 WHEREAS, Purchaser seeks to purchase from Seller, and Seller seeks to sell to Purchaser, up to One Hundred and Ninety Three Thousand, Four Hundred and Eight (193,408) shares of Common Stock (the “Purchased Shares”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual benefits representations, warranties, conditions, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as set forth below.
  
 ARTICLE I
  PURCHASE AND SALE OF PURCHASED SHARES
  
 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Purchased Shares; Closing Accelerations. 
  
 (a) Purchase and Sale of Purchased Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, on each date set forth on the Schedule of Purchased Shares attached hereto or as set forth in the applicable Closing Acceleration Notice (as defined below) or in connection with any Default Date (as defined below) (or any such other date as is mutually agreed to by Seller and Purchaser in writing to effect a Closing hereunder, each, a “Closing Date”), Seller shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, at each such closing (each, a “Closing”) such aggregate number of Purchased Shares set forth on the Schedule of Purchased Shares attached hereto opposite the date of such Closing, as set forth in the applicable Closing Acceleration Notice or in connection with any Default Date. 
  
 (b) Closing Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything set forth on the Schedule of Purchased Shares attached hereto, if Purchaser shall, directly or indirectly, issue, sell, grant any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of any equity security or any equity-linked or related security (including, without limitation, any “equity security” (as that term is defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”)), any Convertible Securities (as defined below), any convertible debt, any preferred stock or any purchase rights) and, in connection therewith, the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries shall be entitled to receive or shall receive, directly or indirectly, cash or other assets in connection therewith (each, an “Eligible Offering”), Purchaser shall within five (5) business days of the closing of each such Eligible Offering (each, a “Eligible Offering Closing”) deliver written notice to Seller setting forth the aggregate gross consideration paid or payable to Purchaser (each, an “Eligible Offering Proceeds”), which notice shall not include any material, non-public information regarding the Company. At any time during the twenty (20) business day period immediately following any given Eligible Offering Closing, Seller may, by written notice (each, a “Closing Acceleration Notice”) to Purchaser, elect to cause one or more accelerations of Purchaser’s acquisition of Purchased Shares hereunder (with an aggregate Purchase Price (as defined below) not to exceed such applicable Eligible Offering Proceeds) to be sold by Seller to Purchaser at one or more additional Closings, each with a Closing Date of the fifth (5th) business day after the applicable Closing Acceleration Notice (or such earlier date as Purchaser and Seller may agree in writing) (each, a “Closing Acceleration Date”), which shall reduce on a share by share basis the Purchased Shares to be sold at other Closings and each applicable Purchase Price by the corresponding Per Share Price(s) of such applicable Purchased Share(s), in each case, as specified in the applicable Closing Acceleration Notice. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Convertible Securities” means any capital stock or other security of the Company or any of its subsidiaries that is at any time and under any circumstances directly or indirectly convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for, or which otherwise entitles the holder thereof to acquire, any capital stock or other security of the Company (including, without limitation, Common Stock) or any of its subsidiaries.

 1.2 Purchase Price. 
  
 Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at each Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller on the applicable Closing Date, by wire transfer in accordance with the wire instructions of Seller delivered to Purchaser on or prior to such Closing, in U.S. dollars and immediately available funds, such purchase price (each, a “Purchase Price”) equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Purchased Shares to be sold to Purchaser at such Closing and (y) $3.00 (in each case, as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations and similar events) (the “Per Share Price”). In the event the Company fails to pay a Purchase Price on an applicable Closing Date in accordance with the foregoing, 120% of the sum of the aggregate Purchase Price for such Closing and all future Closings hereunder shall immediately become due and payable hereunder (the “Default Purchase Price”, and the date of any such default, each a “Default Date”) and such Default Purchase Price shall bear interest at the rate of one and a half percent (1.5%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full and the remaining Purchased Shares then eligible to be sold hereunder as such Closings, in the aggregate, shall be referred to herein as the “Default Purchased Shares”. By no later than the third (3rd) business day after Seller’s receipt of the Default Purchase Price, Seller shall cause Seller Broker to effect the delivery of the Default Purchased Shares to Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, until the Purchaser shall have paid the Default Purchase Price to Seller, Seller may effect one or more Purchase Share Reductions (as defined below), at the sole option of Seller, and upon any such Purchase Share Reduction the applicable Reduced Purchased Shares (as defined below) shall reduce the Default Purchased Shares on a share by share basis and the Default Purchase Price shall be reduced by the product of (x) the aggregate number of such Reduced Purchased Shares in such Purchase Share Reduction and (y) the Per Share Price. 
  
 1.3 Purchased Share Reduction.
  
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, until Seller has received the Purchase Price for any given Purchased Share, Seller may, at Seller’s sole option, sell any such Purchased Share at a price not less than $5.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations and similar events) (except if a Default Date has occurred on or prior to such date of determination, Seller may sell any such Purchased Share, at Seller’s sole option, at any price per share)(each, a “Reduced Purchased Share”, and each such occurrence, each, a “Purchase Share Reduction”) and, by delivery of written notice to Purchaser (which may be an e-mail) (each, a “Purchased Share Reduction Notice”) reduce the aggregate number of Purchased Shares to be included in any future Closing hereunder, which shall reduce on a share by share basis the Purchased Shares to be sold at other Closings and each applicable Purchase Price by the corresponding Per Share Price(s) of such applicable Reduced Purchased Share(s), in each case, as specified in the applicable Purchased Share Reduction Notice.
  
 1.4 The Closings. 
  
 Each Closing contemplated hereby shall take place at 10:00 a.m., EST on each applicable Closing Date. All actions taken at each Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously.
  
 1.5 Delivery of Purchased Shares. 
  
 Upon receipt of the applicable Purchase Price, Seller shall (i) irrevocably direct Seller’s broker (the “Seller Broker”) to transfer the Purchased Shares to Purchaser and (ii) the Purchased Shares shall be transferred to Purchaser or cancelled by the transfer agent of the Company.

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive previously entered into an Employment Agreement, dated October 2, 2016 (as amended from time to time, the “Employment Agreement”);
WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) believes it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to enhance the terms and conditions on which Executive will receive change of control benefits and severance benefits in the event that Executive separates from service with the Company and its affiliates under the circumstances set forth in this Amendment.
WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to amend the Employment Agreement in as provided herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:
		
	1.
	On and after the Amendment Effective Date, a new Section 4(c)(iii) shall be added to the Employment Agreement after Section 4(c)(ii), and shall consist of the following:

“(A) In the event of a Change of Control, and subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company through the effective date of such Change of Control, all outstanding equity awards will vest according to the vesting schedule specified in the 2003 Stock Plan.

(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any term of the 2003 Stock Plan or PSU Agreements to the contrary related to vesting of performance-vesting awards, any unvested performance-vesting equity awards (including any performance shares or units) held by Executive as of immediately prior to the effective date of a Change of Control (“Performance Awards”) shall be treated as follows: (i) the day before the effective date of the Change in Control (the “Wind Up Date”) shall be considered to be the last day of the performance period for such Performance Awards; (ii) TSR-related performance conditions shall be calculated on the Wind Up Date based on the Company’s TSR through that date as compared to the TSR of the relevant comparator group through the Wind Up Date (or the last date preceding the Wind Up Date such TSR performance can be determined if it cannot be determined on the Wind Up Date); and (iii) the Performance Awards shall vest at the higher of (x) the actual measurement under clause (ii) and (y) target performance levels.
