 Mr. David B. Bell 

Employment Agreement 

Dear Dave: 
 Intersil
Corporation (“Intersil” or the “Company”) is pleased to offer you continued employment as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Intersil on the terms set forth below. This agreement (the “Employment Agreement”)
completely supersedes and replaces that certain employment agreement by and between you and Intersil dated March 15, 2008 (the “Prior Agreement”) and is effective as of May 4, 2010 (the “Effective Date”). 

1. Positions; Term. 

(a) You will continue to be employed by Intersil as its President and Chief Executive Officer until May 4, 2013, unless sooner
terminated in accordance with Section 6 hereof (the “Initial Term”). The Initial Term will be automatically extended for successive one year periods beginning May 4, 2013, unless either party gives six (6) months prior
written notice of non-renewal to the other party, or unless your employment is otherwise terminated (the Initial Term and any such extensions being your “Term of Employment”). 

(b) During the Term of Employment, you will have overall responsibility for the management of Intersil’s day-to-day operations and
will report directly to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). During your Term of Employment, you will also be nominated for election to the Board. You will be expected to devote your full working time and attention to the
business of Intersil and its subsidiaries, and you will not render services to any other business without the prior written approval of the Board or, directly or indirectly, engage or participate in any business that is competitive in any manner
with the business of Intersil or its subsidiaries; provided, however, that to the extent such services do not interfere in any material way with your duties or responsibilities to Intersil and its subsidiaries, you may (i) serve on the boards
of directors of non-profit organizations and (ii) with the written consent of the Board, serve on the boards of directors of for-profit entities. You will also be expected to comply with and be bound by Intersil’s operating policies,
procedures and practices that are from time to time in effect during your Term of Employment. Your principal location of employment will be at Intersil’s offices in Milpitas, California. 

2. Base Salary. During the Term of Employment, your initial base salary will be $600,000 per year, payable in accordance with
Intersil’s normal payroll practices with such payroll deductions and withholdings as are required by law. During your Term of Employment, your base salary will be reviewed on an annual basis by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the
“Compensation Committee”) and may be increased from time to time, in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, but in no event shall your base salary be reduced below the initial base salary amount set forth herein. Your base
salary as adjusted shall be referred to herein as your “Base Salary.” 







 3. Bonus. You will be eligible to receive a target annual bonus of up to $660,000, to
be determined on an annual basis by and at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee (the “Target Bonus”). 

4. Equity Compensation. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s equity compensation plans (as may be in effect
from time to time), the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, from time to time, grant you stock options, deferred stock units (“DSUs”), performance-based DSUs under which the ultimate number of DSUs earned depends on a
measure of Company performance established by the Compensation Committee at the time of the initial DSU grant (“PDSUs”) and other equity compensation awards. 

5. Other Benefits. You will be eligible for 4-weeks vacation per year, health insurance, 401(k), employee stock purchase plan,
financial planning, executive physical and other benefits offered to all Intersil senior executives. 
 6. Employment and
Termination. During the Term of Employment, your employment with Intersil may be terminated by you or by Intersil at any time for any reason as follows: 

(a) You may terminate your employment upon written notice to the Board at any time in your discretion without reason (“Voluntary
Termination”); provided that you give Intersil 60 days written notice. The Board in its sole discretion may waive the 60-day notice provision and in such event your Voluntary Termination shall be effective on an earlier date determined by the
Board. 
 (b) You may terminate your employment upon written notice to the Board at any time in your discretion because of
(i) any material and substantial diminution of your duties and authorities (other than a diminution agreed to by you, including under Section 1(b)), (ii) a demotion from the office of Chief Executive Officer and/or President (other
than a change in office or title agreed to by you, including under Section 1(b)), (iii) removal by Intersil from your position as a Director of the Company (other than due to your disability (as defined below) or for a reason that would
constitute a Termination for Cause as set forth below), or (iv) any failure by Intersil to comply with the material terms of this Employment Agreement, which failure is not cured within 30 days from the date you send written notice to Intersil
of such non-compliance (“Involuntary Termination”). 
 (c) Intersil may terminate your employment upon written notice
to you at any time following a determination by the Board that there is “Cause” for such termination (“Termination for Cause”). “Cause” means (i) your conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendre to, a felony
which constitutes a crime involving moral turpitude and results in material harm to Intersil or any of its affiliates; (ii) a judicial determination that you have committed fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement against Intersil or any
affiliate thereof; or (iii) your willful or gross and repeated misconduct in the performance of your duties in each instance so as to cause material harm to Intersil or any of its affiliates and which is not cured within 30 days from the date
Intersil sends you written notice of such willful or gross and repeated misconduct. 
 (d) Intersil may terminate your
employment upon written notice to you at any time in the sole discretion of the Board without a determination that there is Cause for such termination (“Termination without Cause”). 

 


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 (e) Your employment will automatically terminate upon your death and Intersil may terminate
your employment upon written notice to you at any time due to your disability as determined by the Board (“Termination for Death or Disability”); provided that “disability” shall mean that you are unable to engage in any
substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months. 

In no event shall the expiration of the Term of Employment (giving effect to any extensions thereof), by virtue of either party’s having given
notice of non-renewal pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof, constitute Termination without Cause, an Involuntary Termination or Termination for Death or Disability; provided, however, that in the event Intersil gives you written notice of its
intention not to renew the Term of Employment and you remain employed with Intersil through the expiration of the Term of Employment, then, upon your Termination without Cause or Involuntary Termination at the time of the expiration of the Term of
employment or anytime after the expiration of the Term of Employment (a) your unvested options and DSUs (other than your PDSUs) shall fully vest, and (b) your unvested PDSUs shall become fully vested with the number of shares payable to
you under a particular PDSU grant being determined using Intersil’s financial performance relative to its peer group (or such other measure of Company performance that may be specified by the Compensation Committee for a particular PDSU grant)
as measured for the period beginning on January 1 of the calendar year in which such PDSU was granted and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date on which the Termination without Cause or Involuntary
Termination, as the case may be, occurs. 
 If requested by Intersil, you shall resign (in writing) your position as a Director of the Company
and any other positions you hold with the Company or its subsidiaries upon any termination of your employment or expiration of your Term of Employment with Intersil. 

7. Separation Benefits. Upon termination of your employment with Intersil for any reason during the Term of Employment, you will
receive payment for all unpaid salary and vacation accrued to the date of your termination of employment; and your benefits will be continued under Intersil’s then existing benefit plans and policies for so long as provided under the terms of
such plans and policies and as required by applicable law. Subject to your compliance with Sections 9 and 10, under certain circumstances, you will also be entitled to receive severance benefits as set forth below, but you will not be entitled to
any other compensation, award or damages with respect to your employment or termination (except to the extent you are entitled to benefits under your Amended and Restated Executive Change in Control Severance Benefits Agreement with Intersil dated
as of even date herewith, as amended (the “Severance Benefits Agreement”), which benefits shall be in lieu of any benefits provided below, in the event of a Covered Termination (as defined in the Severance Benefits Agreement)). 

(a) In the event of your Voluntary Termination or Termination for Cause during the Term of Employment, you will not be entitled to any
cash severance benefits, additional vesting of shares of restricted stock, DSUs, PDSUs, options or other equity compensation or post-termination death or medical benefits. 

(b) Subject to your compliance with Sections 9 and 10, in the event of your Involuntary Termination or Termination without Cause during
the Term of Employment, you will be: (i) entitled to continuance of your Base Salary for a period of two years (less applicable deductions and withholdings) payable in accordance with Intersil’s normal payroll practices;
(ii)
  


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 
entitled to four payments, each in the amount of fifty-five percent (55%) of your Base Salary, payable within 30 days after each of the first two March 1 and September 1 dates
following your termination of employment, (iii) with respect to your stock options and DSUs (other than PDSUs), entitled to acceleration of vesting in an amount equal to the amount that would have vested over the eighteen (18) month period
commencing on the date of your termination (but in no event shall any such award be less than 50% vested upon an Involuntary Termination or Termination without Cause), such awards being exercisable in accordance with the terms of such grants,
(iv) with respect to PDSUs, entitled to vesting of a pro-rated number of unvested PDSUs with the number of shares payable to you with respect to a particular PDSU grant being determined using Intersil’s financial performance relative to
its peer group (or such other measure of Company performance that may be specified by the Compensation Committee for a particular PDSU grant) as measured for the period beginning January 1 of the calendar year in which such PDSU was granted and
ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date on which your Involuntary Termination or Termination without Cause occurred (prorated based on the number of days that have passed from the date the PDSUs were granted to
you until the date of your Involuntary Termination or Termination without Cause (not to exceed 1095 days) divided by the entire performance period (i.e., 1,095 days for a three-year period)); (v) eligible to convert your and your covered
dependents’ life insurance coverage to individual policies and Intersil shall reimburse you for the applicable premium(s) paid by you with respect to such policies until the earlier of (a) the date on which your Term of Employment ends and
(b) the one year anniversary of your termination date; (vi) if you qualify, eligible to participate, along with your spouse, in the retiree medical plan maintained by Intersil in which employees participate (the “Retiree Medical
Plan”) upon your termination (in accordance with its terms, as may be in effect from time to time) and Intersil will make the full payment of the premiums for coverage of you and your spouse under the Retiree Medical Plan; provided, however,
that if the Retiree Medical Plan is terminated with respect to all other employees of Intersil after your termination of employment hereunder, you shall no longer be provided coverage under the Retiree Medical Plan; and provided, further, however,
that Intersil shall cease paying your or your spouse’s premiums under the Retiree Medical Plan when you or your spouse, as applicable, become eligible for Medicare or become covered under another employer’s medical plan (you agree to
immediately notify Intersil if you or your spouse become eligible for Medicare or covered by another employer’s medical plan; and (vii) eligible to continue, at Intersil’s expense (through reimbursement or otherwise), your medical
benefits providing for coverage or payment in the event of your (or your covered dependents’) illness that were provided to you, whether taxable or non-taxable and whether funded through insurance or otherwise under any benefit plan or program
maintained by Intersil for a period of one (1) year following your termination, if you do not qualify to participate in Intersil’s Retiree Medical Plan. You will not be reimbursed for the income, employment or other taxes incurred by you,
your spouse or any of your covered dependents in connection with any of the benefits described in clauses (v), (vi) or (vii) above. Any payments scheduled to be provided pursuant to this Section 7(b) prior to the
45th day following your Involuntary Termination or
Termination without Cause shall instead be paid in a lump sum on the
45th day following such termination and all payments
scheduled to be made thereafter shall be made as regularly scheduled. 
 (c) Subject to your compliance with
Sections 9 and 10, in the event of your Termination for Death or Disability, you (or your beneficiary, as applicable) will be: (i) entitled to a single lump sum severance payment equal to 12 months of your Base Salary payable on the
45th day following your Termination for Death or
Disability; (ii) entitled to a pro-rata portion 
  


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 
(based on the number of days you were employed by Intersil during the calendar year of your Termination for Death or Disability divided by 365) of a payment of 110% of your Base Salary payable on
the 45th day following your Termination for Death or
Disability; (iii) immediately credited with additional vesting service credit for the twelve-month period commencing on the date of your Termination for Death or Disability with respect to all of your stock options and DSUs (other than PDSUs)
and (iv) with respect to PDSUs, entitled to vesting of a pro-rated number of unvested PDSUs with the number of shares payable to you with respect to a particular PDSU grant being determined using Intersil’s financial performance relative
to its peer group (or such other measure of Company performance that may be specified by the Compensation Committee for a particular PDSU grant) as measured for the period beginning on January 1 of the calendar year in which such PDSU was
granted and ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date on which your Termination for Death or Disability occurred (prorated based on the number of days that have passed from the date the PDSUs were granted to you
until the date of your Termination for Death or Disability (not to exceed 1095 days) divided by the entire performance period (i.e., 1,095 days for a three-year period)). Following your Termination for Death or Disability, the exercise period with
respect to your stock options will be equal to the lesser of twelve months or the remaining term of the applicable stock option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of any penalty taxes under
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (a) the payment described in clause (i) of this Section 7(c) shall be made in equal installments over the 24-month period following your
termination due to disability, (b) the payment described in clause (ii) of this Section 7(c) shall be made in four equal installments, on (or within 30 days after) the first two March 1 and September 1 following your
termination due to disability and (c) any payments scheduled to be provided pursuant to this sentence prior to the
45th day following your termination due to disability
shall instead be paid in a lump sum on the 45th day
following such termination and all payments scheduled to be made thereafter shall be made as regularly scheduled in accordance with this sentence. 

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Employment Agreement to the contrary, if you are a “specified
employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, and a payment or benefit provided for in this Employment Agreement would be subject to additional tax under Code Section 409A if such
payment or benefit is paid within six months after your “separation from service” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A), then such payment or benefit required under this Employment Agreement shall not be paid (or commence) during
the six-month period immediately following your separation from service except as provided in the immediately following sentence. In such an event, any payments or benefits that would otherwise have been made or provided during such six-month period
and which would have incurred such additional tax under Code Section 409A shall instead be paid to you (with simple interest calculated thereon at LIBOR plus 50 basis points as of the date of such separation from service) in a lump-sum payment
on the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh month following your separation from service or (ii) the
10th business day following your death. If your
termination of employment hereunder does not constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, then any amounts payable hereunder on account of a termination of your employment and which are subject to
Code Section 409A shall not be paid until you have experienced a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. 
  


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 (e) If all or any portion of the amounts payable or benefits provided to you under this
Employment Agreement or otherwise are “excess parachute payments” and are subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), and if the net after-tax amount (taking into account all applicable
taxes payable by you, including without limitation any Excise Tax) that you would receive with respect to such payments or benefits does not exceed the net after-tax amount you would receive if the amount of such payments and benefits were reduced
to the maximum amount which could otherwise be payable to you without the imposition of the Excise Tax, then, only to the extent necessary to eliminate the imposition of the Excise Tax, such payments and benefits shall be reduced, in the order and
of the type mutually agreed to by you and Intersil, provided however, that, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, such forfeitures shall first apply against the latest scheduled cash payments, then to current cash
payments and then to non-cash benefits. The calculations required under this Section 7(e) shall be prepared by Intersil and reviewed for accuracy by you and Intersil’s regular certified public accountants. 

(f) Subject to Section 7(e), no payments due you hereunder shall be subject to mitigation or offset. 

Any reimbursement or payment of premiums or other costs by Intersil pursuant to this Section shall be made no later than the end of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which the applicable premium or other cost is incurred by you. 
 8. Employee Agreement and
Release Prior to Receipt of Benefits. Upon the occurrence of a termination under Section 7(b) or 7(c) of this Employment Agreement, and prior to the receipt of any benefits under this Employment Agreement on account of the occurrence of
such a termination, you will, as of the date of such termination, execute an employee agreement and release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, provided that such agreement and release have become binding and effective in accordance
with the terms thereof on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day following the date of your termination of employment. Such employee agreement and release shall specifically relate to all of your rights and claims in existence at the time of such
execution and shall confirm your obligations under any proprietary information agreement with Intersil. It is understood that such employee release and agreement shall comply with applicable law. In the event that you do not execute such release and
agreement such that it is binding and effective (and all applicable revocation periods have expired) within forty five (45) days following such termination, no benefits shall be payable under this Employment Agreement. 

9. Proprietary Information Agreement. You also confirm your obligations under the “Employee Agreement” that you entered
into with Intersil in March 2007, which includes certain inventions, intellectual property and confidentiality covenants. 
 10.
Non-compete/Non-solicitation. 
 (a) During your Term of Employment and for two years thereafter and as a condition of
Intersil’s obligation to pay you any amounts or benefits under Section 7, you will not engage in any activity which is directly competitive with the business of Intersil or its subsidiaries and you will not, on behalf of yourself or any
third party, solicit or attempt to induce any employee of Intersil or its subsidiaries to terminate his or her employment with Intersil or its subsidiaries. The non-compete covenant in the preceding sentence shall apply in the geographic areas of:
(i) the Santa Clara, San Mateo, San Diego, Orange and San Francisco counties of California; (ii) California; (iii) the United States of America; and (iv) the world. 

 


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 (b) If the provisions of this Section 10 should ever be adjudicated to exceed any
maximum time, geographic, service or other limitations permitted by applicable law in any jurisdiction, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed in such jurisdiction to the maximum limitations permitted by applicable law. You acknowledge that
the provisions of this Section 10 are, in view of the nature of the business of Intersil and its subsidiaries, reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Intersil and its subsidiaries and that any violation of this
Section 10 may result in irreparable injury to Intersil or its subsidiaries entitling Intersil to temporary or permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages, which rights shall be cumulative with and in addition
to any other rights or remedies to which Intersil may be entitled hereunder or at law or in equity. 
 11. Arbitration.
The parties agree that any dispute regarding the interpretation or enforcement of this Employment Agreement shall be decided by confidential, final and binding arbitration conducted by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”)
under the then existing JAMS rules rather than by litigation in court, trial by jury, administrative proceeding or in any other forum. 

12. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Authority to Enter into Agreement. Intersil represents that it has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this
Employment Agreement on behalf of Intersil. 
 (b) Absence of Conflicts. You represent that upon the Effective Date, your
performance of your duties under this Employment Agreement will not breach any other agreement as to which you are a party. 

(c) Attorneys’ Fees. If a legal action or other proceeding is brought for enforcement of this Employment Agreement because of
an alleged dispute, breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Employment Agreement, the successful or prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred, both
before and after judgment, in addition to any other relief to which they may be entitled. Any reimbursements made by Intersil to you pursuant to this Section shall be made no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in
which the related cost is incurred by you. 
 (d) Taxes. Intersil may withhold from any amounts payable under this
Employment Agreement such federal, state or local income taxes to the extent determined necessary by Intersil to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. You acknowledge that you are responsible for the payment of any income taxes
due with respect to any payments or benefits hereunder or otherwise from Intersil. 
 (e) Successors. This Employment
Agreement is binding on and may be enforced by Intersil and its successors and assigns and is binding on and may be enforced by you and your heirs and legal representatives. Any successor to Intersil or to substantially all of its business (whether
by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) will in advance assume in writing and be bound by all of Intersil’s obligations under this Employment Agreement. 

 


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 (f) Notices. Notices under this Employment Agreement must be in writing and will be
deemed to have been given when personally delivered or two days after being mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. Mailed notices to you will be addressed to you at the home address which you have
most recently communicated to Intersil in writing. Notices to Intersil will be addressed to its General Counsel at Intersil’s corporate headquarters. 

(g) Waiver. No provision of this Employment Agreement will be modified or waived except in writing signed by you and an officer of
Intersil duly authorized by the Board. No waiver by either party of any breach of this Employment Agreement by the other party will be considered a waiver of any other breach of this Employment Agreement. 

(h) Entire Agreement. This Employment Agreement, including such other agreements expressly referred to herein (such as your
Severance Benefits Agreement), represent the entire agreement between us concerning the subject matter of your employment by Intersil, and expressly supersede all other promises or understandings, oral or written, including without limitation the
Prior Agreement. 
 (i) Governing Law. This Employment Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of California
without reference to conflict of laws provisions. 
 (j) Severability. If any portion of this Employment Agreement shall
be determined to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Employment Agreement shall remain in force. 
 (k)
Certain Incentive Compensation Matters. In the event that Intersil’s financial statements are restated and your fraud directly contributed to or caused such restatement, you shall repay to Intersil any incentive compensation received or
earned by you to the extent such incentive compensation would not have been received or earned by you had Intersil’s financial results or position been properly reported or stated, with such repayment to occur within 45 days after written
demand of repayment by Intersil.

 Exhibit A 

Intersil Corporation 

Employee Release Agreement 

Except as otherwise set forth in this Employee Release Agreement (the “Agreement”), I, David B. Bell, hereby release, acquit
and forever discharge Intersil Corporation (the “Company”), its parents and subsidiaries, and their officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, shareholders, successors, assigns and affiliates, of and from any and all claims,
liabilities, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, damages, indemnities and obligations of every kind and nature, in law, equity, or otherwise, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed
(other than any claim for indemnification I may have as a result of any third party action against me based on my employment with the Company), arising out of or in any way related to agreements, events, acts or conduct at any time prior to and
including the date I sign this Agreement, including but not limited to: all such claims and demands directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way connected with my employment with the Company or the termination of that employment, including
but not limited to, claims of intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress, any and all tort claims for personal injury, claims or demands related to salary, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests
in the Company, vacation pay, fringe benefits, expense reimbursements, severance pay, or any other form of compensation; claims pursuant to any federal, state or local law or cause of action including, but not limited to, the federal Civil Rights
Act of 1964, as amended; the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (“ADEA”); the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, as amended; tort law; contract
law; wrongful discharge; discrimination; fraud; defamation; emotional distress; and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall be construed in any way to release the Company
from its obligation to indemnify me pursuant to the Company’s Indemnification Agreement and to provide me with continued coverage under the Company’s directors and officers liability insurance policy to the same extent that it has provided
such coverage to previously departed officers and directors of the Company. 
 I acknowledge that I have read and understand
Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his 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.” I hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to my release of any
claims I may have against the Company or any other related party identified above. Accordingly, I agree and acknowledge that the above general release provision applies not only to claims that are presently known, suspected, or disclosed to me, but
also to claims that are presently unknown, unsuspected, or undisclosed to me. I acknowledge that I am assuming the risk that the facts may turn out to be different from what I believe them to be and agree that the general release in this Agreement
shall be in all respects effective and not subject to termination or rescission because of such mistaken belief. 
 I
acknowledge that I am knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights I may have under the ADEA. I also acknowledge that the consideration given for the waiver and release in the preceding paragraph hereof is in addition to anything of
value which I was already 
  


					
	Intersil Confidential	  		  	









 
entitled. I further acknowledge that I have been advised by this writing, as required by the ADEA, that: (a) my waiver and release do not apply to any rights or claims that may arise after
the date I sign this Agreement; (b) I have the right to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (c) I have twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement (although I may choose to voluntarily execute this
Agreement earlier); (d) I have seven (7) days following my execution of this Agreement to revoke the Agreement by providing written notice to the Company; and (e) this Agreement shall not be effective until the date upon which the
revocation period has expired, which shall be the eighth day after this Agreement is executed by me, provided that the Company has also executed this Agreement by that date.
