written notice to the Company of the existence of the Good Reason condition within 90 days of the initial existence of such Good Reason
condition. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company will have 30 days during which it may remedy the Good Reason condition and not be
required to provide the payments or benefits described herein as a result of such proposed resignation. If the Good Reason condition
is not remedied within such 30-day period, Employee may resign based on the Good Reason condition specified in the notice effective no
later than 60 days following the expiration of the 30-day cure period.

6.5.
No Further Obligations. The amounts and benefits provided for in this Section shall be in lieu of any termination or severance
payments or benefits for which Employee may be eligible or entitled, now or in the future, under any of the plans, policies, or programs
of Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. In addition, the amounts and benefits provided for in this Section shall be inclusive
of all statutory severance payable or otherwise provided to Employee in relation to Employee’s employment by Company and the termination
of Employee’s employment under this Agreement and compensation for all required notice periods. Except as otherwise expressly set
forth in this Section, from and after the date of such termination, Employee shall (i) have no right to receive any further compensation
(including salary or bonus) hereunder, and, (ii) except to the extent required by law, cease to be covered under or be permitted to actively
participate in any benefits plans or programs.


 


6.6.
Resignation from Officer Positions. If Employee’s employment with Company terminates for any reason, Employee shall be deemed
to have resigned at that time from any and all positions that Employee may have held with Company or any of its affiliates, as designated
by Company, or any other positions that Employee held on behalf of Company. If, for any reason, this Section is deemed insufficient to
effectuate such resignation, following a reasonable opportunity to review, Employee hereby authorizes Company to execute any documents
or instruments consistent herewith which Company may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate such resignation or resignations, and
to act as Employee’s attorney-in-fact. Company will provide Employee with a copy of such documents.

6.7.
Section 409A. Certain payments and benefits payable under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from, or comply with, Section
409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue
Service guidance thereunder. To the extent the payments and benefits under the Agreement are subject to Section 409A of the Code, the

and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder. Each payment and benefit payable under
this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. If the
parties determine that any payments or benefits payable under this Agreement subject to Section 409A of the Code do not comply with Section
409A of the Code, Company and Employee agree to amend this Agreement, or take such other actions as Company and Employee reasonably deem
necessary or appropriate, to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, while preserving benefits that are, in the aggregate,
no less favorable than the benefits as provided to Employee under this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement would cause such

or benefits, and such provision shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
