 2.2 Term. The term of employment of Employee by the Company shall commence on the Effective Date
and shall continue for the Term unless extended by mutual written agreement of Employee and the Company or earlier terminated as provided in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless notice is given by either party and received by the
other party at least sixty (60) days prior to the scheduled expiration date of the Term or the scheduled expiration date of any twelve-month renewal period of the Term pursuant to this Section 2.2, then the Term (as used in this agreement,
the “Term” includes the term of any twelve-month renewal period pursuant to this Section 2.2) shall automatically be extended for an additional period of twelve months beginning on the scheduled expiration date of the then current
Term. 
 2.3 Termination For Cause. Termination For Cause may be effected by the Company at any time during the Term and shall be
effected by written notification to Employee. Upon Termination For Cause, Employee shall be immediately paid all accrued but unpaid salary, and all accrued but unpaid vacation pay, all to the effective date of termination, but Employee shall not be
paid any other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including, without limitation, severance compensation or bonus, other than as required by law or pursuant to the Company’s benefit plans or reimbursement of expenses incurred as of the
effective date of termination in accordance with Company policy. 
 2.4 Termination Other Than For Cause or Resignation for Good Reason;
Failure to Renew Agreement. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Company may effect a Termination Other Than For
Cause at any time after giving at least thirty (30) days notice to Employee of such termination or pay in lieu of such notice, and Employee may effect a Resignation for Good Reason in accordance with procedures set forth in Section 2.1(b).
Upon the effective date of any Termination Other Than For Cause or Resignation for Good Reason: (a) Employee shall immediately be paid all accrued but unpaid salary and bonus, and all accrued but unpaid vacation pay, all to the effective date
of termination; (b) as severance compensation, Employee shall continue to be paid Employee’s then current base salary for the period set forth on Schedule A from the effective date of Termination Other Than For Cause or Resignation
for Good Reason (“Severance Period”); provided, that Employee shall have the right, exercisable in Employee’s sole judgment, to be immediately paid, in one-lump sum payment, an amount equivalent to Employee’s base salary for 24
months, rather than receiving such amount in regular payments over the term of the Severance Period, or alternatively, Employee shall have the right, exercisable in Employee’s sole judgment, to be immediately paid, in an initial lump sum
payment, an amount equivalent to Employee’s base salary for 12 months (one-half of the period set forth on Schedule A) and to be paid in a subsequent lump sum payment on the first anniversary of such effective date of Termination Other
Than For Cause or Resignation for Good Reason an amount equivalent to Employee’s base salary for 12 months (one-half of the period set forth on Schedule A), rather than receiving such aggregate amount in regular payments over the term of
the Severance Period; (c) until the earlier of twelve (12) months following the effective date of Termination Other Than For Cause or Resignation for Good Reason or when 
  

 3 

 provided by a successor employer, the Company shall make COBRA payments to continue Employee’s medical and dental
benefits (or pay Employee an amount equivalent to such COBRA payments) and shall make payments to continue Employee’s term life insurance (or pay Employee an amount equivalent to the premiums in effect prior to termination); (d) Employee
shall receive such other benefits, if any, as are set forth on Schedule A and (e) notwithstanding any provision of any plan or agreement to the contrary, all options to purchase Common Stock and other stock-based awards for the benefit
of Employee granted or assumed by the Company, whether prior to or after the Effective Date, shall fully vest immediately and Employee shall have the number of months set forth on Schedule A from the effective date of termination to exercise
such options, but Employee shall not be paid any other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, other than as required by law or pursuant to the Company’s benefit plans or reimbursement of expenses incurred as of the effective date of
termination in accordance with Company policy. If any Termination Other Than For Cause is the result of the death of Employee, all payments payable under this Section 2.4 (other than life insurance benefits) shall be paid to Employee’s
heirs or legal representative. 
 (b) If the Term is not renewed or extended for at least twelve (12) months on any expiration of the
Term, then: (i) Employee shall immediately be paid all accrued, but unpaid salary and bonus, and all accrued, but unpaid vacation pay, all to the date of such expiration; and (ii) as severance compensation, Employee shall continue to be
paid Employee’s then current monthly base salary for the shorter of (A) a period of 24 months from the date of the expiration of the Term or (B) the period ending on the date on which Employee commences new employment on a full time
basis (“New Employment”). The foregoing payment period is referred to as the “Non-Renewal Severance Period”. Employee shall have no obligation to accept full or part time employment with any person or party unless he deems such
position satisfactory in his sole judgment. Employee shall use reasonable efforts to obtain New Employment during the Non-Renewal Severance Period. Employee shall promptly notify the Company on the date that Employee commences New Employment. In
addition: (a) Until the earlier of twelve (12) months following the effective date of any expiration of this Agreement or when provided by a successor employer, the Company shall make COBRA payments to continue Employee’s medical and
dental benefits (or pay Employee an amount equivalent to such COBRA payments) and shall make payments to continue Employee’s term life insurance (or pay Employee an amount equivalent to the premiums in effect prior to termination); and
(b) notwithstanding any provision of any plan or agreement to the contrary, all options to purchase Common Stock and other stock-based awards for the benefit of Employee granted or assumed by the Company, whether prior to or after the Effective
Date, shall fully vest immediately and Employee shall have the number of months set forth on Schedule A from the effective date of termination to exercise such options, but Employee shall not be paid any other compensation or reimbursement of
any kind, other than as required by law or pursuant to the Company’s benefit plans or reimbursement of expenses incurred as of the effective date of termination in accordance with Company policy. 
 2.5 Voluntary Termination. In the event of a Voluntary Termination, the Company shall immediately pay to Employee all accrued but unpaid salary,
and all accrued but unpaid vacation pay, all to the effective date of termination, but no other compensation or reimbursement of any kind, including, without limitation, severance compensation or bonus, other than as required by law or pursuant to
the Company’s benefit plans or reimbursement of expenses incurred as of the effective date of termination in accordance with Company policy.

 2.6 Change in Control. If a Change in Control shall have occurred during the Term, in addition to
any rights Employee may have under applicable stock option plans and/or stock option agreements with the Company and in addition to any additional Change in Control rights set forth on Schedule A, the following shall apply: 
 (a) (i) If the Change in Control occurs when the Term has more than 12 months remaining, then the then current Term shall not be changed.

 (ii) If the Change in Control occurs when the Term has 12 months or less remaining, then the then current Term shall be extended to the
first anniversary of the Change in Control. 
 (b) (i) If a Change in Control shall have occurred during the Term, and if any of the
payments or benefits received or to be received by the Employee in connection with a Change in Control or the Employee’s termination of employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement with
the Company) (all such payments and benefits, excluding the Gross-Up Payment (as defined below), being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) will be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Excise Tax”), the Company shall pay, at the times specified in Section 2.6(b)(iv), to the Employee an additional amount or amounts (the “Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount paid
to or for the benefit of the Employee after the deduction of all federal and state income, excise, employment and any other taxes applicable thereto (but only to the extent imposed on the Employee) shall be equal to what it would have been had
Section 4999 not been enacted.. 
 (ii) Determinations of whether and to what extent the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise
Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax will be made by tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) reasonably acceptable to the Employee and selected by the members of the Company’s Board of Directors immediately prior to the Change in Control. Tax
Counsel may employ accountants, actuaries, economists, appraisers or other experts as he or she shall deem necessary to make the determinations required under this Paragraph (b)(ii). All fees and expenses of the Tax Counsel and those persons
employed by Tax Counsel in order to make the determinations required under this Paragraph (b)(ii) shall be borne solely by the Company. 
 (iii) The Gross-Up Payment shall be made upon the payment to the Employee of the Total Payments (or at the discretion of Employee, the Gross-Up Payment shall be made in installments as the Total Payments are paid to Employee), unless it is
initially determined by the Company or the Tax Counsel that the Total Payments are not subject to the Excise Tax but after payment of the Total Payments, it is finally determined following the proceedings set forth in Section 2.6(b)(iv) and
(v) that the Total Payments are subject to the Excise Tax, in which case the Gross-Up Payment shall be made upon the imposition upon the Employee of the Excise Tax. 
  

 5 

 (iv) The Employee shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that,
if successful, would require the payment by the Company of a Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after the Employee is informed in writing of such claim and shall
apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Employee shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) day period following the date on which the Employee gives
such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Employee in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest
such claim, the Employee shall: 
 (A) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim;

 (B) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time,
including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the Employee; 
 (C) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim; and 
 (D) permit the Company to control any proceedings relating to such claim as provided below; 
 provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, additional interest and penalties and related
legal, consulting or other similar fees) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Employee harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or other tax imposed upon the Total Payments (including interest and
penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. 
 (v) The Company shall
control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its
sole option, either direct the Employee to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Employee agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court
of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the Company directs the Employee to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to
the Employee on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold the Employee harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or other tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with
respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided, further, that if the Employee is required to extend the statute of limitations to enable the Company to contest such claim, the Employee may limit this extension solely to
such claim. The Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up 
  

 6 

 Payment would be payable hereunder and the Employee shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other
issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority. In addition, no position may be taken nor any final resolution be agreed to by the Company without the Employee’s consent if such position or resolution could
reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Employee (including any other tax position of the Employee unrelated to the matters covered hereby). 
 (vi) In the event that the Employee receives a refund of the Excise Tax previously paid, the Employee shall repay to the Company, within five (5) business days following the receipt of such refund of the Excise
Tax previously paid, the amount of such refund plus any interest received by the Employee from the Internal Revenue Service on the refund, and an amount equal to the reduction in the Employee’s Federal, state and local income tax resulting from
such repayment, and in such case it shall be assumed that the repayment is deductible, and that the Employee paid all such taxes at the highest applicable rates. If, after the receipt by the Employee of an amount advanced by the Company in
connection with an Excise Tax claim, a determination is made that Employee shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Employee in writing of its intent to contest the denial of such refund
prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination, such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid. 
 3. Salary and Benefits. 
 3.1 Base Salary. As payment for the services to be rendered by Employee as provided in
Section 1 and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2, the Company shall initially pay to Employee a “base salary” at the rate indicated on Schedule A, subject to deductions, payable bi-weekly in the same manner
as other Company employees receive their base compensation. 
 3.2 Bonus. Employee shall be eligible for an annual bonus as indicated
on Schedule A. 
 3.3 Fringe Benefits. Employee shall be eligible to participate in such of the Company’s benefit plans as
are now generally available or later made generally available to employees or executive officers of the Company. Such benefits shall at a minimum include medical, dental, 401(k) plan and term life insurance. Term life insurance coverage for Employee
shall be provided and maintained by the Company in an amount equal to no less than the greater of (1) the amount of life insurance coverage currently provided by Identix for Employee immediately prior to the date first above written, or
(2) the amount of life insurance coverage provided to the Company’s other executive officers generally, in each case at the Company’s sole cost at all times during the Term. In addition, Employee shall be entitled to any fringe
benefits set forth on Schedule A. 
 3.4 Initial Stock Option or Restricted Stock Award. On the Effective Date, Employee will
be granted initial equity based compensation as set forth on Schedule A. 
 3.5 Insurance. During the Term, the Company agrees
to keep in place a directors and officers insurance policy with coverage in an amount similar to the amount of 
  

 7 

 coverage provided for other Company officers and directors. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the
Company and Employee shall enter into an Indemnification Agreement in the form of Exhibit B hereto. 
 4. Annual Performance
Review. The Company shall perform an annual review of Employee’s performance and, in the discretion of the CEO and the Board of Directors of the Company, make appropriate increases in Employee’s base salary and determine whether
additional equity based compensation awards should be recommended to the Board of Directors of the Company. 
 5. Confidentiality,
Intellectual Property and Noncompetition. 
 5.1 Confidentiality. The Employee agrees that during the Term and hereafter:

 (a) The Employee has not and will not at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose or divulge any Confidential Information (as
hereinafter defined), except as reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the performance of the Employee’s duties for the Company, or except to the extent required by law (but only after the Employee, to the extent practicable given
the nature of the legal requirement, has provided the Company with reasonable notice and opportunity to take action against any legally required disclosure). As used herein, “Confidential Information” means all information
concerning the business of the Company or of any of its subsidiaries (“Related Companies”), or any customer or vendor of any of the Related Companies, (whether or not subject to copyright, patent or other intellectual property
protection) that has an independent economic value from not being readily known, is not ascertainable by proper means by others and is not generally known to the public, or which would constitute a trade secret as may be defined by the Uniform Trade
Secrets Act or under the laws governing this Agreement, and any oral, electronic or written communications thereof, including, but not limited to, specifications, designs, concepts, plans, programs, software, other developments relating to products
and services, proposal plans, marketing data and financial information, and all copies and tangible embodiments thereof (in whatever form or medium); provided, that Confidential Information shall not include any information that is publicly
available through no fault of the Employee or disclosed pursuant to applicable securities laws. 
 (b) The Employee has not and shall not
make use whatsoever, directly or indirectly, of any Confidential Information at any time, except as reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with the performance of the Employee’s duties for the Company. 
 (c) Upon the Company’s request at any time and for any reason, the Employee shall immediately deliver to the Company all materials (whether in
electronic or hard copy form) in the Employee’s possession which contain or relate to Confidential Information. 
 5.2 Intellectual
Property. 
 (a) All inventions, modifications, discoveries, designs, developments, improvements, processes, software programs, works of
authorship, documentation, formulae, data, techniques, know-how, secrets or intellectual property rights or any interest therein 
  

 8 

 (collectively, the “Developments”) made by the Employee, either alone or in conjunction with others, at
any time or at any place during his service with the Company, whether or not reduced to writing or practice during such period, which relate to the business in which any Related Company is then engaged or in which any Related Company then intends to
engage, shall be and hereby are the exclusive property of the Company without any further compensation to the Employee. Any Developments employed and made by the Employee, either solely or jointly with others, within six months following the
termination of the Employee’s services hereunder that relate to the Company’s actual day-to-day operations or core competencies in which the Employee was actively involved, shall be irrefutably presumed to have been made in the course of
such employment with the use of the Company’s time, materials or facilities. In addition, without limiting the generality of the prior sentence, all Developments which are copyrightable work by the Employee are intended to be “work made
for hire” as defined in Section 101 of the Copyright Act of 1976, as amended, and shall be and hereby are the property of the Company without any further compensation to the Employee. 
 (b) If, and to the extent, any of the Developments is not considered a “work for hire,” the Employee shall, without further compensation,
assign to the Company and does hereby assign to the Company, the Employee’s entire right, title and interest in and to all Developments. At the Company’s expense and at the Company’s request, the Employee shall provide reasonable
assistance and cooperation, including, without limitation, the execution of documents in order to obtain, enforce, defend and/or maintain the Company’s proprietary rights in the Developments throughout the world. The Employee hereby irrevocably
designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as the Employee’s agent and attorney-in-fact (which designation and appointment shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall survive the Executive’s
death or incapacity), to act for and in the Employee’s behalf to execute and file any such applications, extensions or renewals and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of such letters patent, other
intellectual property registrations or filings, or such other similar documents, with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Employee. 
 5.3 Noncompetition. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that in the performance of this Agreement, he will be brought into frequent contact, either in person, by telephone, through electronic means or through
the mails, with existing and potential customers of the Company. The Employee also acknowledges that any Confidential Information gained by him during the Term has been developed by the Company through substantial expenditures of time and money and
constitutes valuable and unique property of the Company. The Employee further understands and agrees that the foregoing makes it necessary for the protection of the Company’s business that the Employee not compete with the Company during the
Term and not compete with the Company for a reasonable period after the Term, as further provided in the following provisions. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that so long as he is an employee of the Company and for 12 months thereafter:

 (a) The Employee will not, directly or indirectly, individually or as a consultant to, or employee, officer, director, manager,
stockholder, partner, member or other owner or participant in any business entity, other than the Company or a Related Company, engage in or assist any other person or entity to engage in any business which directly or indirectly competes with any
business in which the Company or any Related Company is 
  

 9 

 engaging or in which the Company or any Related Company plans to engage or is actively evaluating engaging, during or at
the time of the termination of the Employee’s engagement hereunder, anywhere in the United States or anywhere else in the world where the Company or any Related Company does business, or plans to do business or is actively evaluating doing
business; provided that nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Employee from being a passive owner of less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding stock or any class of securities of any corporation or other entity which is publicly
traded or privately held; and 
 (b) The Employee will not, directly or indirectly, individually or as a consultant to, or employee,
officer, director, manager, stockholder, partner, member or other owner or participant in any business entity solicit or endeavor to entice away from the Company or any Related Company, or offer employment or any consulting arrangement to, or
otherwise materially interfere with the business relationship of the Company or any Related Company with, any person or entity who is, or was within the one year period immediately prior to the termination of the Employee’s engagement
hereunder, (i) employed by or a consultant to the Company or any Related Company or (ii) a customer or client of, supplier to or other party having material business relations with the Company or any Related Company. 
 5.4 Remedies. Without limiting the remedies available to the Company and any Related Company, the Employee acknowledges that a breach of any of
the covenants contained in this Section 5 could result in irreparable injury to the Company and, as applicable, a Related Company, for which there might be no adequate remedy at law, and that, in the event of such a breach or threat thereof,
the Company and any affected Related Company, as the case may be, shall be entitled to obtain a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary injunction and a permanent injunction restraining the Employee from engaging in any activities
prohibited by this Section 5 or such other equitable relief as may be required to enforce specifically any of the covenants contained in this Section 5. The foregoing provisions and the provisions of this Section 5 shall survive the
term of this Agreement and the termination of the Employee’s engagement hereunder, and shall continue thereafter in full force and effect. 
 6. Miscellaneous. 
 6.1 Waiver. The waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement by any party shall not be
construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach or failure of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. 
 6.2 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications made in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given on the date of delivery if delivered

 Dr. Mohamed Lazzouni 
 296 Concord Rd. 
 Billerica, MA 
 Dear Mohamed: 
 Upon
completion of the merger between Viisage and Identix, I am pleased to offer you the position of Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer for the newly established corporation, “NewCo”, reporting to the NewCo Vice Chairman and
Chief Strategy Officer. Until the completion of the merger, you will continue to serve as the SVP, Chief Technology Officer of Viisage Technology Inc. You will report in this position to the CEO of Viisage. 
 The terms of the offer are as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Base Salary: $250,000 per year beginning upon the date of closing of the Identix merger. 

  

	 	2.	Bonus: Annualized on target of $80,000 for calendar year 2006. This bonus is based on 50% individual performance criteria to be mutually established by you and the CEO and
50% on the corporate objectives. This bonus will be evaluated at the end of the year and awarded in the first quarter of the following year. 

  

	 	3.	Benefits: You will continue to participate in the Company’s standard employee benefit plans, as may be in effect from time to time, for which you qualify. In addition,
your annual vacation will be calculated at the rate of four weeks annually. 

  

	 	4.	Severance Agreement: If (i) your employment is terminated by the Company or (ii) the Company fails to continue you in the position of Senior Vice President or
reduces your compensation in bad faith or (iii) the Company changes your job location by more than fifty (50) miles, and you resign as a result of any of the above, the Company will continue to pay your then current base salary and in
accordance with regular payroll practices and continue your current benefit coverage and premium contributions for twelve months following the termination date; provided that no severance payments will be made if your employment with the Company is
terminated for “cause.” “Cause” shall mean you have (i) been convicted of or entered a plea of no contest relating to any illegal act that materially and adversely reflects upon the business, affairs or reputation of
Viisage, or (ii) materially neglected to discharge your responsibilities as an executive employee of Viisage, provided that any termination under this clause (ii) shall occur only after the written notice to you and an opportunity to cure
such breach within 30 days of such notice. For purposes of this Section 5, the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business. 

  

	 	5.	Proprietary Rights Agreement. As a condition of your employment, the proprietary rights agreement you entered into upon your initial employment containing provisions
concerning confidentiality, assignment of inventions, non-competition and non-solicitation will continue in effect. 

 296
Concord Road, Billerica, MA 01821 Tel: 978-932-2200 Fax: 978-932-2225 

	 	6.	At Will Employment. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that you will not be obligated to remain employed at the Company for any specific
period of time, and may cease your employment for any reason. Likewise, the Company will not be obligated to employ you for any specific period, and may terminate your employment with or without cause. 

  

	 	7.	Stock Options. Upon completion of the IDNX merger, you will be issued a grant of stock options and/or restricted shares commensurate with your position as deemed appropriate
by the NewCo Board of Directors. Your options and restricted shares will accelerate in full upon a change in control of the Company. A “change in control” means and shall be deemed to occur if any of the following occurs: (i) any
Person is or becomes the beneficial owner of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities; or (ii) individuals comprising the Incumbent Board, or
individuals approved by a majority of the Incumbent Board, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company; or (iii) approval by the stockholders of the Company of a merger or consolidation of the
Company, other than (A) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent more than 50% of the combined voting securities of the Company or such
surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or (B) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company in which no Person acquires more than 50% of the Company’s then
outstanding voting securities; or (iv) approval by the stockholders of the Company of (A) a complete or substantial liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or (B) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company. An underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, including the completion of any sale of common stock pursuant to an underwriter’s over-allotment option, and any offering to employees pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-8 or other similar offering shall not be counted toward a change in control for these purposes. For purposes of the foregoing: “Incumbent Board” shall mean those individuals who comprised the Board of
Directors of the Company on the date thirty days following the merger hereof; and “Person” shall have the meaning used in Sections 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act. 

  

	 	8.	Retention Bonus. In addition to your base salary and benefits, you are also eligible for a retention bonus equal to $100,000 payable to you on the second anniversary of the
closing of the Identix merger, assuming you continue your employment with NewCo through that period. 

  

	 	9.	Miscellaneous. This agreement, along with the proprietary rights agreement described above and any stock option agreements issued to you under the Plan, sets forth the terms
of your employment with the Company and supersedes any prior representations or agreements, whether written or oral. This agreement may not be modified or amended except by a written agreement signed by you and an authorized officer of the Company.
In addition to any other remedies available to it, the Company will have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent any violation of this agreement. This agreement will be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, 

 without regard to choice of law provisions. The failure of either party to exercise any right or the
waiver by either party of any breach will not prevent a subsequent exercise of such right or be deemed a waiver of any later breach of the same or any other term of this agreement. If any provision of this agreement is held to be invalid, illegal,
or unenforceable, such provision will only be modified to the extent required to be enforceable under applicable law. 
 If this offer is
acceptable, please indicate your acceptance and agreement by countersigning below. Mohamed, this opportunity is a direct reflection of your loyalty, professionalism and contributions to Viisage. It also provides you a great leadership opportunity
for the continued growth of NewCo going forward. Thanks for all of your support and leadership to date.
