AGREEMENTS

In consideration of the mutual promises in this Agreement, it is agreed as follows:

1. Termination. Employee agrees that Employee’s employment with the Company
terminates on July 18, 2008.

2. Recitals. The parties hereby acknowledge the correctness and accuracy of the
foregoing recitals.

3. Payment and Other Benefits. Under the terms of Employee’s Employment Agreement
with the Company, including section 6, Employee is entitled to receive a severance payment in the
event her employment is involuntarily terminated. In the absence of this Agreement, the provisions
of Employee’s Employment Agreement would need to be amended by December 31, 2008 to either comply
with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) or qualify for an exception to the
requirements of Section 409A. Effective immediately, Section 6(c) and Section 6(d) of the
Employment Agreement are amended, restated and replaced by the provisions of this Section 3. The
provisions of this Section 3, like the provisions of Section 6(c) and Section 6(d) of the
Employment Agreement, are intended to fit within the short-term deferral exception to Section 409A
as described in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4).

 

 

 

(a) Within ninety (90) days of the receipt of this signed Agreement and expiration of the
revocation period referenced in Section 7 of this Agreement, the Company will tender to Employee a
check for severance pay in the amount of $295,000 (gross, less required and authorized
withholdings).

(b) Within ninety (90) days of the receipt of this signed Agreement and expiration of the
revocation period referenced in Section 7 of this Agreement, and as further consideration, Company
will pay Employee one times the annual target compensation as identified under the 2008 Executive
Incentive Compensation Plan (the “IC Plan”). Identified annual target compensation is equal to
$205,000 (gross, less required and authorized withholdings).

(c) Employee shall also be eligible for outplacement assistance for a period of up to six (6)
months with Lee Hecht Harrison. To receive outplacement assistance, Employee must contact Lee
Hecht Harrison and begin using such assistance within sixty (60) days of termination. The
Company’s provision of outplacement assistance under this Section 3(c) also may be subject to
Section 409A of the Code. The Company intends that the Company’s payment for outplacement services
pursuant to this Section 3(c) will comply with the exception to Section 409A for reimbursements and
certain other separation payments described in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v). Accordingly,
Employee will not incur any expenses in connection with the outplacement services after the
expiration of the six (6) month period described in this Section 3(c) and all reimbursements for
such expenses will be made before December 31, 2009.

4. Acknowledgement of Consideration. Employee understands and agrees that Employee is
receiving the payment and benefits described in Section 3 in exchange for this Agreement and that
the payments and benefits called for by Section 3 exceed those Employee would be entitled to
receive in the absence of this Agreement. The Company will pay Employee wages and accrued and
untaken vacation pay through Employee’s last day of employment without regard to whether Employee
executes this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that she is receiving benefits under this Agreement
and Employee hereby waives any and all benefits which may be due pursuant to Employee’s Employment
Agreement.

5. Release, Representations and Acknowledgments.

(a) Employee understands and agrees that whenever the term “Insight” is used in this
Agreement, it refers to the Company and its parent, subsidiaries and affiliates, and the officers,
directors, shareholders, agents, predecessors, successors, assigns, and current and past employees
of each and all of the foregoing (“Insight”). Employee, for herself and, as applicable, Employee’s
respective agents, attorneys, successors, and assigns, hereby fully, forever, irrevocably, and
unconditionally releases Insight from any and all claims, charges, complaints, liabilities, and
obligations of any nature whatsoever, which Employee may have against Insight, whether now known or
unknown, and whether asserted or unasserted, arising from any event or omission occurring prior to
execution of this Agreement.

 

2

 

Without limiting the foregoing, this release includes any and all claims arising out of or which
could arise out of the employment relationship between Employee and Insight and the termination of
that employment, including but not limited to: (i) any and all claims under Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, Section 1981 of the Civil Rights Act of
1866, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Family Medical Leave Act,
ERISA, COBRA, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Arizona Civil Rights Act,
other state and local civil rights laws, Arizona wage payment laws and any similar laws in other
states; (ii) any and all Executive Orders (governing fair employment practices) which may be
applicable to Insight; and (iii) any other provision or theory of law. This release may be pled as
a complete bar and defense to any claim brought by Employee with respect to the matters released in
this Agreement. This release does not waive claims that may arise after the date this Agreement is
signed.

(b) Employee acknowledges and agrees that the consideration Employee is receiving under this
Agreement is sufficient consideration to support the release of all entities identified in this
section 5, and that said consideration (other than wages and accrued and untaken vacation pay) is
in addition to anything of value to which Employee is already entitled.

(c) Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee is not aware of any facts or circumstances
that could be the basis for a valid claim or charge of discrimination or harassment against
Insight. Employee represents and warrants that there are no administrative charges with government
agencies known to Employee pending against Insight. Employee agrees that Employee has not filed,
or caused to be filed, any claim or charge with any adjudicative body, regulatory body, or agency
arising out of Employee’s employment or the termination of that employment.

(d) Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee has been granted any FMLA leave to which
Employee was entitled and has not been subjected to any discrimination or retaliation for using
FMLA leave.

(e) Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee has received all monies owed Employee for
Employee’s employment with Insight and has not been subjected to any discrimination or retaliation
for raising any issues regarding compensation issues.

6. Review. Employee acknowledges receipt of this Agreement on Employee’s last day of
employment with the Company and has been advised that she has up to forty-five (45) calendar days
from Employee’s last day of Employment to execute and return the Agreement to the Company.
Employee shall not execute the agreement prior to the last day of employment and any execution
prior to such date shall not be valid until the last day of employment. To accept the offer in
this Agreement, Employee must sign and return the Agreement to the Company, within the forty-five
(45) day period, at the following address: Insight, 6820 South Harl Avenue, Tempe, AZ 85823
Attention: Gary Glandon.

7. Revocation. Employee may revoke this Agreement for a period of seven (7) days
after Employee signs it. Employee agrees that if Employee elects to revoke this Agreement,
Employee will notify Gary Glandon at the Company (at the above address) in writing on or before the
expiration of the revocation period. Receipt by the Company of proper and timely notice of
revocation from Employee cancels and voids this Agreement. Provided that Employee does not provide
a notice of revocation, this Agreement will become effective upon expiration of the revocation
period.

8. Return of Company Property. Employee represents that Employee has made a diligent
search and has already returned to the Company all Company documents (in electronic, paper or any
other form as well as all copies thereof) and other Company property that Employee has had in
Employee’s possession at any time, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, drawings,
records, business plans and forecasts, financial information, specifications, computer-recorded
information, tangible property including, but not limited to, computers, entry cards,
identification badges and keys, and any materials of any kind that contain or embody any
proprietary or confidential information of the Company. Employee agrees to make a diligent search
for all such Company property and to return any property not previously returned to the Company
within five (5) days of execution of this Agreement. Employee further agrees to provide to the
Company, within five (5) days of execution of this Agreement, with a computer-useable copy of any
Company confidential or proprietary data, materials or information received, stored, reviewed,
prepared or transmitted on any personal computer, server, or e-mail system, to the extent the same
may be retrieved from such computers, servers and e-mail system, and, then, to delete such Company
confidential or proprietary information from those computers, servers and e-mail systems. The
Company agrees to allow the Employee to retain the laptop computer assigned to her after a review
by the Company and deletion of Company related material by the Company’s internal IT department.
The Company will also permit the Employee to retain her Blackberry device and agrees to cooperate
with the employee in porting the Employee’s Blackberry phone number to an account for which the
Employee, and not the Company, is responsible.

9. Confidentiality. Employee agrees that Employee will keep the terms and fact of
this Agreement confidential. Employee will not disclose the existence of this Agreement or any of
its terms to anyone except Employee’s attorneys or accountants, unless required by law.

10. Fees and Costs. In the event of any litigation arising under this Agreement, the
parties agree that the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees
and costs from the other party.

11. Severability. Should any provision in this Agreement be declared or determined to
be illegal or invalid, the validity of the remaining parts, terms, or provisions shall not be
affected and the illegal or invalid part, term, or provision shall be deemed not to be a part of
this Agreement.

12. Acknowledgement. Employee acknowledges that Employee is herein being advised to
consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement. Employee represents and agrees that
Employee has read and fully understands all of the provisions of this Agreement, and that Employee
is voluntarily entering into this Agreement with a full and complete understanding of all of its
terms. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that Employee has been provided with statistical
data on the persons eligible for the benefits being offered to Employee.

13. Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties,
supersedes all oral negotiations and any prior and other writings with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement and is intended by the parties as the final, complete and exclusive
statement of the terms agreed to by them. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, Employee acknowledges and
agrees that this Agreement does not limit, modify, amend, or supersede, in any way, Employee’s
obligations to abide by any agreement Employee signed with the Insight regarding the treatment of
confidential or proprietary information of Insight and/or containing any restrictive covenants.

14. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Arizona.

15. Amendment. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties and may not be
abandoned, supplemented, changed, or modified in any manner, orally or otherwise, except by an
instrument in writing of concurrent or subsequent date signed by the parties.

16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is and shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of each of the parties.

17. Non-Admission. This Agreement shall not in any way be construed as an admission
by the Company that it has acted wrongfully with respect to Employee, and the Company specifically
denies the commission of any wrongful acts against Employee. Employee acknowledges that Employee

RECITALS

	 	A.	 	Executive is currently employed by Company in the position of Chief People

	 	B.	 	Company and Executive are parties to an Employment Agreement that was effective
February 21, 2005 (the “Original Agreement”).
	 
	 	C.	 	Company and Executive desire to enter into a new employment agreement, the
terms and provisions of which are set forth below.
	 
	 	D.	 	Company and Executive desire and intend for this Agreement to supersede and

(a) Initial Term. Executive shall be employed by Company for the duties set forth in Section
2, below, for a one-year term, commencing as of January 12, 2007 and ending on January 11, 2008
(the “Initial Term”), unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) Renewal Term; Employment Period Defined. On each successive day after the commencement of
the Initial Term, without further action on the part of Company or Executive, this Agreement shall
be automatically renewed for a new one-year term dated effective and beginning upon each such
successive day (a “Renewal Term”); provided, however, that Company may notify Executive, or
Executive may notify Company, at any time, that there shall be no renewal of this Agreement, and in
the event of such notice, the Agreement shall immediately cease to renew and shall terminate
naturally at the end of the then current Renewal Term. No severance or other post-termination
compensation will be due or payable in the event of a termination resulting from non-renewal. The
period of time commencing as of the date hereof and ending on the effective date of the termination
of employment of Executive under this or any successor Agreement shall be referred to as the
“Employment Period.”

2. POSITION AND DUTIES.

(a) Job Duties. Company does hereby employ, engage and hire Executive as its Chief People
Officer, and Executive does hereby accept and agree to such employment, engagement, and hiring.
Executive’s duties and authority during the Employment Period shall be such executive and
managerial duties as the Chief Executive Officer of Company, or Chief Executive Officer’s designee,
shall reasonably determine. Executive will devote full time on behalf of Company, or such lesser amount of time as the Chief Executive Officer, or Chief Executive Officer’s designee, may
determine, reasonable absences because of illness, personal and family exigencies excepted.

(b) Best Efforts. Executive agrees that at all times during the Employment Period Executive
will faithfully, and to the best of Executive’s ability, experience and talents, perform the duties
that may be required of and from Executive and fulfill Executive’s responsibilities hereunder
pursuant to the express terms hereof. Executive’s participation as an officer, director,
consultant or employee of any entity (other than Company) must be disclosed to the Company and the
Board of Directors of Company. Additionally, Executive shall disclose to the Company and the Board
of Directors of Company any interest in a company that is engaged in a Competing Business as
defined in Section 10, below, unless such interest constitutes less than 1% of the issued and
outstanding equity of such company.

(c) Section 16. If, at the time Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason,
Executive is a person designated to file pursuant to Section 16 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, Executive will provide to Company a written representation in a form acceptable to Company
that all reportable pre-termination securities transactions relating to Executive have been
reported.

3. COMPENSATION.

(a) Base Salary. Company shall pay Executive a “Base Salary” in consideration for Executive’s
services to Company, payable as nearly as possible in equal semi-monthly installments or in such
other installments as are customary from time to time for Company’s executives. The Base Salary
may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the procedures established by Company for
salary adjustments for executives, provided that the Base Salary shall not be reduced.

(b) Incentive Compensation. Executive shall be eligible for an incentive bonus pursuant to
one or more incentive compensation plans established by the Company from time to time (each, an
“Incentive Compensation Plan”). The amount of such incentive bonus, if any, shall be based on the
extent to which Executive or Company, or any combination of Executive, Company and Company’s direct
and indirect subsidiaries, achieve objectives set forth in the Incentive Compensation Plan, or
Incentive Compensation Plans, for the relevant time period. For purposes of this Agreement,
Incentive Compensation Plan, and Incentive Compensation Plans, does not include any employee
benefit, stock option, restricted stock or other equity-based plan, and the benefits under such
plans shall be governed by their respective plan documents.

(c) Incentive and Benefit Plans. Executive will be entitled to participate in those benefit
plans generally provided for Company’s executives in the same or a similar tier of management, in
accordance with the terms of such benefit plans. Additionally, Executive shall be entitled to

to time, including but not limited to, any savings plan, life insurance plan and health insurance
plan, all subject to any restrictions specified in, or amendments made to, such plans.

4. BUSINESS EXPENSES.

Company will reimburse Executive for any and all necessary, customary and usual expenses which
are incurred by Executive on behalf of Company, provided Executive provides Company with receipts
to substantiate the business expense in accordance with Company’s policies or otherwise reasonably
justifies the expense to Company.

5. DEATH OR DISABILITY.

(a) Death. This Agreement shall terminate upon Executive’s death, but Executive’s estate
shall be entitled to receive the Base Salary for ninety (90) days following the date of Executive’s
death. Company shall also pay to Executive’s estate (1) with respect to any Incentive Compensation
Plan with quarterly objectives, the sum of (i) a prorated portion of any incentive compensation to
which Executive would have been entitled (had Executive not died) for the quarter in which
Executive died and (ii) the amount of incentive compensation for the last completed quarter prior
to the date of Executive’s death, plus (2) with respect to any Incentive Compensation Plan with
annual objectives, a prorated bonus for the year in which the Executive died, each to be calculated
as soon as reasonably practicable, allowing Company a sufficient amount of time to calculate such
amount.

(b) Disability. This Agreement shall also terminate in the event of Executive’s “Disability.”
For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means the inability of Executive to perform
Executive’s essential job duties, with or without a reasonable accomodation, for a period of thirty
(30) consecutive days or for sixty (60) days within any period of one-hundred and eighty (180) days
due to a physical or mental injury or illness that occurs while Executive is actively employed by
Company. Any dispute concerning whether Disability has occurred will be determined by a physician
selected by Company. If this Agreement is terminated due to Executive’s Disability, Executive
shall receive the Base Salary for ninety (90) days following the date of termination and (1) with
respect to any Incentive Compensation Plan with quarterly objectives, the sum of (i) a prorated
portion of any incentive compensation to which Executive would have been entitled (had termination
not occurred) for the quarter in which this Agreement is terminated due to Executive’s disability
and (ii) the amount of incentive compensation for the last completed quarter prior to the date of
termination, plus (2) with respect to any Incentive Compensation Plan with annual objectives, a
prorated bonus for the year in which termination occurs, each to be calculated as soon as
reasonably practicable, allowing Company a sufficient amount of time to calculate such amount.

6. TERMINATION BY COMPANY.

(a) Termination for Cause. Company may terminate this Agreement at any time during the
Initial Term or any Renewal Term for “Cause” upon written notice to Executive. If Company
terminates this Agreement for “Cause,” Executive’s Base Salary shall immediately cease, and
Executive shall not be entitled to severance payments, incentive compensation payments or any other
payments or benefits pursuant to this Agreement, except for any vested rights pursuant to any
benefit plans in which Executive participates and any accrued compensation, accrued and unused
vacation pay and similar items. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean the
termination of Executive’s employment by Company for one or more of the following reasons: (1) the
misappropriation (or attempted misappropriation) of any of Company’s funds or property; (2) the
conviction of, or the entering of a guilty plea or plea of no contest with respect to, a felony or misdemeanor which
involves moral turpitude or a fraudulent act; (3) willful or repeated neglect of duties (after
notice and an opportunity to cure); (4) acts of material dishonesty, disloyalty or insubordination
toward Company; (5) violation of Company’s Values or any material policy with respect to Company’s
business or operations; (6) significant and repeated deficiencies with respect to performance
objectives assigned by the Chief Executive Officer of Company (after notice and opportunity to
cure); (7) insolvency of Company; or (8) Executive’s material breach of this Agreement. If
Executive is terminated for Cause, Company shall be obligated to pay Executive only the Base Salary
(from Section 3(a)) and benefits (from Section 4) due to Executive through the termination date,
and Executive will not be entitled to, nor will Executive receive, any type of severance payment.

 

3

 

(b) Termination Without Cause. Company also may terminate Executive’s employment at any time
during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term without Cause. Company may, at its discretion, place
Executive on a paid administrative leave prior to the actual date of termination set by Company.
During the administrative leave, Company may bar Executive’s access to Company’s offices or
facilities if reasonably necessary to the smooth operation of Company, or may provide Executive
with access subject to such reasonable terms and conditions as Company chooses to impose.

(c) Continued Compensation. Should Executive’s employment by Company be terminated without
Cause, Executive shall receive as a lump sum within three (3) business days (or sooner if required
by law) following such termination the total amount of Executive’s base salary for the remainder of
the Initial Term or current Renewal Term. Executive shall have no duty to mitigate damages in
order to receive the compensation described by this Subsection, and the compensation shall not be
reduced or offset by other income, payments or profits received by Executive from any source.

(d) Incentive Compensation. If Executive is terminated for Cause, Executive shall not be
entitled to receive any incentive compensation payments for the quarter in which Executive’s
employment is terminated or for any other periods. If Executive is terminated without Cause,
Executive shall receive, in a lump sum, an amount equal to (1) with respect to any Incentive
Compensation Plan with quarterly objectives, the sum of (i) a prorated bonus for the quarter in
which the termination takes place and (ii) four times Executive’s bonus for the last completed
quarter, plus (2) with respect to any Incentive Compensation Plan with annual objectives, a
prorated bonus for the year in which the termination takes place (as so calculated, the “Incentive
Severance Compensation”), each to be paid as soon as reasonably practicable, allowing Company a
sufficient amount of time to calculate such amount. Executive shall have no duty to mitigate
damages in order to receive the compensation described by this Subsection, and the compensation
shall not be reduced or offset by other income, payments or profits received by Executive from any
source.

(e) Other Plans. Except to the extent specified in this Section 6 and as provided in this
Subsection (e), termination of this Agreement shall not affect Executive’s participation in,
distributions from, and vested rights under, any employee benefit, stock option, restricted stock
or other equity-based plan of, or maintained by or for, Company, which benefits will be governed by
the terms of those respective plans, in the event of Executive’s termination of employment.

 

4

 

7. TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE.

(a) General. Executive may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without “Good
Reason” by providing Company with thirty (30) days advance written notice. Company may, at its
discretion, place Executive on a paid administrative leave during all or any part of any such
notice period. During the administrative leave, Company may bar Executive’s access to Company’s
offices or facilities if reasonably necessary to the smooth operation of Company, or may provide
Executive with access subject to such reasonable terms and conditions as Company chooses to impose.

(b) Good Reason Defined. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean and include
each of the following (unless Executive has expressly agreed to such event in a signed writing):
(1) assignment of Executive to a position that is not substantially executive in nature; (2) any
material act or acts of dishonesty by Company directed toward or affecting Executive; (3) any
illegal act or instruction directly affecting Executive by Company, which is not withdrawn after
the Company is notified of the illegality by Executive; or (4) Company’s material breach of this
Agreement (after notice and an opportunity to cure).

(c) Effect of Good Reason Termination. If Executive terminates this Agreement for Good Reason
(as defined in Section 7(b)), it shall for all purposes be treated as a termination by Company
without Cause.

(d) Effect of Termination without Good Reason. If Executive terminates this Agreement without
Good Reason, while the termination shall not be characterized as a termination for Cause, it shall
for all purposes, result in the same compensation as a termination for Cause.

8. CHANGE IN CONTROL OF COMPANY.

(a) Continued Eligibility to Receive Benefits. Company considers the maintenance of a sound
and vital management to be essential to protecting and enhancing the best interests of Company and
its shareholders. In furtherance of such goal and in further consideration of Executive’s
continued employment with Company, if a Change in Control occurs, Executive shall be entitled to a
lump-sum severance benefit provided in subparagraph (b) of this Section 8 if, prior to the
expiration of twelve (12) months after the Change in Control, Executive notifies Company of
Executive’s intent to terminate employment with Company for Good Reason or Company terminates
Executive’s employment without Cause. If Executive triggers the application of this Section by
terminating employment for Good Reason, Executive must do so within sixty (60) days following
Executive’s receipt of notice of the occurrence of the last event that constitutes Good Reason. The
full severance benefits provided by this Section shall be payable regardless of the period
remaining until the expiration of the Agreement without renewal.

(b) Receipt of Benefits. If Executive is entitled to receive a severance benefit pursuant to
Section 8(a) hereof, Company will provide Executive with Executive’s Base Salary for the remainder
of the Initial Term or current Renewal Term plus the Incentive Severance Compensation, to be paid
as soon as reasonably practicable, allowing Company a sufficient amount of time to calculate such
amount.

 

5

 

Executive shall have no duty to mitigate damages in order to receive the compensation
described by this Subsection. If Executive is entitled to receive the payments called for by this
Section 8(b), Executive’s right to receive the compensation provided by Section 6(c) or 7(c) shall
be reduced to the extent of such payments.

(c) Change in Control Defined. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” means
any one or more of the following events:

	 	(1)	 	a change of control of the Company through a
transaction or series of transactions, such that any person (as that term
is used in Section 13 and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(“1934 Act”)), excluding affiliates of the Company as of the Effective
Date, is or becomes the beneficial owner (as that term is used in Section
13(d) of the 1934 Act) directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Company representing 30% or more of the combined voting power of the
Company’s then outstanding securities;
	 
	 	(2)	 	any merger, consolidation or liquidation of the
Company in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving company
or pursuant to which stock would be converted into cash, securities or
other property, other than a merger of the Company in which the holders
of the shares of stock immediately before the merger have the same
proportionate ownership of common stock of the surviving company
immediately after the merger;
	 
	 	(3)	 	the shareholders of the Company approve any plan or
proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or
	 
	 	(4)	 	substantially all of the assets of the Company are
sold or otherwise transferred to parties that are not within a
“controlled group of corporations” (as defined in Section 1563 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) in which the Company is a
member at the Relevant Date.

(d) Notice of Termination by Executive. Any termination by Executive under this Section 8
shall be communicated by written notice to Company, which notice shall set forth generally the
facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for such termination.

(e) Employment by Successor. For purposes of this Agreement, employment by a successor of
Company or a successor of any subsidiary of Company that has assumed this Agreement shall be
considered to be employment by Company or one of its subsidiaries. As a result, if Executive is
employed by such a successor following a Change in Control, Executive will not be entitled to
receive the benefits provided by Section 8 unless Executive’s employment with the successor is
subsequently terminated without Cause within twelve months following the Change in Control or
Executive terminates employment for Good Reason.

9. CONFIDENTIALITY.

  Because of Executive’s knowledge of and participation in executive issues and
decisions as a result of Executive’s present and former executive positions, for purposes of
Sections 9 and 10 of this Agreement, “Company” shall be interpreted to include Company and all of
its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

Executive covenants and agrees to hold in strictest confidence, and not disclose to any
person, firm or company, without the express written consent of Company, any and all of Company’s
confidential data, including but not limited to information and documents concerning Company’s
business, clients, and suppliers, market methods, files, trade secrets, or other “know-how” or
techniques or information not of a published nature or generally known (for the duration they are
not published or generally known) which shall come into Executive’s possession, knowledge, or
custody concerning the business of Company, except as such disclosure may be required by law or in
connection with Executive’s employment hereunder or except as such matters may have been known to
Executive at the time of Executive’s employment by Company. This covenant and agreement of
Executive shall survive this Agreement and continue to be binding upon Executive after the
expiration or termination of this Agreement, whether by passage of time or otherwise so long as
such information and data shall be treated as confidential by Company.

10. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

(a) Covenant Not To Compete. In consideration of Company’s agreements contained herein and
the payments to be made by it to Executive pursuant hereto, Executive agrees that, for a period of
time equal to the time remaining in the Initial Term or any Renewal Term (or if, but only if, a
court or tribunal of final authority finds that this period is unenforceable because it is
unreasonably long, then, if it would shorten the duration, for six months) following the
termination of Executive’s employment for any reason and so long as Company is continuously not in
material default of its obligations to provide payments or employment-type benefits to Executive
hereunder or under any other agreement, covenant, or obligation, Executive will not, without prior
written consent of Company, consult with or act as an advisor to another company about activity
which is a “Competing Business” of such company in the Restricted Territory, as defined below. For
purposes of this Agreement, Executive shall be deemed to be engaged in a “Competing Business” if,
in any capacity, including proprietor, shareholder, partner, officer, director or employee,
Executive engages or participates, directly or indirectly, in the operation, ownership or
management of the activity of any proprietorship, partnership, company or other business entity
which activity is competitive with the then actual business in which Company and its operating
subsidiaries and affiliates are engaged on the date of, or any business contemplated by such
entities’ business plans in effect on the date of notice of, Executive’s termination of employment.
Nothing in this Subsection is intended to limit Executive’s ability to own equity in a public
company constituting less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding equity of such company, when
Executive is not actively engaged in the management thereof.

(b) Non-Solicitation. Executive recognizes that Company’s clients are valuable and
proprietary resources of Company. Accordingly, Executive agrees that for a period of time
following the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason equal to the time remaining in
the Initial Term or any Renewal Term (or if, but only if, a court or tribunal of final authority
finds that this period is unenforceable because it is unreasonably long, then, if it would shorten
the duration, for six months), and only so long as Company is continuously not in material default of its obligations to
provide payments or employment-type benefits to Executive hereunder or under any other agreement,
covenant, or obligation, Executive will not directly or indirectly, through Executive’s own efforts
or through the efforts of another person or entity, solicit business in the Restricted Territory
for or in connection with any Competing Business from any individual or entity which obtained
products or services from Company at any time during Executive’s employment with Company, Executive
will not solicit business for or in connection with a Competing Business from any individual or
entity which may have been solicited by Executive on behalf of Company, and Executive will not
solicit, hire or engage employees of Company who would have the skills and knowledge necessary to
enable or assist efforts by Executive to engage in a Competing Business.

(c) Restricted Territory. Executive and Company understand and agree that Company’s business
is not geographically restricted and is unrelated to the physical location of Company facilities or
the physical location of any Competing Business, due to extensive use of the Internet, telephones,
facsimile transmissions and other means of electronic information and product distribution.
Executive and Company further understand and agree that Executive will, in part, work toward
expanding Company’s markets and geographic business territories and will be compensated for
performing this work on behalf of Company.

Accordingly, Company has a protectable business interest in, and the parties intend the
Restricted Territory to encompass, each and every location from which Exectutive could engage in a
Competing Business in any country, state, province, county or other political subdivision in which
Company has clients, employees, suppliers, distributors or other business partners or operations.
If, but only if, this Restricted Territory is held to be invalid on the ground that it is
unreasonably broad, the Restricted Territory shall include each location from which Executive can
conduct business in any of the following locations: each state in the United States in which
Company conducts sales or operations, each province within Canada in which Company conducts sales
or operations, and each political subdivision of the United Kingdom in which Company conducts sales
or operations. If, but only if, this Restricted Territory is held to be invalid on the grounds
that it is unreasonably broad, then the Restricted Territory shall be any location within a fifty
(50) mile radius of any Company office.

(d) Remedies; Reasonableness. Executive acknowledges and agrees that a breach by Executive of
the provisions of this Section 10 will constitute such damage as will be irreparable and the exact
amount of which will be impossible to ascertain and, for that reason, agrees that Company will be
entitled to an injunction to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction restraining and
enjoining Executive from violating the provisions of this Section. The right to an injunction shall
be in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedy available to Company for such breach or
threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from Executive.

Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that: (1) the Restrictive Covenants contained
herein are reasonable as to time and geographical area and do not place any unreasonable burden
upon Executive; (2) the general public will not be harmed as a result of enforcement of these
Restrictive Covenants; and (3) Executive understands and hereby agrees to each and every term and
condition of the Restrictive Covenants set forth in this Agreement.

Executive also expressly acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s covenants and agreements in
this Section 10 shall survive this Agreement and continue to be binding upon Executive after the
expiration or termination of this Agreement, whether by passage of time or otherwise.

11. BENEFIT AND BINDING EFFECT.

12. FREEDOM FROM RESTRICTIONS.

Executive represents and warrants that Executive has not entered into any agreement, whether
express, implied, oral, or written, that poses an impediment to Executive’s employment by Company

subject to a valid, pre-existing non-competition agreement which prohibits Executive from
fulfilling Executive’s job duties as set out in Section 2(a) of this Agreement, and no restrictions
or limitations exist respecting Executive’s ability to perform fully Executive’s obligations to
Company, including Executive’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

13. THIRD-PARTY TRADE SECRETS.

  During the term of this Agreement, Executive agrees not to copy, refer to, or in any
way use, information that is proprietary to any third party (including any previous employer).

hardware, software, discs, or any other tangible medium that embodies proprietary information from
any third party, and that Executive does not intend to copy, refer to, or in any way use,
information that is proprietary to any third party in performing duties for Company.

possible, this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were
not a part hereof.

17. ARBITRATION.

The parties agree that any and all disputes arising out of the terms of this Agreement, their
interpretation, or Executive’s employment or compensation, shall be subject to binding arbitration
in Maricopa County, Arizona, before the American Arbitration Association under its National Rules
for the Resolution of Employment Disputes, or by a judge to be mutually agreed upon. The parties
agree that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any
court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the arbitration award. The parties agree that if
Company initiates the arbitral proceedings, it shall advance the costs of the arbitration. If
Executive initiates the arbitral proceedings, Executive shall pay the greater of $200.00 or the
initial filing fee Executive would have had to pay if Executive had initiated the case in Maricopa
County courts. Company shall advance the remaining arbitration costs. The prevailing party in any
arbitration shall be awarded its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs.
