Executive and the Company are collectively referred to as the “Parties.”

A.           WHEREAS, Executive is currently employed by the Company as its Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing and is expected to make major contributions to the short- and long-term profitability, growth and financial strength of the Company;

 

B.           WHEREAS, the Company wishes to provide this as additional inducement for the Executive to remain in the ongoing employ of the Company;

 

C.           WHEREAS, the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to provide the Executive with an incentive to continue his employment and to maximize the value of the Company in the future for the benefit of its shareholders; and

 

D.           WHEREAS, in order to provide the Executive with enhanced financial security and sufficient encouragement to remain with the Company, the Board believes that it is imperative to provide the Executive with certain employment terms and severance benefits.

 

AGREEMENT

 

In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and the continued employment of Executive by the Company, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1.           Revocation of All Previous Agreements.  The Parties agree that this Agreement operates to revoke and replace all previous agreements relating to Executive’s employment by the Company.

 

2.   Employment.  The Company hereby agrees to continue employing Executive.  Executive hereby agrees to accept such continuing employment, and agrees to continue performing services for the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

3.           Term of Agreement.  The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until December 31, 2015; provided, however, that

 

(a)           if the payment of Severance Benefits has been triggered pursuant to this Agreement, the Term shall expire on the date that all obligations of the Parties hereto under this Agreement have been satisfied;

 

(b)           if a Change of Control has occurred, the Term shall not expire until the later of (A) the first anniversary of the Effective Date, or (B) the last day of the thirteenth (13th) month following the close of a Change of Control (unless Severance Benefits are triggered prior to such time) or

 

(c)           if Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause or Executive voluntarily terminates employment, then the Term shall expire as of the date of such termination.

 

(d)           the Term shall expire upon Executive’s death, if it occurs prior to December 31, 2015.

 

  

  

  

4.           Position and Duties.

 

(a)           Duties.  During his employment by the Company, Executive shall serve as a full-time employee.  Employee’s primary responsibilities shall be to serve as Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing.  The Company may make and enforce any reasonable terms and conditions of employment not contrary to this Agreement, which also shall govern the employment of Employee.

 

(b)           No Conflicting Duties.  Executive shall devote his entire productive time, ability, and attention to the operations of the Company during his employment.  Executive hereby confirms that he is under no contractual commitments inconsistent with his obligations set forth in this Agreement, and that during his employment by the Company, he will not render or perform services, or enter into any contract to do so, for any other corporation, firm, entity or person which are inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

 

(c)           General Obligations.  Executive shall abide by the Company’s policies and procedures.  Executive shall conduct himself in a professional manner at all times when acting as a representative of Company, and in accordance with the highest standards of honesty, integrity, fair dealing, and ethical conduct.  Executive shall do nothing which would be reasonably likely to discredit, dishonor, reflect adversely upon, or in any manner injure the reputation of the Company or impair its goodwill.  Executive shall immediately notify the Board of Directors of any complaint (informal or formal) against Executive or the Company or any legal proceeding, whether criminal, civil, or administrative, brought against Executive or the Company.  Executive shall, immediately upon receipt of any inquiry from the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities regulatory authority, any state insurance department or any other regulatory body, forward a copy of such inquiry to the Board of Directors.

 

(d)           Competitive Activities.  During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, either as an employee, employer, consultant, agent, principal, partner, stockholder, member, manager, officer, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or participate in any business that is in competition in any manner whatsoever with the business of the Company or any Affiliate.  This Agreement shall not be interpreted to prohibit Executive from making passive personal investments or conducting private business affairs if those activities do not materially interfere with the services required under this Agreement.  However, Executive shall not directly or indirectly, acquire, hold, or retain any interest in any business competing with or similar in nature to the business of the Company or any Affiliate.

 

(e)           Hours Worked.  Executive is a managerial employee.  As such, the hours worked by Executive may vary considerably, and will sometimes exceed 40 hours per week.  As an exempt employee, Executive shall not be entitled to additional compensation for hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week.

 

5.           Employment Compensation and Benefits.  During the Term of this Agreement, Executive shall receive the benefits set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

 

6.   Compensation upon Termination.  Executive shall be entitled to the following payments, if any, upon the termination of his employment by the Company.

 

(a)           Resignation.  In the event Executive resigns from the Company voluntarily, Executive shall be entitled to receive Executive’s then current Salary accrued through the effective date of termination, plus accrued but unused paid time off (PTO) hours.

 

(b)           With Cause.  In the event Executive is terminated by the Company for Cause as defined in Paragraph 9(b). The Company shall pay to Executive the current Salary accrued through the effective date of termination, plus accrued but unused PTO.

 

(c)           Without Cause.  In the event Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause as defined in Paragraph 9(b), the Company shall pay to Executive the current Salary accrued through the effective date of termination, accrued but unused PTO, and, subject to compliance with Paragraph 6(d), Executive shall be entitled to the severance benefits set forth in Paragraph 7.

 

  

  

  

 

(d)           Conditions to Receipt of Severance Payments.

 

(i)           Release of Claims.  The receipt of any severance payment or other benefits pursuant to Paragraph 7 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a general release of claims in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Release”), which must be signed no later than the 30th day following the termination of employment allowing the Release to become effective no later than 38 days following the termination of employment (the “Release Deadline”).  If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any rights to severance payments or benefits under Paragraph 7.  No severance payments and benefits under Paragraph 7 will be paid or provided until the Release Deadline, and any such severance payments and benefits otherwise payable between the date of Executive’s termination of employment and the Release Deadline will be paid on the Release Deadline.

 

(ii)           Post-Termination Obligations.  Executive’s receipt of any payments or other benefits pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with the terms of this Agreement which survive the termination of Executive’s employment.

(i)           Six (6) months of Executive’s Base Salary in effect as of the day of such termination, less applicable withholding, payable in a lump sum on the thirtieth (30th) day following the Release Deadline as defined in Paragraph 6(d)(i);

 

(ii)           For a period of up to six (6) months following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall pay, either directly or as a reimbursement to Executive, for Executive’s COBRA-eligible health insurance benefits (medical/dental/vision),  including payments made to an individual plan or pursuant to COBRA or Cal COBRA provided that:

 

	
  

	
(1)

	
The Company’s obligation to pay for health insurance benefits will be limited to a monthly amount not to exceed the monthly amount that the Company had paid for Executive’s health benefits at the time of termination of his employment, provided that:

If such payment is to be made as a reimbursement to Executive rather than as a direct payment to the provider of the health insurance benefits, such payment shall be due within thirty (30) days of receipt of satisfactory proof of Executive’s payment of said amounts;

 

	
  

	
(3)

	
Executive’s entitlement to payment  or reimbursement pursuant to this Paragraph shall terminate upon Executive becoming eligible to participate in an employer-sponsored health plan.

 

(b)           Termination Without Cause in the Context of a Change of Control. Subject to compliance with Paragraph 6(d), in the event that Executive is terminated Without Cause as defined by Paragraph 9(b) during the Term of this Agreement and within six (6) months prior to or within thirteen (13) months after the consummation of a Change in Control as defined by Paragraph 9(c), then Executive shall be entitled to the following Severance Benefits:

(ii)           all stock options granted by the Company to the Executive prior to the Change of Control shall become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of the termination of Executive’s employment to the extent such stock options are outstanding and unvested unexercisable at the time of such termination and all stock held by Executive subject to a right of repurchase by the Company (or its successor) that was purchased by the Executive prior to the Change of Control shall have such right of repurchase lapse with respect to all such shares as of the date of such termination; and

 

(iii)           For a period of up to six (6) months following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall pay, either directly or as a reimbursement to Executive, for Executive’s COBRA-eligible health insurance benefits (medical/dental/vision),  including payments made to an individual plan or pursuant to COBRA or Cal COBRA provided that:

 

	
  

	
(1)

	
The Company’s obligation to pay for health insurance benefits will be limited to a monthly amount not to exceed the monthly amount that the Company had paid for Executive’s health benefits at the time of termination of his employment, provided that:

 

	
  

	
(2)

	
If such payment is to be made as a reimbursement to Executive rather than as a direct payment to the provider of the health insurance benefits, such payment shall be due within thirty (30) days of receipt of satisfactory proof of Executive’s payment of said amounts;

 

	
  

	
(3)

8.   Limitation on Payments.

 

(a)           In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to the Executive (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then, Executive shall have the sole authority to elect (by delivering of printed notice to the Company within twenty (20) days of any termination) whether Executive’s benefits under this Agreement shall be either:

 

(i)           delivered in full, or

 

(ii)           delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax.

 

(b)           Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made in writing by a mutually agreed independent public accounting firm or other independent third party (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section.

For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets (including any parent company to the Company) which executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in this subsection (a) or which becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement by operation of law.

 

(b)           Executive’s Successors. Without the written consent of the Company, Executive shall not assign or transfer this Agreement or any right or obligation under this Agreement to any other person or entity.

    11.   Notices.

 

(a)           General. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered (if to the Company, addressed to its Secretary at the Company’s principal place of business on a non-holiday weekday between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.; if to Executive, via personal service to his last known residence) or when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid.

 

(b)           Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company for Cause or by the Executive as a result of a voluntary resignation or an Involuntary Termination shall be communicated by a notice of termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with this Section. Such notice shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination under the provision so indicated, and shall specify the Termination Date (which shall be not more than 30 days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive to include in the notice any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Involuntary Termination shall waive any right of the Executive hereunder and preclude the Executive from later asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing his rights hereunder.

 

      12.   Code Section 409A. The parties agree to amend this Agreement to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to Executive under Code Section 409A and any temporary or final Treasury Regulations and IRS guidance thereunder.

 

      13.   Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

(a)           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings with respect to such subject matter.

In particular, there is no agreement, express or implied, for any specific period of employment, nor for continuing long-term employment.  In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Company’s policies and procedures, the provisions of this Agreement shall be controlling.

 

  

  

  

(b)           Interpretation. This Agreement shall not be interpreted against a party by virtue of such party’s participation in the drafting of the Agreement or any provisions herein.

 

(c)           Assignment.  This Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, by either party without the written consent of the other party, except that the Company may, without the consent of Executive, assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any corporation, firm or other business entity (i) with or into which the Company may merge or consolidate, (ii) to which the Company may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its assets, or (iii) to any affiliate.  Upon such assignment by the Company, the Company shall obtain the assignee’s written agreement enforceable by Executive to assume and perform, from and after the date of such assignment, the terms, conditions and provisions imposed by this Agreement upon the Company.  After any such assignment by the Company and such written agreement by the assignee, the Company shall be discharged from all further liability hereunder and such assignee shall thereafter be deemed to be the Company for the purposes of all provisions of this Agreement, including this section.

 

(d)           Amendments.  No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless made in writing signed by the parties hereto.

 

(e)           Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than the Executive).

(g)           Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the conflicts of law rules, of the State of California.

 

(h)           Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, which shall remain in full force and effect.

 

(i)           Employment Taxes. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to withholding of applicable income and employment taxes.

 

(j)           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, any one of which need not contain signatures of more than one party, and may be delivered by facsimile or other electronic means, but all of which shall be deemed originals and taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement.

 

(k)           Headings. The headings of the Articles and Sections hereof are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof nor to affect the meaning thereof.

 

(l)           Construction of Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the text of the Agreement and any summary, description or other information regarding the Agreement, the text of the Agreement shall control.
