unable because of your unavailability, mental or physical incapacity, or for any other similar reason, to secure your signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents or copyright registrations covering
the Inventions assigned to Company above, then you hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as your agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on your behalf and stead to execute and file any such
applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patents and copyright registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by you.

the Company, its products, customers, and its methods of doing business. You shall have access to confidential records and data pertaining to the Company’s customers and to the relationship between these customers and the Company. Such
information is considered secret and is disclosed to you in confidence. During your employment by the Company subsequent to termination of your employment for any reason, you shall not directly or indirectly disclose or use any such information, or
assist or facilitate such disclosure or use by any unauthorized third party except as required in the course of your employment and as authorized by the Company.

affiliates to leave the Company for any reason, or (ii) solicit business from or perform services for any customer, vendor, supplier, partner, licensee or business relation of Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or induce or
attempt to induce any such individual or entity to cease doing business with the Company or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such individual or entity and the Company. 
 15. Dispute Resolution: You understand and agree that you will settle any and all previously unasserted claims, disputes or controversies
arising out of or relating to your application or candidacy for employment, employment and/or cessation of employment with the Company or against any of its current and former officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, exclusively by
final and binding arbitration in Los Angeles, California by the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA”) under the then current AAA rules related to employment disputes, before a single neutral arbitrator mutually agreed to by the

or the use and/or unauthorized disclosure of trade secrets or confidential information; and (iii) administrative claims before the Department of Fair Employment and Housing or the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the
Department of Labor Standards Enforcement. 
 You understand and agree that such claims subject to arbitration include, but are not limited to,
any claims for violation of any alleged contract, express or implied; any covenant of good faith and fair dealing, whether express or implied; any tort; any federal, state, or local statute or regulation, including but not limited to the Federal
Fair Labor Standards Act, the California Labor Code and the California Industrial Welfare Commission Orders; any federal, state, or local statute or regulation based on or related to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the California Fair
Employment and Housing Act (Government Code sections 12900-12996); Title VII, Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U.S.C. sections 2000-2000(e)-l-17); the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Federal Family Medical Leave Act; and the California Family
Rights Act. You understand and agree to waive any right to join or consolidate claims in arbitration with others or to make claims in arbitration as a representative or as a member of a class or in a private attorney general capacity.

other. The arbitration demand shall set forth the basis and nature of all claims being asserted and must be made within the timeframe authorized by the applicable statute of limitations to make such claims under applicable law. The fees of the
arbitrator and all other costs that are unique to arbitration shall be paid by the Company. Each party shall be solely responsible for paying its own costs for the arbitration including but not limited to its own attorneys’ fees and expert
witness fees. However, if either party prevails on a statutory claim which affords the prevailing party their attorneys’ fees or where there is a written agreement providing for such fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys’
fees to the prevailing party. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any damages authorized by law. The award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall contain the arbitrator’s factual findings, legal conclusions and reasons for
the award and shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court with jurisdiction over either the Company or me. Both parties agree to keep the fact of, findings and award of arbitration, if any, confidential and will execute
all necessary documents thereto. This Arbitration provision applies to any dispute involving the Company as well as any of its parent, subsidiary or affiliated companies, successors and assigns, employees, officers and agents. This agreement,
including and any claims brought pursuant to this arbitration provision, shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
