Executive hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Employment. Employer hereby employs Executive, and Executive hereby accepts such employment

(the “Start Date”). 
 2. Employment at Will. Executive is employed
“at-will,” which means that Executive’s employment is not for any defined term and may be terminated by either Executive or the Company at any time, with or without cause, for any or no reason,
subject to the notice provisions herein. 
 3. Position and Duties. 

3.1 Service with Employer. Employer hereby employs Executive in an executive capacity with the title of Chief Financial Officer and
Executive hereby accepts such employment and undertakes and agrees to serve in such capacity. Executive shall have such powers, perform such duties and fulfill such responsibilities as are typically associated with such position in other similarly
situated companies. Executive shall report directly to the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. 
 3.2 Performance of
Duties. Executive agrees to: (i) devote substantially all of Executive’s business time, attention and efforts to the business and affairs of Employer while employed; and (ii) adhere to all Employer’s written employment
policies and procedures as shall be in force from time to time. 
 3.3 Outside Activities. During the Term, Executive shall not:
(i) except as set forth below, accept other employment; (ii) except as set forth below, render or perform services for compensation to any Person (as hereinafter defined) other than Employer; (iii) serve as an officer or on the board
of directors (or similar governing body) of any entity other than Employer, whether or not for compensation; or (iv) engage in any other business, enterprise or activity that will require any effort on the part of Executive that, in the sole
discretion of Employer, could reasonably be expected to materially detract from the ability of Executive to perform Executive’s duties to Employer pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, Executive may engage in the activities set forth
in Schedule A hereto or described in clause (iii) or (iv) above if prior to engaging in such activity, Executive has disclosed such activity to the Board and received written approval to engage in such activity from the Board. Executive shall
be permitted to continue in his capacity as a director of Salarius Pharmaceuticals. Executive may engage in personal investments without 











 
disclosure to or written approval from the Board provided Executive is not required or expected to serve as a board member, advisor or consultant and Executive shall, at any time, own
beneficially less than 2% of the outstanding securities of any issuer and such personal investment shall not otherwise interfere with Executive’s performance of duties hereunder and/or the provisions of Executive’s written agreements with
Employer. 
 3.4 Executive Representations. Executive represents that Executive is not subject to any restrictive covenant,
confidentiality agreement, or any other agreement that would prevent Executive from accepting employment with Employer, and based on the information provided to Employer by Executive, Employer accepts such representation. 

4. Compensation. 
 4.1
Base Salary. Employer shall pay to Executive an annualized base salary of $416,000.00 for all services to be rendered by Executive under this Agreement (the “Base Salary”), which Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with
Employer’s normal payroll schedule, procedures and policies (which schedule, procedures and policies may be modified from time to time) and subject to applicable deductions as required by law. Employer shall review Executive’s salary on an
annual basis and may, in its discretion, consider and declare from time to time increases in the Base Salary that it pays Executive. Any and all increases in Executive’s salary pursuant to this section shall cause the level of Base Salary to be
increased by the amount of each such increase for purposes of this Agreement. The increased level of Base Salary as provided in this section shall become the level of Base Salary for the remainder of the term of this Agreement unless there is a
further increase in Base Salary as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Base Salary of Executive may be decreased provided it is done so in proportion to decreases in Base Salary of the entire executive team of Employer. 

4.2 Sign-on Bonus. Executive acknowledges that Employer has paid Executive a sign-on bonus in the total gross amount of $100,000.00 (the “Sign-on Bonus”). If Executive terminates his employment with Employer without Good Reason (as defined
below) or if Employer terminates Executive’s employment for Cause (as defined below) (i) at any time on or before the first anniversary of the Start Date, Executive will be obligated to repay to Employer one hundred percent (100%) of the Sign-on Bonus, or (ii) between the first anniversary and the second anniversary of the Start Date, Executive will be obligated to repay to Employer fifty percent (50%) of the
Sign-on Bonus. 
 4.3 Annual Bonus. Executive will be eligible to participate in
Employer’s annual cash incentive compensation plan on substantially the same terms as other executive officers. Company-wide and individual performance objectives (“MBOs”) will be established by the Compensation Committee and
Executive’s Annual Bonus is targeted at forty percent (40%) of Executive’s base salary. Target incentives do not constitute a promise of payment and Executive’s actual bonus, if any, will depend in part on Employer’s performance
and the Compensation Committee’s discretion in assessing Executive’s individual performance in relation to his or her MBOs and the overall performance and status of the Company. To qualify for the incentive bonus, Executive must remain
employed with the Company through the date that the incentive bonus is paid in accordance with Employer’s normal practice.

 4.4 Participation in Benefit Plans. Executive shall be entitled to participate in all
employee benefit plans or programs offered to other senior executives from time to time (to the extent that Executive meets the requirements for each such plan or program), including participation in any health insurance plan, disability insurance
plan, dental plan, eye care plan, 401(k) plan, life insurance plan, or other similar plans (all such benefits, the “Benefit Plans”). Some or all of the benefits may be provided by Employer’s leasing agent Insperity (or its
successor(s) or assign(s). 
 4.5 Expenses. Employer shall reimburse Executive for all ordinary and necessary business expenses
reasonably incurred by him in the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement, subject to the presentment and approval of appropriate itemized expense statements, receipts, vouchers or other supporting documentation in accordance
with Employer’s normal policies for expense verification in effect from time to time. 
 4.6 Paid Time Off. Executive shall be
entitled to paid time off pursuant to Employer’s standard paid time off policies in the same manner as the Company’s other Senior Executives. Unused paid time off may be carried over from year to year, but in no case may more than 45 days
(360 hours) of unused paid time off be accrued. 
 4.7 Stock Options. Executive acknowledges that Employer granted Executive a stock
option to purchase 202,000 shares of Employer common stock on the Start Date at a purchase price equal to the closing price of Employer’s common stock on the Start date (the “Option”). The Option is subject to the provisions of
Employer’s 2013 Equity and Incentive Plan and the Stock Option Award Agreement entered into by Executive and Employer following the grant, which in relevant part requires that such Option (i) vests 25% on the first anniversary of the Start
Date and 1/48 on each month anniversary thereafter until fully vested on the fourth anniversary of the Start Date; (ii) expires ten (10) years from the grant date; and (iii) may be exercised (as to the vested portion) for ninety

(a) The payment to Executive of the Severance Amount in a lump sum immediately following the Termination Date. 

(b) For this purpose, “Severance Amount” means: 

(i) In the event that (x) a Change of Control occurs within six (6) months following the Start Date and
(y) Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following the Start Date, an amount equal to the product of 0.75 multiplied by Executive’s annual Base Salary. 

(ii) In the event that (x) a Change of Control occurs more than six (6) months following the Start Date and
(y) Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following such Change of Control, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the product of 1.0 multiplied by

 (iii) In the event that (x) Executive’s employment is terminated
without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason (in each case other than within twelve (12) months of a Change in Control) and (y) Executive has worked in the position for a period of at least one (1) month, an amount equal to the sum
of (A) the product of 0.75 multiplied by Executive’s annual Base Salary plus (B), the product of Executive’s target bonus in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination multiplied by a fraction equal to the quotient of the
number of days during such year on which Executive was employed by the Company, divided by 365. 
 (c) The continuation of
Executive’s participation in the Company’s medical, dental, and vision benefit plans at the same premium cost to Executive as charged to Executive immediately prior to the Termination Date for a period of (i) in the event that a
Change of Control occurs within six (6) months following the Start Date and Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following the Start Date, for a period of
nine (9) months or, if earlier, until Executive obtains other employment which provides the same type of benefit, or (ii) in the event that Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason (in each
case other than within twelve (12) months of a Change in Control) or, if earlier, until Executive obtains other employment which provides the same type of benefit, or (iii) in the event that a Change of Control occurs more than six months
after the Start Date and Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following such a Change of Control, for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the
Termination Date or if earlier, until Executive obtains other employment which provides the same type of benefit; provided, however, that (i) it is understood and agreed that such continued medical, dental and vision benefits may at the
election of the Company be provided by Executive electing the continuation of such coverage pursuant to COBRA with the Company reimbursing Executive for COBRA premiums to the extent required so that Executive’s premium cost for the coverage in
effect for Executive prior to the Termination Date is substantially the same as immediately prior to the Termination Date, and (ii) if the Company determines, in its reasonable judgment, that providing medical, dental, and/or vision benefits in
accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 5.5(c) would result in a violation of applicable law, the imposition of any penalties under applicable law, or adverse tax consequences for participants covered by the Company’s
medical, dental, and/or vision plans, the Company may terminate such coverage (or reimbursement) with respect to Executive and instead pay to Executive taxable cash payments at the same time and in the same amounts as the Company would have paid as
premiums (or as COBRA premium reimbursements) to provide such coverage.

 (d) Acceleration of vesting as follows: 

(i) In the event that (x) a Change of Control occurs within six (6) months following the Start Date and
(y) Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following the Start Date, then the Option shall automatically vest with respect to 1/48 of the shares underlying the
Option multiplied by a number equal to the number of full months since the Start Date, resulting in a vesting schedule equal to 1/48 of the awarded shares underlying the Option on each month anniversary after the Start Date. 

(ii) In the event that (x) a Change of Control occurs more than six (6) months following the Start Date and
(y) Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months following such Change of Control: each stock option, restricted stock unit, restricted stock award or other stock-based
compensatory award granted by the Company to Executive that is outstanding as of the Termination Date and is not fully vested as of the date of the Termination Date (each an “Award”), shall become fully vested as of the date Executive
provides the Company with the Irrevocable Release provided for in Section 5.6 within the period prescribed therein. 

(iii) In the case of any Award the vesting of which is contingent in whole or in part upon the attainment of any Company or
market performance condition that has not yet been satisfied, such condition shall be deemed to have been satisfied as of the date of termination at the level that would result in vesting of 100% of the number of shares stated as the target award.

 (e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” means, and shall be deemed to have occurred, if: 

(i) any Person, excluding (i) employee benefit plans of the Company or any of its Affiliates, is or becomes the
“beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, which Rules shall apply for purposes of this clause (a) whether or not the
Company is subject to the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of Company securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (“Voting Power”); 

(ii) the Company consummates a merger, consolidation, share exchange, division or other reorganization or transaction of the
Company (a “Fundamental Transaction”) with any other corporation, other than a Fundamental Transaction that results in the voting securities of the

Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at least fifty percent
(50%) of the combined Voting Power immediately after such Fundamental Transaction of (i) the Company’s outstanding securities, (ii) the surviving entity’s outstanding securities, or (iii) in the case of a division, the
outstanding securities of each entity resulting from the division; 
 (iii) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan
of complete liquidation or winding-up of the Company or the consummation of the sale or disposition (in one transaction or a series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; or

 (iv) during any period of 24 consecutive months, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the Board
(including for this purpose any new director whose election or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in
office who were directors at the beginning of such period or whose appointment, election or nomination was previously so approved or recommended) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board. 

5.6 Required Delivery of Irrevocable Release; Compliance with Section 6 Obligations. Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 5.5, as a condition to entitlement to the Severance Benefits, Executive must provide to the Company an Irrevocable Release and Noncompete Affirmation not later than the sixtieth day after the Date of Termination; provided however
that if the sixty day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a subsequent calendar year, any payment to be made or benefit to be provided upon receipt of the Irrevocable Release and Noncompete Affirmation shall not be made or provided until
the subsequent year. In the event Executive fails to provide an Irrevocable Release and Noncompete Affirmation to the Company within such sixty day period, the Company will immediately cease to pay or provide any further Severance Benefits, no
accelerated vesting of stock options or other awards pursuant to Section 5.5(d) shall occur, and Executive shall be obligated to immediately repay to the Company all previously paid or provided Severance Benefits. “Irrevocable Release and
Noncompete Affirmation” means a confidential separation agreement, release of claims and affirmation of noncompete, in form and substance substantially similar to the attached Exhibit A that has been executed by Executive, delivered to the
Company, and become irrevocable by Executive. In addition, in the event that Executive breaches the obligations under Section 6 of this Agreement at any time during the Continuation Period, Executive will cease to be entitled to any further
Severance Benefits.

time to time) any and all Company Inventions. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any work of authorship by Executive or others comprising Company Inventions shall be deemed to be a “work made for hire,” as that term is defined in the
United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 101 (2000)). To the extent that any such work of authorship may not be deemed to be a work made for hire, Executive hereby irrevocably assigns any ownership rights Executive may have in and to such work

 6.8 Acknowledgements Regarding Other Promises and
Covenants. With regard to the promises and covenants set forth herein, Executive acknowledges and agrees that: 
 (a) the
restrictions are ancillary to an otherwise enforceable agreement including the provisions of this Agreement regarding the disclosure, ownership and use of the Confidential Information and Goodwill of Company; 

(b) the limitations as to time, geographical area, and scope of activity to be restricted are reasonable and acceptable to
Executive, and do not impose any greater restraint than is reasonably necessary to protect the Goodwill and other legitimate business interests of Company; 

(c) the performance by Executive, and the enforcement by Company, of such promises and covenants will cause no undue hardship
on Executive; 

  
 13 












 (d) the time periods covered by the promises and covenants will not include
any period(s) of violation of, or any period(s) of time required for litigation brought by Company to enforce any such promise or covenant, it being understood that the extension of time provided in this paragraph may not exceed two (2) years.

hereunder, Executive shall provide written notice to any prospective employer of Executive’s obligations under this Agreement. 
 6.10
Independent Elements. The parties acknowledge that the promises and covenants contained in Section 6 above are essential independent elements of this Agreement and that, but for Executive agreeing to comply with them, Company would not
employ Executive. Accordingly, the existence or assertion of any claim by Executive against Company, whether based on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not operate as a defense to Company’s enforcement of the promises and covenants in
Section 6. An alleged or actual breach of the Agreement by Company will not be a defense to enforcement of any such promise or covenant, or other obligations of Executive to Company. The promises and covenants in Section 6 will remain in
full force and effect whether Executive is terminated by Company or voluntarily resigns. 
 6.11 Remedies for Breach of Agreement.
Executive acknowledges that Executive’s breach of any promise or covenant contained in Section 6 will result in irreparable injury to Company and that Company’s remedies at law for such a breach will be inadequate. Accordingly,
Executive agrees and consents that Company, in addition to all other remedies available at law and in equity, shall be entitled to seek both preliminary and permanent injunctions to prevent and/or halt a breach or threatened breach by Executive of
any such promise or covenant, and Executive waives the requirement of the posting of any bond in connection with such injunctive relief. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the promises and covenants contained in Section 6 are
enforceable, reasonable, and valid. 
 7. Miscellaneous.  

7.1 Governing Law; Arbitration  

(a) This Agreement is made under and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Florida, without regard
to its conflicts of law principles. 
 (b) With respect to claims by the Company against Executive related to
Executive’s threatened or actual breach of Section 6 of this Agreement, each Party hereby irrevocably agrees that all actions or proceedings concerning such disputes may be brought by the Company in (a) the United States District
Court for the Northern District of Florida; or (b) in any court of the State of Florida sitting in Alachua County, provided that the United States District Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding. Executive
consents to jurisdiction of and venue in the courts in the State of Florida set forth in this Section, and hereby waives to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law any objection which Executive may have based on improper venue or forum non
conveniens. 

  
 14 












 (c) Except to the extent provided for in subsection (b) above, the
Company and Executive agree that any claim, dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement, or otherwise in connection with Executive’s employment by the Company or termination of his employment (including, without
limitation, any such claim, dispute or controversy arising under any federal, state or local statute, regulation or ordinance or any of the Company’s employee benefit plans, policies or programs) shall be resolved solely and exclusively by
binding, confidential, arbitration. The arbitration shall be held in Gainesville, Florida (or at such other location as shall be mutually agreed by the parties). The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the
American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in effect at the time of the arbitration, including the Expedited Procedures. All fees and expenses of the arbitration, including a transcript if either requests, shall be borne equally by the
parties. Each party is responsible for the fees and expenses of its own attorneys, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of proofs and post-hearing briefs (unless the party prevails on a claim for which attorney’s fees are
recoverable under law). In rendering a decision, the arbitrator shall apply all legal principles and standards that would govern if the dispute were being heard in court. This includes the availability of all remedies that the parties could obtain
in court. In addition, all statutes of limitation and defenses that would be applicable in court, will apply to the arbitration proceeding. The decision of the arbitrator shall be set forth in writing, and be binding and conclusive on all parties.
Any action to enforce or vacate the arbitrator’s award shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, if applicable, and otherwise by applicable state law. If either the Company or Executive improperly pursues any claim, dispute or
controversy against the other in a proceeding other than the arbitration provided for herein, the responding party shall be entitled to dismissal or injunctive relief regarding such action and recovery of all costs, losses and attorney’s fees
related to such action. 
 7.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referenced herein contain the entire agreement of
the parties relating to the employment of Executive by Employer and the ancillary matters discussed herein and supersedes all prior agreements, negotiations and understandings with respect to such matters, including, without limitation, any term
sheet between the parties hereto with respect to such matters, and the parties hereto have made no agreements, representations or warranties relating to such employment or ancillary matters which are not set forth herein. 

7.3 Withholding Taxes. Employer may withhold from any compensation and Benefits payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city
or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling. 
 7.4 Golden Parachute Limit.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that any portion of the Severance Benefits or any other payment or benefit received or to be received by Executive (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other
plan, arrangement or agreement) (collectively, the “Total Benefits”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (the “Excise Tax”),
the Total Benefits shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no 

  
 15 












 
portion of the Total Benefits is subject to the Excise Tax; provided, however, that no such reduction in the Total Benefits shall be made if by not making such reduction, Executive’s
Retained Amount (as hereinafter defined) would be greater than Executive’s Retained Amount if the Total Benefits are so reduced. All determinations required to be made under this Section 7.4 shall be made by tax counsel selected by the
Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive (“Tax Counsel”), which determinations shall be conclusive and binding on Executive and the Company absent manifest error. All fees and expenses of Tax Counsel shall be borne solely by the
Company. Prior to any reduction in Executive’s Total Benefits pursuant to this Section 7.4, Tax Counsel shall provide Executive and the Company with a report setting forth its calculations and containing related supporting information. In
the event any such reduction is required, the Total Benefits shall be reduced in the following order: (i) the Severance Amount (in reverse order of payment), (iii) any portion of the Total Benefits that are not subject to Section 409A of
the Code (other than Total Benefits resulting from any accelerated vesting of equity awards), (iv) other Total Benefits that are subject to Section 409A of the Code in reverse order of payment, and (v) Total Benefits that are not subject
to Section 409A and arise from any accelerated vesting of any equity awards. “Retained Amount” shall mean the present value (as determined in accordance with sections 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii) and 280G(d)(4) of the Code) of the Total Benefits
net of all federal, state and local taxes imposed on Executive with respect thereto. 
 7.5 Compliance With
Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (including the exceptions thereto), to the extent applicable, and shall be interpreted and administered accordingly. If
any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or the exemptions intended to apply under this Agreement), this Agreement shall be deemed to be reformed to comply with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code (or applicable exemptions thereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining Executive’s entitlement to the Severance Benefits under Section 5 hereof,
(a) Executive’s employment shall not be deemed to have terminated unless and until Executive incurs a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, and (b) the effective date of any termination or
resignation of employment (or any similar term) shall be the effective date of Executive’s separation from service. Reimbursement of any expenses provided for in this Agreement shall be made in accordance with the Company’s policies (as
applicable) with respect thereto as in effect from time to time (but in no event later than the end of calendar year following the year such expenses were incurred) and in no event shall (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement
hereunder during a taxable year affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year or (ii) the right to reimbursement be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, if a payment or benefit under this Agreement is due to a “separation from service” for purposes of the rules under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(2) (payments to specified employees upon a
separation from service) and Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” (as determined under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i)), such payment shall, to the extent necessary to comply with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code, be made on the later of (x) the date specified by the foregoing provisions of this Agreement or (y) the date that is six (6) months after the date of Executive’s separation from
service (or, if earlier, the date of Executive’s death). Any installment payments that are delayed pursuant to the provisions of this section shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following
Executive’s separation from service (or, if earlier, upon Executive’s death) and the remaining installment payments shall begin on such date in accordance with the schedule provided in this Agreement. To the extent permitted by
Section 409A, each payment hereunder shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 16 












 7.6 Amendments. No amendment or modification of the terms of this Agreement shall be
valid unless made in writing and signed by both Executive and Employer. 
 7.7 Severability; Reformation. Whenever possible, each
provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under any applicable Law or rule, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired thereby. If any provision of this Agreement is found invalid, illegal or unenforceable because it is too broad in scope, too lengthy in
duration or violates any Law or regulation, it shall be reformed by limiting its scope, limiting its duration or construing it to avoid such violation (as the case may be) while giving the greatest effect to the intent of the parties as is legally
permissible.  
 7.8 No Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced, and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 

7.9 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement is a personal service contract, and shall not be assignable by Executive.
This Agreement shall be assignable by Employer to any successor to the business of Employer, without the written consent of Executive; provided, however, that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the business
assets of Employer and such assignee or transferee expressly assumes all the obligations, duties, and liabilities of Employer set forth in this Agreement. Any purported assignment of this Agreement in violation of this Section 7.9 shall be null
and void. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other Person shall have any right, benefit or obligation hereunder. 

7.10 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which will be an original and
all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and any party hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. A facsimile signature by any party on a counterpart of this Agreement shall be binding and
effective for all purposes. Such party shall subsequently deliver to the other party an original, executed copy of this Agreement; provided, however, that a failure of such party to deliver an original, executed copy shall not invalidate
Executive’s or its signature. 
 7.11 Notices. All notices, instructions and other communications given hereunder or in
connection herewith shall be in writing. Any such notice, instruction or communication shall be sent either (i) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (ii) prepaid via a reputable nationwide
overnight courier service, in each case addressed as follows:

a reputable nationwide overnight courier service. Either party may give any notice, instruction or other communication hereunder using any other means, but no such notice, instruction or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly
delivered unless and until it actually is received by the party for whom it is intended.

7.13 Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
any party hereto may otherwise have.
