 (a) Base Salary. In this exempt full-time position, you will earn an annual base salary of $300,000.00 (prorated for any partial pay period that occurs during the term of your employment), subject
to applicable tax withholdings. Your salary will be payable pursuant to the Company’s regular payroll policy. 
 (b)

incurred by you while traveling for or on behalf of the Company, and any and all other necessary. customary or usual expenses (including entertainment) incurred by you for or on behalf of the Company in the

 
normal course of business, as determined to be appropriate by the Company. It is your responsibility to review and comply with the Company’s business expense reimbursement policies.

time to time, to receive certain discretionary bonuses, subject to the terms and conditions of any bonus or incentive compensation plan that the Company adopts at a later time. Nothing hereunder shall be construed or interpreted as a guarantee for
you to receive any bonuses or incentive compensation. 
 3. Employee Benefits. You will be eligible to participate
in any employee benefit plans or programs maintained or established by the Company including, but not limited to, paid time off, group health benefits, life insurance, dental plan, and other benefits made available generally to employees, subject to
eligibility requirements and the applicable terms and conditions of the plan or program in question and the determination of any committee administering such plan or program. 

4. Stock Option; Change of Control. In connection with the commencement of your employment, the Company
will recommend that the Board of Directors grant you a stock option (the “Option”) to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock with an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of the grant.
Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Option shares will vest and become exercisable on the twelve (12) month anniversary of your Vesting Commencement Date (as defined in the Stock Option Agreement to be executed between you and the Company),
and the remaining Option shares will vest monthly thereafter in increments of one forty-eighth (1/48th) per month following the first anniversary of your Vesting Commencement Date, subject to the acceleration provision set forth in this Section. Vesting will, of course, depend on your continued
employment with the Company. The Option will be an incentive stock option to the maximum extent allowed by applicable tax codes and regulations, and will be subject to the terms of the Company’s 2004 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
and the Stock Option Agreement between you and the Company, including but not limit to a “lock-up” provision, repurchase rights and a right of first refusal in favor of the Company. You understand that issuing the Option is expressly
contingent on the Board’s approval and receipt of a fully executed Stock Option Agreement and any related documents, as may be requested by the Company. 
 In the event that you are involuntarily terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below under Section 6) or if there is a Constructive Termination (as defined below in this Section 4),
which in either case occurs within the twelve (12) month period immediately following a Change of Control (as defined below in this Section 4), then 50% of your then unvested Option shares shall vest. Before any acceleration of vesting
shall occur under this Agreement you shall execute and deliver to the Company, without revoking the same, a general release in the form prescribed by the Company (or the surviving entity), which release shall include, without limitation, an
agreement by you (i) to release all known and unknown claims that you may then have against the Company, its successors, and persons affiliated with the Company; and (ii) not to prosecute any legal action or other proceeding based upon any
of such claims. 

  
 2 

 For all purposes under this Agreement, “Constructive Termination” shall mean your
resignation from the Company after the occurrence of any of the following events which take place within the twelve (12) month period immediately following a Change of Control, absent your consent: 

 

	 	(a)	a material reduction in your base salary, which is not part of a broader cost-cutting measure affecting some other executives of the Company; or

  

	 	(b)	a relocation of your principal place of employment by more than fifty (50) miles; or 

 

	 	(c)	failure to appoint you as the surviving entity’s Chief Financial Officer; provided that, you remain with the Company (or its successor) and you serve, without
interruption, in any capacity so selected by the Company (or its successor) for at least a period of six (6) months following a Change of Control (“Transitional Period”) (during which time you will continue your regular monthly
vesting without acceleration at such time). It being expressly understood and agreed that you must serve the Company (or its successor) in any such capacity during the Transitional Period as described under this subsection (c) in order to be
eligible to accelerate vesting of your Options, pursuant to the remaining terms of this Section 4. For avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the foregoing triggers under subsections (a) or (b) or (c) above will each provide
you an independent basis for a Constructive Termination. 

 You understand and agree that within thirty (30) days after the
initial existence of any of the foregoing events under (a), (b) or (c) above, you shall promptly provide notice to the Company with an opportunity, of not less than thirty (30) days in the case of (a) and (b) or six
(6) months in the case of (c), to effectuate a cure for such asserted claim of “Constructive Termination”. If the Company effectuates a cure within the applicable time period then you will not be able to resign based on a Constructive
Termination. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean: 

i. the consummation of a merger, reorganization or consolidation of Company with any other corporation in which the Company or the
shareholders of the Company receive cash or securities or other property, other than a merger, reorganization, or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent
(either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of Company or such surviving entity outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation; or 
 ii. the consummation of the sale or disposition of all or substantially all
of the Company’s assets, in exchange for which the Company or the shareholders of the Company receive cash or securities or other property.

 5. At-Will Employment. Your employment with the Company will be on an “at
will” basis, meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time without notice and for any reason or no reason, without further obligation or liability. Further, your continued employment as well as your
participation in any benefit programs does not assure you of continuing employment with the Company. The Company also reserves the right to modify or amend the terms of your employment, compensation and benefit plans at any time for any reason. This
policy of at-will employment is the entire agreement as to the duration of your employment and may only be modified in an express written agreement signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. 

6. Severance on Termination. 
 If your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without “Cause” (as hereinafter defined), you will be eligible to receive a severance payment equal to three (3) months of
your then current base salary excluding bonuses and other compensations (“Severance Amount”). The foregoing severance package shall be conditioned on you executing and not revoking a valid release of claims and separation agreement,
in a form prescribed by the Company. The Severance Amount shall be paid in three (3) equal installments after Company’s receipt of a signed release/separation Agreement from you, with the first installment to begin within fifteen
(15) days of such date; provided that, all your severance benefits are and shall remain subject to Section 7 below, notwithstanding any terms to the contrary. 
 For purposes of this agreement, “Cause” shall mean (i) a failure or a refusal to comply in any material respect with the reasonable policies, standards or regulations of Company;
(ii) determination by Company’s Chief Executive Officer that your performance is unsatisfactory, provided that, the Company provides you a fifteen (15) day cure period to remedy your nonperformance; (iii) unprofessional,
unethical or fraudulent conduct or conduct that materially discredits Company or is materially detrimental to the reputation, character or standing of Company; (iv) dishonest conduct or a deliberate attempt to do an injury to Company;
(v) your material breach of this Agreement or any breach of confidentiality or proprietary information agreements with the Company, including, without limitation, theft of Company’s proprietary information; (vi) an unlawful or
criminal act which would reflect badly on Company in Company’s reasonable judgment; (vii) adverse economic circumstances of Company; (viii) absence from work without an approved leave; or (ix) death or disability (whether due to
illness, disability or otherwise; provided however, that you shall be entitled to any benefits or reasonable accommodation required by law). 
 7. Section 409A of the Code. The following rules shall apply with respect to distribution of the payments and benefits, if any, to be provided to you upon termination of your
employment: 
 (a) Prohibition on Acceleration or Deferral of Payments. Neither you nor the Company shall have the right
to accelerate or defer the delivery of any payments or benefits that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)
(together with the Department of Treasury regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder, “Section 409A”), except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A. 

  
 4 

 (b) Separation from Service. Any payments or benefits that constitute
“nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A under the Agreement which are designated as payable upon your termination of employment (other than accrued obligations which must be paid upon such termination
under applicable law) (“Severance”) shall, subject to Section 7(c) below, be payable only upon your “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from
Service”). Severance shall be payable at such objectively determinable time or times as are specified in this Agreement. 
 (c) Specified Employee. If, as of the date of your Separation from Service, the Company determines, in its sole judgment that you are not a “specified employee” (within the meaning of
Section 409A), then the payments and benefits shall be made on the dates and terms set forth in Section 6 above or otherwise specified in the Company’s benefit plans. If, however, as of the date of your Separation from Service, the
Company determines, in its sole judgment, that you are a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, then: 
 (i) Any payments and benefits that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A that are payable to you in connection with your Separation from Service
and due under your Agreement or the Company benefit plans that, in accordance with the dates and terms set forth therein, will in all circumstances, regardless of when the Separation from Service occurs, be paid within the Short-Term Deferral Period
(as hereinafter defined) shall be treated as a short-term deferral within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) to the maximum extent permissible under Section 409A. For purposes of this Amendment, the
“Short-Term Deferral Period” means the period ending on the later of the 15th day of the third month following the end of your tax year in which the Separation from Service occurs and the 15th day of the third month following the
end of the Company’s tax year in which the Separation from Service occurs; and 
 (ii) Any payments and benefits that
constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A that are payable to you in connection with your Separation from Service and due under your Agreement or the Company’s benefit plans that is not
paid within the Short-Term Deferral Period and that would, absent this subsection, be paid within the six-month period following your Separation from Service from the Company shall not be paid until the date that six months and one day after such
Separation from Service (or, if earlier, your death), with any such installments that are required to be delayed being accumulated during the six-month period and paid in a lump sum on the date that is six months and one day following your
Separation from Service and any subsequent installments, if any, being paid in accordance with the dates and terms set forth in your Agreement or the Company’s benefit plans; provided, however, that the preceding provisions of this sentence
shall not apply to any payments and benefits if and to the maximum extent that that such payments and benefits are deemed to be paid under a separation pay plan that does not provide for a deferral of compensation by reason of the application of
Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (relating to separation pay upon an involuntary Separation from Service) or Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v) (relating to reimbursements and certain other separation payments). Any payments or benefits
that qualify for the exception under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) must be paid no later than the last day of the second taxable year following the taxable year in which the Separation from Service occurs. 

  
 5 

 (d) Installments. Your right to receive any installment payments under this
Agreement, including without limitation any continuation salary payments that are payable on Company payroll dates, shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all
times be considered a separate and distinct payment as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii). 

(e) Release. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Agreement, if payment of any amounts or the provision of any
benefits upon the your Separation from Service are conditioned upon your execution of a release of claims or similar instrument or agreement (a “Release”), then any such payments or benefits shall be paid or shall commence payment,
as applicable, subject to Section 7(c) above, no later than sixty (60) days after the date you incur a Separation from Service from the Company with the exact date of payment or commencement within the sixty (60) day period to be
determined in the sole discretion of the Company. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any such amounts or provide any such benefits unless you execute and do not revoke the Release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the
obligation to pay such amounts and provide such benefits if you execute and do not revoke the Release after sixty (60) days following the date you incur a Separation from Service from the Company to the extent permitted under Treas. Reg.
Section 1.409A-3(g) relating to disputed payments. 
 (f) Construction. To the extent applicable, this Agreement
shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that, notwithstanding this Amendment, the Company determines in good faith that any compensation or benefits
payable under this Agreement may not be either exempt from or compliant with Section 409A, the Company may adopt such amendments to the Agreement or adopt other policies or procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with
retroactive effective), or take any other commercially reasonable actions necessary or appropriate (i) to preserve the intended tax treatment of the compensation and benefits payable hereunder and/or preserve the economic benefits of such
compensation and benefits, and/or (ii) to exempt the compensation and benefits payable hereunder from Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A and thereby avoid the application of penalty taxes thereunder;
provided, however, that this Section 7(f) does not, and shall not be construed so as to, create any obligation on the part of the Company to adopt any such amendments, policies or procedures or to take any other such actions.
Nothing contained herein will allow the Company, without your consent. to adopt amendments to the Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures which would prevent you from receiving your severance payments as soon as possible under
Section 409A (subject to your execution and non-revocation of a Release); provided, however, in no event shall such severance payments take place earlier than as required under the Agreement. 

(g) Obligations for Taxes. You expressly agree and acknowledge that if, notwithstanding this Agreement, any taxes are imposed
under Section 409A in respect of any compensation or benefits payable to you, whether in connection with the Agreement or otherwise, then (i) the payment of such taxes shall be solely your responsibility and (ii) neither the Company,
its affiliated entities nor any of their respective past or present directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents shall have any liability for any such taxes.
