	(d)
	Employee, for herself, her heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors and to the maximum extent permitted by law, agrees that she has not filed, nor will file, a lawsuit asserting any claims which are released by this general release, or to accept any benefit from any lawsuit which might be filed by another person or government entity based in whole or in part on any event, act, or omission which is the subject of this Release.  Employee understands that nothing in this Agreement and General Release (including but not limited to the release of claims, promise not to sue, and confidentiality, cooperation, non-disparagement, and return of property provisions) (a) limits or affects her right to challenge the validity of this Release under the ADEA or the Older Worker Protection Act (“OWBPA”) or (b) prevents Employee from filing a charge or complaint with or from participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”), the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”), the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), or any other federal, state or local agency charged with the enforcement of any laws, including providing documents or other information,  or (c) prevents Employee from exercising her rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”) to engage in protected, concerted activity with other employees, Although by signing this Agreement and General Release Employee is waiving her right to recover any individual relief (including  backpay, frontpay, reinstatement or other legal or equitable relief) in any charge, complaint, or lawsuit or other proceeding brought by Employee or on her behalf by any third party, except for any right Employee may have to receive a payment or award from a government agency (and not the Company) for information provided to the government agency.  




		
	(e)
	This General Release specifically excludes Employee’s indemnification as an officer and employee of the Company or any affiliate thereof, coverage under any officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policies, and rights of defense (or the cost thereof) or indemnification under the Company’s bylaws or charter or resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors.  This General Release also specifically excludes Employee’s rights to her vested employee benefits. Nothing contained in this Release shall release Employee from her obligations, including any obligations to abide by the restrictive covenants in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement that continue or are to be performed following termination of employment. 




		
	(f)

	(g)
	The provisions of this general release of claims are severable, and if any part or portion of it is found to be unenforceable, the other paragraphs shall remain fully valid and enforceable. This general release shall become effective and enforceable on the eighth day following execution by Employee, provided he does not exercise her right of revocation as described above. If Employee fails to sign this Agreement or revokes her signature, this Agreement will be without force or effect.




		
	(h)
	Nothing in this Agreement prohibits Employee from reporting an event that Employee  reasonably and in good faith believes is a violation of law to the relevant law-enforcement agency (such as the SEC, EEOC, NLRB or Department of 




3







Labor), or from cooperating in an investigation conducted by such a government agency.  This may include disclosure of trade secret or confidential information within the limitations permitted by the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA).  Employee is hereby provided notice that under the  DTSA, (1) no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret (as defined in the Economic Espionage Act) that (A) is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or, (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and, (2) an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of the law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order.


		
	IV.
	Non-Disparagement


Employee represents that she has not and agrees that she will not in any way disparage the Company or any Released Party, their current and former officers, directors and employees, or make or solicit any comments, statements, or the like to the media or to others that may be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to the good name or business reputation of any of the aforementioned parties or entities.  Nothing contained in this paragraph is intended to restrict employee’s right and responsibility to give truthful testimony under oath or precludes employee from participating in an investigation, filing a charge, or otherwise communicating with the EEOC, SEC, the NLRB, or other federal, state or local government agency.
V.         Cooperation
		
	(a)
	Employee further agrees that, subject to reimbursement of reasonable expenses, she will cooperate fully with the Company and its counsel with respect to any matter (including any pending or future litigation, investigations, or governmental proceedings) which relates to matters with which Employee was involved during her employment with the Company. Employee will render such cooperation in a timely manner upon reasonable notice from the Company.




		
	(b)

The Company shall bear any and all costs of the arbitration process, excluding any attorneys’ fees incurred by Employee with regard to such arbitration.


		
	VIII.
	Miscellaneous




		
	(a)

However, Employee agrees that if Employee is a “specified employee” under Section 409A, then any amounts that are considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A will, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, be subject to a 6-month delay provided in Section 409A.   For purposes of Section 409Athe right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

	(g)
	Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and Employee and their respective successors, executors, administrators and heirs.

	(h)
	Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law.  However, if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced as though the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been herein contained.
