Based upon the foregoing, and in consideration of the mutual promises contained in the Agreement, Executive and Irvine Sensors, for its
benefit and the benefit of the Company, the Parties agree as follows: 
 1. Consideration. 

1.1 Effective Date. The “Effective Date” of this Agreement shall be the date of receipt of this fully executed Agreement
from Executive. Executive represents he has the full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. 
 1.2
Options/Stock. The Parties agree that Options 1, 2, 3, 4 and 8 (collectively, the “Continuing Options”) are subject to “Ordinary Retirement” and accordingly, any unvested amounts thereunder will vest in full on the
Retirement Date and shall remain outstanding for the balance of the term of such Continuing Options notwithstanding the termination of Service of Executive. The Parties further agree that Options 5, 6 and 7 shall not be subject to Ordinary
Retirement and shall terminate on the close of business on the Retirement Date. The remaining terms and conditions of the Continuing Options shall remain as set forth in the original option documentation for such Continuing Options. Executive agrees
that except as set forth above, Executive does not hold or own other options, warrants or other rights to acquire any securities of equity interests in the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies,, and agrees that any options in
any subsidiaries or affiliated companies that he may currently own or hold (other than Option 8 above) shall terminate and be cancelled upon the Retirement Date. Executive also confirms that he does not hold any outstanding securities or other
equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries except as follows: 250,000 shares of common stock of iNetWorks Corporation, 15,000 shares of common stock in MicroSensors, Inc., and 32,500 shares of common stock of RedHawk Vision, Inc.

 1.3 Salary and Benefits. The Parties agree that upon the eighth calendar day following the Effective Date, Executive
hereby resigns from any positions he currently holds with any of the Company’s subsidiaries and related entities. Subject to Executive’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and provided he has not revoked the

salary of $260,000, less applicable payroll withholdings that the Company deems necessary and advisable (“Base Salary”). Executive’s employment shall terminate at the close of business on the Retirement Date and on that date,
he shall become entitled to the Severance Benefits set forth in Section 6(e)(i) of the Employment Agreement, with the exception that the Parties hereby agree that in lieu of any payments to the Executive under Section 6(e)(i)(4)to continue

Company’s regular pay practice is modified, the timing of the salary continuation payments will be modified to correspond to the changed practice, and the amount of each salary continuation payment shall be recalculated to ensure that the
remaining unpaid aggregate salary continuation obligations are paid in equal increments. As a condition to receiving any such Severance Benefits, Executive shall provide an additional release to the Company on or after the Retirement Date in

results only in a fine or other noncustodial penalty) or of any crime arising out of any material fraud or act of dishonesty; (ii) the Board’s determination that Executive has had repeated failures to perform material services required
under this Agreement; (iii) willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of Executive’s duties; (iv) gross disregard or willful violation of the legal rights of any employees of the Company or of the Company’s
written policies regarding harassment, discrimination; or (v) the violation or breach by Executive of his Confidentiality Agreement with the Company: (vi) the material breach of any provision of this Agreement after 10 days written notice
to Executive of such breach and a reasonable opportunity to cure such breach; or (vii) any material financial dishonesty involving the Company or its assets, including, without limitation, misappropriation of the Company’s funds or
property. 
 Non-Competition while Employed. Executive acknowledges and agrees that given the extent and nature of the confidential and
proprietary information Executive will obtain during the course of his employment with the Company and the fiduciary nature of Executive’s position with the Company, it would violate Executive’s duty of loyalty to the Company and be
inevitable that such confidential information would be disclosed or utilized by the Executive should she obtain employment from, or otherwise become associated with, an entity or person that is engaged in a business or enterprise that directly
competes with the Company. Consequently, during any period for which Executive is receiving payments from the Company, either as wages or as a severance benefit (including all Severance Benefits hereunder), Executive shall not, without prior written
consent of the Company, directly or indirectly own: manage, operate, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or be employed by or provide advice to, any enterprise that is engaged in any business directly
competitive to that of the Company at the time of the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company; provided, however, that such restriction shall not apply to any passive investment representing an interest of less than 1% of an
outstanding class of publicly-traded securities of any company or other enterprise where Executive does not provide any management, consulting or other services to such company or enterprise. The parties currently agree that the Company is engaged
in the business of (i) thermal imaging for defense and non-defense applications and (ii) unmanned sensing platform and systems. Furthermore the company is engaged in using high density chip stacking technology for (i) LADAR imaging
systems, (ii) MEMS based microsystems, (iii) High speed information security systems for anomaly or signature based intrusion detection/prevention systems and (iv) miniature computing, processing and communication modules.

 RE: Amendment of your
August Employment Letter 
 Dear Dan: 

As you know, your employment letter dated August 15, 2011 (the “August Employment Letter”) was conditioned upon the Company
completing a satisfactory review of your background and references. As of today, this review has not been satisfactorily completed. 

Therefore, this letter (“Amendment”) amends your August Employment Letter. Until your background review is complete, you are employed by
the Company in a transitional role, as the SVP of Finance. Once your background review is satisfactorily completed, your August Employment Letter will go into effect and supersede this Amendment. Until then, the salary and benefits set forth in your
offer of August Employment Letter shall govern, with the following changes: 
  

	 	(a)	Executive Bonus: You will not be eligible for the Target Bonus Percentage set forth in your August Employment letter; and 

 

	 	(b)	Stock Option Grant: You will not be eligible to receive the Stock Option Grant set forth in your August Employment Letter. 

All of the remaining terms and conditions of your August Employment Letter shall apply with full force and effect to your transitional employment. In
addition, the Conditions set forth below shall apply. 
 Conditions 
 This offer, and any employment pursuant to this offer, is conditioned upon the following: 
  

	 	•	 	 You must execute and deliver to the Company your signed copy of this Amendment, without modification, no later than September 15, 201 1. If your
executed Amendment is not received by such date, both your August Employment Letter and this Amendment will be deemed terminated for cause, void, and of no further force and effect. By signing and accepting this offer, you represent and warrant that
you are not subject to any pre-existing contractual or other legal obligation with any person, company or business enterprise which may be an impediment to your employment with, or your providing services to, the Company, as its employee. If you
accept employment, you may not either bring onto Company premises or use in any manner any confidential or proprietary information developed, used or disclosed to you while you were employed by some other company or entity.

  

	 	•	 	 Your consent to, and results that are satisfactory to the Company of, reference and background checks and drug screening, which the Company conducts on
prospect new employees. You must also complete and return such documentation as the Company deems necessary or convenient in order to complete your personnel file.
