(c) “Annual Compensation” means the sum of (x) the greater of the Eligible Employee’s Base
Salary in effect (A) immediately prior to the date of the Change in Control or (B) immediately prior to the date of termination of the Eligible Employee (or, if the termination is for Good Reason, immediately prior to the event set forth
in the notice of termination given in accordance with Section 15 of this Plan), and (y) the Eligible Employee’s Average Bonus. 
 (d) “Anticipatory Termination” means a termination of an Employee made in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control at the request of, or upon the initiative of,

 (e) “Average Bonus” means the average of all Bonuses paid or payable to an Eligible Employee in respect of the three Fiscal Years ended prior to the Fiscal Year in which the employment of
the Eligible Employee is terminated (or, if the Eligible Employee was not an Employee during each of such Fiscal Years, such lesser number of Fiscal Years during which the Eligible Employee was an Employee); provided that for purposes of calculating
“Average Bonus”: 
 (i) any pro-rated Bonus awarded to the Eligible Employee for a Fiscal Year in which
the Employee was employed for less than the full Fiscal Year shall be annualized;

Fiscal Year; 
 (iii) if the Eligible Employee was promoted to a more senior position in connection with the

 (a) Severance Pay. 

(1) Each such Eligible Employee who is an Executive shall be entitled to receive severance pay from his or her Employer in
a lump sum amount equal to the sum of: 
 (i) the Eligible Employee’s Severance Multiple, multiplied
by the Eligible Employee’s Annual Compensation; and 
 (ii) either: (a) if determinable on the date of

entitled to receive severance pay from his or her Employer in a lump sum amount equal to the sum of:

either: (a) if determinable on the date of termination (i.e., by way of a formula or calculation applied on a basis consistent with past 

  
 6 








 
practice), the Actual Bonus for the Eligible Employee’s actual period of service during the year of termination, or (b) the Average Bonus multiplied by the Bonus Fraction; plus

 (ii) four (4) weeks of the Eligible Employee’s Annual Compensation; plus 

(iii) two (2) or three (3) weeks (as determined by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company on or prior to

however, that the sum of the amounts determined under clauses (ii) and (iii) above shall be limited to the amount of the Eligible Employee’s Annual Compensation (i.e., 52 weeks of the Eligible Employee’s Annual
Compensation). 
 (b) Medical, Dental and Life Insurance Benefit Continuation. 

(1) For each Eligible Employee who is an Executive, for a period of years (or fractions thereof) equal to the Severance
Multiple following the Eligible Employee’s termination of employment (the “Executive Welfare Continuation Period”), the Eligible Employee and such Eligible Employee’s spouse and dependents (each as defined under the
applicable program) shall receive the following benefits: (x) medical and dental insurance coverages at the same benefit levels as provided to the Eligible Employee immediately prior to the Change in Control, for which the Company will
(A) reimburse the Eligible Employee during the first 18 months of the Executive Welfare Continuation Period or, if shorter, the period of actual COBRA continuation coverage received by the Eligible Employee during the Executive Welfare
Continuation Period, for the total amount of the monthly COBRA medical and dental insurance premiums payable by the Eligible Employee for such continued benefits in excess of the cost the Eligible Employee paid for such coverage (on a monthly
premium basis) immediately prior to such termination of employment and (B) provide such coverage for any remaining portion of the Executive Welfare Continuation Period at the same cost to the Eligible Employee as is generally provided to
similarly situated active employees of the Company (or, if it is not possible, or is cost-prohibitive for the Company to provide such coverage for such remaining portion, the Company will pay the Eligible Employee a cash lump sum payment equal to
the premiums the Company would have paid if the Eligible Employee had remained an active employer, subject to Section 4 hereof), provided, however, that if, during the Executive Welfare Continuation Period, the Eligible Employee
becomes employed by a new employer, continuing medical and dental coverage from the Company will become secondary to any coverage afforded by the new employer in which the Eligible Employee becomes enrolled); and (y) life insurance coverage at
the same benefit level as provided to the Eligible Employee immediately prior to the Change in Control and at the same cost to the Eligible 

  
 7 








 
Employee as is generally provided to similarly situated active employees of the Company (or if such coverage is no longer provided by the Company, then at the Employee’s cost immediately
prior to the Change in Control). 
 (2) For each Eligible Employee who is not an Executive, for a period not to
exceed the number of weeks of Annual Compensation payable to the Eligible Employee pursuant to Section 2(a)(2) above, (the “Employee Welfare Continuation Period”), the Eligible Employee and such Eligible Employee’s spouse
and dependents (each as defined under the applicable program) shall receive the following benefits: (x) medical and dental insurance coverages at the same benefit levels as provided to the Eligible Employee immediately prior to the Change in
Control, for which the Company will reimburse the Eligible Employee during the first 52 weeks of the Employee Welfare Continuation Period or, if shorter, the period of actual COBRA continuation coverage received by the Eligible Employee during the
Employee Welfare Continuation Period, for the total amount of the monthly COBRA medical and dental insurance premiums payable by the Eligible Employee for such continued benefits in excess of the cost the Eligible Employee paid for such coverage (on
a monthly premium basis) immediately prior to such termination of employment, provided, however, that if, during the Employee Welfare Continuation Period, the Eligible Employee becomes employed by a new employer, continuing medical and
dental coverage from the Company will become secondary to any coverage afforded by the new employer in which the Eligible Employee becomes enrolled); and (y) life insurance coverage at the same benefit level as provided to the Eligible Employee
immediately prior to the Change in Control and at the same cost to the Eligible Employee as is generally provided to similarly situated active employees of the Company (or if such coverage is no longer provided by the Company, then at the
Employee’s cost immediately prior to the Change in Control). 
 (c) Outplacement. Such Eligible
Employee shall receive reasonable outplacement services to be provided by a provider selected by such Eligible Employee, the cost of which shall be borne by the Company. 

(d) Accrued Benefits. Such Eligible Employee shall be entitled to receive any unpaid Base Salary through the date
of such Eligible Employee’s termination, any Bonus earned but unpaid as of the date of such Eligible Employee’s termination for any previously completed Fiscal Year (which, if not determinable by way of a formula or calculation applied on
a basis consistent with past practice, shall be an amount equal to the Eligible Employee’s Average Bonus), and all compensation previously deferred by such Eligible Employee but not yet paid as well as all accrued interest thereon. In addition,
such Eligible Employee shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement of any unreimbursed expenses properly incurred by such Eligible Employee in accordance with Company policies prior to the date of such Eligible Employee’s termination. Such
Eligible Employee shall also be able to receive and enjoy such other benefits, if any, to which such Eligible Employee may be entitled pursuant to the terms and conditions of (1) the employee compensation, incentive, equity, benefit or fringe
benefit plans, policies or programs of the Company, other than any Company severance policy and as provided in Section 12(a) of this Plan, and (2) the indemnification and D&O insurance plans, policies or programs of the Company.


  
 8 








 Section 3. Form and Time of Payment. The cash severance pay benefits payable to
an Eligible Employee under Section 2 above shall be paid to such Eligible Employee in a single lump sum less applicable withholdings under Section 4 of this Plan within 75 days after the Eligible Employee’s date of termination,
except with respect to any additional bonus amount payable after such time period to the extent required pursuant to Section 2(d) above and except as provided pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 of this Plan; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to pay or continue to pay the cash severance pay benefits in the event such Eligible Employee does not sign a Release or such Eligible Employee revokes the Release during the time to revoke, if any; and provided,
further, that if the designated period for executing such a Release spans two calendar years, the cash severance pay benefits payable under Section 2 above shall be paid to such Eligible Employee in the second calendar year. 

Section 4. Tax Withholding and Section 409A. Each Employer shall withhold from any amount payable to an Eligible
Employee pursuant to this Plan, and shall remit to the appropriate governmental authority, any income, employment or other tax the Employer is required by applicable law to so withhold from and remit on behalf of such Eligible Employee.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or certain compensation and benefit plans of the Employer, any payments or benefits due under this Plan or such Employer compensation and benefit plans upon or in connection with a termination of an
Eligible Employee’s employment shall be paid, and this Plan shall be interpreted, in a manner that shall ensure that any such payments or benefits shall not be subject to any tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code (including, for
the avoidance of doubt, by requiring that the payment of any severance due under Section 2 of this Plan to an Employee who is a “specified employee” within the meaning of the Section 409A of the Code be deferred until the date
that is six months following such termination of the Employee’s employment, to the extent such delay is required to comply with Section 409A of the Code). Each payment made under this Plan shall be designated as a “separate
payment” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to an Employee under this Plan constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, any such
reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to such Employee in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv). To the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, in the event a transaction or series of transactions
is a Change in Control under this Plan but is not also a “change in the ownership of the Company,” a “change in the effective control of the Company,” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the
Company’s assets,” as such terms are defined in Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) of the Treasury Regulations, the benefits set forth in Section 2 shall be paid at such time and in such form as required by Section 409A of the Code.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to any Eligible Employee to the extent that any payment or benefit hereunder is determined to be subject to any tax or interest
under Section 409A of the Code. 
 Section 5. Limitation of Certain Payments. 

(a) In the event the Company determines, based upon the advice of the independent public accountants for the Company, that
part or all of the consideration, 

  
 9 








 
compensation or benefits to be paid to an Employee under this Plan constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, as amended, then, if the aggregate present
value of such parachute payments, singularly or together with the aggregate present value of any consideration, compensation or benefits to be paid to Employee under any other plan, arrangement or agreement which constitute “parachute
payments” (collectively, the “Parachute Amount”) exceeds 2.99 times the Employee’s “base amount,” as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code (the “Employee Base Amount”), the
amounts constituting “parachute payments” which would otherwise be payable to or for the benefit of Employee shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that the Parachute Amount is equal to 2.99 times the Employee Base Amount (the
“Reduced Amount”); provided that such amounts shall not be so reduced if the Company determines, based upon the advice of an independent nationally recognized public accounting firm (which may, but need not be the independent
public accountants of the Company), that without such reduction Employee would be entitled to receive and retain, on a net after-tax basis (including, without limitation, any excise taxes payable under Section 4999 of the Code), an amount which
is greater than the amount, on a net after tax basis, that the Employee would be entitled to retain upon his receipt of the Reduced Amount. 
 (b) If the determination made pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 5 results in a reduction of the payments that would otherwise be paid to Employee except for the application of
clause (a) of this Section 5, the reduction shall be made in the following order: (a) first, any stock options whose exercise price is less than the fair market value of the Company’s stock in a transaction subject to
Section 280G of the Code shall be cancelled, and (b) second, cash payments set forth in Section 2(a) shall be reduced, each to the minimum extent as required by the operation of this Section 5, and such reductions shall be made
otherwise in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Determinations hereunder shall take into account the exclusion for reasonable compensation for services to be rendered (including agreements not to render
services) after a change in control in accordance with Section 280G of the Code. 
 (c) As a result of
potential uncertainty in the application of Section 280G of the Code at the time of a determination hereunder, it is possible that payments will be made by the Employer which should not have been made under clause (a) of this
Section 5 (“Overpayment”) or that additional payments which are not made by the Employer pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 5 should have been made (“Underpayment”). In the event that there is a
final determination by the Internal Revenue Service, or a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction, that an Overpayment has been made, any such Overpayment shall be repaid by Employee to the Employer together with interest at the
applicable Federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. In the event that there is a final determination by the Internal Revenue Service, a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction or a change in the provisions
of the Code or regulations pursuant to which an Underpayment arises under this Plan, any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Employer to or for the benefit of Employee, together with interest at the applicable Federal rate provided for
in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.

 Section 6. Plan Administration. This Plan shall be administered by the
Compensation Committee of the Board or, following a Change in Control, such other successor body as is designated by the acquiror in the Change in Control transaction (the “Committee”). Subject to the provisions of Section 7 of
this Plan, the Committee shall have discretionary and final authority to interpret and implement the provisions of this Plan and to determine eligibility for benefits under the Plan. The Committee shall perform all of the duties and exercise all of
the powers and discretion that the Committee deems necessary or appropriate for the proper administration of this Plan. The Committee may adopt such rules and regulations for the administration of this Plan as are consistent with the terms hereof,
and shall keep adequate records of its proceedings and acts. The Committee may employ such agents, accountants and legal counsel (who may be agents, accountants and legal counsel for an Employer) as may be appropriate for the administration of the
Plan. All reasonable administration expenses incurred by the Committee in connection with the administration of the Plan shall be paid by the Employer. 
 Section 7. Dispute Resolution. Any dispute hereunder or with regard to any document or agreement referred to herein shall be resolved by arbitration before the American Arbitration Association
in New York City, New York. The determination of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 8. Applicable Law. This Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with applicable federal law; provided, however, that wherever such law does not otherwise preempt state law,
the laws of the State of New York shall govern. 
 Section 9. Legal Fees. All reasonable legal fees and expenses
incurred by an Eligible Employee in connection with any non-frivolous claim made pursuant to this Plan shall be borne by the Company. 
 Section 10. Plan Amendment and Termination. Prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, each of the Board and the Committee shall have the right and power at any time, and from time to
time, subject to thirty (30) days advance written notice to all Employees (which notice requirement may be satisfied by a public filing with the SEC on Form 8-K or otherwise), to amend or terminate this Plan, in whole or in part;
provided, that no such amendment or termination shall be effective if made in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control at the request of, or upon the initiative of, the acquiror in the Change in Control transaction or
otherwise in connection with or anticipation of the Change in Control. After the occurrence of a Change in Control and during the two-year period beginning on the effective date of the Change in Control, this Plan may not be amended in a manner that
would materially, adversely affect Employees’ rights under the Plan or terminated without the consent of a majority of the Employees who are employed by an Employer at the time of the proposed amendment or termination or who are Eligible
Employees receiving severance benefits pursuant to Section 2 of this Plan at such time. Any action to amend or terminate this Plan on or after the date on which a Change in Control occurs, without the foregoing consent, shall not be effective
prior to the end of the two-year period beginning on the effective date of the Change in Control. 

  
 11 









 Section 11. Nature of Plan and Rights. This Plan is an unfunded employee welfare
benefit plan and no provision of this Plan shall be deemed or construed to create a trust fund of any kind or to grant a property interest of any kind to any Employee or former Employee. Any payment which becomes due under this Plan to an Eligible
Employee shall be made by his or her Employer out of its general assets, and the right of any Eligible Employee to receive a payment hereunder from his or her Employer shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of such
Employer. 
 Section 12. Entire Agreement; Offset; No Interference. 

(a) This Plan constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and, except as expressly provided herein, supersedes
the provisions of all other prior agreements expressly concerning the payment of severance benefits upon a termination of employment in connection with or following a Change in Control; provided, that in no event shall payments or benefits
provided pursuant to any other severance agreement or policy entitle Employee to a duplication of payments and benefits pursuant to this Plan and, in the event of an Anticipatory Termination, any amount payable hereunder shall be offset and reduced
by the amount of any termination payments or benefits previously provided to Employee under any other severance arrangement with the Company. 
 (b) Except as expressly provided herein, this Plan shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company to reduce Employee’s compensation or other benefits or terminate Employee’s
employment, with or without Cause. Any rights that Employee shall have in that regard shall be as set forth in any applicable employment agreement between Employee and the Company. 

Section 13. Anticipatory Changes. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, no Employee shall suffer
any reduction in the level of protections or benefits that would otherwise be enjoyed by the Employee hereunder as a result of any adverse change (including without limitation any such change in Base Salary; Target Bonus; assumptions or calculation
methodology used for determining Actual Bonus; insurance coverages; or rank or status as an Executive or Employee), made in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control at the request of, or upon the initiative of, the acquiror in the
Change in Control transaction or otherwise in connection with or anticipation of the Change in Control (each, an “Anticipatory Change”). In the event of any such Anticipatory Change, the provisions of this Agreement shall be
applied, and any amounts under this Agreement shall be calculated, as if such Anticipatory Change had not occurred. 

Section 14. Spendthrift Provision. No right or interest of an Eligible Employee under this Plan may be assigned, transferred
or alienated, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law, and no such right or interest shall be liable for or subject to any debt, obligation or liability of such Eligible Employee. 

Section 15. Notice. Notice of termination for Cause or for Good Reason shall be given in accordance with this Section, and
shall indicate the specific termination provision under the Plan relied upon, the relevant facts and circumstances and the effective date of termination. For the purpose of this Plan, any notice and all other communication provided for in this Plan

 Exhibit A 
 CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-COMPETITION RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS 
 I. While employed by the
Company, and at any time thereafter, no Eligible Employee shall, without the prior written consent of the Company, use, divulge, disclose or make accessible to any other person, firm, partnership, corporation or other entity any Confidential
Information pertaining to the business of the Company or any of its affiliates, except when required to do so by applicable law, by a court, by any governmental agency, or by any administrative body or legislative body (including a committee
thereof); provided, however, that the Eligible Employee shall give reasonable notice under the circumstances to the Company that he or she has been notified that he or she will be required to so disclose as soon as possible after receipt of such
notice in order to permit the Company to take whatever action it reasonably deems necessary to prevent such disclosure and the Eligible Employee shall cooperate with the Company to the extent that it reasonably requests him or her to do so. For
purposes of this paragraph I, “Confidential Information” shall mean non-public information concerning the financial data, strategic business plans, product development (or other proprietary product data), customer lists, marketing plans
and other non-public, proprietary and confidential information of the Company, its subsidiaries, its affiliates or customers, that, in any case, is not otherwise available to the public (other than by the Eligible Employee’s breach of the terms
hereof). 
 II. In consideration of the Company’s obligations under the Plan to which this Exhibit A is attached, each Eligible Employee
agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months after termination of employment with his or her Employer, without the prior written consent of the Board, and which period may be extended, at the Eligible Employee’s discretion, up to a
period of time commensurate with the Eligible Employee’s Severance Multiple as defined in the Plan, (A) he or she will not, directly or indirectly, either as principal, manager, agent, consultant, officer, stockholder, partner, investor,
lender or employee or in any other capacity, carry on, be engaged in or have any financial interest in, any (i) entity which is in Competition with the business of the Company or its subsidiaries or (ii) Competitive Activity and
(B) he or she shall not, on his or her own behalf or on behalf of any person, firm or company, directly or indirectly, solicit or offer employment to any person who is or has been employed by the Company or its subsidiaries at any time during
the twelve (12) months immediately preceding such solicitation. For purposes of this paragraph II: (a) an entity shall be deemed to be in “Competition” with the Company or its subsidiaries if it is principally involved in the
purchase, sale or other dealing in any property or the rendering of any service purchased, sold, dealt in or rendered by the Company or its subsidiaries as a part of the business of the Company or its subsidiaries within the same geographic area in
which the Company effects such sales or dealings or renders such services at the Relevant Date; and (b) “Competitive Activity” shall mean any business into which the Company or any of its subsidiaries has taken substantial steps to
engage, as of the Relevant Date, which would be deemed to be in Competition with the business of the Company or its subsidiaries if such steps had been completed prior to the Relevant Date; and (c) the term “Relevant Date” shall mean
the effective date of termination of Employee’s employment with his or her Employer.

 III. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Exhibit A, nothing herein shall (i) prohibit any
Eligible Employee from serving as an officer, employee or independent consultant of any business unit or subsidiary which would not otherwise be in Competition with the Company or its subsidiaries or a Competitive Activity, but which business unit
is a part of, or which subsidiary is controlled by, or under common control with, an entity that would be in competition with the Company or its subsidiaries, so long as the Eligible Employee does not engage in any activity which is in Competition
with any business of the Company or its subsidiaries or is otherwise a Competitive Activity or (ii) be construed so as to preclude the Eligible Employee from investing in any publicly or privately held company, provided the Eligible
Employee’s beneficial ownership of any class of such company’s securities does not exceed 5% of the outstanding securities of such class. 
 IV. In the event the Company determines that an Eligible Employee has breached the covenants contained in this Exhibit A, the Company may, in addition to pursuing any other remedies it may have in law or
in equity, cease making any payments otherwise required by this Plan and/or obtain an injunction against the Eligible Employee from any court having jurisdiction over the matter restraining any further violation of this Exhibit A by the Eligible
Employee. Further, if in the opinion of any court of competent jurisdiction any of the restraints identified herein is not reasonable in any respect, such court shall have the right, power and authority to excise or modify such provision or
provisions of this covenant as to the court shall appear not reasonable and to enforce the remainder of the covenant as so amended.
