5 | P a g e accelerate on the Termination Date, so that the options or other equity incentives awarded will vest on a pro-rata basis, such that the number of options or other equity awards that would have vested on the Next Vesting Date will be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months he was employed hereunder from the Prior Vesting Date through the date of his termination and the denominator of which is the number of full months from the Prior Vesting Date through the Next Vesting Date. Section 8.4. Termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company for Cause (as hereinafter defined) or by Executive without Good Reason (as hereinafter defined).

In addition to the foregoing, all options or other equity incentive awards granted to Executive under the Plan (or any successor plan), to the extent unvested, shall terminate forthwith. Section 8.5. Without Cause or for Good Reason or upon Non-Renewal. Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company without Cause, by Executive for Good Reason or upon non-renewal of the Term as provided in Section 8.1.

This Employment Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements between the Parties concerning such subject matter, including the Prior Agreement. Section 13.3. Section 409A of the Code. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement is intended to be interpreted and applied so that the payment of the benefits set forth herein either shall either be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) or shall comply with the requirements of such provision. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, any payments or arrangements due upon a termination of Executive’s employment under any arrangement that constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and which do not otherwise qualify under the exemptions under Treas. Regs. Section 1.409A-1 (including without limitation, the short-term deferral exemption or the permitted payments under Treas. Regs. Section 1.409A- 1(b)(9)(iii)(A)), shall be delayed and paid or provided on the earlier of (i) the date which is six months after Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is

13 | P a g e defined in Section 409A and the regulations and other published guidance thereunder) for any reason other than death, and (ii) the date of Executive’s death. (b) After any Termination Date, Executive shall have no duties or responsibilities that are inconsistent with having a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A as of the Termination Date and, notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, distributions upon termination of employment may only be made upon a “separation from service” as determined under Section 409A and such date shall be the Termination Date for purposes of this Agreement. Each payment under this Agreement or otherwise shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this Agreement which constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A. (c) Any amounts otherwise payable to Executive following a termination of employment that are not so paid by reason of this Section 13.2 shall be paid as soon as practicable following, and in any event within thirty (30) days following, the date that is six months after Executive’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of Executive’s death) together with interest on the delayed payment at the Company’s cost of borrowing. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A. Section 13.4. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. In the event of Executive’s death after his termination of employment but prior to the completion by the Company of all payments due him under this Agreement, the Company shall continue such payments to Executive’s beneficiary designated in writing to the Company prior to his death (or to his estate, if Executive fails to make such designation). The Company shall require any successor to the Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Section 13.5. Enforceability. If any portion or provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any portion or provision of any section of this Agreement) shall to any extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Section 13.6. Waiver. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving Party. The failure of any Party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by any Party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach. Section 13.7. Notices. Notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered in person or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service to Executive at the last address Executive has filed in writing with the Company or, in the case of the Company, at its main offices, attention of the Chief Financial Officer. Notices shall be effective on receipt. 14 | P a g e Section 13.8. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument signed by Executive and by a duly authorized representative of the Company. Section 13.9. Governing Law.

Section 13.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including by facsimile, .PDF or other electronic transmission (which shall be deemed to be an original), each of which when so executed and delivered shall be taken to be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document. 15 | P a g e IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement effective as of the Effective Date.
