 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein and other good and valuable
consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. The parties hereby agree that the consummation of the Mergers and the
other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall not constitute a “change in control” or “change of control” (or similar transaction) of the Company as defined in and for purposes of the Employment Agreement, the
Restricted Stock Agreements or any other agreement between the Company and the Executive and, as a result thereof, the vesting of the Restricted Stock shall not accelerate upon or solely in connection with the Mergers. 

2. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither his appointment as Chief Executive Officer of the Surviving Corporation or the
Surviving Partnership (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) nor any action taken by the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Partnership in connection therewith shall constitute a breach of, or provide the Executive with
“good reason” to terminate his employment or a termination of the Executive’s 







 
employment by the Company, the Surviving Corporation and/or the Surviving Partnership (as applicable) without “cause” as such terms are defined in and/or for purposes of, the Plan, the
Employment Agreement, the Restricted Stock Agreements or any other agreement between the Company and the Executive, and the Executive hereby consents to such appointment and actions. 

3. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Employment Agreement to the contrary, the Executive agrees that the provisions of
Section 7(e) and Exhibit A of the Employment Agreement shall not apply to any payments and/or benefits made to the Executive in connection with the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

5. This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Arizona without regard to the
principles of conflicts of laws thereof. 
 6. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable,
it shall be adjusted rather than voided, to achieve the intent of the parties to the extent possible, and the remainder of the Agreement shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible. 

7. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties hereto agree to accept a signed facsimile copy of this Agreement as a fully binding original.
