interest to such Inventions and Developments. Employee assigns and agrees to assign to Company any and all right, title and interest in and to any such
Inventions and Developments whenever requested to do so by Company, at Company’s expense, and Employee agrees to execute any and all applications, assignments or other instruments which Company deems desirable or necessary to protect such
interests, both during and after the term of Employment. 


  

	 	b)	By way of clarification, Paragraph 6(a) shall not apply to any invention for which no equipment, supplies, facilities or Confidential and Trade Secret Information of Company was
used and which was developed entirely on Employee’s own time, unless (i) the invention relates to Stereotaxis Business or to Company’s actual or demonstrably-anticipated research or development, or (ii) the invention results from
any work performed by Employee for Company. 

  

	8)	Confidential Information. Employee agrees to keep secret and confidential, and not to use or disclose to any third parties, except as directly required for Employee to perform
Employee’s employment responsibilities for Company, any of Company’s Confidential Information. Excluded from the scope of these restrictions is Confidential Information that becomes generally available to the public in any manner other
than by a breach of this Agreement by the Employee. 

  

	9)	Company Materials. All notes, records, correspondence, data, hardware, software, documents or the like obtained by or provided to the Company regarding Stereotaxis Business, or

and exclusive property of the Company, and shall be surrendered to the Company on request or upon Employee termination for any reason. During Employee’s employment, Employee will not copy, reproduce or otherwise duplicate, record, abstract,
summarize or otherwise use, any Company Materials except as expressly permitted or required for the proper performance of Employee’s duties on behalf of the Company. 

  

	10)	Attention to Duties; Conflict of Interest. 

  

	 	a)	Employee represents that the execution and delivery of the Agreement and Employee’s employment with Company do not violate any previous employment agreement or other
contractual obligation of Employee, and there are no outstanding commitments or agreements inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or the services to be rendered to Stereotaxis. 

  

	 	b)	While employed by the Company, Employee shall devote Employee’s full business time, energy and abilities exclusively to the business and interests of Stereotaxis and shall not,
without the Company’s prior written consent, obtain any direct or indirect interests in or relationships with any organization that might affect the objectivity and independence of the Employee’s judgment or conduct in carrying out duties
and responsibilities to the Company under this Agreement or that would interfere with the performance of Employee’s duties under this Agreement. However, nothing herein shall preclude employee from pursuing Employee’s personal, financial
and legal affairs, or, subject to the prior written consent of the Company, (i) serving on any corporate or governmental board of directors, (ii) serving on the board of, or working for, any charitable, not-for-profit or community

would otherwise conflict or interfere with the performance of Employee’s duties and responsibilities hereunder, either directly or indirectly.

	11)	Non-Competition, Non-solicitation. Employee agrees that during the Restricted Period, and regardless of how Employee’s termination occurs and regardless of whether it is with
or without Cause, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly (whether individually or as owner, partner, consultant, employee or otherwise): 

  

	 	a)	engage in, assist or have an interest in, enter the employment of, or act as an agent, advisor or consultant for, any person or entity that then is or intends to be in competition
with the Company with respect to Stereotaxis Business. A person or entity will be deemed “in competition” if it is involved in research, development, manufacture, supplying or sale of a product, process, apparatus, service or development
which is competitive with a product, process, apparatus, service or development on which Employee worked, or with respect to which Employee has or had access to Confidential Information during the Employee’s employment.


  

	 	b)	solicit, divert, or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert or take away from the Company the business of any customers for the purpose of selling or providing to such customer any
product or service which is included in the Stereotaxis Business as defined herein; 

  

	 	c)	knowingly to cause or attempt to cause any customer, vendor, or other third party collaborating with the Company to terminate or reduce its existing relationship with the Company;


  

	 	d)	knowingly solicit, induce, or hire, or attempt to solicit, induce, or hire, any employee, consultant, or distributor of the Company to leave the employ of the Company and/or to work
for any competitor of the Company. 

  

	12)	Notification; Non-disparagement. Employee shall notify any prospective employer of the existence and terms of this Agreement, prior to acceptance of employment outside of the
Company. Company may inform any person or entity subsequently employing, or evidencing an intention to employ Employee of the nature of the information Company asserts to be Confidential Information, and may inform that person or entity of the
existence of this Agreement, the terms hereof, and provide to that person or entity a copy of these terms and conditions. Neither party shall in any way disparage the other, including current or former officers, directors and employees of the
Company, and neither party shall make or solicit any comments, statements or the like to the media or to others, including their agents or representatives, that may be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to the good name or business
reputation of the other party. 

  

	13)	Acknowledgments Regarding Restrictions. Employee acknowledges, understands, and agrees that: 

  

	 	a)	The provisions relating to confidentiality, conflicts of interest, non-competition, and their post-employment continuation are material consideration for the compensation and other
benefits of Employee’s employment by Company, and without Employee’s agreement to these provisions and restrictions, Employee would not be employed by the Company. 

  

	 	b)	Employee agrees that the covenants relating to non-competition, non-solicitation, and disparagement in this Agreement are appropriate and fair and necessary to avoid conflicts of
interest and commitment and to protect the Company’s legitimate interests in its Confidential Information, goodwill, and relationships. 

  

	 	c)	The restrictions contained herein are not limited geographically in view of Company’s worldwide operations and the nature of the Confidential Information, customers and /or
other business relationships to which Employee will have access. These restrictions may preclude, for a time, Employee’s employment with competitors of Company. Company agrees, however, that if it is commercially reasonable, after the
Employee’s employment and within the Restricted Period it may provide written permission for Employee to provide services to or be employed by firms that are engaged in Stereotaxis Business, so long as such services or employment are provided
to divisions, departments, or affiliates that are not engaged in Stereotaxis Business within those firms. Such permission shall not be deemed to waive or diminish the prohibitions on disclosure or use of Confidential Information or the covenants of
non-competition in this Agreement. 

  

 Stx.Exec AmdRst rev. 0809

	 	d)	None of these restrictions is intended to prevent the Employee from owning up to one percent (1%) of the publicly traded stock of any company during the Restricted Period.


  

	 	e)	In the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of Employee’s duties and obligations under Sections 7-12, Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other legal or
equitable remedies (including any right to damages), to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief restraining such breach or threatened breach. Employee expressly acknowledges that the harm that might result to Company’s business
as a result of any noncompliance by Employee with any of the provisions of these Sections would be largely irreparable, and specifically agrees that if there is a question as to the enforceability of any of the provisions of these Sections, Employee
will not engage in conduct alleged to be inconsistent with or contrary to such Sections before the question has been resolved by a final judgment of an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction. 

  

	 	f)	To ensure Employee’s understanding of and compliance with the obligations under this Agreement, Employee agrees to engage in an exit interview with the Company at the
Company’s expense prior to Employee’s last day of employment, at a time and place or by telephone, as designated by the Company, and that Employee may be required to confirm that Employee will comply with Employee’s post termination
obligations. 

  

	14)	Non-Waiver of Rights. Company’s failure at any time to enforce or require performance by Employee of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be
a waiver of such provisions or to affect either the validity of this Agreement, or any part hereof, or the right of Company thereafter to enforce each and every provision in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

  

	15)	Continuation of Salary and Benefits. 

  

	 	a)	Continuation upon Certain Termination Events. If the Employee’s employment is terminated (i) by the Company without Cause; or (ii) within twelve months after a Change
of Control of the Company under which the Company is not the surviving entity and the Employee was not offered a position and salary in the surviving entity comparable to the position and salary held immediately prior to the Change of Control, then
subject to the conditions below, Employee will receive during the twelve (12) month period immediately following the date of termination under (i) or (ii) a guarantee of salary continuation equal to Employee’s monthly base salary on
the date of termination, as well as continuation of medical and dental benefits pursuant to Company policies (including any requirement for employee premium contributions) in effect during the said period. Salary continuation payments shall be made
in accordance with the regularly scheduled payroll frequency in effect on the date of Employee’s termination of employment. Each installment payment required under this Section shall be considered a separate payment under Internal Revenue Code
Section 409A. 

  

	 	b)	Conditions. The continuation of salary and benefits under this Section 15 is conditioned on Employee’s (i) compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
including any post-termination restrictions and covenants, and (ii) execution of a release of any and all claims against the Company and its officers, directors, and employees arising from or related to the Employee’s employment. Salary
continuation payments in the event of termination by the Company without Cause under (a) above will be offset by the amount of any compensation Employee receives during the Severance Period from the Company or another employer or as an
independent contractor. Medical and dental benefits continued in the event of termination under (a) or (b) will terminate upon receipt of comparable benefits from another employer. The release required pursuant to subsection
(ii) above shall be substantially similar with respect to all material terms and conditions to the form attached hereto as Attachment A, and must be executed and returned to the Company within forty fine (45) days of Employee’s
termination of employment to avoid forfeiture by Employee of the salary continuation payments described in Section 15(a) above. 

  

 Stx.Exec AmdRst rev. 0809

	 	c)	Key Employee Six Month Deferral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 15, if any such payments set forth in paragraph 15(a) are classified as nonqualified
deferred compensation, as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder, such payments subject to Section 409A shall be deferred until at least six (6) month after the date of termination. Any payment of
nonqualified deferred compensation otherwise due in such six (6) month period shall be suspended and become payable in a lump sum at the end of such six (6) month period, and shall not otherwise be subject to any offset or reduction
pursuant to paragraph 15(b) above solely because of said deferral. However, any payments not subject to Section 409A shall be immediately payable pursuant to Section 15(a) and will not be suspended or deferred. 

  

	 	d)	Effect on Employment at Will. By way of clarification, Employee is not entitled to salary or benefits continuation if Employee terminates the employment except as specified in this
Paragraph 15, and nothing in this Section is intended to affect the rights of either party to terminate the employment at any time with or without Cause. 

  


	16)	Binding Arbitration. 

  

	 	a)	Any dispute, claim or controversy with respect to Employee’s employment or its termination (whether the termination of employment is voluntary or involuntary) shall be settled
exclusively (except as set out in Section 13(e) above) by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Either party may request arbitration in writing after good faith efforts to resolve
the matter internally, and the parties shall select an arbitrator under the AAA rules. Employee and Stereotaxis each waive their constitutional rights to have such matters determined by a jury, explicitly and definitely prefer arbitration to
recourse to the courts, and have prescribed arbitration as their sole and exclusive method of binding dispute resolution because, among other reasons, it is quicker, less expensive, and less formal than litigation in court. 


 

	 	b)	Except as set out in Section 18 below, the arbitrator shall not have the authority to modify, add to or eliminate any provision of this Agreement. The arbitration shall be held
in St. Louis, Missouri. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties. Judgment upon the arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court, state or federal, having jurisdiction over the parties. If a written request for
arbitration is not made within one (1) year of the date of the termination of employment or, in the case of disputes not resolved internally, the date of the final decision reached by the Human Resources Department, all remedies regarding such
dispute, claim or controversy shall be waived. 

  

	 	c)	In the event of any litigation or arbitration or other proceeding by which one party seeks to enforce its rights or seeks a declaration of any rights or obligations under this
Agreement, aparty that is finally determined to have breached this Agreement or the party against which injunctive relief is awarded shall pay the other party its reasonable attorney fees, costs, and expenses incurred.


  

	17)	Choice of Forum and Governing Law. Employee acknowledges and agrees that substantial and material aspects of the employment under this Agreement take place in St. Louis, Missouri
and that the important decisions, training, planning and activities hereunder are focused in St. Louis, Missouri. In light of Company’s substantial contacts with the State of Missouri, the parties’ interests in ensuring that disputes
regarding the interpretation, validity and enforceability of this Agreement are resolved on a uniform basis, and Company’s execution of, and the making of this Agreement in Missouri, the parties agree that: (a) any litigation involving any
noncompliance with or breach of the Agreement, or regarding the interpretation, validity and/or enforceability of the Agreement, shall be filed and conducted exclusively in the state or federal courts in St. Louis County, Missouri; and (b) the
Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Missouri.

	18)	Severability. If any provision(s) of this Agreement are or become invalid, are ruled illegal or are deemed unenforceable by any tribunal of competent jurisdiction, it shall be
modified and enforced to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law. It is the intention of the Parties that the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected, provided that a Party’s rights under this Agreement are not materially
affected, in which case the Parties covenant and agree to revise any such provision or the Agreement in good faith in order to provide a term, covenant, condition or application of this Agreement that most closely complies with the intent of the
Parties under the Agreement as originally executed. 

  

	19)	Assignment. The Company may assign this Agreement and Employee’s employment to any entity to which the operations it currently manages are transferred, whether through
reorganization, merger, sale or any other transfer. As a contract for personal services, neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder shall be assigned by Employee. 

  

	20)	Construction. The Parties to this Agreement represent and acknowledge that in executing this Agreement they do not rely and have not relied upon any representation or statement made
by the other party or the other party’s agents, attorneys or representatives regarding the subject matter, basis, or effect of this Agreement or otherwise, other than those specifically stated in this written Agreement. This Agreement shall be
interpreted in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms and not strictly for or against any party. This Agreement shall be construed as if each party was its author and each party hereby adopts the language of this Agreement as if it were his,
her or its own. Section headings are provided in this Agreement for convenience only and shall not be deemed to substantively affect the content of such sections. In addition, in light of the post-employment compensation to be paid to Employee under
Section 15 of this Agreement if Employee is terminated without Cause, Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee’s post-employment obligations under Section 11 are reasonable and should be fully enforceable regardless of why or
how his employment may end, and regardless of the reason(s) why and/or whether or not such termination of employment is with or without Cause. 

  

	21)	Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Offer Letter and these Terms and Conditions and any Exhibits attached hereto, sets forth all the covenants, promises, agreements,
representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and terminates all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties. There are no covenants, promises,
agreements, representations, conditions or understandings, either oral or written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof other than as set forth herein and therein. No amendment, change or addition to this Agreement shall be
binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by the Employee and an authorized representative of the Company. This Agreement cannot be changed orally or by any conduct of either Employee or the Company or any course of dealings
between Employee, or another person and the Company.
