Retirement, then, subject to Clause 11 below and Employee’s continued compliance with Clause 16, Employee shall be entitled to receive:

percentage will be applied to the bonus amount that would have been payable to Employee based on actual achievement of the applicable corporate performance criteria had Employee remained employed through the STIP Payment Date. The prorated incentive
award will be paid to Employee on the STIP Payment Date, plus 
 11. Release: The receipt of any payment pursuant to Clause 8(b), 9 or
10, above, will be subject to Employee timely signing and not revoking a standard release of all claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to Employer (the “Release”). To be timely, the Release must become effective and irrevocable no later
than sixty (60) days following the Termination Date (the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Employee will forfeit any rights to the benefits described in Clause 8(b),

effective and irrevocable. 
 12. Excise Taxes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any payments or
benefits paid or payable hereunder or otherwise, including, but not limited to, under the Original Agreement, to Employee (the “Payments”) would (a) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of
the Code, and (b) but for this sentence, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payments will be reduced to be equal to the Reduced Amount (as defined below) if and to
the extent that a reduction in the Payments would result in Employee retaining a larger amount, on an after-tax basis (taking into account federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax), than if Employee received the entire
amount of such Payments in accordance with their existing terms. The “Reduced Amount” will be the largest portion of the Payments that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments
or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in a manner necessary to provide Employee with the greatest economic benefit. If more than one manner of
reduction of payments or benefits necessary to arrive at the Reduced Amount yields the greatest economic benefit, the payments and benefits shall be reduced pro rata. Employee may not exercise any discretion with respect to the ordering of any
reductions of payments or benefits under this Clause 12. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Clause 12 shall be made in writing by Employer’s or an Affiliate’s independent public accountants
(the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Employer and Employee for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this

Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Clause 12. Employer shall bear all costs incurred for and by the Accountants in connection with any calculations or determinations contemplated by this Clause 12.

 13. Remedies - Injunction: In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions of this Agreement,
Employee agrees that Employer and its Affiliates, in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies, or damages available to Employer at law or in equity, shall be entitled to seek a preliminary and a permanent injunction from a
court of competent jurisdiction in order to prevent or restrain any such breach by Employee or by Employee’s partners, agents, representatives, servants, employers, employees and/or any and all persons directly or indirectly acting for or with
Employee. Nothing in Clause 14 below shall limit the Employer from applying to any court of competent jurisdiction for the equitable relief noted in this Clause to which the Employer may be entitled without reference to an arbitrator for any
decision whatsoever under Clause 14. 
 14. Arbitration: All disputes concerning the meaning or effect of this Agreement and all disputes
arising under this Agreement (except those arising under Clause 13 above), including but not limited to all claims of discrimination based on age, race, creed, color, sex, national origin, disability, gender preference or any other claim of
discrimination arising under any state or federal law, including, but not limited to the federal Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, as amended, and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, shall be subject to final and binding arbitration in
accordance with the Code of Civil Procedure of the State of California or under such other procedures as the Parties may hereafter agree to in writing. 
 15. Return of Information: In the event of termination of Employee’s employment for any reason, Employee shall immediately deliver to Employer or the relevant Affiliate all originals and
copies in Employee’s custody or control of any and all Confidential Information, equipment, and written materials obtained by Employee from Employer, any Affiliate of Employer or any representative or client of Employer during the period of
employment. 
 16. Post-Employment Non-Solicitation of Other Employees: Employee agrees that for a period of one (1) year after
termination of Employee’s employment, Employee will not directly or indirectly solicit or otherwise discuss with any other employee of Employer or any of its Affiliates, for as long as such employee remains employed by Employer or its
Affiliates, any terms or conditions relating to such employee’s leaving the employ of Employer or its Affiliates. The receipt of any benefits pursuant to Clause 9 or 10 will be subject to Employee not violating the provisions of this Clause 16.
In the event Employee breaches the provisions of Clause 16, all continuing payments and benefits to which Employee may otherwise be entitled pursuant to Clause 9 or 10 will immediately cease and Employer will be entitled to any other rights and
remedies and may take any other action legally permissible as a result of breaching the provisions of Clause 16.

 ANNEX A 
 SECTION 409A ADDENDUM 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to Employee, if any, pursuant to the Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until
Employee has had a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to Employee, if any, that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until Employee has had a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Each payment and benefit payable under the Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for
purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 
 Any severance payments or benefits under the Agreement
that would be considered Deferred Payments will be paid or will commence on the sixtieth (60th) day following Employee’s separation from service, or, if later, such time as required by the next paragraph. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, if Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of
Section 409A at the time of Employee’s termination (other than due to death), then the Deferred Payments that would otherwise have been payable within the first six (6) months following Employee’s separation from service, will be
paid on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Employee’s separation from service, but in no event later than seven months after the date of such separation from
service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Employee dies following Employee’s separation
from service, but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of
Employee’s death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. 
 The amount payable pursuant to Clause 10(a) of the Agreement is intended to satisfy the requirements of the “limited payments” exception under Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(D) of the Treasury
Regulations and will not constitute a Deferred Payment unless such amount, when aggregated with any other severance payments or benefits or separation benefits subject to Section 409A, exceeds the limitation set forth therein. Any amount paid
under the Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations will not 







 
constitute Deferred Payments. Any amount paid under the Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to
Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit (as defined below) will not constituted Deferred Payments. For this purpose, the “Section 409A Limit” will mean two
(2) times the lesser of: (i) Employee’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to him during Employee’s taxable year preceding his taxable year of his separation from service as determined under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(1) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the
Internal Revenue Code for the year in which Employee’s separation from service occurred. 
 The foregoing provisions are
intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be
interpreted to so comply. Employer and Employee agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to the Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax
or income recognition prior to actual payment to Employee under Section 409A.
