While you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activity (whether full-time or part-time) that would create a conflict of interest with the Company.

4.Stock Options. 
•Subject to the approval of the Company's Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee, you will be granted an option to purchase 188,272 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Option").  The exercise price per share of the Option will be determined by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee when the Option is granted. The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to options granted under the Company's 2011 Stock Options and Grant Plan (the "Plan"), as described in the Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement. You will vest in 25% of the Option shares after 12 months of continuous service, and the balance will vest in equal monthly installments over the next 36 months of continuous service, as described in the applicable Stock Option Agreement.

•In the event that (i) a "Change of Control" (as defined herein) occurs and (ii) within 12 months following such Change of Control your employment is terminated without "cause" (as defined below) or you terminate your employment for "Good Reason", then vesting of your remaining unvested options will be accelerated by one year, and up to 25% of your grant will immediately become vested. "Good Reason" means the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) a substantial adverse change in the nature or scope of your  responsibilities, authority,  powers, functions or duties within or  to the Company; (b) a material reduction in your annual base salary from the base salary in effect immediately prior to such Change of Control; or (c) a substantial reduction in benefits other than across-the-board benefit reductions similarly affecting all or substantially all management employees of the Company; or (d) you are required to relocate to offices more than fifty (50) miles from your principal place of business immediately prior to such Change of Control.
•For the purpose of this letter, "Change in Control" shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity or person, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the capital stock of the Company immediately  prior to such consolidation, merger or  reorganization, represents less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) immediately after such consolidation, merger or reorganization or (ii) a sale, lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. Equity financings, public offerings and/or administrative reorganizations and recapitalizations will not constitute a "Change of Control" hereunder.
•In the event that an equity financing event occurs in the 9 months following your start with the company, you may be granted additional options to keep your total of granted options in aggregate to a minimum of 2% of outstanding company shares at the time of closing of said financing event. This grant will be subject to the approval of the company's Board of Directors or its Compensation committee. The exercise price per share of the Option will be determined by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee when the Option is granted. The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to options granted under the Company's 2011 Stock Options and Grant Plan (the "Plan"), as described in the Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement.  You will vest in 25% of the Option shares after 12 months of continuous service, and the balance will vest in equal monthly installments over the next 36 months of continuous service, as described in the applicable Stock Option Agreement.
