                 [and                 ] of FINV or in such other position or positions as
the Employer may designate from time to time, and Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer of FINV.

 2.4 Other
Interests. Executive agrees, during the period of Executive’s employment by the Employer, to devote Executive’s full business time and best efforts to the business and affairs of the Employer, FINV, and any subsidiary or affiliate
of either entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that Executive may (a) engage in and manage Executive’s passive personal investments and (b) engage in charitable and civic activities; provided,
however, that such activities shall be permitted so long as such activities do not conflict with the business and affairs of the Employer or interfere with Executive’s performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. 

2.5 Duty of Loyalty. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive owes a fiduciary duty of loyalty, fidelity, and
allegiance to act in the best interests of the Employer and to do no act that would materially injure the business, interests, or reputation of the Employer or any of its affiliates. In keeping with these duties, Executive shall make full disclosure
to the Employer of all business opportunities pertaining to the Employer’s business and shall not appropriate for Executive’s own benefit business opportunities concerning the subject matter of the fiduciary relationship. 

ARTICLE III 

TERM AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT  
 3.1 Term. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to other provisions hereof, the Employer agrees to employ Executive hereunder for the period beginning on the Effective Date


  
 4 









 
and ending on                 , 2016 (the “Initial Expiration Date”); provided, however,
that beginning on the Initial Expiration Date, and on each anniversary of the Initial Expiration Date thereafter, if Executive’s employment under this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.3, then said term of
employment shall automatically be extended for an additional one-year period unless on or before the date that is 60 days prior to the first day of any such extension period, either party shall give written notice to the other that no such automatic
extension shall occur, in which case the term of employment shall terminate on the Initial Expiration Date or the anniversary of the Initial Expiration Date immediately following the giving of such notice, as applicable. 

3.2 Employer’s Right to Terminate. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1, the Employer may terminate
Executive’s employment under this Agreement at any time for any of the following reasons by providing Executive with a Notice of Termination: 
 (a) upon Executive being unable to perform Executive’s duties or fulfill Executive’s obligations under this Agreement by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that
can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than three months as determined by the Employer and certified in writing by a competent medical physician selected by the Employer
(“Disability”); or 
 (b) Executive’s death; or 

(c) for Cause; or 
 (d) for any other reason whatsoever or for no reason at all, in the sole discretion of the Employer. 
 3.3 Executive’s Right to Terminate. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1, Executive shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement for
Good Reason or for any other reason whatsoever or for no reason at all, in the sole discretion of Executive, by providing the Employer with a Notice of Termination. In the case of a termination of employment by Executive pursuant to this
Section 3.3, the Date of Termination specified in the Notice of Termination shall not be less than 15 nor more than 60 days, respectively, from the date such Notice of Termination is given, and the Employer may require a Date of Termination
earlier than that specified in the Notice of Termination (and, if such earlier Date of Termination is so required, it shall not change the basis for Executive’s termination nor be construed or interpreted as a termination of employment pursuant
to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2). 
 3.4 Deemed Resignations. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the
Employer and Executive prior to the termination of Executive’s employment, any termination of Executive’s employment shall constitute (a) an automatic resignation of Executive as an officer of the Employer and each affiliate of the
Employer, (b) an automatic resignation of Executive from the Board (if applicable) and from the board of directors of any affiliate of the Employer, and from the board of directors or similar governing body of any corporation, limited liability
entity, or other entity in which the Employer or any affiliate holds an equity interest and with respect to which board or similar governing body Executive serves as the Employer’s or such affiliate’s designee or other representative, and
(c) an automatic revocation of any power of attorney granted to Executive for the benefit of Employer, FINV, or any of their respective affiliates.

 3.5 Meaning of Termination of Employment. For all purposes of this Agreement,
Executive shall be considered to have terminated employment with the Employer when Executive incurs a “separation from service” with the Employer within the meaning of section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and applicable administrative
guidance issued thereunder. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS  
 4.1 Base Salary. During
the term of this Agreement, Executive shall receive a minimum, annualized base salary of $              (the “Base Salary”). Executive’s annualized base salary
shall be reviewed periodically by the Board (or a committee thereof) and, in the sole discretion of the Board (or a committee thereof), such annualized base salary may be increased (but not decreased) effective as of any date determined by the Board
(or a committee thereof); provided, however, that the Board or the Employer may decrease Executive’s Base Salary at any time and from time to time so long as such decreases do not exceed 10% of Executive’s then Base Salary as in effect
immediately prior to such decrease, and such decreases are part of similar reductions applicable to all of the Employer’s similarly situated executives. Executive’s Base Salary shall be paid in equal installments in accordance with the
Employer’s standard policy regarding payment of compensation to executives but no less frequently than monthly. 
 4.2
Bonuses. Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Employer’s annual cash incentive program, which shall provide Executive with an opportunity to receive an annual, calendar-year bonus (payable in a single lump sum) based on
criteria determined in the discretion of the Board or a committee thereof (the “Annual Bonus”), it being understood that the actual amount of each Annual Bonus shall be determined in the discretion of the Board or a committee
thereof. The Employer shall pay each Annual Bonus with respect to a calendar year on or before March 15 of the following calendar year. 
 4.3 Long-Term Incentive Compensation. During Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive may, as determined by the Board (or a designated committee thereof) in its sole discretion,
periodically receive grants of stock options or other equity or non-equity related awards pursuant to the Employer’s or its affiliate’s long-term incentive plan(s), subject to the terms and conditions thereof. Any grants previously awarded
to Executive pursuant to the Employer’s long-term incentive plan(s) that are outstanding on the Effective Date hereof shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of such plan(s). 

4.4 Life Insurance. During Executive’s employment hereunder, the Employer shall maintain one or more policies of life
insurance on the life of Executive providing an aggregate death benefit in an amount not less than $1,000,000, but this obligation shall not apply if Executive is not insurable at standard rates as of the Effective Date, as determined by the
Employer in good faith. Executive shall have the right to designate the beneficiary or beneficiaries of the death benefit payable pursuant to such policy or policies. The provisions of 

  
 6 









 
this Section 4.4 can be satisfied in whole or in part by any group life insurance policy provided by the Employer in accordance with Section 4.6 hereof. Executive shall (a) furnish
any and all information reasonably requested by the Employer or the insurer to facilitate the issuance of the life insurance policy or policies described in this Section 4.4 or any adjustment to any such policy, and (b) take such physical
examinations as the Employer or the insurer deems necessary. If Executive refuses to cooperate or makes any material misstatement of information or nondisclosure of medical history, then the Employer shall have no further obligation to provide the
benefit described in this Section 4.4. If Executive terminates employment prior to the expiration of the term of such policy, the policy shall lapse unless Executive continues to maintain the policy at his own expense. 

4.5 Business Expenses. The Employer shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in
performing services hereunder, including all reasonable expenses of travel and living expenses while away from home on business or at the request of and in the service of the Employer. The expenses described in this Section 4.5 shall only be subject
to reimbursement if they are incurred and accounted for in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Employer. Any such reimbursement of expenses shall be made by the Employer upon or as soon as practicable following receipt of
supporting documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Employer (but in any event not later than the close of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense is incurred by Executive); provided, however, that, upon
Executive’s termination of employment with the Employer, in no event shall any additional reimbursement be made prior to the Section 409A Payment Date to the extent such payment delay is required under section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code.
In no event shall any reimbursement be made to Executive for such expenses after the later of (a) the first anniversary of the date of Executive’s death or (b) the date that is five years after the date of Executive’s termination
of employment with the Employer (other than by reason of Executive’s death). For the sake of clarity, all qualifying expense reimbursements described in this Section 4.5 shall be made by the Employer within the time periods prescribed
above, and no reimbursement timing limitation included in this Section 4.5 shall operate to excuse the Employer from making any reimbursement due under this Section 4.5. 

  
 7 









 4.6 Other Benefits. During Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive
shall be allowed to participate in all benefit plans and programs of the Employer, including improvements or modifications of the same, which are now, or may hereafter be, available to other senior executives of the Employer. The Employer shall not,
however, by reason of this Section 4.6, be obligated to institute, maintain, or refrain from changing, amending, or discontinuing any such benefit plan or program, so long as such changes are similarly applicable to other senior executives
generally. 
 4.7 Vacation and Sick Leave. During Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall be
entitled to (a) sick leave in accordance with the Employer’s policies applicable to its senior executives as may exist from time to time and (b) up to fifteen (15) days paid vacation each calendar year or the maximum number
of days Executive is entitled to under the terms of the Employer’s vacation policy, whichever is greater, and which such vacation shall accrue and be taken in accordance with the Employer’s vacation policies in effect from time to time.
Executive’s right to carry over unused vacation from one calendar year to the next shall be determined by the Employer’s vacation policy. 
 4.8 Offices. Subject to Articles II, III, and IV hereof, Executive agrees to serve without additional compensation, if elected or appointed thereto, as a director of the Employer or any
of the Employer’s affiliates and as a member of any committees of the board of directors of any such entities, in one or more executive positions of any of the Employer’s affiliates, and pursuant to a power of attorney for the benefit of
Employer, FINV, or any of their respective affiliates. 
 ARTICLE V 

EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT ON COMPENSATION  

5.1 For Cause, Death, Disability, or Without Good Reason. If Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate prior to
the expiration of the term provided in Section 3.1 for any reason described in Section 3.2(a), 3.2(b), or 3.2(c) or pursuant to Executive’s resignation for other than Good Reason, then all compensation and all benefits to Executive
hereunder shall terminate contemporaneously with such termination of employment, except that Executive shall be entitled to (a) payment of all accrued and unpaid Base Salary to the Date of Termination, (b) reimbursement for all incurred
but unreimbursed expenses for which Executive is entitled to reimbursement in accordance with Section 4.5, and (c) benefits to which Executive is entitled under the terms of any applicable benefit plan or program of the Employer or an
affiliate (such amounts set forth in (a), (b), and (c) shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Accrued Rights”). 
 5.2 Without Cause or for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate pursuant to Executive’s resignation for Good Reason or by action of the Employer pursuant
to Section 3.1 or 3.2 for any reason other than those encompassed by Section 3.2(a), 3.2(b), or 3.2(c), then all compensation and all benefits to Executive hereunder shall terminate contemporaneously with such termination of employment,
except that 

  
 8 









 
(i) Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Rights, and (ii) if, on the Date of Termination, the Employer does not have a right to terminate Executive’s employment under
Section 3.2(a), 3.2(b), or 3.2(c) and subject to Executive’s delivery, by the Release Expiration Date, and non-revocation of an executed release acceptable to the Employer, which shall be substantially in the form of the release contained
at Appendix A (the “Release”), Executive shall receive the following additional compensation and benefits from the Employer (but no other additional compensation or benefits after such termination): 

(a) Unpaid Prior Year Annual Bonus: The Employer shall pay to Executive any earned but unpaid Annual Bonus for the
calendar year ending prior to the Date of Termination, which amount shall be payable in a lump-sum on or before the date such annual bonuses are paid to executives who have continued employment with the Employer (but in no event earlier than 60 days
following the Date of Termination); 
 (b) Prorated Current Year Annual Bonus: The Employer shall pay to
Executive a bonus for the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs in an amount equal to the Annual Bonus for such year as determined in good faith by the Board in accordance with the criteria established pursuant to Section 4.2
and based on the Employer’s performance for such year, which amount shall be prorated through and including the Date of Termination (based on the ratio of the number of days Executive was employed by the Employer during such year to the number
of days in such year), payable in a lump-sum on or before the date such annual bonuses are paid to executives who have continued employment with the Employer (but in no event earlier than 60 days after the Date of Termination nor later than the
March 15 next following such calendar year); provided, however, that if this paragraph applies with respect to an Annual Bonus that is intended to constitute performance-based compensation within the meaning of, and for purposes of, section
162(m) of the Code, then this paragraph shall apply with respect to such Annual Bonus only to the extent the applicable performance criteria have been satisfied as certified by a committee of the Board as required under section 162(m) of the Code;

 (c) Severance Payment: The Employer shall pay to Executive an amount equal to two (2) times (or if
the Date of Termination occurs within 12 months following a Change in Control, three (3) times) the sum of Executive’s Base Salary as of the Date of Termination and the Average Annual Bonus, which amount shall be paid in a lump sum payment
on the date that is 60 days after the Date of Termination; and 
 (d) Post-Employment Health Coverage:
During the portion, if any, of the 18-month period following the Date of Termination that Executive elects to continue coverage for Executive and Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents, if any, under the Employer’s group health
plans under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (COBRA), and/or sections 601 through 608 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, the Employer shall promptly reimburse Executive on a
monthly basis for the difference between the amount Executive pays to effect and continue such coverage and the employee contribution amount that active senior executive employees of the Employer pay for the same or similar coverage under such group
health plans. 

  
 9 









 Notwithstanding the time of payment provisions of Section 5.2 above, if Executive is a specified
employee (as such term is defined in section 409A of the Code and as determined by the Employer in accordance with any method permitted under section 409A of the Code) and the payment of any amount described in such Section 5.2 would be subject
to additional taxes and interest under section 409A of the Code because the timing of such payment is not delayed as provided in section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the regulations thereunder, then such amount shall be paid within five business
days after the Section 409A Payment Date. 
 5.3 No Duty to Mitigate. Executive shall not be under any
duty or obligation to seek or accept other employment following termination of his employment with the Employer. 
 ARTICLE
VI 
 PROTECTION OF INFORMATION  

6.1 Disclosure to and Property of the Employer. For purposes of this Article VI, the term “the Employer” shall
include the Employer and any of its affiliates, and any reference to “employment” or similar terms shall include a director and/or consulting relationship. All information, trade secrets, designs, ideas, concepts, improvements, product
developments, discoveries, and inventions, whether patentable or not, that are conceived, made, developed, disclosed to, or acquired by Executive (whether before the Effective Date or after), individually or in conjunction with others, during the
period of Executive’s employment by the Employer (whether during business hours or otherwise and whether on the Employer’s premises or otherwise) that relate to the Employer’s or any of its affiliates’ businesses, trade secrets,
products, or services (including, without limitation, all such information relating to corporate opportunities, strategies, business plans, product specifications, compositions, manufacturing and distribution methods and processes, research,
financial and sales data, pricing terms, evaluations, opinions, interpretations, acquisition prospects, the identity of customers or their requirements, the identity of key contacts within the customer’s organizations or within the organization
of acquisition prospects, or production, marketing, and merchandising techniques, prospective names and marks), and all writings or materials of any type embodying any of such information, ideas, concepts, improvements, discoveries, inventions, and
other similar forms of expression (collectively, “Confidential Information”) shall be disclosed to the Employer and are and shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Employer or its affiliates, as applicable. Moreover,
all documents, videotapes, written presentations, brochures, drawings, memoranda, notes, records, files, correspondence, manuals, models, specifications, computer programs, E-mail, voice mail, electronic databases, maps, drawings, architectural
renditions, models, and all other writings or materials of any type embodying any of such information, ideas, concepts, improvements, discoveries, inventions, and other similar forms of expression (collectively, “Work
Product”) are and shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Employer (or its affiliates). Executive agrees to perform all actions reasonably requested by the Employer or its affiliates to establish and confirm such exclusive
ownership. Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Employer, for any reason, Executive promptly shall deliver such Confidential Information and Work Product, and all copies thereof, to the Employer. 

6.2 Disclosure to Executive. The Employer has and will disclose to Executive and place Executive in a position to have
access to or develop Confidential Information and Work Product of the Employer (or its affiliates); and/or has and will entrust Executive with business opportunities of the Employer (or its affiliates); and has and will place Executive in a position
to develop business good will on behalf of the Employer (or its affiliates).

 6.3 No Unauthorized Use or Disclosure. Executive agrees to preserve and
protect the confidentiality of all Confidential Information and Work Product. Executive agrees that Executive will not, at any time during or after Executive’s employment with the Employer, make any unauthorized disclosure of, and Executive
shall not remove from the Employer premises, Confidential Information or Work Product, or make any use thereof, except, in each case, in the carrying out of Executive’s responsibilities hereunder. Executive shall use all reasonable efforts to
cause all persons or entities to whom any Confidential Information shall be disclosed by Executive hereunder to preserve and protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information. Executive shall have no obligation hereunder to keep
confidential any Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure thereof is specifically required by law; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by applicable law, Executive shall provide the Employer with prompt notice
of such requirement prior to making any such disclosure, so that the Employer may seek an appropriate protective order. At the request of the Employer at any time, Executive agrees to deliver to the Employer all Confidential Information that
Executive may possess or control. Executive agrees that all Confidential Information of the Employer (whether now or hereafter existing) conceived, discovered, or made by Executive during the period of Executive’s employment by the Employer
exclusively belongs to the Employer (and not to Executive), and upon request by the Employer for specified Confidential Information, Executive will promptly disclose such Confidential Information to the Employer and perform all actions reasonably
requested by the Employer to establish and confirm such exclusive ownership. Affiliates of the Employer shall be third party beneficiaries of Executive’s obligations under this Article VI. As a result of Executive’s employment by the
Employer, Executive may also from time to time have access to, or knowledge of, confidential information or work product of third parties, such as customers, suppliers, partners, joint venturers, and the like, of the Employer and its affiliates.
Executive also agrees to preserve and protect the confidentiality of such third party confidential information and work product. 
 6.4 Ownership by the Employer. If, during Executive’s employment by the Employer, Executive creates or has created any work of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression that
is the subject matter of copyright (such as videotapes, written presentations, or acquisitions, computer programs, E-mail, voice mail, electronic databases, drawings, maps, architectural renditions, models, manuals, brochures, or the like) relating
to the Employer’s business, products, or services, whether such work is created solely by Executive or jointly with others (whether during business hours or otherwise and whether on the Employer’s premises or otherwise), including any Work
Product, the Employer shall be deemed the author of such work if the work is prepared by Executive in the scope of Executive’s employment; or, if the work relating to the Employer’s business, products, or services is not prepared by
Executive within the scope of Executive’s employment but is specially ordered by the Employer as a contribution to a collective work, as a part of any audiovisual work, as a translation, as a supplementary work, as a compilation, or as an
instructional text, then the work shall be considered to be work made for hire and the Employer shall be the author of the work. If the work relating to the Employer’s business, products, or services is neither prepared by Executive within the
scope of Executive’s employment nor a work specially ordered that is deemed to be a work made for hire during Executive’s employment by the Employer, then Executive hereby agrees to assign, and by these presents does assign, to the
Employer all of Executive’s worldwide right, title, and interest in and to such work and all rights of copyright therein. 

  
 11 










 6.5 Assistance by Executive. During the period of Executive’s employment

Remedies. Executive acknowledges that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article VI by Executive, and the Employer or its affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Article VI by
terminating payments then owing to Executive under this Agreement or otherwise and to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a
breach of this Article VI but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from Executive and Executive’s agents. However, if it is determined by the Employer acting in good faith that
Executive has not committed a breach of this Article VI, then the Employer shall resume the payments and benefits due under this Agreement and pay to Executive all payments and benefits that had been suspended pending such determination. 

ARTICLE VII

(a) during the period of Executive’s employment by the Employer, the business of developing and/or providing the products and services developed and/or provided by the Employer and its affiliates, and other products and services that are
functionally equivalent to the foregoing, and (b) during the portion of the Prohibited Period that begins on the termination of Executive’s employment with the Employer and its affiliates (as applicable), the business of developing and/or
providing the products and services developed and/or provided by the Employer and its affiliates at the time of such termination of employment and other products and services that are functionally equivalent to the foregoing; provided, however, that

environmental laws) of any Governmental Authority. 
 “Prohibited Period” means the period during which
Executive is employed by the Employer or any of its affiliates and a period of two years following the date that Executive is no longer employed by Employer or any of its affiliates; provided, however, that in the event that Executive’s
termination of employment under this Agreement occurs pursuant to Executive’s resignation under Section 3.3 of this Agreement for a reason other than Good Reason, then the Prohibited Period shall mean the period during which Executive is
employed by the Employer or any of its affiliates and a period of one year following the date that Executive is no longer employed by the Employer or any of its affiliates. 
 “Restricted Area” means: Lafayette Parish, Louisiana; Harris County, Texas; Montgomery County, Texas; and Fort Bend County, Texas; and any other geographical area within 100 miles
of any location in which the Employer engages in the Business as of the Date of Termination. 

  
 13 










 8.2 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. Executive and the Employer agree to the
non-competition and non-solicitation provisions of this Article VIII in consideration for the Confidential Information provided by the Employer to Executive pursuant to Article VI of this Agreement, to further protect the trade secrets and
Confidential Information disclosed or entrusted to Executive or created or developed by Executive for the Employer, to protect the business goodwill of the Employer developed through the efforts of Executive and the business opportunities disclosed
or entrusted to Executive and the other legitimate business interests of the Employer, and as an express incentive for the Employer to enter into this Agreement. 

(a) Subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 8.2(b) below, Executive expressly covenants and agrees that during
the Prohibited Period, Executive will refrain from carrying on or engaging in, directly or indirectly, any Business in competition with the Employer or its affiliates in the Restricted Area. Accordingly, Executive will not, directly or indirectly,
own, manage, operate, join, become an employee of, partner in, owner, or member of (or an independent contractor to), control or participate in, be connected with or loan money to, sell or lease equipment or property to, or otherwise be affiliated
with any Competing Business in the Restricted Area. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the restrictions contained in
Section 8.2(a), Executive or any of Executive’s affiliates may own an aggregate of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of any corporation that is a Competing Business, if such stock is listed on a national securities
exchange or regularly traded in the over-the-counter market by a member of a national securities exchange, without violating the provisions of Section 8.2(a), provided that neither Executive nor any of Executive’s affiliates has the power,
directly or indirectly, to control or direct the management or affairs of any such corporation and is not involved in the management of such corporation. 
 (c) Executive further expressly covenants and agrees that during the Prohibited Period, Executive will not, and Executive will cause Executive’s affiliates not to (i) engage or employ, or
solicit or contact with a view to the engagement or employment of, any person who is an officer or employee of the Employer or any of its affiliates, or (ii) canvass, solicit, approach, or entice away, or cause to be canvassed, solicited,
approached, or enticed away, from the Employer or any of its affiliates any person who or which is a customer of any of such entities during the period during which Executive is employed by the Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
restrictions of clause (c) of this Section 8.2(c) shall not apply with respect to an officer or employee who responds to a general solicitation that is not specifically directed at officers and employees of the Employer or any of its
affiliates. 
 (d) Before accepting employment with any other person or entity during the Prohibited Period, the
Executive will inform such person or entity of the restrictions contained in this Article VIII. 

  
 14 










 8.3 Relief. Executive and the Employer agree and acknowledge that the
limitations as to time, geographical area, and scope of activity to be restrained as set forth in Section 8.2 are reasonable and do not impose any greater restraint than is necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Employer.
Executive and the Employer also acknowledge that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Article VIII by Executive, and the Employer or its affiliates shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Article VIII by
terminating payments then owing to Executive under this Agreement or otherwise and to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a
breach of this Article VIII but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from Executive and Executive’s agents. 

8.4 Reasonableness; Enforcement. Executive hereby represents that Executive has read and understands, and agrees to be
bound by, the terms of this Article VIII. Executive acknowledges that the geographic scope and duration of the covenants contained in this Article VIII are the result of arm’s-length bargaining and are fair and reasonable in light of
(a) the nature and wide geographic scope of the Employer’s operations of the Business, (b) Executive’s level of control over and contact with the Employer’s business in all jurisdictions in which it is conducted, which
includes the entire Restricted Area, and (c) the amount of Confidential Information that Executive is receiving in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties on behalf of the Employer and the amount of goodwill with which
Executive is and/or will be connected and will help build on behalf of the Employer. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Article VIII be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements,
whether now or hereafter in effect; therefore, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, Executive and the Employer hereby waive any provision of applicable Legal Requirements that would render any provision of this Article VIII
invalid or unenforceable. 
 8.5 Reformation; Severability. The Employer and Executive agree that the foregoing
restrictions are reasonable under the circumstances and that any breach of the covenants contained in this Article VIII would cause irreparable injury to the Employer. Executive understands that the foregoing restrictions may limit Executive’s
ability to engage in certain businesses anywhere in the Restricted Area during the Prohibited Period, but acknowledges that Executive will receive sufficient consideration from the Employer to justify such restriction. Further, Executive
acknowledges that Executive’s skills are such that Executive can be gainfully employed in non-competitive employment and that the agreement not to compete will not prevent Executive from earning a living. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid
restrictions are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad as to geographic area or time, or otherwise unenforceable, the parties intend for the restrictions herein set forth to be modified by the court making
such determination so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, to be fully enforced. If, due to applicable law, a court is not permitted to modify a restriction within this Article VIII that it deems overly broad, then the court
shall have the power to, and shall, sever such overly broad restriction (or any portion thereof) so that the restrictions after such severance are enforceable and shall be fully enforced. By agreeing to this contractual modification prospectively at
this time, the Employer and Executive intend to make this Article VIII enforceable under the law or laws of all applicable states and other jurisdictions so that the entire agreement not to compete and this Agreement as prospectively modified shall
remain in full force and effect and shall not be rendered void or illegal. Such modification shall not affect the payments made to Executive under this Agreement. 

  
 15 










 8.6 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that it is necessary for either party
to employ the services of an attorney in the course of litigation or arbitration regarding a breach or alleged breach of this Article VIII,, the prevailing party in such litigation or arbitration (as determined by the court or arbitrator, as
applicable), shall be entitled to recover all reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection therewith. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 CERTAIN EXCISE TAXES  

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in section
280G(c) of the Code), and the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement, together with any other payments and benefits which Executive has the right to receive from the Employer or any of its affiliates, would constitute a “parachute
payment” (as defined in section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), then the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement shall be either (a) reduced (but not below zero) so that the present value of such total amounts and benefits received
by Executive from the Employer and its affiliates will be one dollar ($1.00) less than three times Executive’s “base amount” (as defined in section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) and so that no portion of such amounts and benefits received
by Executive shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by section 4999 of the Code, or (b) paid in full, whichever produces the better net after-tax position to Executive (taking into account any applicable excise tax under section 4999 of the
Code and any other applicable taxes). The reduction of payments and benefits hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing, first, payments or benefits to be paid in cash hereunder in the order in which such payment or benefit would be paid or
provided (beginning with such payment or benefit that would be made last in time and continuing, to the extent necessary, through to such payment or benefit that would be made first in time) and, then, reducing any benefit to be provided in-kind
hereunder in a similar order. The determination as to whether any such reduction in the amount of the payments and benefits provided hereunder is necessary shall be made by the Employer in good faith. If a reduced payment or benefit is made or
provided, and through error or otherwise, that payment or benefit, when aggregated with other payments and benefits from the Employer (or its affiliates) used in determining if a “parachute payment” exists, exceeds one dollar ($1.00) less
than three times Executive’s base amount, then Executive shall immediately repay such excess to the Employer upon notification that an overpayment has been made. Nothing in this Article 9 shall require the Employer to be responsible for,
or have any liability or obligation with respect to, Executive’s excise tax liabilities under section 4999 of the Code.

provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then the invalidity or unenforceability of that provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and all other provisions shall remain in

Employer at any time without the consent of Executive, and any assign of the Employer shall be deemed to be the Employer for purposes of this Agreement. Except as provided in the foregoing sentences of this Section 10.10, this Agreement and the

INC., a Texas Corporation (the “Employer”). 
 1. General Release. 

(a) For good and valuable consideration, including the Employer’s provision of certain payments and benefits to Executive in
accordance with Section 5.2 of the Employment Agreement, Executive hereby releases, discharges, and forever acquits the Employer, its affiliates and subsidiaries, their respective past, present, and future stockholders, members, partners,
directors, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns, as well as all employee benefit plans maintained by the Employer or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries and all fiduciaries and
administrators of any such plan, in their personal and representative capacities (collectively, the “Employer Parties”), from liability for, and hereby waives, any and all claims, rights, damages, or causes of action of any
kind related to Executive’s employment with any Employer Party, the termination of such employment, and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Released
Claims”). 
 (b) The Released Claims include without limitation those arising under or related to: (i) the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967; (ii) Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; (iii) the Civil Rights Act of 1991; (iv) sections 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of the United States Code; (v) the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, including, but not limited to, sections 502(a)(1)(A), 502(a)(1)(B), 502(a)(2), and 502(a)(3) to the extent the release of such claims is not prohibited by applicable law; (vi) the Immigration Reform Control Act;
(vii) the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; (viii) the National Labor Relations Act; (ix) the Occupational Safety and Health Act; (x) the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; (xi) any state, local, or federal
anti-discrimination or anti-retaliation law; (xii) any state, local, or federal wage and hour law; (xiii) any other local, state, or federal law, regulation, or ordinance; (xiv) any public policy, contract, tort, or common law;
(xv) costs, fees, or other expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters; (xvi) any employment contract, incentive compensation plan, or stock option plan with any Employer Party or to any ownership interest in any
Employer Party, except as expressly provided in Section 5.2 of the Employment Agreement or as may be expressly provided in any stock option or other equity compensation agreement between Executive and the Employer; and (xvii) compensation
or benefits of any kind not expressly set forth in Section 5.2 of the Employment Agreement or in any such stock option or other equity compensation agreement between Executive and the Employer.

 (d) Notwithstanding this release of liability, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive
from filing any non-legally waivable claim (including a challenge to the validity of this Agreement) with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) or comparable state or local agency or from participating in any
investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC or comparable state or local agency. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive understands and expressly agrees that Executive is waiving any and all rights to recover any monetary or
personal relief or recovery as a result of any such EEOC (or comparable state or local agency) proceeding or subsequent legal actions. 
 (e) This Agreement is not intended to indicate that any such claims exist or that, if they do exist, they are meritorious. Rather, Executive is simply agreeing that, in exchange for the consideration
recited in the first sentence of Section 1(a) of this Agreement, any and all potential claims of this nature that Executive may have against the Employer Parties, regardless of whether they actually exist, are expressly settled, compromised,
and waived. 
 (f) By signing this Agreement, Executive is bound by it. Anyone who succeeds to Executive’s rights and
responsibilities, such as heirs or the executor of Executive’s estate, is also bound by this Agreement. This release also applies to any claims brought by any person or agency or class action under which Executive may have a right or benefit.
THIS RELEASE INCLUDES MATTERS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE SOLE OR PARTIAL NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER GROSS OR SIMPLE) OR OTHER FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF ANY OF THE EMPLOYER PARTIES. 

2. Covenant Not to Sue. Executive agrees not to bring or join any lawsuit against any of the Employer Parties in any court
relating to any of the Released Claims. Executive represents that Executive has not brought or joined any lawsuit or arbitration against any of the Employer Parties in any court or before any arbitral authority and has made no assignment of any
rights Executive has asserted or may have against any of the Employer Parties to any person or entity, in each case, with respect to any Released Claims.
