Services by or through Operator for Owner pursuant to this Agreement, Operator conclusively shall be deemed an independent contractor, with the right and authority to direct and control all services and other work being performed by the employees of
Operator and its Affiliates and all Subcontractors. Owner shall have no right or authority to supervise or give instructions to any such Persons and such Persons at all times shall be under the direct and sole supervision and control of Operator. It

authorize Operator to act as an agent, principal, servant or employee for Owner for any purpose whatsoever and, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, Operator shall not hold itself out as an agent, principal, servant or employee of Owner

(and on behalf of) Owner and at all times in accordance with the Standard of Care and in good faith. Owner hereby delegates to Operator and authorizes Operator to, and Operator shall, perform 

  
 7 

 
each of the Services set forth in this Section 3.3 in accordance with the Standard of Care, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.4 or otherwise contained in
this Agreement. 
  

	 	3.3.1	General. Operator shall perform any and all acts and things necessary, requisite or proper for (a) the efficient and safe Management, Design, Procurement, and Construction of (i) the Sandpiper
Facilities as described on Schedule II to the LLC Agreement and (ii) any other Facilities contemplated in the Budget and (b) the operation, maintenance, upkeep and repair of the Facilities, including, in each case, entering into (or
causing Owner to enter into) any Contract with respect to the Sandpiper Facilities and all of the other Facilities or the Business or incurring any expense authorized in an approved Budget or as otherwise permitted hereunder. In addition, Owner
hereby authorizes Operator to do and perform any and all acts and responsibilities delegated to Operator in the LLC Agreement. 

  

	 	3.3.2	Administration of Business. Operator shall administer the Business and all other related and ancillary affairs of the Owner, including the regulatory, financial, accounting and tax affairs of Owner, maintaining
the financial, tax and accounting records of Owner and preparing and distributing financial statements, notices and reports (including reports to Governmental Authorities) in accordance with Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4,
7.6, 7.7 and 7.8 of this Agreement and as otherwise required pursuant to the LLC Agreement. 

  

	 	3.3.3	Purchase and Sale of Materials and Supplies; Entry into Contracts. Operator shall (or shall cause Owner to) (a) purchase or cause to be purchased all necessary materials and supplies, (b) incur
(or cause to be incurred) all such expenses and (c) enter into (or cause to be entered into) such Contracts, in each case, as may be necessary in connection with the Design, Procurement, Construction, operation and/or maintenance of the

	 	3.3.4	Personnel. Operator and/or its Affiliate(s) shall employ such personnel as Operator (and/or its Affiliate(s)) may deem reasonably necessary or beneficial with respect to (or in connection with its performance of)
the Services. Also, Operator may utilize its or any of its Affiliates’ other employees to provide all or any portion of the Services. Operator shall employ reasonable efforts to maintain the number of personnel performing services for Owner at
the optimum level and to keep them organized in a manner which will afford cost effective and efficient day-to-day operation of the Business. Operator shall ensure that all such personnel expenses incurred in connection with its obligations under
this Agreement are paid, including compensation, salary, wages, overhead and administrative expenses incurred by Operator and its Affiliates and if applicable, social security, taxes, workers compensation insurance, benefits and other such expenses.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the provisions of Section 10.2, Operator shall indemnify and save harmless Owner from all claims of liability for wages, salary, taxes or benefits in respect of Operator’s personnel;
provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Operator shall be entitled to charge such wages, salary, taxes or benefits to Owner to the extent permitted by this Agreement. 

 

	 	3.3.5	 Payment of Expenses. In addition to its other payment and reimbursement obligations set forth in this Agreement and the LLC Agreement, Owner
shall be responsible for payment of Operator’s fees and expenses as set out in this Agreement. To the extent of available funds in the Management Account, Operator shall pay and discharge all costs

  
 8 

	 	
and expenses on a timely basis. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Operator be liable in connection with the performance of its services hereunder or otherwise in
breach of this Agreement if Operator fails, or is otherwise unable, to perform any of such services or its other obligations hereunder due to the failure of Owner to pay when due any amounts payable hereunder by Owner. 

 

	 	3.3.6	Liens. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.2, Operator shall protect and defend Owner, the Facilities and the other assets of the Business (including rights of way related to the
Facilities) from any Liens arising by, through or under Operator, Operator’s Affiliates, and its and their respective representatives, contractors or subcontractors of any level, agents or employees. Operator shall not have any liability to
(and shall not be obligated to release, indemnify or hold harmless) Owner (and each Owner Indemnitee) for any Claims and/or Liabilities suffered by Owner (or such Owner Indemnitee) as a result of any Liens (other than Liens that arise in the
ordinary course of carrying out the Services or that are approved by Super-Majority Management Committee Approval pursuant to the LLC Agreement) being placed on the Facilities or the other assets of the Business (including rights of way related to
the Facilities) except to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Liens arise as a result of the Operator failing to comply with the Standard of Care. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operator shall have no liability with respect to any Lien
that arises as the result of a failure by Owner to satisfy its obligations to Operator under this Agreement.

	 	10.1.4	Material Adverse Effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any and all Claims made against Owner or the Facilities which involve a criminal complaint or which more likely than not could
have a material adverse effect on the Business shall be referred to Owner for handling. 

 10.2 Mutual Release and
Indemnification. 
  

	 	10.2.1	 Indemnification by Owner. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any failure by
Operator to act in accordance with the Standard of Care), Owner shall be responsible for, shall pay on a current basis and hereby releases, defends, indemnifies and holds harmless Operator and its Affiliates (other than Owner) and their respective
partners, members, directors, officers, managers and employees (the “Operator Indemnitees”) from and against all Liabilities and Claims arising out of, attributable to, in connection with or incidental to any
act or omission of any Operator Indemnitees in carrying out the Services (including the administration, operation or maintenance of any of the Facilities) or any other activities carried out or work performed or required by this Agreement
INCLUDING AS A RESULT OF THE NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) AND ANY OTHER LEGAL FAULT, INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY, OF ANY OPERATOR INDEMNITEES, Owner OR ANY THIRD PARTY; provided,
however, that Owner will not be required to release or indemnify any Operator Indemnitees from any Liabilities or Claims to the extent such Liabilities or Claims; arise 

  
 19 

	 	
out of or in connection with or are attributable or incident to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Operator Indemnitee. 

 

	 	10.2.2	Indemnification by Operator. Except as provided in Section 10.2.4, but otherwise notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Operator shall be responsible for, shall pay on a current basis and
hereby releases, defends, indemnifies and holds harmless the Owner Indemnitees from and against all Liabilities and Claims to the extent arising out of or in connection with or attributable or incidental to the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of any Operator Indemnitee. 

  

	 	10.2.3	Survival of Indemnification Provisions; No Double Recovery. The provisions of this Section 10.2 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
nothing shall prohibit Operator from pursuing its indemnity rights under this Section 10.2 against Owner for any Liabilities and Claims suffered or incurred by Operator in excess of the insurance coverages required to be maintained by
Owner pursuant to this Agreement. In calculating any amount to be paid by an Indemnifying Party by reason of the provisions of this Section 10.2, the amount shall be reduced by all cash tax benefits and other cash reimbursements
(including net insurance proceeds) actually received (directly or indirectly, including by virtue of the Indemnified Party’s direct or indirect ownership interest in Owner) by the Indemnified Party with respect to the applicable Claim or
Liability. 

  

	 	10.2.4	Recommended Activities. If Operator makes a written recommendation regarding a specific operational issue not caused by the Standard of Care to Owner that has resulted in, or would reasonably be expected to
result in, physical damage or harm to Persons or property or any material adverse effect on Owner, the Business or the Facilities and that would not otherwise constitute an Emergency, and Owner does not approve the recommendation or the method by
which that Operator wishes to implement such recommendation for any reason (a “Recommended Activity”), Operator shall not be liable and Owner hereby releases and defends, indemnifies and holds harmless the
Operator Indemnitees from and against all Liabilities and Claims arising out of, attributable to, in connection with or incidental to Owner’s failure to approve such Recommended Activity, or Operator’s failure to undertake a Recommended
Activity absent Owner’s approval thereof. Owner’S AGREEMENT TO RELEASE AND INDEMNIFY OPERATOR INDEMNITEES PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 10.2.4 SHALL INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, CONCURRENT, GROSS, ACTIVE OR
PASSIVE) AND WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF OPERATOR INDEMNITEES, Owner, ANY MEMBER OR ANY OF THEM.) For clarification, this Section 10.2.4 shall apply and Owner hereby agrees to release and to indemnify the Operator Indemnitees even if the
failure to undertake the Recommended Activity would otherwise amount to gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

  

	 	10.2.5	 Disclaimer of Liability. SUBJECT TO THE LAST SENTENCE OF THIS SECTION 10.2.5, BUT OTHERWISE NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY
HEREIN, AS BETWEEN THE PARTIES, A PARTY’S DAMAGES RESULTING FROM A BREACH OR VIOLATION OF ANY COVENANT, AGREEMENT OR CONDITION CONTAINED HEREIN OR ANY ACT OR OMISSION ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO ACTUAL DAMAGES
AND NONE OF THE OPERATOR INDEMNITEES OR THE Owner INDEMNITEES SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER FROM OPERATOR OR Owner OR THEIR 

  
 20 

	 	
RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY RELEASES THE OTHER PARTY FROM ALL SUCH CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES OTHER THAN
ACTUAL DAMAGES. IF A PARTY BECOMES OBLIGATED TO PAY A PERSON NOT A PARTY ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, AND SUCH PARTY IS ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEN SUCH
PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION RIGHT SHALL INCLUDE ALL INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY AND PUNITIVE DAMAGES IT IS OBLIGATED TO PAY. 

  

	 	10.2.6	Indemnification Procedures. For purposes of this Article 10, the term “Indemnifying Party,” when used in connection with particular Liabilities, shall mean the
party or parties having an obligation to indemnify another party or parties with respect to such Liabilities pursuant to this Article 10, and the term “Indemnified Party,” when used in connection
with particular Liabilities, shall mean the party or parties having the right to be indemnified with respect to such Liabilities by another party or parties pursuant to this Article 10. 

 

	 	(a)	To make a claim for indemnification under Section 10.2.1 or 10.2.2 (as applicable) an Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of its claim under this Section 10.2.6,
including specific details, underlying facts and the specific basis under this Agreement for its claim (the “Claim Notice”). 

  

	 	(b)	In the event that the claim for indemnification is based upon a claim by a Third Party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall provide its Claim Notice
promptly after the Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of the Third-Party Claim and shall enclose a copy of all papers (if any) served with respect to the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified
Party to give notice of a Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 10.2.6 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under Section 10.2.1 or 10.2.2 (as applicable) except to the extent such
failure results in insufficient time being available to permit the Indemnifying Party to effectively defend against the Third-Party Claim or otherwise prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against the Third-Party Claim.

  

	 	(c)	In the case of a claim for indemnification based upon a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of the Claim Notice to notify the Indemnified Party whether it shall
assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party is authorized, prior to and during such thirty (30) day period, to file any motion, answer or other pleading that it shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its
interests or those of the Indemnifying Party and that is not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party. 

  

	 	(d)	 If the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of the Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and
proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in contesting any Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified

  
 21 

	 	
Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third-Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 10.2.6(d). An Indemnifying
Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, (i) settle any Third-Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto that does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from
all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim or (ii) settle any Third-Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto in any manner that may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party (other than as a
result of money damages covered by the indemnity). 

  

	 	(e)	If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend against the Third-Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party,
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party. Any settlement of the Third-Party Claim shall require the consent of the Indemnifying Party. 

  

	 	10.2.7	Sole Remedy. Other than the removal of Operator as the construction manager and/or operator (as applicable) of the Facilities pursuant to Section 2.3.2(c), the right to receive indemnification from
Operator pursuant to Section 10.2.2 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Owner for any breach by Operator of any provision of this Agreement. 

  

	11.0	Confidential Information; Publicity. 

 11.1 Confidential Information. 

 

	 	11.1.1	The Parties agree that information related to confidential shipper information, pricing, cost data and other commercially or operationally sensitive information relating to the Business that is typically considered
confidential shall be considered “Confidential Information” hereunder, shall be kept confidential and shall not be disclosed during the term of this Agreement to any Third Party, except (in each of the following cases, to the
extent not prohibited by the provisions of Section 15(13) of the Interstate Commerce Act): 

 (a) to an
Affiliate of Owner or a Member; 
 (b) to the extent any Confidential Information is required to be furnished in compliance with applicable
Law, or pursuant to any legal proceedings or because of any order of any Governmental Authority that is binding upon a Party; 
 (c) to
prospective or actual attorneys engaged by any Party where disclosure of such Confidential Information is essential to such attorney’s work for such Party; 

(d) to prospective or actual contractors and consultants engaged by any Party where disclosure of such Confidential Information is essential
to such contractor’s or consultant’s work for such Party; 
 (e) to a bona fide prospective transferee of a Member’s Units to
the extent appropriate in order to allow the assessment of such Units (including a Person with whom a Member and/or its Affiliates are conducting bona fide negotiations directed toward a merger, consolidation or the sale of a majority of its or an
Affiliate’s shares), as long as the Member provides ten (10) days prior written notice to Owner of its intention to share such Confidential Information and the transferee executes 

  
 22 

 
a confidentiality agreement with Owner and Operator containing substantially similar terms and conditions as those set forth in this Section 11.1; 

(f) to a bank or other financial institution to the extent appropriate to a Party arranging for financing; 

(g) to the extent such Confidential Information must be disclosed pursuant to any rules or requirements of any stock exchange having
jurisdiction over a Party or its Affiliates; provided that if such Party desires to disclose Confidential Information in an annual or periodic report to its or its Affiliates’ shareholders and the public and such disclosure is not
required pursuant to any rules or requirements of any stock exchange, then such Party shall comply with Section 11.2; 
 (h) to
its respective employees, subject to each Party taking customary precautions to ensure such Confidential Information is kept confidential; and 

(i) any Confidential Information which, through no fault of or breach of this Agreement by a Party, becomes a part of the public domain. 

11.1.2 Disclosure pursuant to Section 11.1.1(d), 11.1.1(e) or 11.1.1(f) shall not be made unless prior to such
disclosure the disclosing Party has obtained a written undertaking from the recipient to keep the Confidential Information strictly confidential for the term of this Agreement and to use the Confidential Information for the sole purpose described in
Section 11.1.1(d), 11.1.1(e) or 11.1.1(f), whichever is applicable, with respect to such disclosing Party. 

11.1.3 Subject to Section 6.3.4, for the duration of the license granted to Owner, Owner shall keep confidential and
not disclose to any Third Party any of the Operator Intellectual Property that is licensed to Owner by Operator pursuant to Section 6.3.4 (the “Licensed Intellectual Property”), except: 

(a) to the extent such Licensed Intellectual Property is required to be disclosed in compliance with applicable Law, or pursuant to any
legal proceedings or because of any order of any Governmental Authority that is binding upon Owner (provided that (i) Owner shall give written notice to Operator of any such actual or anticipated disclosure requirement as soon as
reasonably possible with sufficient details to allow Operator to contest any such disclosure requirement and (ii) Owner shall take such steps as may be reasonably necessary, upon Operator’s instruction and that are consistent with
applicable Law, to protect the confidentiality of such Licensed Intellectual Property); 
 (b) to prospective or actual attorneys
engaged by Owner where disclosure of such Licensed Intellectual Property is essential to such attorney’s work for Owner; 
 (c) to
prospective or actual contractors and consultants engaged by Owner (including any sublicensee contemplated by Section 6.3.4) where disclosure of such Confidential Information is essential to such contractor’s or consultant’s work for
Owner; and 
 (d) to a bank or other financial institution to the extent appropriate to a Party arranging for financing. 

11.1.4 Disclosure pursuant to Section 11.1.3(c) or 11.1.3(d) shall not be made unless prior to such disclosure Owner has
obtained a written undertaking from the recipient to keep the Licensed Intellectual Property strictly confidential and to use the Licensed Intellectual Property for the sole purpose described in Section 11.1.3(c) or 11.1.3(d),
whichever is applicable. 

  
 23 

 11.1.5 In connection with the transfer of all or substantially all of the Facilities, Owner shall
cause the assignee or transferee to agree to confidentiality obligations with respect to the Licensed Intellectual Property on substantially the same terms as those set forth in Section 11.1.3 and Section 11.1.4. 

11.2 Publicity. 

11.2.1 Without reasonable prior notice to the other Party, no Party will issue, or permit any agent or Affiliate of it to issue, any
press releases or otherwise make, or cause any agent or Affiliate of it to make, any public statements with respect to this Agreement, the LLC Agreement, any Confidential Information or the activities contemplated hereby or thereby, except where
such release or statement is deemed in good faith by such releasing Party to be required by Law or under the rules and regulations of a recognized stock exchange on which shares of such Party or any of its Affiliates are listed, and in any case,
prior to making any such press release or public statement, such releasing Party shall provide a copy of the proposed press release or public statement to the other Party reasonably in advance of the proposed release date as necessary to enable such
other Party to provide comments on it; provided such other Party must respond with any comments within two (2) Business Days after its receipt of such proposed press release. 

11.2.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1 or 11.2.1, any Party or Affiliate of a Party may disclose
information regarding the Business that is not Confidential Information in investor presentations, industry conference presentations or similar disclosures. If a Member wishes to disclose any Confidential Information in investor presentations,
industry conference presentations or similar disclosures, such Member must first (i) provide the other Party with a copy of that portion of the presentation or other disclosure document containing such Confidential Information and
(ii) obtain the prior written consent of the other Party to such disclosure (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

12.4 Dispute Resolution. Claims and controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be determined and resolved in
accordance with the following procedures: 
 12.4.1 Any Claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the meaning of
its provisions, or the proper performance of any of its terms, its breach, termination or invalidity (each, a “Dispute”) shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures specified in this Section 12.4, which
until the completion of the procedures set forth in Section 12.4.3 shall be the sole and exclusive procedure for the resolution of any such Dispute, except that any Party, without prejudice to the following procedures, may file a
complaint to seek preliminary injunctive or other provisional judicial relief, if in its sole 

  
 25 

 
judgment that action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage or to preserve the status quo. Despite that action the Parties shall continue to participate in good faith in the procedures

in this Section 12.4 with respect to a Dispute not resolved in the ordinary course of business must give written notice of the Dispute to the other Party (a “Dispute Notice”). The Dispute Notice shall include

of intent should arise. 
 12.7 Assignment. This Agreement and its attendant rights may not be assigned, transferred,
subcontracted or otherwise conveyed by either Party without the express written consent of the other Party; provided, however, a Party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an

 12.10
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstances shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, and such invalidity or unenforceability does not destroy the basis of the bargain between

12.11 Waiver. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by any Party of any breach or default by any other Party in the performance by

part of any Party to complain of any act or to declare any other Party in default, regardless of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver of rights hereunder.

benefit of each Party and its respective permitted successors and assigns. 
 12.13 Exhibits. In the event of any conflict

 Exhibit 10.14.1 

AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This Amendment (“Amendment”) to the Employment Agreement (as defined below) is made and entered into as
of October 15, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), by and between RetailMeNot, Inc., formerly known as WhaleShark Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Louis Agnese, an individual
(the “Executive”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company (then operating as WhaleShark Media, Inc.) and Executive previously
entered into an Employment Agreement effective as of March 1, 2013 (the “Employment Agreement”); and 

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive wish to amend the Employment Agreement in the manner set forth herein, pursuant to Executive’s
request. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises and agreements contained in the Employment Agreement and other good and
valuable consideration, the Company and Executive agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Section 1.6 of the Employment Agreement shall be amended to add the following language as a new Section 1.6.3: 

“1.6.3. Termination Without Cause – Not In Connection with a Change in Control. Subject to the provisions set forth in
this Agreement, in the case of a termination of Executive’s employment hereunder Without Cause in accordance with Section 1.5.4 above: (i) Company shall pay Executive an amount equivalent to six months of Executive’s then
Base Salary, subject to the tax withholding specified in Sections 1.4.1 above, payable as set forth herein (“Termination Severance Payment”); and (ii) to the extent Executive participates in any medical,
prescription drug, dental, vision and any other “group health plan” of the Company immediately prior to the Termination Date, the Company shall pay to Executive in a lump sum a fully taxable cash payment in an amount equal to six times the
monthly premium cost to Executive of continued coverage for Executive (and for Executive’s spouse and dependents to the extent participating in such plans immediately prior to the Termination Date) that would be incurred for continuation
coverage under such plans in accordance with Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and Part 6 of Title 1 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1986, as amended, less applicable tax withholding payable on
the first payday following the 30th day after Executive’s termination date (Executive may, but is not obligated to, use such payment toward the cost of continuation coverage premiums). Company’s obligation to provide Executive with the
Termination Severance Payment is contingent upon Executive’s execution of a general release of claims satisfactory to the Company, with such release becoming effective on or before 30 days following Executive’s termination date. Payment of
the Termination Severance Payment will commence on the first payday following the 30th day after Executive’s termination date and continue over a six (6) month period in equal installments, with payments made on Company’s regular
paydays. Such release will not affect Executive’s continuing obligations to the Company under the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. The Company’s obligation to pay and Executive’s right to receive the payments and
benefits set forth herein shall cease in the event of Executive’s material breach of any of his obligations under this Agreement or the Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement. 

  
 1 

	 	2.	Except as specifically amended, the Employment Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as originally executed. 

  

	 	3.	This Amendment may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures were upon the same instruments. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment is hereby executed to be effective as of the date set forth above.
