Appendix A to the Incentive Subscription Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”) and that such Restrictive Covenants are incorporated herein by reference. Executive agrees and understands that should Executive breach any of
the Restrictive Covenants, Executive shall not be entitled to any of the Separation Benefits, the Rollover SARs, the First Earnout Right or the Restricted Stock. 

6. No Admission. Neither this Agreement nor anything in this Agreement shall be construed to be or shall be admissible in any proceeding
as evidence of an admission by the Company or Executive of any violation of the Company’s policies or procedures, or state or federal laws or regulations. This Agreement may be introduced, however, in any proceeding to enforce the Agreement.
Such introduction shall be pursuant to an order protecting its confidentiality, except insofar as a court declines to enter any such order. 

7. Waiver; Effective Date; Acknowledgments. Executive expressly acknowledges that: 

(a) The Company and Executive agree that this Agreement will become effective and enforceable on the date this Agreement is executed by
Executive (the “Effective Date”), and that no obligations upon the Company Group set forth in Section 2(b) or Section 3(b) of this Agreement shall be operative or binding upon it until the Release Effective Date. For the

the Company Group, including by answering written questions and by appearing for interviews. 
 9. Employment Relationship. Executive
acknowledges that any employment relationship between Executive and the Company Group shall terminate on the Termination Date, that thereafter they have no further employment relationship except as may arise out of this Agreement and that Executive
waives any right or claim to reinstatement as an employee of the Company Group and will not seek employment in the future with the Company Group, unless by mutual consent. Nothing herein shall be construed as voiding Executive’s entitlement to
post-

 CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 
termination payments or benefits pursuant to Section 2(b) or Section 3(b) above or the Company Group’s rights pursuant to the Employment Agreement or the Equity Documents.
Executive agrees that, following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company Group, Executive will cooperate with any reasonable request the Company may make for information or assistance with respect to any matter involving
Executive during Executive’s period of employment. 
 10. Indemnity and Injunctive Relief. 

(a) Executive agrees to indemnify and hold the Company Group harmless from and against any loss, cost, damage or claim suffered by the Company
Group, including attorneys’ fees, resulting from a material breach by Executive of any material term of this Agreement, provided that before the Company Group exercises this remedy, it shall provide written notice to Executive and a reasonable
opportunity for his to cure any breach (where such a breach is capable of cure). Executive further understands and agrees that money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement, and that in addition to all other remedies,
the Company Group shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach. Executive agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief and agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in
connection with such remedy, as permitted by law. 
 (b) If Executive fails to comply with any of the terms of this Agreement or if Executive
revokes the Release within the seven (7) day revocation period, the Company Group may, in addition to any other remedies it may have, reclaim any amounts paid to Executive under the provisions of this Agreement or terminate any benefits or
payments that are later due under this Agreement, without waiving the releases provided in it. Executive agrees that this Agreement can be specifically enforced in court and can be cited as evidence in legal proceedings alleging breach of the
Agreement. 
 11. Executive Representations. Executive specifically represents, warrants, and confirms that Executive: 

(a) has not filed, and is not aware of the basis of, any claims, complaints, or actions of any kind against the Company Group with any court of
law, or local, state, or federal government or agency; 
 (b) has been properly paid for all hours worked for the Company Group, has received
all commissions, bonuses, and other compensation due to Executive; and 
 (c) has not engaged in any unlawful conduct relating to the
business of the Company Group. 
 12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the agreements incorporated by reference in
Section 5 of this Agreement related to the Restrictive Covenants, the Release, the Equity Documents, the Lockup Agreement, and the Employment Agreement set forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject
matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous oral and written discussions, agreements and understandings of any kind or nature, including, but not limited to, the Retention Letter. This Agreement, including the Release, shall inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
