employ Executive as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company during the Period of Employment (as defined in Section
3), and Executive does hereby accept and agree to such hiring, engagement, and employment, on the terms and conditions expressly

Executive shall be permitted to (i) engage in charitable and community affairs, and (ii) to make investments of any character in
any business or businesses and to manage such investments (but not be involved in the day-to-day operations of any such business);
provided, in each case, and in the aggregate, that such activities do not interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties
hereunder or conflict with the provisions of Sections 14 and 15, and further provided that Executive shall not serve as a director

The “Period of Employment”
shall, unless sooner terminated as provided herein, be three (3) years commencing on May 28, 2013 (the “Effective Date”)
and ending with the close of business on the last day of the Company’s fiscal year 2016. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
commencing with May 28, 2015, and on each May 28 thereafter (each an “Extension Date”), the Period of
Employment shall be automatically extended for an additional one-year period, unless the Company or Executive provides the other
party hereto sixty (60) days’ prior written notice before the next scheduled Extension Date that the Period of Employment

any extension that becomes applicable pursuant to the preceding sentence.

 

4. COMPENSATION

 

(a)               
BASE SALARY. During the Period of Employment, the Company shall pay Executive, and Executive agrees to accept from
the Company, in payment for his services, a base salary of five hundred and eighty-three thousand dollars ($583,000) per year (“Base
Salary”), payable in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices in effect from time to time (but in
no event less frequently than in monthly installments). The Board shall consider not less frequently than annually upward adjustment
to Executive’s Base Salary. The determination of whether Executive’s Base Salary will be upwardly adjusted is within
the sole and absolute discretion of the Board of Directors.

 

(b)              
ANNUAL INCENTIVE COMPENSATION. During the Period of Employment, Executive shall be entitled to participate in any
annual incentive or bonus plan or plans maintained by the Company for its executive officers of the Company generally, in accordance
with the terms, conditions, and provisions of each such plan as the same may be changed, amended, or terminated, from time to time
in the discretion of the Board.

 

(c)               
EQUITY COMPENSATION. During the Period of Employment, Executive shall be eligible to receive grants of stock options,

Upon (or as may be necessary to give effect
to such acceleration, immediately prior to) a Change of Control event, as such term is defined in Section 7.3 of the Company’s
2004 Performance Incentive Plan, all of Executive’s then-outstanding and otherwise unvested outstanding equity awards shall
be deemed immediately vested, notwithstanding any other provision of the applicable plans or award documentation to the contrary.

 

5. BENEFITS

 

(a)               
HEALTH AND WELFARE. During the Period of Employment, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all health and
welfare benefit plans and programs and all retirement, deferred compensation and similar plans and programs generally available

and programs.

plans and programs generally available to all other executive officers of the Company as in effect from time to time, subject to
any restrictions specified in such plans and programs.

 

(c)               
PERSONAL TIME OFF AND OTHER LEAVE. Executive shall be entitled to such amounts of paid personal time off and other
leave, as from time to time may be allowed to the Company’s executive officers generally or as approved by the Board specifically.

 

(d)              
BUSINESS EXPENSES. During the Period of Employment, reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in the performance
of Executive’s duties hereunder shall be reimbursed by the Company in accordance with the Company’s business expense
reimbursement policies as in effect from time to time. At the latest, reimbursement shall be made on or before the last day of
Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of expenses eligible for
reimbursement during any taxable year of Executive shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable
year of Executive.

 

(e)               
AUTOMOBILE. To the extent provided to other executive officers of the Company, during the Period of Employment, Executive
shall be entitled to receive an automobile allowance or a leased automobile and reimbursement for expenses associated with the
operation and maintenance of such automobile. The Company will reimburse Executive upon presentation of vouchers and documentation
for any such operational and maintenance expenses which are consistent with the usual accounting procedures of the Company.

 

6. DEATH OR DISABILITY

 

(a)               
DEFINITION OF PERMANENTLY DISABLED AND PERMANENT DISABILITY. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Permanently
Disabled” and “Permanent Disability” shall mean Executive’s inability, because of physical or
mental illness or injury, to perform substantially all of his customary duties pursuant to this Agreement, even with a reasonable
accommodation, and the continuation of such disabled condition for a period of ninety (90) continuous days, or for not less than
one hundred eighty (180) days during any continuous twenty-four (24) month period. Whether Executive is Permanently Disabled shall
be certified to the Company by a Qualified Physician (as hereinafter defined). The determination of the individual Qualified Physician
shall be binding and conclusive for all purposes. As used herein, the term “Qualified Physician” shall mean
any medical doctor who is licensed to practice medicine in the State of Executive’s residence. Executive and the Company
may in any instance, and in lieu of a determination by a Qualified Physician, agree between themselves that Executive is Permanently
Disabled. The terms “Permanent Disability” and “Permanently Disabled” as used herein may have meanings
different from those used in any disability insurance policy or program maintained by Executive or the Company.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

 

(b)              
VESTING ON DEATH OR DISABILITY. Upon any termination of the Period of Employment and Executive’s employment
hereunder by reason of Executive’s death or Permanent Disability, as defined in Section 6(a) (“Death or Disability
– Definition of Permanently Disabled and Permanent Disability”), any then-outstanding and otherwise unvested stock
options, restricted stock and any other equity or equity-based awards granted by the Company to the Executive shall thereupon automatically
be deemed vested and remain exercisable for the lesser of three years or the term of the award, notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement or applicable plans but subject to the Company’s ability to terminate the awards in a change in control
or similar circumstances pursuant to the applicable plan and award agreements.

 

(c)               
TERMINATION DUE TO DEATH OR DISABILITY. If Executive dies or becomes Permanently Disabled during the Period of Employment,
the Period of Employment and Executive’s employment shall automatically cease and terminate as of the date of Executive’s
death or the date of Permanent Disability (which date shall be determined by the Qualified Physician or by agreement, under Section
6(a) above, and referred to as the “Disability Date”), as the case may be. In the event of the termination of
the Period of Employment and Executive’s employment hereunder due to Executive’s death or Permanent Disability, Executive
or his estate shall be entitled to receive:

 

(i)                
a lump sum cash payment, payable within ten (10) business days after termination of Executive’s employment, equal
to the sum of (x) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder, one
times his then current base salary and (y) any earned but unpaid annual incentive compensation in respect of the most recently
completed fiscal year preceding Executive’s termination of employment hereunder (the “Earned/Unpaid Annual Bonus”);
and

 

(ii)              a pro-rated portion of the target
annual incentive compensation, if any, that Executive would have been entitled to receive pursuant to Section 4(b) in respect of
the fiscal year in which termination of Executive’s employment occurs, based upon the percentage of such fiscal year that
shall have elapsed through the date of Executive’s termination of employment, payable when such annual incentive would otherwise
have been payable had Executive’s employment not terminated.

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, following such termination of Executive’s employment due to Executive’s death or Permanent Disability, except
as set forth in Sections 6(b) and 6(c), and except for Executive’s rights (if any) under the plans, arrangements and programs
referenced in Sections 4(b), 4(c) and 5, Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or other benefits under this
Agreement.

 

In the event Executive’s employment
is terminated on account of Executive’s Permanent Disability, he shall, so long as his Permanent Disability continues, remain
eligible for all benefits provided under any long-term disability programs of the Company in effect at the time of such termination,
subject to the terms and conditions of any such programs, as the same may be changed, modified, or terminated for or with respect
to all executive officers of the Company.

 

7. TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY

 

(a)               
TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. The Board of Directors of the Company may, by providing written notice to Executive, terminate
the Period of Employment and Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause at any time. The term “Cause”
for purpose of this Agreement shall mean:

 

		(i)	Executive’s conviction of or entrance of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony; or

 

		(ii)	Executive is engaging or has engaged in material fraud, material dishonesty, or other acts of willful and continued misconduct
in connection with the business affairs of the Company; or

 

		(iii)	Conviction of criminal theft, embezzlement, or other criminal misappropriation of funds by Executive from the Company; or

 

		(iv)	Executive’s continued and substantial failure to perform the duties hereunder (other than as a result of total or partial
incapacity due to physical illness), which failure is not cured within thirty (30) days following written notice by the Board of
Directors of the Company to Executive of such failure; provided, however, that (A) it shall not be Cause if Executive is making
good faith efforts to perform duties and (B) this provision shall not apply to any qualitative dissatisfaction by the Company with
Executive’s performance of his duties hereunder; or

 

		(v)	Executive’s continued breach of the provisions of Sections 14 and/or 15 of this Agreement, which breach is not cured
within thirty (30) days following written notice by the Board of Directors of the Company to Executive of such breach.

 

If Executive’s employment is terminated
for Cause, the termination shall take effect on the effective date (pursuant to Section 27 (“Notices”)) of written
notice of such termination to Executive. A determination by the Board that Cause exists shall be effective only if approved at
a Board meeting (in person or telephonic) by at least a majority of the Board (not counting the Executive if he is then a member
of the Board). The Executive is entitled to be present (with counsel) at such meeting and respond to any basis that may be asserted
as constituting Cause (a summary of which shall be supplied to the Executive in writing at least ten (10) days before any such
meeting).

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

 

In the event of the termination of the Period
of Employment and Executive’s employment hereunder due to a termination by the Company for Cause, then Executive shall be
entitled to receive: (i) a lump sum cash payment, payable within ten (10) business days after termination of Executive’s
employment equal to the sum of (A) accrued but unpaid Base Salary as of the date of termination of Executive’s employment
hereunder (including any accrued but unpaid personal time off) and (B) any Earned/Unpaid Annual Bonus in respect of the most recently
completed fiscal year preceding termination of Executive’s employment hereunder.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, following such termination of Executive’s employment due to termination by the Company for Cause, except as set
forth in this Section 7(a), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or other benefits under this Agreement.

 

If the Company attempts to terminate Executive’s
employment pursuant to this Section 7(a) and it is ultimately determined that the Company lacked Cause, in addition to any other
non-contractual remedies Executive may have, the provisions of Section 7(b) (“Termination by the Company-Termination Without
Cause”) shall apply and Executive shall be entitled to receive the payments called for by Section 7(b) (“Termination
by the Company-Termination Without Cause”).

 

(b)              
TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE. The Company may, with or without reason, terminate the Period of Employment and Executive’s
employment hereunder without Cause at any time, by providing Executive written notice of such termination. In the event of the
termination of the Period of Employment and Executive’s employment hereunder due to a termination by the Company without
Cause (other than due to Executive’s death or Permanent Disability), then Executive shall be entitled to receive:

 

(i)                
a lump sum cash payment, payable within sixty (60) days after termination of Executive’s employment equal to the sum
of (A) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder (including any
accrued but unpaid personal time off), (B) the Earned/Unpaid Annual Bonus, if any; and (C) an amount equal to the product of the
Executive’s then current Base Salary and then current target annual incentive bonus times three.

 

(ii)              
A pro-rated portion of the annual incentive compensation, if any, that Executive would have received pursuant to Section
4(b) in respect of the fiscal year in which termination of Executive’s employment occurs as though Executive’s employment
had not been terminated, with such pro-ration based upon the percentage of such fiscal year that shall have elapsed through the
date of the termination of Executive’s employment, payable when such annual incentive would otherwise have been payable had
Executive’s employment not terminated.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

 

(iii)            
 any remaining unvested stock options or restricted stock shall thereupon automatically be deemed vested and remain exercisable
for the duration of the term of such award, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or applicable plans (but subject
to the Company’s ability to terminate the awards in a change in control or similar circumstances pursuant to the applicable
plan and award agreements); and

 

(iv)            
continued participation in the Company’s group health insurance plans, if currently offered, or a lump sum payment
to procure substantially similar health care coverage on a public or private exchange until the earlier of (A) the expiration of
the two (2) years from the effective date of termination or (B) Executive’s eligibility for financial support in a group
health plan of a subsequent employer or entity for which Executive provides consulting services; provided, however, that the amount
otherwise payable to Executive pursuant to Section 7(b)(i)(C) shall be reduced by the amount of any cash severance or termination
benefits paid to Executive under any other severance plan, severance program or severance arrangement of the Company and its affiliates
(but not reduced by any other payment to Executive whatsoever, including (without limitation) any payment by the Company or any
affiliate of the Company in consideration of stock or any other property).

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, following such termination of Executive’s employment due to termination by the Company without Cause, except as
set forth in this Section 7(b), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or other benefits under this Agreement.

 

As a condition precedent to any Company
obligation to the Executive pursuant to this Section 7(b), the Executive shall, upon or promptly (and in all events within twenty
one days unless a forty-five day period is required under applicable law, in which case the period shall be forty-five days) following
his last day of employment with the Company, provide the Company with a valid, executed, written release of claims (in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A or such other form as modified by the Company for executive officers) and such release shall have
not been revoked by the Executive pursuant to any revocation rights afforded by applicable law. The Company shall have no obligation
to make any payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 7(b) unless and until the release contemplated by this Section 7(b) becomes
irrevocable by the Executive in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. If the maximum period of time in which
Executive has to consider and revoke such release spans two different calendar years, payment of the applicable benefits shall
(to the extent required in order to avoid any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”) be made in the second of those two years.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

 

8. TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE

 

(a)               
TERMINATION WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Executive shall have the right to terminate the Period of Employment and Executive’s
employment hereunder at any time without Good Reason (as defined below) upon thirty (30) days prior written notice of such termination
to the Company. Any such termination by the Executive without Good Reason shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as
a termination by the Company for Cause and the provisions of Section 7(a) shall apply.

 

(b)              
TERMINATION WITH GOOD REASON. The Executive may terminate the Period of Employment and resign from employment hereunder
for “Good Reason” if any of the following occur without Executive’s consent:

 

	 	(i)	if the Company requires Executive to relocate his principal office to a location outside of Orange County, California; or
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	if the Company fails to provide Executive with the compensation and benefits called for by this Agreement; or
	 	 	 
	 	(iii)	if the Company materially diminishes Executive’s authority, duties, responsibilities, or
	 	 	 
	 	(iv)	if the Company materially breaches any provision of this Agreement;

  

provided, however, that none of the events described above shall
constitute Good Reason unless Executive shall have notified the Board of Directors in writing describing the event(s) which constitute
Good Reason within sixty (60) days of the initial existence of such event(s) and then only if the Company shall have failed to
cure such event within thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of such written notice; and provided, further, that in
all events the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Corporation shall not constitute a termination for Good
Reason unless such termination occurs not more than one (1) year following the initial existence of the event(s) claimed to constitute
Good Reason.

 

Any such termination by Executive for Good
Reason shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as a termination by the Company without Cause and the provisions of
Section 7(b) shall apply; provided, however, that if Executive attempts to resign for Good Reason pursuant to this Section 8(b)
and it is ultimately determined that Good Reason did not exist, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from employment without
Good Reason and the provisions of Section 8(a) (“Termination Without Good Reason”) and, by reference therein, the provisions
of Section 7(a) (“Termination For Cause”), shall apply.

 

9. EXCLUSIVE REMEDY

 

Executive agrees that the payments contemplated
by this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole contract remedy for any termination of his employment and Executive covenants
not to assert or pursue any other contractual remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to any termination of employment.

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

 

10. EXPIRATION OF PERIOD OF EMPLOYMENT

 

(a)ELECTION NOT TO EXTEND PERIOD
OF EMPLOYMENT. If either party elects not to extend the Period of Employment pursuant to Section 3, unless Executive’s
employment is earlier terminated pursuant to Sections 6, 7 or 8, termination of Executive’s employment hereunder shall be
deemed to occur on the close of business on the day immediately preceding the anniversary of the next Extension Date following
the delivery of the Non-Extension Notice pursuant to Section 3. If the Company elects not to extend the Period of Employment, Executive’s
termination will be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as a termination by the Company without Cause under Section 7(b);
provided, however, that the applicable lump sum payment due pursuant to a non-renewal shall be one and one half times Executive’s
then current Base Salary only. If Executive elects not to extend the Period of Employment, Executive’s termination will be
treated for all purposes under this Agreement as a termination by Executive without Good Reason under Section 8(a).

 

(b)CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT BEYOND EXPIRATION
OF PERIOD OF EMPLOYMENT. If either party elects not to extend the Period of Employment pursuant to Section 3, but the parties
want to continue Executive’s employment without a written contract, such continued employment will be at will and shall not
be deemed to extend any of the provisions of this Agreement. At such time, Executive’s employment may thereafter be terminated
at will by either Executive or the Company; provided, however, that the provisions of Sections 14, 15 and 16 shall survive any
termination of this Agreement or Executive’s termination of employment hereunder.

 

11. POSSIBLE BENEFIT REDUCTION

 

Notwithstanding anything else contained
herein to the contrary, to the extent that any payment, distribution, transfer or other benefit of any type to or for Executive
by the company or any of its parents, subsidiaries or other affiliates, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (including, without limitation, any accelerated vesting of stock options or
other equity-based awards granted by the Company or any of its parents, subsidiaries or other affiliates pursuant to the Agreement
or otherwise) (collectively, the “Total Payments”) is or will be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999
of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Total Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the maximum amount
of the Total Payments (after reduction) shall be one dollar ($1.00) less than the amount which would cause the Total Payments to
be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code; provided that such reduction in Total Payments shall be made
only if the reduction results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of a greater amount of Total Payments compared
to the amount of Total Payments that Executive would receive, on an after-tax basis (for the purposes of clarity), taking into
account Executive’s payment of the Excise Tax and any similar taxes due from Executive, if he received the full amount of
the Total Payments. If such a reduction is required, and unless Executive has otherwise notified the Company of the order in which
benefits are to be reduced and such instructions from Executive do not result in any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section
409A of the Code, the Company shall reduce the Total Payments in the following order: (i) reduction of any cash severance; (ii)
reduction of any accelerated vesting of equity awards other than stock options; (iii) reduction of accelerated vesting of stock
options; and (iv) reduction of other Total Payments.

 

    	9

    	 

    

 

 

12. CONSISTENT TREATMENT

 

If compensation or benefits plans, programs
or arrangements are offered to other executive officers of the Company, the Executive shall have the right to participate in such
plans, programs and arrangement on a basis not less favorable to the Executive than the terms and conditions of such plans, programs
and arrangements generally applicable to the other executive officers of the Company.

 

13. MEANS AND EFFECT OF TERMINATION

 

Any termination of Executive’s employment
under this Agreement shall be communicated by written notice of termination from the terminating party to the other party. The
notice of termination shall indicate the specific provision(s) of this Agreement relied upon in effecting the termination and shall
set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances alleged to provide a basis for termination, if any such basis is required
by the applicable provision(s) of this Agreement.

 

14. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

 

Executive acknowledges and recognizes the
highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Company and its affiliates and accordingly agrees as follows:

 

(a)               
During the period of Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, (i) engage
in any business for Executive’s own account that competes with the business of the Company or its affiliates (including,
without limitation, businesses which the Company or its affiliates have specific plans to conduct in the future and as to which
Executive is aware of such planning), (ii) enter the employ of, or render any services to, any person engaged in any business that
competes with the business of the Company or its affiliates, (iii) acquire a financial interest in any person engaged in any business
that competes with the business of the Company or its affiliates, directly or indirectly, as an individual, partner, shareholder,
officer, director, principal, agent, trustee or consultant. During the period of Executive’s employment by the Company and
for a period of one year thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, interfere
with business relationships (whether formed before or after the date of this Agreement) between the Company or any of its affiliates
and clients, customers, suppliers, partners, members or investors of the Company or its affiliates.

 

(b)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Executive may, directly or indirectly, own, solely as an investment,
securities of any person engaged in the business of the Company or its affiliates which are publicly traded on a national or regional
stock exchange or on an over-the-counter market if Executive (i) is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group which controls,
such person and (ii) does not, directly or indirectly, own five percent (5%) or more of any class of securities of such person.

 

    	10

    	 

    

 

 

(c)               
During the Restricted Period, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit or encourage any employee or consultant
of the Company or its affiliates to leave the employment of the Company or its affiliates.

 

(d)              
During the Restricted Period, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or encourage to cease to work with the
Company or its affiliates any clients or potential clients with the Company or its affiliates.

 

(e)               
It is expressly understood and agreed that although Executive and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this
Section 14 to be reasonable, if a final determination is made by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction that the time
or territory or any other restriction contained in this Agreement is an unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions
of this Agreement shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to
such maximum extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be enforceable. Alternatively, if any arbitrator or court
of competent jurisdiction finds that any restriction contained in this Agreement is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot
be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained
herein.

 

15. CONFIDENTIALITY.

 

Executive will not at any time (whether
during or after his employment with the Company), unless compelled by lawful process, disclose or use for his own benefit or purposes
or the benefit or purposes of any other person, firm, partnership, joint venture, association, corporation or other business organization,
entity or enterprise other than the Company and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, any trade secrets, or other confidential
data or information relating to customers, development programs, costs, marketing, trading, investment, sales activities, promotion,
credit and financial data, manufacturing processes, financing methods, plans, or the business and affairs of the Company generally,
or of any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to information which is not
unique to the Company or which is generally known to the industry or the public other than as a result of Executive’s breach
of this covenant. Executive agrees that upon termination of his employment with the Company for any reason, he will return to the
Company immediately all memoranda, books, papers, plans, information, letters and other data, and all copies thereof or therefrom,
in any way relating to the business of the Company and its affiliates, except that he may retain personal notes, notebooks and
diaries that do not contain confidential information of the type described in the preceding sentence. Executive further agrees
that he will not retain or use for his account at any time any trade names, trademark or other proprietary business designation
used or owned in connection with the business of the Company or its affiliates.

SEPARATION AND GENERAL RELEASE AGREEMENT

 

 

 

In exchange and consideration of the covenants
undertaken and releases contained in this Severance and General Release Agreement (“Agreement”), _________________
(“Employee”) and Resources Connection, Inc. (“Resources”), agree as follows:

 

 

1.                 
Termination: Effective ______________, 20__, Resources and Employee mutually agree that Employee’s employment
with Resources and its affiliates shall terminate. Accordingly, Resources and Employee acknowledge that any employment or contractual
relationship between them terminated on ____________, 20__, and that they have no further employment or contractual relationship
except as may arise out of this Agreement.

 

[OR]

 

Resignation: Effective ______________, 200__,
Resources and Employee mutually agree that Employee will resign [his/her] position as ________________ and that [his/her]
employment with Resources and its affiliates shall be terminated. Accordingly, Resources and Employee acknowledge that any employment
or contractual relationship between them will terminate on __________, 20__, and that they have no further employment or contractual
relationship except as may arise out of this Agreement.

 

2.                 
Severance: As a severance payment, Resources shall pay to Employee the equivalent of _______________ (__)
weeks of compensation, less standard withholding and authorized deductions. As part of the severance package, Resources also agrees
to pay to Employee a sum equivalent to the cost of ____ (__) months of COBRA coverage for Employee at Employee’s current
benefit elections, less standard withholding and authorized deductions. [These payments/This payment] shall be made in one
lump sum within fourteen (14) days after the execution of this Agreement. [Note: If over 40, must be at least 10 days after.]
Employee confirms that [he/she] has been paid any and all accrued wages, including any bonus, retirement, and any other
payments or benefits and none shall accrue beyond ________________, 20__, other than as set forth in this Agreement.

 

3.

belonging to Resources.

 

5.                 
No Admission of Liability: Resources expressly denies any violation of any of its policies, procedures, state
or federal laws or regulations. Accordingly, while this Agreement resolves all issues between Employee and Resources relating to
alleged violation of Resources’ policies or procedures or any state or federal law or regulation, if any, this Agreement
does not constitute an adjudication or finding on the merits and it is not, and shall not be construed as, an admission by Resources
of any violation of its policies, procedures, state or federal laws or regulations. Moreover, neither this Agreement nor anything
in this Agreement shall be construed to be or shall be admissible in any proceeding as evidence of or an admission by Resources
of any violation of its policies, procedures, state or federal laws or regulations. This Agreement may be introduced, however,
in any proceeding to enforce the Agreement. Such introduction shall be pursuant to an order protecting its confidentiality.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

 

6.                 
Release: Except for those obligations created by or arising out of this Agreement, Employee, on behalf of
[himself/herself], [his/her] descendants, dependents, heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, and successors,
and each of them, hereby acknowledges full and complete satisfaction of and releases and discharges and covenants not to sue Resources,
its divisions, affiliated corporations, past and present, and each of them, as well as its and their directors, officers, managers,
shareholders, representatives, assignees, successors, agents and employees, past and present, and each of them (individually and

causes of action and liabilities of whatever kind or nature in law, equity or otherwise, whether now known or unknown, suspected

without limitation, any Claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans
with Disabilities Act, the ____________________ [State] antidiscrimination laws, or any other federal, state or local law,
regulation or ordinance.

 

7.                 
Bar to Claims: It is a further condition of the consideration hereof and is the intention of both parties
in executing this instrument that the same shall be effective as a bar as to each and every claim, demand and cause of action hereinabove
specified and, in furtherance of this intention, Employee hereby expressly consents that this Agreement shall be given full force
and effect according to each and all of its express terms and conditions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected claims,
demands and causes of actions, if any, as well as those relating to any other claims, demands and causes of actions hereinabove
specified. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be interpreted to prevent any governmental agency from pursuing any matter
which it deems appropriate or to prevent Employee from filing a charge or administrative complaint with any governmental administrative
agency; provided, however, that any and all remedies available on behalf of Employee are covered by the releases in this Agreement.

 

8.

to or different from those which [he/she] now knows or believes to exist with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement
and which, if known or suspected at the time of executing this Agreement, may have materially affected the terms of this Agreement.
Nevertheless, Employee hereby waives any right, claim or cause of action that might arise as a result of such different or additional
claims or facts. Employee acknowledges that [he/she] understands the significance and consequence of such release and such
specific waiver.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

 

[OR, If California Employee]

 

Unknown Claims: It is the intention of Employee
in executing this instrument that the same shall be effective as a bar to each and every claim, demand and cause of action hereinabove
specified. In furtherance of this intention, Employee hereby expressly waives any and all rights and benefits conferred upon [him/her]

and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those related to unknown and unsuspected claims,
demands and causes of action, if any, as well as those relating to any other claims, demands and causes of action hereinabove specified.
SECTION 1542 provides:

 

 

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH
THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM
OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

 

Employee acknowledges that [he/she] may hereafter discover
claims or facts in addition to or different from those which Employee now knows or believes to exist with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement and which, if known or suspected at the time of executing this Agreement, may have materially affected
this settlement. Nevertheless, Employee hereby waives any right, claim or cause of action that might arise as a result of such
different or additional claims or facts. Employee acknowledges that [he/she] understands the significance and consequence
of such release and such specific waiver of SECTION 1542.

 

 

9.

and agrees that:

 

 

		a.	In return for this Agreement [he/she] will receive compensation beyond that which [he/she] already was entitled
to receive before entering into this Agreement;

		b.	[He/She] is hereby advised in writing by this Agreement to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement;

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

 

		c.	[He/She] was given a copy of this Agreement on ___________, 20__, and informed that [he/she] had 21 days within
which to consider the Agreement; however, Employee may waive the 21-day period; and

 

		d.	[He/She] was informed that [he/she] has seven (7) days following the date of execution of the Agreement in which
to revoke the Agreement.

 

 

10.             
Confidentiality: The parties agree to keep the terms and conditions of this Agreement confidential. Employee
agrees that [he/she] will not disclose the terms of this Agreement to any individual, including, but not limited to, any
current or former employee of Resources, provided however, that Employee may disclose the terms of the Agreement to [his/her]
personal financial or tax advisors who have a legitimate need to know and who shall also agree to be bound by this confidentiality
provision. Resources agrees that it will not disclose the terms of this Agreement to any individual, except for Resource’s
executive officers, legal or tax advisors, or other Resources personnel who have a legitimate need to know in order to execute
this Agreement, all of whom shall also agree to be bound by this confidentiality provision. The parties agree that this confidentiality
provision is a material term of the Agreement and, if breached, damages would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, either party
found in breach of this provision shall pay to the non-breaching party liquidated damages in the amount of $5,000.00 per occurrence,
plus reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred to enforce this provision.

 

11.

or written comments or statements concerning the other, [his/her] or its business, reputation, employees, or past or present
directors or affiliates or subsidiaries. The parties agree that this non-disparagement clause is a material term of the Agreement
and, if breached, damages would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, either party found in breach of this provision shall pay
to the non-breaching party liquidated damages in the amount of $25,000.00 per occurrence, plus reasonable attorneys’ fees
incurred to enforce this provision.

 

 

12.             
Severability: If any provision of this Agreement or its application is held invalid, the invalidity shall
not affect other provisions or applications of the Agreement which can be given effect without the invalid provisions or application
and, therefore, the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable.

 

13.             
 Confidentiality, Employee Inventions and Non-Solicitation Agreement: In accordance with the paragraph below,
the provisions of the Confidentiality, Employee Inventions and Non-Solicitation Agreement signed by Employee on ________,
200_, and annexed hereto as Exhibit A, shall remain in full force and effect. The parties agree that this is a material term of
this Agreement and, if breached, damages would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, if Employee is found in breach of this provision,
[he/she] shall pay to Resources liquidated damages in the amount of $25,000.00 per occurrence, plus reasonable attorneys’
fees incurred to enforce this provision.

noted herein. This Agreement may be modified only by a writing signed by the parties.

 

 

15.             
No Assignment: Employee warrants and represents that [he/she] has not heretofore assigned or transferred
to any person not a party to this Agreement any released matter or any part or portion thereof and Employee shall defend, indemnify
and hold harmless Resources from and against any claim based on or in connection with or arising out of any such assignment or
transfer made, purported or claimed.

 

16.

in accordance with the applicable state statutory scheme. In the event either party institutes arbitration under this Agreement,
the party prevailing in any such dispute shall be entitled, in addition to all other relief, to reasonable attorneys’ fees
relating to such arbitration. The nonprevailing party shall be responsible for all costs of the arbitration, including but not
limited to, the arbitration fees, and court reporter fees.

 

17.Telecopied Signatures: In order to expedite
the execution of this Agreement, telecopied signatures may be used in place of original signatures on this Agreement or any document

accepted by them.
