Mutual Separation Agreement and Release




 Exhibit 10.1 

 

 MUTUAL SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE 

This is a Mutual Separation Agreement and Release (“Mutual Separation Agreement” or “Agreement”)
between David G. Yates (“Executive”) and Western Union, LLC (the “Company”), an Affiliate of The Western Union Company (“Western Union”), whereby the parties have reached a mutual agreement that Executive hereby
voluntarily separates from his employment with the Company effective September 30, 2011 (“Separation Date”). 
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means a Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, owns or controls, is owned or is controlled by, or is under common
ownership or control with, another Person. As used herein, “control” means the power to direct the management or affairs of a Person, and “ownership” means the beneficial ownership of at least 10% of the voting securities of the
Person. The Company and/or Western Union shall be deemed to control any settlement network in which it has any equity ownership. As used herein, “Person” means any corporation, limited or general partnership, limited liability company,
joint venture, association, organization or other entity. 
 1.        
Terms and Consideration. In consideration for Executive’s execution of this Agreement, but subject to the paragraph in this Agreement titled “Review Period and Revocation” and the terms of the paragraph titled
“Consideration and Remedy,” the Company agrees to provide to Executive the following payments and benefits: 
  

	 	 (a)
	 Continued Employment. From the date this Agreement is executed through and including the Separation Date, Executive shall continue to be
employed by the Company and shall continue to receive Executive’s regular base salary as of the date this Agreement is executed, paid in regular installments on the 15th and last business day of each month, and shall continue to be an active participant under the Company’s incentive
compensation and equity plans, health, welfare, and retirement benefit programs (to the extent Executive participated in such programs immediately prior to the date of this Agreement) in accordance with the terms of such plans and programs.
Effective on the Separation Date, Executive’s employment by the Company shall voluntarily terminate and, subject to the requirements of applicable law, Executive will not be eligible to continue active participation in any Western Union benefit
plan or program, provided that Executive shall be permitted to utilize the Mayo Clinic Executive Health Program benefit a maximum of one time during 2011 and one time during 2012. In addition, the Company agrees that it will not seek payment from
Executive in connection with Executive’s use of a Company-provided vehicle during Executive’s term of employment with the Company. Furthermore, following the Separation Date the Company shall timely pay Executive ten days of accrued but
unused vacation, unpaid Base Salary, incurred but unreimbursed business expenses (in accordance with Company policy), and afford Executive the continuation/conversion rights available under the Company’s employee welfare benefits plans.



  

	 	 (b)
	 Bonus for Year of Separation. Provided that the Compensation and Benefits Committee of Western Union’s Board of Directors
(“Compensation Committee”) has certified that the applicable performance goals under the Western Union Senior Executive Annual Incentive Plan (“SEAIP”) have been achieved for 2011, a prorated bonus under the SEAIP for 2011, and
provided further that Executive executes the 2011 SEAIP Award Acceptance Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 in accordance with subparagraph (c) below (the “SEAIP Award Agreement”). Such prorated bonus shall be equal to
75 percent of the bonus Executive would have been eligible to receive had Executive not separated from employment based on the bonus payout percentages approved by the Compensation Committee for actively employed named executive officers as a result
of the level of attainment of the corporate financial and strategic leadership team goals established by the Compensation Committee for 2011 under the SEAIP. Any bonus payable to Executive under this subparagraph shall be paid in a lump sum cash
payment at the same time that bonus payments for 2011 are paid to actively employed named executive officers under the SEAIP. 










 Exhibit 10.1 

 


	 	 (c)
	 Other Agreements. Provided that Executive executes and returns to the Company on or within five business days following the Separation Date
the complete release in the form attached hereto as Schedule 1 (“September 30, 2011 Release” or “Release”), including the Exhibit A attached to the September 30, 2011 Release, which is the Global Non-Disclosure and U.S.
Non-Solicitation and U.S. Non-Competition Agreement (“Release – Exhibit A”), the deed of settlement and compromise under the laws of England and Wales in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2 (the “UK Release”), the
Consulting Agreement in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3 (“Consulting Agreement”), and the SEAIP Award Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1, all of which documents are incorporated herein by reference, Executive shall
be eligible to receive compensation in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Schedules (defined herein below). Exhibit 1 to this Agreement, the Schedule 1 and the attached Release—Exhibit A, the Schedule 2 and
Exhibits 1 and 2, and the Schedule 3, collectively, shall hereafter be referred to as the “Schedules.” In the event Executive does not sign the SEAIP Award Agreement, the September 30, 2011 Release and the Release—Exhibit A
attached thereto, the UK Release, and the Consulting Agreement or if Executive revokes the September 30, 2011 Release within seven (7) days of execution of the same, the Company shall have no obligation to provide to Executive any payment
Executive could have become eligible for under the September 30, 2011 Release and the attached Release—Exhibit A, the Consulting Agreement and the UK Release. 



 

	 	 (d)
	 Lump Sum Cash Payment to Cover Certain Costs. Provided that Executive executes and returns to the Company on or within five business days
following the Separation Date, the September 30, 2011 Release and the attached Release—Exhibit A, the Consulting Agreement and the UK Release, and subject to the expiration of the revocation period for the September 30, 2011 Release,
the Company will make a lump sum cash payment to Executive in the gross amount of $100,000.00, less tax withholding and other legally allowed deductions, to be paid within 30 days following the Separation Date. Such lump sum cash payment is intended
to cover, among other things, Executive’s relocation costs in order for Executive to relocate from Colorado to the United Kingdom. In addition, the Company agrees to pay the reasonable legal fees to Executive and expenses actually incurred by
Executive in conjunction with the negotiation and review of this Agreement and the Schedules on behalf of the Executive, up to a maximum gross amount of $25,000.00 (less tax withholding and other legally required deductions), provided that Executive
furnishes to the Company no later than October 31, 2011 a summary invoice for Seyfarth Shaw that provide the amount of the legal fees and expenses incurred by Executive in connection with the negotiation and review of the Agreement and the
Schedules. 


  

	 	 2.
	 Complete Release. 


  

	 	 (a)
	 In consideration of those payments and benefits listed in Paragraph 1(a) and 1(b) above which are payable only under this Agreement, Executive
agrees to and hereby does knowingly and voluntarily release and discharge the Company, Western Union, their subsidiaries and Affiliates, their agents, executives, directors, officers, employees, and their predecessors and successors, including the
subsidiaries, Affiliates, agents, executives, directors, officers and employees of such predecessors and successors (the “Released Parties”), from any and all claims, causes of action and demands of any kind, whether known or unknown,
which Executive has or ever has had and which are based on acts or omissions occurring up to and including the date of this Agreement. Included in the release set forth in the preceding sentence, without limiting its scope, are claims arising under
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), each as amended, as well as any other federal, state or local employment or
labor laws, wrongful discharge or employment claims, as well as any claims in contract, tort, or common law, and which are related to Executive’s employment with the Company, Western Union, and/or their subsidiaries and Affiliates or the
termination of that employment (the “Claims”). The terms “Claims” is 










 Exhibit 10.1 

 


	 	
intended to be broad and all-encompassing and is not limited to those claims specifically cited in the foregoing sentence. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement
waives a claim which by law cannot be waived. 

  

	 	     
	 Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the payments under this Agreement shall be in lieu of any severance benefits that may be payable to
Executive under Western Union’s Severance / Change in Control Policy (Executive Committee Level) (“Severance Policy”) upon Executive’s separation from employment with the Company and Executive therefore hereby waives any
severance benefits to which Executive may be entitled under the Severance Policy upon Executive’s separation from employment. 


  

	 	     
	 In addition, Executive acknowledges and agrees that all outstanding awards Executive has received under Western Union’s 2006 Long-Term
Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) shall be governed by the terms of the applicable award agreements as they apply to an award holder who is not eligible for benefits under the Severance Policy and who has voluntarily terminated employment with or
service to the Company effective on the Separation Date. Accordingly, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s restricted stock unit award granted August 2, 2010, cash performance grant award granted August 2, 2010,
performance share unit award granted February 24, 2011, and nonqualified stock option award granted February 24, 2011 shall all be forfeited in their entirety and cancelled by Western Union effective on the Separation Date. With respect to
Executive’s nonqualified stock option award granted August 2, 2010, such award shall cease to vest on the Separation Date and the unvested portion of such award shall be forfeited and cancelled by Western Union as of the Separation Date.
The portion of Executive’s August 2, 2010 nonqualified stock option award that is vested as of the Separation Date may be exercised by Executive until the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on the 30th calendar day following the Separation Date (or if the NYSE is closed
on such date, until the close of the NYSE on the next following day on which the NYSE is open), after which time such option shall be forfeited and cancelled by Western Union. 



 

	 	     
	 Executive does not waive claims, causes of action or demands of any kind that may arise after the date this Agreement is executed and which are
based on acts or omissions occurring after such date, or claims, causes of action, or demands which by law cannot be released by private agreement between the Company and the Executive. The foregoing release shall not apply to
(i) Executive’s right to indemnification under the Company’s bylaws or otherwise, (ii) rights to directors and officers liability insurance (to the extent eligible), (iii) obligations of the Company created by this
Agreement, or (iv) claims, causes of action or demands of any kind that may arise after the date this Agreement is executed and which are based on acts or omissions occurring after such date. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
in this Agreement waives a claim which by law cannot be waived. 


  

	 	 (b)
	 Executive further agrees that while nothing in this Agreement shall limit Executive’s right to maintain a pending charge of discrimination, or
file a future charge of discrimination, with any federal, state or local governmental agency relating to Executive’s employment with the Company and/or participate in any proceeding relating to any action or Executive’s employment, whether
brought by an agency or by another on Executive’s behalf, Executive expressly waives by this Agreement the right to recover monetary damages and any other relief personal to Executive if such charge, lawsuit or action is pursued.
Notwithstanding this provision, Executive may bring a claim against the Company to enforce this Agreement or to challenge the validity of this Agreement under ADEA. 



3.     Termination from Employment. Prior to the Separation Date, the employment of Executive
is subject to termination by Executive, or by the Company, Western Union and their subsidiaries and Affiliates (for the purpose of this Paragraph 3, collectively the “Company”) under the following circumstances: 

 

	 	 (a)
	 Termination by Executive. Prior to the Separation Date, Executive may terminate Executive’s employment, at any time. In the event of
such termination, the Company shall have no 










 Exhibit 10.1 

 


	 	
obligation thereafter to continue to provide to Executive the payments and benefits hereunder and such consideration immediately shall cease (except to the extent that such payments and benefits
are required by law), including any payments and benefits Executive would be eligible for under the Consulting Agreement referenced in Paragraph 1. 

  

	 	 (b)
	 Termination by the Company. Prior to the Separation Date, Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Company for “Cause.”
For purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall be determined by the Company in good faith and shall be limited to the following events: 


  

	 	 •
	 	 Theft, dishonesty or other irregularities impacting the Company, such as the falsification of any Company records or lying during an investigation.




	 	 •
	 	 Damage, loss or destruction of Company, employee, supplier or customer property due to Executive’s grossly negligent or intentional acts or
failures to act. 



	 	 •
	 	 Unauthorized removal from premises or use of property belonging to the Company without the appropriate level of approval.




	 	 •
	 	 Executive has committed or engaged in grossly negligent or willful conduct that is likely to be detrimental to the Company.




	 	 •
	 	 Executive has willfully disobeyed the lawful directive of his supervisor, the Company’s General Counsel Officer, or the Board of Directors.

	 	 Executive has willfully refused or is unwilling to perform reasonable duties assigned. 



	 	 •
	 	 Willfully engaging in any activity inconsistent with, or which impairs or interferes with, the Company’s compliance with state, federal, and
other laws. 



	 	 •
	 	 Material breach by Executive of any term of this Agreement. 



 

	 	     
	 None of the foregoing events shall be deemed to be Cause for termination unless (i) the Company shall have notified the Executive in writing
(setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of the event(s) constituting Cause) of such event within ten days of the Company first having knowledge of such event, and (ii) the Executive shall have failed to remedy or cure such event to the
Company’s reasonable satisfaction within ten days of receiving such notice. 


  

	 	 (c)
	 Termination for Cause. In the event the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause, the Company shall have no obligation
thereafter to provide to Executive the consideration hereunder and such consideration immediately shall cease (except to the extent that such payments and benefits are required by law), including any payment Executive could be eligible for under the
Consulting Agreement referenced in Paragraph 1. In addition, the Company shall be entitled to all remedies available at law and equity; and the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of court incurred by the
prevailing party in any lawsuit or other action in connection with such termination. 



4.      Cooperation. From the date of execution of this Agreement and thereafter until
December 31, 2012, Executive agrees to cooperate fully with the Company, its financial and legal advisors, and/or government officials in any claims, investigations, administrative proceedings, lawsuits, and other legal, internal or business
matters, as reasonably requested by the Company. Company will take into consideration the Executive’s personal and business commitments, will give the Executive as much advance notice as reasonably possible, and ask that Executive be available
at such time or times, and at such location or locations, as are mutually convenient to the Company and the Executive. Company agrees to reimburse Executive for the actual out-of-pocket expenses Executive incurs, in accordance with the Western
Union’s Global Travel and Expense Policy (“Travel Policy”), as a result of Executive’s complying with this Paragraph 4, subject to Executive’s submission to the Company of documentation substantiating such expenses as the
Company requires under its Travel Policy. 
 To the extent that it is consistent with the Company’s
by-laws, certificate of incorporation and applicable laws, the Company will engage on its own behalf to represent Executive with legal counsel of its choosing if necessary in connection with such cooperation, and in any event will reimburse
Executive for documented, 








 Exhibit 10.1 

 

 
reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket travel expenses as are required and which Executive incurs in complying with Executive’s obligations under this paragraph in accordance with Western
Union’s Global Travel and Expenses Policy. If for any reason the Company determines that a conflict of interest may exist between Executive and the Company, the Company may require Executive to obtain separate counsel in which case the Company
will subsequently reimburse Executive for the reasonable and necessary legal fees associated with the use of such counsel and/or related travel expenses (as limited above), to the extent that such reimbursement is permitted by the Company’s
by-laws, certificate of incorporation and applicable laws. 
 5.        
Non-Disparagement. Executive agrees not to intentionally make any direct or indirect derogatory statements regarding, or disparage in any way, the business or reputation of the Company or its subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any of their
directors, officers, managers or employees, unless such statements are required by law. Company agrees that its officers and Executive Committee Members shall not intentionally make any direct or indirect derogatory statements regarding, or
disparage in any way, the reputation of Executive, unless such statements are required by law. 

6.         Non-Admission. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to be or
shall be construed as an admission by the Executive, the Company or any of the other Released Parties that he or they violated any law, interfered with any right, breached any obligation or otherwise engaged in any improper or illegal conduct with
respect to the other or otherwise, the parties hereto expressly deny any such improper or illegal conduct. 

7.         Severability and Governing Law. In the event that any provision
of this Agreement is deemed unenforceable, the parties agree that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have jurisdiction to reform such provision to the extent necessary to cause it to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. The
provisions in this Agreement are severable, and if any provision is determined to be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable. This Agreement shall be governed by and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state of Colorado without regard to principles of conflicts of law. 
 8.         Other Agreements, Survivability, and Successorship. Executive acknowledges that, except as provided in this paragraph, this Agreement (including
the Schedules) is the entire agreement between the Company and Executive concerning the subject matter hereof and that Executive has not relied on any other representations or statements, written or oral, by the Released Parties or their employees
or agents concerning the terms of the Agreement or any other matters not contained herein. From and after the Separation Date this Agreement (including all Schedules) shall supersede any non-solicitation, non-compete, non-disclosure,
confidentiality, clawback or other written agreement that Executive may have signed while employed with the Company, Western Union, and/or their subsidiaries or Affiliates, except for the terms and conditions of Executive’s nonqualified stock
option award granted August 2, 2010 (other than the restrictive covenant provisions thereof), and for avoidance of doubt, subject to Executive’s execution of this Agreement (and the Schedules) and Executive does not revoke the
September 30, 2011 Release, the Company and Executive agree that the Restrictive Covenant Agreement for Employees in Colorado executed by Executive in 2010 shall be considered null and void effective on the Separation Date. In addition to this
paragraph, the paragraphs in this Agreement necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties shall survive the termination of this Agreement 
 This Agreement inures to the benefit of the Executive’s heirs and permitted assigns, provided that the Consulting Agreement shall not be subject to assignment by Executive without the Company’s
prior written consent, and any successors or assigns of the Company, Western Union, and/or their subsidiaries and Affiliates, and Executive’s obligations apply equally to the Company, Western Union, their subsidiaries, Affiliates, and/or their
successors and assigns. 
 In the event of Executive’s death prior to Executive’s receipt of all of
the sums due to Executive under this Agreement and the Schedules, the unpaid balance of such sums shall be paid to Executive’s estate. 
 9.         Consideration and Remedy. Executive acknowledges that in addition to this paragraph, the following paragraphs are material provisions of this
Agreement: Complete Release; Termination from Employment; Cooperation; Non-Disparagement; and Other Agreements, Survivability and Successorship (collectively, the “Material Provisions”). Executive further acknowledges that (i) the
first $5,000.00 payable to Executive as 








 Exhibit 10.1 

 

 
payments pursuant to Paragraph 1(a) and 1(b) of this Agreement is consideration (the “ADEA Consideration”) for Executive’s release and waiver in the “Complete Release”
paragraph of this Agreement of any claims, causes of action and demands of any kind arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (the “ADEA Released Claims”); and (ii) the remainder of the amount payable
to Executive as payments and benefits described in Paragraph 1(a) and 1(b) of this Agreement are consideration (the “Other Consideration”) for (a) the Executive’s release and waiver in the “Complete Release” paragraph
of this Agreement of any claims, causes of action and demands of any kind other than the ADEA Released Claims (the “Other Released Claims”); and (b) the Executive’s obligations pursuant to the Material Provisions. In the event of
a breach by Executive of the Material Provisions (excluding ADEA Released Claims) or in the event Executive challenges the enforceability of this Agreement as to any of the Other Released Claims, the Company shall be entitled to immediately cease
providing to Executive the Other Consideration and any other benefits under this Agreement, except to the extent that such payments and benefits are required, either under this paragraph or by law. The Company, Western Union, and/or their
subsidiaries and Affiliates shall also be entitled to all remedies available at law or equity. 

10.         Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings in this Agreement
are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect the meaning or interpretation of any provisions hereof. 
 11.         Amendments in Writing. No modification, amendment to, or waiver of this Agreement or any of its provisions shall be binding upon Executive or the
Company, Western Union, its subsidiaries or Affiliates unless made in writing and duly signed by both parties. 

12.         Review Period and Revocation. Executive acknowledges that
Executive was given a period of at least 21 calendar days to review this Agreement (“Review Period”) from the date Executive received it. Executive agrees that to the extent there are changes made to the terms of this Agreement, whether
they are material or immaterial, the 21-day period for review of this Agreement is not recommenced. To accept this Agreement, Executive must sign both originals and return them to Scott Scheirman on or before the last day of the Review Period.
Executive acknowledges that the Company and Released Parties have made no promises to Executive other than those contained in this Agreement. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE WAS ADVISED IN WRITING BY THIS AGREEMENT TO REVIEW THIS AGREEMENT
WITH AN ATTORNEY BEFORE SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT. Executive is further advised that Executive has 7 days after Executive signs this Agreement to revoke it by notifying the Company of such revocation in writing. In the event Executive revokes this
Agreement as specified in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall deem this Agreement to be void in its entirety, in which case neither party shall be bound by its terms and no payment shall be made to the Executive hereunder. If
Executive properly revokes this Agreement, Executive shall nevertheless remain subject to any other agreement that Executive signed while employed with the Company, Western Union, and/or their subsidiaries or Affiliates as referenced in the
paragraph titled “Other Agreements, Survivability and Successorship”.

 Pursuant to the
provisions of The Western Union Company Senior Executive Annual Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), David G. Yates (the “Participant”), has been identified as eligible to participate in the Plan for the Performance Period set forth in

the Plan and below. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan. 

1.         Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement. The Award shall be
null and void unless the Participant shall accept this Agreement by executing the Incentive Award Acceptance Agreement and returning it to the Company at such time as shall be satisfactory to the Company. 

2.         Service Vesting Requirement. Except as otherwise determined by
the Committee, if the Participant’s employment in his current position with the Company terminates for any reason prior to the date set forth in the Incentive Award Acceptance Agreement (the “Vesting Date”), the Participant shall not
be entitled to receive the Incentive Award. 
 3.         Committee
Discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in all cases, the Committee shall have the sole and absolute discretion, taking into account such factors as the Committee deems appropriate, to determine the amount of the Award
payable to the Participant (not to exceed the maximum award set forth in the Incentive Award Acceptance Agreement) or to decide that no payment shall be made. 
 4.         Payment. If the Committee certifies that the applicable Performance Measures have been achieved and has determined the amount and approved the
payment of the Award to the Participant, the Participant shall receive, during the period beginning on January 1 and ending on March 15 (March 31, in the case of a Participant who is not a United States taxpayer) of the calendar year
immediately following the year in which the Vesting Date occurs, a lump sum cash payment from the Company in an amount equal to the Award determined by the Committee, subject to the deduction of taxes and other amounts pursuant to the Plan, unless

period. All payments under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code as “short-term deferrals,” within the meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Code. 

5.         Withholding. All payments under this Agreement are subject to
withholding of any federal, state, local or other income, social insurance, payroll or other tax-related items which may be required to be withheld or paid in connection with such award.

7.         Nontransferability of Award. The Award and any rights
thereunder shall not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

provisions of the Plan and the Clawback Policy and shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Clawback Policy.

from service (within the meaning of section 409A of the Code), if the Participant is a specified employee (within the meaning of section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code), and if any such payment otherwise is required to be made prior to the first day of
the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service, such payment shall be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service. To the extent that any payments or benefits
under this Agreement are subject to section 409A of the Code and are paid or provided on account of the Participant’s termination of employment, the determination as to whether the Participant has had a termination of employment (or separation

Code Section 409A(a)(1) to the extent subject to Code Section 409A. However, under no circumstances shall the Company, Western Union, or their subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of their employees, officers, directors, service providers or
agents have any liability to Executive for any taxes, penalties or interest due on amounts paid or payable under this Release, including any taxes, penalties or interest imposed under Code Section 409A. The payments to Executive pursuant to
this Release are intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A to the maximum extent possible, first, to the extent such payments are scheduled to be paid and are in fact paid during the short-term deferral period, as short-term deferrals

determination of whether a payment qualifies as a short-term deferral shall be made without regard to whether other payments so qualify and the determination of whether a payment qualifies under the separation pay exemption shall be made without
regard to any payments which qualify as short-term deferrals. To the extent any amounts under this Release are payable by reference to Executive’s “termination of employment” or “separation from employment” such terms shall

Section 409A of the Code, as of the date of Executive’s separation from service, then to the extent any amount payable under this Release (i) constitutes the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Code
Section 409A, (ii) is payable upon Executive’s separation from service and (iii) under the terms of this Release would be payable prior to the six-month anniversary of Executive’s separation from service, such payment shall
be delayed until the earlier to occur of (a) the six-month anniversary of the separation from service or (b) the date of Executive’s death. 
 13.         Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings in this Release are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to alter or affect the
meaning or interpretation of any provisions hereof. 
 14.

extent there are changes made to the terms of this Release, whether they are material or immaterial, the 21-day period for review of this Release is not recommenced. Executive cannot sign the Release or the Release – ExhibitA prior to
Executive’s Separation Date. To accept this Release and the Release – Exhibit A, Executive must sign originals of both and return them to Scott Scheirman on or no later than five business days following the Separation Date. Executive
acknowledges that the Company and Released Parties have made no promises to Executive other than those contained in this Release. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EXECUTIVE WAS ADVISED IN WRITING BY THIS RELEASE TO REVIEW THIS RELEASE WITH AN ATTORNEY
BEFORE SIGNING THIS RELEASE. Executive is further advised that Executive has seven days after Executive signs this Release to revoke it by notifying the Company of such revocation in writing. In the event Executive revokes this Release as specified
in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall deem this Release and the Release – Exhibit A to be void in its entirety, in which case neither party shall be bound by its terms and no payment shall be made to the Executive hereunder.
If Executive properly revokes this Release, Executive shall nevertheless remain subject to any other agreement that Executive signed while employed with the Company, Western Union, and/or their subsidiaries or Affiliates as referenced in the
paragraph titled “Other Agreements, Survivability and Successorship” and the Release – Exhibit A shall be declared null and void.

covenants contained in this Agreement, the Company shall suffer irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and the Company will therefore be entitled to seek temporary, preliminary, and/or permanent injunctive relief, without
bond or other security from the courts, enjoining additional breaches and threatened breaches. Executive further acknowledges that the Company also shall have the right to seek a remedy at law as well as or in lieu of equitable relief in the event
of any such breach. 


  

	 X.
	 Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado without regard
to principles of conflict of law. 


  

	 XI.
	 Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties agree to waive their right to trial by jury for any dispute hereunder. 



 

	 XII.
	 Waiver of Breach. The Company’s waiver of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the Executive does not waive any
subsequent breach by the Executive, nor does the Company’s failure to take action against any other employee for similar breaches operate as a waiver by the Company of Executive’s breach of this Agreement. 



 

	 XIII.
	 Attorney’s Fees. If the Company must enforce any of its rights under this Agreement through legal proceedings, the prevailing
party shall be reimbursed by the other party for all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorney’s fees incurred in connection with such legal proceedings.
