Re: Transition Agreement
Dear Xxxxx,
As we have discussed, your employment with xxxxxxxxxx.xxx, inc. (the “Company”) will terminate effective as of February 25, 2021 (the “Separation Date”) and the Company wishes to retain your service through the Separation Date (or such earlier date as provided in Section III below) (the “Transition Period”).
I.Services
You and the Company agree that you shall no longer serve in the role of Co-Chief Executive Officer after the date of this letter agreement (the “Agreement”).
During the Transition Period and subject to details and limitations contained in Attachment A, you will continue to be employed by the Company and will perform such duties as reasonably directed by the Chief Executive Officer and described in Attachment A (the “Services”), which may include (without limitation) advice on customer relations and assisting with the transition of your duties. You agree that you will not be employed by or provide services to any other person or entity during the Transition Period, except as specifically permitted by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, your resignation from the Company’s board of directors is effective as of the date hereof.
You agree that you will be reasonably available to the Company during the Transition Period. You may (i) serve on the board of directors or similar governing body of other business entities and (ii) engage in other outside activities; provided, however, that any activities that create a possible conflict with the Company or are related in any way to the Company’s business must be approved in writing by the Company’s Chief Legal Officer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Provided, further, that employment or full-time services for compensation with any other person or entity during the Transition Period shall be prohibited and the Transition Period shall automatically terminate upon your commencement of such employment or other full-time service.
During the Transition Period, you shall have the title of “Advisor to the Chief Executive
II.Compensation during the Transition Period
February 24, 2020
Page 2 of 13
During the Transition Period, you shall continue to receive a base salary, in accordance with the Company’s payroll procedures (the “Base Salary”). Your Base Salary shall be calculated as follows: (i) from the date hereof through May 31, 2020 (the “Initial Advisory Period”), your Base Salary will be equal to your salary as in effect immediately prior to the date hereof and (ii) during the remaining Transition Period, your Base Salary shall be paid at the rate of $54,080 per annum. You also will continue to vest in your currently-outstanding equity awards of the Company during the Transition Period, subject to the terms of the applicable Company equity plan and equity award agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, your provision of Services and agreed-upon continued employment with the Company under this Agreement is sufficient to meet any and all employment, service provider or similar criteria in such equity plan and award agreements. Any equity awards that have not vested as of the end of the Transition Period shall be permanently forfeited. In all other respects, the exercise of your vested options and the other terms of your outstanding equity awards shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable Company equity plan and equity award agreements. During the Transition Period, you shall remain subject to the Company’s Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Policy, including provisions that require certain persons to preclear transactions in Company securities and limit trading to open window periods, subject to certain exceptions. As of February 25, 2020, you will no longer be considered a Section 16 officer, and your obligations regarding your equity shall change accordingly (and the Company will provide you information regarding the implications of that status change). Notwithstanding the foregoing, you confirm that you are not aware of any reason why you would not be able to sign/make the FY20 10-K certifications as if you were Co-Chief Executive Officer.
During the Initial Advisory Period, you also will continue to be eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans to the extent permitted by applicable plan terms and Company policy. Following the Initial Advisory Period, through the end of the Transition Period you shall continue to be eligible to participate only in the Company’s health and welfare plans to the extent permitted by applicable plan terms and Company policy. Following the end of the Transition Period, you will be eligible to elect “COBRA” health continuation coverage. If you timely elect COBRA coverage and subject to your execution and non-revocation of the Supplemental Release attached as Attachment B, the Company will pay 18 months of all applicable COBRA-related expenses, including both the employer and employee portions of the premiums. Thereafter, you will be solely responsible for timely payment of all remaining COBRA premiums for the duration of COBRA coverage (if any).
In addition, subject to your compliance with the terms hereof, you shall receive payment of (i) 100% of your fiscal year 2020 Gratitude Bonus in April 2020, calculated and payable in the normal course (the “FY 2020 Bonus”) and (ii) during each full month of the Initial Advisory Period you shall receive a payment equal to 1/12th of your FY 2020 Bonus, payable in monthly installments (the “Transition Bonus”).
The Company will also reimburse you for the reasonable cost of a laptop and cellular telephone.

Page 3 of 13
A.Termination by the Company
The Company may terminate the Transition Period prior to February 25, 2021 only for Cause (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, for any other reason), as defined below. In the event the Company terminates the Transition Period for Cause, your equity awards shall stop vesting upon such termination and shall be forfeited to the extent unvested, and you shall only receive the accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination. You will not receive a FY 2020 Bonus if not previously paid.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” mean any one of the foregoing: (i) an act of dishonesty made by you in connection with your responsibilities to the Company, (ii) your conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony or any crime involving fraud, embezzlement or any other act of moral turpitude, (iii) your gross misconduct, (iv) your unauthorized use or disclosure of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company or any other party to whom you owe an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of your relationship with the Company; (v) your willful breach of any obligations under any written agreement or covenant with the Company; or (vi) your continued willful failure to perform your employment duties hereunder, provided, however, that in the case of (iii), (v) and (vi) Cause will only be deemed to exist in the event that you have failed to cure (if curable) such misconduct, breach or failure within fifteen (15) days following written notice by the Company.
B.Termination by You
You may terminate the Transition Period for any reason prior to February 25, 2021 upon ten (10) days’ written notice. In addition, the Transition Period shall automatically terminate upon your commencement of employment or other full-time service for compensation with any other person or entity (and you shall notify the Company in writing promptly following accepting any such employment or full-time service) unless you are otherwise authorized by the Company as provided in Section I to provide services to any other person or entity during the Transition Period. Upon any such termination, your equity awards shall stop vesting, and you shall only receive the accrued but unpaid Base Salary and Transition Bonus through the date of termination and the FY 2020 Bonus (subject to the provisions of Section II). In the event of your death or disability, you or your heirs, as applicable, shall receive the remaining Base Salary and Transition Bonus payable to you through the Separation Date and the FY 2020 Bonus (if unpaid) in April 2020.
