 Dear Officer, 
 As you know, we are very close to closing the transaction involving the sale of the Cendant Marketing

applicable withholding taxes, no later than April 15, 2006. You will not receive the payment if, prior to the payment date, your employment with Cendant MSD (or, following the transaction, the successor entity to Cendant MSD) terminates for any
reason. 
 This letter does not affect any party’s rights and obligations under the letter agreement, dated January 10, 2005, between Cendant MSD

(f/k/a Affinity Acquisition, Inc.), a Delaware

(the “Company”) and NATHANIEL J. LIPMAN (“Executive”).

 WHEREAS, pursuant to Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) made
and entered into as of the 26th day of July, 2005, by and among the Company, Affinion Group Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Affinity Acquisition Holdings, Inc.) (“Parent”), and Cendant Corporation, the Company will acquire (the
“Transaction”) all of the equity interests in Cendant Marketing Group, LLC (formerly Cendant Membership Services Holdings LLC) and Cendant International Holdings Limited (together, the “Subsidiaries”);

 WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, as a condition and inducement to Parent’s willingness
to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Company and Executive are entering into this Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the
Transaction, the Company desires to employ Executive and Executive desires to be employed by the Company; 
 WHEREAS, Cendant
Membership Services Holdings, LLC and Executive are parties to that certain employment agreement dated as of January 1, 2005, as such employment agreement has been amended or supplemented through the Effective Date (as defined in
Section 1) (the “Prior Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, Executive, as a condition of his employment, will make a
substantial investment in Parent concurrently with the closing of the Transaction by purchasing 205,000 shares of common stock of Parent, par value $0.01, at a price of $10 per share; 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Employment Period. 
 The initial term of Executive’s employment hereunder shall be for a period of five (5) years (the “Initial Term”) commencing
on the closing of the Transaction (the “Effective Date”) and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 3 (the “Employment Period”); provided, however,
that the Employment Period shall automatically be renewed for successive one (1) year terms upon the Expiration of the Initial Term unless either party gives at least ninety (90) days’ written notice of its intention not to renew the
Employment Period. Upon Executive’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, he shall immediately resign all positions with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, including any position as a member of the
Parent’s Board of Directors and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). 

 Section 2. Terms of Employment. 
 (a) Position. During the term of Executive’s employment, Executive shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company and shall be responsible for the management and affairs of the Company as directed by the Board. In addition to serving as President and Chief Executive Officer, prior to an initial public offering of the Parent’s common stock, the
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause Executive to be appointed a member of the Parent’s Board of Directors and the Board. Following an initial public offering of the Parent’s common stock, the Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to cause the Parent to nominate and recommend Executive to the Parent’s shareholders for election as a member of the Parent’s Board of Directors, and continue to use its reasonable best efforts to cause Executive to
be appointed or elected a member of the Board. In performing his duties hereunder, Executive shall report directly to the Board. 
 (b) Duties. During the term of Executive’s employment, Executive agrees to devote all of his business time to the business and affairs of the Company and to use Executive’s reasonable best efforts to perform faithfully,
effectively and efficiently his responsibilities and obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from (i) serving on civic or charitable boards or committees and (ii) managing personal
investments, so long as such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of Executive’s responsibilities hereunder. 
 (c) Compensation. 
 (i) Base Salary. During the term of Executive’s
employment, Executive shall receive an initial annual base salary in an amount equal to $450,000.00, less all applicable withholdings, which shall be paid in accordance with the customary payroll practices of the Company (as in effect from time to
time, the “Annual Base Salary”). The Annual Base Salary shall be subject to annual review and increases, and the Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced without Executive’s consent, unless the reduction is related to a broader
compensation reduction that is not limited to Executive and does not exceed 10% of his Annual Base Salary. 
 (ii)
Bonuses. For fiscal year 2005, Executive shall be eligible to receive a bonus pursuant to the bonus plan as in existence prior to the Effective Date in an amount to be determined by the Board in good faith. Thereafter, during the Employment
Period, the Company shall establish a bonus plan for each fiscal year (the “Plan”) pursuant to which Executive will be eligible to receive an annual bonus (the “Bonus”). The Board or the Compensation Committee of
the Board will administer the Plan and establish performance objectives for each year. In the event that the Company achieves target based on actual performance, Executive shall be entitled to receive a Bonus in an amount equal to 125% of
Executive’s Annual Base Salary (“Target Bonus”). Subject to Section 4, Executive will be entitled to receive the Bonus only upon the Company’s achievement of the specified performance objectives and if Executive is
employed on the last day of the applicable fiscal year. The Bonus shall become payable on or before March 15 following the end of the applicable fiscal year provided that the Board or Compensation Committee finally determines (x) that the
Company has achieved the applicable performance objectives and (y) the amount of the bonus that shall be paid to each executive entitled to receive a bonus for the applicable fiscal year. If 

  

 2 

 
the Board or Compensation Committee has not made such final determination by March 15, the Bonus (if any) shall instead be paid as soon as practicable
thereafter. 
 (iii) Benefits. During the term of Executive’s employment hereunder, he shall be entitled to
participate in all incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs applicable generally to other senior executives of the Company and shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all benefits under welfare
benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the Company to the extent applicable generally to other senior executives of the Company. The benefits provided to Executive shall be, in the aggregate, comparable to those benefits that
Executive was receiving at Cendant Membership Services Holdings, LLC immediately prior to the Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2(c)(iii) to the contrary, all benefit obligations are subject to guidance issued by the U.S.
Department of Treasury under Section 409A of the Code. To the extent required, the Company may modify the benefits provided under this Section 2(c)(iii) to comply with such guidance. 
 (iv) Expenses. During the term of Executive’s employment, Executive shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for all
reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in performance of his duties hereunder provided that Executive provides all necessary documentation in accordance with Company policy. 
 (v) Stock Options. Concurrent with the closing of the Transaction, Parent shall grant Executive a stock option (the “Option
Grant”) to purchase Parent’s common stock, par value $ 0.01, at an exercise price of $10 per share. The Option Grant will be pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Parent’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the
“Stock Incentive Plan”) and will be subject to the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan and Executive’s option agreement associated with the Option Grant (the “Option Agreement”). The Option Grant will be for
options to purchase 578,000 shares of the Parent’s common stock and will be exercisable for a maximum of ten years subject to the vesting, termination and other terms set forth in the Option Agreement. 
 (vi) Restricted Stock. Concurrent with the closing of the Transaction, Parent shall grant Executive a grant (the
“Restricted Stock Grant”) of restricted shares of Parent’s common stock, par value $ 0.01 (“Restricted Shares”). The Restricted Stock Grant will be pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the
Parent’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) and will be subject to the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan and the restricted stock agreement evidencing such grant (the “Restricted Stock
Agreement”). The Restricted Stock Grant will be comprised of 50,000 Restricted Shares and shall be subject to the vesting, termination and other terms set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement. 
 (vii) Investment. Concurrent with the closing of the Transaction, Executive shall purchase 205,000 shares of the Parent’s
common stock, par value $0.01, at a price of $10 per share. 
 Section 3. Termination of Employment. 
 (a) Death or Disability. Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death. If Executive
becomes subject to a Disability during the 

  

 3 

 
Term of Employment (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), the Company may give Executive written notice in accordance with Sections 3(e)
and 10(h) of its intention to terminate Executive’s employment. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means (i) Executive’s inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically
determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, or (ii) Executive is, by reason of any medically determinable physical of mental
impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident or health plan
covering employees of the Company. 
 (b) Cause. Executive’s employment may be terminated at any time by the
Company for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean Executive’s (i) conviction of a felony or a crime of moral turpitude; (ii) conduct that constitutes fraud or embezzlement; (iii) willful
misconduct or willful gross neglect; (iv) continued willful failure to substantially perform his duties as President and Chief Executive Officer; or (v) a material breach by Executive of this Agreement; provided that in the event of a
termination pursuant to clause (iv) or (v), to the extent such failure to perform duties or material breach is subject to cure, the Company shall have notified Executive in writing describing such failure to perform duties or material breach
and Executive shall have failed to cure such failure to perform or breach within 30 days after his receipt of such written notice. 
 (c) Termination Without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment hereunder without Cause at any time. 
 (d) Good Reason. Executive’s employment may be terminated at any time by Executive for Good Reason or without Good Reason upon 90 days’ prior written notice, provided, in the case of a termination for
Good Reason, that Executive provides such notice within 60 days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the termination for Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means voluntary resignation after any of
the following actions taken by the Company or any of its subsidiaries without Executive’s consent: (i) prior to an initial public offering of the Parent’s common stock, removal from, or failure to be elected or re-elected to, the
Parent’s Board of Directors, or prior to an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock, removal from, or failure to be elected or re-elected to, the Board; (ii) following an initial public offering of the Parent’s
common stock, failure of Executive to be nominated and recommended by Parent for election to the Parent’s Board of Directors, or following an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock, failure of Executive to be nominated and
recommended by the Company for election to the Board; (iii) any material failure of the Company to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, (iv) a material and adverse change to, or a material reduction of, Executive’s duties and
responsibilities to the Company, (v) a reduction in Executive’s Annual Base Salary and Target Bonus (not including any diminution related to a broader compensation reduction that is not limited to Executive specifically and that is not
more than 10% in the aggregate) or (vi) the relocation of Executive’s primary office to a location more than 35 miles from the prior location; provided that in the event of a termination pursuant to clause (iii) or (iv), to the extent
such failure, change or reduction is subject to cure, the Company shall have failed to cure such failure, change or reduction within 30 days after its receipt of Executive’s written notice. 
  

 4 

 (e) Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company for Cause or without
Cause, or by Executive for Good Reason or without Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 10(h). For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of
Termination” means a written notice that (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide
a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date. The failure by
Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance that contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of Executive or the Company hereunder or preclude Executive or the Company
from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder. 
 (f) Date
of Termination. “Date of Termination” means (i) if Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, without Cause or by reason of Disability, or by Executive for Good Reason or without Good Reason, the
date of receipt of the Notice of Termination (in the case of a termination with or without Good Reason, provided such notice is in accordance with Section 3(d)) or any later date specified therein pursuant to Section 3(e), as the case may
be and (ii) if Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death, the date of death. 
 Section 4. Obligations of the
Company upon Termination; Repurchase Rights. 
 (a) With Good Reason; Without Cause. If during the Employment
Period, the Company shall terminate Executive’s employment without Cause or Executive shall terminate his employment for Good Reason, then the Company will provide Executive with the following severance payments and/or benefits: 
 (i) The Company shall pay to Executive in a lump sum, to the extent not previously paid, (i) the Annual Base Salary through the Date
of Termination, and (ii) the Bonus earned for any fiscal year ended prior to the year in which the Date of Termination occurs, provided that Executive was employed on the last day of such year (“Accrued Obligations”); and

 (ii) After the Date of Termination, the Company will pay Executive, in eight quarterly installments commencing as of the
Date of Termination, an aggregate sum of 200% of Executive’s Annual Base Salary and Target Bonus. 
 In addition, if such termination occurs prior to an
initial public offering of the Parent’s common stock, the Company shall appoint Executive to serve as an observer at all meetings of the Board and Parent’s Board of Directors (other than meetings of a committee thereof) until the earliest
to occur of (w) an initial public offering of Parent’s common stock, (x) Executive’s engaging in behavior that would constitute a basis for a “Cause” termination had he remained employed by the Company,
(y) Executive’s disposition of stock such that he no longer owns at least 1% of the shares of capital stock of the Company, and (z) a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s or Parent’s shares of capital stock to
an Independent Third Party, or an Asset Sale (as such terms 

  

 5 

 
are used in the Management Investor Rights Agreement). Thereafter, the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive or his legal representatives.

 (b) Death or Disability. If Executive’s employment shall be terminated by reason of Executive’s death or
Disability, then the Company will provide Executive with the following severance payments and/or benefits: The Company shall pay Executive or his legal representatives (A) the Accrued Obligations; (B) a lump sum equal to 100% of
Executive’s Annual Base Salary in the event his employment is terminated by reason of his Disability or death; and (C) the continuance of death or Disability benefits thereafter in accordance with the terms of such plans then in effect.

 Thereafter, the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive or his legal representatives. 
 (c) Cause; Other than for Good Reason. 
 (i) If Executive’s employment shall be terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive without Good Reason, then the Company
shall have no further payment obligations to Executive other than for payment of the Accrued Obligations. Thereafter, the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive other than any indemnification rights he may have pursuant to
Section 9. 
 (ii) If Executive’s employment shall be terminated by the Company for Cause, then the Company or its
designee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase all or any portion of the shares of common stock of Parent held by Executive (including any shares of Parent’s common stock received upon a distribution from any deferred
compensation plan, any Restricted Shares or any common stock issuable upon exercise of any options held by Executive) in accordance with the provisions of the Management Investor Rights Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Management
Investor Rights Agreement”). The Company (or its designee) shall have the right to record the transfer of the shares of Parent’s common stock in connection with such purchase on its books and records without the consent of Executive.

 (d) Company Repurchase Right. In the event of Executive’s death or his termination of employment for any reason
other than Cause, the Company (or its designee) may, by written notice following such employment termination, elect to purchase all or any portion of the shares of common stock of Parent held by Executive (including any shares of the Parent’s
common stock received upon a distribution from any deferred compensation plan, any Restricted Shares or any common stock issuable upon exercise of any options held by Executive) for Fair Market Value (as each such term is defined in the Management
Investor Rights Agreement). The determination date for purposes of determining the Fair Market Value shall be the closing date of the purchase of the applicable shares. The closing date of the sale purchase pursuant to this Section 4(d) shall
take place on a date designated by the Company or its designee, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of the Management Investor Rights Agreement. 
 (e) Separation Agreement and General Release. The Company’s obligations to make payments under Sections 4(a) and 4(b) are
conditioned on Executive’s or his legal representative’s executing a separation agreement and general release of claims against the 

  

 6 

 
Company and its affiliates (and their officers and directors) in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company. 
 Section 5. Restrictive Covenants. 
 Executive shall be subject to the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 7 of the Management Investor Rights Agreement in accordance with its terms. 
 Section 6. Non-Disparagement. 
 (a) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until the third anniversary of the Date of Termination, neither Executive nor his agents, on the one hand, nor the Company formally, its senior executives, or a member of
the Board, on the other hand, shall directly or indirectly issue or communicate any public statement, or statement likely to become public, that maligns, denigrates or disparages the other (including, in the case of communications by Executive or
his agents, any of the Company’s officers, directors or employees). The foregoing shall not be violated by truthful responses to legal process or governmental inquiry. 
 Section 7. Severance Payments. 
 In addition to the foregoing, and not in any way in limitation of any right or remedy otherwise available to the Company, if Executive violates any provision of Section 7 of the Management Investor Rights
Agreement or Section 6 hereof, any severance payments then or thereafter due from the Company to Executive shall be terminated immediately and the Company’s obligation to pay and Executive’s right to receive such severance payments
shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. 
 Section 8. Executive’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

 (a) Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company and the Subsidiaries that: 
 (1) Executive has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby, and this Agreement has been duly executed by Executive; 
 (2) the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by Executive does not and will not, with or without notice or the passage of time, conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any agreement, contract or instrument to which Executive is a party or any judgment, order or decree
to which Executive is subject; 
 (3) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, consulting agreement,
non-compete agreement, fee for services agreement, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement with any other Person; 
  

 7 

 (4) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Executive, this
Agreement will be a legal, valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms; 
 (5)
Executive understands that Parent and the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truth of the representations and warranties of Executive set forth herein and Executive consents to such reliance. 
 (6) as of the date of execution of this Agreement, Executive is not in breach of any of its terms, including having committed any acts
that would form the basis for a Cause termination if such act had occurred after the Effective Date. 
 (b) The Company and
the Subsidiaries hereby represent and warrant to Executive that: 
 (1) the Company has all requisite power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and this Agreement has been duly executed by the Company; 
 (2) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company does not and will not, with or without notice or the passage of time, conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any agreement,
contract or instrument to which the Company is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which the Company is subject; 
 (3) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Executive, this Agreement will be a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms; and 
 (4) the Company understands that Executive will rely upon the accuracy and truth of the representations and warranties of the Company set
forth herein and the Company consents to such reliance. 
 Section 9. Indemnification. 
 The Company shall secure Directors’ and Officers’ liability insurance for the benefit of Executive on terms at least equal to
those applicable to the other directors and officers of the Company (which insurance, for Executive, shall provide for advancement of defense costs) and shall indemnify Executive to the maximum extent permitted under the General Corporate Law of
Delaware. 
 Section 10. General Provisions. 
 (a) Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the
fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, prohibited or unenforceable under any present or future law, and if the rights and obligations of any party under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected 

  

 8 

 
thereby, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction; furthermore, in lieu of such invalid or unenforceable provision there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement, a legal, valid and enforceable provision as
similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 (b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Management Investor Rights Agreement, the Subscription Agreement, the Stock Incentive
Plan, Option Agreement, and Restricted Stock Agreement embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or
representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way (including, without limitation, any other employment, severance or change-in-control agreement or understanding). For the
avoidance of doubt, Executive, the Company and the Subsidiaries acknowledge that any agreement between Executive and Cendant Corporation, Cendant Membership Services Holdings, LLC, Cendant Marketing Group, LLC, Cendant International Holdings
Limited, or any subsidiary or affiliate of any of the foregoing, entered into prior to the Effective Date, including without limitation, the Prior Agreement, shall be void ab initio as of immediately before the Effective Date. 
 (c) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which is deemed to be an original and all of
which taken together constitute one and the same agreement. 
 (d) Successors and Assigns. 
 (i) This Agreement is personal to Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by Executive
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal representatives. 
 (ii) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. The Company will require
any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to
the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as
aforesaid that assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise. 
 (e) Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICTING PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER 

  

 9 

 
JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE TO BE APPLIED. IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, THE INTERNAL LAW
OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF UNDER SUCH JURISDICTION’S CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW ANALYSIS, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAW OF SOME OTHER JURISDICTION WOULD ORDINARILY APPLY.

 (f) Enforcement. 
 (i) Arbitration. Except for the Company or its Affiliate’s right to obtain injunctive relief for violation of Sections 5 and 6 of this Agreement or Section 7 of the Management Investor Rights
Agreement, any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or its interpretation, application, implementation, breach or enforcement which the parties are unable to resolve by mutual agreement, shall be settled by
submission by either party of the controversy, claim or dispute to binding arbitration in New York (unless the parties agree in writing to a different location), before a single arbitrator in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules
of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. In any such arbitration proceeding the parties agree to provide all discovery deemed necessary by the arbitrator. The decision and award made by the arbitrator shall be final, binding and
conclusive on all parties hereto for all purposes, and judgment may be entered thereon in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party shall bear its or his costs and expenses in any such arbitration and one-half of the arbitrator’s fees
and costs; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall have the discretion to award the prevailing party reimbursement of its or his reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. 
 (ii) Remedies. All remedies hereunder are cumulative, are in addition to any other remedies provided for by law and may, to the
extent permitted by law, be exercised concurrently or separately, and the exercise of any one remedy shall not be deemed to be an election of such remedy or to preclude the exercise of any other remedy. 
 (iii) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. 
 (g) Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of
this Agreement may be amended and waived only with the prior written consent of the Company and Executive and no course of conduct or failure or delay in enforcing the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of such provisions or
affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 (h) Notices. Any
notice provided for in this Agreement must be in writing and must be either personally delivered, transmitted via telecopier, mailed by first class mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested) or sent by reputable overnight courier service
