			EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
		

		
			THIS EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 8th day of November, 2017 by and between Immunomedics, Inc., a Delaware corporation having its principal offices in Morris Plains, New Jersey (the “Company”) and Brendan Delaney (the “Executive”).
		

		
			WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ Executive as its Chief Commercial Officer , and Executive desires to serve in such capacity on behalf of the Company, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and
		

		
			WHEREAS, Executive acknowledges that he has had an opportunity to consider this Agreement and to consult with an independent advisor of his choosing with regard to the terms of this Agreement, and enters into this Agreement voluntarily and with a full understanding of its terms.
		

		
			NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
		

		
			1. Employment.
		

		
			1.1 Employment Period. Subject to the provisions for earlier termination provided herein, Executive’s employment hereunder will be for a two (2) year term commencing on November 10, 2017 (the “Start Date”) and ending on November 9, 2019 (the “Initial Employment Period”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one (1) year periods thereafter (each a “Renewal Period” and together with the Initial Employment Period, the “Employment Period”), unless at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial Employment Period or any Renewal Period, one party notifies the other in writing that he/it is exercising the option not to renew the term of this Agreement. The non-renewal of this Agreement in the absence of a successor employment agreement shall be deemed a termination of Executive’s employment, effective as of the last day of the then-current Employment Period.
		

		
			1.2 Position and Responsibilities. Commencing on the Start Date, Executive shall become employed by the Company as Chief Commercial Officer (“CCO”) reporting to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) with such duties and responsibilities as may be reasonably assigned to Executive by the CEO or his designee and/or the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). No public release, statement or communication concerning Executive’s employment with the Company shall be made by Executive without the prior approval of the Board.
		

		
			1.3 Extent of Services. Executive shall use his best efforts to carry out Executive’s duties and responsibilities under Section 1.2 hereof and, consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement, shall devote substantially all of Executive’s business time, attention and energy thereto. In the performance of his duties, Executive shall observe and adhere to all applicable Company policies and procedures as may be interpreted, adopted, revised or deleted from time to time in the Company’s sole discretion. Except with the prior written consent of the Board, Executive shall not, during the Employment Period, undertake or engage in any other employment, occupation or business enterprise that would interfere with Executive’s responsibilities and the performance of 


		 


		

			1

		





 


Executive’s duties hereunder, except for (a) reasonable time devoted to volunteer services for or on behalf of such religious, educational, non-profit and/or other charitable organization as Executive may wish to serve, (b) reasonable time devoted to activities in the non-profit and business communities consistent with Executive’s duties, and (c) such other activities as may be specifically approved by the Company. The foregoing shall not be construed as preventing Executive from owning less than one percent (1%) of the total outstanding shares of a publicly traded company.
		

		
			1.4 Principal Location of Services. Executive shall perform his duties hereunder principally out of the Company’s corporate headquarters (presently located in Morris Plains, New Jersey) and shall undertake such travel within or outside of the United States as is necessary or advisable for the efficient operations of the Company.
		

		
			2. Compensation and Benefits.
		

		
			2.1 Base Salary. For all the services rendered by Executive hereunder, the Company shall pay Executive a base salary (“Base Salary”) at the annual rate of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00), subject to all required withholdings and authorized deductions and payable bi-weekly in installments at such times as the Company customarily pays its other senior-level executives.
		

		
			2.2 Annual Discretionary Cash Bonus. For each fiscal year during the Employment Period, commencing with the July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018 fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) for the services rendered by Executive under this Agreement. The amount of the Annual Bonus, if any, will be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) in its discretion, based on Executive’s individual performance and Company performance, in each case measured against performance goals and targets established by the Company. Executive’s Annual Bonus target is forty-five percent (45%) of Executive’s Base Salary for the applicable fiscal year (the “Target Bonus”). The amount of the Annual Bonus, if any, will be determined as of the end of each fiscal year during the Employment Period and shall be paid as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each fiscal year to which the bonus relates, but in no event later than 2-1⁄2 months after the end of such fiscal year. To be eligible to receive an Annual Bonus, or any portion thereof, Executive must be employed by the Company both at the time the amount of the Annual Bonus, if any, is determined, and at the time the Annual Bonus, if any, is paid. Any bonus for the first year of employment will be prorated based on the number of days that Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which Executive commences employment with the Company.
		

		
			2.3 Equity Compensation. Subject to approval of the Board, the Company will grant to Executive as of the Start Date, an option to purchase One Hundred and Fifty Thousand (150,000) shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option”) pursuant and subject to the Immunomedics, Inc. 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the stock option agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Option shall be an incentive stock option to the extent permissible under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and will have an exercise price per share equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of a share of common stock of the Company as of the date of grant pursuant to the terms of the Plan. The Option shall vest and become exercisable as follows: upon the one-year anniversary of the Start Date, twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of shares underlying the Option shall vest and become exercisable, and one additional forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total number of shares underlying the Option shall vest and become exercisable on the corresponding day of each month thereafter, until the entire Option has 


		 


		

			2

		





 


vested and become exercisable on the fourth anniversary of the Start Date, in each case subject to Executive’s continued employment on each such vesting date. Upon termination of Executive’s employment, the vested portion of the Option shall remain exercisable in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable option agreement and this Agreement.
		

		
			2.4 Retirement and Welfare Plans. Executive shall be eligible to participate in employee retirement and welfare benefit plans made available to the Company’s senior-level executives as a group or to its employees generally, as such retirement and welfare plans may be in effect from time to time and subject to the eligibility requirements of the plans. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Company from amending or terminating any retirement, welfare or other employee benefit plans or programs from time to time as the Company deems appropriate.
		

		
			2.5 Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks of annual paid vacation, which shall be subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the Company’s paid time off policies, as may be in effect from time to time.
		

		
			2.6 Reimbursement of Expenses. Executive shall be reimbursed for all customary and appropriate business-related expenses actually incurred and documented in accordance with the Company’s policies applicable to senior-level executives.
		

		
			3. Termination. Notwithstanding Section 1, Executive’s employment shall terminate, and the Employment Period shall terminate concurrently therewith, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
		

		
			3.1 [Intentionally omitted.]
		

		
			3.2 Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason Before a Change of Control.

not revoke a written release in a form provided by the Company releasing the Company from any and all claims with respect to all matters arising out of or related to Executive’s employment by the Company or the termination thereof (the “Release”), (ii) complies with the terms and conditions of the Release, including, without limitation, any return of property, non-disparagement, and confidentiality provisions contained therein, and (iii) complies with the terms and conditions of Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 below, Executive will be entitled to receive the benefits described below (collectively, the “Severance”):

Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the timing of Executive’s execution of the Release, directly or indirectly, result in Executive’s designating the calendar year of payment, and if a payment that is “nonqualified deferred compensation” as defined under Section 409A 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) Executive agrees and acknowledges that the Change of Control Severance provided to Executive pursuant to Section 3.3(c) is in lieu of, and not in addition to, any benefits to which Executive may otherwise be entitled under any Company severance plan, policy, or program, other than the Guaranteed Payments.

			4. Non-Exclusivity of Rights.

			5. Confidentiality. Executive agrees that Executive’s services to the Company are of a special, unique and extraordinary character, and that Executive’s position places Executive in a position of confidence and trust with the Company’s employees, customers, vendors, suppliers and/or business partners. Executive also recognizes that Executive’s position with the Company will give Executive substantial access to Confidential Information (as defined below), the disclosure of which to competitors of the Company would cause the Company to suffer substantial and irreparable damage. Executive recognizes, therefore, that it is in the Company’s legitimate business interest to restrict Executive’s use of Confidential Information for any purposes other than the discharge of Executive’s employment duties at the Company, and to limit any potential appropriation of Confidential Information by Executive for the benefit of the Company’s competitors and/or to the detriment of the Company. Accordingly, Executive agrees as follows:
		

		
			(a) Executive shall not at any time, whether during or after the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, reveal to any person or entity any of the trade secrets or confidential information of the Company, or the trade secrets or confidential information of any third party which the Company is under an obligation to keep confidential, including but not limited to trade secrets, know-how, or confidential information respecting research, product plans, products, services, software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, characteristics, assays, raw data, scientific pre-clinical or clinical data, records, databases, formulations, clinical protocols, equipment designs, customer or vendor lists, proposals, strategies, market plans, forecasts, financials and other business information (“Confidential Information”), except as may be required in the ordinary course of performing Executive’s duties as an employee of the Company. Executive shall at all times keep secret all Confidential Information entrusted to Executive and shall not use or attempt to use any such Confidential Information for personal gain or 


		 


		

			9

		





 


in any manner that may injure or cause loss, or could reasonably be expected to injure or cause loss, whether directly or indirectly, to the Company.
		

		
			(b) The above restrictions shall not apply to: (i) information that at the time of disclosure is in the public domain through no fault of Executive; (ii) information received from a third party outside of the Company that was disclosed without a breach of any confidentiality obligation; (iii) information approved for release by written authorization of the Company; or (iv) information that may be required by law or an order of any court, agency or proceeding to be disclosed; provided that Executive shall provide the Company prior written notice of any such required disclosure once Executive has knowledge of it and will help the Company to the extent reasonable to obtain an appropriate protective order. Moreover, the foregoing shall not limit Executive’s ability to (i) to discuss the terms of Executive’s employment, wages and working conditions to the extent expressly protected by applicable law, (ii) to report possible violations of federal securities laws to the appropriate government enforcing agency and make such other disclosures that are expressly protected under federal or state “whistleblower” laws, or (iii) to respond to inquiries from, or otherwise cooperate with, any governmental or regulatory investigation.
		

		
			(c) Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment with the Company or any Company Executive shall not take, use or permit to be used any notes, memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data, documentation or other materials of any nature constituting Confidential Information or Developments (as defined below) otherwise than for the benefit of the Company. Executive further agrees that Executive shall not, after the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, use or permit to be used any such notes, memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data, documentation or other materials, it being agreed that all of the foregoing shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company.
		

		
			(d) Executive agrees that upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall not take or retain without written authorization any documents, files or other property of the Company, and Executive will return promptly to the Company any such documents, files or property in Executive’s possession or custody, including any copies thereof maintained in any medium or format. Executive recognizes that all documents, files and property that Executive has received and will receive from the Company, including but not limited to scientific research, customer lists, handbooks, memoranda, product specifications, and other materials (with the exception of documents relating to benefits to which Executive might be entitled following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company), are for the exclusive use of the Company and employees who are discharging their responsibilities on behalf of the Company, and that Executive has no claim or right to the continued use, possession or custody of such documents, files or property following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason.
		

		
			(e) Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive acknowledges that Executive will 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 (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

			(a) If at any time or times during Executive’s employment with the Company Executive shall (either alone or with others) make, conceive, discover or reduce to practice any invention, modification, discovery, design, development, improvement, process, software program, work of authorship, documentation, formula, data, technique, know-how, secret or intellectual property right whatsoever or any interest therein (whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes or subject to analogous protection) (herein called “Developments”) that (i) relates to the business of the Company or any of the products or services being developed, manufactured or sold by the Company or which may be used in relation therewith, (ii) results from tasks assigned to Executive by the Company or (iii) results from the use of premises or personal property (whether tangible or intangible) owned, leased or contracted for by the Company, such Developments and the benefits thereof shall immediately become the sole and absolute property of the Company and its assigns, and Executive shall promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) each such Development, and Executive hereby assigns any rights Executive may have or acquire in the Developments and benefits and/or rights resulting therefrom to the Company and its assigns without further compensation and shall communicate, without cost or delay, and without publishing the same, all available information relating thereto (with all necessary plans and models) to the Company.
		

		
			(b) Upon disclosure of each Development to the Company, Executive will, during Executive’s employment and at any time thereafter, at the request and cost of the Company, sign, execute, make and do all such deeds, documents, acts and things as the Company and its duly authorized agents may reasonably require:
		

		
			(i) to apply for, obtain and vest in the name of the Company alone (unless the Company otherwise directs) letters patent, copyrights or other analogous protection in any country throughout the world and when so obtained or vested to renew and restore the same; and
		

		
			(ii) to defend any opposition proceedings in respect of such applications and any opposition proceedings or petitions or applications for revocation of such letters patent, copyright or other analogous protection.
		

		
			(c) In the event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure Executive’s signature on any letters patent, copyright or other analogous protection relating to a Development, whether because of Executive’s physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason whatsoever, Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive’s agent and attorney-in-fact for the sole purpose of acting for and on Executive’s behalf and in his stead to execute and file any such application or applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent, copyright and other analogous protection thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Executive.
		

		
			7. Non-Competition. During the Employment Period and for a period equal to two (2) months per each completed year of service Executive has with the Company, with a minimum of six (6) months and a maximum of twelve (12) months, after termination of Executive’s employment (for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary) (the “Non-Competition Period”), Executive shall not, without the prior written approval of the Board, whether alone or as a partner, officer, director, 


		 


		

			11

		





 


consultant, agent, employee, representative or stockholder of any company or other commercial enterprise, or in any other capacity, directly or indirectly engage in any business or other activity anywhere in the world that competes with the Company in the field of cancer drugs, cancer biopharmaceuticals, cancer therapeutics or cancer treatments, including but not limited to the research, development, testing, manufacture, sale, marketing, or licensing of same (the “Business”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a termination of Executive’s employment for Cause, the Non-Competition Period for purposes of this Section 7 only shall be for a period of three (3) months after termination. The foregoing prohibition shall not prevent Executive’s employment or engagement after termination of Executive’s employment by any company or business organization, as long as the activities of any such employment or engagement, in any capacity, do not involve work on matters related to the Business. Executive shall be permitted to own securities of a public company not in excess of five percent (5%) of any class of such securities and to own stock, partnership interests or other securities of any entity not in excess of five percent (5%) of any class of such securities and such ownership shall not be considered to be in competition with the Company.
		

		
			8. Non-Solicitation. While Executive is employed by the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination of Executive’s employment, Executive shall not:
		

		
			(a) directly or indirectly solicit, entice or induce, or attempt to solicit, entice or induce, any customer, vendor, supplier, or business development partner to become a customer, vendor, supplier, or business development partner of any other person, firm or corporation with respect to products then sold or under development by the Company or to cease doing business with the Company, and Executive shall not approach any such person, firm or corporation for such purpose or authorize or knowingly approve the taking of such actions by any other person; or
		

		
			(b) directly or indirectly solicit or recruit, or attempt to solicit or recruit, any employee, consultant or independent contractor of the Company to terminate employment or otherwise cease providing services to the Company or to work for a third party other than the Company; and Executive shall not approach any such person for such purpose or authorize or knowingly approve the taking of such actions by any other person.
		

		
			This Section shall not be deemed to preclude Executive from participating in national marketing campaigns that may reach a customer of the Company without specific direct contact.
		

		
			9. General Provisions.
		

		
			(a) For purposes of Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 of this Agreement, the term “Company” shall include the Company’s direct and indirect controlled subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the type and periods of restrictions imposed in Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 of this Agreement are fair and reasonable, and that such restrictions are intended solely to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, including its Confidential Information, goodwill, and business interests, rather than to prevent Executive from earning a livelihood. Executive recognizes that the Company competes worldwide, and that Executive’s access to Confidential Information makes it necessary for the Company to restrict Executive’s post-employment activities in any market in which the Company competes, and in which Executive’s access to Confidential Information and other proprietary information could be used to the detriment of the Company. In the event that any restriction set forth in this Agreement is determined to be overbroad with respect to scope, time or 


		 


		

			12

		





 


geographical coverage, Executive agrees that such a restriction or restrictions should be modified and narrowed, either by a court or by the Company, so as to preserve and protect the legitimate interests of the Company as described in this Agreement, and without negating or impairing any other restrictions or agreements set forth herein.
		

		
			(b) Executive acknowledges and agrees that if Executive should breach any of the covenants, restrictions and agreements contained herein, irreparable loss and injury would result to the Company, monetary relief would not compensate for such breach, and damages arising out of such a breach may be difficult to ascertain. Executive therefore agrees that, in addition to all other remedies provided at law or at equity, the Company shall be entitled to have the covenants, restrictions and agreements contained in Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 specifically enforced (including, without limitation, by temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctions and restraining orders), without the need to post any bond or security, by any state or federal court in the State of New Jersey having equity jurisdiction and Executive agrees to be subject to the jurisdiction of such court.
		

		
			(c) Executive agrees that if the Company fails to take action to remedy any breach by Executive of this Agreement or any portion of the Agreement, such inaction by the Company shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by Executive of the same or any other provision, agreement or covenant.
		

		
			(d) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments and benefits to be provided to Executive under this Agreement are provided as consideration for the covenants in Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 hereof.
		

		
			10. Representations and Warranties. Executive represents and warrants the following to the Company, each of which is a material inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement and a material provision of this Agreement:
		

		
			(a) Other than as previously disclosed in writing or provided to the Company, Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreements, restrictive covenants, non-compete restrictions, non-solicitation restrictions, and/or confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with any other person, business or entity, or any agreement or contract requiring Executive to assign inventions to another party (each, a “Restrictive Agreement”), and Executive has conducted a thorough review of any and all agreements he may have entered into with any current or former employer or any other relevant party to ensure that this representation and warranty is correct.
		

		
			(b) No Restrictive Agreement prohibits, restricts, limits or otherwise affects Executive’s employment with the Company as an executive or ability to perform any of Executive’s duties or responsibilities for the Company as contemplated herein.
		

		
			(c) Executive has not made any material misrepresentation or omission in the course of his communications with the Company regarding the Restrictive Agreements or other obligations to any current or former employer.
		

		
			(d) Executive has not, directly or indirectly, removed, downloaded, or copied any confidential or proprietary information or records of any current or former employer (or their subsidiaries and/or corporate affiliates) without the express written consent of an authorized representative of such entity, and shall not use or possess, as of the date Executive begins employment and during his employment with the Company, any confidential or proprietary 


		 


		

			13

		





 


information or records of any current or former employer (or their subsidiaries and/or corporate affiliates), whether in hard copy or electronic form, including, but not limited to, documents, files, disks, or other materials, all of which Executive is prohibited from using in connection with his employment with the Company.
		

		
			11. Survivorship. The respective rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement, including but not limited to those rights and obligations set forth in Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8, shall survive any termination of this Agreement to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and obligations.
		

		
			12. Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement or necessary or convenient in connection herewith shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when hand-delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, as follows (provided that notice of change of address shall be deemed given only when received):
		

		
			If to the Company, to:
		

		
			Immunomedics, Inc.
300 The American Road
Morris Plains, NJ 07950
Attn: Chief Executive Officer
		

		
			If to Executive, to:

			13. Contents of Agreement, Amendment, Interpretation and Assignment.
		

		
			(a) This Agreement, including the Exhibit attached hereto, sets forth the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings concerning Executive’s employment by the Company and cannot be changed or modified except upon written amendment approved by the Board and executed on its behalf by a duly authorized officer and by Executive.
		

		
			(b) The headings in this Agreement are for convenience only, and both parties agree that they shall not be construed or interpreted to modify or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be interpreted without giving effect to any canons of construction that construe agreements against the draftsperson, each party having been represented in the negotiation, drafting, and execution of this Agreement by independent counsel.
		

		
			(c) All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, except that the duties and responsibilities of Executive under this Agreement are of a personal nature and shall not be assignable or delegatable in whole or in part by Executive. The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the 


		 


		

			14

		





 


business or assets of the Company, within fifteen (15) days of such succession, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner as, and to the same extent that, the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.
		

		
			14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or application thereof to anyone or under any circumstances is adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or application of this Agreement that can be given effect without the invalid or unenforceable provision or application and shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision or application in any other jurisdiction. If any provision is held void, invalid or unenforceable with respect to particular circumstances, it shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect in all other circumstances.
		

		
			15. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver. No remedy conferred upon a party by this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission by a party in exercising any right, remedy or power under this Agreement or existing at law or in equity shall be construed as a waiver thereof, and any such right, remedy or power may be exercised by such party from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient or necessary by such party in its sole discretion.
		

		
			16. Withholding. All payments under this Agreement shall be made subject to applicable tax withholding, and the Company shall withhold from any payments under this Agreement all federal, state and local taxes as the Company is required to withhold pursuant to any law or governmental rule or regulation. Executive shall bear all expense of, and be solely responsible for, all federal, state and local taxes due with respect to any payment received under this Agreement other than such taxes that are, by their nature, obligations of the Company (for example, and without limitation, the employer portion of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) taxes).
		

		
			17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which is an original. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement or any counterpart hereof to produce or account for any of the other counterparts. Facsimile signatures and signatures transmitted by PDF shall be equivalent to original signatures.
		

		
			18. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of New Jersey without giving effect to any conflicts-of-law provisions. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court located in New Jersey or any state court located within such state, in respect of any claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Executive’s employment with the Company, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding in which any such claim is made that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts. Any appellate proceedings shall take place in the appropriate courts having appellate jurisdiction over the courts set forth in this Section.
		

		
			19. Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with or otherwise be exempt from Section 409A and its corresponding regulations, to the extent applicable, and shall be so construed. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A may only be made under this Agreement upon an 


		 


		

			15

		





 


event and in a manner permitted by Section 409A, to the extent applicable. For purposes of Section 409A, all payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A to be made upon the termination of Executive’s employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A. 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. In no event shall Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment with respect to any amount that is “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A. All reimbursements provided under this Agreement that are “nonqualified deferred compensation” that is subject to Section 409A shall be made or provided in accordance with Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirements that (a) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the Employment Period (or during such other time period specified in this Agreement), (b) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (c) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the taxable year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (d) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Nothing herein shall be construed as having modified the time and form of payment of any amounts or payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning Section 409A that were otherwise payable pursuant to the terms of any agreement between Company and Executive in effect prior to the date of this Agreement.
		

		
			20. Section 280G of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement to the contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by the Company or its affiliates to Executive or for Executive’s benefit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (the “Covered Payments”) constitute parachute payments (the “Parachute Payments”) within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, but for this Section 20, would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then prior to making the Covered Payments, a calculation shall be made comparing (i) the Net Benefit (as defined below) to Executive of the Covered Payments after payment of the Excise Tax to (ii) the Net Benefit to Executive if the Covered Payments are limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount under (ii) above will the Covered Payments be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the Covered Payments is subject to the Excise Tax (that amount, the “Reduced Amount”). “Net Benefit” shall mean the present value of the Covered Payments net of all federal, state, local, foreign income, employment and excise taxes.
		

		
			(a) Any such reduction shall be made in accordance with Section 409A and the following:
		

		
			(i) the Covered Payments consisting of cash severance benefits that do not constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be reduced first, in reverse chronological order; and
		

		
			(ii) all other Covered Payments consisting of cash payments, and Covered Payments consisting of accelerated vesting of equity based awards to which Treas. Reg. § 1.280G-1 


		 


		

			16

		





 


Q/A-24(c) does not apply, and that in either case do not constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, shall be reduced second, in reverse chronological order;
		

		
			(iii) all Covered Payments consisting of cash payments that constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be reduced third, in reverse chronological order; and
		

		
			(iv) all Covered Payments consisting of accelerated vesting of equity-based awards to which Treas. Reg. § 1.280G-1 Q/A-24(c) applies shall be the last Covered Payments to be reduced.
		

		
			(b) Any determination required under this Section 20 shall be made in writing in good faith by an independent accounting firm selected by the Company (the “Accountants”). The Company and Executive shall provide the Accountants with such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 20. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations required by this Section 20, the Accountants may rely on reasonable, good-faith assumptions and approximations concerning the application of Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code. The Accountants’ determinations shall be final and binding on the Company and Executive. The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses incurred by the Accountants in connection with the calculations required by this Section 20.
		

		
			(c) It is possible that after the determinations and selections made pursuant to this Section 20 Executive will receive Covered Payments that are in the aggregate more than the amount intended or required to be provided after application of this Section 20 (“Overpayment”) or less than the amount intended or required to be provided after application of this Section 20 (“Underpayment”).
		

		
			(i) In the event that: (A) the Accountants determine, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against either the Company or Executive that the Accountants believe has a high probability of success, that an Overpayment has been made or (B) it is established pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal Revenue Service proceeding that has been finally and conclusively resolved that an Overpayment has been made, then Executive shall pay any such Overpayment to the Company together with interest at the applicable federal rate (as defined in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code) from the date of Executive’s receipt of the Overpayment until the date of repayment.
		

		
			(ii) In the event that: (A) the Accountants, based upon controlling precedent or substantial authority, determine that an Underpayment has occurred or (B) a court of competent jurisdiction determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment will be paid promptly by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive together with interest at the applicable federal rate (as defined in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code) from the date the amount should have otherwise been paid to Executive until the payment date.
