predecessors, subsidiaries, assigns and fiduciaries, in their individual and/or
representative capacities, (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and
all claims, suits, agreements, promises, damages, demands, disputes,
controversies, contentions, differences, judgments, debts, dues, accounts,
reckonings, bonds, causes of action, costs, expenses, bills, attorney’s fees,
covenants, contracts, executions and demands of any kind whatsoever, which
Employee ever had, now has or may have against the Released Parties or any of
them, for, upon, or by reason of, any matter, action, omission, course or thing
whatsoever occurring or arising on or before or up to the Termination Date,
including, without limitation, in connection with or in relationship to
Employee’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or its
affiliates, Employee’s resignation from any and all positions that he holds or
may be deemed to hold with or in the Company, the termination of any such
employment or service relationship and any applicable employment, compensatory
or equity arrangement with the Company or its respective affiliates (such
released claims are collectively referred to herein as the “Released Claims”);
provided that such Released Claims shall not include any claims to enforce
Employee’s rights under, or with respect to, this Agreement. Employee
understands and agrees that this Release is a full and complete waiver of all
claims, aside from claims pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement, whether known
or unknown by him, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed,
including, but not limited to, any claims with respect to his entitlement to any
wages, bonuses, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance benefits or
other forms of compensation; any claims with respect to his purchase of, or
right to purchase, any capital stock of the Company; any claims of wrongful
discharge, breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair
dealing, violation of public policy, defamation, personal injury, emotional
distress; any claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
amended, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the California Fair Employment and
Housing Act, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, the Americans With Disabilities Act,
California Labor Code Section 1197.5, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), as related to
severance benefits, any family and medical leave acts; and any claims under any
other U.S. federal, state, or local, or any non-U.S., laws and regulations
relating to employment or employment discrimination. Employee agrees that the
benefits provided to him pursuant to this Agreement are in full satisfaction and
settlement of any such Released Claims. Employee represents and warrants that he
has not filed, and he will not file, any lawsuit or institute any proceeding,
charge, complaint or action asserting any such claim before any U.S. federal,
state, or local, or any non-U.S., administrative agency or court against any
Released Party, concerning any event occurring prior to the Termination Date.
Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be construed as prohibiting Employee
from filing a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission (“EEOC”) or participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted
by the EEOC. Employee also hereby agrees that nothing contained in this Release
shall constitute or be treated as an admission of liability or wrongdoing by any
of the Released Parties.

(b) ADEA. Employee represents that he is knowingly and voluntarily waiving any
and all rights that he currently may have arising under the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act of 1967, as amended. Employee understands that he has the
right to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement. Employee also
understands that he may have twenty-one (21) days after his receipt of this
Agreement within which he may review and consider, discuss with an attorney of
his own choosing, and decide to execute or not execute it. Employee further
understands that for a period of seven (7) days after he signs this Agreement,
he may revoke the Release (the “Revocation Period”). In order to revoke the
Release, Employee must deliver to the Chairman of the Board, by no later than
seven (7) days after he executes this Agreement, a letter stating that he is
revoking it. Employee understands and agrees that if he revokes the Release, he
will have no right to receive, and the Company will have no obligation to make
or provide, any of the payments described in Section 4 above or any other
benefits set forth in this Agreement. If Employee does not deliver such a
letter, then this Agreement shall become effective upon the expiration of the
Revocation Period, which is the seventh (7th) day after he executes this
Agreement. If Employee executes this Agreement prior to the twenty-first
(21) day after its delivery to him, Employee hereby acknowledges that his
decision to execute this Agreement prior to the expiration of such twenty-one
(21) day period was entirely voluntary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, the Company reserves the right to recall Employee
from any office which the Employee holds, including but not limited to the
office of Managing Director of SCM GmbH, and terminate any employment which the
Employee may have, including but not limited to the employment with SCM GmbH
(based inter alia on the agreement of 1993) should employee elect to revoke his
consent to this Agreement within the seven (7) day revocation period.

(c) Full Disclosure To Company. Employee represents and hereby reaffirms that he
has disclosed to the Company any information in Employee’s possession concerning
any conduct involving the Company that Employee has any reason to believe may be
unlawful or may violate Company policies in any material respect. In addition,
Employee hereby agrees that he will cooperate fully with the Company in
connection with any and all existing or future investigations or proceedings, if
any, initiated by or against the Company or any of the Released Parties, in
which (and to the extent) the Company deems Employee’s cooperation reasonably
necessary. Nothing set forth in the Release shall prevent Employee from
communicating with or participating in any government investigation. Employee
will act in good faith to furnish the information and cooperation required by
this Section 7(c).

(d) No Future Employment. Employee agrees that he will not be eligible for or
entitled to re-employment with the Company or any Company-affiliated or related
entities, at any time in the future, nor will Employee file any charge, claim or
lawsuit of any kind against the Company, any Company-affiliated or related
entities or the Released Parties, arising out of or in any way related to any
failure or refusal to employ Employee.

(e) Company Release. The Company hereby fully and forever releases and
discharges Employee from any and all claims, suits, agreements, promises,
damages, demands, disputes, controversies, contentions, differences, judgments,
debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, causes of action,
costs, expenses, bills, attorney’s fees, covenants, contracts, variances,
trespasses, extents, executions and demands of any kind whatsoever, which the
Company ever had, now has or may have against Employee for, upon, or by reason
of, any matter, action, omission, course or thing whatsoever occurring or
arising on or before or up to the Termination Date, including, without
limitation, in connection with or in relationship to Employee’s employment or
other service relationship with the Company or its affiliates; provided that
such released claims shall not include any claims to enforce the Company’s
rights under, or with respect to, this Agreement or relating to or arising out
of fraud, willful misconduct or illegal action on the part of Employee. The
Company understands and agrees that this release is a full and complete waiver
of all claims, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or
undisclosed.

8. Confidentiality and Non-Compete Covenants. The obligations of Employee under
the each of the subsections of this Section 8 are referred to collectively as
the “NDA and Non-Compete Covenants.”

(a) Confidential and Proprietary Information. Employee represents and warrants
that, at all times prior to the date on which he executes this Agreement, he has
been in full compliance with his obligation to maintain the confidentiality of
all confidential and proprietary information of the Company, including, without
limitation, under the terms of the Employment Agreements. During the
Compensation Period, Employee shall strictly keep secret any confidential
information concerning the business of the Company, including, but not limited
to, products, contractual arrangements, deals, customers, prices, business
strategies, raw material blending, manufacturing processes and prospects and any
other confidential affairs or information of the Company, and will not utilize
any such information in any manner for his own or for the benefit of others.
After the Compensation Period, the Employee’s duty of confidentiality as set
forth in preceding sentence shall survive. In case of a professional or
entrepreneurial activity of the Employee after the Compensation Period, he can
make use of his professional knowledge acquired during the Period, provided
that, the statutory limitations, including, but not limited to, those set forth
in sections 3, 17 UWG, 823, 826 Civil Code and the Data Protection Act, or
limitations arising from a post-termination non-compete (set forth in this
Agreement or otherwise), if any, are strictly observed. Employee acknowledges
that he is aware that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who
is in the possession of material non-public information about a company from
purchasing or selling that company’s securities in reliance upon such
information or from communicating such information to any other person or entity
under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person or
entity is likely to purchase or sell such securities in reliance upon such
information.

(b) Return of Company Property. As a condition to the performance of the
Company’s obligations under this Agreement, Employee is required to return, and
Employee hereby represents that as of the Termination Date he has returned to
the Company, all of the Company’s property, documents, records and other
materials, including, but not limited to, any confidential or proprietary
information, in his possession, custody or control (and all copies, whether in
paper, electronic or other format, thereof), on or before the Termination Date,
except for any property that the Company expressly agrees Employee may retain.

(c) Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from making any derogatory,
disparaging and/or detrimental statements to any other person or third parties
about the Company or any of the Released Parties, including, but not limited to,
the Company’s directors, officers, investors, employees, products or services.
Employee also agrees that he will not act in any manner that might interfere
with the business or disparage the reputation of the Company or any of the
Released Parties. The Company agrees to direct each of the current members of
its Board and its current executive officers to refrain from making any
derogatory, disparaging and/or detrimental statements to any other person or
third parties about Employee. Nothing set forth in this Section 8(c) shall
prohibit or limit in any way a Party’s right to accurately and honestly respond
as required or to cooperate with any valid government, court or regulatory order
or request.

(d) Competition Prohibition. During the first twenty (20) months of the
Compensation Period, Employee agrees that he will not engage, directly or
indirectly, professionally or occasionally, for his own account or the account
of a third party, independently or dependently, in any other employment,
occupation, consulting or other business activity competitive with or related to
the current or future business of the Company, nor shall Employee acquire,
obtain an equity interest in (excluding Employee’s investment in Spyrus existing
as of the date of the signature of this Agreement and in any other company of
which Employee currently or in the future, beneficially or of records owns,
holds or controls, directly or indirectly, less than 5% of the equity or other
securities, in each case, solely as a passive investment), or otherwise support,
an enterprise which engages in business activity competitive with or related to
the current or future business of the Company. The restriction on competition
set forth in the preceding paragraph shall especially apply to the territory of
Europe, the United States of America and Japan. As compensation for compliance
with this restriction on competition, Employee shall receive the payments set
forth in Section 4, which shall be payable as indicated therein.

(e) Inventions, Copyrights. Rights to inventions or technical improvements which
Employee made or worked out during his activity on behalf of the Company, in
connection with his activity on behalf of the Company, as a result of his
experiences arising from his activity on behalf of the Company or on the basis
of studies of the Company, in each case, shall be held solely by the Company,
and, insofar as such rights have not yet been transferred to Company, Employee
hereby assigns all such rights including all applicant’s rights, the entitlement
to the priority of the rights and the right to file for intellectual property
protection abroad at this time to SCM GmbH. In particular, Employee hereby
assigns and transfers to SCM GmbH all intellectual property rights belonging to
the following patent families, including, without limitation, all applicant’s
rights, the entitlement to the priority of the rights and the right to file for
intellectual property protection abroad and SCM GmbH hereby accepts the
assignment and transfer of such rights:

(i) internal SCM patent number 4466 xx — Cash Mouse Patent (Mechanical Patent
rel. to Class 3 reader), including the subseries S 4466 DE, S 4466 DE E, S 4466
FR, and

(ii) internal SCM patent number 4245 xx — PC Card reader Close (PCMCIA
Mechanical Patent), including the subseries S 4245 DE G, S 4245 DE E, S 4245 FR,
S 4245 GB, S 4245 IT, S 4245 JP, S 4245 SE, S 4245 SG, S 4245 US.

The Company shall not be obligated to pay any additional compensation to
Employee for the transfer of any rights under this Section 8 (e). The Employee
Invention Act shall not be applicable in the absence of employee status on the
part of Employee. Accordingly, Employee hereby assigns to SCM GmbH the exclusive
use, at no charge, of any copyrights arising through him for works created in
connection with his activity, as a result of his experience arising from his
activities on behalf of the Company or on the basis of studies by the Company.

9. Taxes. Any payments or benefits provided pursuant to this Agreement will be
subject to applicable tax withholdings. Employee expressly permits the Company
to deduct from any amounts due hereunder such amounts as necessary to satisfy
any withholding or employment tax obligations arising in connection with the
termination of his employment, including, but not limited to, the cancellation
of any debt, the payment of any amount or the provision of any benefit
hereunder.

10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the exhibits hereto) sets forth
the entire agreement between the Company and Employee and supersedes any prior
agreements (including, without limitation, the Employment Agreements) or
understanding, whether oral or written, concerning the subject matter set forth
herein. This Agreement may not be altered or amended except by a written
document signed by the Parties. Employee expressly agrees that, except as set
forth herein, the terms of this Agreement supersede the terms of any individual
agreement or understanding with the Company relating to Employee’s rights as an
employee of the Company, including, but not limited to, the Employment
Agreements. Employee acknowledges that he is executing this Agreement
voluntarily and knowingly and that he has not relied upon any representation or
statement made by the Company, the Released Parties or their respective agents
with respect to the subject matter, basis or effect of this Agreement, other
than those specifically stated in this Agreement. This Agreement shall be
binding upon Employee and Employee’s successors, heirs, administrators and
executors and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, the Released Parties
and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement is drafted in both
German and English version. In case of discrepancies or contradictions between
the German and the English version, the English version shall prevail.

11. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision
of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any one or more of the provisions or portions
of any provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect or to any degree, the validity, legality and
enforceability of any remaining provision of this Agreement that is not closely
related to the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall not be affected
thereby and said illegal, unenforceable or invalid provisions, solely to the
extent of such invalidity, illegality and unenforceability, shall be deemed not
to be a part of this Agreement.

12. Governing Law; Venue.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted and enforced by and under the
laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, without regard to its conflicts of law
provisions.

(b) The parties irrevocably consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the courts located in Munich, Germany, for the adjudication of any dispute, suit
or proceeding based on or arising under this Agreement or in connection with any
of the transactions contemplated hereby, and irrevocably agree that all claims
in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in such courts. The
parties irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such suit or proceeding.

(c) To the extent permissible under procedural law, the parties further agree
that service of process upon the other party mailed by first class mail shall be
deemed in every respect effective service of process upon such party in any such
suit or proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the parties to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The parties agree that a
final non-appealable judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive
and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any
other lawful manner.

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed to be an original and together shall be deemed to be one and the
same document.

14. Voluntary Execution. Employee hereby understands and agrees that:

(a) He has been given twenty-one (21) days from the date that this Agreement was

of this Agreement without his signature having been revoked in a writing
received by the Company within the seven (7) day Revocation Period and (ii) the
Termination Date; and

(h) He is under no disability or impairment that affects his decision to sign
this Agreement and knowingly and voluntarily intends to be legally bound by this
Agreement.

15. Non-Admission of Wrongdoing. This Agreement does not in any way constitute,
and should not be interpreted or construed, as an admission by the Company or
any of the Released Parties or any of their respective agents of any wrongdoing
or inappropriate conduct with respect to Employee or any other person, or that
Employee has any rights whatsoever against the Company, any of the Released
Parties or any of their respective agents. The Company specifically disclaims
