Letter Agreement from Interlink Electronics, Inc.

 Exhibit 10.1 
 February 6, 2008 
 Chuck Best 
 Chief Financial
Officer 
 Dear Chuck: 
 As you know, Interlink’s Board of
Directors and its Compensation Committee have been discussing the need for special employment incentives for key individuals to deal with the uncertainty that is unavoidably associated with the recent structural and personnel changes at Interlink.
We want you to know that the Board of Directors values the contributions that you and your colleagues are making and is excited about Interlink’s future and the future of its management team. 
 We recognize that a company cannot undergo changes of the kind that Interlink is currently experiencing without creating some uncertainty on the part of employees as to
their future prospects. The Board believes that it is not in the interest of Interlink or its key employees that this uncertainty be allowed to interfere with the focus on moving forward as a company or to create personal financial concerns. In
order to do what the Board can do to alleviate these concerns, the Board has unanimously voted in favor of making the following commitment to you and making similar commitments to other key employees throughout the organization. 
 Subject to the release condition described below, if your employment with Interlink or a subsidiary (hereinafter, “Interlink”) is terminated without Cause or
if you leave for Good Reason (both as defined below) at any time from the date of this letter until the earlier to occur of December 31, 2009 or the first anniversary of the employment on a full-time basis of a new Chief Executive Officer,
Interlink will pay you, within five business days after the date on which the release referred to below is enforceable by Interlink and any right that you may have had to revoke or withdraw such release has expired, a sum equal to $200,000 in
addition to any amounts otherwise owing to you as base compensation or bonus under the terms of your employment agreement with Interlink as then in effect.

 For the purpose of this letter, you will be deemed terminated without Cause if your termination is not the result of one or more of the following:

 (a) your willful and continued failure substantially to perform your reasonably assigned duties with Interlink, other than a failure
resulting from your incapacity due to physical or mental illness, after a written demand for performance has been delivered to you by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that you have not substantially
performed your duties and which is not or cannot be cured within thirty days after written demand; 
 (b) your conviction of guilty or
entering of a nolo contendere plea to a felony, which is materially and demonstrably injurious to Interlink; or 
 (c) your commission
of an act, or your failure to act, which constitutes gross negligence or gross misconduct and which is not or cannot be cured within thirty days after written notice from the Board. 
 Also for the purpose of this letter, you will be deemed to have left for Good Reason if you leave as a result of one or more of the following: 
 (a) a diminution of your position or responsibilities from your present position, and responsibilities as an employee, or the assignment to you of any
duties or responsibilities that are inconsistent with such position, or responsibilities (in either case other than isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent actions which are remedied after notice), or your removal from such position, except in
connection with the termination of your employment for Cause, or as a result of your death, disability or of your own volition other than for Good Reason, and provided that, if Interlink or its business is sold to or combined with another entity,
your position or responsibilities shall not be deemed diminished as a result of the fact that the person to whom you report at the acquiring or combined company has a different title from that of the person to whom you currently report as long as
your position and responsibility involve the management of the business function or activity for which you were previously responsible or a business function or activity involving equivalent duties of equivalent importance; 

 Chuck Best

 (b) a reduction by the Company in your rate of base salary, bonus or incentive opportunity or a substantial reduction in benefits (other
than reductions that do not impact your compensation opportunity, taken as a whole) of more than 20%; or 
 (c) a requirement that you be
based more than 50 miles from the principal office at in which you are currently based, except for reasonably required travel on Interlink’s business; 
 It shall be a condition of your right to the payment called for in this letter that you execute a release, in customary form, of Interlink from any and all liability to you, your heirs or assigns resulting from your employment with
Interlink. 
 The commitment that Interlink is making to you in this letter reflects the extraordinary circumstances that currently face Interlink and its
employees. It is intended to be in addition to all other compensation and other employment agreements currently existing between you and Interlink or agreed between you and Interlink in the future and none of such agreements shall be affected by
this letter or its expiration. 
 I want, once again to reaffirm the Board’s appreciation of your commitment to Interlink and its future. 
  

	
	Sincerely,

 ARTICLE III

 LICENSE AND ASSIGNMENT 
 3.1
License Agreement — Termination. The Parties hereby terminate the License Agreement upon payment of the First Fee, provided in Section 4.1(a)(i), and release each other from any and all claims and obligations arising under the
License Agreement before the date of such termination. To the extent that Yale University or any other third party claims any rights under the License Agreement, OMRF agrees to release and indemnify Alexion from any joint or several liability that
may exist. 
 3.2 New License. OMRF hereby grants ALEXION an exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable worldwide license to the Patent Rights to
research, develop, make, use, practice, market, sell, and commercialize Licensed Products and Licensed Processes (the “New License”). The term of such license shall expire immediately upon the earlier of (i) the date of the Assignment
pursuant to Section 3.3, or (ii) default by ALEXION of its payment obligations under Section 4.1. For the avoidance of doubt, during the term of the New License, OMRF agrees that OMRF or any OMRF Affiliate shall not sue ALEXION or any
ALEXION Affiliate for infringement of the Patent Rights as a result of ALEXION or any ALEXION Affiliate making, using, selling, 

  

 5 

 
offering for sale, or importing any Licensed Products or Licensed Processes in the Territory. 
 3.3 Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, OMRF hereby agrees to assign all rights, titles and interests in the Patent Rights to ALEXION immediately upon payment in full of the
Settlement Amount (see 4.1(a)), together with any interest owed thereon pursuant to Section 4.1(b). Such Assignment shall be effective immediately upon Alexion’s payment of the Settlement Amount (“Assignment Date”), and
shall be memorialized by the parties in a form substantially similar to the Assignment set forth as Exhibit 4. OMRF agrees to cooperate with ALEXION to ensure the Assignment is effective and properly filed with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office. OMRF agrees that within 10 days of the Assignment Date, OMRF will transfer to ALEXION all prosecution files concerning the Patent Rights. Alexion acknowledges that the federal government may retain certain rights pursuant to 37 CFR 401.

 3.4 Promptly upon execution of this Agreement, OMRF shall seek the consent of the National Institute of Health (“NIH”) to the Assignment. If as
of July 1, 2009, NIH has failed to consent in writing to the Assignment, and provided that ALEXION pays the Settlement Amount in full with interest in accordance with Section 4.1, OMRF shall promptly enter into a written License Agreement
that continues the New License in effect for perpetuity and also includes any and all provisions that Alexion reasonably requests in good faith. Such written License Agreement shall, among other things, include provisions to put ALEXION in a
position vis a vis the Patent Rights that are as close as possible to make the New License equivalent to an assignment of the Patent Rights (e.g., consent by OMRF to cooperate and sign any documents reasonably requested by ALEXION regarding the
prosecution, maintenance, enforcement and sublicensing of the Patent Rights or assignment of the New License, without further consideration to OMRF and with choice of law and venue determined by ALEXION). Under such circumstances, the total
Settlement Amount shall be reduced by $275,000 as further described in Section 4.1. 
 3.5 No Implied Rights. No right or license is granted by
implication, estoppel, or otherwise to any know-how, patent, or other intellectual property right owned or controlled by OMRF or its Affiliates other than as expressly provided in this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 PAYMENTS AND ROYALTIES

 4.1 Fees. 
 (a) In consideration for the license
granted to ALEXION by OMRF under Section 3.2, the Assignment to be made by OMRF pursuant to Section 3.3, and the Parties’ fulfillment of their other obligations and undertakings under this Agreement, and subject to the provisions of
Section 3.3, ALEXION shall pay to OMRF $10,000,000 (the “Settlement Amount”), plus interest in accordance with Section 4(b), if any, in the following manner: 
  

 6 

	 	(i)	within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, ALEXION shall make a cash payment by wire transfer to OMRF of at least $3,000,000 (the “First Fee”);

  

	 	(ii)	subject to Section 4.1(b) and provided the Settlement Amount has not been paid in full, on or before December 31, 2008, ALEXION shall make one or more cash payments by
wire transfer to OMRF in an amount equal to at least $7,500,000 minus the First Fee actually paid by ALEXION pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(i) (the “Second Fee”); and 

  

	 	(iii)	subject to Section 4.1(b) and provided the Settlement Amount has not been paid in full, on or before July 1, 2009, ALEXION shall make one or more cash payments by wire
transfer to OMRF in an amount equal to at least $10,000,000 minus the First Fee and the Second Fee actually paid by ALEXION pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(i) and (ii) respectively (the “Third Fee”); provided further that the Third
Fee will be reduced by $275,000 in the event that NIH fails to consent in writing to the Assignment as of July 1, 2009. 

 The Parties
acknowledge that ALEXION may pay the Settlement Amount in full at any time prior to July 1, 2009, subject to Section 4.1(b), provided however that this will not impact OMRF’s right to continue to seek NIH approval for the assignment
through July 1, 2009 and its right to the full Settlement Amount, as provided for in section 4.1(a). 
 (b) If ALEXION pays the Second Fee and the Third
Fee on a date after the date of payment of the First Fee (the “First Fee Payment Date”), Alexion agrees to execute the Promissory Note in the form attached hereto at Exhibit 5, with interest accruing on such unpaid amount commencing on the
First Fee Payment Date through and until the date such portion of the Settlement Amount is paid, at the Interest Rate. ALEXION shall pay OMRF by wire transfer accrued interest on any unpaid portion of the Settlement Fee simultaneous with payment of
each portion of the Second Fee and the Third Fee. Interest owed hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which the calculation is being made, based upon a 365 or 366-day year. 
 (c) In the event of a Change in Control of ALEXION or a Bankruptcy of ALEXION, and provided the licensing rights granted hereunder have not terminated, any unpaid sums
of the First Fee, Second Fee, and Third Fee shall become immediately due and payable to OMRF upon consummation of such Change in Control or Bankruptcy. 
 4.2 Default. If ALEXION does not pay the First Fee, the Second Fee or the Third Fee within sixty (60) days after OMRF delivers written notice to ALEXION that such payment is overdue under Section 4.1(a), then OMRF may
terminate this Agreement and upon ALEXION’s receipt of written notice of termination, the Patent Rights shall revert to OMRF, ALEXION’s licensing rights hereunder (including without limitation the New License) shall terminate, this
Agreement shall terminate, and the 1992 License Agreement shall be reinstated. OMRF shall be entitled to keep all payments received under this Agreement even if Alexion is in default and the Patent Rights revert back to OMRF due to said default.

  

 7 

 4.3 Tax Withholding. Alexion shall deduct all taxes from payments hereunder that are required to be withheld
pursuant to applicable law or regulations. ALEXION shall (i) promptly notify OMRF of any such requirement for withholding tax, (ii) remit such amount to the proper tax authorities and (iii) provide OMRF with the necessary tax receipts
in a timely manner. 
 ARTICLE V
