(iii) In addition, upon Executive’s death, any Equity Awards granted to the Executive that would not vest on or prior to the Termination Date shall vest and, if applicable, be exercisable immediately and, notwithstanding any termination of employment provisions set forth in the applicable agreement or related plan, such Equity Awards shall continue to be exercisable until their original stated expiration date.

(c) Incapacity. If, in the reasonable judgment of the Compensation Committee, as a result of the Executive’s incapacity due to a medically determinable physical or mental illness, the Executive shall have been absent from his full-time duties as described hereunder for the entire period of twelve (12) consecutive months (“Incapacity”), the Executive’s employment shall terminate at the end of the twelve (12)-month period as provided in this Section 4(c).

The lump sum payment described in Section 4(c)(ii) shall be made within sixty (60) days following the Termination Date, provided that prior to the payment date the Executive or his designated appointee signs a waiver and release of claims agreement in the form provided by the Company in its discretion and such waiver and release becomes effective and irrevocable in its entirety prior to such date. If the waiver and release does not become effective and irrevocable on or prior to the payment date set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company shall have no further obligations pursuant to Section 4(c)(ii). The Company’s obligation to pay the Executive his Salary and benefits (to the extent not previously paid) shall terminate if the Executive subsequently takes other employment to the extent of the Executive’s salary and benefits from such subsequent employment. Any dispute between the Compensation Committee and the Executive with respect to the Executive’s Incapacity shall be settled by reference to a competent medical authority mutually agreed to by the Compensation Committee and the Executive or his personal representative, whose decision shall be binding on all parties.

(d) Termination by the Company for Cause; Resignation by the Executive.

(i) If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause or the Executive resigns or terminates his employment for any reason, the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive hereunder after the Termination Date, except for unpaid Salary and benefits accrued through the Termination Date.

(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (A) the willful and continued (after a reasonable period following such demand) failure by Executive to substantially perform his duties hereunder (other than any such willful or continued failure resulting from his Incapacity due to physical or mental illness or physical injury), after written demand for substantial performance is delivered by the Company to Executive that specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes Executive has not substantially performed his duties; (B) the willful engaging by Executive in misconduct which is materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise; or (C) the conviction of Executive of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction in a judgment which has become final and nonappealable if such conviction would render it impossible for Executive to perform his obligations hereunder or if the reputation of the Company would be materially damaged by the continuance of Executive’s employment hereunder.

For purposes of this Section 4(d)(ii) no act, or failure to act, on the part of Executive shall be considered “willful” unless done or omitted to be done by him in bad faith and without reasonable belief that his action or omission was in the best interest of the Company.

If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by the Executive for any reason, pursuant to Section 4(d)(i), the Company shall have no further obligations to Executive hereunder after the Termination Date, except as provided for in Section 4(d)(i), Section 19 (Indemnification) hereof, or other indemnification available to Executive by agreement, insurance, law, equity or the Company’s organizational documents.

(e) Termination without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder at any time without Cause. In such event:

The payments described in Sections 4(e)(ii) and 4(e)(iii) shall be made within thirty (30) days following the Termination Date. The lump sum payment described in Section 4(e)(i) shall be made on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments shall be made pursuant to Section 4(e)(i) unless the Executive signs a waiver and release agreement in the form provided by the Company in its sole discretion and such waiver and release becomes effective and irrevocable in its entirety within 60 days following the Termination Date. If the waiver and release does not become effective and irrevocable on or prior to the payment date set forth with respect to Section 4(e)(i), the Company shall have no further obligations pursuant to Section 4(e)(i).

(f) Benefit Continuation. If the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Sections 4(b), 4(c), 4(e) or 5(c) then the Company shall provide the Executive and, as applicable, his eligible spouse and eligible dependents with continued participation in the medical, dental and health benefit plans (except for the executive medical reimbursement plan) then generally available to the Company’s executive officers on similar terms and conditions as active executives, from the Termination Date until the earlier of (i) the first (1st) anniversary of the Termination Date and (ii) the date the Executive becomes eligible for comparable benefits provided by a third party; provided, however, that the continuation of such benefits shall be

The Executive shall be solely responsible for all taxes related to the receipt of post employment medical, dental and health benefits.

5. Change of Control.

(a) Change of Control Payments. In the event of a Change of Control of the Company (as defined below) during the Employment Term, the Executive shall be eligible to receive, subject to his continued employment with the Company (or with any successor to the Company or any entity assigned this Agreement pursuant to Section 17 of this Agreement) through each applicable payment date (as set forth in Section 5(b)), payments equal to the sum of (A) a prorated portion of 75% of the Executive’s then current Salary, with the prorated amount to be determined based on the number of days that the Executive was employed by the Company prior to the Change of Control Date during the year that the Change of Control occurs, (B) the Executive’s Salary for the remainder of the Employment Term, (C) the maximum annual contribution under the Company’s deferred compensation plan of seven and a half percent (7.5%) of the Executive’s total base salary and annual cash bonus (with such maximum amount to be determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable deferred compensation plan) that would have been made during the remainder of the Employment Term and (D) two (2) times the Executive’s Target Bonus, in the case of each of clauses (B), (C) and (D) at the rates in effect as of the Change of Control Date (the aggregate amount determined in accordance with this Section 5(a), the “Change of Control Amount”). For purposes of determining the Company’s obligations under Section 5, the date on which a Change of Control is effective shall be referred to as the “Change of Control Date.”

(b) Change of Control Payment Dates. The Change of Control Amount shall be paid to the Executive, subject to the Executive’s employment through each applicable payment date, in equal biweekly installments beginning on the first regular payroll date following the Change of Control Date and ending at the end of the Employment Term (as in effect as of the Change of Control Date).

(i) In the event that the Executive has a Separation from Service due to the Executive’s employment being terminated by the Company without Cause or due to the Executive’s death or Incapacity on or after the Change of Control Date (a “Change of Control Termination”) but prior to the payment of the full Change of Control Amount, the Executive shall be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to the unpaid portion of the Change of Control Amount on the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Change of Control Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments shall be made pursuant to this Section 5(c)(i) in connection with a termination of employment without Cause or due to the Executive’s Incapacity unless the Executive signs a waiver and release agreement in the form provided by the Company in its sole discretion and such waiver and release becomes effective and irrevocable in its entirety within 60 days following the date that the Executive’s employment terminates. If the waiver and release does not become effective and irrevocable on or prior to the payment date set forth in this Section 5(c)(i), the Company shall have no further obligations pursuant to Section 5(a) or this Section 5(c)(i). If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or due to the

Executive’s resignation for any reason, the Executive shall forfeit the remaining portion of the Change of Control Amount and the Company shall have no further obligations pursuant to Section 5(a) or this Section 5(c)(i).

(ii) In the event of a Change of Control Termination, any Equity Awards granted to the Executive that would not vest on or prior to the date of the Change of Control Termination shall vest and, if applicable, be exercisable immediately and, notwithstanding any provisions set forth in the applicable agreement or related plan, such Equity Awards shall continue to be exercisable until their original stated expiration date.

(iii) In the event the Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason on or after the Change of Control Date, the Company or its successor in interest shall pay to the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to (A) any accrued and unpaid Salary, Automobile Allowance, vacation time and benefits through the Termination Date, and (B) any earned but unpaid bonuses payable to the Executive as determined by the Compensation Committee for any fiscal periods of the Company ending prior to the Termination Date.

(d) Definition of Change of Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall mean a “change in control event” within the meaning of the default rules under Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (together with Section 409A of the Code, “Section 409A”). The obligations of the Company pursuant to this Section 5 shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the Executive’s employment. A Change of Control shall occur on the effective date of any event specified in this Section 5(d). In connection with any determination of ownership for purposes of this Section 5(d), the attribution rules of Section 318(a) of the Code shall apply.

(e) No Termination Payments. In the event of a Change of Control, whether or not any payments are made pursuant to this Section 5, the Executive shall not be entitled to any compensation or benefits pursuant to Section 4 (except for any benefits continuation provided pursuant to Section 4(f) following a Change of Control Termination), including, without limitation, any payments relating to a Termination Amount.

6. 280G Matters.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment, distribution, benefit, equity-based or other compensation or other transfer or action by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) (a “Payment”) would be subject to an excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or any interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to any such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), the Accounting Firm (as defined below) shall, in consultation with Executive’s legal counsel or other advisor designated by Executive (“Executive’s Advisor”), determine whether to reduce any of the Payments to Executive so that the Parachute Value (as defined below) of all Payments to Executive, in the aggregate, equals the applicable Safe Harbor Amount (as defined below). Payments shall be so reduced only if the Accounting Firm determines, subject to the approval of

Executive’s Advisor, with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, that Executive would have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined below) of aggregate Payments if the Payments were so reduced.

(b) If the Accounting Firm determines that the aggregate Payments to Executive should be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments to Executive, in the aggregate, equals the applicable Safe Harbor Amount, and Executive’s Advisor approves such determination, the Company shall promptly give Executive notice to that effect and a copy of the detailed calculation thereof. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm and approved by Executive’s Advisor under this Section 6 shall be binding upon the Company and Executive and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than 15 days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment.

(c) The reduction contemplated by this Section 6, if applicable, shall be made by reducing payments and benefits (to the extent such amounts are considered Payments) under the following sections in the following order: (A) any Payments as a result of the acceleration of the vesting of performance-based Equity Awards pursuant to Section 5(c)(ii), (B) any Payment under Section 5(a) or Section 5(c)(i) that is a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, (C) any other cash Payments that are “parachute payments” and would be made upon a Change of Control, beginning with payments that would be made last in time, and (D) any Payments as a result of accelerated vesting of Equity Awards for which the amount considered contingent on the change in ownership or control is determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(c).

(d) As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that amounts will have been paid or distributed by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive pursuant to this Agreement that should not have been so paid or distributed (each, an “Overpayment”) or that additional amounts that will have not been paid or distributed by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive pursuant to this Agreement could have been so paid or distributed (each, an “Underpayment”), in each case consistent with the calculation of the applicable Safe Harbor Amount hereunder. In the event that the Accounting Firm, based on the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against the Company or Executive which the Accounting Firm believes, and Executive’s Advisor agrees, has a high probability of success, determines that an Overpayment has been made, any such Overpayment paid or distributed by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive shall be repaid by Executive to the Company; provided, however, that (i) no such repayment shall be required if and to the extent such deemed repayment would not either reduce the amount on which Executive is subject to tax under Sections 1 or 4999 of the Code or generate a refund of such taxes; and (ii) to the extent such repayment would generate a refund of such taxes, Executive shall only be required to pay to the Company the Overpayment less the amount of tax to be refunded and to transfer the refund of such taxes to the Company when received. In the event that the Accounting Firm, based on controlling precedent or substantial authority, determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive, together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.

(e) All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in implementing the provisions of this Section 6 shall be borne by the Company, and the Company shall reimburse Executive for all

reasonable advisory fees incurred with respect to this Section 6 (including for services provided by Executive’s Advisor) and any legal and accounting fees incurred with respect to disputes related thereto (including for services provided by Executive’s Advisor).

(f) The following terms shall have the following meanings for purposes of this Section 6:

(i) “Accounting Firm” shall mean a mutually agreed upon nationally recognized accounting firm (a “Big Four” accounting firm) that is not serving as accountant or auditor for the Company or the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control.

(ii) “Net After-Tax Receipt” shall mean the Present Value of a Payment net of all taxes imposed on Executive with respect thereto under Sections 1 and 4999 of the Code and under applicable state, local, and foreign laws, determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under state, local, and foreign laws that applied to Executive’s taxable income for the immediately preceding taxable year, or such other rate as such Executive shall certify, in Executive’s sole discretion, as likely to apply to Executive in the relevant tax year.

(iii) “Parachute Value” of a Payment shall mean the present value as of the date of the change in control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code of the portion of such Payment that constitutes a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, as determined by the Accounting Firm for purposes of determining whether and to what extent the Excise Tax will apply to such Payment.

(iv) “Present Value” of a Payment shall mean the economic present value of a Payment as of the date of the change in control for purposes of Section 280G of the Code, as determined by the Accounting Firm using the discount rate required by Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code.

(v) “Safe Harbor Amount” means (x) 3.0 times Executive’s “base amount,” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code, minus (y) $1.00.

7. Covenants of the Executive. In consideration of the receipt and execution of this Agreement, including all of the benefits set forth herein that are beyond or in addition to the benefits the Executive was previously entitled or eligible to receive (each benefit separately and cumulatively being sufficient consideration for the Executive’s covenants contained in this Section 7), and the Executive’s continued employment as the Vice President and General Manager, Aerospace Solutions Group (also separately being sufficient consideration for the Executive’s covenants contained in this Section 7), the Executive agrees as follows:

(a) Non-Competition.

(i) The Executive shall not during the Executive’s employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the Termination Date (the “Non-Compete Restrictive Period”), directly or indirectly:

(A) compete in the United States or on the internet with respect to any “Competing Product or Service”, which is defined to mean those products or services offered and/or under development by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates during the Executive’s employment (both during the term of this Agreement and any periods prior to this Agreement whereby Executive was employed by the Company or its predecessors) with the Company of which the Executive has knowledge, or any product or service competitive with or intended to compete with such products or services, or any product or service of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates which the Executive acquired knowledge of as a result of, arising out of, or from his employment with the Company (including its predecessors); and

(B) own, invest in, make loans to, operate, manage, control, participate in, consult with, or advise, any entity or person that provides a Competing Product or Service with the Company in the United States or on the internet. This covenant shall not prevent the Executive from having passive investments of less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding equity securities of any entity listed for trading on a national stock exchange (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or any recognized automatic quotation system.

(ii) If the Executive breaches any covenant contained in this Section 7(a), the Executive agrees and acknowledges that the Non-Compete Restrictive Period shall be extended during the time of such breach. The Executive further agrees and acknowledges that, in the event of the Executive’s breach of any covenants contained in this Section 7(a), the Non-Compete Restrictive Period may, to extent permitted by law, be extended for up to two (2) years, which shall commence upon either (x) a determination by the Company that the Executive has stopped breaching such covenants, or (y) the date of a court’s or arbitrator’s final determination that the Executive breached a covenant contained in Section 7(a).

(b) Non-Solicitation.

(i) As a separate and independent covenant, the Executive agrees that he shall not during his employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the Termination Date (the “Non-Solicitation Restrictive Period”), directly or indirectly:

(A) contact, solicit, perform services for, or accept work or business (in any capacity other than as a Company employee) from any clients or customers of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, with whom the Executive has worked or had contact during the Executive’s employment with the Company, or of whom the Executive had knowledge of due to his employment or access to the Company’s confidential information and/or trade secrets;

(B) contact, solicit or accept contact from any clients, subcontractors, consultants, vendors, suppliers or independent contractors of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, for the purpose of interfering with, causing, inviting, or encouraging any such persons or entities from altering or terminating their business

relationship or association with the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates. This applies to any clients, subcontractors, consultants, vendors, suppliers or independent contractors with whom the Executive has worked or had contact during his employment with the Company, or of whom the Executive had knowledge due to his employment or access to the Company’s confidential information and/or trade secrets; or

(C) contact, solicit or accept contact from any employee of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates for the purpose of interfering with their employment with the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, or inviting or encouraging them to terminate their employment with the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates or which has the effect of altering or terminating their employment with the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates.

(ii) If the Executive breaches any covenant contained in this Section 7(b), the Executive agrees and acknowledges that the Non-Solicitation Restrictive Period shall be extended during the time of such breach. The Executive further agrees and acknowledges that, in the event of the Executive’s breach of any covenants contained in this Section 7(b), the Non-Solicitation Restrictive Period may, to the extent permitted by law, be extended for up to two (2) years, which shall commence upon either (x) a determination by the Company that the Executive has stopped breaching such covenants, or (y) the date of a court’s or arbitrator’s final determination that the Executive breached a covenant contained in Section 7(b).

If any provision of this Agreement contravenes any regulations or United States Treasury guidance promulgated under Section 409A, or could cause any amounts or benefits hereunder to be subject to taxes, interest and penalties under Section 409A, the Company may, in its sole discretion and without the Executive’s consent, modify the Agreement to: (i) comply with, or avoid being subject to, Section 409A, (ii) avoid the imposition of taxes, interest and penalties under Section 409A, and/or (iii) maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without contravening the provisions of Section 409A. This Section

15(d) does not create an obligation on the part of the Company to modify this Agreement and does not guarantee that the amounts or benefits owed under this Agreement will not be subject to interest and penalties under Section 409A.

(e) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no reimbursement payable to the Executive pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or pursuant to any plan or arrangement of the Company group covered by this Agreement shall be paid later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related expense was incurred, except to the extent that the right to reimbursement does not provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A. No amount reimbursed during any calendar year shall affect the amounts eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year.

16. Enforceability; Waiver. If any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall have no effect on the other provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain valid, binding and enforceable and in full force and effect, and such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be construed, blue-penciled or reformed by the court or arbitrator in a manner so as to give the maximum valid and enforceable effect to the intent of the parties expressed in such provision. The Executive’s or the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any provision hereof or any other provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right that the Executive or the Company may have hereunder, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement. Similarly, the waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach by such other party.

17. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company. The Executive may not assign or delegate his duties under this Agreement without the Company’s prior written approval.

18. Survival. The obligations of the Executive pursuant to the 2015 Proprietary Rights Agreement, the respective obligations of the parties pursuant to Sections 3(f) and 7 of this Agreement, and the entitlements of the Executive and obligations of the Company pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement, shall each survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement, or any termination or resignation of the Executive’s employment, as the case may be.

19. Indemnification. To the maximum extent permitted under the law of the State of Delaware as from time to time in effect, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify and defend Executive and hold him harmless from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in settlement or as fines or penalties, and counsel fees and disbursements, incurred by Executive in connection with the defense or disposition of, or otherwise in connection with or resulting from, any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, before any court or administrative or legislative or investigative body, in which Executive may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise or with which Executive may be or may have been threatened, while in office or thereafter, by reason of Executive’s being an officer or director of the Company or by reason of any action taken or not taken in such capacity. Executive's contractual indemnification rights under this Section 19

shall (i) be in addition to any right of indemnification available to Executive by agreement, insurance, law, equity or the Company’s organizational documents, and (ii) notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, survive Executive's termination of employment with the Company hereunder for any reason.

20. Legal Fees. In the event of any litigation, dispute or contest arising from a breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party all reasonable costs incurred in connection with such litigation, dispute or contest, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, disbursement and costs, and experts’ fees and costs.

21. Unfunded Status. This Agreement is intended to constitute an unfunded plan for incentive compensation. Nothing contained herein shall give Executive any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. In its sole discretion, the Compensation Committee may authorize the creation of trusts, acquisitions of life insurance policies or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under this Agreement.

(ii) I agree that, upon termination of my employment (if applicable) and/or tenure as an independent contractor with the Company for any reason (regardless of whether or not the Company retains me as a consultant) or at any other time upon the Company’s request, I shall return to Company, without retaining any copies, all Proprietary Information and Trade Secrets, as well as all other Company’s documents and other materials, which are in my possession regardless of the form in which any such materials are kept;

A-3

(v) I agree to assist the Company, or its designee, at the Company’s expense, in every proper way to secure the Company’s rights in the work product (including Proprietary Information and/or Trade Secrets) and any rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to the Company of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other instruments which the Company shall deem proper or necessary in order to apply for, register, obtain, maintain, defend, and enforce such rights and in order to assign and convey to the Company, its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole and exclusive rights, title and interest in and to such work product and any rights relating thereto, and testifying in a suit or other proceeding relating to such work product and any rights relating thereto.

10. Specific Performance.

11. Waiver. The waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by me will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach by me.

12. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found invalid or unenforceable, that part will be amended to achieve as nearly as possible the same economic effect as the original provision and the remainder of this Agreement will remain in full force.
