payable hereunder as if such Executive were employed on the relevant payment date hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to receive the retention payments and benefits under this Section 4, Executive must validly execute and not revoke a signed Release to the Company on or within twenty-one (21) days after Executive’s termination of employment and any payments otherwise due prior to the delivery of the Release shall be paid in a lump sum following delivery of the signed Release.
Section 5.    Term; Termination. This Agreement shall become effective on the Signing, which Signing must occur on or before March 1, 2018. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall terminate without any payment due hereunder to Executive if such Change In Control is not consummated on or before December 31, 2019.
Section 6.    Confidentiality.  Executive acknowledges that the continued success of the Company depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information that (i) is related to the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ current or potential business and (ii) is not generally known or publicly available. All of such confidential, proprietary and trade secret information now existing or developed during Executive’s employment with the Company will be referred to as “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the confidential, proprietary and trade secret information, that is obtained by Executive during the course of his or her employment, and that relates to the business and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries, or of customers of the Company, or to any of their development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, confidential employee lists and contact information, compensation and incentive structures and strategies, or to their confidential sales information, including volumes, pricing, and margins, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, products or support. Executive agrees that he or she shall not disclose, at any time (including after his employment ends), to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information is required (or permitted as provided below) to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Confidential Information will not be deemed to include information (i) that is or becomes  available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement by Executive or any other person, (ii) that becomes available to Executive following termination of employment from a third party that has no confidentiality obligation to the Company related to such information, or (iii) that is independently developed by Executive following termination of employment from other sources of available information or Executive’s general knowledge, without reference to or use of the Confidential Information. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Executive shall not have criminal or civil liability under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made (x) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (y) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made 


-3-
    
    


    



in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. In addition, if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to his attorney and may use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Executive (A) files any document containing the trade secret under seal and (B) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Executive has the right under federal law to certain protections for cooperating with or reporting legal violations to the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and/or its Office of the Whistleblower, as well as certain other governmental entities and self-regulatory organizations.  As such, nothing in this Agreement or otherwise is intended to prohibit Executive from disclosing this Agreement to, or from cooperating with or reporting violations to, the SEC or any other such governmental entity or self-regulatory organization, and Executive may do so without notifying the Company.  Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries may retaliate against Executive for any of these activities, and nothing in this Agreement or otherwise requires Executive to waive any monetary award or other payment that Executive might become entitled to from the SEC or any other governmental entity.  Moreover, nothing in this Agreement or otherwise prohibits Executive from notifying the Company that Executive is going to make a report or disclosure to law enforcement.
Section 7.    Contingent Nature Of Cash Bonus Obligations.  The Company shall have no payment obligations under this Agreement, and shall not be required to reserve any funds in relation to this Agreement, unless and until there is a Change In Control that gives rise to such payment obligations.
Section 8.    Limitation on Payments.  In the event that the benefits provided for in this Agreement and otherwise payable to Executive (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), and (ii) but for this Section 6, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then Executive’s benefits under Section 3 or otherwise payable to Executive will be either: (i) delivered in full, or (ii) delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, results in the receipt by Executive on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code.  If a reduction in benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that benefits are delivered to a lesser extent, reduction will occur in the following order: (i) reduction of cash payments; (ii) cancellation of awards granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code), (iii) reduction of employee benefits.
Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 8 will be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants immediately prior to a Change of Control or such other person or entity to which the parties mutually agree (the “Firm”).  For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the 


-4-
    
    


    



Code.  The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section.  The Company will bear all costs the Firm may incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 8.
Section 9.    Effect On Existing Benefits.  The bonuses contemplated hereunder shall be in addition to any other bonuses and benefits that Executive otherwise may be entitled to receive from the Company from time to time.
Section 10.    Legal Expenses.  In the event of a dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement in which Executive prevails, Executive shall be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Executive in connection with such dispute.
Section 11.    Assignment; Successor in Interest.  Unless agreed in writing by Executive, the rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement may not be assigned, other than to a purchaser in a Change In Control or an affiliate of such purchaser. All rights and obligations shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of the Company.  The rights and obligations of Executive hereunder are personal in nature and may not be assigned or delegated.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive or his legal representatives.  If Executive shall die prior to receipt of all amounts due under this Agreement, such amounts shall be payable to Executive’s estate.
Section 12.    Miscellaneous.
a.    The failure of any party to this Agreement at any time or times to require performance of any provision of this Agreement shall in no manner affect the right to enforce the same.  No waiver by any party to this Agreement of any provision (or of a breach of any provision) of this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances shall be deemed or construed either as a further or continuing waiver of any such provision or breach or as a waiver of any other provision (or of a breach of any other provision) of this Agreement.
b.    Wherever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid.  However, if any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality or enforceability of any such provisions in every other respect and of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be impaired.
c.    This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas (without giving effect to any applicable conflict of law provisions).  
d.    The payments due under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the Agreement shall be administered and construed in a manner consistent with that intent.  In no event shall the timing of Executive’s

execution of a release, directly or indirectly, result in Executive designating the calendar year of a Potential Cash Bonus payment, and if a payment that is subject to execution of the release could be made in more than one taxable year, payment shall be made in the later taxable year.  
e.    This Agreement may be executed in counterparts.  Signatures delivered by fax or e-mail shall be as effective, as if they were originals.
