(b) You agree to perform the duties of your position and such other duties as may reasonably be assigned to you from time to time. You also

discharge of your duties and responsibilities for them. 
 2. Compensation and Benefits. During your employment, as
compensation for all services performed by you for the Company and its Affiliates and subject to your full performance of your obligations hereunder, the Company will provide you the following pay and benefits:

annual bonus. Your target bonus will be between 25% of your Base Salary and 50% of your Base Salary, with the actual amount of any such bonus being determined by the Board in its discretion, based on your performance and that of the Company against

the applicable plan documents and generally applicable Company policies. 
 (e) Vacations. You will be entitled to earn up to twenty
(20) days of vacation per year, in addition to holidays observed by the Company. Vacation may be taken at such times and intervals as you shall determine, subject to the business needs of the Company. You may carry a maximum of 7 days of unused

3. Confidential Information and Restricted Activities. 

(a) Confidential Information. During the course of your employment with the Company, you will learn of Confidential Information, as
defined below, and you may develop Confidential Information on behalf of the Company and its Affiliates. You agree that you will not use or disclose to any Person (except as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of your regular
duties and responsibilities for the Company) any Confidential Information obtained by you incident to your employment or any other association with the Company or any of its Affiliates. You agree that this restriction shall continue to apply after
your employment terminates, regardless of the reason for such termination. Nothing herein shall be construed to modify in any way your obligation to maintain attorney/client confidences, and the Company does not hereby waive any attorney/client
privilege. 
 (b) Protection of Documents. All documents, records and files, in any media of whatever kind and description, relating
to the business, present or otherwise, of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and any copies, in whole or in part, thereof (the “Documents”), whether or not prepared by you, shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company.
You agree to safeguard all Documents and to surrender to the Company, at the time your employment terminates or at such earlier time or times as the Board or its designee may specify, all Documents then in your possession or control. 

(c) Assignment of Rights to Intellectual Property. You shall promptly and fully disclose all Intellectual Property to the Company. You
hereby assign and agree to assign to the Company (or as otherwise directed by the Company) your full right, title and interest in and to all Intellectual Property. You agree to execute any and all applications for domestic and foreign patents,
copyrights or other proprietary rights and to do such other acts (including without limitation the execution and delivery of instruments of further assurance or confirmation) requested by the Company to assign the Intellectual Property to the
Company and to permit the Company to enforce any patents, copyrights or other proprietary rights to the Intellectual Property. You will not charge the Company for time spent in complying with these obligations. All copyrightable works that you
create during your employment shall be considered “work made for hire” and shall, upon creation, be owned exclusively by the Company. 

(d) Restricted Activities. You agree that the following restrictions on your activities during and after your employment are necessary
to protect the good will, Confidential Information, trade secrets and other legitimate interests of the Company and its Affiliates: 
 (i)
While you are employed by the Company and during the two (2) year period immediately following termination of your employment, regardless of the reason therefor (in the aggregate, the “Restricted Period”), you shall not, except
as it constitutes the practice of law, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, partner, investor, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or otherwise, compete with the Company or any of its Affiliates in any geographic area in which the Company
does business or undertake any planning for any business competitive with the Company or any of its Affiliates. Specifically, but without limiting the foregoing, you agree not to work or provide services, in any capacity other than the practice of
law, whether as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise, whether with or without compensation, to any Person that is engaged in any business that is competitive with the business of the Company or its Affiliates, as conducted or in planning
during your employment with the Company.

(ii) During the Restricted Period, you will not directly or indirectly (a) solicit or encourage any customer of the Company or any of its
Affiliates to terminate or diminish its relationship with them; or (b) seek to persuade any such customer or prospective customer of the Company or any of its Affiliates to conduct with anyone else any business or activity which such customer
or prospective customer conducts or could conduct with the Company or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that these restrictions shall apply (y) only with respect to those Persons who are or have been a customer of the Company or any of
its Affiliates at any time within the immediately preceding two year period or whose business has been solicited on behalf of the Company or any of the Affiliates by any of their officers, employees or agents within said two year period, other than
by form letter, blanket mailing or published advertisement, and (z) only if you have performed work for such Person during your employment with the Company or one of its Affiliates or been introduced to, or otherwise had contact with, such
Person as a result of your employment or other associations with the Company or one of its Affiliates or has had access to Confidential Information which would assist in your solicitation of such Person. 

(iii) During the Restricted Period, you will not, and will not assist any other Person to, (a) hire or solicit for hiring any employee of
the Company or any of its Affiliates or seek to persuade any employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates to discontinue employment or (b) solicit or encourage any independent contractor providing services to the Company or any of its
Affiliates to terminate or diminish its relationship with them. For the purposes of this Agreement, an “employee” or an “independent contractor” of the Company or any of its Affiliates is any person who was such at
any time within the preceding two years. 
 (e) In signing this Agreement, you give the Company assurance that you have carefully read and
considered all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed on you under this Section 3. You agree without reservation that these restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company
and its Affiliates, and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area. You further agree that, were you to breach any of the covenants contained in this Section 3, the
damage to the Company and its Affiliates would be irreparable. You therefore agree that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach or threatened
breach by you of any of those covenants, without having to post bond together with an award of its reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in enforcing its rights hereunder. So that the Company may enjoy the full benefit of the covenants contained
in this Section 3, you further agree that the Restricted Period shall be tolled, and shall not run, during the period of any breach by you of any of the covenants contained in this Section 3. You and the Company further agree that, in the
event that any provision of this Section 3 is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great a time, too large a

geographic area or too great a range of activities, that provision shall be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. It is also agreed that each of
the Company’s Affiliates shall have the right to enforce all of your obligations to that Affiliate under this Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to this Section 3. Finally, no claimed breach of this Agreement or other
violation of law attributed to the Company shall operate to excuse you from the performance of your obligations under this Section 3. 

4. Termination of Employment. Your employment under this Agreement shall continue until terminated pursuant to this
Section 4. 
 (a) By the Company For Cause. The Company may terminate your employment for Cause upon notice to you setting forth
in reasonable detail the nature of the cause. The following, as determined by the Board in its reasonable judgment, shall constitute Cause for termination: 

(i) your substantial failure to perform (other than by reason of disability), or gross negligence in the performance of, your duties and
responsibilities to the Company or any of its Affiliates, which failure or neglect, if susceptible of cure, remains uncured or continues or recurs more than 10 business days after delivery of written notice from the Company setting out the nature of
such failure or neglect; 
 (ii) your material breach of this Agreement or any other agreement between you and the Company or any of its
Affiliates, where such breach, if susceptible of cure, remains uncured or continues or recurs more than 10 business days after delivery of written notice from the Company setting out the nature of such failure or negligence or recurs after once
being cured; or 
 (iii) your commission of a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude; 

(iv) other conduct by you that is or could reasonably be expected to be harmful to the business interests or reputation of the Company or any
of its Affiliates. 
 (b) By the Company Without Cause. The Company may terminate your employment at any time other than for Cause
upon notice to you. 
 (c) Resignation by You for Good Reason. You may terminate your employment hereunder for Good Reason by
(i) providing notice to the Company specifying in reasonable detail the condition giving rise to the Good Reason no later than the 30th day following the occurrence of that condition; (ii) providing the Company a period of 30 days to
remedy the condition and so specifying in the notice; and (iii) terminating your employment within 30 days following the expiration of the period to remedy if the Company fails to remedy the condition. The following, if occurring without your
consent, shall constitute “Good Reason” for termination of your employment by you:

(i) material diminution in the nature or scope of the Executive’s duties, authority and/or responsibilities that, taken as a whole,
effectively constitutes a demotion; provided, however, that the Company’s failure to continue the Executive’s appointment or election as a director or officer of any of its Affiliates shall not constitute Good Reason; or 

(ii) a material reduction in Base Salary. 

(d) Resignation by You Without Good Reason. You may terminate your employment at any time upon 60 days’ notice to the Company. The
Board may elect to waive such notice period or any portion thereof; but in that event, the Company shall pay you your Base Salary for that portion of the notice period so waived. 

(e) Death and Disability. Your employment hereunder shall automatically terminate in the event of your death during employment. In the
event you become disabled during employment and, as a result, are unable to continue to perform substantially all of your duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, either with or without reasonable accommodation, the Company will continue to
pay you your Base Salary and to provide you benefits in accordance with Section 2(d) above, to the extent permitted by plan terms, for up to twelve (12) weeks of disability during any period of three hundred and sixty-five
(365) consecutive calendar days; provided, that any Base Salary payable during such period shall be reduced by the amount of any benefits payable to you during such period under any disability benefit plan of the Company. If you are unable to
return to work after twelve (12) weeks of disability, the Company may terminate your employment, upon notice to you. If any question shall arise as to whether you are disabled to the extent that you are unable to perform substantially all of
your duties and responsibilities for the Company and its Affiliates, you shall, at the Company’s request, submit to a medical examination by a physician selected by the Company to whom you or your guardian, if any, has no reasonable objection
to determine whether you are so disabled, and such determination shall for purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of the issue. If such a question arises and you fail to submit to the requested medical examination, the Company’s determination
of the issue shall be binding on you. 
 5. Other Matters Related to Termination. 

(a) Final Compensation. In the event of termination of your employment with the Company, howsoever occurring, the Company shall pay you
(i) your Base Salary for the final payroll period of your employment, through the date your employment terminates; (ii) compensation at the rate of your Base Salary for any vacation time earned but not used as of the date your employment
terminates; (iii) any bonus awarded but not yet paid for the bonus year preceding the year in which termination occurs; and (iv) reimbursement for business expenses incurred by you but not yet paid to you as of the date your employment
terminates; provided you submit all expenses and supporting documentation required within 60 days of the date your employment terminates, and provided further that such expenses are reimburseable under Company policies as then in effect (all of the
foregoing, “Final Compensation”). 
 (b) Severance Payments. In the event of your Separation from Service in
connection with any termination of your employment pursuant to Section 4(b) or Section 4(c) above, in addition to Final Compensation, for a period of between 1 and 6 months (to be determined at the time of such Separation From Service by
good-faith negotiation between the

parties with reference to severance amounts typically paid to similarly-situated executives in businesses of similar size) following the date of termination, the Company will pay you
(i) your Base Salary plus (ii) an amount equal to the Company’s monthly share of the premium payments for your participation in the group health insurance plans of the Company as of immediately prior to the date of termination (the
“Severance Payments”). 
 (c) Conditions To And Timing Of Severance Payments. Any obligation of the Company to
provide you the Severance Payments is conditioned, however, on your signing and returning to the Company a timely and effective separation agreement containing a release of claims and other customary terms in the form provided to you by the Company
at the time your employment is terminated (the “Separation Agreement”). The Separation Agreement must become effective, if at all, by the 60th calendar day following the date your employment is terminated. Any Severance Payments to
which you are entitled will be provided in the form of salary continuation, payable in accordance with the normal payroll practices of the Company. The first payment will be made on the Company’s next regular pay-day following the expiration of
60 calendar days from the date of termination; but that first payment shall be retroactive to the date of termination. 
 (d) Benefits
Termination. Except for any right you may have under the federal law known as “COBRA” to continue participation in the Company’s group health and dental plans at your cost, your participation in all employee benefit plans shall
terminate in accordance with the terms of the applicable benefit plans based on the date of termination of your employment, without regard to any payment of Severance Payments or other payment to you following termination and you shall not be
eligible to earn vacation or other paid time off following the termination of your employment. 
 (e) Survival. Provisions of this
Agreement shall survive any termination of employment if so provided in this Agreement or if necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of other surviving provisions, including without limitation your obligations under Section 3 of this
Agreement. The obligation of the Company to make payments to you under Section 5(b) is expressly conditioned upon your continued full performance of your obligations under Section 3 hereof. Upon termination by either you or the Company,
all rights, duties and obligations of you and the Company to each other shall cease, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement. 

6. Timing of Payments and Section 409A. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at the time your employment terminates, the Executive is a “specified
employee,” as defined below, any and all amounts payable under this Agreement on account of such separation from service that would (but for this provision) be payable within 6 months following the date of termination, shall instead be paid on
the next business day following the expiration of such 6 month period or, if earlier, upon the Executive’s death; except (A) to the extent of amounts that do not constitute a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Treasury
regulation Section 1.409A-1(b) (including without limitation by reason of the safe harbor set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii),

as determined by the Company in its reasonable good faith discretion); (B) benefits which qualify as excepted welfare benefits pursuant to Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5); or
(C) other amounts or benefits that are not subject to the requirements of Section 409A. 
 (b) For purposes of this Agreement, all
references to “termination of employment” and correlative phrases shall be construed to require a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury regulations after giving effect to the
presumptions contained therein), and the term “specified employee” means an individual determined by the Company to be a specified employee under Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-1(i). 

(c) Each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this
Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. 
 (d) Your right to in-kind payment or reimbursement for business
expenses hereunder shall be subject to the following additional rules: (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during any calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year,
(ii) reimbursement shall be made not later than December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred, and (iii) the right to in-kind payment or reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or
exchange for any other benefit.
