Definitive Agreement with respect to a Change in Control that constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5), (ii) following the Company’s entry into such Definitive

active employment plus the target bonus under Section 6 (without pro ration); the severance amount shall be paid in a single sum on the first business day of the month following the Termination Date;

insurance plans if Executive’s employment with the Company had not terminated; and 

  

	 	(4)	pay to Executive all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by Executive during his lifetime as a result of such termination of employment (including all fees and expenses, if any, incurred by Executive in
contesting or disputing any such termination or in seeking to obtain to enforce any right or benefit provided to Executive by this Agreement whether by arbitration or otherwise). The foregoing limitation shall not preclude Executive’s estate or
heirs from recovering reasonable legal fees (and related expenses) in accordance with the provisions hereof in the event that Executive’s estate or heirs initiate or continue any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this
Agreement after Executive’s death; provided, however, that such reasonable legal fees (and related expenses) are incurred within the six (6)-year period following the date of Executive’s death. The reimbursement shall be made within ninety
(90) days following the resolution of such contest or dispute (whether or not appealed), but not later than the end of the calendar year following the year in which the contest or dispute is resolved, to the extent the Company receives

	 	(f)	Payment Delay. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment the Company’s stock is publicly traded and Executive is a “specified
employee” (as such term is defined in section 409A(2)(B)(i) of the Code and its corresponding regulations), then all cash payments to Executive pursuant to this Section 12 that are deemed as deferred compensation subject to the
requirements of section 409A of the Code shall not be paid to Executive until as soon as administratively practicable following the expiration of the six month period following the date of Executive’s Termination Date, but not later than the
first Company payroll date that occurs after the end of such six month period. Any postponed amounts shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s Date of
Termination, and any amounts payable to Executive after the expiration of such six (6) month period under this Agreement shall continue to be paid to Executive in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Executive dies during such
six-month period and prior to the payment of the postponed cash amounts hereunder, the amounts withheld on account of section 409A of the Code shall be paid to the personal representative of Executive’s estate within thirty (30) days after
the date of Executive’s death. If any of the cash payments payable pursuant to this Section 12 are deferred due to such requirements, there shall be added to such payments interest during the deferral period at a rate, per annum, equal to
the applicable federal short-term deferral rate (compounded monthly) in effect under section 1274(d) of the Code on Executive’s Termination Date. 

  

	 	(g)	Transfer of Mobile Phone Number. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment, the Company will release Executive’s mobile phone number and shall cooperate in transferring such phone number to a
mobile phone and service designated by Executive. 

 13. Withholding. The Company shall have the right to withhold from
all payments made pursuant to this Agreement any federal, state, or local taxes and such other amounts as may be required by law to be withheld from such payments. 

14. Assignability. The Company may assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any
entity to which the Company may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, if in any such case said entity shall expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Company hereunder as fully as if it had been originally made a party hereto.
The Company may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations hereunder. This Agreement is personal to Executive and his rights and duties hereunder shall not be assigned except as expressly agreed to in writing by the Company.

 15. Death of Executive. Any amounts due Executive under this Agreement (not including any
Base Salary not yet earned by Executive) unpaid as of the date of Executive’s death shall be paid to Executive’s surviving spouse, or if none, to the duly appointed personal representative of his estate. 

16. Restrictive Covenants.

the Company, directly or indirectly: (I) engage, anywhere within the geographical areas in which the Company is conducting business operations or providing services as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment, in the tissue

or entity of, any person who is an employee of the Company; (V) seek to contract with or engage (in such a way as to adversely affect or interfere with the business of the Company) any person or entity who has been contracted with or engaged to
manufacture, assemble, supply or deliver products, goods, materials or services to the Company; or (VI) engage in or participate in any effort or act to induce any of the customers, associates, consultants, or employees of the Company to take any
action which might be disadvantageous to the Company; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit Executive and his affiliates from owning, as passive investors, in the aggregate not more than 5% of the outstanding publicly traded stock of
any corporation so engaged and provided, further, however, that nothing set forth in this Section 16(a) shall prohibit Executive from becoming an employee or agent of, or consultant to, any entity that is engaged in the Business so long as
Executive does not engage in any activities in the Business in any capacity for said entity. 


  
 11 









	 	(b)	Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges a duty of confidentiality owed to the Company and shall not, at any time during or after his employment by the Company, retain in writing, use, divulge, furnish, or make
accessible to anyone, without the express authorization of the Board, any trade secret, private or confidential information or knowledge of the Company obtained or acquired by him while so employed. All computer software, business cards, telephone
lists, customer lists, price lists, contract forms, catalogs, the Company books, records, files and know-how acquired while an employee of the Company are acknowledged to be the property of the Company and shall not be duplicated, removed from the
Company’s possession or premises or made use of other than in pursuit of the Company’s business or as may otherwise be required by law or any legal process, or as is necessary in connection with any adversarial proceeding against the
Company and, upon termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall deliver to the Company all copies thereof which are then in his possession or under his control. No information shall be treated as “confidential information” if
it is generally available public knowledge at the time of disclosure or use by Executive. 

  

	 	(c)	Inventions and Improvements. Executive shall promptly communicate to the Company all ideas, discoveries and inventions which are or may be useful to the Company or its business. Executive acknowledges that all
such ideas, discoveries, inventions, and improvements which heretofore have been or are hereafter made, conceived, or reduced to practice by him at any time during his employment with the Company heretofore or hereafter gained by him at any time
during his employment with the Company are the property of the Company, and Executive hereby irrevocably assigns all such ideas, discoveries, inventions and improvements to the Company for its sole use and benefit, without additional compensation.
The provisions of this Section 16(c) shall apply whether such ideas, discoveries, inventions, or improvements were or are conceived, made or gained by him alone or with others, whether during or after usual working hours, whether on or off the
job, whether applicable to matters directly or indirectly related to the Company’s business interests (including potential business interests), and whether or not within the specific realm of his duties. Executive shall, upon request of the
Company, but at no expense to Executive, at any time during or after his employment with the Company, sign all instruments and documents reasonably requested by the Company and otherwise cooperate with the Company to protect its right to such ideas,
discoveries, inventions, or improvements including applying for, obtaining and enforcing patents and copyrights thereon in such countries as the Company shall determine. 


  
 12 









	 	(d)	Breach of Covenant. Executive expressly acknowledges that damages alone will be an inadequate remedy for any breach or violation of any of the provisions of this Section 16 and that the Company, in addition
to all other remedies, shall be entitled as a matter of right to equitable relief, including injunctions and specific performance, in any court of competent jurisdiction. If any of the provisions of this Section 16 are held to be in any respect
unenforceable, then they shall be deemed to extend only over the maximum period of time, geographic area, or range of activities as to which they may be enforceable. 


17. Miscellaneous. 
  

	 	(a)	Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is signed by Executive and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board to sign on the Company’s behalf.


  

	 	(b)	Section 409A. 

  

	 	(1)	This Agreement shall be interpreted to avoid any penalty sanctions under section 409A of the Code. If any payment or benefit cannot be provided or made at the time specified herein without incurring sanctions under
section 409A, then such benefit or payment shall be provided in full at the earliest time thereafter when such sanctions will not be imposed. All payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a
“separation from service” under section 409A of the Code. For purposes of section 409A of the Code, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate
the calendar year of payment. 

  

	 	(2)	All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for
expenses incurred during Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement
is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. If expenses are incurred in connection with litigation, any reimbursements under the Agreement shall be paid not later than the end of the calendar year following the year in which the
litigation is resolved. 


  
 13 









	 	(c)	Nature of Obligations. Nothing contained herein shall create or require the Company to create a trust of any kind to fund any benefits which may be payable hereunder, and to the extent that Executive acquires a
right to receive benefits from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

  

	 	(d)	Executive Representations and Acknowledgements.
