to travel to Company’s offices in Seattle periodically to participate in planning and related sales activities. In addition you will be required to travel throughout California in support of strategic sales opportunities. Your primary duties
will be to directly sell the Company’s products, to provide input on the Company’s strategic planning and growth, and to perform other duties consistent with your position, as the Company may assign to you from time to time. You will be
responsible for all aspects of direct sales, from lead generation to pipeline building to sale process to close, and you are expected to work within a defined sales expense budget. By signing this letter, you confirm to the Company that you are
under no contractual or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for the Company.
