 In the event of a termination of this Agreement by the company without Cause, subject to the
conditions set forth below, the Company shall be obligated to: (x) pay to you on the sixtieth (60th) day after your termination, a one-time bonus (computed as set forth below) and (y) beginning with the first payroll period following
the sixtieth (60th) day following your termination, continue to pay you the salary and auto allowance in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices for the period through February 29, 2016 or one (1) year from the
date of such termination, whichever is longer, provided, however, that the initial payment shall include salary and auto allowance amounts for all payroll periods from the date of termination through the date of such initial payment; and
(z) provide that all grants of options and RSU’s made through the effective date of such termination will continue to vest through the period ending on February 29, 2016, as if you had remained employed hereunder through that date.
Any vested options at the time of such termination of your employment, or which later vest as provided in this Section 8(b), may be exercised at any time within the later of two (2) years from your date of termination or ninety
(90) days from the date of vesting, but in no event later than the expiration of the original 10 year term of the option. Such continued payments and vesting of options and RSU’s are expressly conditioned on: (I) your signing a
release in form satisfactory to the Company releasing the Company and all of its officers, directors, employees and agents from any and all claims or liabilities arising out of your employment and/or the termination of employment and such release
becoming effective prior to the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of your termination of employment, and (II) your full compliance with the restrictive covenants contained in
Section 9 hereof. For purpose of the foregoing, the one-time bonus to be paid in accordance with the above shall be the sum of the target amount of your Annual Incentive Bonus set forth in Section 3 hereof, plus the Prorated
Prior Year’s Bonus. For purposes of the preceding sentence the Prorated Prior Year’s Bonus shall be the amount of the annual bonus that you were paid in the year immediately preceding the year in which the termination occurs prorated in
accordance with the number of days from January 1, to the date of such termination in the year in which such termination occurs. Any payments made under this Section 8(b) incident to a termination of employment shall be in lieu of
and in satisfaction of all claims for severance, payment in lieu of notice or other compensation which may otherwise arise upon termination of employment with the Company except for salary and auto allowance earned through the date of termination
and payment of earned but unused vacation in accordance with Company policy then in existence. 
 c. If this Agreement terminates as of
February 29, 2016 or any February 28th (29th in the case of a leap year) thereafter, due to a notice pursuant to Section 1 hereof and Company makes you an offer to continue your employment for a period of at least one year with
a salary, bonus and equity package (i.e., with respect to both value and vesting) which is equal to or greater than your then current salary, equity and Annual Incentive Bonus package (a “Qualified Offer”), it shall not be deemed a
termination by the Company and there shall be no acceleration of the vesting of options or RSU’s or extension of the period for exercise of options after termination from that provided in the Plan and there shall be no payment of severance or
continuation of salary or bonus payments thereafter. In the event of such a termination where the Company has not made a Qualified Offer, then the Company shall be obligated to pay to you on the sixtieth (60th) day after your termination a one-time bonus equal to your then current Annual Incentive Bonus target as specified in Section 3 hereof and beginning with the first payroll period
following the sixtieth (60th) day following your termination, continue to pay you the salary and auto allowance in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices for a period of one (1) year from the date of such termination;
provided, however, that the initial payment shall include salary and auto allowance amounts for all payroll periods from the date of termination through the date of such initial payment. Any continued employment pursuant to a Qualified Offer or any
alternative thereto agreed to by the parties shall be deemed an extension of the term and the provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, except to the extent modified by the Qualified Offer or any alternative thereto
agreed to by the parties.

 8. Restrictive Covenants. You agree to the following restrictive covenants: 

a. Non-Competition. It is understood and agreed that so long as you are employed by the Company or being paid your salary after
termination of employment as provided in this Agreement and for a period of one year thereafter you will not directly or indirectly, provide any service either as an employee, employer, consultant, contractor, agent, principal, partner, substantial
stockholder, corporate officer or director of or for a company or enterprise which competes in any material manner with the then present or planned business activities of the Company. The foregoing notwithstanding, if the Company either
(i) elects to terminate your employment for reasons other than Cause or (ii) offers you a salary and bonus package which is lower than your then current package in connection with an election by the Company to renegotiate the terms of this
Agreement and your employment terminates due to a failure to reach Agreement on a lower salary and bonus package, then in either such event the length of the foregoing covenant against competition shall be reduced to the period following the
termination of your employment which is the sum of: (i) any period of notice provided for in this Agreement for which you are given payment in lieu thereof; (ii) the time of any salary continuation as provided in this Agreement plus the
time equivalent, at your then current salary rate, of any additional payments made to you in connection with such termination; and (iii) three (3) months. For purpose of the foregoing “planned business activities” shall mean a
business initiative materially discussed by the Board of Directors or which is currently under material consideration by the Board of Directors or which has been approved by the Board of Directors. 

b. Non-Solicitation. In addition it is understood and agreed that for the one year period following any termination of your
employment with the Company you will not, without the express prior written permission of the Company, employ under your direct supervision, offer to employ, counsel a third party to employ, or participate in any manner in the recommendation,
recruitment or solicitation of the employment of any person who was an employee of the Company on the date of the termination of your employment or at any time within the 90 days prior thereto. 

c. You agree that a material portion of the covenants of the Company contained in this Agreement and of the compensation, including any bonuses
set forth herein, benefits and training that you will receive hereunder are consideration for the restrictions contained in this Section 9. In the event you violate the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 9, it is
agreed that the time period for which the restrictive covenant so violated is applicable shall be extended for a period of one (1) year from the date you cease such violation. You acknowledge that any violation of the provisions set forth in
this Section 9 may cause irreparable harm to the Company. You, therefore, expressly agree that the Company, in addition to any other rights or remedies which it may possess, shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to
prevent a breach of these restrictions. 
 9. Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights. Your position involves a close and
confidential relationship in which you will be privy to proprietary information of the Company, including without limitation strategic planning, acquisition and investment analysis, research, consulting reports, computer programs and sales,
technical, financial and programming practices and data, all of which you agree will be held in the strictest confidence at all times. All copyright, trademark and/or other intellectual property rights of any kind developed during the term of this
Agreement and relating to or useful in the Company’s business, or to your duties hereunder (“Works”) shall be deemed a “work for hire” and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company, and you shall, to
the extent deemed necessary or desirable by the Company, cooperate and assist the Company in perfecting, filing and recording any such rights. To the extent that any Works are not deemed “work for hire”, Employee hereby assigns all of the
Employee’s rights in such Works to the Company and waives any and all moral rights the Employee may have in such Works. Employee’s obligations under this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

contained herein; and (c) your right to fully perform each and every term and obligation hereunder. You further agree not to do or attempt to do, or suffer to be done, during or after the term hereof, any act in derogation of or inconsistent
with the obligations under this Agreement. 
 11. Miscellaneous. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding
between you and the Company concerning the compensation to be paid to you and all of the terms and conditions of your employment and supersedes all prior agreements concerning same, whether written or oral, except as specifically set forth herein.
Each party agrees to pay reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred by the other if the other party is successful in enforcing its rights under this Agreement in any court action, arbitration or other proceeding. This Agreement may not be
modified or amended except by written instrument duly executed by each of the parties. A waiver by either party of any term or condition of this Agreement or the breach thereof shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other term or
condition of this Agreement or of any subsequent breach of any term or condition hereof. 
 12. Section 409A. 

a. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Agreement, in order to be eligible to receive any termination benefits under this
Agreement that are deemed deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, your termination of employment must constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h) (a
“Separation from Service”). 
 b. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if you are deemed at the time of your
termination of employment with the Company to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then to the extent delayed commencement of any
portion of the termination benefits to which you are entitled under the Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of your termination benefits shall not be
provided to you prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the your Separation from Service with the Company or (ii) the date of your death. Upon the earlier of such dates, all payments
deferred pursuant to this Section shall be paid in a lump sum to you, and any remaining payments due under the Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. The determination of whether you are a “specified employee” for purposes
of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code as of the time of your Separation from Service shall made by the Company in accordance with the terms of Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance thereunder (including without limitation Treas.
Reg. Section 1.409A-1(i) and any successor provision thereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of the Agreement, you and the Company agree that, for purposes of the limitations on nonqualified deferred compensation under
Section 409A of the Code, each payment of compensation under the Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series separate and distinct payments of compensation for purposes of applying the Section 409A of the Code.
