capital stock of the surviving entity) a majority of the total
voting power represented by the shares of voting capital stock of
the Company (or the surviving entity) outstanding immediately after

incorporation or to create a holding company that will be owned in
substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the
Company’s securities immediately before such
transaction.

 

7.2. Change
of Control Bonus. In the event of a Change of Control, the

Plans Following a Change of Control. In the event of a
Change of Control following which the Company (or the surviving
entity) continues to employ Executive and the Company (or the
surviving entity) offers benefit plans that are less favorable to
Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents than the
Benefit Plans Executive and Executive’s dependents had
immediately prior to the Change of Control, the Company (or the
surviving entity) will reimburse Executive for any expenses he
incurs to independently acquire additional coverage under a
third-party plan to cover such deficit in benefits for up to a one
(1) year period up to a maximum of $12,000.

 

7.5. Severance
Payments Following a Change of Control. In the event of a
Change of Control following which the Company (or the surviving
entity) continues to employ Executive, in the event
Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive
pursuant to Section 5.5 (Termination for Good Reason), the Company
(or the surviving entity) shall pay the Severance Payments to
Executive in accordance with Section 6.3 above.

Code, as amended (“Section 409A”), Executive hereby
elects to receive, and the Company hereby agrees to pay, each

and conditions, set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Section 409A would impose any additional tax on payments
within the first six (6) months following Executive’s
Separation from Service (as defined in Section 409A), such
payments shall be delayed to the minimum extent necessary to avoid
such additional tax.  Any delayed payments shall be paid in a

judgment of the Board, violated any material written Company policy
or rules of the Company, unless cured by Executive within 30
days following written notice thereof to Executive, or
(iii) refused to follow the reasonable written directions
given by the Board or its designee or breached any covenant or
obligation under this Agreement or other agreement with the
Company, unless cured by Executive within thirty (30) days
following written notice thereof to Executive. No act or failure to
act by Executive shall be considered “willful” unless
committed without good faith and without a reasonable belief that
the act or omission was in the Company’s best
interest.

 

5.4. Resignation. 
Executive’s employment shall terminate on the earlier of the
date that is thirty (30) days following the written submission of

5.5. Termination
for Good Reason. Executive may terminate her employment
under this Agreement at any time for “Good Reason” (as
hereinafter defined). As used herein, the term “Good
Reason” shall mean, without Executive’s written
consent: (a) a material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary;
(b) a material reduction in Executive’s authority, duties or
responsibilities, including without limitation, removing Executive
as Chairperson of the Board, President or Chief Technology Officer;
(c) relocation by the Company of Executive’s work site to a
facility or location more than 25 miles from the Executive’s
principal work site for the Company; (d) imposition of a
requirement that Executive report to a Company officer or employee
rather than directly to the Board; or (e) a material breach by the
Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other
written agreement or covenant with Executive. A condition will not
be considered “Good Reason” unless Executive gives the
Company written notice of the condition within ninety (90) days
after the condition comes into existence and the Company fails to
remedy the condition within thirty (30) days after receiving
Executive’s written notice. To resign for Good Reason,
Executive must resign within two (2) years after one of the
foregoing conditions has come into existence without
Executive’s consent and has not been remedied by the Company
within its 30-day remedy deadline.

 

5.6. Surrender
of Records and Property.  Subject to Section 8
(License), upon termination of his employment with the Company,
Executive shall deliver promptly to the Company all credit cards,
computer equipment, cellular telephone, records, manuals, books,
blank forms, documents, letters, memoranda, notes, notebooks,
reports, data, tables, calculations or copies thereof, that are the
property of the Company and that relate in any way to the business,
strategies, products, practices, processes, policies or techniques
of the Company, and all other property, trade secrets and
confidential information of the Company, including, but not limited
to, all documents that in whole or in part contain any trade
secrets or confidential information of the Company that in any of
these cases are in his possession or under his control, and
Executive shall also remove all such information from any personal
computers that he owns or controls.

Compensation upon the Termination of
Executive’s Employment.

 

6.1. In
the event that Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant
to Section 5.3 (Termination for Cause) or 5.4 (Resignation)
then Executive shall be entitled to receive a pro rata amount of

termination date to 365. Any shares awarded in excess of such
amount shall be redeemed by the Company for $1.

 

6.2. In
the event Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to

Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall begin COBRA
payments as soon as necessary for Executive to continue coverage,
even if Executive has yet to meet the Conditions (as defined

obligation shall not extend more than sixty (60) days from the date
of termination of Executive’s employment.

Section 6.4 are the “Conditions”). The Company will
deliver the Release (executed by the Company) to Executive within
ten (10) days of termination of Executive’s employment. The
Executive must satisfy the Conditions within sixty (60) days of
termination of Executive’s employment.

 

7.  
Change of
Control. 

 

7.1. Definition
of Change of Control.  As used herein, a “Change
of Control” shall means: (a) the sale, transfer, or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the
Company’s assets, (b) any merger, consolidation or other
business combination transaction of the Company with or into
another corporation, entity or person, other than a transaction in
which the holders of at least a majority of the shares of voting
capital stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such
transaction continue to hold (either by such shares remaining
outstanding or by their being converted into shares of voting
capital stock of the surviving entity) a majority of the total
voting power represented by the shares of voting capital stock of
the Company (or the surviving entity) outstanding immediately after
such transaction, or (c) the direct or indirect acquisition
(including by way of a tender or exchange offer) by any person, or
persons acting as a group, of beneficial ownership or a right to
acquire beneficial ownership of shares representing a majority of
the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of
the Company. A transaction shall not constitute a Change of Control
if its sole purpose is to change the state of the Company’s
incorporation or to create a holding company that will be owned in
substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the
Company’s securities immediately before such
transaction.

 

7.2. Change
of Control Bonus. In the event of a Change of Control, the
Company shall, within thirty (30) days after occurrence of the
Change of Control, pay Executive a lump sum amount equal to the sum
of two hundred percent (200%) of Executive’s then current
annual Base Salary.

 

7.3. Vesting
Acceleration. In the event of a Change of Control, and
notwithstanding the provisions of any Option Agreement to the
contrary, immediately prior to such Change of Control, one hundred
percent (100%) of the then unvested shares subject to each Option
Agreement will fully vest and become fully exercisable, and any
Company rights of repurchase of unvested shares with respect
thereto will fully lapse, as of the closing date of the Change of
Control. The Company shall also amend each Option Agreement to
permit Executive to exercise the options provided by each Option
Agreement for a period of ten (10) years following the termination
of Executive’s employment.

 

 

6

 

 

7.4. Benefit
Plans Following a Change of Control. In the event of a
Change of Control following which the Company (or the surviving
entity) continues to employ Executive and the Company (or the
surviving entity) offers benefit plans that are less favorable to
Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents than the
Benefit Plans Executive and Executive’s dependents had
immediately prior to the Change of Control, the Company (or the
surviving entity) will reimburse Executive for any expenses he
incurs to independently acquire additional coverage under a
third-party plan to cover such deficit in benefits for up to a one
(1) year period up to a maximum of $12,000.

 

7.5. Severance
Payments Following a Change of Control. In the event of a
Change of Control following which the Company (or the surviving
entity) continues to employ Executive, in the event
Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive
pursuant to Section 5.5 (Termination for Good Reason), the Company
(or the surviving entity) shall pay the Severance Payments to
Executive in accordance with Section 6.3 above.

 

8.  
Successors.

 

8.1. The
Company’s Successors. Any successor to the Company
(whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, merger,
acquisition, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets
shall assume the obligations of the Company under this Agreement
and agree expressly to perform the obligations of the Company under
this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the
Company would be required to perform such obligations in the
absence of a succession.

 

8.2. Executive’s
Successors. The terms of this Agreement and all rights of

Code, as amended (“Section 409A”), Executive hereby
elects to receive, and the Company hereby agrees to pay, each

and conditions, set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Section 409A would impose any additional tax on payments
within the first six (6) months following Executive’s
Separation from Service (as defined in Section 409A), such
payments shall be delayed to the minimum extent necessary to avoid
such additional tax.  Any delayed payments shall be paid in a

writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver
or estoppel is sought.  Any written waiver shall not be deemed
a continuing waiver unless specifically stated, shall operate only
as to the specific term or condition waived, and shall not
constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as
to any act other than that specifically waived.

 

9.9. Severability. 
To the extent any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or
unenforceable, it shall be considered deleted from this Agreement
