Post-Termination Agreement and Covenant Not to Compete

 Exhibit 10.1 
 POST-TERMINATION AGREEMENT 
 AND COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE 
 This Post-Termination Agreement and Covenant Not to Compete is entered into this 5th day of March, 2009, by and between Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and its
affiliates (“Wal-Mart”) and Brian C. Cornell (“Associate”). The parties agree as follows: 
 1.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. As part of this Agreement, the parties specifically acknowledge that: 
 (A) Wal-Mart is a major retail operation,
with stores located throughout the United States and in certain foreign locations; 
 (B) Associate is being hired, effective April 3,
2009, to serve as Executive Vice President, President and Chief Executive Officer, Sam’s Club, which is a key officer position appointed by the Wal-Mart Board of Directors; 
 (C) As an essential part of its business, Wal-Mart has cultivated, established and maintained long-term customer and vendor relationships and goodwill,
which are difficult to develop and maintain, have required and continue to require a significant investment of time, effort, and expense, and that can suffer significantly and irreparably upon the departure of key officers, regardless of whether the
officer has been personally involved in developing or maintaining the relationships or the good will; 
 (D) In the development of its
business, Wal-Mart has also expended a significant amount of time, money, and effort in developing, maintaining, and protecting confidential, proprietary, and trade secret information which, if disclosed or misused, could cause irreparable harm to
Wal-Mart’s business, anticipated business, and its competitive position in the retail marketplace; 
 (E) As Executive Vice President,
President and Chief Executive Officer, Sam’s Club, Associate has access to confidential and proprietary trade secret information and other confidential and proprietary information, including business and marketing plans and strategies, that
would be of considerable value to Wal-Mart’s competitors and potential competitors; and 
 (F) Associate acknowledges that Wal-Mart is
entitled to take appropriate steps to ensure: (i) that its associates do not make improper use of confidential or proprietary information gained during the course of their employment with Wal-Mart, (ii) that no individual associate or
competing entity gains an unfair, competitive advantage over Wal-Mart, and (iii) that its competitors do not improperly gain access to or make any use of its confidential or proprietary information in their efforts to compete against, or cause
harm to, Wal-Mart. 
 2. TRANSITION PAYMENTS. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Transition Period” means a period of
two (2) years from the date the Associate separates from service from the Company (the “Separation Date”). If Wal-Mart terminates Associate’s employment, Wal-Mart will pay Associate during the Transition Period an amount equal to
Associate’s base salary at the rate in effect on the Separation Date (“Transition Payments”), subject to such withholding as may be required by law and subject to the conditions and offsets set forth in this Section 2. Transition
Payments will commence, and be paid at the times and in the amounts, provided in Section 2(E). 

 (A) Transition Payments will not be paid if Associate is terminated as the result of a violation of any
Wal-Mart policy. 
 (B) No Transition Payments will be paid if Associate voluntarily resigns or retires from employment with Wal-Mart.

 (C) Given the availability of other programs designed to provide financial protection in such circumstances, Transition Payments will not
be paid under this Agreement if Associate dies or becomes disabled. If Associate dies during the Transition Period, Transition Payments will cease, and Associate’s heirs will not be entitled to the continuation of such payments. Transition
Payments will not be affected by Associate’s disability during the Transition Period. 
 (D) Transition Payments will be offset by any
amounts that Associate may earn during the Transition Period by virtue of employment with, or involvement in, an entity other than a Competing Business, as defined in Section 4(B) below. No Transition Payments will be made if Associate is
employed by a Competing Business as defined in Section 4. Associate’s violation of the obligations under Sections 4 or 5 below, or any other act that is materially harmful to Wal-Mart’s business interests during the Transition Period,
will result in the immediate termination of the Transition Payments, in addition to any other remedies that may be available to Wal-Mart, including but not limited to the recovery of the Transition Payments made. 
 (E) Transition Payments will be paid on such regularly scheduled pay periods as may be adopted by
Wal-Mart for its other salaried employees. The first payment shall be equal to one-half ( 1/2) of Associate’s total
Transition Payments, and will be made as soon as practical after the Separation Date, but not to exceed 45 days after the Separation Date. The next scheduled Transition Payment shall be made during the first regularly scheduled pay period following
six (6) months after Associate’s Separation Date. Thereafter, the remaining Transition Payments shall be the amount which would have continued as part of Associate’s regular pay and will continue until the end of the Transition
Period, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 (F) Receipt of Transition Payments will not entitle Associate to
participate during the Transition Period in any of the other incentive, stock option, profit sharing, or other associate benefit plans or programs maintained by Wal-Mart, except, Associate will be entitled to participate in such plans or programs,
to the extent that the terms of the plan or program provide for participation by former associates. Such participation, if any, shall be governed by the terms of the applicable plan or program. 
 3. BENEFITS. Associate will be eligible for all other payments and benefits accrued and owing at the time of termination. Participation in all
other benefit programs available to current associates, will end on the Separation Date, subject to Associate’s rights under COBRA to continue group medical and dental coverage for eighteen (18) months, pursuant to the terms of COBRA,
which are currently extended to terminating Wal-Mart associates.

 4. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. Associate agrees, promises, and covenants that: 
 (A) For a period of two (2) years from the Separation Date, and regardless of the cause or reason for such separation, Associate will not directly or
indirectly: 
 (i) own, manage, operate, finance, join, control, advise, consult, render services to, have a current or future
interest in, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, or be employed by or connected in any manner with, any Competing Business as defined below in Section 4(B), without regard to the geographic location
of such Competing Business, due to the sensitive and far-reaching nature of the duties of Associate’s position at Wal-Mart; or 
 (ii) solicit for employment, hire or offer employment to, or otherwise aid or assist any person or entity other than Wal-Mart in soliciting for employment, hiring, or offering employment to, any employee of Wal-Mart, or any of its
affiliates. 
 (B) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competing Business” shall include any general or specialty retail,
wholesale, or merchandising business that sells goods or merchandise of the types sold by Wal-Mart at retail to consumers that is: (i) located within the United States, or any other country in which Wal-Mart or its affiliates either operate a
store or are known by Associate to have plans to open or acquire an operation within the next twelve (12) months, and that (ii) has gross annual sales volume or revenues attributable to its retail operations in excess of U.S. $2 billion,
or is reasonably expected to have gross sales volume or revenues of more than U.S. $2 billion in either the current fiscal year or the next following fiscal year. “Competing Business” as of the date of this Agreement shall specifically
include, but is not limited to: Target Corporation, Costco Wholesale Corporation, Best Buy Co., Inc., The Home Depot, Inc., Dollar General Corp., Family Dollar Stores, Inc., Kohls Corporation, Hudson’s Bay Company, Carrefour S.A., Lowe’s
Companies, Inc., The Kroger Co., Tesco plc, Metro AG, Koninklijke Ahold N.V., J C Penney Co., Inc., SuperValu Inc., Sears Holdings Corp., Aldi Einkauf GmbH & Co. oHG, Lidl Stiftung & Co. KG, J Sainsbury plc, WM Morrison
Supermarkets Plc, Jim Pattison Group, Ito-Yokado Co., Ltd., AEON Co., Ltd, Groupe Auchan SA, Toys “R” Us, Inc., Loblaw Companies Limited, Casino Guichard-Perrachon S.A., Woolworths Ltd (Australia), Grupo Gigante, S.A. de C.V., Controladora
Comercial Mexicana S.A. de C.V., Organizacion Soriana S.A. de C.V., Dollar Tree Stores, Inc., Reliance Industries Limited, and Safeway Inc. (USA) and Plc (UK). 
 (C) Ownership of an investment of less than the greater of $25,000 or 1% of any class of equity or debt security of a Competing Business will not be deemed ownership or participation in ownership of a Competing
Business for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (D) The covenant not to compete contained in this Section 4 shall bind Associate, and shall
remain in full force and effect, regardless of whether Associate qualifies, or continues to remain eligible, for the Transition Payments described in Section 2 above. Termination of the Transition Payments pursuant to Section 2 will not
release Associate from Associate’s obligations under this Section 4.

 5. FUTURE ASSISTANCE: Associate agrees to provide reasonable assistance and cooperation to
Wal-Mart in connection with any agency investigation, litigation or similar proceedings that may exist or may arise regarding events as to which Associate has knowledge by virtue of Associate’s employment with Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart will compensate
Associate for reasonable travel, materials, and other expenses incidental to any such support Associate may provide to Wal-Mart, at Wal-Mart’s request. 
 6. PRESERVATION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Associate will not at any time, directly or indirectly, use or disclose any Confidential Information obtained during the course of his employment with Wal-Mart
except as may be authorized by Wal-Mart. “Confidential Information” shall include any non-public information pertaining to Wal-Mart’s business, and shall include information obtained by Associate during the course of, or as a result
of, his employment with Wal-Mart, including, without limitation, information regarding Wal-Mart’s processes, suppliers (including the terms, conditions, or other business arrangements with such suppliers), advertising and marketing plans and
strategies, profit margins, seasonal plans, goals, objectives and projections, compilations, analyses, and projections regarding Wal-Mart’s business, trade secrets, salary, staffing, compensation, and other employment data, and any
“know-how” techniques, practice or any technical information not of a published nature regarding Wal-Mart’s business. 
 7.
REMEDIES FOR BREACH. The parties shall each be entitled to pursue all legal and equitable rights and remedies to secure performance of their respective obligations and duties under this Agreement, and enforcement of one or more of these rights
and remedies will not preclude the parties from pursuing any other rights and remedies. Associate acknowledges that a breach of the provisions of Sections 4 through 6, above, could result in substantial and irreparable damage to Wal-Mart’s
business, and that the restrictions contained in Sections 4 through 6 are a reasonable attempt by Wal-Mart to protect its rights and to safeguard its Confidential Information. Associate expressly agrees that upon a breach or a threatened breach of
the provisions of Sections 4 through 6, Wal-Mart will be entitled to injunctive relief to restrain such violation, and Associate hereby expressly consents to the entry of such temporary, preliminary, and/or permanent injunctive relief, as may be
necessary to enjoin the violation of Sections 4 through 6. With respect to any breach of this Agreement by Associate, Associate agrees to indemnify and hold Wal-Mart harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, or expense, including,
but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, incurred by Wal-Mart, and to return immediately to Wal-Mart all of the monies previously paid to Associate by Wal-Mart under this Agreement, provided, however, that such repayment shall not constitute a
waiver by Wal-Mart of any other remedies available under this Section or by law. 
 8. SEVERABILITY. In the event that a court of
competent jurisdiction shall determine that any portion of this Agreement is invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the parties agree that the remaining portions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties also expressly agree
that if any portion of the covenant not to compete set forth in Section 4 shall be deemed unenforceable, then the Agreement shall automatically be deemed to have been amended to incorporate such terms as will render the covenant enforceable to
the maximum extent permitted by law. 
  

 4 

 9. NATURE OF THE RELATIONSHIP. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to
constitute a contract of employment for a definite term. The parties acknowledge that Associate is not employed by Wal-Mart for a definite term, and that either party may sever the employment relationship at any time and for any reason not otherwise
prohibited by law. 
 10. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This document contains the entire understanding and agreement between Associate and
Wal-Mart regarding the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes and replaces any and all prior understandings or agreements between the parties regarding this subject, and no representations or statements by either party shall be
deemed binding unless contained herein. 
 11. MODIFICATION. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, or altered except in a
writing signed by both parties or their designated representatives. 
 12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement will inure to the
benefit of, and will be binding upon, Wal-Mart, its successors and assigns, and on Associate and his heirs, successors, and assigns. No rights or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned to any other person without the express written
consent of all parties hereto. 
 13. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, in which case each of the two
counterparts will be deemed to be an original and the final counterpart will be deemed to have been executed in Bentonville, Arkansas. 
 14. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, but without regard to Delaware law concerning the conflicts of law. The parties further agree that
any action relating to the interpretation, validity, or enforcement of this Agreement shall be brought in the appropriate state or federal court encompassing Benton County, Arkansas, and the parties hereby expressly consent to the jurisdiction of
such courts and agree that venue is proper in those courts. Associate further agrees that in any claim or action involving the execution, interpretation, validity, or enforcement of this Agreement, he will seek satisfaction exclusively from the

 5Employment Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
 THIS
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), is made and entered into as of the 10th day of March, 2009 (the “Effective
Date”) by and between Kensey Nash Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Michael Celano (“Executive”). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings
ascribed to such terms in Exhibit A. 
 WHEREAS, the Company wishes to retain Executive as an executive employee, and Executive
wishes to be employed by the Company in such capacity, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants of the parties hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1.    EMPLOYMENT OF EXECUTIVE. The Company engages and employs Executive in an executive capacity and Executive accepts such employment
and agrees to act as an employee of the Company in accordance with the terms of employment hereinafter specified. Executive shall hold the office of Chief Financial Officer and shall, subject to the direction and supervision of the Chief Executive
Officer (“CEO”), (a) have the responsibilities and authority customarily associated with such office, and (b) perform such other duties and responsibilities as the CEO shall from time to time assign to him. Executive
agrees to diligently and faithfully serve the Company and to devote his best efforts, his full business time and his highest talents and skills to the furtherance and success of the Company’s business. 
 2.    COMPENSATION. As full and complete compensation to Executive for all services to be rendered by Executive hereunder, the Company
shall pay Executive as follows: 
 (a)    The Company shall, during the Employment Term (as defined in Paragraph 3(a)),
pay or cause to be paid to Executive a base salary at the rate of $250,000 per annum, or Executive’s most recent per annum base salary from the Company, whichever is greater (the “Base Salary”). Such Base Salary shall be paid
in periodic installments at the discretion of the Company (but not less frequently than monthly) in accordance with the Company’s normal mode of executive salary payment. 
 (b)    The Company may, during the Employment Term (as defined in Paragraph 3(a)), pay or cause to be paid to Executive an annual
cash bonus not to exceed 75%, with an initial target established at 50%, of Executive’s Base Salary for the applicable Performance Period. Such annual cash bonus, if any, shall be paid following the end of the applicable Performance Period, but
in no event shall such annual cash bonus be paid later than March 15 following the calendar year in which the applicable Performance Period ends (e.g., the annual cash bonus for the Performance Period ending June 30, 2008 must be
paid no later than March 15, 2009). The amount of Executive’s cash bonus will be determined on an annual basis, in connection with the applicable Company bonus compensation plan (a “Bonus Plan”) and based upon specified
goals and objectives, at the discretion of the Board/Company’s Compensation Committee. In addition, Restricted Stock, Stock Options and other equity-based awards 

  

 1 

 
may be awarded to Executive in accordance with the applicable Company incentive compensation plan (an “Incentive Plan”). 
 3.    TERM OF EMPLOYMENT; SEVERANCE. 
 (a)    The term of Executive’s employment under this Agreement (the “Employment Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall expire on the earliest to occur of the
following dates: (i) two (2) years after such date; (ii) the effective date of Executive’s termination of employment by the Company, including any termination by the Company for Cause; (iii) the effective date of
Executive’s termination of employment due to his Retirement or resignation, including, but not limited to, a termination by Executive for Good Reason following a Change in Control; and (iv) the date of Executive’s death;
provided, however, that the Employment Term may be extended in additional one (1) year increments prior to its expiration by mutual written agreement of the parties hereto. Any such extension shall also be referred to in this
Agreement as the Employment Term. In the event that the Employment Term expires due to non-renewal of this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company continues, such employment shall be at-will; provided, however, that
Executive’s obligations under Paragraphs 6 through 10 hereof shall continue in full force and effect. 
 (b)    Termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement, voluntary termination of employment or non-renewal of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any of Executive’s obligations
hereunder that survive termination hereof, including without limitation those arising under Paragraphs 6 through 10 inclusive hereof. 
 (c)    In the event Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause prior to a Change in Control during the Employment Term, the Company shall pay to Executive on the terms described below a
severance fee equal to the greater of (x) any amount of Base Salary remaining until the second anniversary of the Effective Date and a payment equal to one Estimated Bonus for each year of the original two-year Employment Term for which
Executive has not yet received such a bonus payment and to which Executive would otherwise be entitled but for such termination, or (y) twelve (12) months worth of Executive’s Base Salary and a payment equal to one Estimated Bonus.
Such severance fee shall be paid (subject to the proviso below) in a lump sum cash payment within sixty (60) days following the Termination Date, subject to Executive executing, returning to the Company and not revoking a General Release
Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, (the “Release Agreement”), and such Release Agreement becoming effective and irrevocable no later than fifty-five (55) days following Executive’s Termination Date.
Additionally, Executive shall continue to be eligible to receive those severance fringe benefits enumerated in Exhibit C hereof (the “Continuation Benefits”) (subject to Paragraph 3(i)) for a period of time up to the second
anniversary of the Effective Date (i.e., the remainder of the original two-year Employment Term) or twelve (12) months, whichever is longer following Executive’s Termination Date; provided, however, that such
Continuation Benefits must constitute COBRA Continuation Coverage in order for Executive to be eligible to receive such Continuation Benefits. 
 In addition, subject to the terms of the applicable Incentive Plan, upon the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause during the Employment Term, all of Executive’s Stock Options and Restricted Stock
shall immediately vest and such Stock Options shall remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year from Executive’s Termination Date (the “Extended Exercise Period”); provided, however, the Extended Exercise
Period shall not be extended beyond the 

  

 2 

 
original term of the Stock Option provided for in the applicable Grant Agreement or Incentive Plan. Upon the expiration of the Extended Exercise Period, all
of Executive’s outstanding and unexercised Stock Options shall be immediately cancelled. 
 (d)    In the event
Executive’s employment is terminated either by the Company with Cause or by Executive other than for reasons provided in Paragraph 3(e) below during the Employment Term, the Company shall have no further obligations hereunder or otherwise with
respect to Executive’s employment following the Termination Date, except for (i) the payment of Executive’s Base Salary accrued through the Termination Date, and (ii) in the case of Executive’s termination due to Retirement,
the provisions of Paragraph 3(h), if applicable. 
 (e)    In the
event, upon or following a Change in Control, the Company terminates Executive’s employment for a reason other than Cause or Executive quits his employment with the Company for Good Reason during the Employment Term, the Company shall pay to
Executive on the terms described below a severance fee equal to the greater of (x) the amount Executive would be entitled to receive under Paragraph 3(c) of this Agreement for a termination without Cause, or (y) the sum of (A) one and
one half (1 1/2) times his regular Base Salary or one and one half (1 1/2) times his most recent per annum Base Salary at the Company, whichever is greater, and (B) a payment in an amount equal to one and one half (1 1/2) times an Estimated Bonus. Such severance fee shall be paid (subject to the proviso below) in a lump sum cash payment within
sixty (60) days following the Termination Date, subject to Executive executing, returning to the Company and not revoking the Release Agreement, and such Release Agreement becoming effective and irrevocable, no later than fifty-five
(55) days following Executive’s Termination Date. 
 Additionally, Executive shall continue to be eligible to
receive the Continuation Benefits (subject to Paragraph 3(i)) for a period of up to twenty-four (24) months following Executive’s Termination Date; provided, however, that such Continuation Benefits must constitute COBRA
Continuation Coverage in order for Executive to be eligible to receive such Continuation Benefits. 
 In addition, subject to the terms of
the applicable Incentive Plan, upon a Change in Control that occurs during the Employment Term, vesting of all unvested Stock Options granted and Restricted Stock awarded to Executive shall accelerate such that Executive shall be immediately one
hundred percent (100%) vested in all equity awarded. Upon or following a Change in Control, subject to the terms of the applicable Incentive Plan, in the event of Executive’s termination without Cause or Executive’s resignation
for Good Reason during the Employment Term, Executive’s Stock Options shall remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year from Executive’s Termination Date (the “Extended Exercise Period”); provided,
however, the Extended Exercise Period shall not be extended beyond the original term of the Stock Option provided for in the applicable Grant Agreement or Incentive Plan. Upon the expiration of the Extended Exercise Period, all of
Executive’s outstanding and unexercised Stock Options shall be immediately cancelled. 
 (f)    In the event the
Employment Term ends pursuant to Paragraph 3(a)(i), the Company shall have no further obligations hereunder and Executive’s employment shall be at-will in accordance with Paragraph 3(a). 
 (g)    In the event any payments or benefits received by Executive in connection with his termination of employment or otherwise
(which payments shall include, without limitation, the vesting 

  

 3 

 
of an equity award or other non-cash benefit or property), whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement, or agreement with
the Company or any affiliated company (collectively, the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or in part) to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), or any similar tax as may hereafter be imposed (the “Excise Tax”), the provisions as attached in Exhibit D shall apply. 
 (h)    In the event Executive’s employment is terminated by Executive due to Executive’s Retirement during the Employment Term, subject to the terms of the applicable Incentive Plan,
Executive’s Stock Options that are vested as of the Termination Date shall remain exercisable for a period of one (1) year from the Termination Date (the “Extended Exercise Period”); provided, however, the
Extended Exercise Period shall not be extended beyond the original term of the Stock Option provided for in the applicable Grant Agreement or Incentive Plan. Upon the expiration of the Extended Exercise Period, all of Executive’s remaining
outstanding and unexercised Stock Options shall be immediately cancelled. 
 (i)    The Continuation Benefits Executive
is eligible to receive, if any, under Paragraph 3(c) or 3(e), will cease immediately upon Executive becoming gainfully employed and being eligible for benefits at his new place of employment. Executive shall notify the Company in writing promptly
after Executive’s commencement of such other employment. 
 (j)    Executive agrees that he shall not be entitled to
receive any severance fee or other benefits under this Agreement if Executive breaches any of his obligations arising under Paragraphs 8 through 10 hereof. Executive acknowledges that until a Release Agreement is timely executed, delivered to the
Company and the applicable revocation period (if any) expires, the Company will not be obligated to make any severance payments or provide any other benefits due under this Agreement following Executive’s Termination Date or Separation from
Service. Executive further acknowledges that if either or both of the following occur: (x) the Release Agreement is not timely executed and delivered to the Company, and/or (y) the applicable revocation period (if any) does not expire
without revocation of the Release Agreement by Executive as provided in this Agreement, the severance payments and other benefits described in Paragraph 3(c) or 3(e) (as applicable) shall be forfeited. Any severance paid pursuant to this Agreement
shall be in addition to any other compensation or benefits to which Executive may be entitled under any other plan, program or payroll practice of the Company, other than any applicable severance plan of the Company. 
 (k)    The Company shall not be required to provide additional accruals or contributions under any retirement plan qualified under
Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code following Executive’s Termination Date. 
 (l)    The provision of
any severance fringe benefit as described in this Agreement shall terminate upon the death of Executive if such death occurs prior to the completion of such payments or benefits, provided that any family member of Executive receiving such severance
fringe benefits as of the date of Executive’s death shall continue to receive such severance fringe benefits until such severance fringe benefits expire in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (m)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein provided, if Executive is considered a “specified employee” (as
defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i)) as of the Termination Date, no payment or benefits under this Agreement, if and to the extent such payment or benefits 

  

 4 

 
constitute deferred compensation, shall be paid or provided before the date that is six (6) months after Executive’s Separation from Service (or
upon Executive’s death, if earlier) (the “Delay Period”). Any deferred compensation owed to Executive during the Delay Period, and for which payment is not otherwise provided, shall be accumulated by the Company and paid to
Executive on the first business day after the end of the Delay Period. The foregoing restriction on the payment of amounts to Executive during the Delay Period shall not apply to the payment of employment taxes. 
 4.    FRINGE BENEFITS. 
 (a)    During the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all health insurance and retirement benefit programs normally available to other executives of the Company holding positions similar to
that of Executive (subject to all applicable eligibility rules thereof), as from time to time in effect, and Executive shall also be eligible to receive the benefits listed on Exhibit E hereto. 
 (b)    During the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation as listed in Exhibit E. Executive shall make
good faith efforts to schedule such vacations so as to least conflict with the conduct of the Company’s business and shall give the Company adequate advance notice of his planned absences. Unless otherwise required by applicable law,
accumulated, unused vacation time for executives of the Company is not vested and will not be paid to Executive either while employed or upon Executive’s termination of employment. 
 5.    REIMBURSEMENTS. During the Employment Term, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all business-related expenses incurred by Executive at the Company’s direction. Executive
shall submit to the Company expense reports in compliance with established Company guidelines. 
 6.    INVENTIONS.
Executive agrees, on behalf of himself, his heirs and personal representatives, that he will promptly communicate, disclose and transfer to the Company free of all encumbrances and restrictions (and will execute and deliver any papers and take any
action at any time deemed necessary by the Company to further establish such transfer) all inventions and improvements relating to Company’s business originated or developed by Executive solely or jointly with others during the term of his
employment with the Company. Such inventions and improvements shall belong to the Company whether or not they are patentable and whether or not patent applications are filed thereon. Such transfer shall include all patent rights (if any) to such
inventions or improvements in the United States and in all foreign countries. Executive further agrees, at the request of Company, to execute and deliver, at any time during the term of his employment with the Company or after his Termination Date,
all assignments and other lawful papers (which will be prepared at the Company’s expense) relating to any aspect of the prosecution of such patent applications and rights in the United States and foreign countries. 
 7.    EXPOSURE TO PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. 
 (a)    Executive acknowledges and agrees that during the course of his employment by Company, he will be in continuous contact with customers, suppliers and others doing business with the Company
throughout the world. Executive further acknowledges that the performance of his duties in connection with his employment with the Company will expose him to data and information 

  

 5 

 
concerning the business and affairs of the Company, including but not limited to information relative to the Company’s proprietary rights and
technology, patents, financial statements, sales programs, pricing programs, profitability analyses and profit margin information, customer buying patterns, needs and inventory levels, supplier identities and other related matters, and that all of
such data and information (collectively “the Proprietary Information”) is vital, sensitive, confidential and proprietary to Company. 
 (b)    In recognition of the special nature of his employment with the Company, including but not limited to his special access to the Proprietary Information, and in consideration of his
employment, Executive agrees to the covenants and restrictions set forth in Paragraphs 8 through 10 inclusive hereof. As used in Paragraphs 6 though 10, the term “Company” shall include, where applicable, any parent, subsidiary,
sub-subsidiary, or affiliate of Company. 
 8.    USE OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Executive acknowledges that the
Proprietary Information constitutes a protectable business interest of Company, and covenants and agrees that during his employment with the Company and after his Termination Date, he shall not, directly or indirectly, whether individually, as a
director, stockholder, owner, partner, employee or agent of any business, or in any other capacity, make known, disclose, furnish, make available or utilize any of the Proprietary Information, other than in the proper performance of his duties
during his employment with the Company. Executive’s obligations under this Paragraph 8 with respect to particular Proprietary Information shall terminate only at such time (if any) as the Proprietary Information in question becomes generally
known to the public other than through a breach of Executive’s obligations hereunder. 
 9.    RESTRICTION AGAINST COMPETITION
AND EMPLOYING OR SOLICITING COMPANY EMPLOYEES, CUSTOMERS OR SUPPLIERS. Executive covenants and agrees that during Executive’s employment (both during the Employment Term and thereafter, if applicable) and for the twelve month period
immediately following Executive’s Termination Date (the “Restricted Period”), he shall not, directly or indirectly, whether individually, as a director, stockholder, partner, owner, employee or agent of any business, or in any
other capacity, (i) engage in a business substantially similar to that which is conducted by the Company in any market area in which such business is operated; (ii) solicit any party who is or was a customer or supplier of the Company on
the Termination Date or at any time during the six month period immediately prior thereto for the sale or purchase of any type or quantity of products sold by or used in the business of the Company on the Termination Date or at any time within such
six month period; or (iii) solicit for employment any person who was or is an employee of the Company on the Termination Date or at any time during the twelve month period immediately prior thereto. 
 If at any time prior to the end of the Restricted Period, the Company determines that Executive is engaging in Competition, the Company shall have the right to
immediately terminate further payments and benefits hereunder, and Executive shall reimburse the Company for the gross amount of any severance benefits previously paid pursuant to Paragraph 3 of this Agreement. In addition, upon any such breach,
Executive shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate “spread” on all Stock Options exercised on or after the Termination Date (for this purpose “spread” in respect of any Stock Option shall mean the product of the
number of shares as to which such Stock Option has been exercised on or after the Termination Date multiplied by the difference between the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the exercise date (or if such common stock did not trade
on the NASDAQ Global 

  

 6 

 
Select Market on the exercise date, the most recent date on which such common stock did so trade) and the option price of the Stock Option). 
 If Executive engages in Competition at any time during the Restricted Period, Executive shall return all payments paid under Paragraph 3, and the Company shall be
entitled to enforce the return of any payments previously paid to Executive under Paragraph 3 of this Agreement. 
 10.    RETURN
OF COMPANY MATERIALS UPON TERMINATION. Executive acknowledges that all price lists, sales manuals, catalogs, binders, customer lists and other customer information, supplier lists, financial information, and other records or documents
containing Proprietary Information prepared by Executive or coming into his possession by virtue of his employment by the Company is and shall remain the property of the Company and that upon his Termination Date, Executive shall return immediately
to the Company all such items in his possession, together with all copies thereof. 
 11.    EQUITABLE REMEDIES.

  

	 	(a)	Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in Paragraphs 6 through 10 inclusive hereof survive the expiration of the Employment Term; are reasonable and
necessary for the protection of the Company’s business interests; will cause irreparable injury to the Company if breached by Executive; and that in the event of Executive’s actual or threatened breach of any such covenants, the Company
will have no adequate remedy at law. Executive accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by him of any of said covenants, the Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive and other equitable relief, without bond
and without the necessity of showing actual monetary damages. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of any
damages which it is able to prove. 

  

	 	(b)	Each of the covenants in Paragraphs 6 through 10 inclusive hereof shall be construed as independent of any other covenants or other provisions of this Agreement.

  

	 	(c)	In the event of any judicial determination that any of the covenants set forth in Paragraphs 6 through 10 inclusive hereof is not fully enforceable, it is the intention and desire
of the parties that the court treat said covenants as having been modified to the extent deemed necessary by the court to render them reasonable and enforceable, and that the court enforce them to such extent. 

 12.    LIFE INSURANCE. The Company may at its discretion and at any time apply for and procure as owner and for its own benefit and at
its own expense, insurance on the life of Executive in such amounts and in such form or forms as the Company may choose. Executive shall cooperate with the Company in procuring such insurance and shall, at the request of Company, submit to such
medical examinations, supply such information and execute such documents as may be required by the insurance company or companies to whom the Company has applied for such insurance. Executive shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or
policies.

 WHEREAS, Executive and the Company desire to avoid litigation and controversy and fully settle and compromise any and all claims, charges,
actions, causes of action and disputed issues of law and fact that Executive has, had or may have against the Company, as of the date of this Release Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below and in the employment agreement previously entered into by and between Executive and the Company (the

 3.    Executive Release of Rights and Agreement Not to Sue. Executive (defined for purposes of this Paragraph 3 and Paragraphs

of any representation, warranty, or obligation set forth in this Release Agreement. 
 4.    Preservation of
Employment Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Release Agreement, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of the Employment Agreement, to which this Release Agreement is attached as Exhibit B, shall remain

Claims. Except as required by lawful subpoena or other legal obligation, Executive agrees not to make any oral or written statement that disparages or places the Company and its affiliates (including any of their past or present officers,
employees, products or services) in a false or negative light, or to encourage or assist any person or entity who may or who has filed a lawsuit, claim or complaint against the Released Parties (as defined in Paragraph 3 above). If Executive
receives any subpoena or becomes subject to any legal obligation that implicates this Paragraph 6, Executive will provide prompt written notice of that fact to the Company with a copy to Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP at the addresses provided in
Paragraph 13 of the Employment Agreement, and will enclose a copy of the subpoena and any other documents describing the legal obligation.

state, or federal act, statute, or constitution, or susceptible of inflicting any damages or injury on Executive, and the Company specifically denies any such wrongdoing or violation. This Release Agreement is entered into solely to resolve fully
all matters related to or arising out of Executive’s employment with and termination from the Company, and its execution and implementation may not be used as evidence and shall not be admissible in a subsequent proceeding of any kind, except
one alleging a breach of this Release Agreement.

Company prevails in a legal or equitable action claiming that the other party has breached this Release Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party the reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by the

 9.    Severability. The provisions of this Release Agreement shall be
severable and the invalidity of any provision shall not affect the validity of the other provisions; provided, however, that upon a finding by a court of competent jurisdiction that any release or agreement in Paragraph 3 is illegal,

 Exhibit D 
 Excise Tax Gross-up Payment 
 (1)    In the event that the Total Payments (as
defined in Paragraph 3(g) of the Agreement) cause Executive’s “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code to equal or to exceed three times the Executive’s “base amount” within the
meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code (the “Trebled Base Amount”) by an amount which is not greater than 10% of the Trebled Base Amount, the Total Payments shall be reduced (or eliminated) such that no portion of the Total
Payments is subject to the Excise Tax (as defined in Paragraph 3(g) of the Agreement). Reductions shall be made first to those Total Payments arising under the terms of this Agreement. 
 (2)    In the event that the Total Payments cause the parachute payments to exceed 110% of the Trebled Base Amount, the Company shall
pay to the Executive at the time specified below, an additional amount determined as set forth below (the “Gross-up Payment”). The Gross-up Payment shall be made with respect to the amount which equals 100% of the Executive’s
“excess parachute payments” subject to the Excise Tax. The Gross-up Payment shall be an amount such that the net amount retained by Executive with respect to the Total Payments after reduction for any Excise Tax on the Total Payments and
any federal, state and local income or employment tax and Excise Tax payable by the Executive on the Gross-up Payment hereunder (provided that such amount is actually paid when due) shall be equal to the amount of the Total Payments that the
Executive would retain if the Total Payments did not constitute parachute payments. 
 (3)     For purposes of
determining whether any of the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of any Excise Tax: 
 (a)    The Total Payments shall be treated as “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and all “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of
Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless, and except that to the extent that, in the written opinion of independent legal counsel, compensation consultants or auditors of nationally recognized
standing (“Independent Advisors”) selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive, the Total Payments (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute payments, or such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part)
represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in excess of the base amount within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code or are otherwise not subject to the
Excise Tax; 
 (b)    The amount of the Total Payments which shall be treated as subject to the Excise
Tax shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the total amount of the Total Payments or (ii) the total amount of excess parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code (after applying Paragraph 3(a) above); and

  

 D-1 

 (c)    The value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment or
benefit shall be determined by the Independent Advisors in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. 
 (4)    The Gross-up Payment provided for above or any payment made under this Exhibit D shall be paid no later than the end of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which Executive remits the
Excise Tax to the applicable taxing authority; provided, however, that, to the extent that such Gross-Up Payment constitutes deferred compensation under Code Section 409A that is payable on account of Executive’s Separation
from Service and such Gross-up Payment is subject to the six (6) month delay provisions of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(2), such payment shall be subject to the payment delay provisions of
Paragraph 3(m). In the event that the Excise Tax is subsequently determined to be less than the amount taken into account hereunder in the Gross-up Payment, Executive shall repay to the Company at the time that the amount of such reduction in Excise
Tax is finally determined (but, if previously paid to the taxing authorities, not prior to the time the amount of such reduction is refunded to Executive or otherwise realized as a benefit by Executive) the portion of the Gross-up Payment that would
not have been paid if such Excise Tax had been applied to initially calculating the Gross-up Payment, plus interest on the amount of such repayment at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code. In the event that the Excise Tax is
determined to exceed the amount taken into account hereunder at the time the Gross-up Payment is made (including by reason of any payment the existence or amount of which cannot be determined at the time of the Gross Up Payment), the Company shall
pay an additional Gross Up Payment and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless in respect of such excess (plus any interest and penalties with respect to such excess) at the time that the amount of such excess is finally determined, but in no
event shall any such Gross-up Payment(s) be made later than the end of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which Executive remits the Excise Tax to the applicable taxing authority.
