those currently held or assigned, consistent with Executive’s general areas of professional expertise and with no decrease in annual base compensation, whether with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, such circumstances shall not
constitute termination of Executive’s Employment or this Agreement. 
 3.2 Executive’s Resignation. Executive may
terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment upon thirty (30) days’ advance Notice of Termination. Upon termination by Executive pursuant to this Section 3.2, Company shall pay Executive within thirty days after

Executive’s employment without Cause upon thirty (30) days’ advance Notice of Termination; provided, however, that the Company may in its sole discretion make termination of the Agreement and Executive’s employment effective
immediately upon Notice of Termination, in which case, in addition to the payments otherwise required by this Section 3.4, Executive shall be paid his Base Salary through a notice period of thirty (30) days. The Company’s failure to
at any time renew the term of this Agreement under Section 2.3 shall be deemed a termination of this Agreement and Executive’s employment without Cause. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause pursuant to this
Section 3.4, Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Obligations and, subject to satisfaction of the Release of Claims requirement specified in Section 3.13 below, shall be entitled to the benefits specified under either
subparagraph (i) or subparagraph (ii) below: 
 (i) No Change in Control Has Occurred. If there has been no

A. For a period of twelve (12) months following the effective date of Executive’s termination, the Company shall
continue to pay Executive his Base Salary at the rate in effect just prior to the time a Notice of Termination is delivered, payable according to the Company’s normal payroll practices; provided, however, that the payments for the first six
months following Executive’s termination in excess of the lesser of (i) two times the Executive’s Base Salary, and (ii) $490,000 (or such greater amount as may then be permitted under Treasury Regulation 409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A) or

B. If Executive elects to continue his Company-provided group health benefits at the level in effect as of the date of
termination under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Company shall pay the premiums for Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage (for Executive and Executive’s dependents, if applicable) for
a period of up to eighteen (18) months; and 
 C. Company shall make available to Executive for a period of twelve
(12) months after termination, outplacement services provided that (i) the outplacement program and the provider of which shall be selected by Company and (ii) the outplacement services are performed within such 12-month period. 

(ii) Change in Control Has Occurred. If Executive’s termination pursuant to this Section 3.4 occurs within twenty-four
(24) months following a Change in Control or if Executive is terminated pursuant to this Section 3.4 and a Change in Control occurs within ninety (90) days following Executive’s termination: 

A. Each month for a period of twelve (12) months following the effective date of Executive’s termination, the Company
shall continue to pay Executive: (i) Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect just prior to the time a Notice of Termination is delivered plus (ii) one-twelfth of 100% of Executive’s targeted annual bonus (or other variable

(18) months; 
 C. Company shall make available to Executive for a period of twelve (12) months after termination,

there is a Change in Control within 90 days after Executive’s employment was terminated by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.4 and stock options or stock grants were terminated or forfeited to the Company upon Executive’s
employment termination pursuant to their terms (because the Change in Control had not occurred at the time of employment termination), the Company shall pay Executive the value of the terminated or forfeited options or shares based upon the

Control all unvested restricted shares of Company stock held by Executive subject to performance-based vesting provisions shall hereby be amended to eliminate such performance-based vesting provisions and substitute time-based vesting provisions on
the basis that such unvested shares shall vest ratably over the period commencing on the date of the Change of Control and ending on the last day of the measuring period to be used for determining whether the performance criteria would have been
satisfied.  
 3.9 No Obligation of Executive to Mitigate. The amount of any payment provided for in this Article 3 shall
not be reduced, offset or subject to recovery by the Company by reason of any compensation earned by Executive as the result of employment by another employer after the date of termination, or otherwise. 







 3.10 Entire Termination Payment. The compensation provided for in this Article 3
shall constitute Executive’s sole remedy for termination or breach of this Agreement. Under no circumstances shall Executive be entitled to severance pay and related benefits under more than one section of this Agreement.

(i) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any payment, distribution, transfer, benefit or
other event with respect to the Company or a successor or direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of the Company (or any successor or affiliate of any of them, and including any benefit plan of any of them), arising in connection with an event
described in Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), occurring after the Effective Date, to or for the benefit of Executive or Executive’s dependents, heirs or beneficiaries (whether such payment,
distribution, transfer, benefit or other event occurs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Article 3) (each a “Payment” and collectively the
“Payments”) is, was or will be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code and any successor provision or any comparable provision of state or local income tax law (collectively “Section 4999”), then
Executive will receive the greater of (A) the Payments less any applicable excise tax or (B) the amount payable if the Company reduces the Payments (but not below zero) so that the maximum amount of the Payments shall be
One Dollar ($1) less than the amount that would cause the Payments to be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999. The Company shall reduce or eliminate the Payments by first reducing or eliminating any cash severance
benefits, then reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of stock options, then reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of restricted stock, then reducing or eliminating any other remaining Payments. The preceding provisions of this
Section 3.12 shall take precedence over the provisions of any other plan, arrangement or agreement governing Executive’s rights and entitlements to any benefits or compensation. 

(ii) The determination that a Payment is subject to an excise tax (and the amount of such tax) or a determination of the amount by which the
Payments must be reduced to reduce the amount of Payments to One Dollar ($1) less than the amount that would cause the Payments to be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 (the “Reduction Amount”) shall be made in writing
by a certified public accounting firm selected by the Company. 
 3.13 Release of Claims Requirement. As a condition of receiving
severance pay and benefits pursuant to this Article 3, at the time of termination and within twenty-one (21) days of Company delivering the release of claims to Executive, Executive shall enter into and not revoke a release of all claims
against the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A updated to reflect such changes in the law as Company may deem necessary or advisable. The Company shall deliver the release of claims to Executive within 30 days after
termination. 







 3.14 Non-disparagement. Neither party will make any malicious, disparaging or false
remarks about the other or their respective officers, directors, employees, heirs or assigns. The parties further agree to refrain from making any negative statements regarding the other to any third parties or any statements which
