the Executive’s eligibility or participation in the opportunity.

9.3 The Employer agrees that in the event of the Executive’s death during the Term, the Employer will pay to the Executive’s estate the following, which shall be distributed in accordance with the Executive’s will or testamentary plan, as directed by any court having jurisdiction over such estate, or as directed by any duly appointed administrator or executor of the Executive’s estate: (i) all earned but unpaid Base Salary through the date of the Executive’s death, plus an amount equal to twelve (12) months’ Base Salary in effect at the date of the Executive’s death; (ii) all previously awarded and unpaid Annual Cash Bonus at the date of the Executive’s death; and (iii) all unpaid reimbursable business expenses incurred by the Executive through the date of the Executive’s death.

The Executive acknowledges that the Employer may, as it deems appropriate, seek, obtain, and maintain during all or part of the Term insurance connected with the life of the Executive, and for the benefit of the Employer. In the event that the Employer elects to do so, the Executive agrees: to provide any medical information required by the insurer issuing such coverage; to submit no more frequently than semi-annually to any medical examination required by the insurer in connection with the granting or renewal of such coverage (at which examinations, the Executive’s personal physician may be present); and to otherwise cooperate reasonably with the Employer’s attempts to obtain such coverage. Any insurer’s rejection of an application submitted by the Employer connected with this Section 9.3 in no event shall constitute a breach of this agreement by the Executive, and the Employer shall not request nor in another manner seek any information from the Executive, the insurer, or any other person(s) connected with the rejection.

9.4 The Employer agrees that in the event of any of the Executive’s death during the Term or permanent Disability after completion of the second Employment Year, or the termination of the Executive’s employment under Section 12.3 hereof, the Employer shall cause any stock options, restricted stock or other equity-based instruments that previously were issued to the Executive to vest fully and shall take all action necessary to cause the assignment or transfer of such options, securities or other instruments as directed by the Executive’s will or testamentary plan, or as directed by any duly appointed administrator or executor of the Executive’s estate.

10. Indemnification. The Employer shall indemnify the Executive against all losses, claims, expenses, or other liabilities of any nature arising by reason of the fact that Executive: (a) is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; or (b) while a director, officer, employee or agent of the Employer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, is or was serving at the request of the Employer as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other entity, in each case to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive shall be entitled in connection with Executive’s employment and in connection with Executive’s services as an officer and director of the Employer to the benefit of the provisions relating to indemnification and advancement of defense costs and expenses contained in the bylaws and certificate of incorporation of the Employer, as the same in the future may be amended (not including any amendments or additions that limit or narrow, but including any that add to or broaden, the protection afforded to the Executive), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. The Employer shall advance to the Executive all costs of investigation or defense incurred by the Executive in connection with any pending or threatened claim for which the Executive may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, provided that the Executive shall agree to return to the Employer any such reimbursed amounts, without interest, if it is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a Court of competent jurisdiction that the Executive is not entitled to indemnification by the Employer for losses incurred in connection with such claim. The indemnification obligations of the Employer shall survive from the Effective Date of this agreement and continue until three (3) months after the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations with respect to any claim made against the Executive for which the Executive is or may be entitled to indemnification (the “ Survival Period ”), and shall survive after the Survival Period with respect to any indemnification claim as to which the Employer has received notice on or prior to the end of the Survival Period. During the Term of this Agreement and during the Survival Period, the Employer will maintain for the benefit of the Executive, on an “occurrence” basis, a directors and officers errors and omissions insurance policy, or a similar insurance policy(ies), providing coverage from a financially reputable carrier. Anything in this agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Section 10 shall survive the termination of this agreement for any reason and no release which may be entered into in connection with the termination of the Executive’s employment will be deemed to release the Employer from its obligations under this Section 10.

11. Confidential Information. The Executive acknowledges that Executive’s employment will fully familiarize the Executive with the trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information of the Employer (the “Confidential Information”). Examples of Confidential Information include, without limitation, information regarding the Employer’s costs, profits, markets, sales, products, key personnel, operational methods, technical processes, business strategies, and other proprietary information. The Executive further acknowledges that the unintentional or intentional disclosure of any Confidential Information would have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, prospects, financial condition and development of the Employer. The Executive therefore covenants and agrees as set forth below:

11.1 The Executive will during the Term and at all times thereafter, keep secret all Confidential Information, and will not intentionally disclose Confidential Information to anyone outside of the Employer and their respective advisors, directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, financing sources and other representatives, other than as may be strictly necessary in connection with the Executive’s performance of the duties under this agreement, or otherwise with the Employer’s prior written consent, provided that: (i) the Executive shall have no such obligation to the extent Confidential Information is or becomes publicly known, other than as a result of the Executive’s breach of the obligations hereunder; and (ii) the Executive may, after giving prior notice to the Employer to the extent practicable under the circumstances, disclose such matters to the extent required by applicable laws or governmental regulations or judicial or regulatory process; provided, however, that if the Executive is required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii), Executive agrees to use reasonable efforts to provide the Employer with prompt notice of each such request so that the Employer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance by the Executive with the provisions of this agreement or both; provided, further, however, that if, absent the entry of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver under this agreement, the Executive is, in the opinion of Executive’s counsel, legally compelled to disclose such Confidential Information under pain of liability for contempt or other censure or penalty (civil or criminal), the Executive may disclose such information to the persons and to the extent required without liability under this agreement. In such event, the Executive shall give the Employer written notice of such disclosure, in reasonable detail, as soon as possible, but in any event not later than concurrently with making such disclosure, and the Executive shall exercise reasonable commercial efforts to obtain reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded any such Confidential Information so disclosed.

11.2 The Executive will deliver promptly to the Employer at the termination of Executive’s employment by the Employer, or at any other time the Employer may so request, all memoranda, notes, records, reports, and other documents (including, without limitation, drafts, whole or partial copies, and information stored or maintained electronically, magnetically, in a computer, or through any other medium invented in the future) relating to the Employer’s business, which were obtained by Executive while employed by, or otherwise serving or acting on behalf of, the Employer and which Executive may then possess or have under Executive’s control.

11.3 The Executive’s duties may require that Executive enter into confidentiality agreements, nondisclosure agreements, or comparable agreements with third parties, and a third party may require the Executive’s entry into such an agreement(s) personally and on behalf of the Employer. In any such event, the Executive agrees to engage in reasonable efforts to perform any such agreement.

11.4 During the Term, the Employer may adopt or implement additional Confidential Information policies, procedures, or requirements in connection with the Employer’s business, and any such policies, procedures, or requirements will supplement this Section 11, without additional consideration from the Employer to the Executive, except to the extent, if any, that they conflict with this agreement, in which event this agreement shall control and govern.

12. Termination. The following definitions shall apply to the use of such terms in this agreement:

12.1 “Cause” means:

(a) the Executive engages in any intentional act of fraud against Employer;

(b) the Executive engages in willful malfeasance or gross negligence in the performance of this Agreement or capacity as an employee of the Employer;

(c) the Executive’s refusal to perform the duties required or requested consistent with Executive’s obligations under this agreement and under law, which refusal continues for more than five (5) days following the Employer’s written notice of such refusal;

(d) the Executive’s conviction of a felony or entering a plea of nolo contendre to a felony charge;

(e) the Executive’s material breach of this agreement; or

(f) any finding by the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to the Executive, which, in the opinion of independent counsel selected by the Employer, could reasonably be expected to impair or impede the Employer’s ability to register, list, or otherwise offer its stock to the public, or to maintain itself as a publicly-traded company in good standing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For purposes of this Section 12.1, no act, or failure to act, by the Executive shall be “willful” unless committed without a reasonable belief that the act or omission was in the best interest of the Employer.

12.2 Termination without Cause. In the event the Employer terminates Executive’s employment without Cause, other than due to Disability or death, the Executive shall be entitled to:

(a) be paid by the Employer (i) the Base Salary in effect on the date of termination through the date of termination, (ii) any previously awarded and unpaid Annual Cash Bonus; (iii) all unpaid reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive through the date of termination, with payment made as soon as practicable but no later than two and one-half months following such termination date; and (iv) the Employer shall cause any stock options, restricted stock or other equity-based instruments that previously were issued to the Executive to vest fully.

(b) a lump sum, to be paid by the Employer as soon as practicable but not later than two and one-half months following such termination date, equal to the Base Salary in effect on the date of termination for a three (3) month period following such termination (the “Post Termination Salary Payment”), provided that the Post Termination Salary Payment will be increased by one (1) month’s Base Salary for each Employment Year worked after the first Employment Year (for example, if Executive is Terminated without Cause in the fourth Employment Year, the Post Termination Salary Payment would be equal to four (4) months’ Base Salary and if he is Terminated without Cause in the fifth (5th) Employment Year, the Post Termination Salary Payment would be equal to five (5) months’ Base Salary). Under no circumstances shall the Post Termination Salary Payment be greater than six (6) months’ Base Salary.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service (as defined in Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h)) the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), any amount or benefits that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A that becomes payable to Executive on account of the Executive’s Separation from Service will not be paid until after the earlier of (i) first business day of the seventh month following Executive’s Separation from Service, or (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “ 409A Suspension Period”). Within fourteen (14) calendar days after the end of the 409A Suspension Period, the Executive shall be paid a cash lump sum payment equal to any payments (including interest on any such payments), and benefits that the Employer would otherwise have been required to provide under this Section 12.2 but for the imposition of the 409A Suspension Period delayed because of the preceding sentence. Thereafter, the Executive shall receive any remaining payments and benefits due under this agreement in accordance with the terms of this Section (as if there had not been any Suspension Period beforehand).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, no benefits or amounts shall be payable under this Section 12.2 unless the Executive executes and delivers a general release of claims in a form and manner reasonably satisfactory to the Employer including, but not limited to, a release of any and all claims arising out this agreement and the Executive's employment relationship with the Employer, and such release has become irrevocable pursuant to its terms (it being understood, however, that in no event will such release expand any of the post-termination restrictions referred to in paragraph (c) above). The Executive shall forfeit all rights to such payments and benefits unless such release is signed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation, if applicable) within thirty (30) days or such longer period which is provided by law for review and revocation) following the delivery of such release, signed by the Employer, to the Executive. If such release is executed and delivered and no longer subject to revocation as provided in the preceding sentence, then the following shall apply:

(i) To the extent any such cash payment or continuing benefit to be provided is not “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, then such payment or benefit shall commence upon the first scheduled payment date immediately after the date the release is executed and no longer subject to revocation (the “Release Effective Date”). The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would have been due prior to the Release Effective Date under the terms of this agreement had such payments commenced immediately upon the Executive’s termination of employment, and any payments made thereafter shall continue as provided herein. The delayed benefits shall in any event expire at the time such benefits would have expired had such benefits commenced immediately following the termination of the Executive’s employment.

(ii) To the extent any such cash payment or continuing benefit to be provided is “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, then such payments or benefits shall be made or commence upon the sixtieth (60) day following the termination of the Executive’s employment. The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would have been due prior thereto under the terms of this agreement had such payments commenced immediately upon the termination of the Executive’s employment, and any payments made thereafter shall continue as provided herein. The delayed benefits shall in any event expire at the time such benefits would have expired had such benefits commenced immediately following the termination of the Executive’s employment.

The Employer may provide, in its sole discretion, that the Executive may continue to participate in any benefits delayed, provided that the Executive shall bear the full cost of such benefits during such delay period. Upon the date such benefits would otherwise commence pursuant to this Section 12.2 hereof, the Employer shall reimburse the Executive the Employer’s share of the cost of such benefits, to the extent that such costs otherwise would have been paid by the Employer or to the extent that such benefits otherwise would have been provided by the Employer at no cost to the Executive, in each case had such benefits commenced immediately upon the termination of the Executive’s employment. Any remaining benefits shall be reimbursed or provided by the Employer in accordance with the schedule and procedures specified herein.

12.3 Termination by the Employer for Cause. If the Employer terminates this agreement for Cause, the Executive shall be paid, as soon as practicable but no later than two and one-half months following such termination, (i) all earned but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination; (ii) any previously awarded and unpaid Annual Cash Bonus; and (iii) all unpaid reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive through the date of termination. In the event the Employer terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause, the Executive shall have no further obligation or liability to the Employer in connection with the performance of this agreement (except the continuing obligations specified in Section 11 and Section 14).

12.4 Voluntary Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement by the Executive on Executive’s own initiative other than a termination due to death or Disability, the Executive shall have the same entitlements as provided in Section 12.3 hereof for a Termination for Cause. A voluntary termination of employment by the Executive shall be effective upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Employer. Written notice need not be provided in the event of a termination due to death or disability.

12.3 No Mitigation or Offset. At any termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall have no obligation to seek other employment. There shall be no offset against amounts due the Executive under this agreement on account of any remuneration attributable to any later employment, consultancy, partnership, or other remunerative activity connected with the Executive. However, the Employer may offset (at any time before the date that is two and one-half months after the end of the calendar year in which the Executive’s employment terminates) any amounts owed by the Executive to the Employer or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates against amounts due to the Executive under this agreement. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this agreement or any other agreement to which the Employer and the Executive are parties to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

13. Disability.

13.1 If during the Term, the Executive becomes Disabled (as defined below), the Employer shall have the option to terminate Executive’s employment upon written notice to Executive.

16. Disputes.

16.1 Arbitration of Monetary Disputes. Any action or claim seeking monetary damages arising between the parties to this agreement (including, without limitation, the Executive’s representative following Executive’s death and any successor to the Employer), whether based on contract, negligence, intentional tort, fraud or misrepresentation, statutorily prohibited discrimination, including employment discrimination, or breach of other legal duty arising from or connected in any manner with this agreement or its performance shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, as follows:

(a) The arbitration shall proceed in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in effect when the claim or dispute arose between the parties, or in the event that the AAA no longer follows the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes, then the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (if applicable, the “Rules”) in effect on the date of this agreement. Either party may, but neither party must, file or docket the dispute for administration by the AAA, so long as the dispute proceeds in accordance with this Section 16.1 and the applicable Rules.

(b) The arbitrator(s) shall be selected as follows: Each party shall by written notice to the other have the right to appoint one arbitrator. If, within thirty (30) days following the giving of such notice by one party, the other shall not, by written notice, appoint another arbitrator, the first arbitrator shall be the sole arbitrator. If two arbitrators are so appointed, they shall appoint a third arbitrator. If thirty (30) days elapse after the appointment of the second arbitrator and the two arbitrators are unable to agree upon the third arbitrator, then either party may, in writing, request that the AAA appoint the third arbitrator.

(c) Each party exclusively shall bear all costs, fees, and other expenses charged by or associated with the arbitrator appointed by such party, and the parties equally shall pay the costs and expenses of any third appointed arbitrator. All proceedings connected with the arbitration, including hearings, shall be held in New York, New York, and where a party appoints an arbitrator who principally conducts his or her business outside of New York, New York, the appointing party exclusively shall bear that arbitrator’s travel, temporary lodging, and related costs and expenses. The general counsel of the AAA or his or her designee, after the filing of the dispute with the AAA, exclusively shall have the jurisdiction and the authority, after written application filed by a party with the AAA and the opportunity for the other party to respond in writing, to inequitably allocate between the parties the AAA’s pre-hearing filing and administrative fees and the fees and expenses of any appointed arbitrator(s), subject to reallocation among the parties by the arbitrator(s) in any final award (or decision).

(d) All proceedings, hearings, testimony, documents, or writings related to the arbitration shall be confidential, i.e., not disclosed by a party, a party’s representative(s), or any testifying witnesses to a person or entity not a party to, or interested in, the arbitration. The parties further agree, without regard to any AAA rule to the contrary, that where a written reasoned award(s) is made by the arbitrator(s), the arbitrator(s) also shall issue a one-page award (or decision) in a form which permits a future need by any party to judicially enforce the award, but that the written reasoned award shall not be disclosed by the parties to any person or body not connected directly with the arbitration.

(e) The arbitrator(s) appointed exclusively shall have jurisdiction to determine any claim, including the arbitrability of any claim, submitted to him, her, or them. Each party shall bear its own arbitration costs and expenses, including, without limitation, the costs and expenses associated with any attorney or other expert or representative retained by the party in connection with a claim, without regard to any pre-award application by the AAA of the last sentence of Section 16.1(c). The interpretation and enforceability of the arbitration agreement memorialized in this section shall be determined in accordance with the United States Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §1, et seq.) (the “FAA”), unless the New York State Arbitration Act (the “New York Act”) (CPLR §7501, et seq.) would make enforceable this agreement after an appointed arbitrator(s) finds it unenforceable under the FAA, in which case the New York Act shall be applied. Any process required or desirable in connection with any arbitration under this Section 16.1 shall be issued and served as authorized by the FAA, the New York Act, or any treaty to which the United States is a signatory, and upon a party by personal or permitted substitute service anywhere in the world. The substantive law applied by the arbitrator(s) to the determination of any claim or defense not connected with the enforceability of this arbitration agreement shall be the internal laws of the State of New York, without reference to conflicts of law principles.

(f) The parties agree that the appointed arbitrator(s) shall have no power or authority to make awards or issue orders of any kind, except as authorized by the FAA and the internal laws of the State of New York. Any monetary award made shall be payable promptly in United States dollars, free of any tax, offset, or deduction (unless required by law), and any costs, fees, or taxes incident to enforcing the award shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be charged against the party resisting enforcement.

16.2 Claims for Equitable Relief. Any action or proceeding initiated by any party to this agreement seeking any form of temporary or preliminary injunctive relief, including, without limitation, specific performance, connected with this agreement or its performance may be brought against any other party in the courts of the State of New York or, if the party has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of such courts in any such action or proceeding, and each party waives any objection to venue laid therein. Process in any action or proceeding referred to in the preceding sentence may be served on any party anywhere in the world. The parties agree that the pursuit of any relief described in this Section 16.2 in no way may or shall diminish, defeat, or otherwise impair the agreement expressed in Section 16.1.
