set forth below, must designate: (i) the amount of Compensation to be deferred, (ii) the time of the distribution, and (iii) the form of the distribution.

the election being made at least five (5) years after the previously elected date of distribution, and (iii) any re-deferral election affecting a distribution at a fixed date must be filed with the
Employer at least twelve (12) months before the first scheduled payment under the previous fixed date distribution election. Once a sub-account begins distribution, no such changes to distributions shall

notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Administrative Committee, in its sole discretion, may elect to (i) accelerate the time or form of payment of a benefit owed to a Participant hereunder in accordance with the terms
and subject to the conditions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(j)(4), or (ii) delay the time of payment of a benefit owed to a Participant hereunder in accordance with the terms and subject
to the conditions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(7). By way of example, and at the sole discretion of the Administrative Committee, if a Participant’s entire Account balance is less than
the applicable Code Section 402(g) annual limit, the Employer may distribute the Participant’s Account in a lump sum provided that the distribution results in the termination of the participant’s entire interest in the Plan, subject
to the plan aggregation rules of Code Section 409A and regulations thereunder. By way of example, the Administrative Committee may permit such acceleration of the time or schedule of a payment under the arrangement to an individual other than a
Participant as may be necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(1)(B)). 
 6.9.
Unforeseeable Emergency. The Administrative Committee may permit an early distribution of part or all of any deferred amounts; provided, however, that such distribution shall be made only if the Administrative Committee, in
its sole discretion, determines that the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary, has experienced an Unforeseeable Emergency. An Unforeseeable Emergency is defined as a severe financial hardship resulting from an illness or accident of
the Participant, the Participant’s spouse, the Participant’s beneficiary, or a dependent (as defined in Code Section 152(a)) of the Participant, loss of the Participant’s property due to casualty or other similar extraordinary
and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. If an Unforeseeable Emergency is determined to exist, a distribution may not exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy such emergency plus amounts
necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the
Participant’s assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). Upon a distribution to a Participant under this Section 6.9, the Participant’s Deferrals shall cease and no further
Deferrals shall be made for such Participant for the remainder of the Plan Year and one (1) subsequent Plan Year. 

  
 12 

 6.10. Distributions to Specified Employee. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if any Participant is a Specified Employee upon a Separation from Service for any reason other than death, distributions to such Participant shall not commence until the first day of the seventh month following the
date of Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Participant). If distributions are to be made in annual installments, the second installment and all those thereafter will be made on the applicable Annual Distribution Date
after the anniversary of the Participant’s Separation from Service. 
 6.11. Domestic Relations Orders. The
Administrative Committee may permit such acceleration of the time or schedule of a payment under the arrangement to an individual other than a Participant as may be necessary to fulfill a domestic relations order (as defined in Code
Section 414(p)(1)(B)). 
 6.12. Minimum Distribution. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if the
balance of a Participant’s Account or sub-account at the time of a distribution event is equal to or less than the applicable dollar amount established under Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Internal
Revenue Code, then the Participant shall be paid his or her Account or sub-account as a single lump sum. 

6.13. Form of Payment. All distributions shall be made in the form of cash. 

6.14. Distributions Upon a
Change-in-Control. Upon a Change-in-Control, distributions will be made
according to the one-time Change in Control election made by the Participant or, if no election is made, in a lump-sum payment no later than ninety (90) days
following the Change-in-Control. Notwithstanding any distribution election to the contrary, if a
Change-in-Control occurs and a Participant incurs a Separation from Service (whether voluntary or involuntary) during the period beginning on the date of the Change-in-Control and ending on the second anniversary of the Change-in-Control, then the
remaining amount of the Participant’s vested Account shall be paid to the Participant or his or her beneficiary in a lump-sum payment no later than ninety (90) days following the Participant’s
Separation from Service. 
 ARTICLE 7 

BENEFICIARIES 
 7.1.
Beneficiaries. Each Participant may from time to time designate one or more persons (who may be any one or more members of such person’s family or other persons, administrators, trusts, foundations or other entities) as
his or her beneficiary under the Plan. Such designation shall be made in a form prescribed by the Administrative Committee. If you are married, your spouse generally is treated as your beneficiary, unless you and your spouse properly designate an
alternative beneficiary to receive your benefits under the Plan. Each Participant may at any time and from time to time, change any previous beneficiary designation, by amending his or her previous designation in a form prescribed by the
Administrative Committee. If more than one person is the beneficiary of a deceased Participant, each such person shall receive a pro rata share of any death benefit payable unless otherwise designated in the applicable form. If a beneficiary who is
receiving benefits dies, all benefits that were payable to such beneficiary shall then be payable to the estate of that beneficiary. If you do not designate a beneficiary to receive your benefits upon death, your benefits will be distributed first
to your spouse. If you have no 

  
 13 

 spouse at the time of death, your benefits will be distributed equally to your children. If you have no
children at the time of your death, your benefits will be distributed to your estate. For this purpose, any designation of your spouse as designated beneficiary is automatically revoked upon a formal divorce decree unless you re-execute a new beneficiary designation form or enter into a valid qualified domestic relations order (QDRO). 

7.2. Lost Beneficiary. All Participants and beneficiaries shall have the obligation to keep the Administrative
Committee informed of their current address until such time as all benefits due have been paid. If a Participant or beneficiary cannot be located by the Administrative Committee exercising due diligence, then, in its sole discretion, the
Administrative Committee may presume that the Participant or beneficiary is deceased for purposes of the Plan and all unpaid amounts (net of due diligence expenses) owed to the Participant or beneficiary shall be paid accordingly or, if a
beneficiary cannot be so located, then such amounts may be forfeited. Any such presumption of death shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties. 

ARTICLE 8 
 FUNDING

 8.1. Prohibition Against Funding. Should any investment be acquired in connection with the liabilities
assumed under this Plan, it is expressly understood and agreed that the Participants and beneficiaries shall not have any right with respect to, or claim against, such assets nor shall any such purchase be construed to create a trust of any kind or
a fiduciary relationship between the Employer and the Participants, their beneficiaries or any other person. Any such assets shall be and remain a part of the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Employer, subject to the claims of its
general creditors. It is the express intention of the parties hereto that this arrangement shall be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of the ERISA. Each Participant and beneficiary shall be required to look to the provisions of
this Plan and to the Employer itself for enforcement of any and all benefits due under this Plan, and to the extent any such person acquires a right to receive payment under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured
general creditor of the Employer. The Employer or the Trust shall be designated the owner and beneficiary of any investment acquired in connection with its obligation under this Plan. 

8.2. Deposits in Trust. Notwithstanding Section 8.1, or any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the
Employer may deposit into the Trust any amounts it deems appropriate to pay the benefits under this Plan. The amounts so deposited may include all contributions made pursuant to a Deferral Agreement by a Participant, all Matching Contributions and
any Employer Discretionary Contributions. 
 8.3. Withholding of Employee Contributions. The Administrative
Committee is authorized to make any and all necessary arrangements with the Employer in order to withhold the Participant’s Deferrals under Section 3.1 hereof from his or her Compensation. The Administrative Committee shall determine the
amount and timing of such withholding. 

  
 14 

 ARTICLE 9 

CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION 

9.1. General. If a Participant, beneficiary or his or her representative is denied all or a portion of an expected
Plan benefit for any reason and the Participant, beneficiary or his or her representative desires to dispute the decision of the Administrative Committee, he or she must file a written notification of his or her claim with the Administrative
Committee. 
 9.2. Claims Procedure. Upon receipt of any written claim for benefits, the Administrative
Committee shall be notified and shall give due consideration to the claim presented. If any Participant or beneficiary claims to be entitled to benefits under the Plan and the Administrative Committee determines that the claim should be denied in
whole or in part, the Administrative Committee shall, in writing, notify such claimant within ninety (90) days (forty-five (45) days if the claim is on account of Disability) of receipt of the claim that the claim has been denied. The
Administrative Committee may extend the period of time for making a determination with respect to any claim for a period of up to ninety (90) days (thirty (30) days if claim is on account of Disability), provided that the Administrative
Committee determines that such an extension is necessary because of special circumstances and notifies the claimant, prior to the expiration of the initial ninety (90) day (or forty-five (45) day) period, of the circumstances requiring the
extension of time and the date by which the Plan expects to render a decision. If the claim is denied to any extent by the Administrative Committee, the Administrative Committee shall furnish the claimant with a written notice setting forth: 

(a) the specific reason or reasons for denial of the claim; 

(b) a specific reference to the Plan provisions on which the denial is based; 

(c) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation
of why such material or information is necessary; and 
 (d) an explanation of the provisions of this Article. 

Under no circumstances shall any failure by the Administrative Committee to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.2 be considered to constitute an
allowance of the claimant’s claim. 
 9.3. Right of Appeal. A claimant who has a claim denied wholly or
partially under Section 9.2 may appeal to the Administrative Committee for reconsideration of that claim. A request for reconsideration under this Section must be filed by written notice within sixty (60) days (one-hundred and eighty (180) days if the claim is on account of Disability) after receipt by the claimant of the notice of denial under Section 9.2. 

9.4. Review of Appeal. Upon receipt of an appeal the Administrative Committee shall promptly take action to give
due consideration to the appeal. Such consideration may include a hearing of the parties involved, if the Administrative Committee feels such a hearing is necessary. In preparing for this appeal the claimant shall be given the right to review
pertinent documents and the right to submit in writing a statement of issues and comments. After consideration of the merits of the appeal the Administrative Committee shall issue a written decision which shall be binding on all parties. The
decision shall specifically state its reasons and pertinent Plan provisions on which it relies. The Administrative Committee’s decision shall be issued within sixty (60) days 

  
 15 

 (forty-five (45) days if the claim is on account of Disability) after the appeal is filed, except that
the Administrative Committee may extend the period of time for making a determination with respect to any claim for a period of up one-hundred and twenty (120) days (ninety (90) days if the claim is
on account of Disability), provided that the Administrative Committee determines that such an extension is necessary because of special circumstances and notifies the claimant, prior to the expiration of the initial
one-hundred and twenty (120) day (or, if the claim is on account of Disability, initial ninety (90) day) period, of the circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Plan
expects to render a decision. Under no circumstances shall any failure by the Administrative Committee to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.4 be considered to constitute an allowance of the claimant’s claim. 

In the case of a claim on account of Disability: (i) the review of the denied claim shall be conducted by an employee who is neither the
individual who made the initial determination or a subordinate of such person; and (ii) no deference shall be given to the initial determination. For issues involving medical judgment, the employee must consult with an independent health care
professional who may not be the health care professional who rendered the initial claim. 
 9.5. Designation.
The Administrative Committee may designate any other person of its choosing to make any determination otherwise required under this Article. Any person so designated shall have the same authority and discretion granted to the Administrative
Committee hereunder. 
 ARTICLE 10 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

10.1. Administrative Committee. 

(a) The Administrative Committee is expressly empowered to limit the amount of Compensation that may be deferred; to deposit
amounts into the Trust in accordance with Section 8.2 hereof; to interpret the Plan, and to determine all questions arising in the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan; to employ actuaries, accountants, counsel, and other
persons it deems necessary in connection with the administration of the Plan; to request any information from the Employer it deems necessary to determine whether the Employer would be considered insolvent or subject to a proceeding in bankruptcy;
and to take all other necessary and proper actions to fulfill its duties as the Administrative Committee. 
 (b) The
Administrative Committee shall not be liable for any actions by it hereunder, unless due to its own negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith. 

(c) The Administrative Committee shall be indemnified and saved harmless by the Employer from and against all personal
liability to which it may be subject by reason of any act done or omitted to be done in its official capacity as Administrative Committee in good faith in the administration of the Plan and Trust, including all expenses reasonably incurred in its
defense in the event the Employer fails to provide such defense upon the request of the Administrative Committee. The Administrative Committee is relieved of all responsibility in connection with its duties hereunder to the fullest extent permitted
by law, short of breach of duty to the beneficiaries. 

  
 16 

 10.2. No Assignment. Benefits or payments under this Plan shall
not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, whether voluntary or involuntary, and any
attempt to so anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, attach or garnish the same shall not be valid, nor shall any such benefit or payment be in any way liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagement
or torts of any Participant or beneficiary, or any other person entitled to such benefit or payment pursuant to the terms of this Plan, except to such extent as may be required by law. If any Participant or beneficiary or any other person entitled
to a benefit or payment pursuant to the terms of this Plan becomes bankrupt or attempts to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, attach or garnish any benefit or payment under this Plan, in whole or in part, or if any
attempt is made to subject any such benefit or payment, in whole or in part, to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the Participant or beneficiary or any other person entitled to any such benefit or payment pursuant to the
terms of this Plan, then such benefit or payment, in the discretion of the Administrative Committee, shall cease and terminate with respect to such Participant or beneficiary, or any other such person. 

10.3. No Employment Rights. Participation in this Plan shall not be construed to confer upon any Participant the
legal right to be retained in the employ of the Employer, or give a Participant or beneficiary, or any other person, any right to any payment whatsoever, except to the extent of the benefits provided for hereunder. Each Participant shall remain
subject to discharge to the same extent as if this Plan had never been adopted. 
 10.4. Incompetence. If the
Administrative Committee determines that any person to whom a benefit is payable under this Plan is incompetent by reason of physical or mental disability, the Administrative Committee shall have the power to cause the payments becoming due to such
person to be made to another for his or her benefit without responsibility of the Administrative Committee or the Employer to see to the application of such payments. Any payment made pursuant to such power shall, as to such payment, operate as a
complete discharge of the Employer, the Administrative Committee and the Trustee. 
 10.5. Identity. If, at any
time, any doubt exists as to the identity of any person entitled to any payment hereunder or the amount or time of such payment, the Administrative Committee shall be entitled to hold such sum until such identity or amount or time is determined or
until an order of a court of competent jurisdiction is obtained. The Administrative Committee shall also be entitled to pay such sum into court in accordance with the appropriate rules of law. Any expenses incurred by the Employer, Administrative
Committee, and Trust incident to such proceeding or litigation shall be charged against the Account of the affected Participant. 
 10.6.
Other Benefits. The benefits of each Participant or beneficiary hereunder shall be in addition to any benefits paid or payable to or on account of the Participant or beneficiary under any other pension, disability, annuity
or retirement plan or policy whatsoever. 

  
 17 

 10.7. Expenses. Expenses incurred in the administration of the
Plan, whether incurred by the Employer or the Plan shall be paid by the Employer. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence or anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrative Committee shall provide for and allow the Employer
to forward for payment all expenses, or any portion thereof as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Employer, associated with the administration of the Plan to the Participants. Distributions to and payment of such Plan related
expenses by the Participants shall be done in a manner as determined by the Employer in their sole and absolute discretion. Participants shall evidence their acceptance of this Section 10.7 Expenses by virtue of their individual participation
in this Plan. 
 10.8. Insolvency. Should the Employer be considered insolvent (as defined by the Trust), the
Employer, through its Board and chief executive officer, shall give immediate written notice of such to the Administrative Committee of the Plan and the Trustee. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Committee or Trustee shall cease to
make any payments to Participants who were Employees of the Employer or their beneficiaries and shall hold any and all assets attributable to the Employer for the benefit of the general creditors of the Employer. 

10.9. Amendment or Modification. The Employer may, at any time, in its sole discretion, amend or modify the Plan
in whole or in part, except that no such amendment or modification shall have any retroactive effect to reduce any amounts allocated to a Participant’s Accounts, and provided that such amendment or modification complies with Code
Section 409A and related regulations thereunder. 
 10.10. Plan Suspension. The Employer further reserves
the right to suspend the Plan in whole or in part, except that no such suspension shall have any retroactive effect to reduce any amounts allocated to a Participant’s Accounts, and provided that the distribution of the vested Participant
Accounts shall not be accelerated but shall be paid at such time and in such manner as determined under the terms of the Plan immediately prior to suspension as if the Plan had not been suspended. 

10.11. Plan Termination. The Employer further reserves the right to terminate the Plan in whole or in part, in the
following manner, except that no such termination shall have any retroactive effect to reduce any amounts allocated to a Participant’s Accounts, and provided that such termination complies with Code Section 409A and related regulations
thereunder: 
 (a) The Employer, in its sole discretion, may terminate the Plan and distribute all vested Participants’
Accounts no earlier than twelve (12) calendar months from the date of the Plan termination and no later than twenty-four (24) calendar months from the date of the Plan termination, provided however that all other similar arrangements are
also terminated by the Employer for any affected Participant and no other similar arrangements are adopted by the Employer for any affected Participant within a three (3) year period from the date of termination; or 

(b) The Employer may decide, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Plan in the event of a corporate dissolution taxed under
Code Section 331, or with the approval of a bankruptcy court, provided that the Participants vested Account balances are distributed to Participants and are included in the Participants’ gross income in the latest of: (i) the calendar
year in which the termination occurs; (ii) the calendar year in which the amounts deferred are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; or (iii) the first calendar year in which payment is administratively practicable. 

  
 18 

 10.12. Plan Termination due to a Change-in-Control. The Employer may decide, in its discretion, to terminate the Plan in the event of a
Change-in-Control and distribute all vested Participants Account balances no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the Change-in-Control and no later than twelve (12) months after the effective date of the Change-in-Control, provided however
that the Employer terminates all other similar arrangements for any affected Participant. 
 10.13.
Construction. All questions of interpretation, construction or application arising under or concerning the terms of this Plan shall be decided by the Administrative Committee, in its sole and final discretion, whose decision
shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons. 
 10.14. Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed
by, construed and administered in accordance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, Code Section 409A, and any other applicable federal law, provided, however, that to the extent not preempted by federal law this Plan shall be governed by,
construed and administered under the laws of the State Commonwealth of Delaware, other than its laws respecting choice of law. 
 10.15.
Severability. If any provision of this Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, its invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Plan and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such
provision had not been included therein. If the inclusion of any Employee (or Employees) as a Participant under this Plan would cause the Plan to fail to comply with the requirements of sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA, or Code
Section 409A, then the Plan shall be severed with respect to such Employee or Employees, who shall be considered to be participating in a separate arrangement. 

10.16. Headings. The Article headings contained herein are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for
reference and in no way define, limit, enlarge or describe the scope or intent of this Plan nor in any way shall they affect this Plan or the construction of any provision thereof. 

10.17. Terms. Capitalized terms shall have meanings as defined herein. Singular nouns shall be read as plural,
masculine pronouns shall be read as feminine, and vice versa, as appropriate. 
 10.18. Right of Setoff. The
Employer may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deduct from and setoff against any amounts payable to a Participant from this Plan such amounts as may be owed by a Participant to the Employer, although the Participant shall remain liable
for any part of the Participant’s payment obligation not satisfied through such deduction and setoff; provided, however, that this setoff may occur only at the date on which the amount would otherwise be distributed to the Participant as
required by Code Section 409A. By electing to participate in the Plan and deferring compensation hereunder, the Participant agrees to any deduction or setoff under this Section 10.18 which is allowed by law.

 Exhibit 10.5 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Michael
Praeger (“Executive”) and AvidXchange, Inc. (the “Company”) as of August 26, 2021. Executive and the Company are collectively referred to as the
“Parties” or individually as a “Party”. 
 1. Employment
and Position. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to employ Executive and Executive hereby accepts such employment. Executive’s initial position under this Agreement shall be as the
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President reporting to the Company’s Board of Directors. Executive’s position shall be based in the Company’s offices located in Charlotte, North Carolina. In addition, Executive understands
and acknowledges that his position will require business travel as needed from time to time. 
 2. Duties. During the
Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall: (a) diligently, faithfully and competently perform, on a full time basis, the services and duties customary and commensurate with Executive’s position(s) with the Company or as

At-Will. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, offer letters, or other pre-employment documents, the Company and Executive agree that Executive’s
employment with the Company is “at will” and may be terminated at any time with or without cause without any liability or obligation of the Company except as expressly set forth herein. Executive shall give Company at least four
(4) weeks prior written notice of resignation for any reason. The Company is entitled upon receiving such notice to accept the resignation as effective on the resignation date proposed by Executive or an earlier date during the notice period as

Executive’s employment at any time without advanced notice, written or otherwise. 

  
 1 

 4. Compensation and Benefits. 

(a) Base Salary. As compensation for Executive’s services, the Company will pay Executive a base salary (as potentially
adjusted by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion, the “Base Salary”). Executive’s Base Salary under this Agreement initially shall be at an annualized periodic gross rate equivalent to
$485,000.00; provided, however, the Base Salary shall be subject to review and adjustment by the Board’s Compensation Committee in accordance with the Compensation Committee’s standard practices for executive compensation. The Base Salary
shall, in all cases, be subject to applicable deductions and withholdings required by law. The Company will pay the Base Salary to Executive in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices for its employees which Executive
acknowledges may be changed by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion. 
 (b) Annual Bonus. For each fiscal year
during Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive shall be eligible to earn a “Targeted Annual Management Bonus” as set forth on Exhibit A to this Agreement as amended from time to time, as determined in the sole
discretion of the Compensation Committee. 
 (c) Benefits/ PTO. During the Executive’s employment with the Company, the
Executive will be eligible to participate in the employee benefit programs and PTO generally in effect for the Company’s employees at Executive’s level in the same geographic location, subject to and in accordance with the terms and
conditions for such programs as they may be instituted, modified, or terminated from time to time by the Company in its sole discretion. 

(d) Equity Awards. 

(i) Annual Equity Awards. Executive will be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual equity grant program based on
performance metrics, which may include both Company and personal performance metrics, commencing with the 2021 performance year (with such grants to be issued in 2022). All equity grants are subject to the approval of the Board’s Compensation
Committee. 
 (e) Tax/Financial Planning Reimbursement. The Company will reimburse Executive up to $5,000.00
annually for financial and tax planning services expenses incurred by Executive, subject to documentation provided in accordance with Company expense reimbursement policies in effect from time to time. 

5. Withholdings; Taxes; Indemnification. All payments to Executive under this Agreement shall be reduced by (a) any tax or
other amounts required to be withheld under applicable law, and (b) other amounts authorized by Executive. Executive is advised to consult with Executive’s own tax professional regarding all tax matters related to compensation and benefits
from the Company including the tax treatment of any option grants and the exercise of such options. The Executive shall be responsible for all federal, state and local taxes, penalties, interest, or fines that are imposed on Executive under
applicable law as a result of this Agreement, including Executive’s personal taxes on payments received by Executive under this Agreement, and the Company and its employees, accountants, attorneys, and affiliates shall have no obligation or
liability to Executive related to any such taxes, penalties, interest, or fines. Executive represents and acknowledges that in signing this Agreement, Executive does not rely, and has not relied, upon any representation or statement made by the
Company or by any of the Company’s employees, officers, agents, managers, directors or attorneys with regard to the subject matter, basis or effect of this Agreement or otherwise including regarding the tax consequences to Executive resulting
from the payments, benefits, or other consideration provided under the Agreement. 

  
 2 

 6. Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company agrees to pay or to reimburse the
Executive for all reasonable, ordinary, necessary, and properly documented business-related travel, cell phone expenses, for Company business, entertainment, and other expenses, incurred by the Executive in the performance of the Executive’s
services hereunder, subject to and in accordance with Company policies in effect at the time the expense was incurred. The Executive shall promptly submit vouchers and itemized receipts for all expenses for which reimbursement is sought. 

7. Conflicts of Interest. During the Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive is expected to devote all of
Executive’s business time and efforts to Executive’s services to the Company. Consistent with that, Executive shall not: (a) engage, directly or indirectly, in any business transaction with the Company or any of its affiliates without
the prior written approval of the Board, or (b) knowingly engage in any conduct intended to or reasonably expected to harm the interests of the Company or its affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may engage in personal
investment and estate planning activities, charitable work and community affairs, including service on non-profit boards of directors, and service on for profit boards of directors with the pre-approval of the General Counsel, that do not materially interfere with Executive’s duties for the Company, so long as such activities do not conflict with, or interfere with the performance of,
Executive’s duties or obligations to the Company, as determined in the sole judgment of the CEO or Board, and in each case subject to the terms and conditions of Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below). 

8. Protection of Confidential Information. As a condition to employment with the Company, Executive shall execute a Confidential
Information, Inventions, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit B, if Executive has not already signed such agreement
(such agreement, as executed by Executive, the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement is supported by good and valuable consideration, including but
not limited to, Executive’s continued employment with the Company. 
 9. Reasonableness of Restrictions. Executive has
carefully read and considered the provisions of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement and, having done so, agrees that the restrictions set forth herein are fair, reasonable, and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business
interests, including goodwill with its customers and employees and its confidential and trade secret information. In addition, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement do not
unreasonably restrict Executive from earning a living should Executive’s employment with the Company end. Thus, Executive agrees not to contest the general validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement in any
forum. The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the end of the Executive’s employment and shall be in addition to any restrictions imposed upon Executive by statute, at common law, or other agreements. The Confidentiality Agreement shall
continue to be enforceable regardless of whether there is any dispute between the Parties concerning any alleged breach of this Agreement. As a result of Executive’s educational background, prior work experience, and Executive’s employment
and position with the Company, Executive possesses general skills and knowledge enabling Executive, if need be, to pursue profitable work in businesses not competitive with the Company’s business. 

  
 3 

 10. Suspensions. If Executive is temporarily prohibited from participating in
any of the affairs of the Company by a regulatory, governmental, court or administrative notice, order, or similar action under federal or state law, then the CEO or Board may unilaterally suspend all of the Company’s obligations under this
Agreement during the pendency of such prohibition. Also, if the Company or the Board is investigating any potential Termination For Cause or other potential serious misconduct by Executive, the Company or the Board may place Executive on temporary
leave with pay and benefits, temporarily exclude Executive from any premises of the Company or its affiliates, and/or temporarily reassign Executive’s duties during the pendency of such investigation, and such actions shall not be deemed a
constructive or actual termination of Executive’s employment and shall not give rise to Executive to assert a Termination for Good Reason. 

11. Final Compensation Regardless of Reason for End of Employment. Following the termination of Executive’s
employment for any reason, Executive or, in the event of Executive’s death, Executive’s estate, shall be entitled to: (a) any earned but unpaid Base Salary earned and payable during the Executive’s employment with the Company
through the last date of employment; (b) any vested 401(k) and any other vested benefits with the Company, if any, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable 401(k) plan; (c) reimbursement of reasonable business expenses
incurred by Executive during Executive’s employment with the Company that are due to Executive in accordance with this Agreement and Company’s written expense reimbursement policy; (d) earned but unpaid bonuses set forth in this
Agreement subject to the written terms and conditions applicable to such bonuses; and (e) any other amounts required to be paid to Executive or Executive’s estate under applicable law (collectively, the “Accrued
Amounts”). Otherwise, except as set forth in this Agreement, Executive and/or Executive’s estate, as applicable, shall not be entitled to receive under this Agreement any additional compensation, payments, bonuses, severance pay,
equity interests, stock, consideration or benefits of any kind from the Company or any affiliate of the Company upon or following Executive’s last day of employment with the Company. 

12. Severance. 
 (a)
Eligibility. Subject to the terms in this Section and provided: (i) Executive’s employment with the Company ends due to “Termination Without Cause” (as defined below), “Termination for Good Reason” (as
defined below) or due to Executive’s death or Disability (as defined below) (a “Qualifying Termination”); (ii) Executive continues to abide by the Confidentiality Agreement and the post-employment provisions of this
Agreement; and (iii) Executive (or Executive’s estate, in the case of Executive’s death) timely executes and delivers (and does not revoke) a full and general release (the “Release”) of any
and all claims that Executive has or may have against the Company or its affiliates and such entities’ past and then current officers, directors, owners, managers, members, agents and employees relating to all matters, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Company in its sole discretion such that the Release becomes fully and irrevocably effective within sixty (60) days following the date of the Qualifying Termination (such 60-day
period, the “Release Period”), then the Company will provide Executive with certain additional benefits as set forth in Section 12(b)(i) (“Severance”).

  
 4 

 
The Company agrees to provide a form of the Release to the Executive (or Executive’s estate, in the case of Executive’s death) promptly following the date of the Qualifying Termination,
and an in any event within seven (7) days thereafter. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Release is not timely executed and returned to the Company, or if the Release is subsequently revoked by Executive, such that the Release does not become
fully and irrevocably effective within sixty (60) days following the date of the Qualifying Termination, Executive will not be entitled to any Severance. 

(b) Severance. 

(i) If Executive meets eligibility requirements set forth in this Agreement, Executive shall be paid or provided Severance as follows: 

(1) continued payment of Executive’s Base Salary (at the rate in effect at the end of the Executive’s employment with the Company)
for twelve (12) months, or if such Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Protection Period (defined below) (such a Qualifying Termination during the Change in Control Protection Period, a “Transaction
Qualifying Termination”), then for eighteen (18) months (the “Severance Pay”); provided, however, that (i) amounts shall accrue with accrued amounts paid on the first regularly
scheduled payroll date after the Release becomes irrevocably effective; and (ii) notwithstanding clause (i) to the contrary, if the Release Period spans two calendar years amounts will accrue until the later of (and then be paid
on) (x) the first regularly scheduled payroll date in the second calendar year, and (y) the first regularly scheduled payroll date after the Release becomes irrevocably effective; 

(2) if the Qualifying Termination is a Transaction Qualifying Termination, then Executive’s
pro-rated Targeted Annual Management Bonus assuming achievement of 100% of Target, paid when Targeted Annual Management Bonuses are paid to other officers for the fiscal year in which the Transaction
Qualifying Termination occurs, but in no event prior to January 1 of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the Transaction Qualifying Termination occurs or prior to December of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the
Transaction Qualifying Termination occurs; 
 (3) subject to Executive electing to continue medical benefits for Executive and his or her
eligible dependents under applicable law (i.e., COBRA benefits), reimbursement for the premiums Executive pays to continue such benefits for the duration of the Severance Pay or, if earlier, for the duration of Executive’s COBRA coverage;
provided, however, if such reimbursement would result in fines or penalties to the Company (as reasonably determined by the Board), then no amounts will be paid or reimbursed under this clause (3); and 

  
 5 

 (4) notwithstanding the terms and conditions of the applicable equity plan and the
applicable equity plan award agreement, and subject to applicable law, (A) with respect to any issued and outstanding option awards that were issued to Executive prior to the date hereof, in the event of Qualifying Termination, then any such
option awards that vest subject solely to continued service will vest as to all of the covered shares of Company common stock, (B) with respect to any other equity awards (other than the options in the foregoing clause (A) that vest as to
all of the covered shares), (I) in the event of Qualifying Termination (other than Transaction Qualifying Termination), then the Executive’s issued and outstanding option awards and restricted stock unit awards or any other equity awards that,
in each case, vest subject solely to continued service, will vest with respect to the covered shares (or units) otherwise scheduled to vest in the subsequent twelve (12) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, and (II) if
the Qualifying Termination is a Transaction Qualifying Termination, then the Executive’s issued and outstanding option awards and restricted stock unit awards and any other equity awards that, in each case, vest subject solely to continued
service, will vest as to all of the covered shares of Company common stock. The Executive’s stock option and restricted stock unit and any other equity awards shall otherwise remain subject to the terms and condition as reflected in the
applicable award agreement. 
 (ii) The Severance specified in the foregoing clause (i) shall be in lieu of and replace
Executive’s right to severance under any other Company agreement, plan, or program. 
 (c) Definitions. For purposes of
this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meaning set forth below. 
 (i) Change in Control.
“Change in Control” shall mean a Transfer of Control as defined in the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, the closing of the Company’s initial public

 (ii) Change in Control Protection Period. “Change in Control
Protection Period” shall mean that period beginning three (3) months prior to a Change in Control and ending eighteen (18) months after the Change in Control. 

(iii) Disability. “Disability” means a disability that entitles Executive to benefits
under the Company long-term disability plan applicable to Executive or, in the absence of such a plan, a disability that would reasonably be expected to result in Executive’s inability to perform the essential elements of his or her duties for
a period of at least six (6) months even with reasonable accommodations, as reasonably determined by the Board. 

  
 6 

 (iv) Termination For Cause. “Termination For
Cause” or “Cause” means the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment with the Company as the result of any one or more of the following: 

 

	 	(1)	 Executive’s theft, fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty, or misappropriation of Company property, funds,

Cause” will be made by the Company in its sole discretion. “Termination For Cause” shall not include or be predicated upon any act or omission by the Executive which is taken or made either (a) at the direction of the CEO or the
Board; (b) pursuant to the advice of the Company’s counsel; or (c) to comply with a lawful court order, directive from a federal state or local government agency or industry regulatory authority. 

(v) Termination Without Cause. “Termination Without Cause” or “Without
Cause” means the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other than Executive’s death, Executive’s Disability, Termination For Cause or Executive’s resignation (for

anywhere located more than 50 miles from Executive’s current primary office location, except for required travel on the Company’s business and except to the extent the parties have specifically contemplated an alternative arrangement in
writing (e.g., travel to the Company’s headquarters for specified periods or time) or a relocation (whether now or in the immediate future); provided, 

  
 7 

 
however, that a requirement that Executive return to the office following a period pursuant to which Executive was permitted to “work from home” shall not be treated as a change in
Executive’s current primary office location so long as Executive’s primary office location in connection with a requirement to “return to the office” is either (x) within 50 miles of the location prior to Executive being
permitted to work from home, or (y) is within 50 miles of Executive’s primary residence; or (iv) the failure by a successor to the Company to assume this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the events described in clauses
(i) through (iv) above shall not constitute a Termination for Good Reason unless (A) Executive has delivered a written notice of Termination for Good Reason to the Company within 60 days of the occurrence of the event, which notice sets
forth in reasonable detail the basis for Executive’s claim that Good Reason exists and (B) the Company fails to cure such event or circumstance within the 30 day period following receipt of such notice of Termination for Good Reason
whereupon Executive’s employment shall be terminated. 
 13. Tax Provisions. 

(a) Section 409A Compliance. 

(i) It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement shall either be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (including the Treasury regulations and other published guidance relating thereto) (“Code Section 409A”) so as not to
subject the Executive to payment of any interest or additional tax imposed under Code Section 409A. To the extent that any amount payable under this Agreement would trigger the additional tax, penalty or interest imposed by Code
Section 409A, this Agreement shall be modified to avoid such additional tax, penalty or interest yet preserve (to the nearest extent reasonably possible) the intended benefit payable to the Executive. In no event shall the Company, any member
of the Board, or any employee, agent or other service provider have any liability to the Executive for any tax, fine or penalty associated with any failure to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed as a guarantee of any particular tax treatment to the Executive. Executive shall be solely responsible for the tax consequences with respect to all amounts payable under this Agreement, and in no event shall the Company have any
responsibility or liability if this Agreement does not meet any applicable requirements of Code Section 409A. The provisions of this Section 13 shall apply to all payments under this Agreement, notwithstanding any contrary provision
herein. 
 (ii) To the extent a payment or benefit is nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, a termination of
employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from
service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from
service.” For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment
under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall 

  
 8 

 
be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. If
Executive is deemed on the date of a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) to be a “specified employee” (within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code and
determined using any identification methodology and procedure selected by the Company from time to time, or, if none, the default methodology and procedure specified under Code Section 409A), then with regard to any payment or the provision of
any benefit that is “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and which is paid as a result of Executive’s “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or
provided prior to the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (B) the date of the Executive’s death (the
“Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this clause (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the
absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. If
any payment or benefit subject to Section 409A is contingent on the delivery of a release by the Executive and could occur in either of two calendar years, the payment will occur in the later year. 

(iii) With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or
in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange
for another benefit; (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided, that the foregoing clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b)
of the Internal Revenue Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect; and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following
the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. 
 (b) Section 280G. If any payment or benefit Executive
would receive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, including accelerated vesting of any equity compensation (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of
Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be reduced to the Reduced
Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and
including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in
Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or
benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order: (A) cash payments shall be reduced first and in reverse

  
 9 

 
chronological order such that the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced; and
(B) accelerated vesting of stock awards shall be cancelled/reduced next and in the reverse order of the date of grant for such stock awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted stock awards will be reduced first), with full-value
awards reversed before any stock option or stock appreciation rights are reduced; and (C) employee benefits shall be reduced last and in reverse chronological order such that the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the
event triggering such excise tax will be the first benefit to be reduced. In no event will Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. The Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm to make
the determinations required hereunder and perform the foregoing calculations. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder. Any good faith determinations of the
accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive. 
 14. Certain Consequences of
Breach by Executive. 
 (a) Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s breach of the Confidentiality Agreement would
result in irreparable damage and continuing injury to the Company. Therefore, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to seek an injunction from a court of competent
jurisdiction enjoining Executive from committing any violation or threatened violation of the Confidentiality Agreement without posting of bond. All remedies available to the Company by reason of a breach by Executive of the provisions of this
Agreement are cumulative, none is exclusive, and all remedies may be exercised concurrently or consecutively at the Company’s option. 

(b) If Executive is found in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have breached the Confidentiality Agreement in an
intentional and material respect, Executive shall immediately refund to the Company, upon the Company’s demand, any Severance Pay already paid to Executive pursuant to this Agreement beyond the first $5,000 (gross) in Severance Pay (the
“Release Consideration”), and Executive shall forfeit at the time of such breach the right to any Severance Pay pursuant to this Agreement beyond the Release Consideration. Executive agrees that if Executive
executed a Release pursuant to this Agreement, such Release shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any repayment/forfeiture of Severance Pay under this subsection and that the Release Consideration is good and sufficient consideration
for the Release. 
 15. Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that: (i) the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which
Executive is bound; (ii) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, noncompetition or nonsolicitation agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity besides the Company and (iii) upon the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. EXECUTIVE HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND REPRESENTS THAT

  
 10

THAT EXECUTIVE FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED HEREIN. 
 16. Assignment. This Agreement may not be
assigned or delegated by Executive. The Company shall have the right to assign or transfer this Agreement to any affiliated entity or any successor to all or part of the business and/or assets of the Company, and Executive irrevocably consents to
any such assignment or transfer. As used in this Agreement, the “Company” shall mean the Company as defined above, but if this Agreement is assigned or transferred to any affiliated entity or to successor as
allowed by this Section then the “Company” shall mean the entity to which this Agreement is so assigned or transferred. 

17. Applicable Law, Exclusive Venue, Consent to Jurisdiction, Mandatory Mediation. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina without regard to any conflict-of-law principles. Moreover, any litigation under this Agreement
shall be brought by either party exclusively in federal or state courts in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. As such, the Parties irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the courts in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina (whether federal or
state) for all disputes related to this Agreement and irrevocably consent to service via nationally recognized overnight carrier, without limiting other service methods allowed by applicable law. Except with regard to an action to enforce the
restrictive covenants or confidentiality provisions set out in the Confidentiality Agreement, prior to submitting any controversy, claim or dispute to any court or administrative agency, the Parties agree to seek to resolve their dispute through non-binding mediation; which mediation shall be conducted on or before a date 90 days from the date one party provides the other with written notice of the existence of a dispute. The mediation shall be conducted in
accordance with the rules governing mediations in the Superior Court of the General Court of Justice of the State of North Carolina with the parties to bear their respective costs and to split the cost of the mediator unless otherwise agreed in the
mediation. The mediation shall be held in Charlotte, North Carolina. 
 18. Severability. The terms of this Agreement,
including paragraph subparts, are severable, and if any part or subpart is found to be unenforceable, the other terms shall remain in full force and effect and are valid and enforceable. 

19. Cooperation. During and after Executive’s employment, Executive shall cooperate fully with the Company in the defense or
prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against or on behalf of the Company that relate to events or occurrences that transpired while Executive was employed by the Company. Executive’s full
cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel for the Company to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually
convenient times. During and after Executive’s employment, Executive also shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any investigation or review conducted by any federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such
investigation or review relates to events or occurrences that transpired while Executive was employed by the Company. The Company shall reimburse Executive for any reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses lost in connection with his performance of obligations under this Agreement following the termination of his employment with the Company. 

  
 11 

 20. Modification; Waiver; Construction; Counterparts. No modification,
termination, or attempted waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon either party unless reduced to writing and signed for by both Parties (for the Company, by a duly authorized Company officer). This Agreement shall be
construed according to a plain reading of its terms and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision in this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to any Section
refers to the corresponding Section of this Agreement. The word “including” in this Agreement means “including without limitation”. Any number of counterparts of this Agreement may be signed and delivered, each of which shall be
considered an original and all of which, together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 EXHIBIT A 

Annual Bonus: 
 The Targeted Annual
Management Bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) is targeted towards achieving the Company’s revenue targets, strategic initiative objectives, gross margin targets, and certain management objectives (MBO) for the applicable calendar year,
all as set and determined by the Company and the Board/Compensation Committee (each a “Target” and collectively the “Targets”). 

If 100% of all Targets are reached, the Annual Bonus shall be in an amount equal to eighty five percent (85%) of Executive’s Base Salary
for the applicable calendar year, less deductions and withholdings required by law. A portion of the Annual Bonus, such portion determined in the Company and the Board/Compensation Committee’s discretion, can be earned if 80% of each of the
Targets is reached. The Company’s Annual Bonus plan typically contains a maximum opportunity of 200% of the Annual Bonus can be earned based on the attainment of stretch objectives set by the Company in its sole discretion. The Targeted Annual
Management Bonus will be paid following the end of each fiscal year subject to Executive’s continued employment through payment and is not earned and is forfeited if Executive is not employed with the Company on the applicable payment date.

 These payout percentages are subject to annual Board or Compensation Committee review and approval. The terms of the Annual Bonus program
are subject to modification from time to time in the Company’s reasonable discretion. The Executive’s plan objectives and Executive’s achievement of those objectives shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Company and the
Board of Directors or Compensation Committee. Any future “additional” bonuses shall be in the sole discretion and approval of the Company and the Board/Compensation Committee as may be determined from time to time.
