thereafter, disclose any Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, to any person or entity for any reason or purpose whatsoever, nor shall the Executive use it in any way, except in the course of the Executive’s employment with, and for
the benefit of, the Protected Parties or to enforce any rights or defend any claims hereunder or under any other agreement to which the Executive is a party, provided that such disclosure is relevant to the enforcement of such rights or defense of
such claims and is only disclosed in the formal proceedings related thereto. The Executive shall take all reasonable steps to safeguard the Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. The
Executive understands and agrees that the Executive shall acquire no rights to any such Confidential Information.

employee of The Traxis Group B.V. or any of its subsidiaries or any person who was an employee of The Traxis Group B.V. or any of its subsidiaries during the twelve (12) month period
immediately prior to the date the Executive’s employment terminates to terminate such employee’s employment relationship with the Protected Parties.

person, firm, corporation or business organization), or otherwise assist any person or entity that engages in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture or enterprise which engages or proposes to engage in any business conducted
by The Traxis Group B.V. or any of its subsidiaries on the date of the Executive’s termination of employment or within twelve (12) months of the Executive’s termination of employment in the United States (the “Business”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Executive from owning for passive investment purposes not intended to circumvent this Agreement, less than five percent (5%) of the publicly traded common equity
securities of any company engaged in the Business (so long as the Executive has no power to manage, operate, advise, consult with or control the competing enterprise and no power, alone or in conjunction with other affiliated parties, to select a
director, manager, general partner, or similar governing official of the competing enterprise other than in connection with the normal and customary voting powers afforded the Executive in connection with any permissible equity ownership). 

6.4 Property. The Executive acknowledges that all originals and copies of materials, records and documents generated by him or coming
into his possession during his employment by the Company or its subsidiaries or, if applicable, the affiliates of the Company and their subsidiaries are the sole property of the Company and its subsidiaries or, if applicable, the affiliates of the
Company and their subsidiaries (“Company Property”). During the Term, and at all times thereafter, the Executive shall not remove, or cause to be removed, from the premises of the Company or its subsidiaries or, if applicable, the
affiliates of the Company and their subsidiaries, copies of any record, file, memorandum, document, computer related information or equipment, or any other item relating to the Business, except in furtherance of his duties under the Agreement. When
the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates, or upon request of the Company at any time, the Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company all copies of Company Property in his possession or control. 

6.5 Subsequent Employment. For a period of twenty-four (24) months following the termination of the Executive’s employment
for any reason, should the Executive enter into any employment relationship, Executive shall provide the Company prompt written notice. Such notice shall include all relevant details of such employment relationship (subject to any confidentiality
restrictions). 
 7. Remedies; Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Executive’s breach or threatened
breach of any of the restrictions set forth in Section 5.4 and 

  
 -7- 








 
Section 6 will result in irreparable and continuing damage to the Protected Parties for which there may be no adequate remedy at law and that the Protected Parties shall be entitled to
equitable relief, including specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for any such breach or threatened or attempted breach. The Executive hereby consents to the grant of an injunction (temporary or otherwise) against the Executive or
the entry of any other court order against the Executive prohibiting and enjoining him from violating, or directing him to comply with any provision of Section 5.4 and Section 6. The Executive also agrees that such remedies shall be in
addition to any and all remedies, including damages, available to the Protected Parties against him for such breaches or threatened or attempted breaches. In addition, without limiting the Protected Parties’ remedies for any breach of any
restriction on the Executive set forth in Section 5.4 and Section 6, except as required by law, the Executive shall not be entitled to any payments set forth in Section 5.2 hereof if the Executive has breached the covenants applicable
to the Executive contained in Section 5.4 or Section 6, the Executive will immediately return to the Protected Parties any such payments previously received under Section 5.2 upon such a breach, and, in the event of such breach, the

any indemnified Claim, whether or not resulting in any liability, to which Executive may become subject or liable or which may be incurred by or assessed against Executive, relating to or arising out of his employment by the Company or the services
to be performed pursuant to this Agreement, provided that the Company shall only defend, but not indemnify or hold Executive harmless, from and against an indemnified Claim in the event there is a final, non-appealable, determination that
Executive’s liability with respect to such indemnified Claim resulted from Executive’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Company’s obligations under this section shall be in addition to any other right, remedy or
indemnification which Executive may have or be entitled to at common law or otherwise.
