				 Section 2.
			Success Bonus Payment; Forfeiture.  

		
			So long as Employee remains continuously employed by the Company or another member of the Select Group between the Effective Date and June 9, 2017 (the “Payment Date”), the Company shall pay Employee the Success Bonus, which payment shall be made in a single lump sum cash payment as soon as practicable following the Payment Date. 
		

		
			For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Employee is no longer employed by the Company or any other member of the Select Group on the Payment Date then, regardless of the reason that such termination occurs, Employee shall not be entitled to receive the Success Bonus or any portion thereof.
		

		
			Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event that Employee engages in Detrimental Activity prior to the expiration of the Term, then: (i) if Employee has not yet received the Success Bonus, Employee shall no longer be eligible to receive the Success Bonus or any portion thereof, and (ii) if Employee has received the Success Bonus, Employee shall be obligated to repay to the Company the entirety of the Success Bonus paid to Employee, which repayment must be made no later than ten (10) days after the Company or another member of the Select Group makes written demand for repayment.

			Group (which, for avoidance of doubt, does not include any sums earned on or after the date Employee signs this Agreement, including the Success Bonus), including all payments owed arising out of all incentive plans and any other bonus arrangements.  For the avoidance of doubt, Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee had no right to the Success Bonus but for Employee’s entry into this Agreement, and Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee has no right to receive and retain the Success Bonus if Employee does not satisfy the conditions to receive and retain the Success Bonus, as set forth herein.  
		

		
			(b)Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that the forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 2 above are intended to link Employee’s interests to the Select Group’s long-term success, but do not restrict or prohibit Employee’s future employment opportunities.

				 (d)
			Waiver.  No delay or omission by either party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall impair such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

			
	
			
				 (e)
			Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including electronic counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

			
	
			
				 (f)
			Interpretation.  Titles and headings to Sections hereof are for the purpose of reference only and shall in no way limit, define or otherwise affect the provisions hereof.  The word “or” as used herein is not exclusive and is deemed to have the meaning “and/or.”  The words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and other compounds of the word “here” shall refer to the entire Agreement and not to any particular provision hereof.  The use herein of the word “including” following any general statement, term or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation”, “but not limited to”, or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter.  Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed or resolved against any party hereto, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise.  On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by each of the parties hereto and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to fairly accomplish the purposes and intentions of the parties.

			Binding Agreement.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and shall be enforceable by the personal representatives and heirs of Employee and the successors and assigns of the Company.  This Agreement may be assigned by the Company to any member of the Select Group, and to any successor to all or substantially all of the Company’s business as a result of a merger, consolidation, sale of stock or assets, or similar transaction; provided that in the event of any such assignment, the Company shall remain liable for all of its obligations hereunder and shall be liable for all obligations of all such assignees hereunder.  If Employee dies while any amounts would still be payable to Employee hereunder, such amounts shall be paid to Employee’s estate.  This Agreement is not otherwise assignable by Employee. 

			
	
			
				 (h)
			Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and may not be amended except by a written instrument hereafter executed by each of the parties hereto.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not replace (and is in addition to) any agreement between the Company or any other member of the Select Group, on the one hand, and Employee, on the other hand, with respect to confidentiality or non-disclosure of information, and non-solicitation of employees or customers.

			regard to its choice of law principles.  The parties acknowledge and agree that Select is incorporated in Delaware and Delaware has a substantial relationship to Select and the Select Group and that there is a reasonable basis for the choice of law herein, as Delaware law is well-known to the Company and well-developed with respect to the subject matters herein.  Further, the designation of Delaware law and the interpretation and application of this Agreement consistent with principles of Delaware law assures uniformity, certainty, and predictability in the application of this Agreement.

			At-Will Employment.  Nothing contained in this Agreement alters the at-will nature of Employee’s employment, and nothing herein shall entitle Employee to be employed by the Company or any other member of the Select Group for any period of time or, if employed, on any particular conditions or terms other than as the Company (or, if applicable, another member of the Select Group that employs Employee) may determine and change in its discretion.

			
	
			
				 (k)
			Venue.  Any dispute between Employee and Company that arises out of or concerns, in whole or in part, this Agreement or the employment relationship between Employee and Company, shall be exclusively resolved in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware.  To the extent necessary, Employee and Company consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, and to waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue.
