 Exhibit 10.1 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of July 12, 2016, by and between Infor (US),
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Kevin Samuelson (“Executive”), and shall become effective upon commencement of employment (the “Effective Date”) which is expected to commence on or
prior to August 5, 2016. The Company is an indirect, wholly-owned Subsidiary of Infor Enterprise Applications, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Parent”). The Company and Executive agree that unless Executive has commenced
employment with the Company as of August 5, 2016 this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further effect. 
 In consideration of
the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1. Employment. The Company hereby agrees to employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to accept employment with the Company, upon
the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning as of the Effective Date and ending as provided in Section 4 hereof. 

2. Position and Duties. 

(a) During the Employment Period (as defined in Section 4 below), Executive shall serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company. Executive will report to, and be subject to the overall direction and authority of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Executive shall have access to and shall be responsible to the audit committee of the Board of Directors (the
“Board”) of Infor Topco GP, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the general partner of Parent, and the audit committee of Infor, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the direct corporate parent of the Company. Executive shall have the
normal duties, responsibilities, functions and authority of a Chief Financial Officer, and such other matters related to the day-to-day management of the Company as may be delegated to Executive by the Company’s President and Chief Executive
Officer. 
 (b) Executive will devote Executive’s best efforts and full business time and attention to the business and affairs of the
Company. Executive will perform Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company to the best of Executive’s abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, businesslike and efficient manner. 

(c) Executive will be based in or around Park City, Utah, and acknowledges that regular travel to New York, New York, Alpharetta, Georgia and
other global locations will be required in order for Executive to perform Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company and to interact with the other members of the Company’s executive team. 

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” (in either plural or singular form) shall mean any corporation or other
entity (including the Company) of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are, at the time of determination, owned by Parent, directly or
indirectly through one or more Subsidiaries. 







 3. Base Salary, Benefits, Business Expenses, and Bonus. 

(a) During the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary will be $600,000 per annum (the “Base Salary”), which Base
Salary will be subject to increase by the Company as directed by the Board in its discretion and will be payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices for all salaried employees and will be subject
to customary withholding. In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to participate in all of the Company’s employee benefit programs for which all other executive employees of the Company are generally eligible
(excluding any incentive equity compensation, which will be determined on a case-by-case basis) in accordance with the terms and conditions of such programs as the same may be amended, modified or eliminated from time to time. Executive shall be
entitled to such amount of paid time off during each year of the Employment Period as is consistent with the Company’s policy for senior executives. On the Effective Date, Parent, certain of Parent’s Subsidiaries and Executive shall enter
into an Indemnity Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. 
 (b) During the Employment Period, the Company will
reimburse Executive for all reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred by Executive in the course of performing Executive’s duties under this Agreement which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time
with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses. To the extent that any reimbursements or in-kind benefits under this
Agreement constitute “Non-qualified Deferred Compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (i) all such expenses, benefits or other reimbursements under
this Agreement shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive, (ii) any right to such reimbursement or in kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or
exchange for another benefit, and (iii) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be
provided in any other taxable year. 
 (c) During each fiscal year of the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to earn an annual
bonus in the amount of up to $1,600,000, upon the achievement of annual plan goals (the “Target Bonus”). Executive’s annual plan performance targets will be established annually by the Board (it being understood that the Board
will establish performance targets for the period from the Effective Date through the end of the fiscal year that includes the Effective Date based solely on the achievement of cost reduction goals established in the sole discretion of the Board).
In order to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, it is agreed that the bonus (if any) earned under this Section 3(c) shall be paid no later than (but may be paid earlier in accordance with the Company’s usual
practices) March 15th of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the fiscal year to which such bonus relates ended. 

  
 2 








 (d) On or promptly following the Effective Date, Executive and Parent shall enter into a
Management Incentive Unit Subscription Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “MIU Agreement”), pursuant to which Parent shall issue to Executive 750,000 Class C Units of Parent having a participation
threshold based on Parent’s then-current fair market value (the “Equity Grant”). The terms and conditions applicable to the Equity Grant shall be governed by the MIU Agreement. 

4. Term. 
 (a) The
employment period (the “Employment Period”) will commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Expiration Date”) and shall terminate on the Expiration
Date, or will terminate earlier with immediate effect upon the first to occur of: (i) the effective date of Executive’s resignation with or without Good Reason (as defined below); (ii) Executive’s death or Disability (as defined
below); or (iii) the Company’s election to terminate Executive’s employment at any time for Cause (as defined below) or without Cause. Unless either the Company or Executive provides notice of its desire not to renew the Employment
Period at least ninety (90) days prior to the Expiration Date (or any renewal thereof), the Employment Period shall automatically be renewed and extended for an additional twelve (12) month term, and for purposes of this Agreement, the
term “Expiration Date” shall mean the date that is the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date that would have been the Expiration Date but for such automatic renewal and extension. 

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 4, Executive shall not be entitled to any salary, bonuses, employee
benefits or compensation from Parent or its Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder (if any) which would have accrued or
become payable after the termination of the Employment Period (other than vested retirement or other non-forfeitable employee benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of the Employment Period or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of
such termination that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA). Subject to Section 21(e), the Company may offset any amounts the Company owes
Executive pursuant to this Section 4 against (i) any obligation for a liquidated sum then due and owing by Executive to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) any obligations Executive has to Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries pursuant to any promissory note made by Executive in favor of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not the obligations under any such promissory note are then due and owing. The termination of Executive’s employment with
the Company for any reason shall be deemed to automatically remove Executive, without any further action, from any and all offices held by Executive with the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any
office as a member of the board of directors of the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries). Executive agrees to promptly sign and submit notice(s) of resignation or any other documents reasonably requested in order for the Parent
or any of its Subsidiaries to effect the removal of Executive from any offices held by Executive. 
 (c) If the Employment Period is
terminated by the Company without Cause or by Executive with Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to an amount equal to the sum of 18 months of Executive’s then-current Base Salary plus $18,000 (collectively, “Severance”).


  
 3 








 
Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 4, the Severance shall be payable in equal monthly installments over an 18-month period immediately following
Executive’s “separation from service” (as defined under Code Section 409A) in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll cycle for its senior executives. 

(d) If the Employment Period is terminated for any reason other than the circumstances described in Section 4(c), Executive will
be entitled only to receive his Base Salary and other non-forfeitable, vested employee benefits accrued but not yet paid through the date of such termination. 

(e) As a condition to the Company’s obligation to pay Executive Severance, Executive shall execute and deliver to the Company a general
release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “General Release”), such General Release shall have become effective and Executive shall not have revoked or breached the provisions of such release or breached the
provisions of Section 7 below. 
 (f) Executive shall forfeit all rights to Severance (excluding, for avoidance of doubt, any
non-forfeitable employee benefits (such as the opportunity to elect COBRA benefits) mandated by law) unless the General Release is signed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation) within sixty (60) days following the date of
Executive’s termination of employment. If the General Release is executed and delivered and no longer subject to revocation as provided in the preceding sentence, then such Severance shall commence upon the sixtieth (60th) day following
Executive’s termination of employment. The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would have been paid prior thereto had such payments commenced immediately upon Executive’s termination of employment,
and any payments made thereafter shall continue as provided herein. The delayed benefits shall in any event expire at the time such benefits would have expired had such benefits commenced immediately following Executive’s termination of
employment. The Company may provide, in its sole discretion, that Executive may continue to participate in any benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 4(f) during the period of such delay; provided that Executive shall bear the
full cost of such benefits during such delay period. Upon the date such benefits would otherwise commence pursuant to this Section 4(f), the Company may reimburse Executive the Company’s share of the cost of such benefits, to the
extent that such costs would otherwise have been paid by the Company or to the extent that such benefits would otherwise have been provided by the Company at no cost to Executive, in each case had such benefits commenced immediately upon
Executive’s termination of employment. Any remaining benefits shall be reimbursed or provided by the Company in accordance with the schedule and procedures specified herein. 

(g) For purposes of this Agreement as it relates to Executive, “Cause” means: (i) the conviction of a felony or pleading
nolo contendere to a felony charge; (ii) any intentional act of material fraud against Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Company); (iii) willful misconduct that is materially injurious to the financial condition of
Parent and its Subsidiaries (including the Company); (iv) willful and continued failure to perform material duties as reasonably directed by the Board or the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company consistent with this Agreement;
(v) willful unauthorized disclosure of a trade secret or other confidential material information of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Company), that Executive knew or reasonably should have known could reasonably be expected


  
 4 








 
to result in a material adverse effect on any of them; or (vi) a willful act or omission that constitutes a material breach by Executive of this Agreement. Except for actions or
circumstances which, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Board cannot be cured, Executive will have thirty (30) calendar days from Executive’s receipt of notice from the Company setting forth in reasonable detail the circumstances
constituting Cause within which to cure. Furthermore, the Company and Executive understand and agree that good faith decisions of Executive relating to the conduct of the Company’s business or the Company’s business strategy will not
constitute “Cause.” 
 (h) For purposes of this Agreement as it relates to Executive, “Good Reason” means
(i) a material reduction of Executive’s duties and responsibilities or Base Salary or (ii) the Company’s material breach of this Agreement, which in the case of clauses (i) or (ii) above, is not cured within 30 days
after delivery of written notice thereof by Executive to the Company; provided that written notice of Executive’s resignation for Good Reason must be delivered to the Company within 90 days after the date Executive first knew or should
reasonably have known of the occurrence of any such event in order for Executive’s resignation with Good Reason to be effective hereunder. 

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means any incapacity due to a physical or mental illness or injury which
results in Executive’s inability to perform his duties for a total of 60 days during any 12 month period, as determined by the Board or the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in their good faith judgment and (ii) will be
deemed to have occurred on the 60th day of such inability to perform. 
 (j) In the event of Executive’s termination of employment,
Executive will take all necessary and reasonable actions to effect a smooth transition of Executive’s duties to such person or persons as may be designated by the Board or its designee. During the two year period immediately following the
termination of the Employment Period, Executive agrees not to disparage, criticize or otherwise make derogatory statements regarding Parent or its Subsidiaries, their past and present investors, officers or directors. 

5. Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the information, observations and data (including, without
limitation, trade secrets, know-how, research and product plans, customer lists, software, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, specifications, marketing and advertising materials, distribution and sales methods and
systems, sales and profit figures and other technical and business information) concerning the business or affairs of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries obtained by Executive while employed by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or while serving as an
officer or director of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (“Confidential Information”) are the property of Parent or such Subsidiary. Therefore, during the Employment Period and at all times thereafter, Executive agrees that
Executive will not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for Executive’s own purposes, except in the performance of Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder, any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of
the Board, unless and to the extent that the aforementioned matters are or become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act. Executive will deliver to the Company at
the termination of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software 

  
 5 








 
and other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information, Work Product (as defined Section 6 below) or the business of Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries which Executive may then possess or have under Executive’s control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive is permitted to disclose Confidential Information to the extent required to provide truthful testimony before a court or
other governmental authority or to the extent required to respond to a properly issued subpoena of Executive (individually and collectively, “Compelled Disclosure”); provided that Executive provides such prior written notice
to the Company of such Compelled Disclosure to allow the Company to either contest such intended Compelled Disclosure and/or seek an appropriate protective order from a court of competent jurisdiction. 

6. Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges and agrees that all inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods,
designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future
products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive while employed by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (“Work Product”) belong to Parent or such Subsidiary. Executive will promptly disclose such Work
Product to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and
other instruments). 
 7. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation. 

(a) In further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder and any equity compensation to be made available to
Executive pursuant to Parent’s incentive equity plans, Executive acknowledges that in the course of Executive’s employment with the Company Executive has become, and will continue to become, familiar with Parent’s and its
Subsidiaries’ trade secrets and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent and its Subsidiaries and that Executive’s services are and will continue to be of special, unique and extraordinary value to Parent and its Subsidiaries.
Therefore, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and during the 12 month period immediately following the termination of the Employment Period for any reason whatsoever, Executive will not directly or indirectly, for Executive or any
other person or entity, (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any employee thereof, on the other, (2) hire any person who is (or in the case of a former employee, was an employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the 180 day period prior to any
attempted hiring by Executive) an employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (3) induce or attempt to induce any supplier, licensee, licensor, customer or other material business relation of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to cease doing
business with Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such supplier, licensee, licensor, customer or material business relation and Parent or such Subsidiary of Parent, as the case may be (including,
without limitation, making any negative statements or communications about Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) (provided that Executive shall not be considered to have breached his obligations under this clause (3) as a result of any
representatives of any of Executive’s successor employers encouraging customers of Parent or its Subsidiaries to do 

  
 6 








 
business with any such successor employer so long as Executive has no direct involvement in any such customer solicitation (including without limitation, by disclosing or otherwise misusing any
trade secrets or Confidential Information of Parent and its Subsidiaries)) or (4) Participate in any Competitive Business. “Participate” includes any direct or indirect ownership interest in any enterprise or participation in
the management of such enterprise, whether as an officer, director, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, consultant, executive, franchisor, franchisee, creditor, owner or otherwise; provided that the
foregoing activities shall not preclude Executive from the passive ownership (i.e., Executive does not directly or indirectly participate in the business or management of the applicable entity) of less than 2% of the stock of a publicly-held
corporation whose stock is traded on a national securities exchange. “Competitive Business” means any of the businesses set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. Executive agrees that the aforementioned covenant contained in
this Section 7(a) is reasonable with respect to its duration, geographical area and scope. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7(a), the provisions of this Section 7(a) shall not
apply to any activity conducted by Executive following the Employment Period for any business affiliated with or otherwise controlled by Golden Gate Capital or investment funds managed by Golden Gate Capital. 

(b) If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 5, 6 or 7 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated
herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Because
Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to Confidential Information and Work Product, the parties hereto agree that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event a
breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Parent, the Company or their respective successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court for specific performance and/or injunctive or
other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event a court determines that Executive breached or violated this Section 7, the
periods of such restrictive covenants will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. 
 8. Additional
Acknowledgments. Executive expressly agrees and acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7 do not preclude Executive from earning a livelihood, nor do they unreasonably impose limitations on Executive’s
ability to earn a living. In addition, Executive agrees and acknowledges that the potential harm to Parent and its Subsidiaries of the non-enforcement of Sections 5, 6 and 7 outweighs any harm to Executive of their enforcement by injunction
or otherwise. Executive acknowledges that Executive has carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Executive by this Agreement, and is in full accord as to their necessity for the reasonable and
proper protection of Confidential Information. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area. 

9. Other Businesses. As long as Executive is employed by the Company, Executive agrees that Executive will not, except with the express
written consent of the Board, become engaged in, render services for, or permit Executive’s name to be used in connection with any 

  
 7 








 
business other than the business of Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may devote a reasonable amount of his time to civic or
charitable activities and the management of his personal investments so long as such activities do not substantially interfere with the performance of his duties and responsibilities for the Company. 

10. Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement by Executive does not and will not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which Executive is bound
(including any confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement), (ii) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement or non-compete or non-solicitation agreement with any other person or entity; and (iii) upon the execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Executive, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with (or
has had an opportunity to consult with) independent legal counsel regarding Executive’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and that Executive fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein. 

11. Survival. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, notwithstanding any termination of the
Employment Period for any reason. 
 12. Notices. Any notice provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either
personally delivered, delivered by e-mail or facsimile transmission, or mailed by internationally recognized overnight courier prepaid or by first class mail, return receipt requested, to the recipient at the address below indicated:

the parties agree to the waiver of a jury trial in connection with any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or related to this Agreement. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally (a) consents to submit to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York and of 

  
 9 








 
the United States of America located in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York for any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement (and irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees not to commence any such action, suit or proceeding except in such courts, other than in connection with the enforcement of a judgment rendered by any such court, which judgment may be enforced in any court having appropriate
jurisdiction), (b) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in any such courts and (c) waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 19. Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only
with the prior written consent of the Board and Executive, and no course of conduct or failure or delay in enforcing the provisions of this Agreement shall affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement. 

20. Tax Withholdings. All amounts specified herein shall be reduced by all required tax withholdings. 

21. Section 409A Compliance. 

(a) The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Code Section 409A and the regulations and
guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company
be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. 

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment
of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement,
references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” 

(c) Notwithstanding any other payment schedule provided herein to the contrary, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a
“specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then each of the following shall apply: 

(i) With regard to any payment that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation
from service,” such payment shall be made on the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (B) the date of
Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”) to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments delayed pursuant to this Section 21(c)(i) (whether they would have
otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum, and all remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment
dates specified for them herein; and 

  
 10 








 (ii) To the extent that any benefits to be provided during the Delay Period is considered
deferred compensation under Code Section 409A provided on account of a “separation from service,” and such benefits are not otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A, Executive shall pay the cost of such benefits during the Delay
Period, and the Company shall reimburse Executive, to the extent that such costs would otherwise have been paid by the Company or to the extent that such benefits would otherwise have been provided by the Company at no cost to Executive, the
Company’s share of the cost of such benefits upon expiration of the Delay Period, and any remaining benefits shall be reimbursed or provided by the Company in accordance with the procedures specified herein. 

(d) For purposes of Code Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any installment payment pursuant to this Agreement shall be
treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

“Agreement”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the Company and its affiliates and all present and former directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Company and

unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that
without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. I further agree that in the event I should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company, or in the event I should seek to recover against the Company in any
Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. I further agree that I am not aware of any pending charge or complaint of the type described in paragraph 2 as of the
execution of this General Release.

regarding the meaning or effect hereof or as required by law, and I will instruct each of the foregoing not to disclose the same to anyone. 

  

	9.	Any non-disclosure provision in this General Release does not prohibit or restrict me (or my attorney) from responding to any inquiry about this General Release or its underlying facts and circumstances by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD), any other self-regulatory organization or governmental entity. 


 

	10.	I agree to reasonably cooperate with the Company in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory, or judicial proceeding. I understand and agree that my cooperation may include, but not be limited to, making

illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed,
construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
