Any bonus awarded or paid to the Executive will be subject to the discretion of the Board.

(c) Incentive Awards. The Executive shall be granted a stock option to purchase 90,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option”) and an award of restricted stock units covering 30,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Restricted Stock Unit Award”), subject to the approval of the Board in all respects, including the terms described herein. The per share exercise price of the Option will be equal to the per share fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Board of Directors.

(i) as of the date of termination of Employment, Executive shall immediately conditionally vest in an additional number of shares under all outstanding options and restricted stock units as if the Executive had performed twelve (12) additional months of service, subject to Executive’s execution of the General Release Agreement described above with irrevocable effect and suspension of exercise rights with respect to such conditionally vested shares until such execution;

(ii) the Company shall pay the Executive, in a lump sum upon the effectiveness of the General Release to be executed by Executive in accordance with Section 6(a) above, an amount equal to: (x) the then current year’s Target Bonus prorated for the number of

days of Executive is employed in said year; (y) one year’s Base Salary; and (z) the greater of the then current year’s Target Bonus or the actual prior year’s bonus. The Executive’s Base Salary shall be paid at the rate in effect at the time of the termination of Employment.

If Subsection (b) or (c) above applies, and if the Executive elects to continue the Executive’s health insurance coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) following the termination of Employment, then the Company shall pay the Executive’s monthly premium under COBRA for COBRA coverage for the Executive until the earliest of (i) 12 months following the termination of the Executive’s Employment, or (ii) the date upon which the Executive commences employment with an entity other than the Company. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA benefits without potentially violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company will in lieu thereof provide to the Executive a taxable monthly payment in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that the Executive would be required to pay to continue the Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of the Executive’s termination of employment (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), which payments will be made regardless of whether the Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage.

(f) Definition of “Good Reason.” Except as noted below, for all purposes under this Agreement, subject to the notice and cure period described below, the Executive’s resignation for “Good Reason” shall mean the Executive’s resignation upon written notice to the Company delivered within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any one or more of the following events and with an effective date within such ninety- (90-) day period; provided, however, that 6(f)(ii) of this definition shall apply only in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement:

(i) The Executive’s position, authority or responsibilities being significantly reduced;

(ii) For purposes of a termination upon the occurrence of a Change in Control pursuant to Section 6(c) only, the Executive being asked to relocate the Executive’s principal place of employment such that the Executive’s commuting distance from the Executive’s residence prior to such relocation is increased by over thirty-five (35) miles;

(iv) The Executive’s benefits being materially reduced.

The Executive shall provide written notice to the Company at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of Executive’s resignation, identifying the event or events Executive claims constitute Good Reason and describing in reasonable detail the fact supporting the claim. The Company shall have at least thirty (30) days to take action to remedy the condition claimed by the Executive as Good Reason, but shall have no obligation to take such action. In the event the Company remedies the condition then Good Reason shall be deemed not to exist.

Executive’s resignation based on the Company’s remedy of the condition, (B) chooses to resign anyway notwithstanding such remedy, or (C) claims the condition has not been remedied and chooses to resign based on a claim of Good Reason. In the absence of such notice, Executives resignation shall become effective and Executive shall be deemed to have resigned without Good Reason.

(g) Definition of “Change of Control.” For all purposes under this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean any of the following:

(i) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company;

(ii) the acquisition of more than fifty percent (50%) of the common stock of the Company (with all classes or series thereof treated as a single class) by any person or group of persons;

(h) Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to the Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits”) will be paid or otherwise provided until the Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. Any Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits due to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise on or within the six-month period following Executive’s termination will accrue during such six-month period and will become payable in a lump sum payment on the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s termination, provided, that such cash severance or other benefits will be paid earlier, at the times and on the terms set forth in the applicable provisions of this Agreement, if the Company reasonably determines that the imposition of additional tax under Code Section 409A, will not apply to an earlier payment of such cash severance or other benefits. Any amount paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations or that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations will not constitute Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits to the extent permissible under the applicable Treasury Regulations. In addition, this Agreement will be deemed amended to

the extent necessary to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to Executive under Code Section 409A and any temporary, proposed or final Treasury Regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder and the parties agree to cooperate with each other and to take reasonably necessary steps in this regard.
