The Employee shall perform all of the normal and customary responsibilities, duties and authorities customarily accorded to, and expected of the position of a Chief Science Officer, and such other reasonable duties as may be designated by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company from time to time. Services performed pursuant to this Agreement shall be performed at such place(s) and times as shall be mutually agreeable to the Company and Employee and during such hours so as not to conflict with Employee’s other employment at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (“MIT”). The Employee and the Company shall meet on a quarterly basis to determine such performance of services for the next quarterly period. The Employee shall, in good faith, make best efforts to attend meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company, and/or tradeshows and other relevant conferences on behalf of the Company as the Company may reasonably request up to one year in advance of such events. The Company agrees that the Employee shall not be obligated to attend any such events following the termination of his employment with the Company, regardless of the reasons for such termination. The specific services that are the subject of this Agreement, and any additions or modifications to the limits contained in this Section, shall be described on Schedule 1 attached hereto, to be determined in good faith by the parties within two months of the date hereof. The Company agrees that the Employee shall not have to perform any services for the Company if the performance of such services may conflict with the Employee’s obligations or duties to MIT. The Employee agrees to comply with all applicable policies and rules of Company, provided that such compliance does not conflict with the Employee’s obligations to MIT; provided further that the Employee shall provide prompt written notice to the Company of any change from the Employee’s obligations to MIT as of the date of this Agreement.

During the Employee’s employment, the Employee shall faithfully and honestly serve the Company and, subject to the next sentence, initially devote forty-nine percent (49%) of the Employee’s working time to the business and affairs of the Company or, where applicable, any subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company (individually a “Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Subsidiaries”), including the Employee’s role in the Position and other duties, if any. The Employee and the Company may adjust the Employee’s part-time status-percentage from time to time by mutual agreement. The Employee shall use his best efforts to promote the interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Employee from:

(a)            engaging in charitable, education, communal or recreational activities; or

(b)            engaging in another business enterprise as a passive investor; provided that in no event shall the Employee own more than 4.9% of any other business enterprise and further provided that no such business enterprise shall be a direct competitor in the specific field of robotics intended to assist, evaluate, or rehabilitate a person with physical impairments (“Rehab Robotics”) of the Company or its Subsidiaries; or

However, the engagements described in 1.3(a) – (c) above shall only be permissible so long as they do not result in a contravention of Article 3 hereof, or impair the ability of the Employee to discharge his duties to the Company hereunder. In that regard, the Employee hereby acknowledges that, generally, other than any time required by Employee’s employment with MIT (or any other Non-Profit Entity but subject to the other terms of this Agreement), it is expected the Employee will not devote any significant portion of his time to any such matters during regular business hours.

In addition, the Employee shall truly and faithfully account for and deliver to the Company and its Subsidiaries, all money, securities and things of value belonging to the Company or the Subsidiaries which the Employee may from time to time receive for, from or on account of the Company or the Subsidiaries.

ARTICLE 2 - COMPENSATION

2.1            Base Salary. The Employee’s full-time annual base salary will be two hundred eighteen thousand dollars ($218,000).

Initially, the Company and the Employee agree that the employee’s part-time percentage shall be forty-nine percent (49%), which is deemed to correspond to salary at the annualized rate of one hundred nine thousand dollars ($109,000). The Employee and the Company may adjust the Employee’s part-time status percentage from time to time by mutual agreement. Furthermore, in the event the Employee’s part-time status percentage decreases as a result of the Employee’s obligations to MIT, the Company and the Employee shall in good faith determine a proportionate and corresponding adjustment to the Employee’s compensation hereunder. All salary payments the Employee receives from the Company will be in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices in effect from time to time, and subject to applicable statutory deductions and withholding required by law.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at the time of the Employee’s separation from service with the Company he is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code (and the regulations thereunder) and any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such separation from service are subject to Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Employee) until the date that is six months following the Employee’s separation from service with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code), and the Company will pay any such delayed amounts in a lump sum at such time. If any other payments of money or other benefits due to the Employee hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A of the Code, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Company, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to the Employee under this Agreement constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to the Employee in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv). Each payment made under this Agreement shall be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. References to “termination of employment” and similar terms used in this Agreement are intended to refer to “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Whenever a payment under this Agreement may be paid within a specified period, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. In no event may the Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this Agreement. Any provision in this Agreement providing for any right of offset or set-off by the Company shall not permit any offset or set-off against payments of “non-qualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code or other amounts or payments to the extent that such offset or set-off would result in any violation of Section 409A or adverse tax consequences to the Employee under Section 409A.

6.12            Independent Legal Advice. The Employee acknowledges that he has been advised to seek independent legal counsel in respect of the Agreement and the matters contemplated herein. To the extent that he declines to receive independent legal counsel in respect of the Agreement, he waives the right, should a dispute later develop, to rely on his lack of independent legal counsel to avoid his obligations, to seek indulgences from the Company or to otherwise attack the integrity of the Agreement and the provisions thereof, in whole or in part.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF this Agreement has been executed by the parties hereto as of the date first written above.
