provided to Employee by FSI and in view of the provisions of Section 4, Employee and FSI hereby
agree as follows:

     1. Employee acknowledges and agrees:

          a. That in the course of her employment with the Company during and after the Term, Employee
may have access to Confidential Information; that the Company has developed and established and
will continue to develop and establish a valuable and extensive trade in its products and services;
and that the Company would suffer great loss and irreparable injury if Employee were to disclose any of the Confidential Information, or use it in the
solicitation of Customers or use it to compete with the Company.

          b. That in the course of her employment with the Company during and after the Term, Employee
may have access to Customer Information; that Customer Information obtained by Employee during the
course of her employment with the Company is a valuable asset of the Company; and that the Company
would suffer great loss and irreparable injury if Employee were to use Customer Information in the
solicitation of Customers or to otherwise compete with the Company.

     2. a. During her employment with the Company both during and after the Term, and at all times
thereafter, Employee shall maintain in strictest confidence and shall not, without FSI’s express
advance written consent, directly or indirectly (whether through written or printed materials,
electronic media, or oral communications, and whether Employee’s source of information is written
or printed materials, electronic media, oral communications, or her own memory),

               (i) copy, or

               (ii) transmit, publish, communicate, or otherwise disclose or make available, or permit or
cause to be transmitted, published, communicated or otherwise disclosed or made available, to any
other firm, person, corporation or other entity, or

3

 

               (iii) use as owner, director, officer, manager, trustee, partner, employee, independent
contractor, agent, or consultant in any business venture or other enterprise or endeavor,

any Confidential Information or Customer Information.

          b. An exception to the provisions of Paragraph 2(a), above, is that in the scope and course of
her employment with FSI, Employee may, in furtherance of the Company’s business interests,
communicate Confidential Information or Customer Information to other responsible Company
personnel, Customers, and other persons or entities with whom or which the Company has dealings,
who have a need to know such information.

     3. During Employee’s employment with the Company during and after the Term and for a period of
one (1) year following termination of Employee’s employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, and
whether before or after expiration of the Term:

          a. Employee will inform any new employer, prior to accepting employment, of the existence of
this Agreement and provide such employer with a copy of this Agreement.

          b. (i) Except for ownership of one percent (1%) or less of the shares of any company listed on
a national or regional stock exchange, Employee will not own any shares of stock or other ownership
interest, either directly or indirectly, or serve as a director, officer, manager, trustee,

involved in the management, operation, or representation of a business or other enterprise that is
engaged in or about to engage in selling, marketing, producing, distributing, leasing, designing,
or developing a Competing Product in any Restricted Country.

               (ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection b(i), Employee may accept employment with a
business organization that is engaged or about to engage in selling, marketing, producing,
distributing, leasing, or developing a Competing Product in a Restricted Country if (x) such
business organization is diversified to the extent that it has significant operations other than
that portion of the business organization that is engaged or about to engage in selling, marketing,
producing, distributing, leasing, or developing a Competing Product; (y) during the entire one year
period following termination of employment with the Company, such Employee will be rendering services to that portion of the business organization that is not
engaged or about to engage in selling, marketing, producing, distributing, leasing, or developing a
Competing Product; and (z) prior to acceptance of employment by Employee with such business
organization, separate written assurances satisfactory to FSI shall be received and accepted by FSI
from both the Employee and the business organization, in each case stating that during the entire
one year period following termination of employment with the Company, Employee will not be

engaged or about to engage in selling, marketing, producing, distributing, leasing, designing, or
developing a Competing Product.

          c. Employee will not, on behalf of herself or any other person or entity, directly or

4

 

communicated, whether in person,through written or printed materials, or by telephone, electronic mail, or other form of electronic
transmission, during the twenty-four (24) month period ending on the effective date of the
termination of Employee’s employment with the Company. This Paragraph 3(c) shall not be interpreted
to limit or restrict in any way the commitments of Employee set forth in Paragraph 3(b), above.

          d. Employee will not, directly or indirectly, persuade, encourage, or entice, or attempt to
persuade, encourage or entice: employees of the Company to terminate their employment relationship
with the Company; manufacturers or suppliers to adversely alter or modify, or to discontinue, their
relationship with the Company unless at the written request of FSI’s President or Chief Financial
Officer; or Customers to discontinue purchasing from the Company.

     4. If Employee’s employment is involuntarily terminated at the initiative of the Company prior
to the expiration of the Term for reasons other than Cause or Employee’s death or disability, and
provided the termination does not occur within the Transition Period as defined by the Management
Agreement, then:

          a. Base Annual Salary Continuation. Subject to the limitations and conditions of
Paragraph 4(c), FSI shall pay Employee an amount equal to six months of Employee’s Base Annual
Salary without right of offset, but not to exceed a maximum amount under this Paragraph 4(a) of two
times the lesser of:

               (i) The Code § 401(a)(17) compensation limit for the year in which the Termination Date
occurs; or

               (ii) Employee’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay for services to the
Company for the calendar year prior to the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs
(adjusted for any increase during that year that was expected to continue indefinitely if the
Employee had not separated from service).

Subject to the maximum limits of this Paragraph 4(a) and the limitations and conditions of
Paragraph 4(c), such Base Annual Salary continuation shall be paid to Employee in accordance with
FSI’s regular payroll schedule at the Base Annual Salary rate, commencing on the first regular
payroll date of FSI following the Termination Date and continuing for six months. The Company and
Employee intend the payments under this Paragraph 4(a) to be a “separation pay plan due to
involuntary separation from service” under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii).

          b. Supplemental Salary Continuation. Subject to the limitations and conditions of
Paragraph 4(c), FSI shall pay Employee an amount equal to six months of Employee’s Base Annual
Salary without right of offset, payable in accordance with FSI’s regular payroll schedule at the Base Annual Salary rate, commencing on the first regular payroll date of
FSI that occurs following completion of all payments under Paragraph 4(a) and continuing for six
months. The Company and Employee intend the payments under this Paragraph 4(b) to be deferred
compensation payable in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

5

 

          c. Release Requirement. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, FSI
shall not be obligated to make any payments under this Section 4 (the “Severance Pay”) unless
Employee has signed and not rescinded a release of claims in favor of the Company and its
affiliates and its and their employees, directors, officers, insurers, and agents in a form to be
prescribed by FSI, all applicable consideration periods and rescission periods provided by law
shall have expired and Employee is in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement as of the
dates of the payments.

     5. Employee hereby agrees to assign (and hereby does assign) to FSI all of Employee’s right,
title and interest to all discoveries, improvements, processes, concepts, analyses, evaluations,
methods, formulas, techniques and ideas (whether or not shown or described in writing or reduced to
practice) and works of authorship, including any products, designs, studies and/or services derived
therefrom, whether or not patentable or copyrightable, and including any applications for Letters
Patent and to Letters Patent granted, including foreign Letters Patent,

	 	(i)	 	which, at the time of conception or reduction
to practice, relate directly to FSI’s business or to FSI’s actual or
demonstrably anticipated research and development, or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	which result from any work performed by
Employee for FSI, or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	for which equipment, supplies, facilities, or
trade secret information of FSI is used, or
	 
	 	(iv)	 	which are developed on FSI time (hereinafter
“Inventions”).

Employee also hereby agrees to apply, at FSI’s request and expense, for the United States and any
foreign Letters Patent, or copyright, either in Employee’s name or otherwise as FSI shall
determine, relating to all such Inventions. Employee agrees to promptly and fully disclose and
describe all Inventions to FSI and to keep accurate, complete and timely records of such
Inventions, such records to be the property of FSI and to be retained on its premises. Employee
further agrees to notify FSI promptly, in writing, of any application for United States or foreign
Letters Patent or copyright filed by her on her behalf, as inventor, co-inventor, author, or
co-author, within twelve months following termination of Employee’s employment with FSI, whether
such termination is voluntary or involuntary, and whether or not such termination occurs before or
after expiration of the Term. Such written notification shall include a description of the work
that is the subject of the application that is sufficient to allow FSI to determine whether it has
any property interest in the work. Failure to so notify FSI will create a presumption that the
work that is the subject of the Letters Patent or copyright is the property of FSI. FSI agrees to
maintain in confidence information supplied by Employee pursuant to this Section 5, except that FSI
reserves the right to disclose such information to the extent necessary to protect its interests
pursuant to this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 5 shall apply to any Invention for which no
equipment, supplies, facility or trade secret information of FSI was used and which was developed
entirely on Employee’s own time, and (1) which does not relate at the time of conception or
reduction to practice (a) directly to the business of FSI or (b) to FSI’s actual or

6

 

 demonstrably anticipated research and development, or (2) which does not result from any work
performed for FSI.

     6. Except as listed at the end of this Agreement in Exhibit A, Employee will not assert any
rights under any Inventions as having been made, authored, or acquired by Employee prior to her
being employed by FSI.

     7. Upon termination of her employment with FSI and upon termination of any subsequent
employment with the Company, whether before or after expiration of the Term, Employee agrees to
deliver promptly to FSI or its designee all records, manuals, books, blank forms, documents,
letters, memoranda, notes, notebooks, reports, data, tables, photographs, videotapes, audio tapes,
computer disks or other form of computer storage, and calculations or copies thereof, whether in
written or printed materials or electronic media of any kind or nature, which are the property of
the Company or which relate in any way to the business, products, practices, or techniques of the
Company and all other property, Confidential Information, and Customer Information including, but
not limited to, all documents and electronic media which in whole or in part contain any
Confidential Information or Customer Information, whether or not constituting intellectual property
or trade secrets, which in any of these cases are in her possession or under her control. Employee
shall be permitted to retain personal correspondence, documents and items which contain no
Confidential Information or Customer Information; prior to removing any such personal materials,
Employee will review them with a representative designated by FSI.

     8. During her employment with the Company both during and after the Term, and at all times
thereafter, Employee will not malign, defame or disparage the reputation, character, image,
products or services of the Company, or the reputation or character of the Company’s directors,
officers, employees or agents.

     9. Employee’s employment is at-will. Either the Employee or FSI may terminate Employee’s
employment at any time for any reason, with or without notice and with or without cause. Neither
this Agreement, in whole or in part, nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving
Employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Company for any particular period of time
nor shall it otherwise limit FSI’s right to terminate the employment of Employee at any time, with
or without cause or reason, or the Employee’s right to resign.

     10. Employee specifically acknowledges and agrees that the terms and conditions of the above
restrictive covenants are reasonable and necessary for the protection of FSI business, Confidential
Information, and Customer Information, whether or not characterized as intellectual property or
trade secrets, and to prevent damage or loss to FSI as a result of any action taken by Employee,
and further that the above restrictive covenants are supported by good and sufficient consideration
that exceeds the benefits that Employee would be entitled to receive from the Company in the
absence of this Agreement.

     11. Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that any breach by Employee of the foregoing
provisions may cause FSI irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law.
Therefore, Employee expressly agrees that FSI shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies
available, to injunctive and/or other equitable relief to require specific performance or

7

 

prevent a breach under the provisions of this Agreement. Employee further agrees that any delay by the
Company in assertion of a right under this Agreement, or any failure by the Company to assert a
right under this Agreement, does not constitute a waiver by the Company of any right hereunder, and
the Company may subsequently assert any or all of its rights hereunder as if the delay or failure
to assert rights had not occurred.

     12. In the event that any portion of this Agreement may be held to be invalid or unenforceable
for any reason, it is hereby agreed that said invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the
other portions of this Agreement and that the remaining terms and conditions or portions hereof
shall remain in full force and effect and any court of competent jurisdiction may so modify the
objectionable provision as to make it valid, reasonable, and enforceable.

     13. No rights or obligations of Employee or FSI hereunder may be assigned, pledged, disposed
of or transferred by such party to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of
the other party, except that FSI may, without the consent of Employee, assign its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to the Company or to any corporation or other business entity (i)
with which FSI may merge or consolidate, or (ii) to which the Company may sell or transfer all or
substantially all of its assets or capital stock. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall be
enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective, permitted successors and assignees. This
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota.

     14. Except for the Management Agreement, this Agreement supersedes any previous agreement,
written or oral, between FSI and Employee relating to the same subject matter, including without
limitation the Prior Agreement. This Agreement may be otherwise amended or terminated only by a
subsequent agreement in writing signed by Employee and a director of FSI.

     15. Survival. The parties acknowledge and agree that certain provisions of this
Agreement, including but not limited to, Sections 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 8, impose obligations that
according to their terms survive termination of Employee’s employment. All such provisions shall
survive termination of Employee’s employment.

     16. Notices. All notices, requests and demands given to or made pursuant hereto shall
be in writing and shall be delivered or mailed to any such party at its address which:
