WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Executive is a key employee of the Company and an integral part of the Companys management; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to provide Executive with certain benefits if Executives employment is terminated involuntarily under certain circumstances; and

WHEREAS, the Agreement is not intended to provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), but rather, is intended to satisfy the short-term deferral exemption under Treasury Regulation (Treas. Reg.) §1.409A-1(b)(4) and/or the separation pay exemption under
Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9); and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the respective agreements of the parties
contained herein, it is agreed as follows:

1. TERM OF AGREEMENT

Unless earlier terminated as hereinafter provided, this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall be for a rolling, two-year
term (the Term) and shall be deemed to extend automatically, without further action by either the Company or Executive, each day for an additional day, such that the remaining term of the Agreement shall continue to be two years;
provided, however, that either party may, by written notice to the other, cause this Agreement to cease to extend automatically and, upon such notice, the Term of this Agreement shall be the two-year period following the date of such
notice, and this Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration of such Term; provided, further, that in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in Section 2.3 below), the Term of this Agreement shall not expire prior to the expiration of
three (3) years after the occurrence of a Change in Control. This Agreement shall not be considered an employment agreement and in no way guarantees Executive the right to continue in the employment of the Company or its affiliates.
Executives employment is considered employment at will, subject to Executives right to receive payments and benefits upon certain terminations of employment as provided below.

As of the date hereof, this Agreement is intended to, and shall, supersede and replace in its entirety any prior severance agreement and the
severance obligations contained in any employment letter agreement between Executive and the Company (or a predecessor to the Company).

which the Company believes that the Executive has not substantially performed his duties, and such failure results in material injury to the Company.

if:

a. the Executive continues to provide services as an employee of the Company at an annual rate that is twenty percent
(20%) or more of the services rendered, on average, during the immediately preceding three, full calendar years of employment (or, if employed less than three years, such lesser period) and the annual remuneration for such services is twenty
percent (20%) or more of the average annual remuneration earned during the final three, full calendar years of employment (or, if less, such lesser period), or

b. the Executive continues to provide services to the Company in a capacity other than as an employee at an annual rate that is fifty percent (50%) or more of the services rendered, on average,
during the immediately preceding three, full calendar years of employment (or if employed less than three years, such lesser period), and the annual remuneration for such services is fifty percent (50%) or more of the average annual
remuneration earned during the final, three full calendar years of employment (or if less, such lesser period).

For purposes of applying this
definition, a reference to the Company shall also be deemed a reference to any affiliate thereof within the contemplation of Code Sections 414(b) and 414(c).

3. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement provides for the payment of
compensation and benefits to Executive in the event his employment (i) is involuntarily terminated by the Company without Cause, or (ii) is terminated by Executive for Good Reason. If Executive is terminated by the Company for Cause, dies,
incurs a Disability or voluntarily terminates employment (other than for Good Reason), this Agreement shall terminate, and Executive shall be entitled to no payments of compensation or benefits pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided that
in such events, Executive will be entitled to whatever benefits are payable pursuant to the terms of any health, life insurance, disability, welfare, retirement, deferred compensation, or other plan or program maintained by the Company.

If, as a result of Executives termination of employment, Executive becomes entitled to compensation and benefits under this
Agreement, under a Change in Control Agreement and/or under a policy or plan provided by the Company, Executive shall be entitled to choose to receive benefits under whichever agreement or plan provides Executive the greater aggregate compensation
and benefits (and not under the other agreement) and there shall be no duplication of benefits. The Executive will be fully bound by all of the terms and conditions of the agreement under which he chooses to receive benefits. Except as provided in
the preceding sentences, the severance pay and benefits provided for in Section 4 herein shall be in lieu of any other severance pay to which the Executive may be entitled under any Company severance plan, program or arrangement for a
termination of employment covered by such circumstances.

|- | ---------------------



---

If Executives employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company during the term of
this Agreement without Cause (and such termination does not arise as a result of Executives death or Disability), or if Executive terminates his employment with the Company for Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to the compensation
and benefits described below, provided that Executive, as described in Section 4.5, executes a valid release of claims in such form as may be required by the Company. In the event Executive is terminated without Cause or Executive terminates
his employment for Good Reason, the Company may, in its discretion and to provide equitable treatment, grant benefits to Executive in addition to those provided below in circumstances where Executive suffers a diminution of projected benefits as a
result of Executives termination prior to attainment of age 65, including without limitation, additional retirement benefits, provided that any such grant of additional benefits shall be consistent with the requirements of Code
Section 409A, and no such grant shall be made which would violate Code Section 409A and the regulations and rulings thereunder.

With the exception of the applicable COBRA premiums provided under Section 4.2 and the outplacement services provided in Section 4.3 of this Agreement, those payments described in this Article 4
that exceed two times the lesser of: (1) the amount of the Executives annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay the Executive received from the Company in the year preceding the year of the Executives termination,
adjusted for any increase in compensation that the Executive would have expected to receive had the Executive not separated from service with the Company, and as defined under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)((iii)(A)(1); or (2) the maximum
amount that may be taken into account for a qualified plan under Code Section 401(a)(17) for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs shall be paid, on a ratable basis, not later than 2 1/2 months after the end of the year in which Date
of Termination occurs.

4.1 Severance Payment. Executive shall continue to receive an amount equal to
 () months of his Base Salary (subject to withholding of all applicable taxes) for the entire Severance Period (as defined in
Section 2.11 above), payable in the same manner as it was being paid on his Date of Termination.

4.2 Health Care and
Life Insurance. The Company shall provide the following health care and life insurance benefits to the Executive:

a. if
the Executive shall elect to continue medical coverage under the Companys group health plan pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (COBRA), the Company shall pay the difference between
the applicable premium for COBRA continuation coverage and the active employee monthly premium cost until the earliest of: (a) the date on which the Executive is eligible to participate in another medical plan, (b) the first day of the
month for which the Executive fails timely to remit the Executives potion of the premium, or (c) the end of the Severance Period. Executive shall be responsible for the timely and proper election of COBRA continuation coverage for
Executive and Executives eligible dependents. Executive will be billed monthly for the continued medical coverage under COBRA and the Executives failure timely to pay Executives portion of the COBRA premium shall terminate the
COBRA coverage and the Companys obligations under this Section 4.2(a); and



|6 | Executives Initials:
|- | ---------------------



---

b. during the Severance Period or until such time as Executive obtains similar benefits as
the result of obtaining other employment, the Company shall pay the monthly premium for term life insurance in an amount equal to that in effect on the Executives Termination Date.

4.3 Outplacement Services. Executive will be provided with customary outplacement services by an outplacement firm selected by the
Company for the Severance Period, provided that the Companys total cost for such services shall not exceed an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of Executives Base Salary.

4.4 Other Benefits. Except as expressly provided herein, all other fringe benefits provided to Executive as an active employee of the
Company shall cease on his Date of Termination, provided that any conversion or extension rights applicable to such benefits shall be made available to Executive at his Date of Termination or when such coverages otherwise cease at the end of the
Severance Period. Except as expressly provided herein, for all other plans sponsored by the Company, the Executives employment shall be treated as terminated on his Date of Termination, and Executives right to benefits shall be
determined under the terms of such plans; provided, however, in no event will Executive be entitled to severance payments or benefits under any other severance plan, policy, program or agreement of the Company, except to the extent Executive is
covered by a Change in Control Agreement.

4.5 Release of Claims. To be entitled to any of the compensation and
benefits described above in this Section 4, Executive shall sign a release of claims substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. No payments shall be made under this Section 4 until such release has been properly executed and
delivered to the Company and until the expiration of the revocation period, if any, provided under the release. If the release is not properly executed by the Executive and delivered to the Company within the reasonable time periods specified in the
release, the Companys obligations under this Section 4 will terminate.

4.6 Nothing in this Agreement is intended
to provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A. All payments hereunder are intended to satisfy the short-term deferral exemption under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4) and/or the separation pay exemption
under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9), as may be amended.

respect to any such non-waivable claims, however, Executive agrees to waive his right (if any) to any monetary or other recovery, including but not limited to reinstatement, should any governmental agency or other third party pursue any claims on
his behalf, either individually or as part of any class or collective action.
