1.     Employment Relationship. 


		
	a.
	Compensation. Employee shall be entitled to continued payment of the Base Salary, as that term is defined in the Employment Agreement and Compensation Plan, through the first day of Garden Leave, as that term is defined in Section 1(b), and any commissions earned through July 31, 2019, as commissions are defined in the 2019 Incentive Compensation Plan, the Employment Agreement, and/or the Compensation Plan. Employee agrees that he shall not be eligible for any (i) incentive compensation pursuant to the 2019 Incentive Compensation Plan or the Compensation Plan after July 31, 2019 or (ii) bonuses or accelerators pursuant to the Employment Agreement or the Compensation Plan after July 31, 2019.















		
	b.
	Garden Leave. Contingent upon Employee signing this Agreement and not timely revoking, and subject to Sections 9.2 and 9.2.4 of the Employment Agreement, the Company agrees:




		
	i.
	Beginning on August 2, 2019, Employee shall be placed on paid administrative leave (“Garden Leave”) until the Separation Date, as defined in Section 1(c). During Garden Leave, Employee shall perform such employment duties as may be required by the Company from time to time, which may also include, but not be limited to, altering and/or removing Employee from his current active duties and responsibilities; excluding him from the Company’s workplaces; limiting and/or prohibiting Employee’s contact and communications with the Company’s customers, suppliers, vendors, officers, board members, other employees or representatives; and limiting or terminating Employee’s access to the Company’s computer systems, programs, and email. At all times during Garden Leave, Employee shall make himself available to and shall assist the Company (as the Company may require) in transitioning his role and responsibilities to others and to otherwise answer questions from the Company.


		
	ii.
	During Garden Leave, the Company will continue to pay Employee’s Base Salary (the “Payment”) less applicable withholdings, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, and Employee will continue to be eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans in accordance with their terms. The Company will deposit the Payment into to the bank account where the Company has been transmitting Employee’s pay immediately prior to Garden Leave. It shall be the responsibility of Employee to notify the Company of any changes to Employee’s direct deposit banking institution in accordance with Company policy. Employee will not be eligible for or accrue rights to any commissions, bonuses, and/or accelerators during Garden Leave except as provided in Section 1(a).


		
	iii.
	Employee agrees and acknowledges that, except as provided in Section 2, he shall forfeit all right, title, and interest in any unvested equity, including the equity granted in the Equity Agreements. All vesting of such equity awards shall terminate at the end of the day immediately preceding the first day of Garden Leave. Furthermore, Employee agrees and acknowledges that he shall no longer be eligible to participate in the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). Any amounts contributed by Employee to ESPP during the purchase period that was open immediately prior to the start of Garden Leave will be returned to Employee. Employee understands that no shares will be purchased by the Company on his behalf at the end of the purchase period.


		
	iv.
	While on Garden Leave, Employee must continue to adhere to the Company’s policies and procedures, including without limitation the Insider Trading Policy, and the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement and the CINSA that are designed to survive termination of the employment relationship. The parties acknowledge and agree that all restrictive covenants contained in the Employment Agreement or the CINSA intended by their terms to begin upon termination of employment, shall begin to run on the Separation Date. 


		
	v.
	The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate Employee’s employment during Garden Leave for any reason not prohibited by law and without prior notice. Notwithstanding and subject to Section 2 of this Agreement, Employee shall continue to receive the Payment through July 31, 2020.


		
	vi.
	The parties intend that the exceptions to 29 U.S.C. § 409A for severance pay and the short-term deferral rule apply, provided however that, in the event the Severance Payment must be deferred under § 409A, Section 9.2.2 of the Employment Agreement shall control the timing of the Severance Payment.













		
	c.
	Separation Date. 


		
	i.
	Employee’s employment with the Company and any of its affiliates shall terminate effective the earlier of (1) July 31, 2020 or (2) the date Employee’s employment with the Company terminates (the “Separation Date”). For the purposes of this Agreement, and during Garden Leave, Employee shall be permitted to act in an advisory or consulting role for another company and/or to serve on the board of directors of another company without triggering a termination of employment from the Company so long as such advisory, consulting, or board role: (1) does not violate (a) Sections 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, (b) any of Employee’s restrictive covenants or (c) other duties to the Company imposed by law; (2) does not materially interfere with his ability to perform any of the job duties the Company may require of him during Garden Leave; and (3) requires less than 20 hours per week. 


		
	ii.
	Subject to the reductions provided for in this Section 1(c)(ii), after the Separation Date, Employee shall continue to receive the Payment through July 31, 2020. In the event Employee secures employment or becomes an independent contractor and works 21 or more hours per week, then the Payment made to Employee shall be reduced in accordance with Section 9.2.4 of the Employment Agreement. Furthermore, after the Separation Date, and in accordance with federal law and the applicable benefit plan, the Company shall timely provide Employee with all necessary and required documents and information to allow Employee to elect continuation coverage as provided for in the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”). Should Employee elect and qualify for continuation coverage pursuant to COBRA, the Company shall make an additional payment to Employee of $1,395.64 per month to assist with Employee’s transition to a new benefits provider (the “Benefits Payment”). The Company shall pay the Benefits Payment until the earliest of (1) July 31, 2020, (2) the applicable Company plan terminates or discontinues, or (3) Employee obtains other employment and thereby meets the requirements for ceasing coverage under 29 U.S.C. § 1162(2)(D).


		
	iii.
	Employee shall resign from all positions with the Company, including any of its parent, subsidiary, or affiliate companies, effective as of the date Garden Leave commences.


d.Adequate Consideration. The Parties agree that this Agreement is supported by adequate consideration based on the mutual covenants and promises set forth herein. Moreover, Employee acknowledges that the Severance Payment provided pursuant to this Agreement is provided solely as consideration for the mutual promises set forth in this Agreement, and does not constitute payments or benefits to which Employee would otherwise be entitled under applicable law or Company policies.


e.No Other Payments. Except as provided herein, Employee acknowledges that no other compensation, wages, payment, bonus, accelerator, reimbursement, equity awards, vesting or benefit of any nature whatsoever is due and owing by the Company to Employee. Employee represents that he has previously reported all hours worked for the Company in strict accordance with Company policy and that he is not owed any salary, reimbursement, or compensation for any hours worked. Employee further represents that, as of the Effective Date, he has previously been reimbursed for all expenses and costs for which the company is or may be responsible.


f.Reporting.  Employee acknowledges and agrees that as a public company, the Company, including its parent company, may have certain reporting or disclosure obligations relating to the parties, Employee’s title or status, or the fulfillment of the parties’ respective rights and obligations as provided for in this Agreement or pursuant to Employee’s employment with the Company. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall make whatever report or disclosure it believes is required by law or is reasonably prudent.  Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Company makes no representation or warranty regarding the form, substance, or timing of any such report or disclosure, or the number of reports or disclosures it may decide to make.











2.     Restricted Equity. Contingent upon Employee signing this Agreement and not timely revoking, the Company agrees to permit 171 Restricted Stock Units to vest on August 21, 2019 and to accelerate the vesting of certain awards of the Employee’s Equity according to this section 2:


		
	a.
	On the Effective Date, 65,462 Restricted Common Units - Class B shall vest;


		
	b.
	Subject to Employee’s ongoing obligations under this Agreement, the CINSA, and the Employment Agreement, six (6) months after the Effective Date, 32,731 Restricted Common Units - Class B shall vest; and 


		
	c.
	Subject to Employee’s ongoing obligations under this Agreement, the CINSA, and the Employment Agreement, on July 31, 2020, 32,731 Restricted Common Units - Class B shall vest.


Upon the Effective Date, Employee’s rights to the Equity described in Section 2(a) shall not be restricted except as set forth in the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and according to applicable law and regulations. Employee acknowledges and agrees that, in the event he breaches this Agreement, the CINSA, or the Employment Agreement, he shall forfeit any Equity that has yet to vest in accordance with the timetables set forth in this Section 2. Furthermore, Employee acknowledges and agrees that, except as provided in this Section 2, he shall forfeit all right, title, and interest in any and all unvested equity, including Restricted Common Units, Options, and/or Restricted Stock Units. Except as amended hereby, Employee’s equity awards shall continue to be subject to the Equity Agreements.


3.     Release of Claims by Employee.


a.In exchange for the consideration provided in this Agreement, including without limitation the Severance Payment, Employee, for himself and his heirs, executors, representatives, agents, assigns, and all persons and entities claiming by, through, or under him, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally fully and forever waives,  releases, and discharges the Company, including the Company’s parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, and assigns, and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, and partners, in their corporate and individual capacities (both individually and collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all claims, liabilities, charges, obligations, demands, grievances, lawsuits, causes of action, attorney fees, costs, and liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever, including without limitation claims for contribution, subrogation, or indemnification, whether known or unknown (collectively, “Claims”), which Employee may have or has ever had as of the Effective Date against the Released Parties in any way related to any way related to the Employee’s hire, benefits, employment, termination, or separation from employment with the Company by reason of any actual or alleged act, omission, transaction, practice, conduct, occurrence, or other matter (the “Released Claims”).

This is a continuing obligation that shall survive this Agreement. 


Nothing in this Section 9 shall restrict Employee’s right to file any charge with or cooperate in any investigation conducted by the Agencies, as set forth more fully in Section 6 above, or is intended to preclude or dissuade Employee from engaging in legally protected activities protected by state and federal law, including the National Labor Relations Act or federal securities laws, including the Dodd-Frank Act, to the extent such rights cannot be waived by agreement.

Therefore, if Employee breaches the terms of Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement; Sections 1 or 3 of the 











CINSA and the terms of the Addendum; or Sections 10 or 14 of the Employment Agreement, then Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole discretion, (x) may require that Employee repay to the Company within seven (7) business days some or all of the Payment paid by the Company to Employee under Section 1 above and/or (y) may require that Employee forfeit any Equity that has not yet vested pursuant to Section 2 above.

In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Employee of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Employee hereby consents and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to seek, in addition to other available remedies, a temporary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief against such breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security. Any equitable relief shall be in addition to, not instead of, legal remedies, monetary damages, or other available relief.


12.     Confirmation of Prior Agreements.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Employee understands and agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall alter, limit, or void the respective rights and obligations of the parties under the CINSA; the Equity Agreements (except as amended herein); Sections 10, 13, and 14 of the Employment Agreement; or any other agreement entered into between Employee and the Company prior to the date hereof. Any covenants in those prior agreements that were designed to restrict Employee’s actions during employment and/or Garden Leave or that were intended to survive separation of employment shall continue in full force and effect, including without limitation the non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality provisions of any of those prior agreements.


13.     Not an Admission.  This Agreement is not an admission by any party hereto that either has violated any contract, law, or regulation or that the Company or Employee has discriminated against the other or otherwise infringed on the other’s rights and privileges or done any other wrongful act. Rather, the Parties have entered into this Agreement with the intention to avoid disputes and any attendant inconvenience and expense.


14.     Entire Document.  With the exception of the CINSA, the Equity Agreements (except as amended herein), and those provisions that survive Employee’s termination pursuant to Section 12 above, this Agreement is the entire, integrated agreement between the parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement. No other promises or agreements regarding the subject matter of this Agreement have been made to either Employee or the Company other than those contained in this Agreement. In electing to sign this Agreement, neither the Employee nor the Company has relied on any representation or promise, whether oral or written, not specifically set forth in this Agreement.


15.     No Assignment of Claims.  Employee represents that he has not made, and will not make, any assignment of Claim(s) released by this Agreement and that no other person or entity had or has any interest in any Claim(s) released by Employee under this Agreement. Employee agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all claims, demands, expenses, costs, attorneys’ fees, and causes of action asserted by any person or entity due to a violation of this non-assignment provision.


16.     Miscellaneous.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Utah. Notwithstanding any Utah statutory or case law to the contrary, this Agreement may not be modified except by a document signed by a duly authorized representative of the Company and the Employee, whether or not such claimed modification is supported by separate consideration. Any waiver by any party hereto of any breach of any kind or character whatsoever by any other party, whether such waiver be direct or implied, shall not be construed as a continuing waiver of, or consent to, any subsequent breach of this Agreement on the part of the other party. In addition, no course of dealing between the parties, nor any delay in exercising any rights or remedies hereunder or otherwise, shall operate as a waiver of any of the rights or remedies of the parties. This Agreement shall inure to and bind the heirs, devisees, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors, and assigns, as 











applicable, of the respective parties hereto. The parties agree that any dispute between them, whether arising under this Agreement or relating to the enforceability or interpretation thereof, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts situated in the State of Utah, and each party hereby submits itself to the personal jurisdiction of the courts situated in the State of Utah.


17.     Severability.  The provisions of the Agreement are severable. If any part of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions shall remain fully valid and enforceable. Such a finding shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be binding on the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of Section 3 of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable, then the Company, in its sole discretion, may require that Employee repay to the Company the full amount of the Payment paid by the Company to Employee during Garden Leave, as set forth in Section 1 hereof, to the fullest extent allowed by law.  


18.     Attorneys’ Fees.  If a civil action or other proceeding is brought to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled, whether incurred before or after the filing of a civil action or the entry of judgment.
