COVENANTS

1.Consideration.

a.Payments. The Company agrees to employ and pay Employee through the Separation
Date, as of which Employee’s employment with the Company will automatically
terminate, without further action.

(i)Employee agrees that he is not eligible or entitled to receive (and shall not
be deemed to have earned) any incentive or other bonus payment for the Company’s
quarter ending September 30, 2015.

not eligible or entitled to receive any payment or benefit under the Separation
Agreement.

2015 under his existing Company-provided healthcare programs and will receive
information on the right to continue group health insurance coverage under the
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) after the Separation

the Separation Date with respect to equity awards which existed as of the

prosecute or pursue, any claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, demand, or
cause of action relating to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or
unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Employee may possess against any of the
Releasees arising from any omissions, acts, facts, or damages that have occurred
up until and including the Effective Date of this Agreement, including, without
limitation:

a.    any and all claims relating to or arising from Employee’s employment
relationship with the Company and the termination of that relationship;

b.    any and all claims relating to, or arising from, Employee’s right to
purchase, or actual purchase of shares of stock of the Company, including,
without limitation, any claims for fraud, misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary
duty, breach of duty under applicable state corporate law, and securities fraud

California or any other of the United States;

c.    any and all claims for wrongful discharge of employment; termination in
violation of public policy; discrimination; harassment; retaliation; breach of
contract, both express and implied; breach of covenant of good faith and fair
dealing, both express and implied; promissory estoppel; negligent or intentional
infliction of emotional distress; fraud; negligent or intentional
misrepresentation; negligent or intentional interference with contract or
prospective economic advantage; unfair business practices; defamation; libel;

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

d.    any and all claims for violation of any international, federal, state, or
municipal statute, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Equal Pay Act; the Fair Labor
Standards Act, except as prohibited by law; the Fair Credit Reporting Act; the
Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967; the Older Workers Benefit
Protection Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; the Worker
Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act,
except as prohibited by law; the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; the California

Employee agrees that the release set forth in this section shall be and remain
in effect in all respects as a complete general release as to the matters
released. This release does not extend to any obligations incurred under this
Agreement. This release does not release claims that cannot be released as a
matter of law, including, but not limited to Employee’s right to file a charge
with or participate in a charge by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission,
or any other local, state, or federal administrative body or government agency
that is authorized to enforce or administer laws related to employment, against
the Company (with the understanding that any such filing or participation does
not give Employee the right to recover any monetary damages against the Company;
Employee’s release of claims herein bars Employee from recovering such monetary
relief from the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee acknowledges
that any and all disputed wage claims that are released herein shall be subject
to binding arbitration in accordance with Paragraph 16, which precludes Employee
from filing a claim with the California Division of Labor Standards Enforcement
or an equivalent federal or state agency. Employee represents that he/she has
made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, complaint, charge, duty,
obligation, demand, cause of action, or other matter waived or released by this
Section.

4.Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA. Employee acknowledges that
he/she is waiving and releasing any rights he/she may have under the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 ("ADEA"), and that this waiver and
release is knowing and voluntary. Employee agrees that this waiver and release
does not apply to any rights or claims to the extent that they may arise under
the ADEA after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that
the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything
of value to which Employee was already entitled. Employee further acknowledges
that he/she has been advised by this writing that: (a) he/she should consult
with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (b) he/she has twenty-one
(21) days within which to consider this Agreement; (c) he/she has seven (7) days
following his execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement, such
revocation to be provided in writing to the Company, Attn: C.E.O., via either
certified or electronic mail; (d) this Agreement shall not be effective until
after the revocation period has expired; and (e) nothing in this Agreement
prevents or precludes Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in
good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any
condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically
authorized by U.S. federal law. In the event Employee signs this Agreement and
returns it to the Company in less than the 21-day period identified above,
Employee hereby acknowledges that he/she has freely and voluntarily chosen to
waive the time period allotted for considering this Agreement. Employee
acknowledges and understands that revocation must be accomplished by a written
notification to the person executing this Agreement on the Company’s behalf that
is received prior to the Effective Date. The parties agree that any changes to
this Agreement agreed to by the Parties but made after commencement of the
21-day period, whether such changes are material, do not restart the running of
the 21-day period.

5.California Civil Code Section 1542. Employee acknowledges that he/she has been
advised to consult with legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of
California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the
release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR
SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH
IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH
THE DEBTOR.

Employee, being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights
he/she may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law
principles of similar effect.

6.No Pending or Future Lawsuits. Employee represents that he/she has no
lawsuits, claims, or actions pending in his name, or on behalf of any other
person or entity, against the Company or any of the other Releasees. Employee
also represents that he/she does not intend to bring any claims on his/her own
behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any of
the other Releasees.

7.Application for Employment. Employee understands and agrees that, as a
condition of this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to any further or
future employment with the Company, and Employee hereby waives any right, or
alleged right, of employment or re-employment with the Company.

8.Confidentiality. The Parties agree to maintain in complete confidence the
existence of this Agreement, the contents and terms of this Agreement, and the
consideration for this Agreement (hereinafter collectively referred to as
“Separation Information”). Except as required by law, the Parties may disclose
Separation Information only to (with respect to Employee) his/her immediate
family members, the Court in any proceedings to enforce the terms of this
Agreement, their respective counsel, accountants, and any professional tax
advisor to the extent that they need to know the Separation Information in order
to provide advice on tax treatment or to prepare tax returns, and must prevent
disclosure of any Separation Information to all other third parties; provided,
however, that the Company shall be permitted to disclose Settlement Information
to Company officers, directors, and employees who have a business need to know
such information; provided further, that the Company may disclose Separation
Information to any third party that has signed a confidentiality agreement, in
connection with the due diligence process of a financing, merger, acquisition,
sale, or similar business transaction. The Parties agree that they will not
publicize, directly or indirectly, any Separation Information.

Employee acknowledges and agrees that the confidentiality of the Separation
Information is of the essence. Employee hereby agrees to be responsible in
liquidated damages, as set forth below, if he/she breaches any of the foregoing
terms or in any way divulges any part of the Separation Information to any
unauthorized third party, except to the extent that such breach constitutes a
legal action by Employee that directly pertains to the ADEA. Any such individual
breach or disclosure shall not excuse Employee from his/her obligations
hereunder, nor permit him/her to make additional disclosures. Employee warrants
that he/she has not disclosed, orally or in writing, directly or indirectly, any
of the Separation Information to any unauthorized party.

9.LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE PRECISE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES
FLOWING FROM ANY DISCLOSURE IN VIOLATION OF THE CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISION SET
FORTH IN THE PRECEDING PARAGRAPH WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT
TO CALCULATE OR PROVE, AND THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT IF EITHER PARTY
BREACHES THE PRECEDING PARAGRAPH, PROXIMATELY CAUSING THE ABOVE-DESCRIBED
SEPARATION INFORMATION TO BE RECEIVED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, BY ANYONE IN
VIOLATION OF THE ABOVE CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISION, THE NON-BREACHING PARTY SHALL
BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE FROM THE BREACHING PARTY AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES THE SUM OF
ONE THOUSAND US DOLLARS ($1,000) PER PROVEN BREACH.

10.Trade Secrets and Confidential Information/Company Property. Employee
reaffirms and agrees to observe and abide by the terms of the Confidentiality
Agreement, specifically including the provisions therein regarding nondisclosure
of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information, and
non-solicitation of Company employees. Employee’s signature below constitutes
his/her certification under penalty of perjury that he/she has returned all
documents and other items provided to Employee by the Company, developed or
obtained by Employee in connection with his/her employment with the Company, or
otherwise belonging to the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

11.No Cooperation. Employee agrees not to act in any manner that might damage
the business of the Company. Employee further agrees that he/she will not
knowingly encourage, counsel, or assist any attorneys or their clients in the
presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims,
charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the Releasees, unless
under a subpoena or other court order to do so or as related directly to the
ADEA waiver in this Agreement. Employee agrees both to immediately notify the
Company upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order, and to furnish, within
three (3) business days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or other court
order. If approached by anyone for counsel or assistance in the presentation or
prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or
complaints against any of the Releasees, Employee shall state no more than that
he/she cannot provide counsel or assistance.

12.Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from any disparaging statements
about the Company or any of the other Releasees including, without limitation,
the business, products, intellectual property, financial standing, future, or
employment/compensation/benefit practices of the Company, and agrees to refrain
from any tortious interference with the contracts and relationships of any of
the Releasees. Employee shall direct any inquiries by potential future employers
to the Company’s human resources department, which shall use its best efforts to
provide only the Employee’s last position and dates of employment.

13.Breach. Notwithstanding the provisions provided in the “Attorneys’ Fees”
section below, Employee acknowledges and agrees that any material breach of this
Agreement, unless such breach constitutes a legal action by Employee challenging
or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the waiver herein
under the ADEA, or of any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement shall
entitle the Company immediately to cease providing the consideration provided to
Employee under this Agreement, to recover such consideration already provided
and to obtain damages, except as provided by law.

14.No Admission of Liability. Employee understands and acknowledges that this
Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of any and all actual or
potential disputed claims by Employee. No action taken by the Company hereto,
either previously or in connection with this Agreement, shall be deemed or
construed to be (a) an admission of the truth or falsity of any actual or
potential claims or (b) an acknowledgment or admission by the Company of any
fault or liability whatsoever to Employee or to any third party.

15.Costs. The Parties shall each bear their own costs, attorneys’ fees, and
other fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Agreement.

16.ARBITRATION. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF THE
TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEIR INTERPRETATION, THE CONDUCT OR CIRCUMSTANCES OF

ARBITRATION, MEDIATION AND ADR SERVICES, PURSUANT TO ITS EMPLOYMENT ARBITRATION
RULES & PROCEDURES THEN IN-EFFECT (“JAMS RULES”). THE ARBITRATOR MAY GRANT
INJUNCTIONS AND OTHER RELIEF IN SUCH DISPUTES. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL ADMINISTER
AND CONDUCT ANY ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA LAW, INCLUDING THE
CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, AND THE ARBITRATOR SHALL APPLY SUBSTANTIVE
AND PROCEDURAL CALIFORNIA LAW TO ANY SUCH DISPUTE OR CLAIM, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO
ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAW PROVISIONS OF ANY JURISDICTION. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE JAMS
RULES CONFLICT WITH CALIFORNIA LAW, CALIFORNIA LAW SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE. THE
DECISION OF THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE FINAL, CONCLUSIVE, AND BINDING ON THE
PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION, AND SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO APPEAL. THE PARTIES
AGREE THAT THE PREVAILING PARTY IN ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO
INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO ENFORCE THE
ARBITRATION AWARD. THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION SHALL EACH PAY AN EQUAL SHARE
OF THE COSTS AND EXPENSES OF SUCH ARBITRATION, AND EACH PARTY SHALL SEPARATELY
PAY FOR ITS RESPECTIVE COUNSEL FEES AND EXPENSES. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT
ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT, AND SHALL BE WITHOUT JURISDICITON OR AUTHORITY, TO AWARD
ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS TO A PARTY (EVEN WHERE SUCH PARTY IS THE PREVAILING
PARTY AND EVEN WHERE SUCH PARTY’S ATTORNEY’S FEES AND COSTS BEAR A REASONABLE
RELATION TO SUCH PARTIES ACTUAL RECOVERY). THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE
THEIR RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BETWEEN THEM RESOLVED IN A COURT OF LAW BY A JUDGE OR JURY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE
FOREGOING, THIS SECTION WILL NOT PREVENT EITHER PARTY FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE
RELIEF (OR ANY OTHER PROVISIONAL REMEDY) FROM ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER
THE PARTIES AND THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THEIR DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE AGREEMENTS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE. SHOULD ANY PART OF THE

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS
ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN.

assessments thereon. Employee further agrees to indemnify and hold the Company
harmless from any claims, demands, deficiencies, penalties, interest,
assessments, executions, judgments, or recoveries by any government agency
against the Company for any amounts claimed due on account of (a) Employee’s
failure to pay or the Company’s failure to withhold, or Employee’s delayed
payment of, federal or state taxes, or (b) damages sustained by the Company by
reason of any such claims, including attorneys’ fees and costs.
