December 16, 2016 

Mr. George Zoghbi
Dear George:
I am very pleased to confirm your continued role as Chief Operating Officer, U.S. Commercial Business, of the Kraft Heinz Company (the “Company”), effective as of the date hereof (the “Effective Date”).  You will continue to report directly to me, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  This letter sets forth the terms and conditions of the offer (the “2016 Offer Letter”). 
Annual Base Salary
You will continue to be paid a base salary at the rate of $850,000 per annum, payable in periodic installments according to the Company’s normal payroll practice (as adjusted from time to time, the “Annual Base Salary”).  Your Annual Base Salary will be subject to periodic review by the Company, and may be increased, but not decreased, below its then current level.
Annual Incentive Bonus
Nothing in this 2016 Offer Letter will affect your 2016 Special Incentive Bonus or Retention Bonus payable under the terms of your offer letter executed in July 2015.
For the 2017 fiscal year, and as long as you remain a full-time employee of the Company, your target annual incentive award opportunity under the Company’s Performance Bonus Plan will be equal to 200% of your Annual Base Salary (and your maximum bonus multiplier will be capped at 130% of your target annual incentive award opportunity).  The actual amount you will receive may be lower or higher than your target annual incentive award opportunity depending on your individual performance and the performance of the Company.  

THE KRAFT HEINZ COMPANY, 200 E. RANDOLPH STREET, CHICAGO, IL  60601                                      1

Equity Incentives
On January 1, 2017, subject to your continued full-time employment with the Company on such date, you will receive a long-term incentive grant that includes restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance shares pursuant the Company’s 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan with the following values:

	
		
	Vehicle and Value
	Description

	Restricted Stock Units
$3,000,000 nominal value, with number of shares based on average of daily closing prices on each trading day in December 2016 (rounded up or down to the nearest whole share)
	RSUs with a time based three-year cliff vest, which will vest on December 31, 2019, subject to your continued service with the Company through such date (unless otherwise set forth herein).  

	Performance Shares
$7,000,000 nominal value, with number of shares based on average of daily closing prices on each trading day in December 2016 (rounded up or down to the nearest whole share)
	Performance Shares with a time-based three-year cliff vest, subject to your continued service with the Company through December 31, 2019 (unless otherwise set forth herein) and the Compensation Committee’s certification of achievement relative to the following targets and thresholds:
50% ($3,500,000 of nominal value) based on US Sales Growth
50% ($3,500,000 of nominal value) based on US EBITDA Growth  

If your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or due to death or Disability (as such terms are defined below) and you do not transition to another role with the Company, your RSUs and Performance Shares granted under this 2016 Offer Letter will be accelerated on a per-year pro-rata basis based on the number of years (or partial years) that you worked under this 2016 Offer Letter.  For example, if your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause at any time between January 1 and December 31, 2018, two full years of your RSUs and Performance Shares granted under this 2016 Offer Letter would be accelerated.  

In the case of the Performance Shares, the performance period will be shortened so that the final year of the performance period is the respective Strat Plan year that your employment terminates.  In other words, if your employment ends by a termination without Cause or due to death or Disability at any point during a year, you will receive vesting credit for that entire year, and that Strat Plan year will be the final performance year for purposes of the Performance Shares (instead of 2019).  If your employment is terminated without Cause and your last work day is December 31, the Performance Shares will be valued by comparing the Strat Plan results to actual performance for that year.  If such a no-Cause termination happens and your last work day is any other day of the year, the Performance Shares will be valued by comparing the Strat Plan results for the year your employment ends to the annual budget for that year.  In the event of any such accelerated vesting, unless otherwise set forth herein (or in the Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation Agreement referenced below), the Equity Incentives will be settled as soon as possible and no later than 30 days following the applicable vesting date.     

If your employment is terminated without Cause or due to death or Disability (as such terms are defined below) and you do not transition to another role with the Company, any other outstanding stock options, RSUs, or Performance Shares you hold at the time of such a termination (i.e., any other equity-based awards other than those granted under this 2016 Offer Letter, including awards under your July 2015 offer letter) would also be accelerated on a per-year pro-rata basis based on the number of years (or partial years) that you worked during the term of those grants.  This includes the outstanding equity-based awards from your 2016 Bonus Swap and any future Bonus Swap elections.  For example, if your employment were terminated without Cause at any time between March 2, 2018 and February 28, 2019, three full years from your 2016 Bonus Swap election (awarded March 1, 2016) and two full years from your 2017 Bonus Swap election (assuming you make such an election and it is awarded on March 1, 2017) would be accelerated.   
If the Company acquires, disposes of, or merges with a business that involves or impacts the United States business, you and the Company will use reasonable efforts to agree on adjusted targets and thresholds 

THE KRAFT HEINZ COMPANY, 200 E. RANDOLPH STREET, CHICAGO, IL  60601                                      2

related to the Performance Shares.  If you and the Company cannot agree on such targets, you can choose to terminate your relationship with the Company.  Such a termination would be treated as a no-Cause termination under this 2016 Offer Letter.
Other Benefits 
Your offer includes the Company’s comprehensive benefits package available to full-time similarly situated salaried employees (except that, in light of the benefits provided in this 2016 Offer Letter, you will not be participate in the Company’s severance plans or programs).  The benefits provided to you under this 2016 Offer Letter are subject to the specific terms of each plan as set forth in the governing plan documents, as may be amended or terminated from time to time.
Separation from the Company
You will be a U.S. employee of the Company and your employment status will be governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the United States.  As such, your status will be that of an “at will” employee.  This means that either you or the Company is free to terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any or no reason, with or without notice, subject to the consequences thereof as provided in this Offer Letter.  
You acknowledge and agree that, in consideration of the salary, benefits and incentives offered to you in the July 2015 Offer Letter and this 2016 Offer Letter, you will not be entitled to receive any severance payments or benefits not explicitly provided in this 2016 Offer Letter, including (but not limited to) any and all rights and benefits under Kraft Foods Group Inc.’s Change in Control Plan for Key Executives, as amended effective June 23, 2014, which you agree shall be of no force or effect. 
You agree that, unless otherwise agreed to between you and the Company, upon any termination of your employment, you will immediately cease to be a director or officer with the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates.

the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Offer Letter, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”  If you are deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment that is considered non-qualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (A) the day after the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your “separation from service,” (B) the date of your death, and (C) the earliest date upon which such payment or benefit may otherwise be paid under Section 409A of the Code (the “Delay Period”).  Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to you in a lump sum and any remaining payments and benefits due under this 2016 Offer Letter shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. For purposes of Code Section 409A, your right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this 2016 Offer Letter shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. In all cases, any reimbursement paid pursuant to this 2016 Offer Letter will be paid no later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such expenses occurred.  With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year.
Withholding
The Company may withhold from any and all amounts payable under this 2016 Offer Letter such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.
Definitions
For purposes of this 2016 Offer Letter, “Cause” means:
		
	(i)
	Continued failure to substantially perform your job duties (other than resulting from incapacity due to Disability);

		
	(ii)
	Gross negligence, dishonesty, or violation of any reasonable rule or regulation of the Company where the violation results in significant damage to the Company; or

		
	(iii)
	Engaging in other conduct which adversely reflects on the Company in any material respect.

Before a termination for Cause, the Company must give you written notice describing in reasonable detail the conduct that is alleged to constitute Cause and give you at least fifteen (15) days to cure such “Cause” in all material respects, but only to the extent that such conduct or event is reasonably curable.  
For purposes of this 2016 Offer Letter, “Disability” means that you are unable to engage in substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that is expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that you may transition to a part-time or advisory role with the Company, and that such transition shall not be deemed to be a termination without Cause for purposes of this 2016 Offer Letter, but that you shall be remain eligible for the separation benefits in this 2016 Offer Letter upon any subsequent termination of your transitioned role with the Company in the event such termination is under circumstances constituting a termination without Cause or due to death or Disability.

SEPARATION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

October 27, 2016

Kelly Breslin Wright

This Separation and Release Agreement (“Agreement”) confirms your separation and retirement from employment at Tableau Software, Inc. (the “Company”) and sets forth our entire agreement regarding your retirement.  The Effective Date of this Agreement shall be as stated in Section 13 herein.

		
	1.
	Separation Date.  Your last day of employment with the Company shall be December 31, 2016, or such earlier date that either you or the Company ends your employment earlier pursuant to Section 3 below.  Your last day of employment, whenever it occurs, shall be the “Separation Date.”  

		
	2.
	Transition Period. Between now and the Separation Date (the “Transition Period”), you will remain employed by the Company pursuant to the following terms:

		
	a.
	Duties.  During the Transition Period, you will remain employed by the Company as an advisor to, and will perform transition related duties as directed by, the CEO.  At all times, both during the Transition Period and after (to the extent terms survive the termination of your employment), you must continue to comply with all of the Company’s policies and procedures and with all of your statutory and contractual obligations to the Company (including, without limitation, your obligations under your Employee Confidentiality and Inventions Assignment Agreement). 

		
	b.
	Termination Date for Sales Compensation Plan.  For the purposes of your Sales Compensation Plan only, your “Termination Date” as such date is used therein shall be the Separation Date.

		
	c.
	Compensation/Benefits.  During the Transition Period, your base salary will remain the same, and you will continue to be eligible for the Company’s standard benefits, subject to the terms and conditions applicable to such plans and programs.  Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and unexercised stock options (“Options”) previously granted to you by the Company (the “Equity Awards”), will continue to vest under the existing terms and conditions set forth in the governing plan documents and associated restricted stock unit and option agreements between you and the Company.  ESPP 

contributions, if enrolled, will continue during the Transition Period.  If the Separation Date occurs prior to an ESPP purchase date, all amounts contributed through such date will be refunded via payroll.
3.Termination.  You are entitled to resign your employment for any reason.  Additionally, the Company is entitled to terminate your employment for any reason, with or without Cause (as defined below).  If, prior to December 31, 2016, your employment ends due to your death or disability, or you resign for any reason, or the Company terminates your employment without Cause, then you will be paid for any unpaid salary, commissions and vacation accrued through your Separation Date.  In addition, if the Company terminates your employment without Cause, then you will also (a) receive a lump sum payment equal to the salary you would have earned had you remained employed through December 31, 2016 (the “Severance”), and (b) remain eligible for the separation benefit set forth in Section 4 below, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.  If the Company terminates your employment with Cause, your employment will end immediately and you will not receive any further compensation or benefits from the Company (including the Severance and the separation benefit set forth in Section 4 below), except for any unpaid salary, commissions and vacation accrued through your Separation Date.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” for termination of your employment will mean any of the following: (i) your failure to substantially perform your duties and responsibilities to the Company or violation of a Company policy; (ii) your commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty or any other willful misconduct that has caused or is reasonably expected to result in injury to the Company; (iii) unauthorized use or disclosure by you of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company or any other party to whom you owe an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of your relationship with the Company; or (iv) your willful breach of any of your obligations under any written agreement with the Company.  If you become eligible for the Severance, you must execute the Separation Date Release attached hereto as Exhibit A on the Separation Date, and allow such release to become effective, as a precondition to receipt of the Severance.  The Severance, if paid, would be paid on the 30th day after the Separation Date, and would be subject to legal and normal withholdings and deductions.  
4.Separation Benefit.  You acknowledge and agree that you are not eligible to receive any severance benefits from the Company except as provided in this Agreement, and that the Company is not otherwise obligated to pay you any amount or provide you with any benefits as a result of your retirement or the termination of your employment.  Nevertheless, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3 above, if you remain employed by the Company through December 31, 2016 (or are terminated by the Company without Cause prior to such date) and sign the Separation Date Release attached hereto as Exhibit A on the Separation Date and allow that release to become effective, then the Company will accelerate the vesting of your RSUs and Options such that, as of the Separation Date, 100% of the unvested portion of the Equity Awards will be deemed fully vested as of the Separation Date. You agree that you will abide by the Company’s Insider Trading Policy as if you were an employee of the Company until such time as the next trading window opens after December 31, 2016, and thereafter to the extent required by such Insider Trading Policy.  To the extent you revoke the Separation Date Release as permitted by its terms, you agree that the Company may cancel or require reimbursement of any or all of the amounts associated with the vesting of the Equity Awards on or about December 31, 2016, and that you shall 

remain bound by the terms of this Agreement with the exception of the Separation Date Release. You acknowledge and agree that, absent this Agreement, you are not otherwise entitled to the accelerated vesting provided by this Section 4.

5.Health Insurance and Benefits.  Your Company-paid health benefits will continue through the last day of the month in which the Separation Date occurs. Pursuant to your rights under the COBRA statute and regulations, you have the opportunity to elect to continue group medical, dental and vision coverage through the Company for a period of 18 additional months.  You will be receiving COBRA enrollment paperwork from REHN & Associates, Inc. Your participation in all other employee benefit plans and programs will end either (a) on the Separation Date, or (b) on the last day of the month in which the Separation Date falls, as so provided in the applicable benefit plan or program; provided that the end of your participation in any pension benefit plan(s) in which you may have participated will be determined in accordance with the written plan documents governing those plan(s).

6.No Further Compensation.  You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you will not be due and will not receive any additional compensation, severance, or benefits after the Separation Date.

7.401(k).  If your 401(k) balance is under $1,000, the Company may request that you roll your vested 401(k) funds out of the Company-sponsored 401(k) retirement plan.  If you have an outstanding 401(k) loan balance, it becomes immediately due upon termination.  If you do not repay the loan, the outstanding loan balance will become taxable income as set forth in the Company’s 401(k) plan document.

8.Expense Reimbursement.  You agree that, within five days after the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement.  Your failure to submit such a statement within this time period will constitute your acknowledgment and admission that you have already submitted for reimbursement all business expenses that you incurred on behalf of the Company.  The Company will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice.  

9.Full Payment.  By the next regularly scheduled payroll following the Separation Date, the Company will pay you your normal wages for the most recent pay period through the Separation Date, plus your accrued but unused vacation hours, if any.  If your compensation includes commissions, then you will also be paid any commissions that are earned, as defined by the applicable Sales Compensation Plan Terms and Conditions, as of the Termination Date as provided as Section 2.b herein.  You will receive these payments regardless of whether you sign this Agreement.  You acknowledge that these payments, together with the payments you have already received, represent full payment of all compensation and benefits of any kind (including wages, salary, vacation, sick leave, commissions, bonuses, incentive compensation and equity participation) that you earned as a result of your employment by the Company, including pay for all hours worked.  In addition, any and all agreements to pay you compensation or benefits of any kind are terminated.  The Company 

owes you, and shall owe you, no further compensation or benefits of any kind, except as described above.

10.Return of Company Property.  You agree to return to the Company on the Separation Date all Company documents (and all copies thereof) and other Company property within your possession, custody, or control, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, drawings, records, business plans and forecasts, financial information, specifications, customer lists, programs, computer-recorded information, tangible property (including, but not limited to, computers, tablets, cell phones, credit cards, phone cards, entry cards and keys), and any other material of any kind which contains or embodies any proprietary or confidential information of the Company, and all reproductions thereof (including any information written or recorded in digital or electronic form).  Your timely return of all such Company documents and other property is a condition precedent to your receipt of the benefits provided under this Agreement.

11.Proprietary Information Obligations.  You hereby acknowledge your continuing obligations under your Employee Confidentiality and Inventions Assignment Agreement, including without limitation the obligations (a) not to use or disclose the Company’s confidential or proprietary information, (b) to disclose to the Company any patent applications filed by you or on your behalf, and (c) not to solicit or induce any of the employees of the Company to leave its employ.  A copy of your Employee Confidentiality and Inventions Assignment Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

12.Release of Claims.  
a.    General Release.  In consideration for the payments and benefits described herein, and as a material inducement of the Company to enter into this Agreement, you and your successors, heirs, executors, assigns, and (if applicable) marital community or domestic partnership community hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, release and forever discharge the Company, any Company-sponsored employee benefit plans, and all related organizations and affiliates, together with each of its and their respective past, present and future directors, officers, shareholders, trustees, fiduciaries, employees, agents and insurers, and each of its and their successors and predecessors, from any and all claims, actions, charges, rights, damages, promises or expenses of whatever nature (including attorneys’ fees and costs), either known or presently unknown, which you may now have, have ever had, or may in the future have, arising on or before the time you sign this Agreement.

sign this Agreement; (b) you should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement; (c) you have 21 days to consider this Agreement (although you may choose to voluntarily sign it sooner); (d) you have seven days following the date you sign this Agreement to revoke (in a written revocation sent to Brett Thompson, VP of Human Resources); and (e) this Agreement will not be effective until the date upon which the revocation period has expired, which will be the eighth day after you sign this Agreement (the “Effective Date”). 

14.Workers Compensation Claims.  You acknowledge and agree that you have already filed workers’ compensation claim(s) for any and all on-the-job injuries you suffered while employed by the Company, and that you have not suffered any on-the-job injuries for which you have not already filed a workers’ compensation claim. 
15.Additional Consideration for Receipt of Separation Benefit.  In addition to your agreement to be bound by the Release of Claims at Section 12, and the other provisions of this Agreement, you agree to the following:
		
	a.
	Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement.  In the event you fail to comply with your continuing obligations under your Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B, including but not limited to the obligations described at Section 11, you agree that, in addition to any other available remedies, the Company reserves the right to cancel or require reimbursement of any or all of the benefits provided to you under this Agreement.

		
	b.
	Agreement Not to Compete.  While you are employed by the Company and for 12 months after the Separation Date (the “Non-Competition Period”), you agree that you shall not, directly or indirectly, whether as owner, partner, investor, consultant, agent, employee, co-venturer or otherwise, compete with the Company or any of its affiliates or undertake any planning for any business competitive with the Company or any of its affiliates (“Restricted Activity”). Restricted Activity includes without limitation accepting employment or a consulting position with any person who is, or at any time within 12 months prior to the Separation Date has been, a competitor of the Company or any of its affiliates. For the purposes of this Agreement, the business of the Company and its affiliates shall include all products planned, researched, developed, under development, tested, manufactured, sold, licensed, leased or otherwise distributed or put into use by the Company or any of its affiliates, together with all services provided or planned by the Company or any of its affiliates, during your employment. The foregoing shall not prohibit your passive ownership of 2% or less of the equity securities of any publicly traded company.

I understand that the foregoing list is meant to be illustrative rather than inclusive.

4.

6.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, I am not hereby releasing the Company from any of the following claims or rights: (a) vested benefits under ERISA, worker’s compensation or unemployment compensation claims, (b) any other claim that may not be lawfully released by private agreement, or (c) any claims arising from the breach of the Agreement or this Separation Date Release.  In addition, nothing in this Separation Date Release prevents me from filing, cooperating with, or participating in any proceeding before an appropriate administrative agency.  
7.    I hereby represent that to date: (a) I have been paid all compensation owed and have been paid for all hours worked; (b) I have received all the leave and leave benefits and protections for which I am eligible pursuant to the federal Family and Medical Leave Act, or otherwise; and

Company, Third Party Information, unless expressly authorized by an officer of Company in writing.

During my employment by Company, I will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets of any former employer or other third party to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality, and I will not bring onto the premises of Company or use any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or other third party to whom J have an obligation of confidentiality, unless consented to in writing by that former employer or person. I will use in the performance of my duties only information that is generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to my own, is common knowledge in the industry or otherwise legally in the public domain, or is otherwise provided or developed by Company.

further such purposes with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.

4.ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES. I agree that (a) during the term of my employment by Company, I will  not, without Company's express written consent, engage in any employment or business activity that  is competitive with, or would otherwise conflict with my employment by, Company, and (b) for the period of my employment by Company and for one (I) year thereafter, I will not, either directly or indirectly, solicit or attempt to solicit any employee, independent contractor, or consultant of Company to terminate his, her or its relationship with Company in order to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to or for any other person or entity.
5.RETURN OF C OMPANY PR OPERTY.

	7.
	GENERAL PROVISIONS.

7.1    Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed, controlled, interpreted, and defined by and under the laws of the State of Washington, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the law of a different state. I hereby expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts for the county in which Company's principal place of business is located for any lawsuit filed there against me by Company arising from or related to this Agreement.
7.2    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be unimpaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

7.3    Survival. This Agreement shall survive the termination of my employment and the assignment of this Agreement by Company to any successor-in-interest or other assignee and be binding upon my heirs and legal representatives.
7.4    Employment. I agree and understand that nothing in this Agreement shall confer any right  with respect to continuation of employment by Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with my right or Company's right to terminate my employment at any time, with or without cause and with or  without advance notice.
7.5    Notices. Each party must  deliver all  notices or other communications required or permitted under this Agreement in writing to the other party at the address listed on the signature page, by courier, by certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or by a nationally-recognized express mail service. Notice will be effective upon receipt or refusal of delivery. If delivered by certified or registered mail, any such notice will be considered  to  have  been given  five (5)  business days after it was mailed, as evidenced  by the  postmark.   If delivered by courier or express mail service, any such notice shall be considered to have been given on the delivery date reflected by the courier or express mail service receipt.  Each party may change its address for receipt of notice by giving notice of such change to the other party.
7.6    Injunctive Relief. I acknowledge that, because my services are personal and unique and because I will have access to the Confidential Information of Company, any breach of this Agreement by me would cause irreparable injury to Company for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and, therefore, will entitle 

 
Company to injunctive relief (including specific performance). The rights and remedies provided to each party in this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies available to such party at law or in equity.
7.7    Waiver. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.
7.8    Export. I agree not to export, directly or indirectly, any U.S. technical data acquired from Company or any products utilizing such data, to countries outside the United States, because such export could be in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.
7.9    Entire Agreement. The obligations pursuant to sections of this Agreement titled "Confidentiality" and "Inventions" shall apply to any time during which l was previously employed, or am in the future employed, by Company as an independent contractor if no other agreement governs nondisclosure and assignment of inventions during such period. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matters hereof and supersedes and merges all prior communications between us with respect to such matters. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, or any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by me and the CEO of Company. Any subsequent change or changes in my duties, salary or compensation will not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement.

This Agreement shall be effective as of the first day of my employment with Company.

	Limited Exclusion Notification.

THIS IS TO NOTIFY you in accordance with Section 49.44.140 of the Revised Code of Washington that the foregoing Agreement between you and Company does not require you to assign or offer to assign to Company any Invention that you develop entirely on your own time without using Company's equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information, except for those Inventions that either:

a.    Relates directly to the Company's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development; or

		
	b.
	Result from any work performed by you for Company.

To the extent a provision in the foregoing Agreement purports to require you to assign an Invention otherwise excluded from the preceding paragraph, the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.

This limited exclusion does not apply to any patent or Invention covered by a contract between Company and the United States or any of its agencies requiring full title to such patent or Invention to be in the United States.
