 10. Resignation for Good Reason. If Employee provides notice of his intent to
terminate for Good Reason, then, subject to the expiration of the cure period and Employee’s actual termination as described below, such resignation shall be deemed an Involuntary Termination for purposes of this Agreement and Employee shall be
entitled to the payments and benefits described in Section 9 subject to the requirements set forth in this Agreement, including Section 11. Employee must provide written notice to the Company of his intent to terminate his employment for
Good Reason within thirty (30) days of the action or omission giving rise to such claim of Good Reason. Thereafter, the Company shall have a period of thirty (30) days within which it may correct the event or action that constitutes the
grounds for Good Reason as set forth in Employee’s notice of termination. If the Company does not correct the event or action prior to the expiration of the foregoing cure period, Employee must terminate his employment for Good Reason within
thirty (30) days after the expiration of the cure period, in order for the termination to be considered a Good Reason termination under this Agreement. 
 11. Release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments or benefits shall be provided under Sections 9 and 10, as applicable (except for those payments that are owed pursuant to applicable law
and/or are specifically not conditioned upon Employee’s execution of a release), unless Employee executes, and does not revoke, the Company’s then standard written general release (the “Release”) of any and all claims against the
Company and all related parties with respect to all matters arising out of Employee’s employment by the Company (other than any entitlements under the terms of this Agreement or under any other plans or programs of the Company in which Employee
participated and under which Employee has accrued and earned a benefit) or the termination thereof. The Company will provide Employee with the form of release agreement within seven days after Employee’s separation from service. To be entitled
to the severance or other benefits, Employee must execute and deliver to the Company the release agreement on or before the last day of the minimum required waiver consideration period provided under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act or other
applicable law or such later date specified in the release agreement. If Employee timely delivers an executed release agreement to the Company, and Employee does not revoke the release agreement during the minimum revocation period required under
applicable law, if any, the severance or other benefits shall be paid or commence being paid, as specified in this Agreement, subject to any delay required pursuant to Section 30(b) of this Agreement. If, however, the period during which
Employee has discretion to execute or revoke the release agreement straddles two calendar years, the cash severance or other benefits shall be paid or commence being paid, as applicable, as soon as practicable in the second of the two calendar
years, regardless of within which calendar year Employee actually delivers the executed release agreement to the Company, subject to the release agreement first becoming effective. Consistent with section 409A of the Code, Employee may not, directly
or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. Nothing in this Section 11 shall be construed to alter the terms of this Agreement that condition Employee’s entitlement to any severance or other benefits upon Employee’s
compliance with the restrictive covenants and any other terms and conditions specified in this Agreement. 
 12. Other
Payments. Any payments and benefits that become due under Sections 9 and 10 hereof shall be in addition to (but not in duplication of) and not in lieu of any payments and benefits due to Employee under any other plan, policy or program of the
Company, except that Employee shall not be entitled to any payments and benefits under the Company’s then current severance pay policies. 

  
 -7-









 13. No Mitigation. Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for herein be reduced by any compensation earned by other employment or otherwise; provided, however,
that any obligation of the Company to provide COBRA healthcare continuation coverage under Sections 4 and 5 hereof shall cease upon Employee becoming covered under a healthcare plan of another employer. 

14. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. Except as provided in Section 12, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit
Employee’s continuing or future participation in or rights under any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plan or program provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and for which Employee may qualify. 

15. No Set-Off. Other than with respect to the Recoupment Policy (as hereinafter defined), the Company’s obligation to make
the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which the Company
may have against Employee or others. 
 16. Taxes. 

(a) All payments under this Agreement shall be made subject to applicable tax withholding, and the Company shall withhold from any
payments under this Agreement all federal, state and local taxes as the Company is required to withhold pursuant to any law or governmental rule or regulation. Employee shall bear all expense of, and be solely responsible for, all federal, state,
local or foreign taxes due with respect to any payment received under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any excise tax imposed by section 4999 of the Code. 
 (b) If the payments and benefits received or to be received by Employee in connection with a Change in Control or the termination of Employee’s employment (whether payable pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement (“Contract Payments”) or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with the Company or any affiliate (collectively with the Contract Payments, the “Total Payments”), would constitute a “parachute payment”
under Section 280G of the Code, then the Total Payments shall be reduced, in the manner set forth below, by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the Total Payments being non-deductible to the Company pursuant to
Section 280G of the Code or subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. 
 (c) All
determinations required to be made under this Section 16, including whether a reduction in Total Payments is required, the amount of any such reduction and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by an
accounting or law firm of recognized standing reasonably selected by the Company (the “Firm”), which may be, but will not be required to be, the Company’s independent auditors. The Firm shall submit its determination and detailed
supporting calculations to both Employee and the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a notice from either the Company or Employee that Employee may receive payments which may be “parachute payments.” If the Firm
determines that a reduction is required by this Section 16, the Contract Payments consisting of cash severance shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments shall be subject to the excise tax imposed


  
 -8-









 
by section 4999 of the Code, and the Company shall pay such reduced amount to Employee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If additional Contract Payments must be reduced pursuant to
this Section 16 after the cash severance has been reduced to zero, the Contract Payments allocable to performance-vested Equity Awards shall next be reduced, followed by the Contract Payments allocable to time-vested Equity Awards, to the
extent necessary to satisfy the requirements of this Section 16. If the Firm determines that none of the Total Payments, after taking into account any reduction required by this Section 16, constitutes a “parachute payment”
within the meaning of section 280G of the Code, it will, at the same time as it makes such determination, furnish Employee and the Company an opinion that Employee has substantial authority not to report any excise tax under section 4999 of the Code
on Employee’s federal income tax return. 
 (d) Employee and the Company shall each provide the Firm access to and copies
of any books, records, and documents in the possession of Employee or the Company, as the case may be, reasonably requested by the Firm, and otherwise cooperate with the Firm in connection with the preparation and issuance of the determinations and
calculations contemplated by this Section 16. The fees and expenses of the Firm for its services in connection with the determinations and calculations contemplated by this Section 16 shall be borne by the Company. 

17. Confidential Information. Employee agrees that Employee’s services to the Company have been and will continue to be of a
special, unique and extraordinary character, and that Employee’s position places Employee in a position of confidence and trust with the Company’s customers and employees. Employee also recognizes that Employee’s position with the
Company will give Employee substantial access to Confidential Information (as defined below), the disclosure of which to competitors of the Company would cause the Company to suffer substantial and irreparable damage. Employee recognizes, therefore,
that it is in the Company’s legitimate business interest to restrict Employee’s use of Confidential Information for any purposes other than the discharge of Employee’s employment duties at the Company, and to limit any potential
appropriation of Confidential Information by Employee for the benefit of the Company’s competitors and to the detriment of the Company. Accordingly, Employee agrees as follows: 

(a) Employee will not at any time, whether during or after the termination of Employee’s employment, reveal to any person or entity
any of the trade secrets or confidential information of the Company or of any third party which the Company is under an obligation to keep confidential (including but not limited to trade secrets or confidential information respecting inventions,
products, designs, methods, know-how, techniques, systems, processes, software programs, works of authorship, customer lists, projects, plans and proposals) (“Confidential Information”), except as may be required in the ordinary course of
performing Employee’s duties as an employee of the Company, and Employee shall keep secret all matters entrusted to Employee and shall not use or attempt to use any such information in any manner which may injure or cause loss or may be
calculated to injure or cause loss whether directly or indirectly to the Company. By way of example and not limitation, Confidential Information also includes any and all information, whether or not meeting the legal definition of a trade secret,
concerning the Company’s actual, planned or contemplated: (i) marketing plans, business plans, strategies, forecasts, budgets, projections and costs; (ii) personnel information; (iii) customer, vendor and supplier lists;
(iv) customer, vendor and supplier needs, transaction histories, contacts, volumes, characteristics, 

  
 -9-









 
agreements and prices; (v) promotions, operations, sales, marketing, and research and development; (vi) business operations, internal structures and financial affairs;
(vii) software and operating systems and procedures; (viii) pricing structure of the Company’s services and products; (ix) proposed services and products; (x) contracts with other parties; (xi) performance
characteristics of the Company’s products; and (xii) Inventions and Works as defined in Section 18. Confidential Information also includes any and all information of Company’s clients and customers which is deemed confidential by
such clients and customers (whether past, present or potential), including, but not limited to: marketing tools, inventions, processes, contact lists, materials, software program code, logic diagrams, flow charts, procedural diagrams, computer
programming techniques and know how, maps and any documentation related thereto. 
 (b) The above restrictions shall not apply
to: (i) information that at the time of disclosure is in the public domain through no fault of Employee; (ii) information received from a third party outside of the Company that was publicly disclosed without a breach of any
confidentiality obligation; or (iii) information approved for release by written authorization of the Company. In addition, in the event that Employee is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or
documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information, it is agreed that Employee will provide the Company with prompt notice of such request(s) so that the Company may seek an
appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Company grants a waiver
hereunder, Employee may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information which Employee is legally compelled to disclose and will exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential
treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information so furnished. 
 (c) Further, Employee agrees that during
Employee’s employment Employee shall not take, use or permit to be used any notes, memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data, documentation or other materials of any nature relating to any
matter within the scope of the business of the Company or concerning any of its dealings or affairs otherwise than for the benefit of the Company. Employee further agrees that Employee shall not, after the termination of Employee’s employment,
use or permit to be used any such notes, memoranda, reports, lists, records, drawings, sketches, specifications, software programs, data, documentation or other materials, it being agreed that all of the foregoing shall be and remain the sole and
exclusive property of the Company and that, immediately upon the termination of Employee’s employment, Employee shall deliver all of the foregoing plus any other Confidential Information, and all copies thereof, to the Company, at its main
office. 
 (d) Employee agrees that upon the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee will not take
or retain without written authorization any documents, files or other property of the Company, and Employee will return promptly to the Company any such documents, files or property in Employee’s possession or custody, including any copies
thereof maintained in any medium or format. Employee recognizes that all documents, files and property which Employee has received and will receive from the Company, including but not limited to scientific research, customer lists, handbooks,
memoranda, product specifications, and other materials (with the exception of documents relating to benefits to which Employee might be entitled following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company), are for the


  
 -10-









 
exclusive use of the Company and employees who are discharging their responsibilities on behalf of the Company, and that Employee has no claim or right to the continued use, possession or custody
of such documents, files or property following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company. 
 18.

Employee will generate and provide to the Company adequate and current written records of all Inventions and Works in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, reports, flow charts, procedural diagrams, logic diagrams, software program code, procedural

available to the Company at all times, all available information relating thereto (with all necessary plans and models) to the Company. 
 (b) The Company and Employee agree that “Inventions,” is defined in this Agreement to include any and all new or useful ideas, developments, discoveries, improvements, designs, formulas,

jointly with others (i) which relate to the actual or contemplated business, work or activities of the Company, (ii) which result from or are suggested by any work which Employee has done or may do on behalf of the Company, or by any
information that Employee may receive by virtue of Employee’s employment by the Company, or (iii) which are developed, tested, improved or investigated either in part or entirely on time for which Employee was paid by the Company, or with
the use of premises, equipment or property provided, owned, leased, or contracted for by or on behalf of the Company.

 (d) Employee agrees to assign, transfer and convey, and hereby assigns, transfers and
conveys to the Company all of the rights, titles and interests in and to any and all such Inventions and Works that Employee has or may acquire in such Inventions or Works which are conceived, made, reduced to practice, developed, authored, created,
drawn or written at any time while Employee is employed by the Company and for a period of six (6) months thereafter. Employee agrees that the Company will be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual property
rights in connection therewith, and agrees to take all such actions as may be requested by the Company during Employee’s employment with the Company and at any time thereafter, with respect to any such Inventions or Works to confirm or evidence
such assignment, transfer, conveyance or ownership, and to assist in the Company’s maintenance, enforcement, license, assignment, transfer, or conveyance of rights in respect of the Inventions or Works. Employee understands that if he is
employed by the Company in California, his obligation to assign rights in inventions does not apply to an invention that qualifies fully under the provisions of California Labor Code Section 2870. 

(e) By way of example and not limitation, at any time and from time to time, upon the request of the Company, Employee agrees to execute,
acknowledge, swear to, seal and deliver to the Company, any and all lawful instruments, documents and papers, give evidence and do any and all other lawful acts that, in the opinion of the Company, are or may be necessary or desirable to document
such assignment, transfer and conveyance or to enable the Company to file and prosecute applications for and to acquire, maintain and enforce any and all patents, trademarks, copyrights and other property rights under United States, local, state or
foreign law with respect to any such Inventions or Works or to obtain any extension, validation, reissue, continuance or renewal of any such patent, trademark, copyright, or other intellectual property right. By way of further example and not
limitation, Employee agrees to meet with the Company representatives or attorneys for the purpose of initiating, maintaining or defending litigation, administrative or other proceedings; and to participate fully in litigation, administrative or
other proceedings as requested by the Company. In the event that the Company may be unable, for any reason whatsoever, after reasonable effort, to secure Employee’s signature on any patent, copyright, trademark or other intellectual property
application or other papers, Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents, as Employee’s agent and attorney-in-fact to act for and on behalf of Employee to execute, acknowledge,
swear to, seal and deliver to the Company and to file any such application or applications or other papers, and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the provisions of Section 18 of this Agreement. 

(f) The Company agrees to reimburse Employee for reasonable expenses incurred by Employee in complying with the provisions of Sections
18(d) and 18(e) of this Agreement. The Company and Employee agree that Employee is not entitled to additional compensation beyond that paid to Employee for the period of time that he is employed by the Company, which compensation, along with the
Company’s understandings set forth in this Agreement, is expressly acknowledged to be adequate consideration for all of the Employee promises and obligations set forth in this Agreement. 

  
 -12-









 (g) Employee expressly acknowledges and states that all Works which are made by Employee
(solely or jointly with others) are being created at the instance of the Company and are “works made for hire,” as that term is defined in the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 USC § 101. In the event that such laws are inapplicable or
in the event that any such Works, or any part thereof, are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a work made for hire, this Agreement will operate as an irrevocable and unconditional assignment by Employee to The Company of all
Employee’s right, title and interest (including, without limitation, all rights in and to the copyrights throughout the world, including the right to prepare derivative works and the rights to all renewals and extensions) in the Works in
perpetuity. 
 (h) Employee represents that Attachment A to this Agreement describes all inventions and works, whether
patentable or not, which have been conceived, made, reduced to practice, developed, authored, created, drawn or written prior to Employee’s employment by the Company; provided, however, that, Employee has not disclosed in
Attachment A information that is a trade secret belonging to another, or which is the subject of a contract preventing Employee’s disclosure of the information to the Company. 

19. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Employee hereunder, Employee
acknowledges that during the course of Employee’s employment with the Company, Company will provide Employee Confidential Information, which Employee promises to not disclose. Further, Employee will become and/or remain familiar with the
Company’s trade secrets and with other Confidential Information concerning the Company and that Employee’s services shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company, and therefore, the Employee agrees that some
restrictions on Employee’s activities during and after Employee’s employment are necessary to protect the goodwill, Confidential Information and other legitimate interests of the Company: 

(a) During the period of Employee’s employment by the Company and, if Employee’s employment with the Company terminates for any
reason, for a period of one (1) year thereafter (“Covenant Period”), except with the written consent of the Board, Employee shall not directly or indirectly, own, control, finance or participate in the ownership, control or financing
of any Direct Competitor or Secondary Competitor. For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Direct Competitor” is defined as those entities listed on Attachment B, [as shall be modified from time-to-time by Company upon written
notice to Employee]. A “Secondary Competitor” is defined as a person, business or enterprise which directly or indirectly engages in information technology consulting and technology services, management consulting services,
or outsourcing services, including, but not limited to, technology strategy consulting, systems development, enterprise software package implementation and maintenance, data warehousing and business intelligence, application testing, application
maintenance, infrastructure management, and business process outsourcing, in the Territory. For purposes of this Agreement, Territory is defined as any state in the United States and any country in the world in which the Company has sold or
performed any services at the time of the termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company. 
 (b) During the
Covenant Period, the Employer further agrees that Employee shall not be employed by or provide services in any capacity to, a Direct Competitor in any part of the world. In addition, during the Covenant Period, Employee agrees that Employee shall
not, in the Territory, provide services the same as or similar to the services that Employee provided to the Company during a one (1) year period immediately preceding the termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company to any
Secondary Competitor. 

  
 -13-









 (c) In further consideration for the Company’s promises herein, Employee agrees that
for the period beginning with the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, Employee will not directly or indirectly solicit or recruit any part-time or full-time
employee, representative or consultant of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates to work for a third party other than the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates or engage in any activity that would cause any employee, representative or
consultant to violate any agreement with the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates. The foregoing covenant shall not apply to any person after two (2) months have elapsed after the date on which such person’s employment by the Company
has terminated. 
 (d) The foregoing restrictions shall not be construed to prohibit Employee’s ownership of less than one
percent (1%) of any class of securities of any corporation which is engaged in any of the foregoing businesses and has a class of securities registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provided that such ownership
represents a passive investment and that neither Employee nor any group of persons including Employee in any way, either directly or indirectly, manages or exercises control of any such corporation, guarantees any of its financial obligations,
otherwise takes any part in its business, other than exercising Employee’s rights as a stockholder, or seeks to do any of the foregoing. 
 20. Employee Representations. 
 (a) Employee represents and warrants that
this Agreement and his employment by the Company does not conflict with and will not be constrained by any prior business relationship or contract, that Employee does not possess trade secrets or other proprietary information arising out of any
prior business relationship or contract that, in Employee’s best judgment would be utilized in connection with Employee’s employment with the Company. Employee further agrees that he will not disclose any such trade secrets or other
proprietary information to the Company or others. 
 (b) Employee represents and warrants that (i) before signing this
Agreement, he has read this Agreement and is entering into this Agreement freely and with knowledge of its contents with the intent to be bound by it and the restrictions contained herein; (ii) the restrictions imposed on Employee by this
Agreement are fair, reasonable and proper and required for the protection of the Company’s business interests, particularly its investments in Employee (e.g., Employee’s job knowledge and skills), its Confidential Information, as
well as the goodwill developed, and its business relationships, with its clients, customers and prospective clients and customers; and (iii) the restrictions imposed on Employee by this Agreement, particularly, the post-termination
restrictions, shall not preclude Employee from earning a living or engaging in Employee’s profession or trade, or pursuing a career or a business. 

  
 -14-









 21. Equitable Relief. 

(a) Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 17, 18, and 19 hereof are reasonable and necessary to protect the
legitimate interests of the Company and its affiliates, that the Company would not have entered into this Agreement in the absence of such restrictions, and that any violation of any provision of those Sections will result in irreparable injury to
the Company. Employee represents that Employee’s experience and capabilities are such that the restrictions contained in Section 17, 18, and 19 hereof will not prevent Employee from obtaining employment or otherwise earning a living at the
same general level of economic benefit as is currently the case. Employee further represents and acknowledges that (i) Employee has been advised by the Company to consult Employee’s own legal counsel in respect of this Agreement, and
(ii) that Employee has had full opportunity, prior to execution of this Agreement, to review thoroughly this Agreement with Employee’s counsel. 
 (b) Employee agrees that the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages, as well as an equitable accounting of all earnings,
profits and other benefits arising from any violation of Sections 17, 18, and 19 hereof, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which the Company may be entitled. The period of the injunction shall be
measured from the date of a court order granting the injunctive relief. In the event that any of the provisions of Sections 17, 18, and 19 hereof should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, service, or other limitations permitted by
applicable law in any jurisdiction, then such provisions shall be deemed reformed in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, service, or other limitations permitted by applicable law. 

(c) Employee irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees that any suit, action or other legal proceeding arising out of
Section 17, 18, and 19 hereof, including without limitation, any action commenced by the Company for preliminary and permanent injunctive relief or other equitable relief, may be brought in the United States District Court for the District of
New Jersey, or if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in New Jersey, (ii) consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or
proceeding, and (iii) waives any objection which Employee may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court. Employee also irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the service of any process, pleadings,
notices or other papers in a manner permitted by the notice provisions of Section 24 hereof. 
 22. Term of
Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for the duration of Employee’s employment with the Company; provided, however, that after the termination of Employee’s employment during the term of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall remain in effect until all of the obligations of the Parties hereunder are satisfied or have expired. 

23. Successor Company. The Company shall require any successor or successors (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Employee, to acknowledge expressly that this Agreement is binding upon and enforceable against
the Company in accordance with the terms hereof, and to become jointly and severally obligated with the Company to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession
or successions had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the Company shall mean the Company as herein before
defined and any such successor or successors to its business and/or assets, jointly and severally. 

  
 -15-









 24. Notice. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder or
necessary or convenient in connection herewith shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight express courier service, as follows: 

If to the Company, to: 
 Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation 
 500 Frank W. Burr
Blvd. 
 Teaneck, NJ 07666 

Attn: General Counsel 
 If to Employee, to: 
 [insert information] 

or to such other names or addresses as the Company or Employee, as the case may be, shall designate by notice to the other Parties hereto in the manner
specified in this Section; provided, however, that if no such notice is given by the Company following a change in control, notice at the last address of the Company or to any successor pursuant to this Section 24 shall be deemed sufficient for
the purposes hereof. Any such notice shall be deemed delivered and effective when received in the case of personal delivery, five days after deposit, postage prepaid, with the U.S. Postal Service in the case of registered or certified mail, or on
the next business day in the case of overnight express courier service. 
 25. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be
governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of New Jersey without giving effect to any conflict of laws provisions. 

26. Contents of Agreement, Amendment and Assignment. 
 (a) This Agreement, including the Conduct Code, supersedes all prior agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof, sets forth the entire understanding between the Parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof and cannot be changed, modified, extended or terminated except upon written amendment executed by Employee and executed on the Company’s behalf by a duly authorized officer, except for revisions or additions to
Attachment B, which may be unilaterally modified by Company upon written notice to Employee; provided, however, that this Agreement, except as expressly set forth in Section 9, does not supersede, modify or change any existing
written award agreements regarding stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance awards, performance units or other stock-based awards issued to Employee prior to the effective date of this
Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement may provide for payments to Employee under certain compensation or bonus plans under circumstances where such plans would not provide for 

  
 -16-









 
payment thereof. It is the specific intention of the Parties that the provisions of this Agreement shall supersede any provisions to the contrary in such plans, and such plans shall be deemed to
have been amended to correspond with this Agreement without further action by the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors or the Board unless such amendment would contravene the provisions of section 409A of the Code and result in the
imposition of additional taxes under section 409A of the Code upon Employee. 
 (b) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed
as giving Employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Company, or as changing or modifying the “at will” nature of Employee’s employment status. 
 (c) All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns of the Parties
hereto, except that the duties and responsibilities of Employee and the Company hereunder shall not be assignable in whole or in part by the Company. If Employee should die after Employee’s Termination Date and while any amount payable
hereunder would still be payable to Employee hereunder if Employee had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Employee’s devises, legates or other
designees or, if there is no such designee, to Employee’s estate. 
 27. Severability. If any provision of this
Agreement is declared illegal, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid, and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the
remainder of the terms of this Agreement shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision. 
 28. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver. No right conferred upon the Parties by this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every such right or remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission by a Party in exercising any right, remedy or power hereunder or existing at law or in equity
shall be construed as a waiver thereof. 
 29. Miscellaneous. All section headings are for convenience only. This
Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which is an original. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement or any counterpart hereof to produce or account for any of the other counterparts. 

30. Section 409A. 
 (a) Interpretation. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code, and specifically, with the “short-term deferral exception” under Treas. Reg.
section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and the “separation pay exception” under Treas. Reg. section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), and shall in all respects be administered and construed in accordance with section 409A of the Code. If any payment or benefit
hereunder cannot be provided or made at the time specified herein without incurring sanctions on Employee under section 409A of the Code, 

  
 -17-









 
then such payment or benefit shall be provided in full at the earliest time thereafter when such sanctions will not be imposed. For purposes of section 409A of the Code, all payments to be made
upon a Termination of Employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” (within the meaning of such term under section 409A of the Code), each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate
payment, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments, and if a payment is not made by the designated payment date under this Agreement, the payment shall be made by
December 31 of the calendar year in which the designated date occurs. To the extent that any payment provided for hereunder would be subject to additional tax under section 409A of the Code, or would cause the administration of this Agreement
to fail to satisfy the requirements of section 409A of the Code, such provision shall be deemed null and void to the extent permitted by applicable law, and any such amount shall be payable in accordance with 6(b) below. In no event shall the
Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. Nothing herein shall be construed as having modified the time and form of payment of any amounts or payments of “deferred compensation” (as defined under Treas. Reg.
section 1.409A-1(b)(1), after giving effect to the exemptions in Treas. Reg. sections 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12)) that were otherwise payable pursuant to the terms of any agreement between the Company and Employee in effect on or after
January 1, 2005 and prior to the date of this Agreement. 
 (b) Payment Delay. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, if it is necessary to postpone the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable under this Agreement as a result of Employee’s “separation from service” with the Company to prevent the imposition of any
accelerated or additional tax under section 409A of the Code, then the Company will postpone the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided
to Employee) that are not otherwise paid within the “short-term deferral exception” under Treas. Reg. section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and the “separation pay exception” under Treas. Reg. section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), until the first
payroll date that occurs after the date that is six months following Employee’s “separation of service” with the Company. If any payments are postponed due to such requirements, such postponed amounts will be paid to Employee in a
lump sum on the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is six months following Employee’s “separation of service” with the Company. If Employee dies during the postponement period prior to the payment of the postponed
amount, the amounts withheld on account of section 409A of the Code shall be paid to the personal representative of Employee’s estate within sixty (60) days after the date of the Employee’s death. 

(c) Reimbursements. All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements
of section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Employee’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
taxable 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. 

  
 -18-









 31. Recoupment Policy. Employee acknowledges that Employee shall be subject to and
hereby agrees to abide by the terms of any clawback or recoupment policy that the Company has adopted or may hereafter adopt, as may be amended from time to time, with or without notice (the “Recoupment Policy”) to further the
Company’s interests in enhancing its corporate governance practices and/or to comply with applicable law, rules or regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the rules of the national securities exchange on which
shares of the common stock of the Company are listed for trade. Employee understands that pursuant to the Recoupment Policy, the Company may seek to recoup all or part of any severance payments, bonus or other incentive compensation paid to certain
officers and former officers, including Equity Awards, in the event that the Company is required to restate its financial statements. In consideration of the continued benefits to be received from the Company (or a subsidiary) and the right to
participate in, and receive future awards under, the Company’s cash and equity-based incentive programs, Employee hereby acknowledges, understands and agrees that: 
 (a) The Recoupment Policy applies to severance, cash bonuses and other incentive compensation, including Equity Awards, paid or awarded to Employee prior to or after the date on which the Recoupment
Policy is adopted, and Employee agrees that, to the extent provided in the Recoupment Policy, the Recoupment Policy shall apply to equity and other award agreements outstanding as of the date of this Agreement or hereafter executed, and such
agreements shall be deemed amended by, and to incorporate, the terms of the Recoupment Policy even if the Recoupment Policy is not explicitly referenced therein; 
 (b) The Company shall be fully entitled to enforce the Recoupment Policy against Employee in accordance with its terms, and Employee promptly shall comply with any demand authorized by the Board of
Directors of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Recoupment Policy for repayment, return or rescission of, severance payments, a cash bonus or other incentive compensation, including Equity Awards, subject to the Recoupment Policy; and

 (c) Nothing in this acknowledgement shall be construed to expand the scope or terms of the Recoupment Policy, and Employee is
not waiving any defenses Employee may have in the event of an action for recoupment of compensation under the Recoupment Policy, other than (i) waiving any defense regarding the retroactive application of the Recoupment Policy to prior or
existing payments or awards and (ii) waiving any claim that the integration clause of any agreement excludes the application of the Recoupment Policy.
