For good and valuable consideration, you and 3D Systems agree to amend the Second Letter as follows:

 

1.The second paragraph of the Section entitled “Separation Without Cause” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language:

 

“If your secondment is terminated without cause, 3D Systems shall pay you a severance payment in exchange for a customary release of all potential claims against 3D Systems and in full settlement of all post-employment obligations due to you by the Company, in a lump sum equal to 8.5 months’ base salary calculated on your current salary. In addition, the Company will pay you a lump sum amount in consideration of continued health benefits coverage equal to the amount of US-based benefits continuation under COBRA for an 8.5-month period.”

You agree to cooperate with the Company in the timely filing of all U.S. tax returns. You acknowledge and agree that any severance payment may be offset by any amounts reimbursed to you that are otherwise due to the Company if not paid to the company within ten (10) days following your receipt.
