WHEREAS, the Executive is currently employed by the Company as its Chief Executive Officer and is a licensed radiation oncologist who provides medical services at the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ radiation therapy centers;

WHEREAS, the Executive, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, 21st Century Oncology, Inc., formerly known as Radiation Therapy Services, Inc., are currently parties to an Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement dated effective as of June 11, 2012 (as amended from time to time, the “Prior Executive Agreement”), and the Executive is currently party to an Amended and Restated Physician Employment Agreement, dated as of June 11, 2012, with 21st Century Oncology, LLC (“21st Century Oncology”), a Florida limited liability company (as amended from time to time, the “Prior Physician Agreement” and, together with the Prior Executive Agreement, the “Prior Agreements”), which Prior Agreements will be superseded by this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure itself of the continued services of the Executive for the period provided in this Agreement and the Executive is willing to serve in the employ of the Company for such period upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. EMPLOYMENT. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive upon the terms and conditions herein contained, and the Executive hereby agrees to accept such employment for the term described below. The Executive agrees to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer during the term of this Agreement. In such capacity, the Executive shall have the authorities, functions, powers, duties and responsibilities that are customarily associated with such position and as the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) may reasonably assign to him from time to time consistent with such positions. The parties have outlined certain of the material aspects of Executive’s responsibilities and authority on the attached Exhibit A. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Executive to be a member of the Company’s Board throughout the term of this Agreement and shall include the Executive in the management slate for election as director.

Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall devote his best efforts and substantially all of his business time and services to the business and affairs of the Company. The Executive currently serves on the board of directors of the entities set forth on the attached Exhibit B. Nothing herein shall preclude Executive from (i) providing physician services for up to two (2) days per week, (ii) serving or continuing to serve on the board of directors of entities that do not compete with the Company and to the extent such service does not materially interfere with Executive’s performance under this Agreement; provided that Executive will not agree to serve or actually serve on the board of directors of any entity for which he has not previously served without first notifying the Board or (iii) serving or continuing to serve on the boards or advisory committees of medical, charitable or other similar organizations to the extent such service does not materially interfere with Executive’s performance under this Agreement. As periodically requested by the Board, Executive shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Board in determining whether Executive’s membership on the board of directors or any other involvement with any entity could reasonably be expected to result in health care compliance issues or liability for the Company or any of its subsidiaries, affiliates and/or joint ventures and to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Board to remedy and/or mitigate any such issues or liability identified by the Board.

2. TERM OF AGREEMENT. The initial five (5) year term (the “Initial Term”) of employment under this Agreement shall commence as of the date of this Agreement (the “Effective Date”). After the expiration of the Initial Term, the term of the Executive’s employment hereunder shall automatically be extended without further action by the parties for successive two (2) year renewal terms, provided that if either party gives the other party at least one hundred twenty (120) days advance written notice of its intention to not renew this Agreement for an additional term, the Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration of the current term.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement immediately before the end of the initial term or any renewal term, subject to a continuing obligation to make the payments, if any, required under Section 5 below, if the Executive (i) becomes Disabled (as defined in Section 5(c) below), (ii) is terminated by the Company for Cause or without Cause or (iii) voluntarily terminates his employment for Good Reason or for any other reason or no reason before the then current term of this Agreement expires.

3. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

(a) Annual Base Salary. The Executive shall receive an annual base salary during the term of this Agreement at a rate of not less than One Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000) (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to this Agreement, the “Base Salary”), payable in installments consistent with the Company’s normal payroll schedule. The Board or its Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) shall review this Base Salary at annual intervals, and may, but shall not be obligated to, adjust the Base Salary from time to time as the Board or the Compensation Committee deems to be appropriate. In addition, the Company shall pay all medical malpractice insurance premiums related to the Executive’s employment including “tail” coverage after termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(b) Performance Incentive Bonus. The Executive shall also be entitled to receive an annual performance-based incentive bonus from the Company during the term of this Agreement with a target bonus amount not less than 100% of the Base Salary (as the Board may, but shall not be obligated to adjust from time to time, the “Target Bonus”), based upon the attainment of one or more pre-established performance goals established by the Board or the Company’s Compensation Committee; provided, that the bonus amount paid annually to the Executive shall not be less than Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000). The bonus amount to be paid to the Executive with respect to any given year shall be referred to as the Executive’s “Bonus.” The Bonus shall be paid within the thirty (30)-day period following the Board’s receipt of the Company’s audited financial statements with respect to the applicable performance period, and shall be payable in cash; provided, that to receive any such Bonus, the Executive must remain employed and in good standing at the time of payment.

(c) Incentive Equity Grant. In consideration of the Executive’s entering into this Agreement and as an inducement to remain with the Company, the Executive shall be granted, under the Company’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) an award of shares of the Company’s common stock with a value equal to One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) in the form of restricted stock (the “Restricted Stock”), with award shall be divided evenly into a time-vesting tranche (“Tranche 1 Shares”) and a performance-vesting tranche (“Tranche 2 Shares”) (the “Initial Award”). Such Initial Award shall be governed by the Incentive Plan and a restricted stock award agreement between the Executive and the Company. Subject to terms of the Incentive Plan and the Restricted Stock award agreement, the Tranche 1 Shares shall be subject time-based vesting restrictions which shall lapse pro rata on each of the first three (3) anniversaries of the grant date. The Tranche 2 Shares shall be subject to both (i) time-based vesting restrictions which shall lapse pro rata on each of the first two (2) anniversaries of the grant date, and (ii) the achievement of performance-based goals that shall be set forth by the Committee (as defined in the Incentive Plan) in the award agreement. In addition, and subject to the Executive’s continued employment pursuant to this Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled to receive a subsequent award substantially identical to the Initial Award on each anniversary of the grant date of the Initial Award; provided, that the Committee shall have absolute discretion to alter the relevant performance goals of the Tranche 2 Shares in subsequent grant agreements, notwithstanding the performance goals set forth in the Initial Award grant agreement or any subsequent grant agreement. In the event of any conflict or ambiguity between this Agreement and the Incentive Plan or the Restricted Stock award agreement(s), the Incentive Plan and the Restricted Stock award agreement(s) shall govern.

(d) Additional Bonuses. The Executive shall also receive such additional bonuses, stock options, restricted stock and other equity awards agreed to by the parties and as awarded by the Board or its Compensation Committee including awards under the Incentive Plan. To the extent such bonuses or awards are set forth in a separate written bonus or award agreement, such agreement shall govern in the event of any conflict or ambiguity between this Agreement and such bonus or award agreement.

4. ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS. The Executive shall receive the following additional compensation and welfare and fringe benefits:

(a) Participation in Benefit Plans. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in the employee benefit plans and programs maintained by the Company from time to time for its executives, or for its employees generally, including without limitation any life, medical, dental, accidental and disability insurance and profit sharing, pension, retirement, savings, stock option, incentive stock and deferred compensation plans, in accordance with the terms and conditions as in effect from time to time.

(b) Vacation. The Executive shall be entitled to no less than six weeks of vacation (or such greater vacation benefits as may be provided in the future by the Board or Compensation Committee) during each year during the term of this Agreement and any extensions thereof, prorated for partial years. During the Executive’s term of employment, the Executive may take additional time away from the practice to attend professional meetings and seminars with the reasonable expenses paid for by the Company with the prior approval of the Company. All time away from practice, including time for vacation and continuing medical education, shall be scheduled with the Company.

(c) Business Expenses. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable expenses he incurs in promoting the Company’s business, including expenses for travel, entertainment of business associates, service and usage charges for business use of cellular phones, PDA or Blackberry, laptop computer, computer at home and at work, personal secretary and similar items, upon presentation by the Executive from time to time of an itemized account of such expenditures.

(d) Other. In addition to the benefits provided pursuant Sections 4(a), 4(b) and 4(c), the Executive shall be eligible to participate in such other executive compensation and retirement plans of the Company as are available generally to other officers, and in such welfare benefit plans, programs, practices and policies of the Company as are generally applicable to other key employees, including any deferred compensation plan made generally available to the senior officers of the Company. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain on behalf of Executive long-term disability insurance coverage at the Company’s expense during the term of the Agreement on such terms and conditions as are standard in the industry. Executive shall be entitled to use the Company’s corporate jet in a manner consistent with past practice, and, in addition to use of the plane in connection with the conduct of business on behalf of the Company, he will be entitled to 300 hours of usage per year for personal use. The Company shall also reimburse the Executive for his reasonable, out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the Company’s incentive equity plan documents.

5. PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION.

(a) Involuntary Termination. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company during the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled to receive

his Base Salary accrued and unpaid through the date of termination (the “Termination Date”) and his earned and unpaid Bonus, if any, for the fiscal year ending prior to the Termination Date. The Executive shall also receive any nonforfeitable benefits already earned and payable to him under the terms of any deferred compensation, incentive or other benefit plan maintained by the Company, payable in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan. The payments and benefits that the Executive shall be entitled to pursuant to this Section 5(a) are collectively referred to as the Executive’s “Accrued Compensation”.

(b) Severance Payments. If the Executive’s employment is terminated (i) by the Company without Cause or (ii) by the Executive for Good Reason, in addition to payment of the Accrued Compensation, the Company shall also be obligated to make a series of monthly payments to the Executive for a period of twenty-four (24) months immediately following the Termination Dates; provided, further, that the first monthly payment shall be made on the first payroll period after the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date and shall include payment of any amounts that would otherwise be due prior thereto. Each monthly payment shall be equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the sum of (x) the Executive’s annual Base Salary, as in effect on the Termination Date, plus (y) the amount equal to the (i) sum of the Executive’s Bonus for the three prior years divided by (ii) three. Executive shall also be permitted, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to continue to participate at the Company’s expense in all benefit and insurance plans, coverage and programs in which he was participating immediately prior to the Termination Date, for a period of one (1) year from the Termination Date (Executive will reasonably cooperate with the Company to facilitate the continuation of such benefits, including, without limitation, electing “COBRA” coverage as required by the Company); provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Company may modify the continuation coverage contemplated by this Section 5(b) to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid the imposition of any excise taxes on the Company for failure to comply with the nondiscrimination requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, as amended (to the extent applicable) including instead making cash payments to the Executive over the same period in monthly installments in an amount equal to the Company’s portion of the monthly cost of providing such benefits for such period. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or benefit contemplated by this paragraph.

(c) Disability. The Company shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement, if the Board determines that the Executive has been unable to attend to his duties for at least one-hundred and twenty (120) days because of a medically diagnosable physical or mental condition, and has received a written opinion from a physician acceptable to the Board that such condition prevents the Executive from resuming full performance of his duties at such time and during the succeeding 120 days or is likely to continue for an indefinite period (any such condition, a “Disability”). If the Company terminates this Agreement due to Executive’s Disability, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Compensation and any disability benefits payable pursuant to any long-term disability plan or other disability program or insurance policies maintained or provided by the Company.

(d) Termination for Cause. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, the amount the Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company shall be limited to the Accrued Compensation.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall be limited to (i) any action by the Executive involving willful disloyalty to the Company, such as embezzlement, fraud, misappropriation of corporate assets or a breach of the covenants set forth in Sections 8 and 9 below; (ii) the Executive being convicted of or entering a plea of guilty or no contest or similar plea with respect to, a felony; (iii) the Executive being convicted of or entering a plea of guilty or no contest or similar plea with respect to, any lesser crime or offense (x) committed in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder, (y) involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude or (z) that causes the Company or any of its subsidiaries a substantial and material financial detriment; (iv) substantial neglect or willful misconduct in carrying out Executive’s material duties (other than resulting from the Executive’s Disability) or violations of policies of the Company and/or its subsidiaries resulting in material harm to the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (v) substantial and repeated failure, refusal or inability (except where due to illness or Disability) to perform Executive’s material duties hereunder; (vi) a final and unappealable suspension, revocation, or cancellation of the Executive’s license or right to perform medical services in the State of Florida, other than for any revocation or cancellation of the Executive’s license as a result of failure to renew or other clerical error that is cured within 30 days following notice of cancellation or revocation to the Executive; (vii) the final and unappealable placing or imposing of any restrictions or limitations, by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Executive, upon the Executive so that the Executive cannot engage in the medical services contemplated hereunder, other than as a result of any clerical error that is cured within 30 days following notice of cancellation or revocation to the Employee; or (ix) the Executive is suspended, terminated or excluded from the Medicare or Medicaid program as a participating physician. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no termination pursuant to subsection (iv) or (v) shall be treated as termination for Cause unless the Board has provided the Executive with written notice specifying in reasonable detail the alleged Cause for termination and the Cause is not cured within 30 days after the date of such notice.

(e) Voluntary Termination by the Executive. If the Executive resigns or otherwise voluntarily terminates his employment and the termination is not for Good Reason, the Executive shall only be entitled to the Accrued Compensation upon such termination.

For purposes of this Agreement, a termination by the Executive shall be for “Good Reason” if the Executive resigns during the period of three months after the date the Executive is (i) assigned to a position other than Chief Executive Officer of the Company (other than any such assignment for Cause or by reason of Disability) without the Executive’s consent, (ii) assigned duties materially inconsistent with such position (other than any such assignment for Cause or by reason of Disability) without the Executive’s consent, and such assignment is not rectified within 15 business days after written notice to the Company, (iii) transferred to a geographic location of employment more than 30 miles from the current location of employment

without the Executive’s consent, (iv) directed to report to anyone other than the Board, without the Executive’s consent, or (v) the Company materially breaches any material term of this Agreement; provided that no breach of this Agreement by the Company shall be deemed to constitute “Good Reason” unless the Executive provides the Board with written notice specifying in reasonable detail the alleged breach and such breach is not cured within 30 days after the date of such notice.

(f) Release. In order to receive the severance payments and benefits hereunder (other than the Accrued Compensation), the Executive must execute and not revoke a general release of claims in favor of the Company and the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. To the extent that such release is not executed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation, if applicable) within sixty (60) days following the Termination Date, the Executive shall forfeit all rights to any such severance payments and benefits.

(g) In the event that any payment or benefits received or to be received by Executive pursuant to this Agreement (“Benefits”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any comparable successor provisions, and (ii) but for this subsection, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or any comparable successor provisions (the “Excise Tax”), then the Benefits shall be either: (i) provided to Executive in full, or (ii) provided to Executive as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, when taking into account applicable federal, state, local and foreign income and employment taxes, the Excise Tax, and any other applicable taxes, results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under the Excise Tax. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this subsection shall be made in writing in good faith by an accountant selected by the mutual agreement of Executive and the Company (the “Accountant”). The Company shall bear all costs the Accountant may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this subsection. To the extent applicable, the reduction in Benefits contemplated by this paragraph shall be implemented by reducing the Benefits in the following order: (i) any cash severance or other cash amount payable to the Executive hereunder, and (ii) any continued benefit valued as a “parachute payment” for purposes of Section 280G of the Code.

6. DEATH. If the Executive dies during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Executive’s estate a lump sum payment equal to the sum of (i) the Executive’s Accrued Compensation, plus (ii) the product of (x) the Board’s good faith estimated annual Bonus for the fiscal year during which the death occurs based on the performance of the Company at the time of death and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole and partial months in the fiscal year in which the death occurs through the date of death, and the denominator of which is 12. In addition, the death benefits payable by reason of the Executive’s death under any retirement, deferred compensation or other employee benefit plan maintained by the Company shall be paid to the beneficiary designated by the Executive in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or plans.

7. WITHHOLDING. The Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to withhold and deduct from any payment hereunder any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to any such payment.

8. PROTECTION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Executive agrees that he will keep all confidential and proprietary information of the Company or relating to its business (including, but not limited to, information regarding the Company’s customers, pricing policies, methods of operation, proprietary computer programs and trade secrets) (“Confidential Information”) confidential, and that he will not (except with the Company’s prior written consent), while in the employ of the Company or at any time thereafter, disclose any such Confidential Information to any person, firm, corporation, association or other entity, other than in furtherance of his duties hereunder, and then only to those with a “need to know.” The Executive shall not make use of any such Confidential Information for his own purposes or for the benefit of any person, firm, corporation, association or other entity (except the Company) under any circumstances during or at any time after the term of his employment. The foregoing shall not apply to any information which is already in the public domain, or is generally disclosed by the Company or is otherwise in the public domain at the time of disclosure, except if such information is in the public domain as a result of the Executive’s actions in contravention of this Section 8.

The Executive recognizes that because his work for the Company will bring him into contact with Confidential Information of the Company, the restrictions of this Section 8 are required for the reasonable protection of the Company and its investments and for the Company’s reliance on and confidence in the Executive.

9. PROHIBITION OF CERTAIN ACTIVITIES. The Executive acknowledges that (i) the Executive performs services of a unique nature for the Company that are irreplaceable, and that the Executive’s performance of such services to a competing business will result in irreparable harm to the Company, (ii) the Executive has had and will continue to have access to Confidential Information which, if disclosed, would unfairly and inappropriately assist in competition against the Company or any of its affiliates, (iii) in the course of the Executive’s employment by a competitor, the Executive would inevitably use or disclose such Confidential Information, (iv) the Company and its affiliates have substantial relationships with their patients and the Executive has had and will continue to have access to these patients, (v) the Executive has received and will receive specialized training from the Company and its affiliates, and (vi) the Executive has generated and will continue to generate goodwill for the Company and its affiliates in the course of the Executive’s employment. In consideration of the foregoing, as well as the transactions contemplated hereby, the Executive hereby covenants and agrees that he will not, for a period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending three (3) years after such Executive’s Termination Date, (i) engage in any business activities for himself or on behalf of any enterprise in any capacity or own any interest in any entity which compete or are competitive with the Company in the business of organizing, establishing, developing, providing or managing integrated cancer care services or services ancillary thereto, in any state in which the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates and/or any of its joint ventures then operate or has plans to operate as of the Executive’s Termination Date, (ii) interfere or disrupt or attempt to interfere or disrupt, the relationships between the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates and/or joint ventures and any patient, referral source or supplier or other person having business relationships with the

Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates and/or joint ventures, (iii) solicit, induce or hire, or attempt to solicit, induce or hire, any employee of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates and/or joint ventures or (iv) publish or make any disparaging statements about the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or any of their directors, officers or employees, under circumstances where it is reasonably foreseeable that the statements will be made public (the activities described in clauses (i) through (iv) above, collectively, “Prohibited Activities”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9 will be of no force and effect for the period (the “Toll Period”) during which the Company fails to make the payments, if any, required under Section 5(b) and such payments are in fact due and payable pursuant to Section 5(b), provided that the Toll Period shall not take effect unless the Executive provides the Board with written notice that such payments are due and payable and the Company does not make such payments within 30 days after the date of such notice; provided, however that the following shall not be deemed Prohibited Activities under clause (i) above: (x) owning an ownership interest or participation on the board of directors during the term of this Agreement or thereafter in (i) activities related to imaging initiatives, it being understood that such activities are not and will not become competitive with the business of the Company, its subsidiaries, managed practices and/or any of its joint ventures, (ii) pharmacies, (iii) banks or (iv) health care related insurance companies, PPOs and HMOs; provided that (A) Executive’s participation with any entity listed in clause (x) does not materially interfere with Executive’s performance under this Agreement and (B) no entity listed in clause (x) owns or operates and is not under common control with any entity that owns or operates integrated cancer care services or (y) engaging in the practice of medicine, individually or as part of a group practice of five (5) or less radiation oncologists following the termination or expiration of this Agreement; provided, that neither the Executive’s individual or group practice (i) has affiliated relationships with any other physician practices or (ii) has more than one geographic location. The Executive will be deemed to be engaged in Prohibited Activities if he engages or participates in any entity that engages in Prohibited Activities or becomes affiliated with any person who engages in Prohibited Activities as an employee, officer, director, consultant, agent, partner, proprietor or other participant; provided, that the ownership of no more than 2 percent of the stock of a publicly traded corporation shall not be deemed participation in or affiliation with an entity or person so long as the Executive has no other connection or relationship with such entity or person.

10. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult to fully compensate the Company for damages resulting from the breach or threatened breach of the covenants set forth in Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement and accordingly agrees that the Company shall be entitled to temporary and injunctive relief, including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, to enforce such provisions in any action or proceeding instituted in the United States District Court for the Western District of Florida or in any court in the State of Florida having subject matter jurisdiction. This provision with respect to injunctive relief shall not, however, diminish the Company’s right to claim and recover damages.

It is expressly understood and agreed that although the parties consider the restrictions contained in this Agreement to be reasonable, if a court determines that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in this Agreement is an unenforceable restriction on the activities of the Executive, no such provision of this Agreement shall be rendered void but

shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be reasonable.

The Executive acknowledges and confirms that (a) the restrictive covenants contained in Sections 8 and 9 hereof are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and (b) the restrictions contained in Sections 8 and 9 hereof (including without limitation the length of the term of the provisions of Sections 8 and 9 hereof) are not overbroad, overlong, or unfair and are not the result of overreaching, duress or coercion of any kind. The Executive further acknowledges and confirms that his full and faithful observance of each of the covenants contained in Sections 8 and 9 hereof will not cause him any undue hardship, financial or otherwise, and that enforcement of each of the covenants contained herein will not impair his ability to obtain employment commensurate with his abilities and on terms fully acceptable to him or otherwise to obtain income required for the comfortable support of him and his family and the satisfaction of the needs of his creditors. The Executive acknowledges and confirms that his special knowledge of the business of the Company is such as would cause the Company serious injury or loss if he were to use such ability and knowledge to the benefit of a competitor or were to compete with the Company in violation of the terms of Sections 8 and 9 hereof. The Executive further acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 8 and 9 hereof are intended to be, and shall be, for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by, the Company’s successors and assigns.

If the Executive shall be in violation of any provision of Sections 8 and 9, then each time limitation set forth in the applicable section shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation or violations occur. If the Company seeks injunctive relief from such violation in any court, then the covenants set forth in Sections 8 and 9 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the pendency of such proceeding including all appeals by the Executive.

Sections 7 through 17 of this Agreement shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the

expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(c) All expenses or other reimbursements under this Agreement shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by the Executive (provided that if any such reimbursements constitute taxable income to the Executive, such reimbursements shall be paid no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expenses to be reimbursed were incurred), and no such reimbursement or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year.

(d) For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.

(e) In no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be offset by any other payment pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
