 7. Change in Control of the Company. 

(a) If a Change of Control (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) occurs and if during the Protected Period (as defined in Exhibit A
attached hereto), Employee’s employment is terminated or not renewed pursuant to Section 10, whether by the Company or by Employee, then the Company shall promptly pay or otherwise provide to Employee the benefits set forth below:

 (i) An amount equal to Employee’s Annual Base Salary then in effect, payable in a single lump sum by
certified or bank cashier’s check within 30 days of such termination; and 
 (ii) An amount equal to the
product of (A) the maximum monthly premium payment that may be charged to continue coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan under COBRA and under all life insurance and disability
policies provided by Employer for Employee, multiplied by (B) 12 months (payable over such period). Any unpaid amount under this clause (ii) will cease if Employee obtains substantially similar coverage under new employment. 

The Company will use its best efforts to keep the policies of insurance referred to in clause (ii) above in effect for the benefit of the Employee
through the 12 month period, and after the expiration of such 12 month period, if the Employee is unable to secure reasonable alternative coverage as a result of lack of insurability, at the written request of the Employee, the Company will use
reasonable commercial efforts to continue such coverage, provided that the Company will have no obligation to incur any incremental cost or risk (other than minor administration inconvenience) and Employee shall agree in writing to bear all such
cost and risk and hold the Company harmless against same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall not be entitled to any benefits under this Section 7 if such termination is (i) due to Employee’s death, (ii) by the Company
on account of Employee’s disability as provided in Section 10(d) below, (iii) by the Company for Cause (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) or (iv) by Employee for other than Good Reason (as defined in Exhibit A attached
hereto) as provided in Section 10 below. 
 8. Gross-Up of Parachute Payments. 

(a) To provide Employee with adequate protection in connection with Employee’s ongoing employment with the Company, this Agreement or
other incentive plans of the Company provide Employee with various benefits in the event of termination of Employee’s employment with the Company during the Protected Period. If Employee’s employment is terminated or not renewed pursuant
to Section 10 during a Protected Period or otherwise in connection with a “change of control” of the Company, within the meaning of Section 2806 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), a portion
of those benefits could be characterized as “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 2806 of the Code. The parties hereto acknowledge that the protections set forth in this Section 8 are important, and it is
agreed that Employee should not have to bear the full burden of the excise tax that might be levied under Section 4999 of the Code or any similar provision of state or federal law, in the event that any portion of the benefits payable to
Employee pursuant to this Agreement or the other incentive plans of the Company are treated as an excess parachute payment. The parties, therefore, have agreed as set forth in this Section 8. 

  
 3 

 (b) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if it shall be determined
that any payment or distribution (including income recognized by Employee upon the early vesting of restricted property or upon the exercise of options whose exercise date has been accelerated) by the Company or any other person to or for the
benefit of Employee (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section 8) (a “Payment”)
would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar provision of state or federal law or any interest or penalties are incurred by Employee with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall pay an additional payment, not to exceed $250,000 in the aggregate (a “Gross-Up Payment”), in an amount such that
after payment by Employee of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed on
the Gross-Up Payment, Employee retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to fifty percent (50%) the Excise Tax imposed on the Payments. The Employee will bear the cost of the remaining 50% until the aggregate Gross Payments from the
Company have reached $250,000, and will thereafter bear all additional taxes, interest or penalties. 
 (c) In the event of any
dispute as to the applicability or amount of any Gross-Up Payment, all determinations required to be made under this Section 8, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the
assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by the independent accounting firm regularly employed by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the
Company and to Employee within 15 business days after the receipt of notice from Employee that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be borne by the Company.
If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Employee, it shall furnish Employee with a written statement that failure to report the Excise Tax on Employee’s applicable federal income tax return would not result in the
imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding on the Company and Employee unless and until a final determination is received from the Internal, Revenue Service indicating a contrary result.
As a result or uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments may not have been made by the Company that should have
been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. If the Employee thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that
has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Employee, consistent with the maximum limitation stated in paragraph 8(b) above. In the event it is determined by the Accounting Firm that the
Gross Payments previously made by the Company exceeded the limitations stated in paragraph 8(b) above, upon written notice from the Company, accompanied by a copy of the Accounting Firm’s calculation of same, the amount of such overpayment
shall be promptly paid by the Employee to the Company.

 9. Options and Other Stock-Related Plans. The terms and conditions of any option,
stock or equity bonus, restricted stock or equity, equity award or other equity-related plan or program with respect to capital stock or partnership interests of the Company which may be granted to Employee or in which Employee may participate shall
be governed by the applicable Company plan, if any, and/or separate agreement(s) between the Company and Employee with respect thereto. 
 10. Termination or Non-Renewal of Employment. 
 (a) Termination by
Either Party: General Provisions. Either the Company or Employee may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder at any time during the term of this Agreement by delivery of ninety (90) days prior written notice by the terminating party
to the other party. Promptly after such termination of employment, in addition to any other payments or benefits provided in this Section 10, the Company shall pay to Employee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Employee’s earned
but unpaid Annual Base Salary through the date of termination of employment at the rate in effect at the time of such termination, (ii) vacation pay earned but not taken to the date of such termination, and (iii) all other amounts
previously deferred by Employee or earned but not paid as of such date under all Company incentive or deferred compensation plans or programs. 
 (b) Termination for Cause: Resignation without Good Reason. If the Company terminates Employee’s employment for Cause, or if the Employee terminates employment without Good Reason, the
payments due to Employee shall be limited to the amounts described in Section 10(a). 
 (c) Termination Without Cause:
Termination for Good Reason. If the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause (except as provided in Section 10(d) below), or if the Employee terminates Employee’s employment for Good Reason, then the Company shall
promptly pay or otherwise provide to Employee the following amounts in addition to those set forth in Section 10(a): 
 (i) An amount equal to Employee’s Annual Base Salary then in effect, payable in a single lump sum by certified or bank cashier’s check within 30 days of such termination; and 

(ii) An amount equal to the product of (A) the maximum monthly premium payment that may be charged to continue
coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan under COBRA, and under all life insurance and disability policies provided by Employer for Employee multiplied by (B) 12 months (payable over
such period). Any unpaid amount under this clause (ii) will cease if Employee obtains substantially similar coverage under new employment. 

  
 5 

 (d) Termination on Disability. If at any time during the term of Employee’s
employment hereunder, Employee is unable due to physical or mental disability, to perform effectively Employee’s duties hereunder, the Company shall continue payment of salary as provided in Section 4 during the first 3 month period of
such disability to the extent not covered by the Company’s disability insurance policies (the Company may offset against its obligations in this sentence the amounts actually received by the Employee under such policies). Upon the expiration of
such 3 month period, the Company, at its sole option, may continue payment of Employee’s salary for such additional periods as the Company elects, or may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder without any further compensation
obligations to Employee hereunder. If Employee should die during the term of Employee’s employment hereunder, Employee’s employment and the Company’s obligations hereunder for compensation payments shall terminate as of the end of the
month in which Employee’s death occurs. 
 (e) Non-Renewal of Employment; General Provisions. Either the Company or
Employee may elect not to renew Employee’s employment hereunder at the end of the Initial Period, or at the end of any Additional Period thereafter, by delivery of ninety (90) days prior written notice by the electing party to the other
party. At the expiration of the employment term (in addition to any other amounts provided in Section 10(f) below in the case of a non-renewal by the Company), the Company shall pay to Employee an amount equal to the sum of
(i) Employee’s earned but unpaid Annual Base Salary through the date of termination of employment at the rate then in effect, (ii) vacation pay earned but not taken to the date of such termination, and (iii) all other amounts
previously deferred by Employee or earned but not paid as of such date under all Company incentive or deferred compensation plans or programs. In the event of a non-renewal by the Employee, the amounts due the Employee shall be limited to the
amounts specified in clause (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence. 
 (f) Non-Renewal by the Company at End
of Initial Period or Additional Period. If the Company elects not to renew the Employee’s employment as of the end of the Initial Period or an Additional Period, and provided the Employee continues to perform Employee’s duties and
responsibilities through the end of such Initial Period or Additional Period, as the case may be, then the Company shall promptly pay or otherwise provide to Employee the following amounts in addition to those set forth in Section 10(a):

 (i) An amount equal to Employee’s Annual Base Salary then in effect, payable in a single lump sum by
certified or bank cashier’s check within 30 days of such termination; and 
 (ii) An amount equal to the
product of (A) the maximum monthly premium payment that may be charged to continue coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan under COBRA, and under all life insurance and disability
policies provided by Employer for Employee multiplied by (B) 12 months (payable over such period). Any unpaid amount under this clause (ii) will cease if Employee obtains substantially similar coverage under new employment.

 (g) Continuance of Insurance. The Company will use its best efforts to keep the policies of insurance referred to in
clause (ii) of Sections 10(c) and Section 10(f) above in effect for the benefit of the Employee through the 12 month period (as the case may be), and after the expiration of such 12 month period (as the case may be) if the Employee is
unable to secure reasonable alternative coverage as a result of lack of insurability, at the written request of the Employee, the Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to continue such coverage, provided that the Company will have no
obligation to incur any incremental cost or risk (other than minor administration inconvenience) and Employee shall agree in writing to bear all such cost and risk and hold the Company harmless against same.

 (h) Waiver of Claims. In the event this Agreement expires as a result of non-renewal
by the Company, or is terminated by the Company without Cause or as a result of a disability of Employee in accordance with Section 10(d), or is terminated by Employee with Good Reason, Employee agrees to accept, in full settlement of any and
all claims, losses, damages and other demands that Employee may have arising out of such termination or non-renewal, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the payments, benefits and vesting of rights set forth in this Agreement. Employee
hereby waives any and all rights Employee may have to bring any cause of action or proceeding contesting any such termination or non-renewal; provided, however, that such waiver shall not be deemed to affect Employee’s rights to enforce any
other obligations of the Company unrelated to employment. Under no circumstances shall Employee be entitled to any compensation or confirmation of any benefits under this Agreement for any period of time following Employee’s date of termination
if Employee’s termination is for Cause. 
 (i) Lock-ups, etc. During the one year period after Employee receives the
lump sum payments as provided in Section 10(c) or (f) above, Employee shall sign any lock-up letters, standstill agreements, or other similar documentation specifically required by an underwriter from such Employee in connection with a
public offering of securities by the Company or take other actions reasonably related thereto as requested by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that equivalent agreements are being required of Company management and the
period of any such lock-up or standstill agreements shall not exceed the shorter of (i) 180 days or (ii) the balance of the one (1) year period. In the event Employee fails to sign any such letters, agreements or similar documentation
or take any such action, the Company may seek and obtain specific performance of such covenant, including any injunction requiring execution thereof or the taking of any such actions, and Employee hereby appoints the then president of the Company in
office from time to time to sign any such documents on Employee’s behalf so long as such documents are prepared on the same basis as other shareholders generally or as all Company management shareholders. 

11. No Mitigation Obligation. The Company acknowledges that it will be difficult and may be impossible (i) for Employee to
find reasonably comparable employment following termination of Employee’s employment and (ii) to measure the amount of damages which Employee may suffer as a result of the termination of Employee’s employment. Accordingly, all amounts
paid to Employee under this Agreement following Employee’s termination of employment are acknowledged by the Company to be reasonable and to be liquidated damages, and Employee will not be required to mitigate the amount of such payments by
seeking other employment or otherwise, nor will any profits, income, earnings or other benefits from any source whatsoever (including from other employment) create any mitigation, offset, reduction or any other obligation on the part of Employee
under this Agreement.

 12. Covenant Not to Compete. 

(a) During Employee’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates and thereafter during the Restricted Period (as defined in
Exhibit A attached hereto), regardless of the reason for the termination of Employee’s employment, Employee will not engage in or carry on, directly or indirectly, either for himself or as a member of a partnership or as a shareholder,
investor, owner, officer or director of a company or other entity, or as an employee, agent, associate or consultant of any person, partnership, corporation or other entity, any business that directly competes with any services or products produced,
sold, conducted, developed, or in the process of development by the Company or its Affiliates on the date of termination of Employee’s employment within a 35 mile radius of such business or entity 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall not be deemed to be in violation of Section 12(a) based solely on the ownership of
less than one percent of any class of securities of a publicly-held company whose gross assets exceed $100,000,000. 
 (c)
Employee acknowledges that the limitations set forth herein on Employee’s rights to compete with the Company and its Affiliates are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company and its Affiliates. In this regard, Employee

Company. 
 (d) In the event that there shall be any violation of the covenant not to compete set forth in this Section 12,
then the time limitation thereof shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation continues; and in the event the Company is required to seek relief from such violation in any court, board of arbitration
or other tribunal, then the covenant shall be extended for a period of time equal to the pendency of such proceedings, including all appeals. 
 (e) Employee agrees that the remedy at law for any breach by Employee of this Section 12 will be inadequate and that the Company shall also be entitled to injunctive relief. 

13. Confidential Information. During the term of Employee’s employment hereunder, and for two years after Employee’s
termination of employment, Employee shall not use or disclose, without the prior written consent of the Company, Confidential Information (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates, and upon
termination of Employee’s employment will return to the Company all written materials in Employee’s possession embodying such Confidential Information. Employee will promptly disclose to the Company all Confidential Information, as well as
any business opportunity related to the Company which comes to Employee’s attention during the term of Employee’s employment with the Company. Employee agrees that the remedy at law for any breach by Employee of this Section 13 will

other author’s work, in any other tangible form developed in whole or in part by Employee during the term of this Agreement, or otherwise developed, purchased or acquired by the Company or any of its Affiliates, shall be the exclusive property

successive one year periods (the “Additional Periods”) commencing on the third anniversary date of this Agreement and on each anniversary date thereafter, unless either party gives notice of nonrenewal as provided in Section 10(e) or
otherwise terminates this Agreement in accordance with the other provisions of Section 10. 
 3. Representations and
Warranties. Employee represents and warrants that Employee is under no contractual or other restrictions or obligations that will significantly limit Employee’s activities on behalf of the Company or will prohibit or limit the disclosure or
use of by Employee of any information which directly or indirectly relates to the nature of the Company or the services to be rendered by Employee under this Agreement. 
 4. Compensation. Subject to the provisions of Section 10, Employee will be entitled to the compensation and benefits set forth in this Section 4. 

(a) During the Initial Period, the Company shall pay Employee an Annual Base Salary, payable semi-monthly, in equal semi-monthly
installments at a rate equal to $456,000 per year for the first calendar year or portion thereof. In each subsequent calendar year during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Employee an Annual Base Salary determined by the Board of

plans sponsored by the Company for its executive employees, including but not limited to sick leave and disability leave, Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan and dental insurance and pension and/or
profit sharing plans; provided, however, that except as provided below, the nature, amount and limitations of such plans shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company.

employment; provided, however, that Employee must file expense reports with respect to such expenses in accordance with the Company’s policies as are in effect from time to time. 

(c) During the term of employment of Employee hereunder, Employee shall be initially entitled to 160 hours of paid-time-off

month. 
 6. Indemnification and Insurance. The Company shall indemnify Employee with respect to matters relating to
Employee’s services to the Company or any of its Affiliates (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) to the extent permitted by applicable law and as set forth in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and otherwise in
accordance with the terms of any other indemnification which is generally applicable to executive officers of the Company or any of its Affiliates that may be provided by the Company or any such Affiliate from time to time. The foregoing indemnity

directors’ liability insurance providing coverage that is comparable to that provided now or hereafter to any other executive officer, partner, or director of the Company . The provisions of this Section 6 will survive the termination of
Employee’s employment for any reason and the term of this Agreement.

 7. Change in Control of the Company. 

(a) If a Change of Control (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) occurs and if during the Protected Period (as defined in Exhibit A
attached hereto), Employee’s employment is terminated or not renewed pursuant to Section 10, whether by the Company or by Employee, then the Company shall promptly pay or otherwise provide to Employee the benefits set forth below:

 (i) An amount equal to Employee’s Annual Base Salary then in effect, payable in a single lump sum by
certified or bank cashier’s check within 30 days of such termination; and 
 (ii) An amount equal to the
product of (A) the maximum monthly premium payment that may be charged to continue coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan under COBRA and under all life insurance and disability
policies provided by Employer for Employee, multiplied by (B) 12 months (payable over such period). Any unpaid amount under this clause (ii) will cease if Employee obtains substantially similar coverage under new employment. 

The Company will use its best efforts to keep the policies of insurance referred to in clause (ii) above in effect for the benefit
of the Employee through the 12 month period, and after the expiration of such 12 month period, if the Employee is unable to secure reasonable alternative coverage as a result of lack of insurability, at the written request of the Employee, the
Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to continue such coverage, provided that the Company will have no obligation to incur any incremental cost or risk (other than minor administration inconvenience) and Employee shall agree in writing to
bear all such cost and risk and hold the Company harmless against same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall not be entitled to any benefits under this Section 7 if such termination is (i) due to Employee’s death,
(ii) by the Company on account of Employee’s disability as provided in Section 10(d) below, (iii) by the Company for Cause (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) or (iv) by Employee for other than Good Reason (as defined
in Exhibit A attached hereto) as provided in Section 10 below. 
 8. Gross-Up of Parachute Payments. 

(a) To provide Employee with adequate protection in connection with Employee’s ongoing employment with the Company, this Agreement or
other incentive plans of the Company provide Employee with various benefits in the event of termination of Employee’s employment with the Company during the Protected Period. If Employee’s employment is terminated or not renewed pursuant
to Section 10 during a Protected Period or otherwise in connection with a “change of control” of the Company, within the meaning of Section 2806 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), a portion
of those benefits could be characterized as “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 2806 of the Code. The parties hereto acknowledge that the protections set forth in this Section 8 are important, and it is
agreed that Employee should not have to bear the full burden of the excise tax that might be levied under Section 4999 of the Code or any similar provision of state or federal law, in the event that any portion of the benefits payable to
Employee pursuant to this Agreement or the other incentive plans of the Company are treated as an excess parachute payment. The parties, therefore, have agreed as set forth in this Section 8. 

  
 3 

 (b) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if it shall be determined
that any payment or distribution (including income recognized by Employee upon the early vesting of restricted property or upon the exercise of options whose exercise date has been accelerated) by the Company or any other person to or for the
benefit of Employee (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section 8) (a “Payment”)
would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar provision of state or federal law or any interest or penalties are incurred by Employee with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any
such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall pay an additional payment, not to exceed $250,000 in the aggregate (a “Gross-Up Payment”), in an amount such that
after payment by Employee of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed on
the Gross-Up Payment, Employee retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to fifty percent (50%) the Excise Tax imposed on the Payments. The Employee will bear the cost of the remaining 50% until the aggregate Gross Payments from the
Company have reached $250,000, and will thereafter bear all additional taxes, interest or penalties. 
 (c) In the event of any
dispute as to the applicability or amount of any Gross-Up Payment, all determinations required to be made under this Section 8, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the
assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by the independent accounting firm regularly employed by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the
Company and to Employee within 15 business days after the receipt of notice from Employee that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be borne by the Company.
If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by Employee, it shall furnish Employee with a written statement that failure to report the Excise Tax on Employee’s applicable federal income tax return would not result in the
imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding on the Company and Employee unless and until a final determination is received from the Internal, Revenue Service indicating a contrary result.
As a result or uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments may not have been made by the Company that should have
been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. If the Employee thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that
has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Employee, consistent with the maximum limitation stated in paragraph 8(b) above. In the event it is determined by the Accounting Firm that the
Gross Payments previously made by the Company exceeded the limitations stated in paragraph 8(b) above, upon written notice from the Company, accompanied by a copy of the Accounting Firm’s calculation of same, the amount of such overpayment
shall be promptly paid by the Employee to the Company.

 9. Options and Other Stock-Related Plans. The terms and conditions of any option,
stock or equity bonus, restricted stock or equity, equity award or other equity-related plan or program with respect to capital stock or partnership interests of the Company which may be granted to Employee or in which Employee may participate shall
be governed by the applicable Company plan, if any, and/or separate agreement(s) between the Company and Employee with respect thereto. 
 10. Termination or Non-Renewal of Employment. 
 (a) Termination by
Either Party: General Provisions. Either the Company or Employee may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder at any time during the term of this Agreement by delivery of ninety (90) days prior written notice by the terminating party
to the other party. Promptly after such termination of employment, in addition to any other payments or benefits provided in this Section 10, the Company shall pay to Employee an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Employee’s earned
but unpaid Annual Base Salary through the date of termination of employment at the rate in effect at the time of such termination, (ii) vacation pay earned but not taken to the date of such termination, and (iii) all other amounts
previously deferred by Employee or earned but not paid as of such date under all Company incentive or deferred compensation plans or programs. 
 (b) Termination for Cause: Resignation without Good Reason. If the Company terminates Employee’s employment for Cause, or if the Employee terminates employment without Good Reason, the
payments due to Employee shall be limited to the amounts described in Section 10(a). 
 (c) Termination Without Cause:
Termination for Good Reason. If the Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause (except as provided in Section 10(d) below), or if the Employee terminates Employee’s employment for Good Reason, then the Company shall
promptly pay or otherwise provide to Employee the following amounts in addition to those set forth in Section 10(a): 
 (i) An amount equal to Employee’s Annual Base Salary then in effect, payable in a single lump sum by certified or bank cashier’s check within 30 days of such termination; and 

(ii) An amount equal to the product of (A) the maximum monthly premium payment that may be charged to continue
coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan under COBRA, and under all life insurance and disability policies provided by Employer for Employee multiplied by (B) 12 months (payable over
such period). Any unpaid amount under this clause (ii) will cease if Employee obtains substantially similar coverage under new employment. 

  
 5 

 (d) Termination on Disability. If at any time during the term of Employee’s
employment hereunder, Employee is unable due to physical or mental disability, to perform effectively Employee’s duties hereunder, the Company shall continue payment of salary as provided in Section 4 during the first 3 month period of
such disability to the extent not covered by the Company’s disability insurance policies (the Company may offset against its obligations in this sentence the amounts actually received by the Employee under such policies). Upon the expiration of
such 3 month period, the Company, at its sole option, may continue payment of Employee’s salary for such additional periods as the Company elects, or may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder without any further compensation
obligations to Employee hereunder. If Employee should die during the term of Employee’s employment hereunder, Employee’s employment and the Company’s obligations hereunder for compensation payments shall terminate as of the end of the
month in which Employee’s death occurs. 
 (e) Non-Renewal of Employment; General Provisions. Either the Company or
Employee may elect not to renew Employee’s employment hereunder at the end of the Initial Period, or at the end of any Additional Period thereafter, by delivery of ninety (90) days prior written notice by the electing party to the other
party. At the expiration of the employment term (in addition to any other amounts provided in Section 10(f) below in the case of a non-renewal by the Company), the Company shall pay to Employee an amount equal to the sum of
(i) Employee’s earned but unpaid Annual Base Salary through the date of termination of employment at the rate then in effect, (ii) vacation pay earned but not taken to the date of such termination, and (iii) all other amounts
previously deferred by Employee or earned but not paid as of such date under all Company incentive or deferred compensation plans or programs. In the event of a non-renewal by the Employee, the amounts due the Employee shall be limited to the
amounts specified in clause (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence. 
 (f) Non-Renewal by the Company at End
of Initial Period or Additional Period. If the Company elects not to renew the Employee’s employment as of the end of the Initial Period or an Additional Period, and provided the Employee continues to perform Employee’s duties and
responsibilities through the end of such Initial Period or Additional Period, as the case may be, then the Company shall promptly pay or otherwise provide to Employee the following amounts in addition to those set forth in Section 10(a):

 (i) An amount equal to Employee’s Annual Base Salary then in effect, payable in a single lump sum by
certified or bank cashier’s check within 30 days of such termination; and 
 (ii) An amount equal to the
product of (A) the maximum monthly premium payment that may be charged to continue coverage for Employee and Employee’s dependents under the Company’s health insurance plan under COBRA, and under all life insurance and disability
policies provided by Employer for Employee multiplied by (B) 12 months (payable over such period). Any unpaid amount under this clause (ii) will cease if Employee obtains substantially similar coverage under new employment.

 (g) Continuance of Insurance. The Company will use its best efforts to keep the policies of insurance referred to in
clause (ii) of Sections 10(c) and Section 10(f) above in effect for the benefit of the Employee through the 12 month period (as the case may be), and after the expiration of such 12 month period (as the case may be) if the Employee is
unable to secure reasonable alternative coverage as a result of lack of insurability, at the written request of the Employee, the Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to continue such coverage, provided that the Company will have no
obligation to incur any incremental cost or risk (other than minor administration inconvenience) and Employee shall agree in writing to bear all such cost and risk and hold the Company harmless against same. 

  
 6 

 (h) Waiver of Claims. In the event this Agreement expires as a result of non-renewal
by the Company, or is terminated by the Company without Cause or as a result of a disability of Employee in accordance with Section 10(d), or is terminated by Employee with Good Reason, Employee agrees to accept, in full settlement of any and
all claims, losses, damages and other demands that Employee may have arising out of such termination or non-renewal, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the payments, benefits and vesting of rights set forth in this Agreement. Employee
hereby waives any and all rights Employee may have to bring any cause of action or proceeding contesting any such termination or non-renewal; provided, however, that such waiver shall not be deemed to affect Employee’s rights to enforce any
other obligations of the Company unrelated to employment. Under no circumstances shall Employee be entitled to any compensation or confirmation of any benefits under this Agreement for any period of time following Employee’s date of termination
if Employee’s termination is for Cause. 
 (i) Lock-ups, etc. During the one year period after Employee receives the
lump sum payments as provided in Section 10(c) or (f) above, Employee shall sign any lock-up letters, standstill agreements, or other similar documentation specifically required by an underwriter from such Employee in connection with a
public offering of securities by the Company or take other actions reasonably related thereto as requested by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that equivalent agreements are being required of Company management and the
period of any such lock-up or standstill agreements shall not exceed the shorter of (i) 180 days or (ii) the balance of the one (1) year period. In the event Employee fails to sign any such letters, agreements or similar documentation
or take any such action, the Company may seek and obtain specific performance of such covenant, including any injunction requiring execution thereof or the taking of any such actions, and Employee hereby appoints the then president of the Company in
office from time to time to sign any such documents on Employee’s behalf so long as such documents are prepared on the same basis as other shareholders generally or as all Company management shareholders. 

11. No Mitigation Obligation. The Company acknowledges that it will be difficult and may be impossible (i) for Employee to
find reasonably comparable employment following termination of Employee’s employment and (ii) to measure the amount of damages which Employee may suffer as a result of the termination of Employee’s employment. Accordingly, all amounts
paid to Employee under this Agreement following Employee’s termination of employment are acknowledged by the Company to be reasonable and to be liquidated damages, and Employee will not be required to mitigate the amount of such payments by
seeking other employment or otherwise, nor will any profits, income, earnings or other benefits from any source whatsoever (including from other employment) create any mitigation, offset, reduction or any other obligation on the part of Employee
under this Agreement. 

  
 7 

 12. Covenant Not to Compete. 

(a) During Employee’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates and thereafter during the Restricted Period (as defined in
Exhibit A attached hereto), regardless of the reason for the termination of Employee’s employment, Employee will not engage in or carry on, directly or indirectly, either for himself or as a member of a partnership or as a shareholder,
investor, owner, officer or director of a company or other entity, or as an employee, agent, associate or consultant of any person, partnership, corporation or other entity, any business that directly competes with any services or products produced,
sold, conducted, developed, or in the process of development by the Company or its Affiliates on the date of termination of Employee’s employment within a 35 mile radius of such business or entity 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall not be deemed to be in violation of Section 12(a) based solely on the ownership of
less than one percent of any class of securities of a publicly-held company whose gross assets exceed $100,000,000. 
 (c)
Employee acknowledges that the limitations set forth herein on Employee’s rights to compete with the Company and its Affiliates are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company and its Affiliates. In this regard, Employee
specifically agrees that the limitations as to period of time and geographic area, as well as all other restrictions on Employee’s activities specified herein, are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the Company and its Affiliates.
In particular, Employee acknowledges that the parties anticipate that Employee will be actively seeking markets for the products and services of the Company and its Affiliates throughout the United States during Employee’s employment with the
Company. 
 (d) In the event that there shall be any violation of the covenant not to compete set forth in this Section 12,
then the time limitation thereof shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation continues; and in the event the Company is required to seek relief from such violation in any court, board of arbitration
or other tribunal, then the covenant shall be extended for a period of time equal to the pendency of such proceedings, including all appeals. 
 (e) Employee agrees that the remedy at law for any breach by Employee of this Section 12 will be inadequate and that the Company shall also be entitled to injunctive relief. 

13. Confidential Information. During the term of Employee’s employment hereunder, and for two years after Employee’s
termination of employment, Employee shall not use or disclose, without the prior written consent of the Company, Confidential Information (as defined in Exhibit A attached hereto) relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates, and upon
termination of Employee’s employment will return to the Company all written materials in Employee’s possession embodying such Confidential Information. Employee will promptly disclose to the Company all Confidential Information, as well as
any business opportunity related to the Company which comes to Employee’s attention during the term of Employee’s employment with the Company. Employee agrees that the remedy at law for any breach by Employee of this Section 13 will

other author’s work, in any other tangible form developed in whole or in part by Employee during the term of this Agreement, or otherwise developed, purchased or acquired by the Company or any of its Affiliates, shall be the exclusive property
