Executive elects to continue coverage. 
 2. Release of Claims. Except as set forth in this Agreement, Executive, on his

or in any manner to institute, prosecute, or pursue, any claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, demand, or cause of action relating to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Executive may
possess against any of the Releasees arising from any omissions, acts, facts, or damages that have occurred up until and including the Effective Date of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

relationship; 
 (b) any and all claims relating to, or arising from, Executive’s right to purchase, or actual purchase of

 2 









 (g) any claim for any loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of any dispute over the
nonwithholding or other tax treatment of any of the consideration the Parties negotiated in this Agreement; and 
 (h) any and
all claims for attorneys’ fees and costs. 
 Executive agrees that the release set forth in this section shall be a complete and general
release as to the matters released. Notwithstanding any other term in this Agreement, this release does not extend to any obligations incurred under this Agreement. This release does not release claims that cannot be released as a matter of law,
including Executive’s right to file a charge with, or participate in a charge by, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any other local, state, or federal administrative body or government agency that is authorized to enforce or
administer laws (related to employment) against the Company (with the understanding that any such filing or participation does not give Executive the right to recover any monetary damages against the Company, as Executive’s release of claims
herein bars Executive from recovering such monetary relief from the Company). Executive does not release Executive’s right to receive payment for commissions, if any, that Executive has earned but that have not yet become payable in accordance
with the terms of Executive’s sales compensation plan 
 Notwithstanding any other term in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement waives
or releases Executive’s rights (i) to indemnification to the fullest extent provided by or in any corporate document or act or agreement of the Company or state or federal law or insurance policy, including without limitation, the
Indemnity Agreement and the Company’s directors and officers insurance policies, (ii) to any defense or payment under any insurance policy or otherwise, (iii) to Executive’s accrued vacation and salary, (iv) to continuing
coverage under any Company employee welfare benefit plan and in any accrued payment right under any Company employee welfare benefit plan to the extent provided under Section 1(c) of this Agreement and otherwise permitted by applicable law (by
way of examples only, rights to continued medical coverage and to reimbursement for a claim existing as of the date hereof), (v) to reimbursement for all expenses incurred in the course and scope of Executive’s employment, (vi) in and
to any accrued amount under any employee pension benefit plan of the Company (by way of example only, vested amounts under Executive’s account in the Company’s 401(k) plan), or (vii) Executive’s rights in all outstanding equity
awards and Shares resulting therefrom, which shall continue to be governed solely by the terms and conditions of the applicable stock plan and equity agreement governing each such outstanding equity awards; or (viii) Executive’s right to
hold and sell equity Executive purchased on the open markets. 
 3. Equity Awards. Executive will have vested in the Shares and
restricted stock unit awards covering Shares, subject to each outstanding equity award (as set forth in Exhibit B), which reflects the Company’s good faith determination of granted and vested shares, but which number(s) shall in
all instances be governed by the terms of the awards and applicable equity plan), through and including the Separation Date, and no more. Any equity awards that are unvested on the Separation Date will be forfeited permanently on that date and
never will become vested. In all other respects, the exercise of Executive’s vested options and Shares shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement and the applicable Company’s equity plan
under which the award was granted. 
 4. California Civil Code Section 1542; Release of Unknown Claims. Executive acknowledges that
Executive has read section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which states in full: 
 A general release does not
extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor. 

  
 3 









 Executive waives any right which Executive has or may have under section 1542 or any other similar state law
(in Connecticut or elsewhere) to the full extent that Executive may lawfully waive such rights pertaining to this general release of claims. Executive acknowledges that Executive may in the future discover facts different from, or in addition to,
those which the Executive now knows or believes to be true regarding the claims released by this Agreement, and agrees that this Agreement, and the releases contained in it, shall be fully effective in all respects despite the potential discovery of
such different or additional facts 
 5. Tax Consequences. The Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the tax
consequences of the payments provided to Executive or made on his behalf under the terms of this Agreement. Executive agrees and understands that he is responsible for payment, if any, of personal local, personal state, and/or personal federal taxes
on the payments and any other consideration provided hereunder by the Company and any penalties or assessments thereon. Executive further agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any claims, demands, deficiencies, penalties, interest,
assessments, executions, judgments, or recoveries by any government agency against the Company for any amounts claimed due on account of (a) Executive’s failure to pay or Executive’s delayed payment of Executive’s personal
federal or personal state taxes, or (b) damages sustained by the Company by reason of any claims, specifically set forth in (a) above, including attorneys’ fees and costs. The foregoing payments set forth in Section 1(a) –
(b) of this Agreement are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) and the benefits set
forth in Section 1(c) of this Agreement are intended to be exempt from Section 409A, in each case, so that none of the payments and benefits to be provided hereunder shall be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A,
and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted to so comply or be so exempt. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment under Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 1(a) and (b), if Executive dies following the Separation Date but before the date this payment otherwise will be made under Sections 1(a) and 1(b), such payments instead will be made as soon as
administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death, subject to this Agreement being effective, the Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable
actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A prior to actual payment to Executive. In no event will the Company reimburse Executive for any tax
obligations arising under Section 409A. 
 6. Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA. This Agreement is intended to satisfy
the requirements of the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act, 29 U.S.C. sec. 626(f). Executive, by this Agreement, is advised to consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement. 

Executive acknowledges and agrees that (a) Executive has read and understands the terms of this Agreement; (b) Executive has
been advised in writing to consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement; (c) that Executive has obtained and considered such legal counsel as Executive deems necessary; (d) that Executive has been given up to forty-five
(45) days to consider whether or not to enter into this Agreement (although Executive may elect not to use the full 45-day period at Executive’s option); (e) as set forth in Exhibit C
herein, he has been advised in writing by the Company of the class, unit, or group of individuals covered by the reduction in force, the eligibility factors for the reduction in force, and the job titles and ages of all individuals who were and were
not selected; and (e) that by signing this Agreement, Executive acknowledges that Executive does so freely, knowingly, and voluntarily. The Parties agree that changes, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the 45-day
consideration period.

 7. Revocation of Agreement. This Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the eighth

Executive’s acceptance of this Agreement shall become binding and enforceable on Effective Date. 
 This Agreement does not
waive or release any rights or claims that Executive may have that arise after the Effective Date of this Agreement. In addition, this Agreement does not prohibit Executive from challenging the validity of this Agreement’s waiver and release of
claims under the ADEA. 
 8. Trade Secrets and Confidential Information/Company Property. Executive acknowledges and agrees that
Executive shall continue to be bound by and comply with the terms of any proprietary rights, assignment of inventions and/or confidentiality agreements between the Company and Executive, including the Confidentiality Agreement. On or before the
Effective Date, Executive will return to the Company, in good working condition, all Company property and equipment that is in Executive’s possession or control, including, but not limited to, any files, records, computers, computer equipment,
cell phones, credit cards, keys, programs, manuals, business plans, financial records, and all documents (and any copies thereof) that Executive prepared or received in the course of his employment with the Company. 

9. Non disparagement. Executive agrees to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel, or slander of any of the Releasees, and agrees to
refrain from any tortious interference with the contracts and relationships of any of the Releasees. 
 10. Non-Solicitation. Executive
agrees that for a period of one (1) year following the Separation Date, Executive will not, on behalf of Executive or any other person or entity, directly or indirectly solicit (or encourage another person or entity to directly or indirectly
solicit) any employee of the Company to terminate that employee’s employment with the Company. This paragraph shall replace Section 15 of the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 11. Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of any legal action relating to or arising out of this Agreement (or the enforcement thereof), the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the
losing party its attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in that action, except the obligations in this paragraph do not apply to claims challenging the validity of this Agreement under the ADEA. 

12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed under the law of the State of California, without regard for choice-of-law
provisions. Subject to and consistent with Paragraph 13 (“Arbitration”) below, the Parties agree that any legal proceeding or dispute relating to, or arising under, this Agreement shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located
the State of California, and the Parties hereby consent to personal and exclusive jurisdiction in said courts. Executive and the Company understand and acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of disputed claims. No
action taken by the parties hereto, or either of them, either previously or in connection with this Agreement, shall be deemed or construed to be (a) an admission of truth or falsity of any claims heretofore made or (b) an acknowledgement
or admission by either Party of any fault or liability whatsoever to the other party or to any third party. 

  
 5 









 13. Arbitration. All disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be decided
exclusively by binding arbitration before one neutral JAMS arbitrator. The arbitration shall be submitted to JAMS, governed by the then applicable JAMS rules covering employment arbitrations, and held in San Francisco, California. The arbitrator
shall administer and conduct any arbitration in accordance with California law, including the California Code of Civil Procedure, and the arbitrator shall apply substantive and procedural California law to any dispute or claim, without reference to
any conflict-of-law provisions of any jurisdiction. To the extent that the JAMS rules conflict with California law, California law shall take precedence. The arbitrator shall be a retired state or federal judge and shall render a reasoned decision.
The Parties to the arbitration shall each pay an equal share of the costs and expenses of such arbitration, and each party shall separately pay for its respective counsel fees and expenses; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall award
attorneys’ fees and costs to the prevailing party, except as prohibited by law. The arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties understand that by agreeing to arbitrate, they are giving up their
right to trial by jury and their right to use the judicial system to resolve disputes between them. Notwithstanding any other term in this Agreement, either Party may seek extraordinary and/or emergency relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.

 14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement (except as provided herein), and each equity agreement represent
the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and Executive concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Executive’s employment with and separation from the Company and the events leading thereto and associated therewith,
and supersede and replace any and all prior agreements and understandings concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Executive’s relationship with the Company, including, but not limited to, Executive’s Change of Control and
Retention Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, upon this Agreement becoming effective, Executive shall no longer be entitled to the payments or benefits under his Change of Control and Retention Agreement. 

15. Voluntary Execution of Agreement. This Agreement is executed voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence on the part or behalf of
the Parties hereto, with the full intent of releasing the claims released by this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that: (a) They have read this Agreement; (b) They have had the opportunity of being represented in the preparation,
negotiation, and execution of this Agreement by legal counsel of their own choice; (c) They understand the terms and consequences of this Agreement and of the releases it contains; and (d) They are fully aware of the legal and binding
effect of this Agreement.
