 4. At-Will Employment Relationship. Executive’s employment with
Proflowers will be “at-will.” This means Executive’s employment is not for any specified period of time and may be terminated by Executive at any time for any reason. Likewise, Proflowers may terminate the employment relationship at
any time, with or without cause or advance notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Proflowers requests that Executive provide reasonable notice of termination as a professional courtesy to allow Proflowers to transition Executive’s duties and
responsibilities to other employees. No representative of Proflowers other than the President has the authority to alter the at-will employment relationship. Any change to the at-will employment relationship must be by specific, written agreement
signed by Executive and the President. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or should be construed to contradict, modify or alter this at-will policy.

Proflowers’ expense reimbursement policy. 
  
 6. Conflict
of Interest. Executive agrees not to engage in any work, paid or unpaid, that creates an actual or potential conflict of interest with Proflowers and, if Proflowers believes a conflict exists, Proflowers may ask Executive to choose whether to

competitors of Proflowers without Proflowers’ written consent during the term of Executive’s employment with Proflowers.

the business of Proflowers; (b) Executive’s material breach of this Agreement or Proflowers’s Employee Innovations and Proprietary Rights Agreement; (c) Executive’s conviction or entry of a plea of nolo contendere for fraud,

essential functions of Executive’s position, with or without reasonable accommodation, due to a mental or physical disability; or (f) Executive’s death. In the event Executive’s employment is terminated in accordance with this

completely extinguished. Executive will not be entitled to receive the Severance Payment described in subsection 8.1 above. 
  
 9. Agreement to Arbitrate. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Executive and Proflowers agree to arbitrate any controversy, claim or dispute
between them arising out of or in any way related to this Agreement, the employment relationship between Proflowers and Executive and any disputes upon termination of employment, including but not limited to breach of contract, tort, discrimination,
harassment, wrongful termination, demotion, discipline, failure to accommodate, family and medical leave, compensation or benefits claims, constitutional claims; and any claims for violation of any local, 

 
state or federal law, statute, regulation or ordinance or common law. For the purpose of this agreement to arbitrate, references to “Proflowers”
include all parent, subsidiary or related entities and their employees, supervisors, officers, directors, agents, pension or benefit plans, pension or benefit plan sponsors, fiduciaries, administrators, affiliates and all successors and assigns of
any of them, and this agreement shall apply to them to the extent Executive’s claims arise out of or relate to their actions on behalf of Proflowers. 
  
 9.1 Consideration. The mutual promise by Proflowers and Executive to arbitrate any and all disputes between them rather than litigate them before
the courts or other bodies, provides the consideration for this agreement to arbitrate. 
  
 9.2 Initiation of Arbitration. Either party may exercise the right to arbitrate by providing the other party with written notice of any and all claims forming the basis of such right in sufficient detail to
inform the other party of the substance of such claims. In no event shall the request for arbitration be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claims would be barred by the applicable statute of
limitations. 
  
 9.3 Arbitration Procedure. The arbitration
will be conducted in San Diego, California by a single neutral arbitrator and in accordance with the then current rules for resolution of employment disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The parties are entitled to
representation by an attorney or other representative of their choosing. The arbitrator shall have the power to enter any award that could be entered by a judge of the trial court of the State of California, and only such power, and shall follow the
law. In the event the arbitrator does not follow the law, the arbitrator will have exceeded the scope of his or her authority and the parties may, at their option, file a motion to vacate the award in court. The parties agree to abide by and perform
any award rendered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall issue the award in writing and therein state the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. 
  
 9.4 Costs of Arbitration. Proflowers shall
bear the costs of the arbitration filing and hearing fees and the cost of the arbitrator. 
  
 10. General Provisions. 
  
 10.1 Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations of Proflowers under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Proflowers. Executive shall not be entitled to assign
any of Executive’s rights or obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 10.2 Waiver. Either party’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision, or prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision
of this Agreement. 
  
 10.3 Severability. In the event any
provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to allow enforceability of the provision as so limited, it being intended
that Proflowers shall received the benefit contemplated herein to the fullest extent permitted by law. If a deemed modification is not satisfactory in the judgment of such arbitrator or court, the unenforceable provision shall be deemed deleted, and
the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby. 

 10.4 Interpretation; Construction. The headings set forth in this Agreement are for convenience
only and shall not be used in interpreting this Agreement. This Agreement has been drafted by Proflowers, but Executive has participated in the negotiation of its terms. Furthermore, Executive acknowledges that he has had an opportunity to review
and revise the Agreement and have it reviewed by legal counsel, if desired, and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation
of this Agreement. 
  
 10.5 Governing Law. This Agreement
will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the State of California. 
  
 10.6 Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered as follows with notice deemed given as
indicated: (a) by personal delivery when delivered personally, (b) by overnight courier upon written verification of receipt, (c) by telecopy or facsimile transmission upon acknowledgment of receipt of electronic transmission, or (d) by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, upon verification of receipt. Notice shall be sent to the addresses set forth below, or such other address as either party may specify in writing. 
  
 10.7 Cooperation. Following termination of employment, Executive
agrees to fully cooperate with Proflowers in all matters relating to the winding up of pending work on behalf of Proflowers and the orderly transfer of work to other employees of Proflowers. Executive shall also cooperate in the defense of any
action brought by any third party against Proflowers that relates in any way to Executive’s acts or omissions while employed by Proflowers. 
  
 10.8 Survival. Paragraphs 7 (“Confidentiality and Proprietary Rights”), 9 (“Agreement to Arbitrate”) and 10 (“General
Provisions”) of this Agreement shall survive Executive’s employment by Proflowers. 
  
 THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK

Agreement and the 1999 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan and related option documents described in Paragraph 3.2 of this Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties relating to this subject matter and supersedes all prior or
simultaneous representations, discussions, negotiations, and agreements, whether written or oral. This Agreement may be amended or modified only with the written consent of Executive and the President of Proflowers. No oral waiver, amendment or
