                     (the “Participant”). 
 Under the Company’s 200[5][6] Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the
“Board”), to which Committee authority has been delegated by the Board in accordance with Section 3(b) of the Plan, has authorized the grant of the award evidenced by this Agreement (the “Award”) pursuant to

 “Fair Market Value” shall mean the fair market value of a share of Common Stock, determined as follows:

 (a) If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market or another nationally
recognized trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the closing price per share of Common Stock thereon on (i) in the case of the Grant Date, the Grant Date, and (ii) in
the case of the Exercise Date, the trading day immediately preceding the Exercise Date (provided that if no such price is reported on such day, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined pursuant to clause (b),
below). 
 (b) If the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market or another

Date or (iii) a combination of cash or such shares of Common Stock, in each case at the sole discretion of the Committee, provided that, in no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant in respect of
any payment pursuant to an exercise of this Award exceed the number of shares of Common Stock then available for issuance under the Plan. 
 4. Conditions Applicable to Award. 
 (a) Continuous Relationship with the Company Required. Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 4, this Award may not be exercised unless the Participant, at the time he or she exercises this Award, is, and has been at all times since the Grant Date, an employee or officer of, or consultant or advisor to, the
Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company as defined in Section 424(e) or (f) of the Code (an “Eligible Participant”). 
 (b) Termination of Relationship with the Company. If the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Participant for any reason, then, except as provided in paragraphs (c) and (d) below, the right to exercise this Award shall

of such cessation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant, prior to the Final Exercise Date, violates the non-competition or confidentiality
provisions of any employment contract, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement or other agreement between the Participant and the Company, the right to exercise this Award shall terminate immediately upon such violation. 
 (c) Exercise Period Upon Death or Disability. If the Participant dies or becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the
Code) prior to the Final Exercise Date while he or she is an Eligible Participant and the Company has not terminated such relationship for “cause” as specified in paragraph (d) below, this Award shall be exercisable, within the period
of one year following the date of death or disability of the Participant, by the Participant (or in the case of death by an authorized transferee), provided that this Award shall be exercisable only to the extent that this Award was

Participant of any provision of any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the Participant and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. The
Participant shall be considered to have been discharged for “Cause” if the Company determines, within 30 days after the Participant’s resignation, that discharge for cause was warranted. 
 5. Tax Withholding. Any payment, whether in cash or in shares of Common Stock, pursuant to any exercise of this Award, will be net of, any
federal, state or local withholding taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of this Award. If all or any portion of any payment is made in shares of Common Stock, the Company may elect to withhold from such payment shares of Common Stock
having a Fair Market Value equal to such taxes required to be withheld, or may, as a condition to making any such payment, require the Participant to pays to the Company, or makes provision satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any such taxes.

 6. No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant the right to
continue as an employee of, or consultant or advisor to, the Company.

or transferable by the Participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, sell or otherwise dispose of this Award, or of any

 5. Payments to Employee; Amendment of Options 
 In consideration for the release of claims and all other obligations undertaken herein by Employee, the Company agrees with Employee that as of the
Termination Date (provided that the Release to be delivered on the date thereof has not been revoked): 
 (a) Company will pay to Employee the
Initial Amount by check. 
 (b) During the period commencing as of the first day following the Termination Date and ending as of the
Severance & Benefit End Date, and subject to Employee’s continuing compliance with the terms of this Agreement: 
 (i) Company
will pay to Employee the Severance Amount in semi-monthly installments consistent with the Company’s regular payroll schedule and practices until said amount is paid in full. Said payments shall not be affected by Employee’s commencement
of employment or consultancy with a new employer. 
 (ii) Company will continue to pay
the premiums of, and permit Employee to participate in, the medical, dental and life insurance plans as offered by the Company from time to time to its employees for a period of one year following the Termination Date, provided that said payments
and participation shall cease on the 60th day following Employee’s commencement of full-time employment with a new employer, and further provided,
that Employee shall be required to contribute toward premiums (via Company’s withholding from payments of the Severance Amount) and make co-payments to the same extent that active employees are required to contribute or pay. Commencing as of
the expiration of the benefit provided by this subsection, Employee shall have rights afforded under COBRA. 
 (c) Company shall be
deemed to transfer title to Employee to the laptop computer currently in his possession for no further consideration, provided that on or before the Termination Date Employee shall deliver the computer to the Company’s information-technologies
personnel for removal of all Company data. 
 (d) Effective as of the Termination Date, each of the Options is hereby amended as follows:

 (i) Provisions in the applicable option agreement that would require Employee to exercise the Option within one year of the date of
termination of employment shall be deemed to be amended to allow exercise within twenty-four (24) months of the Termination Date. 
 (ii) All Unvested Options shall continue to vest during the extended exercise-period set forth above (but not thereafter) as though no termination of employment had occurred, according to the applicable terms of the Options. In no event
shall the number of Unvested Options that continue to vest exceed the number set forth in Exhibit A under the tabular column entitled “Unvested Options Subject to Incremental Vesting”. 
 (iii) If Options are exercised by Employee, they shall be exercised only on a net-share basis in accordance with the procedures set forth in Exhibit C.

 (iv) Employee’s rights as amended by this subsection (d) shall inure to the benefit of Employee’s legal representative in
the event of Employee’s death or legal incapacity (but in no event shall the legal representative or any other party have any greater rights than those extended to Employee as provided herein). 
 (v) Employee acknowledges and agrees that, as a result of these changes, certain of the Options will no longer qualify as “incentive stock
options” within the meaning of the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Employee agrees to comply with applicable provisions of the Options relating to notice to the Company of
exercise upon any exercise of such options regardless of whether the disposition of the shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise occurs within the time periods set forth therein. 
  

 7 

 (vi) Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Options shall terminate immediately upon any material
breach by him of this Agreement, provided that the occurrence of a material breach shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with the terms of Paragraph 6(b). Until said determination is made, the Company agrees to deposit any funds due to
the Employee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in escrow with the arbitrator. Further, pending said determination Employee will be allowed to exercise Options in accordance with Exhibit C provided that any shares realized from the transaction
shall be placed in escrow with the arbitrator, net of shares required to fulfill any withholding-tax obligation arising from such an exercise. 
 (e) The Initial Amount is for anticipated expenses associated with, and in full and complete satisfaction of any obligation of the Company for, all costs incurred by Employee related to Employee’s employment with and exit from the
Company. Said expenses include (without limitation) legal fees, costs of travel, job-search assistance, professional fees, association dues, and phone- and other connection-charges. 
 (f) All payments to be made to Employee hereunder, including the issuance of shares upon exercise of the Options, shall be made net of all taxes required
by law to be withheld by the Company. 
 6. Choice of Law; Disputes 
 (a) This document is deemed to have been delivered within the State of New York, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be construed
and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict of law rules. 
 (b) Any
dispute arising hereunder shall be resolved by binding arbitration in White Plains, New York, under the auspices of American Arbitration Association. 
 7. Partial Invalidity 
 Should any provision of this Agreement be declared or be determined by any court to
be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining parts, terms and provisions shall not be in any way affected or impaired thereby, and said invalid, illegal or unenforceable part, term or provision shall be modified so that the
unenforceable term or section is enforceable to the greatest extent possible and if that is not possible, shall be deemed not to be part of this Agreement. 
 8. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has been advised by the Company, and is hereby advised, that: 
 a. Various State and Federal laws prohibit employment discrimination on the basis of age, sex, race, color, national origin, religion, disability or veteran status. 
 b. If Employee believes that his decision to enter into this Agreement was coerced or discriminatory, then Employee should not enter into this Agreement.

 c. Employee has been given a reasonable opportunity to consider this Agreement before executing it. 
  

 8

consult with an attorney of his choice prior to executing this Agreement.

receipt of this agreement within which to consider it. 
 f. Employee may, within seven (7) days following the date Employee executes
this Agreement and returns it to the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, cancel and terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of his intent to terminate to the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and this
Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the seven-day period has expired. 
 9. Knowing and Voluntary Release 

Employee represents and certifies that Employee has carefully read and fully understands all of the provisions and effects of this Agreement, that
Employee has been advised by counsel of his own choice, that Employee is knowingly and voluntarily entering into this Agreement with the intention of being bound hereby and that neither the Company, any other Releasee nor their agents,
representatives or attorneys, have made any representations concerning the terms or effects of this Agreement other than those contained herein. 
 10. Covenants 
 (a) Employee acknowledges that his relationship with the Company was one of high trust and confidence and that in
the course of his service to the Company Employee has had access to and contact with Proprietary Information. Employee covenants and agrees that Employee will not at any time disclose to others, or use for Employee’s benefit or the benefit of
others, any Proprietary Information. Employee’s obligations under this Section shall not apply to any information that (i) is or becomes known to the general public under circumstances involving no breach by Employee of the terms of this
Section, (ii) is generally disclosed to third parties by the Company without restriction on such third parties, (iii) is approved for release by written authorization of the board of directors of the Company, (iv) is required to be

 (b) Employee covenants and
agrees to keep all communications with the Company regarding the terms of this Agreement and any and all events, allegations, actions and circumstances relating to his separation from the Company in strictest confidence, provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not prohibit Employee from informing any subsequent employer of post-employment restrictions under this Agreement or from disclosing the terms hereof to his spouse, attorneys, tax or financial advisors and/or accountants as may be
reasonably required, or from disclosing the terms hereof as may be required by subpoena or other legal obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company is obligated to make this Agreement public by means
of a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and to file this Agreement as an exhibit to such report or to other periodic reports filed with the SEC. 
 (c) Employee covenants and agrees that during the period commencing on the Termination Date and ending as of the Severance & Benefit End Date
Employee shall not, without the Company’s written consent, (i) establish, acquire more than 10% of, take employment with, or take a consultancy with a Competing Business, or (ii) solicit then-active employees of the Company or its
subsidiaries to exit the Company or one of its subsidiaries and take employment or a consultancy with a Competing Business. This provision shall not be construed to prohibit a then-active employee from independently responding to general
advertisements or postings at or on behalf of the Competing Business. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the time, scope, geographic limitations, and other terms of this subsection are reasonable under the circumstances contemplated by this
Agreement. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the terms contained in this subsection are unenforceable, they shall be construed to apply only to the extent that they are enforceable, all as determined by such a court.

  

 9 

 (d) Employee covenants and agrees to cooperate with the Company through the Severance & Benefit
End Date by making himself available (i) to testify on the Company’s behalf in any legal proceeding and to assist the Company by providing information and meeting with the Company’s counsel as reasonably requested and (2) to
assist the Company and its personnel with matters relating to the Company’s financial and accounting functions, so long as neither of the foregoing materially interferes with his then-current employment, consulting, job search, or
vacation-commitments. The Company agrees to reimburse Employee for all expenses approved in writing in advance that are incurred in connection with such testimony or other assistance. Employee agrees to make himself reasonably available to provide
testimony or other assistance after the Severance & Benefit End Date (subject to constraints of then-current employment, consultancy, job-search, or vacation-commitments), and the Company agrees to reimburse Employee at the hourly rate of
$175 per hour for such testimony or assistance.

 EXHIBIT C 
 Net Exercise Provisions 
 In lieu of exercising an Option, Employee shall surrender the Option for cancellation and need not provide cash or any
other consideration to the Company, whereupon the number of Shares issued to the Employee shall be determined according to the following formula: 
 X =
Y*(A-B) - C 
 A 
 Where: X = the number of Shares to be issued
upon exercise; 
 Y = the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised (which shall include both the number of Shares issued to the Employee and
the number of Shares subject to the portion of the Option being cancelled in payment of the exercise price); 
 A = the Fair Market Value (as defined below)
of one share of Common Stock; 
 B = the exercise price per Share then in effect; and 
 C = the number of Shares required to satisfy federal and state income-tax withholding obligations of the Company. 
 The
“Fair Market Value” per share of Common Stock shall be the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange (or such other national securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded) on the date of
exercise. 
 If Employee does not surrender an Option within the period contemplated by the Agreement shall be deemed to be surrendered for cancellation and
may be cancelled by the Company without further obligation to Employee.
