hundred forty (240) days in any period of twelve (12) consecutive months during the Term. In the event the Company seeks to terminate Executive’s employment due to Disability, the Company shall give notice to Executive of the
termination of Executive’s employment for Disability. Executive agrees to submit to such medical examinations as may be necessary to determine whether a Disability exists, pursuant to such reasonable requests made by the Company from time to
time. Any determination as to the existence of a Disability shall be made by a physician approved by the Board of Directors and by Executive (or, if Executive is unable to give such approval, by Executive’s representative), which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld by the Board of Directors or Executive. 
 (c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean
the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) The reasonable determination of the Board of Directors that Executive has willfully
or continually failed to substantially perform his duties with the Company. 

  
 2 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cause shall only exist under this Section 8(c)(i) if: 

(A) the Board of Directors has given Executive written notice that it has reasonably determined Executive has willfully or continually failed
to substantially perform his duties with the Company, which notice shall identify with specificity the duties the Board of Directors has reasonably determined Executive to have willfully or continually failed to substantially perform; and 

(B) at the end of the period ending sixty (60) days from the date on which the notice in Section 8(c)(i)(A) is given by the Board
of Directors to Executive, the Board of Directors reasonably determines that Executive has failed to cure the willful or continual failure to substantially perform his duties identified with specificity in the written notice described in
Section 8(c)(i)(A); 
 (ii) Executive’s conviction of, guilty plea to, or entry of a nolo contendere plea to a felony. 

(iii) The reasonable determination of the Board of Directors that Executive has engaged in willful or reckless misconduct that has caused or
is reasonably likely to cause demonstrable and material financial injury to the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cause shall only
exist under this Section 8(c)(iii) if: 
 (A) the Board of Directors has given Executive written notice that the Board of Directors
has reasonably determined that Executive has committed willful or reckless misconduct which has caused or is reasonably likely to cause demonstrable and material financial injury to the Company, which notice shall identify with specificity the
willful or reckless misconduct the Board of Directors has reasonably determined Executive to have committed; and 
 (B) at the end of the
period ending sixty (60) days after the date on which the notice described in Section 8(c)(iii)(A) is given by the Board of Directors to Executive, the Board of Directors reasonably determines that Executive has failed to cure the willful
or reckless misconduct identified with specificity in the notice described in Section 8(c)(iii)(A); or 
 (iv) Executive’s
willful and material breach of Sections 11, 12, or 13 of this Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cause shall only exist under

 (A) the Board of Directors has given written notice to Executive of its intent to terminate Executive for
Executive’s willful and material breach of Section 11, 12, or 13 of this Agreement; and 
 (B) Executive has failed to cure the
adverse effects of Executive’s willful and material breach of Section 11, 12, or 13 of this Agreement within the time period afforded Executive in the Board of Directors’ notice described in Section 8(c)(iv)(A), which time period
shall be no less than sixty (60) days after the Company provides Executive with notice of the Board of Directors’ intent to terminate Executive for Cause. 

For purposes of Sections 8(c)(i), (iii) and (iv), an act on Executive’s part shall not be deemed “willful,”
“reckless,” or “continual” if done by Executive in good faith and with reasonable belief that the act was in the best interest of the Company. 

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without the
Executive’s consent: 
 (i) a material diminution in Executive’s base compensation; 

  
 3 

 (ii) a material diminution in Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities,
including a requirement that Executive report to a corporate officer or employee instead of reporting directly to the Board of Directors; 

(iii) a material change in the geographic location at which Executive must perform his duties; or 

(iv) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of its obligations to Executive under this
Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall only exist if Executive shall have provided the Company with ninety
(90) days written notice of the initial occurrence of any of the foregoing events or conditions, and the Company fails to eliminate the conditions constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such
event or condition from Executive. Executive’s termination by reason of resignation from employment with the Company for Good Reason shall be treated as involuntary. Executive’s resignation from employment with the Company for Good Reason
must occur within two (2) years following the initial existence of the act or failure to act constituting Good Reason. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the changes in his title, role and compensation as a result of his transition from
Chief Executive Officer to Executive Chairman shall not constitute Good Reason for purposes of this Agreement. 
 9. Compensation in
Event of Termination. . The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law, and that Executive’s employment with the Company may be terminated by
either party at any time for any or no reason, with or without notice. If Executive’s employment terminates for any reason, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages, awards or compensation other than as provided in
this Agreement. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated immediately on the death of Executive. Upon termination of the Term for any reason, the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive except to pay the
amounts set forth in this Section 9. 
 (a) In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Sections 8(a)(i), (ii),
(iii) (iv), or (vii) during or at the expiration of the Term, or in the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 8(a)(v) or (vi) during the Term but prior to a “Change in Control” (as such
term is defined in the Company’s 2001 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended), Executive or his estate, conservator or designated beneficiary, as the case may be, shall be entitled to payment of any earned but unpaid Annual Salary through the date of
termination, as well as any accrued vested benefits and unreimbursed business expenses to which Executive is entitled. Following any such termination, neither Executive nor his estate, conservator or designated beneficiary shall be entitled to
receive any other payment provided for hereunder with respect to any period after such termination, except as Executive may otherwise be entitled pursuant to any employee benefit plan. 

(b) In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 8(a)(v) or (vi) during the Term and such termination
occurs following a Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled to receive, as his sole and exclusive remedy, (x) payment of any earned but unpaid Annual Salary through the date of termination, as well as any accrued vested benefits and
unreimbursed business expenses to which Executive is entitled and (y) a lump sum payment equal to $825,000, which amount shall be paid in exchange for a standard release of claims. Executive will not receive the severance in this
Section 9(b) if he does not sign the release of claims within fifty (50) days following his date of termination, or he revokes the release. The severance will be paid on the eighth
(8th) day following the effective date of the release. 
 (c) This Agreement is
not intended to provide for any deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and, accordingly, the severance payments payable under Section 9(b)(y) shall be paid
no later than the later of: (i) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following Executive’s first taxable year in which such severance benefit is no longer subject to a
substantial risk of forfeiture, and (ii) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following the first taxable year of the Company in which such severance benefit is no longer subject
to a substantial risk of forfeiture, as determined in accordance with Code Section 409A and any Treasury Regulations and other guidance issued thereunder. To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with Code
Section 409A and Department of 

  
 4 

 
Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder. To the extent that any provision in this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code,
the provision shall be read in such a manner that no payments payable under this Agreement shall be subject to an “additional tax” as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. Each series of installment payments made under this
Agreement is hereby designated as a series of “separate payments” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to Executive’s “termination of employment” shall mean
Executive’s “separation from service” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)). 
 (d) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Code Section 409A, as determined by the Company in accordance
with Code Section 409A, to the extent that the payments or benefits under this Agreement are subject to Code Section 409A and the delayed payment or distribution of all or any portion of such amounts to which Executive is entitled under
this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then such portion shall be paid or distributed to Executive during the thirty (30) day period commencing on the earlier of
(x) the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, (y) the date of Executive’s death, or (z) the earliest date as is permitted under Code Section 409A. 

10. Representations. 

(a) The Company represents and warrants that this Agreement has been authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and is a
valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. The Company acknowledges and agrees that Executive is serving as an executive officer and/or director of Dictum Health, Inc. and Ejent Group,
LLC, in addition to his position with the Company, and that such other business activities are permissible under the terms of this Agreement. 

(b) The Executive represents and warrants that he is not a party to any agreement or instrument which would prevent him from entering into or
performing his duties in any way under this Agreement. 
 11. Disclosure and Assignment of Inventions. 

(a) Executive has provided on Exhibit A, attached hereto, a list describing all inventions, original works of authorship,
developments, improvements, and trade secrets which were made by Executive prior to employment with the Company, which belong to Executive alone or jointly with others, which relate to the Company’s proposed business, products or research and
development, and which are not assigned to the Company; if “none” is stated on Exhibit A, Executive therefore represents that there are no such inventions, works of authorship, developments, improvements or trade secrets. 

(b) Executive agrees to promptly make full written disclosure to the Company, will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of Company,
and hereby assigns to Company all right, title, and interest in and to any and all inventions (and patent rights with respect thereto), original works of authorship (including all copyrights with respect thereto), developments, improvements or trade
secrets which Executive may solely or jointly conceive or develop or reduce to practice, or cause to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice during the Term. 

(c) Executive understands that the provisions of this Agreement requiring assignment to the Company do not apply to any invention made by an
employee of the Company which qualifies fully under the provisions of Section 2870 of the California Labor Code which provides: 

“(a) Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights
in an invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those
inventions that either: (1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the employer; or (2) Result from any
work performed by the employee for the employer. (b) To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being required to be assigned under Subdivision (a), the
provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.” 

  
 5 

 Executive agrees to advise the Company promptly in writing of any inventions that he believes meet the criteria
of Section 2870 of the California Labor Code, and will also provide at that time to the Company in writing all evidence necessary to substantiate that belief. The Company will keep in confidence and will not disclose to third parties without
Executive’s consent any confidential information disclosed in writing to the Company relating to inventions that qualify fully under the provisions of Section 2870 of the California Labor Code. 

12. Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges that in his employment hereunder he will occupy a position of trust and confidence. The
Executive covenants and agrees that he will not at any time during and after the end of the Term, directly or indirectly, use for his own account, or disclose to any person, firm or corporation, other than authorized officers, directors and
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries, Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means information about the Company and its
subsidiaries or affiliates of any kind, nature or description, including but not limited to, any proprietary knowledge, trade secrets, data, formulae, information and client and customer lists and all papers, resumes, and records (including computer
records) which is disclosed to or otherwise known to the Executive as a direct or indirect consequence of his association with the Company, which information is not generally known to the public or in the businesses in which the Company is engaged
or which information relates to specific investment opportunities within the scope of the Company’s business which were considered by the Executive or the Company during the term of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that such Confidential
Information is specialized, unique in nature and of great value to the Company and its subsidiaries, and that such information gives the Company and its subsidiaries a competitive advantage. Executive agrees to deliver or return to the Company, at
the Company’s request at any time or upon termination or expiration of his employment or as soon thereafter as possible, all documents, computer tapes and disks, records, lists, data, drawings, prints, notes and written information (and all
copies thereof) furnished by the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates or prepared by Executive during the term of his employment by the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. 

13. Nonsolicitation. 

(a) Customers and Suppliers. During the Term and, for a period of nine (9) months beyond the expiration of the Term, Executive
shall not, directly or indirectly, influence or attempt to influence customers or suppliers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to divert their business to any competitor of the Company. 

(b) Employees. Executive recognizes that he will possess confidential information about other employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries and affiliates relating to their education, experience, skills, abilities, compensation and benefits, and inter-personal relationships with customers of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive recognizes that the
information he will possess about these other employees is not generally known, is of substantial value to the Company and its subsidiaries in developing its business and in securing and retaining customers, and will be acquired by him because of
his business position with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive agrees that, during the Term and for a period of nine (9) months beyond the expiration of the Term, he will not, directly or indirectly, induce, solicit or
recruit any employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates for the purpose of being employed by him or by any competitor of the Company on whose behalf he is acting as an agent, representative or employee, and that he will not convey any
such confidential information or trade secrets about other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates to any other person. 

(c) Reasonableness of Relief; Blue Penciling. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements contained herein are
reasonable and valid in geographic and temporal scope and in all other respects and are reasonably necessary to protect the Company. If any court determines that any of the covenants and agreements contained herein, or any part thereof, is
unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

 14. Rights and Remedies upon Breach. In the event Executive breaches, or threatens to
commit a breach of, any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which shall be independent of the others and severally
enforceable, and each of which shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies available to the Company or its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns at law or in equity under this Agreement or otherwise: 

(a) Specific Performance. The right and remedy to have each and every one of the covenants in this Agreement specifically enforced and
the right and remedy to obtain injunctive relief, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of any of the nonsolicitation or other restrictive covenants and agreements contained herein would cause irreparable injury to the Company and its
subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy at law to the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns. 

(b) Accounting. The right and remedy to require Executive to account for and pay over to the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates,
successors or assigns, as the case may be, all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by Executive that result from any transaction or activity constituting a breach of this Agreement. 

(c) Enforceability in all Jurisdictions. Executive intends to and hereby confers jurisdiction to enforce each and every one of the
covenants and agreements contained herein upon the courts of any jurisdiction within the geographic scope of such covenants and agreements. If the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold any such covenant or agreement unenforceable by
reason of the breadth or such scope or otherwise, it is the intention of Executive and the Company that such determination shall not bar or in any way affect the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’, affiliates’, successors’ or
assigns’ right to the relief provided above in the courts of any other jurisdiction within the geographic scope of such covenants and agreements, as to breaches of such covenants and agreements in such other respective jurisdictions, such
covenants and agreements as they relate to each jurisdiction being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants and agreements. 

15. Intentionally omitted. 
 16.
Binding Agreement. This Agreement is a personal contract and the rights and interests of the Executive hereunder may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated by him. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
and be enforceable by the Executive and his personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to him hereunder
had the Executive continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to his devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to his estate. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and shall by its terms automatically be assigned to any successor in interest to the Company in a Change in Control, including but not limited to any entity that acquires substantially all of the assets, capital stock
or operations of the Company. 
 17. Return of Company Property. Executive agrees that following the termination of his employment
for any reason, he shall return all property of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates and any divisions thereof he may have managed which is then in or thereafter comes into his possession, including, but not limited to, documents, contracts,
agreements, plans, photographs, books, notes, electronically stored data and all copies of the foregoing as well as any materials or equipment supplied by the Company to Executive. 

18. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains all the understandings between the parties hereto pertaining to the matters referred to
herein, and supersedes all undertakings and agreements, whether oral or in writing, previously entered into by them with respect thereto, including, without limitation, the Prior Agreement. Executive represents that, in executing this Agreement, he
does not rely and has not relied upon any representation or statement not set forth herein made by the Company with regard to the subject matter, bases or effect of this Agreement or otherwise. 

19. Amendment or Modification, Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is
agreed to in writing, signed by Executive and by a duly authorized officer of the Company. The failure of either party to this Agreement to enforce any of its terms, provisions or covenants shall not be construed as a waiver of the same or of the
right of such party to enforce the same. Waiver by either party hereto of any breach or default by the other party of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other breach or default.

unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remainder of the Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be held to be
excessively broad as to duration, activity or subject, such provisions shall be construed by limiting and reducing them so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent allowed by applicable law.

Governing Law; Venue. This contract shall be governed by the laws of the State of California as they are applied to contracts between California residents to be performed completely within California. The parties irrevocably submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the State of California, Santa Clara County, and the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Branch nearest to Palo Alto, California, in any action to enforce an
arbitration award or any other suit brought hereunder. Each party hereby agrees that any such court shall have in personam jurisdiction over it and consents to service of process in any manner authorized by California law. 

25. Binding Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 14(a) of this Agreement, the parties agree that any disputes arising out of
or related to this Agreement or Executive’s employment with the Company shall be settled by final and binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be in Palo Alto, California and administered by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation
Services/Endispute (“JAMS”) in accordance with its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures and subject to its Employment Arbitration Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness.1 A
single arbitrator shall be selected according to the corresponding JAMS arbitration rules within thirty (30) days of submission of the dispute to the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall conduct the arbitration in accordance with the California
Evidence Code. Except as expressly provided above, no discovery of any kind shall be taken by either party without the written consent of the other party, provided, however, that any party may seek the arbitrator’s permission to take any
deposition which is necessary to preserve the testimony of a witness who either is, or may become, outside the subpoena power of the arbitrator or otherwise unavailable to testify at the arbitration.

The arbitrator shall have the power to enter any award that could be entered by a Judge of the Superior Court of the State of California sitting without a jury, and only such power, except that
the arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages, treble damages, or any other damages which are not compensatory, even if permitted under the laws of the State of California or any other applicable law. The arbitration award may be
enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the parties and the subject matter of the arbitration. Arbitration may be compelled pursuant to the California Arbitration Act (Code of Civil Procedure §§ 1280 et seq.). Subject to
Section 26 below, each party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys, the expenses of its witnesses and all other expenses connected with presenting its case. Other costs of the arbitration, including the cost of any record or transcripts of
the arbitration, administrative fees, the fee of the arbitrator, and all other fees and costs, shall be borne by the Company. This Section 25 is intended to be the exclusive method for resolving any and all claims by the parties against each
other for payment of damages under this Agreement or relating to Executive’s employment; provided, however, that Executive shall retain the right to file administrative charges with or seek relief through any government agency of competent
jurisdiction, and to participate in any government investigation, including but not limited to (a) claims for workers’ compensation, state disability insurance or unemployment insurance; (b) claims for unpaid wages or waiting time
penalties brought before the California Division of Labor Standards Enforcement; provided, however, that any appeal from an award or from denial of an award of wages and/or waiting time penalties shall be arbitrated pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement; and (c) claims for administrative relief from the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and/or the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (or any similar agency in any applicable jurisdiction other than
California); provided, further, that Executive shall not be entitled to obtain any monetary relief through such agencies other than workers’ compensation benefits or unemployment insurance benefits. This Agreement shall not limit either
party’s right to obtain any provisional remedy, including, without limitation, injunctive or similar relief, from any court of competent jurisdiction as may be necessary to protect their rights and interests pending the outcome of arbitration,
in any court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 1281.8 or any similar statute of an applicable jurisdiction. Seeking any such relief shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s right to compel
arbitration. Both Executive and the Company expressly waive their right to a jury trial. 
 26. Attorney Fees. In the event that any
dispute between the Company and Executive should result in arbitration, the arbitrator may award to one or more of the Prevailing Persons (as defined below) such reasonable attorney fees, costs and expenses, as determined by the arbitrator. Any
judgment or order enforcing such arbitration may, in the discretion of the court entering such judgment or order contain, a specific provision providing for the recovery of attorney fees and costs incurred in enforcing such judgment or order and an
award of prejudgment interest from the date of the breach at the maximum rate of interest allowed by law. For the purposes of this Section 26: 

(a) “attorney fees” shall include, without limitation, attorney fees incurred in the following: 

(i) arbitration; 
 (ii)
post-arbitration order or judgment motions; 
 (iii) contempt proceedings; 

(iv) garnishment, levy, and debtor and third party examinations; 

(v) discovery; and 
 (vi)
bankruptcy litigation; 
 (b) “Prevailing Person” shall mean any person who is determined by the arbitrator in the proceeding to
have prevailed or who prevails by dismissal, default or otherwise.

 Exhibit 10.2 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of July 17, 2014 (the “Effective
Date”), by and between Zhone Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and James Norrod (“Executive”). 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to engage Executive as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Executive desires to be so
engaged by the Company in such position, on the terms and conditions set forth and described herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of
the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Employment. 

(a) Position and Duties. The Company hereby agrees to employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to serve, subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, as an employee of the Company in the position of President and Chief Executive Officer. Executive shall perform all services and acts necessary to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of his position and shall render
such services on the terms set forth herein and shall report to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”). In addition, Executive shall have such other executive and managerial powers and duties with respect
to the Company as may reasonably be assigned to him by the Board of Directors, to the extent consistent with his positions and status as set forth above. During the Term (as defined below), the Company shall cause Executive to be nominated to stand
for election to the Board of Directors at any meeting of stockholders of the Company during which any such election is held and Executive’s term as a director will expire if he is not reelected; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be obligated to cause such nomination if any of the events constituting Cause (as defined below) have occurred and not been cured. Executive hereby consents to serve as an officer and/or director of the Company or any subsidiary or
affiliate thereof without any additional salary or compensation, if so requested by the Board of Directors. 
 (b) Time Commitment.
Executive agrees to devote substantially all of his business time, attention and energies to the performance of the duties assigned hereunder, and to perform such duties diligently, faithfully and to the best of his abilities. Subject to the terms
of Section 12 below, this shall not preclude Executive from devoting time to personal and family investments or serving on community and civic boards, or participating in industry associations, provided such activities do not interfere with his
duties to the Company, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. Executive agrees that he will not join any additional boards, other than community and civic boards (which do not interfere with his duties to the Company), without the
prior approval of the Board of Directors. Current Board positions are (all private companies) TerraLux, an LED company, Ioxus, an ultracapacitor company, and LiquidPiston, an internal combustion engine company. Executive shall be subject to and
comply with the policies and procedures generally applicable to officers of the Company to the extent the same are not inconsistent with any term of this Agreement. 

2. Term. The term of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement is for the two-year period (the “Term”)
commencing on the Effective Date and terminating on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Expiration Date”), or upon the date of earlier termination of
employment pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement. The Term may be extended upon the mutual agreement of Executive and the Board of Directors. 

3. Place of Performance. The Executive shall perform his duties and conduct his business at the principal executive offices of the
Company, except for required travel on the Company’s business. From time to time, the Executive may work from his New Hampshire home office while on business on the East Coast. 

4. Compensation. 
 (a)
Salary. The Company shall pay to Executive a base salary of $400,000 per year (the “Annual Salary”). Executive’s Annual Salary shall be reviewed on at least an annual basis by the Board of Directors or its Compensation
Committee, and shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. 

  
 1 

 (b) Bonus. In addition to Executive’s Annual Salary, Executive shall be eligible to
participate in a performance-based annual bonus program beginning in calendar year 2014, to be earned and paid quarterly in equal installments. Executive’s target annual bonus at full accomplishment of the Company’s goals will be equal to
his Annual Salary. Executive’s actual bonus will be based upon the overall results of the Company compared to the annual budget approved by the Board of Directors for the following criteria: revenues; pre-tax income from operations (excluding
any non-recurring and/or extraordinary charges or credits); free cash flow (excluding any equity and/or debt changes); and other non-financial objectives determined by the Board of Directors. The annual bonus plan and the final payout will be
approved by the Board of Directors or its Compensation Committee and is subject to change. 
 (c) Housing Allowance. During the
Term, the Company shall pay for or reimburse Executive in accordance with the Company’s written expense reimbursement policies and procedures for housing expenses in the San Francisco Bay Area, up to a maximum of $4,000 per month. In addition,
the Company shall pay for or reimburse Executive in accordance with the Company’s written expense reimbursement policies and procedures for up to two (2) round-trip airline tickets per month for Executive to travel home from the San
Francisco Bay Area to visit his family. 
 (d) Equity Award. On July 21, 2014, Executive will be granted stock options to
purchase 1,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (the “Stock Options”). The Stock Options
will vest over a four year vesting schedule as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) of the Stock Options vesting on the first (1st) anniversary of Executive’s commencement of
employment, and the remainder vesting in thirty-six (36) monthly installments thereafter, subject to Executive’s continued employment through each such vesting date. In addition, in the event Executive’s employment is terminated
pursuant to Section 8(a)(v) or (vi) following a “Change in Control” (as such term is defined in the Company’s 2001 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended), the vesting and exercisability of all of the Stock Options shall
accelerate on the date of such termination. The Stock Options shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the equity plan and/or any stock option agreement(s) pursuant to which they are granted. 

5. Business Expenses. During the Term, the Company will reimburse Executive for all ordinary and necessary business expenses incurred
by him in connection with his employment upon timely submission by the Executive of receipts and other documentation in conformance with the Company’s normal procedures. This includes monthly cell phone expenses. 

6. Vacation, Holidays and Sick Leave. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation, paid holidays and sick leave in
accordance with the Company’s standard policies for its officers. 
 7. Benefits. During the Term, Executive shall be eligible
to participate fully in all health benefits, insurance programs, pension and retirement plans and other employee benefit and compensation arrangements (collectively, the “Employee Benefits”) available to officers of the Company
generally. 
 8. Termination of Employment. 

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, employment of Executive hereunder shall terminate on the first to occur
of the following dates: 
 (i) the date of Executive’s death or adjudicated incompetency; 

(ii) the date on which Executive shall have experienced a Disability (as defined below), and the Company terminates Executive’s
employment on account of Disability; 
 (iii) the date on which Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause (as
defined below); 
 (iv) expiration of the Term; 

  
 2 

 (v) the date on which Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason
other than the reasons set forth in (i) through (iv) above; 
 (vi) the date on which Executive resigns his employment for Good
Reason (as defined below); or 
 (vii) the date on which Executive resigns his employment for a reason other than Good Reason. 

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean an illness, injury or other incapacitating condition as a result
of which Executive is substantially unable to perform the services required to be performed under this Agreement for (i) one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days during the Term; or (ii) a period or periods aggregating more than two
hundred forty (240) days in any period of twelve (12) consecutive months during the Term. In the event the Company seeks to terminate Executive’s employment due to Disability, the Company shall give notice to Executive of the
termination of Executive’s employment for Disability. Executive agrees to submit to such medical examinations as may be necessary to determine whether a Disability exists, pursuant to such reasonable requests made by the Company from time to
time. Any determination as to the existence of a Disability shall be made by a physician approved by the Board of Directors and by Executive (or, if Executive is unable to give such approval, by Executive’s representative), which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld by the Board of Directors or Executive. 
 (c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall
mean the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) Executive’s willful or continual failure to substantially perform his
duties with the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate, or any failure to carry out, or comply with, in any material respect any lawful and reasonable directive of the Board of Directors consistent with the terms of this Agreement, which failure
continues for fifteen (15) days following Executive’s receipt of written notice from the Board of Directors stating with specificity the duties the Board of Directors has reasonably determined Executive to have willfully or continually
failed to substantially perform or such failure; 
 (ii) Executive’s conviction of, guilty plea to, or entry of a nolo contendere plea
to a felony or a crime of moral turpitude or commission of an act of fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation against the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate; 

(iii) Executive’s engagement in willful or reckless misconduct that has caused or is reasonably likely to cause demonstrable and
material financial injury to the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate; or 
 (iv) Executive’s willful and material breach of this
Agreement, which breach remains uncured (if capable of being cured) for fifteen (15) days following Executive’s receipt of written notice from the Board of Directors stating with specificity those provisions of this Agreement which
Executive has breached. 
 For purposes of Sections 8(c)(i), (iii) and (iv), an act on Executive’s part shall not be deemed
“willful,” “reckless,” or “continual” if done by Executive in good faith and with reasonable belief that the act was in the best interest of the Company. 

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without the
Executive’s consent: 
 (i) a material diminution in Executive’s base compensation; 

(ii) a material diminution in Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities, including a requirement that Executive report to a
corporate officer or employee instead of reporting directly to the Board of Directors; 

  
 3 

 (iii) a material change in the geographic location at which Executive must perform his
duties; or 
 (iv) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of its obligations to Executive
under this Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall only exist if Executive shall have provided the Company with
ninety (90) days written notice of the initial occurrence of any of the foregoing events or conditions, and the Company fails to eliminate the conditions constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of
such event or condition from Executive. Executive’s termination by reason of resignation from employment with the Company for Good Reason shall be treated as involuntary. Executive’s resignation from employment with the Company for Good
Reason must occur within six (6) months following the initial existence of the act or failure to act constituting Good Reason. 
 9.
Compensation in Event of Termination. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law, and that Executive’s employment with the Company may be
terminated by either party at any time for any or no reason, with or without notice. If Executive’s employment terminates for any reason, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages, awards or compensation other than as
provided in this Agreement. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated immediately on the death of Executive. Upon termination of the Term for any reason, the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive except to
pay the amounts set forth in this Section 9. 
 (a) In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Sections
8(a)(i), (ii), (iii) (iv), or (vii) during or at the expiration of the Term, Executive or his estate, conservator or designated beneficiary, as the case may be, shall be entitled to payment of any earned but unpaid Annual Salary through
the date of termination, as well as any accrued vested benefits and unreimbursed business expenses to which Executive is entitled. Following any such termination, neither Executive nor his estate, conservator or designated beneficiary shall be
entitled to receive any other payment provided for hereunder with respect to any period after such termination, except as Executive may otherwise be entitled pursuant to any employee benefit plan. 

(b) In the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 8(a)(v) or (vi) during the Term, Executive shall be
entitled to receive, as his sole and exclusive remedy, (x) payment of any earned but unpaid Annual Salary through the date of termination, as well as any accrued vested benefits and unreimbursed business expenses to which Executive is entitled
and (y) a lump sum payment equal to Executive’s Annual Salary as in effect immediately prior to the date of termination, which amount shall be paid in exchange for a standard release of claims. Executive will not receive the severance in
this Section 9(b) if he does not sign the release of claims within fifty (50) days following his date of termination, or he revokes the release. The severance will be paid on the eighth
(8th) day following the effective date of the release. 
 (c) This Agreement is
not intended to provide for any deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and, accordingly, the severance payments payable under Section 9(b)(y) shall
be paid no later than the later of: (i) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following Executive’s first taxable year in which such severance benefit is no longer subject to
a substantial risk of forfeiture, and (ii) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third month following the first taxable year of the Company in which such severance benefit is no longer
subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, as determined in accordance with Code Section 409A and any Treasury Regulations and other guidance issued thereunder. To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with
Code Section 409A and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder. To the extent that any provision in this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision
shall be read in such a manner that no payments payable under this Agreement shall be subject to an “additional tax” as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. Each series of installment payments made under this Agreement is
hereby designated as a series of “separate payments” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to Executive’s “termination of employment” shall mean Executive’s
“separation from service” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)). 

  
 4 

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at the time of
Executive’s termination of employment with the Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Code Section 409A, as determined by the Company in accordance with Code Section 409A, to the extent that the payments
or benefits under this Agreement are subject to Code Section 409A and the delayed payment or distribution of all or any portion of such amounts to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited
distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then such portion shall be paid or distributed to Executive during the thirty (30) day period commencing on the earlier of (x) the date that is six (6) months following
Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, (y) the date of Executive’s death, or (z) the earliest date as is permitted under Code Section 409A. 

10. Representations. 

(a) The Company represents and warrants that this Agreement has been authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and is a
valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. 
 (b) The Executive represents
and warrants that he is not a party to any agreement or instrument which would prevent him from entering into or performing his duties in any way under this Agreement. 

11. Confidentiality; Assignment of Inventions. Executive has entered into the Company’s standard Employee Innovations and
Proprietary Rights Assignment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Proprietary Rights Agreement”), which Proprietary Rights Agreement is incorporated herein by reference, and hereby agrees to
comply with the terms and conditions thereof during the Term and thereafter in accordance with its terms. 
 12. Noncompetition;
Nonsolicitation. 
 (a) Noncompetition. Except as may otherwise be approved by the Board of Directors, during the Term,
Executive shall not have any ownership interest (of record or beneficial) in, or have any interest as an employee, salesman, consultant, officer or director in, or otherwise aid or assist in any manner, any firm, corporation, partnership,
proprietorship or other business that engages in any county, city or part thereof in the United States and/or any foreign country in a business which competes directly or indirectly (as determined by the Board of Directors) with the Company’s
business or the business of its subsidiaries and affiliates in such county, city or part thereof, so long as the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, or any successor in interest of the Company to the business and goodwill of the Company or its
subsidiaries or affiliates, remains engaged in such business in such county, city or part thereof or continues to solicit customers or potential customers therein; provided, however, that Executive may own, directly or indirectly,
solely as an investment, securities of any entity which are traded on any national securities exchange if Executive (i) is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group which controls, such entity; or (ii) does not, directly or
indirectly, own one percent (1%) or more of any class of securities of any such entity. 
 (b) Customers and Suppliers.
Executive recognizes that he will possess Proprietary Information (as such term is defined in the Proprietary Rights Agreement) about the customers or suppliers of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive recognizes that the
Proprietary Information he will possess about these customers or suppliers may not be generally known, is of substantial value to the Company and its subsidiaries in developing its business and in securing and retaining customers, and will be
acquired by him because of his business position with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive agrees that, during the Term and for a period of nine (9) months beyond the expiration of the Term, he will not, directly or
indirectly, influence or attempt to influence customers or suppliers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to divert their business to any competitor of the Company, and that he will not convey any such Proprietary Information or
trade secrets about the customers or suppliers of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates to any other person. 
 (b)
Employees. Executive recognizes that he will possess Proprietary Information about other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates relating to their education, experience, skills, abilities, compensation and benefits, and
inter-personal relationships with customers of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive recognizes that the Proprietary Information he will possess about these other 

  
 5 

 
employees is not generally known, is of substantial value to the Company and its subsidiaries in developing its business and in securing and retaining customers, and will be acquired by him
because of his business position with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Executive agrees that, during the Term and for a period of nine (9) months beyond the expiration of the Term, he will not, directly or indirectly, induce,
solicit or recruit any employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates for the purpose of being employed by him or by any competitor of the Company on whose behalf he is acting as an agent, representative or employee, and that he will not
convey any such Proprietary Information or trade secrets about other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates to any other person. 

(c) Reasonableness of Relief; Blue Penciling. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements contained herein are
reasonable and valid in geographic and temporal scope and in all other respects and are reasonably necessary to protect the Company. If any court determines that any of the covenants and agreements contained herein, or any part thereof, is
unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. 
 13. Rights and Remedies upon Breach. In the event Executive breaches, or threatens
to commit a breach of, any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns shall have the following rights and remedies, each of which shall be independent of the others and severally
enforceable, and each of which shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies available to the Company or its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns at law or in equity under this Agreement or otherwise: 

(a) Specific Performance. The right and remedy to have each and every one of the covenants in this Agreement specifically enforced and
the right and remedy to obtain injunctive relief, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of any of the nonsolicitation or other restrictive covenants and agreements contained herein would cause irreparable injury to the Company and its
subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy at law to the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns. 

(b) Accounting. The right and remedy to require Executive to account for and pay over to the Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates,
successors or assigns, as the case may be, all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by Executive that result from any transaction or activity constituting a breach of this Agreement. 

(c) Cessation of Payments. The right to cease all severance payments to Executive hereunder. 

(d) Enforceability in all Jurisdictions. Executive intends to and hereby confers jurisdiction to enforce each and every one of the
covenants and agreements contained herein upon the courts of any jurisdiction within the geographic scope of such covenants and agreements. If the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold any such covenant or agreement unenforceable by
reason of the breadth or such scope or otherwise, it is the intention of Executive and the Company that such determination shall not bar or in any way affect the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’, affiliates’, successors’ or
assigns’ right to the relief provided above in the courts of any other jurisdiction within the geographic scope of such covenants and agreements, as to breaches of such covenants and agreements in such other respective jurisdictions, such
covenants and agreements as they relate to each jurisdiction being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants and agreements. 

14. Binding Agreement. This Agreement is a personal contract and the rights and interests of the Executive hereunder may not be sold,
transferred, assigned, pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated by him. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive and his personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs,
distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to him hereunder had the Executive continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement to his devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to his estate. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall by its terms automatically be assigned to any successor in interest to the Company in a
Change in Control, including but not limited to any entity that acquires substantially all of the assets, capital stock or operations of the Company. 

  
 6 

 15. Return of Company Property. Executive agrees that following the termination of his
employment for any reason, he shall return all property of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates and any divisions thereof he may have managed which is then in or thereafter comes into his possession, including, but not limited to, documents,
contracts, agreements, plans, photographs, books, notes, electronically stored data and all copies of the foregoing as well as any materials or equipment supplied by the Company to Executive. 

16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Proprietary Rights Agreement, contains all the understandings between the
parties hereto pertaining to the matters referred to herein, and supersedes all undertakings and agreements, whether oral or in writing, previously entered into by them with respect thereto. Executive represents that, in executing this Agreement, he
does not rely and has not relied upon any representation or statement not set forth herein made by the Company with regard to the subject matter, bases or effect of this Agreement or otherwise. 

17. Amendment or Modification, Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is
agreed to in writing, signed by Executive and by a duly authorized officer of the Company. The failure of either party to this Agreement to enforce any of its terms, provisions or covenants shall not be construed as a waiver of the same or of the
right of such party to enforce the same. Waiver by either party hereto of any breach or default by the other party of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other breach or default. 

18. Notices. Any notice to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally, sent by courier
or fax or registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to Executive at the most recent address on the Company’s payroll records and to the Company at the address indicated below or to such other address as
either party may subsequently give notice of hereunder in writing:

 19. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remainder of the Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be held to
be excessively broad as to duration, activity or subject, such provisions shall be construed by limiting and reducing them so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent allowed by applicable law. 

20. Survivorship. The respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, including but not limited to Executive’s

 22. Governing Law; Venue. This contract shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California as they are applied to contracts between California residents to be performed completely within California. The parties irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the State of California, Santa Clara
County, and the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Branch nearest to Palo Alto, California, in any action to enforce an arbitration award or any other suit brought hereunder. Each party hereby agrees that any such
court shall have in personam jurisdiction over it and consents to service of process in any manner authorized by California law. 
 23.
Binding Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 13(a) of this Agreement, any dispute, claim or controversy based on, arising out of or relating to Executive’s employment or this Agreement shall be settled by final and binding
arbitration in Palo Alto, California, before a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the employment arbitration rules (the “Rules”) of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services/Endispute (“JAMS”), and
judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Arbitration may be compelled pursuant to the California Arbitration Act (Code of Civil Procedure §§ 1280 et seq.). If the parties are
unable to agree upon an arbitrator, one shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with its Rules. Subject to Section 24 below, each party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys, the expenses of its witnesses and all other expenses connected
with presenting its case. Other costs of the arbitration, including the cost of any record or transcripts of the arbitration, JAMS’s administrative fees, the fee of the arbitrator, and all other fees and costs, shall be borne by the Company.
This Section 23 is intended to be the exclusive method for resolving any and all claims by the parties against each other for payment of damages under this Agreement or relating to Executive’s employment; provided, however,
that Executive shall retain the right to file administrative charges with or seek relief through any government agency of competent jurisdiction, and to participate in any government investigation, including but not limited to (a) claims for
workers’ compensation, state disability insurance or unemployment insurance; (b) claims for unpaid wages or waiting time penalties brought before the California Division of Labor Standards Enforcement; provided, however, that
any appeal from an award or from denial of an award of wages and/or waiting time penalties shall be arbitrated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and (c) claims for administrative relief from the United States Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission and/or the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (or any similar agency in any applicable jurisdiction other than California); provided, further, that Executive shall not be entitled to obtain any monetary
relief through such agencies other than workers’ compensation benefits or unemployment insurance benefits. This Agreement shall not limit either party’s right to obtain any provisional remedy, including, without limitation, injunctive or
similar relief, from any court of competent jurisdiction as may be necessary to protect their rights and interests pending the outcome of arbitration, in any court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure §
1281.8 or any similar statute of an applicable jurisdiction. Seeking any such relief shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party’s right to compel arbitration. Both Executive and the Company expressly waive their right to a jury trial.

 24. Attorney Fees. In the event that any dispute between the Company and Executive should result in arbitration, the arbitrator
may award to one or more of the Prevailing Persons (as defined below) such reasonable attorney fees, costs and expenses, as determined by the arbitrator. Any judgment or order enforcing such arbitration may, in the discretion of the court entering
such judgment or order contain, a specific provision providing for the recovery of attorney fees and costs incurred in enforcing such judgment or order and an award of prejudgment interest from the date of the breach at the maximum rate of interest
allowed by law. For the purposes of this Section 24: 
 (a) “attorney fees” shall include, without limitation, attorney fees
incurred in the following: 
 (i) arbitration; 

(ii) post-arbitration order or judgment motions; 

(iii) contempt proceedings; 

(iv) garnishment, levy, and debtor and third party examinations; 

(v) discovery; and 

  
 8 

 (vi) bankruptcy litigation;

are intended solely for convenience, and no provision of this Agreement is to be construed by reference to the heading of any section or paragraph. 

26. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together
shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 27. Code Section 409A.

 EXHIBIT A 

EMPLOYEE INNOVATIONS AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT 

This Agreement is intended to formalize in writing certain understandings and procedures which have been in effect since the time I was
initially employed by Zhone Technologies, Inc. (“Company”). In return for my new or continued employment by Company and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which I hereby acknowledge, I acknowledge and
agree that: 
 1. Duties; At-Will Employment; No Conflict. I will perform for Company such
duties as may be designated by Company from time to time. I agree that my employment with Company is for no specified term, and may be terminated by Company at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice. Similarly, I may terminate
my employment with Company at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice. During my period of employment by Company, I will devote my best efforts to the interests of Company and will not engage in other employment or in any
activities determined by Company to be detrimental to the best interests of Company without the prior written consent of Company. 
 2.
Prior Work. All previous work done by me for Company relating in any way to the conception, reduction to practice, creation, derivation, design, development, manufacture, sale or support of products or services for Company is the property of
Company, and I hereby assign to Company all of my right, title and interest in and to such previous work. 
 3. Proprietary
Information. My employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust between Company and me with respect to any information: 
 (a)
Applicable to the business of Company; or 
 (b) Applicable to the business of any client or customer of Company, which may be made known
to me by Company or by any client or customer of Company, or learned by me in such context during the period of my employment. 
 All such information has
commercial value in the business in which Company is engaged and is hereinafter called “Proprietary Information.” By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information includes any and all technical and non-technical information including patent, copyright, trade secret, and proprietary information, techniques, sketches, drawings, models, inventions, know-how, processes,
apparatus, equipment, algorithms, software programs, software source documents, and formulae related to the current, future and proposed products and services of Company, and includes, without limitation, respective information concerning research,
experimental work, development, design details and specifications, engineering, financial information, procurement requirements, purchasing manufacturing, customer lists, business forecasts, sales and merchandising and marketing plans and
information. “Proprietary Information” also includes proprietary or confidential information of any third party who may disclose such information to Company or to me in the course of Company’s business. 

4. Ownership and Nondisclosure of Proprietary Information. All Proprietary Information is the sole property of Company, Company’s
assigns, and Company’s customers, and Company, Company’s assigns and Company’s customers shall be the sole and exclusive owner of all patents, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets and other rights in the Proprietary Information. I
hereby do and will assign to Company all rights, title and interest I may have or acquire in the Proprietary Information. At all times, both during my employment by Company and after termination of such employment, I will keep in confidence and
trust all Proprietary Information, and I will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information or anything directly relating to Proprietary Information without the written consent of Company, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of
performing my duties as an employee of Company. 

  
 1 

 I will maintain Proprietary Information in my possession as necessary and shall return to the
appropriate person or location or other wise properly dispose of Proprietary Information once that need to know no longer exists. I will not make copies of or otherwise reproduce Proprietary Information unless there is a legitimate business need for
reproduction. 
 5. Ownership and Return of Materials. All materials (including, without limitation, documents, drawings, models,
apparatus, sketches, designs, lists, and all other tangible media of expression) furnished to me by Company shall remain the property of Company. Upon termination of my employment, or at any time on the request of Company before termination, I will
promptly (but no later than five (5) days after the earlier of my employment’s termination or Company’s request) destroy or deliver to Company, at Company’s option, (a) all materials furnished to me by Company, (b) all
tangible media of expression which are in my possession and which incorporate any Proprietary Information or otherwise relate to Company’s business, and (c) written certification of my compliance with my obligations under this sentence.

 6. Innovations. As used in this Agreement, the term “Innovations” means all processes, machines, manufactures,
compositions of matter, improvements, inventions (whether or not protectable under patent laws), works of authorship, information fixed in any tangible medium of expression (whether or not protectable under copyright laws), moral rights, mask works,
trademarks, trade names, trade dress, trade secrets, know-how, ideas (whether or not protectable under trade secret laws), and all other subject matter protectable under patent, copyright, moral right, mask work, trademark, trade secret or other
laws, and includes without limitation all new or useful art, combinations, discoveries, formulae, manufacturing techniques, technical developments, discoveries, artwork, software, and designs. “Innovations” includes “Inventions,”
which is defined to mean any inventions protected under patent laws. 
 7. Disclosure of Prior Innovations. I have identified on
Exhibit A (“Prior Innovations”) attached hereto all Innovations, applicable to the business of Company or relating in any way to Company’s business or demonstrably anticipated research and development or business, which were
conceived, reduced to practice, created, derived, developed, or made by me prior to my employment with Company (collectively, the “Prior Innovations”), and I represent that such list is complete. I represent that I have no rights in any
such Innovations other than those Prior Innovations specified in Exhibit A (“Prior Innovations”). If there is no such list on Exhibit A (“Prior Innovations”), I represent that I have neither conceived, reduced to
practice, created, derived, developed nor made any such Prior Innovations at the time of signing this Agreement. 
 8. Assignment of
Innovations; License of Prior Innovations. I hereby agree promptly to disclose and describe to Company, and I hereby do and will assign to Company or Company’s designee my entire right, title, and interest in and to, (a) each of the
Innovations (including Inventions), and any associated intellectual property rights, which I may solely or jointly conceive, reduce to practice, create, derive, develop or make during the period of my employment with Company, which either
(i) relate, at the time of conception, reduction to practice, creation, derivation, development, or making of such Innovation, to Company’s business or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (ii) were developed
on any amount of Company’s time or with the use of any of Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information, or (iii) resulted from any work I performed for Company, and (b) each of the Innovations which is
not an Invention (as demonstrated by me by evidence meeting the clear and convincing standard of proof), and any associated intellectual property rights, which I may solely or jointly conceive, develop, reduce to practice, create, derive, develop,
or make during the period of my employment with Company, which are applicable to the business of Company (collectively, the Innovations identified in clauses (a) and (b) are hereinafter the “Company Innovations”).

  
 2 

 
To the extent any of the rights, title and interest in and to Company Innovations cannot be assigned by me to Company, I hereby grant to Company an exclusive, royalty-free, transferable,
irrevocable, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees) to practice such non-assignable rights, title and interest. To the extent any of the rights, title and interest in and to Company Innovations can be
neither assigned nor licensed by me to Company, I hereby irrevocably waive and agree never to assert such non-assignable and non-licensable rights, title and interest against Company or any of Company’s successors in interest to such
non-assignable and non-licensable rights. I hereby grant to Company or Company’s designees a royalty free, irrevocable, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees) to practice all applicable patent,
copyright, moral right, mask work, trade secret and other intellectual property rights relating to any Prior Innovations which I incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, in any Company Innovations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I agree that I
will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, any Prior Innovations in any Company Innovations without Company’s prior written consent. 

9. Future Innovations. I recognize that Innovations or Proprietary Information relating to my activities while working for Company and
conceived, reduced to practice, created, derived, developed, or made by me, alone or with others, within three (3) months after termination of my employment may have been conceived, reduced to practice, created, derived, developed, or made, as
applicable, in significant part while employed by Company. Accordingly, I agree that such Innovations and Proprietary Information shall be presumed to have been conceived, reduced to practice, created, derived, developed, or made, as applicable,
during my employment with Company and are to be promptly assigned to Company unless and until I have established the contrary by written evidence satisfying the clear and convincing standard of proof. 

10. Cooperation in Perfecting Rights to Proprietary Information and Innovations. 

(a) I agree to perform, during and after my employment, all acts deemed necessary or desirable by Company to permit and assist Company, at
Company’s expense, in obtaining and enforcing the full benefits, enjoyment, rights and title throughout the world in the Proprietary Information and Innovations assigned or licensed to, or whose rights are irrevocably waived and shall not be
asserted against, Company under this Agreement. Such acts may include, but are not limited to, execution of documents and assistance or cooperation (i) in the filing, prosecution, registration, and memorialization of assignment of any
applicable patents, copyrights, mask work, or other applications, (ii) in the enforcement of any applicable patents, copyrights, mask work, moral rights, trade secrets, or other proprietary rights, and (iii) in other legal proceedings
related to the Proprietary Information or Innovations. 
 (b) In the event that Company is unable for any reason to secure my signature to
any document required to file, prosecute, register, or memorialize the assignment of any patent, copyright, mask work or other applications or to enforce any patent, copyright, mask work, moral right, trade secret or other proprietary right under
any Proprietary Information (including improvements thereof) or any Innovations (including derivative works, improvements, renewals, extensions, continuations, divisionals, continuations in part, continuing patent applications, reissues, and
reexaminations thereof), I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Company and Company’s duly authorized officers and agents as my agents and attorneys-in-fact to
act for and on my behalf and instead of me, (i) to execute, file, prosecute, register and memorialize the assignment of any such application, (ii) to execute and file any documentation required for such enforcement, and (iii) to do
all other lawfully permitted acts to further the filing, prosecution, registration, memorialization of assignment, issuance, and enforcement of patents, copyrights, mask works, moral rights, trade secrets or other rights under the Proprietary
Information, or Innovations, all with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.

 11. No Violation of Rights of Third Parties. My performance of all the terms of this
Agreement and as an employee of Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by me prior to my employment with Company, and I will not disclose to Company, or induce
Company to use, any confidential or proprietary information or material belonging to any previous employer or others. I am not a party to any other agreement which will interfere with my full compliance with this Agreement. I agree not to enter into
any agreement, whether written or oral, in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 12. Survival. This Agreement
(a) shall survive my employment by Company; (b) does not in any way restrict my right or the right of Company to terminate my employment at any time, for any reason or for no reason; (c) inures to the benefit of successors and assigns
of Company; and (d) is binding upon my heirs and legal representatives. 
 13. Nonassignable Inventions. This Agreement does not
apply to an Invention which qualifies fully as a nonassignable invention under the provisions of Section 2870 of the California Labor Code. I acknowledge that a condition for an Invention to qualify fully as a non-assignable invention under the
provisions of Section 2870 of the California Labor Code is that the invention must be protected under patent laws. I have reviewed the notification in Exhibit B (“Limited Exclusion Notification”) and agree that my signature
acknowledges receipt of the notification. However, I agree to disclose promptly in writing to Company all Innovations (including Inventions) conceived, reduced to practice, created, derived, developed, or made by me during the term of my employment
and for three (3) months thereafter, whether or not I believe such Innovations are subject to this Agreement, to permit a determination by Company as to whether or not the Innovations should be the property of Company. Any such information will
be received in confidence by Company. 
 14. No Solicitation of Employees. During the term of my employment with Company and for a
period of two (2) years thereafter, I will not directly or indirectly, for myself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other persons, solicit, encourage, or cause others to solicit or encourage any employees of Company to terminate their
employment with Company. 
 15. Injunctive Relief. A breach of any of the promises or agreements contained herein will result in
irreparable and continuing damage to Company for which there will be no adequate remedy at law, and Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief and/or a decree for specific performance, and such other relief as may be proper (including monetary
damages if appropriate). 
 16. Attorneys’ Fees. In any legal action or other proceeding brought to enforce or interpret the
terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. 
 17. Notices.
Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered as follows, with notice deemed given as indicated: (a) by personal delivery, when delivered personally; (b) by overnight courier, upon written
verification of receipt; (c) by telecopy or facsimile transmission, upon acknowledgment of receipt of electronic transmission; or (d) by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, upon verification of receipt. Notices to me
shall be sent to any address in Company’s records or such other address as I may specify in writing. Notices to Company shall be sent to Company’s Human Resources Department or to such other address as Company may specify in writing. 

18. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the United States of America and by the laws of the
State of California, as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within California between California residents. Each of the parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal and
state courts located in California, as applicable, for any matter arising out of or relating to this Agreement, except that in actions seeking to enforce any order or any judgment of such federal or state courts located in California, such personal
jurisdiction shall be nonexclusive. 

  
 4 

 19. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of law to be
illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (i) that provision shall be deemed amended to achieve as nearly as possible the same economic effect as the original provision, and (ii) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected or impaired thereby. 
 20. Waiver; Amendment; Modification. The waiver by Company
of a term or provision of this Agreement, or of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by me, shall not be effective unless such waiver is in writing signed by Company. No waiver by Company of, or consent by Company to, a breach by me, will
constitute a waiver of, consent to or excuse of any other or subsequent breach by me. This Agreement may be amended or modified only with the written consent of both me and Company. No oral waiver, amendment or modification shall be effective under
any circumstances whatsoever. 
 21. Entire Agreement. This Agreement represents my entire understanding with Company with respect to
the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous understandings, written or oral. 
 22. Interpretation. This
Agreement shall be construed as a whole, according to its fair meaning, and not in favor or against any party. By way of example and not in limitation, this Agreement shall not be construed in favor of the party receiving a benefit nor against the
party responsible for any particular language in this Agreement. Captions are used for reference purposes only and should be ignored in the interpretation of the Agreement. 

I certify and acknowledge that I have carefully read all of the provisions of this Agreement and that I understand and will fully and
faithfully comply with such provisions.

 Exhibit A 

PRIOR INNOVATIONS 
  

 Exhibit B 

LIMITED EXCLUSION NOTIFICATION 

THIS IS TO NOTIFY you in accordance with Section 2872 of the California Labor Code that the foregoing Agreement between you and Company
does not require you to assign or offer to assign to Company any invention that you developed entirely on your own time without using Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information except for those inventions that either:

 (1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to Company’s business, or actual or demonstrably
anticipated research or development of Company; or 
 (2) Result from any work performed by you for Company. 

To the extent a provision in the foregoing Agreement purports to require you to assign an invention otherwise excluded from the preceding
paragraph, the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable. 
 This limited exclusion does not apply to any
patent or invention covered by a contract between Company and the United States or any of its agencies requiring full title to such patent or invention to be in the United States. 

I ACKNOWLEDGE RECEIPT of a copy of this notification.
