CONFIDENTIAL
SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE


 


This Separation Agreement and General Release
("Agreement") is entered into by and between J. Joseph Tyler ("Employee") and Versar, Inc. ("Versar"
or the "Company"). The parties to this Agreement are hereafter referred to as “Parties.”


 


In consideration of the mutual covenants,
agreements and representations contained herein, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto expressly and
intentionally bind themselves as follows:


 


		1.	Termination of Employment. The Parties agree that the Employee’s employment
with the Company shall terminate on July 1, 2014, which is also known as the “Separation Date”. The Employee
will be paid his earned compensation through and including the Separation Date, less any applicable taxes and deductions.



 


		2.	Payments and Other Benefits.



 


		(a)	In consideration for the Employee’s execution of this Agreement, the Company will provide
the Employee with a lump sum payment of cash in lieu of the Four Thousand Six Hundred Sixty (4,660) Restricted Stock Units which
have been awarded to Employee, but which have not yet vested (“the RSU Payment”), less any withholding and other
taxes required by law, and Employee further understands and agrees that this RSU Payment is in excess of any and all claims for
salary, personal leave time or any other form of compensation. The value of each RSU shall be calculated as of the end of the trading
day on June 27, 2014.



 


		(b)	Except as provided in this Agreement or as otherwise required under the terms of an applicable
employee benefit plan, Employee agrees and acknowledges that his participation in any 401(k) Plan, short-term and long-term disability
plans, or any other benefit plans made available to him as a Versar employee, and his participation in and entitlement to any and
all other benefits in which he is currently enrolled, but which are not specifically addressed in this Agreement, will terminate
on the Separation Date, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.



 


		(c)	Employee's participation, if any, in the Versar medical, dental, vision and other insurance plans
shall cease as of the Separation Date unless, to the extent that Employee is eligible, he timely elects to receive medical and/or
dental benefits pursuant to the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act ("COBRA") for
himself and/or any qualifying beneficiaries.



 


		(d)	Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Employee waives any right of participation in,
or additional benefits under, the employee benefit, fringe benefit and compensation plans of Versar with respect to any period
after the Separation Date.

		3.	Unused and Accrued Paid Time Off. The Employee shall be paid, consistent with Versar
Policy Memo No. 3.2, all accrued but unused personal leave as of the Separation Date, up to a cap of 300 hours, less any applicable
taxes and deductions. Such payments shall be made in accordance with Versar's regular payroll schedule.



 


		4.	Employee’s Acknowledgements. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that once
all payments are made according to this Agreement: (a) the Employee has received all compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions,
vacation pay and benefits to which the Employee may be entitled, and no other compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions, vacation
pay and benefits are due; (b) the Employee has not suffered any on-the-job injury for which he has not already filed a claim; and
(c) nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute or be treated as an admission of liability or wrongdoing by the Company
or its officers, directors, employees or agents.



 


		5.	Return of Property. The Employee hereby certifies that he has returned or will return
with this executed Agreement, all Company property, including but not limited to PDAs, cardkey passes, instructional manuals, and
other physical or personal property that the Employee received in connection with his employment with the Company.



 


		6.	Non-Compete/Non-Solicitation. Employee recognizes that by virtue of his employment
with the Company, he has been introduced to and involved in the solicitation and servicing of potential and existing customers
of the Company. Employee understands and agrees that all efforts expended in soliciting and servicing such customers have been
for the permanent benefit of the Company. Employee further recognizes the substantial expenditure of time and effort which the
Company devotes to the recruitment, hiring, orientation, training and retention of its employees. In recognition of these issues
and in consideration of the payments reflected in Section 2, the Employee agrees that:



 


		(a)	Without the written consent of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, for a period
of one (1) year after the Separation Date, the Employee shall not: (i) market, offer, sell or otherwise furnish any services that
are related to an opportunity or engagement for which the Company is an actual or likely competitor, or (ii) have or acquire any
interest, whether as an investor (excluding investments representing less than one percent (1%) of the common stock of a public
company), officer, director, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, owner or otherwise,
in nor provide services for any enterprise, business or venture engaged in or which proposes to engage in a business which is in
competition with the Company;



 


		(b)	Should Employee seek to pursue an employment opportunity or consulting engagement which may be
prohibited under Section 6(a) herein, the Employee must submit to the Vice President, Contracts and Procurement, a completed Conflicts
Form, a copy of which attached as Exhibit A, to obtain the Company’s consent. Should the Company fail to respond to a fully
completed and properly submitted Conflicts Form within five (5) business days of submission, the Company shall be deemed to have
waived any conflict or objection.



 




    	2



    	 



    

 


		(c)	For a period of one (1) year after the Separation Date, directly or indirectly solicit, divert,
or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert or take away, the business or patronage of any of the clients, customers or accounts
of the Company which were contacted, solicited, or served by the Employee (or by those reporting to the Employee) while employed
by or affiliated with the Company or about whom the Employee acquired any trade secret or Confidential Information, as defined
below, during employment with the Company; or



 


		(d)	For a period of two (2) years after the Separation Date, directly or indirectly recruit, solicit
or hire any employee of the Company, or induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company to terminate his/her employment
with, or otherwise cease his/her relationship with, the Company.



 


It is not the intention of the
Company to interfere with the employment opportunities of former employees except in those situations, described above, in which
such employment would conflict with the legitimate interests of the Company.


 


		7.	Release and Agreement Not to Sue. In exchange for the RSU Payment described herein,
the Employee hereby agrees as follows:



 


		(a)	Except as otherwise provided in this section, the Employee hereby releases the Company and all
related entities, including but not limited to current and former managers, employees, parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, officers,
directors, stockholders, trustees, agents, representatives, administrators, attorneys, insurers, fiduciaries, predecessors, successors
and assigns, in their individual and/or representative capacities (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Released
Parties”), from any and all causes of action, suits, agreements, promises, damages, disputes, controversies, contentions,
differences, judgments, claims and demands of any kind whatsoever (“Claims”) which he, or his heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns ever had, now have or may have against the Released Parties, whether known or unknown, and
whether asserted or unasserted, (i) by reason of his employment and/or cessation of employment with the Company, (ii) his eligibility
for severance, or (iii) otherwise involving facts which occurred on or prior to the date that this Agreement is signed by the Parties.
The Employee agrees that such released Claims include, without limitation, any and all Claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1871, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Equal Pay Act, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the
Civil Rights Act 1866, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Age Discrimination in Employment
Act of 1967, as amended by the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act of 1990, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (including, without limitation, any claim for severance pay), any state Human Rights Law
and any and all other federal, state or local laws, statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to employment or discrimination
in employment including, but not limited to, discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, race, national origin, religion,
disability, veteran status, or age; any and all Claims under state contract or tort law; and any and all Claims for attorneys’

    	3



    	 



    

 


		(b)	The Employee agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that he will not bring or participate
in any lawsuits or claims against any Released Party for any released Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this covenant not to
sue does not preclude the Employee from filing a civil action or administrative proceeding under the Age Discrimination in Employment
Act of 1967 or any statute that prohibits such a covenant not to sue. This Agreement shall also not be construed to prohibit the
Employee from participating in any investigation or proceedings conducted by a government agency; however, the Employee agrees
that he is waiving his right to monetary recovery should any federal, state or local administrative agency pursue any claims on
his behalf arising out of or relating to his employment with and/or separation from the Company; and



 


		(c)	Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to preclude the Employee from providing truthful
testimony or information pursuant to a valid court order or similar legal process; provided however, that prior to
making any such disclosure, he will promptly notify the Company of such request or requirement so that the Company, if it so chooses,
will have sufficient opportunity to seek to avoid or minimize the required disclosure and/or to obtain an appropriate protective
order or other appropriate relief.



 


		(d)	It is agreed and understood that this release is a GENERAL RELEASE to be construed in the broadest
possible manner consistent with applicable law. The Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that by signing this Agreement, he
is signing this General Release.



 


		8.	No Admission of Liability. The fact that the Company is offering the RSU Payment
to the Employee should not be understood as nor is it intended to be an admission that the Company, any of its related entities
or any Released Party, has violated the Employee’s rights (or the rights of anyone else) in any manner whatsoever.



 


		9.	Confidentiality. In exchange for the RSU Payment and releases contained herein, the
Employee agrees that he will not, unless required by law or otherwise allowed under this Agreement, disclose to anyone other than
legal counsel any information regarding the following: the existence and the substance of this Agreement, the benefits being paid
under it, or the fact of such payment, except that the Parties may disclose this information to their attorneys, accountants or
other professional advisors to whom the Employee must make the disclosure in order for them to render professional services. The
Employee will instruct them, however, to maintain the confidentiality of this information just as he must.

		10.	Non-Disparagement. In exchange for the various consideration contained herein, the
Parties respectively agree that they will not, unless required by law or otherwise allowed under this Agreement, make any disparaging
statements, observations or opinions (whether oral or written) (collectively “Statements”), including but not
limited to: (a)Statements to the Company’s employees, clients, customers, contractors or any other party, that disparage
the reputation of the Company, its current and former managers, employees, directors, officers, representatives and affiliated
persons and entities, or (b) Statements to any clients, customers, potential employers, or any other third parties that disparage
the reputation of the Employee. Breach of this provision by either party shall be considered material.



 


		11.	Injunctive Relief. In the event that the Employee breaches any obligations under
this Agreement, or as otherwise imposed by law, the Company will be entitled to seek injunctive relief and to obtain all other
relief provided by law or equity.

Commonwealth of Virginia, and the Employee and the Company hereby submit to and agree that the exclusive jurisdiction for any suit,
action or proceeding involving this Agreement will be in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia
or any local court located in Fairfax County in the Commonwealth of Virginia.



 


		13.	Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, and any employment agreement
that may have existed between the Parties is hereby terminated. By executing this Agreement, the Parties agree and acknowledge
that except for the RSU Payment described in this Agreement, neither Party shall be entitled to any further consideration from
the other. This Agreement may not be changed orally, but may be changed only in writing signed by all the Parties. All agreements

		14.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute but one and the same Agreement.



 


		15.	Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted
in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. In case any part of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal,
or otherwise unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby.



 


		16.	Taxes. The Employee agrees to pay federal and state taxes, if any, that are required
by law to be paid by him with respect to any compensation or other payments received from the Company. The Employee further agrees
to indemnify the Company for all claims and demands made on the Company, plus its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred,
insofar as any of such matters are attributable to any tax obligation of the Employee.




 


		17.	Advice of Counsel. The Employee acknowledges that he has been advised that he has
the right to be represented by counsel. The Employee acknowledges that the decision to sign this Agreement is his alone and he
acknowledges and agrees that the Company is under no obligation other than those imposed by this Agreement, and that he has entered
into this Agreement and executed releases herein freely and voluntarily.



 


		18.	Waiver. The failure of either party to require the performance of any term or obligation
of this Agreement, or the waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement
of such term or obligation and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.



 


		19.	Right to Revoke. Pursuant to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”),
the Employee has up to twenty-one (21) calendar days after the Separation Date to decide whether or not to sign this Agreement.
The Employee agrees that if he decides not to take all that time that his reasons for doing so are entirely personal and not due
to any pressure by Company. The Employee’s signature on this Agreement constitutes an express waiver of the 21-day period
if he signs it before the 21-day period expires. The Company's offer of the RSU Payment in this Agreement is automatically revoked
if the Employee has not signed the Agreement and returned it to the Company's Vice President of Human Resources within this 21-day
period. In order to exercise his right to revoke the waiver of his ADEA claims, the Employee must provide written notice to Versar,
c/o Alessandria Albers, Vice President of Human Resources, 6850 Versar Center, Springfield, VA, 22151, no later than 5:00 p.m.
on the seventh day following his execution of the Agreement. The Employee agrees that, if he revokes this Agreement, it will not
be effective or enforceable and he will not receive the consideration contemplated under this Agreement. The Agreement will become
effective on the eighth calendar day after the Employee signs and does not revoke according to this provision.
