For each calendar year during the Term, Executive shall be eligible to receive additional awards under the Stock Plan (or any successor thereto), subject to the achievement of certain performance goals established by the Compensation Committee pursuant to the Stock Plan (each, an “Annual Award”), as described in Exhibit B.

5.Employee and Fringe Benefits; Expense Reimbursements.

(a)Employee Benefits. During the Term, Executive and his eligible dependents (if any) shall be able to participate in employee benefit plans and perquisite and fringe benefit programs on a basis no less favorable than the basis on which such benefits and perquisites are provided by the Company from time to time to other senior executive employees.

(b)Paid Time Off. Executive shall be entitled to unlimited paid vacation each year, provided such paid vacation does not disrupt the operations of the Company and Executive has taken adequate measures to ensure his job duties are performed during his vacation time. The rules relating to other absences from regular duties for holidays, sick or disability leave, leave of absence without pay, or for other reasons, shall be the same as those provided to the Company’s other senior executive employees.

(c)Expense Reimbursement. Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all travel and business expenses reasonably incurred and accounted for by Executive (in accordance with the policies and procedures established from time to time by the Company for Executive or as otherwise provided for in the Company’s approved travel budget) in performing services hereunder. Any reimbursement that Executive is entitled to receive shall (i) be paid as soon as practicable and in any event no later than the last day of Executive’s tax year following the tax year in which the expense was incurred, (ii) not be affected by any other expenses that are eligible for reimbursement in any tax year, and (iii) not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(d)Acceptance Incentives. As a material inducement to Executive’s acceptance of employment with the Company under this Agreement and in partial consideration for the covenants set forth in Sections 7 through 9 below, Executive shall receive or be entitled to receive the following acceptance incentives:

(i)Acceptance Bonus. Executive shall receive an acceptance bonus equal to:

(1)On the Effective Date, $412,500 in cash, paid as a single lump sum, less applicable withholdings; plus

(2)On March 29, 2019, non-qualified stock options for shares of Company Stock of $412,500 to induce Executive to commence employment on the Effective Date, with the grant of such non-qualified to be made as of the Effective Date. The number of shares subject to this non-qualified stock option grant will be calculated using the Black-Scholes model based on the Company Stock’s closing price on the Effective Date, rounded up to the nearest 50 shares. This non-qualified stock option grant shall be evidenced by a separate stock option agreement, which will reflect that the Effective Date is the grant date for the non-qulaified stock options, and shall provide for 33% vesting on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, 66% vesting on the second anniversary of the Effective Date and 100% vesting on the third anniversary of the Effective Date. Moreover, this non-qualified stock option grant shall be forfeited in the event Executive does not actually commence employment on the Effective Date. If, after the Effective Date, the Company thereafter terminates Executive’s employment without Cause or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, then the unvested portion of the non-qualified stock option grant shall immediately vest upon termination and the stock option shall remain exercisable until the end of the option’s original term. The terms of the non-qualified stock option agreement will be subject to, and governed by, the Stock Plan.

(ii)First two years of employment. Through that date which is the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Effective Date, as long as Executive remains employed under this Agreement:

(1)Travel Expenses. Company shall pay the cost of Executive’s airfare between Phoenix, Arizona, and Cleveland, Ohio, until such time that Executive has completed his move to Phoenix, Arizona. Executive’s travel eligible to be paid by the Company under this Section 5(d) shall be subject to the Company’s travel and reimbursement policies.

(2)Corporate Apartment. Company will reimburse Executive in a reasonable amount to be agreed upon by the Parties toward Executive’s rental or lease costs for an apartment in Phoenix, Arizona, until such time as Executive purchases a residence in the Phoenix, Arizona, metropolitan area.

(3)Automobile. Company will reimburse Executive in a reasonable amount to be agreed upon by the Parties to have one automobile shipped from Cleveland, Ohio, to Phoenix, Arizona.

(iii)Moving Expenses. It is anticipated that Executive will complete the move from his current residence in Cleveland, Ohio, to the Phoenix metropolitan area within two years of the Effective Date. Assuming so, then Executive will be entitled to the following:

(1)Automobile. In addition to the Company’s obligation set forth in Section 5(d)(ii)(3) above, Company will reimburse Executive in a reasonable amount to be agreed upon by the Parties to have an additional automobile shipped from Cleveland, Ohio, to Phoenix, Arizona.

(2)Personal Belongings. Company will reimburse Executive in a reasonable amount to be agreed upon by the Parties toward Executive’s costs of having his household belongings moved from Cleveland, Ohio, to Phoenix, Arizona, which will include the cost of professional packers and storage.

(3)Closing Costs. Company will reimburse Executive in a reasonable amount for real estate brokerage and closing costs associated with the sale of Executive’s existing home in Cleveland, Ohio and the closing costs associated with the purchase of his home in the Phoenix, Arizona area.

(4)Spousal Travel. Company will reimburse Executive toward the airfare costs to permit Executive’s spouse the opportunity to travel to Phoenix, Arizona, twice, for the express purpose of finding a residence in connection with Executive’s move to the Phoenix, Arizona, metropolitan area. Reimbursement will be limited to two trips, and the reimbursable amount for each trip shall be a reasonable amount to be agreed upon by the Parties. Reimbursement under this Section 5(d)(iii)(4) shall be subject to the Company’s travel and reimbursement policies.

(iv)Legal Expenses. Company will reimburse Executive up to $10,000 (ten thousand dollars) toward Executive’s expenses in obtaining legal counsel to assist Executive with the review and negotiation of this Agreement.

6.Termination of Employment. Except for the provisions intended to survive for other periods of time as specified in Section 16(m) below, this Agreement and Executive’s employment shall terminate (i) at any time upon mutual written agreement of the Parties; (ii) by the Company, immediately and without prior notice, for Cause as provided in Section 6(a); (iii) by Executive for Good Reason as provided in Section 6(b); (iv) immediately upon Executive’s Death or Disability as provided in Section 6(c); or (v) by the Company for any reason not otherwise covered by clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or (v) herein as provided in Section 6(b); or (vi) by Executive for any reason not otherwise covered by clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) herein with advance written notice as provided in Section 6(a).

(a)Termination for Cause; Voluntary Termination. At any time during the Term, (i) the Company may immediately terminate Executive’s employment for Cause, and (ii) Executive may terminate his employment “voluntarily” (that is, other than by Death, Disability or for Good Reason); provided, that Executive will be required to give the Board at least ninety (90) days’ advance written notice of any such termination; provided, however, that the Board may waive all or any part of the foregoing notice requirement in its sole discretion, in which case Executive’s voluntary termination will be effective upon the date specified by the Board. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause or by Executive’s voluntary termination, Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Obligations. All other benefits, if any, due to Executive following Executive’s termination of employment pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall be determined in accordance with the plans, policies, and practices of the Company as then in effect; provided, that Executive shall not be entitled to any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement or any other agreement or severance plan, policy, or program of the Company (excluding any group health benefit plans). Executive shall not earn or accrue any additional compensation or other benefits under this Agreement following the Termination Date.

(b)Termination for Good Reason by Executive or Without Cause by the Company. At any time, (x) Executive may terminate his employment for Good Reason; and (y) the Company may terminate Executive’s employment hereunder without Cause, in either case pursuant to this Section 6(b). Upon the termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Section 6(b), Executive shall receive the Accrued Obligations. In addition, and except as otherwise provided in Section 6(d), if applicable, and subject to Executive’s compliance with the requirements set forth Sections 7 through 9 of this Agreement and Executive’s execution, delivery, and non-revocation of an effective release of claims against the Company and certain related persons and entities in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Release”), which Release shall be delivered to Executive within five (5) business days following the Termination Date and which must be executed (and not revoked) by Executive within the time specified in the Release (the “Release Period”), Executive shall be entitled to the following severance benefits:

(i)Cash Severance. A cash severance payment, payable on that day which is sixty (60) days after Executive’s termination of employment, equal to the applicable Severance Multiplier times the sum of:

(1)Executive’s Base Salary in effect at termination of employment; plus

(2)The average Bonuses paid to Executive for the three (3) calendar years immediately preceding termination of employment (excluding any acceptance bonus under Section 5(d)(i)). If the foregoing three (3) calendar year period includes any year prior to the date Executive first became employed under this Agreement, then for averaging purposes, the bonus to be used for any such calendar year shall be based on Executive’s Bonus target opportunity in effect as of the Effective Date.

The “Severance Multiplier” that applies to Executive is:

(x)    If termination occurs prior to two (2) years after the Effective Date: two (2).

(y)    If termination occurs more than two years but prior to six (6) years after the Effective Date: one point five (1.5).

(z)    If termination occurs at least six (6) years after the Effective Date: one (1).

(ii)Accelerated Stock Option Vesting. Any stock option grants awarded to Executive that remain outstanding as of the date of termination shall immediately vest as provided below, if not previously vested, and shall remain exercisable for the remainder of the original term but not later than the 7th anniversary of the original date of grant:

(1)If termination occurs prior to two (2) years after the Effective Date: 100% of such grants shall be made immediately vested.

(2)If termination occurs more than two (2) years but prior to six (6) years after the Effective Date: 50% of any unvested portion of the stock options at the time of termination shall be made immediately vested.

(iii)Prorated Performance Based Share Awards. Executive will receive a pro-rata portion of all of Executive’s then-existing unvested Performance Based Share awards, with vesting to be determined based on actual performance as of the end of the applicable performance period. For each unvested Performance Based Share award, the pro-rata portion of such award shall be (1) the Performance Based Share award that would have been paid at the end of the applicable performance period had Executive not terminated employment (if any) multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that Executive is employed by the Company during applicable performance period, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the applicable performance period. Payment will be made at the same time(s) payment would have been paid had Executive not terminated employment.

(iv)If Executive timely and properly elects continuation health care coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Company will pay the COBRA premium required for Executive and Executive’s dependents (if any) under the Company’s group medical and dental plans for a period of up to twelve (12) months following the Executive’s termination of employment (or until such earlier time as Executive ceases to be eligible for COBRA coverage) (the “COBRA Premium”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA Premium without a substantial risk of violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company instead shall pay Executive, on the first day of each calendar month, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the applicable COBRA Premiums for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings.

(c)Termination Due to Death or Disability. In the event Executive’s employment under this Agreement is terminated on account of Executive’s Death or Disability, then:

(i)All stock option grants awarded to Executive prior to termination that remain outstanding as of the date of termination shall immediately vest, if not previously vested, and shall remain exercisable for the remainder of the original term but not later than the 7th anniversary of the original date of grant:

(ii)All then-existing unvested Performance Based Share Awards granted to Executive prior to termination that remain outstanding as of the date of termination will be prorated and paid in the same manner as provided in Section 6(b)(iii), above.

(d)Termination Due to Change in Control. Notwithstanding Section 6(b) to the Contrary, where Executive’s employment under this Agreement is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason within twelve (12) months after a Change in Control, then Executive shall receive the Accrued Obligations and, additionally, subject to Executive’s compliance with the requirements set forth Sections 7 through 9 of this Agreement and Executive’s execution, delivery, and non-revocation of an effective release of claims against the Company and certain related persons and entities in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Release”), which Release shall be delivered to Executive within five (5) business days following the Termination Date and which must be executed (and not revoked) by Executive within the time specified in the Release (the “Release Period”), Executive will be entitled to the following Change in Control severance benefits in lieu of (and not in addition to) the amounts otherwise payable to Executive under Section 6(b):

(i)A cash severance payment, payable on that day which is sixty (60) days after Executive’s termination of employment, equal to the sum of:

(1)Three (3) times Executive’s Base Salary in effect at termination of employment; plus

(2)Three (3) times the average Bonuses paid to Executive for the three (3) calendar years immediately preceding termination of employment (excluding any acceptance bonus under Section 5(d)(i)). If the foregoing three (3) calendar year period includes any year prior to the date Executive first became employed under this Agreement, then for averaging purposes, the Bonus to be used for any such calendar year shall be based on Executive’s Bonus target opportunity in effect as of the Effective Date.

(ii)Any stock option grants awarded to Executive that remain outstanding as of the date of termination shall immediately vest, if not previously vested, and shall remain exercisable for the remainder of the original term but not later than the 7th anniversary of the original date of grant.

(iii)Executive will be made vested in all of Executive’s then-existing unvested Performance Based Share awards, with vesting to be determined based on “target” levels (i.e., at 100%). Such vested awards shall be settled as provided in the underlying Performance Based Share award agreements.

(iv)If Executive timely and properly elects continuation health care coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Company will pay the COBRA premium required for Executive and Executive’s dependents (if any) under the Company’s group medical and dental plans for a period of up to twelve (12) months following the Executive’s termination of employment (or until such earlier time as Executive ceases to be eligible for COBRA coverage) (the “COBRA Premium”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA Premium without a substantial risk of violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company instead shall pay Executive, on the first day of each calendar month, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the applicable COBRA Premiums for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings.

(e)Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or by Executive shall be communicated by written notice of termination to the other party in accordance with this Section 6. Such notice shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall, to the extent applicable, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated.

7.Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

(a)Acknowledgements. Executive acknowledges:

(i)Company has provided and shall continue to provide Executive with its goodwill (a legitimate business interest of the Company) and Confidential Information so that Executive can perform his duties. Because Company would suffer irreparable harm if Executive misused its goodwill or disclosed Confidential Information, it is reasonable to protect the Company against misuse and disclosure of such information by Executive.

(ii)Because Executive will have continued access to and receive Confidential Information and will establish, maintain, and increase Company’s goodwill with its customers, employees and others, and because the services provided by Executive for Company are a significant factor in the creation of valuable, special, and unique assets that are expected to provide Company with a competitive advantage, Company would suffer irreparable harm if Executive competed unfairly with Company (as described more fully below). Accordingly, it is reasonable to protect Company against potential unfair competition by Executive.

(iii)The promises in this Section are reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company and are reasonably limited with respect to the activities they prohibit, their duration, and their effect on Executive and the public. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s provision of Confidential Information and grant of the Initial Award described in Section 4(c)(i) above shall each serve as adequate and independent consideration for the covenants set forth in this Section 7.

(b)Agreements Not to Compete or Solicit Employees or Customers. As a condition of employment and to protect Company’s Confidential Information and competitive position, Executive promises and agrees that during his employment and during the Restriction Period, Executive (whether as an employee, officer, director, partner, proprietor, investor, associate, consultant, advisor or otherwise) will not, directly or indirectly, either for his own benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity:

(i)Engage, invest in, or establish, in any capacity as either as an employee, employer, contractor, consultant, agent, principal, partner, member, stockholder, investor, corporate officer, director, or in any other individual or representative capacity any business that is a Restricted Business (except Executive is allowed to own or acquire 5% or less of the outstanding voting securities of a public company). Executive further promises that during Executive’s employment and the Restriction Period, Executive will not give advice or lend credit, money, or Executive’s reputation to any person or entity engaged in or establishing the Restricted Business.

(ii)Solicit, recruit, induce, entice, encourage, hire, directly recruit, or in any way cause any officer or manager who is or was an employee of Company within the twelve (12) months prior to Executive’s separation of employment, or after, to terminate his employment with Company. This restriction is limited to those employees with whom Executive worked, had business contact, or about whom Executive gained non-public or Confidential Information while employed with the Company.

(iii)Solicit, contact, or communicate with any person or company for the purpose of engaging in a business that is a Restricted Business at the time Executive’s employment ends, who was a customer of the Company during the twelve (12) months preceding Executive’s separation and whom Executive contacted, solicited, serviced, or sold services to as an Executive of the Company (either directly or indirectly as a supervisor) at any time during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of Executive’s separation. Executive also agrees not to induce any customer, supplier, or other person with whom the Company engaged in business, or to the knowledge of Executive planned or proposed to engage in business, during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of Executive’s separation, to terminate any commercial relationship with the Company.

(iv)The effective time period of the restrictions set forth in this Section 7 shall be tolled during any period of time a legal proceeding brought by the Company against Executive to enforce this Agreement is pending or during any period of time in which the Executive is in violation of this Agreement.

8.Non-Disclosure of Intellectual Property, Trade Secrets, and Confidential Information.

(a)Executive agrees that, unless otherwise required by law, Executive will forever keep secret all Confidential Information of the Company, and Executive will not use it for Executive’s own private benefit, or directly or indirectly for the benefit of others, and Executive will not disclose Confidential Information to any other person, directly or indirectly.

(b)If Executive is legally compelled (by subpoena, interrogatory, request for documents, investigative demand or similar process) to disclose Confidential Information, Executive shall give Company prompt, prior written notice so Company can seek an appropriate remedy or waive compliance. Executive shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information required on advice of legal counsel, and shall exercise Executive’s best efforts to obtain an order or assurance that any Confidential Information disclosed will be treated by others in a confidential manner.

(c)The foregoing provisions notwithstanding, Company employees, contractors, and consultants may disclose trade secrets in confidence, either directly or indirectly, to a federal, state, or local government official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Additionally, Company employees, contractors, and consultants who file retaliation lawsuits for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose related trade secrets to their attorney and use them in related court proceedings, as long as the individual files documents containing the trade secret under seal and does not otherwise disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order.

9.Non-Disparagement.

(a)Executive agrees that he will not make or cause to be made any oral or written statements that are derogatory, defamatory, or disparaging concerning the Company, its policies or programs, or its past or present officers, directors, employees, agents, or business associates, including but not limited to its past or present suppliers or vendors, or take any actions that are harmful to the business affairs of the Company or its employees. The foregoing shall not prohibit Executive from making any statement in order to pursue legal claims, either directly or indirectly, to a federal, state, or local government official, or make any statement to an attorney or in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding. Executive also agrees that he will not make or cause to be made any oral or written statements regarding the Company’s Confidential Information (as defined in Section 8 above) to any third party, including, but not limited to, the general public (for example, via postings or publications on the internet), the media, financial analysts, auditors, institutional investors, consultants, suppliers, vendors, or business associates, or agents and/or representatives of any of the foregoing, unless the statement is (i) expressly authorized by the Company in writing, or (ii) required by law. This provision is a material and substantial term of this Agreement.

(b)Company agrees that it will not make any official public statement that is derogatory, defamatory, or disparaging concerning Executive, and will instruct the members of the Board and its senior executives to refrain from making any derogatory, defamatory, or disparaging public statements concerning Executive.

10.Severability. If any provision, subsection, or sentence of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision, subsection, or sentence had not been contained herein.

11.Compliance With Confidentiality, Non-Compete, or Non-Disclosure Obligations. Executive represents and warrants that he is in compliance with any confidentiality, non-compete, or non-disclosures obligations or agreements previously entered into with the Company and that any such obligations or agreements shall remain in effect from and after the Effective Date. In the event of any conflict between any such pre-existing confidentiality, non-compete, or non-disclosures obligations or agreements and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

12.Specific Performance. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any Sections 7 or 8 (each a “Covenant” and together the “Covenants”) of the Covenants would be inadequate and the Company would suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, Executive agrees that, in the event of a breach of any of the Covenants, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to cease making any payments or providing any benefit otherwise required by this Agreement and, in the case of either a breach or a threatened breach of any of the Covenants, seek equitable relief before a court of competent jurisdiction, in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy that may then be available.

13.Protected Rights. Executive understands that nothing contained in this Agreement limits Executive’s ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (“Government Agencies”). Executive further understands that this Agreement does not limit Executive’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company.

14.Conflicts of Interest. Executive agrees that for the duration of this Agreement, he will adhere to the obligations set forth in the Company’s Code of Conduct, which may be amended from time to time.

15.Intellectual Property; Assignment of Inventions.

(a)Assignment and License of Rights. Executive assigns to Company all of Executive’s rights in Intellectual Property that Executive makes or conceives during Executive’s employment, whether as a sole or joint inventor, whether made during or outside working hours, and whether made on Company premises or elsewhere. Executive grants to Company an unlimited, unrestricted, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid right to access, use, modify, add to, and distribute any Intellectual Property that Executive developed and reduced to a practical form prior to Executive’s employment with Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries, and that Executive includes in any Intellectual Property assigned to Company. Executive understands and acknowledges that “Intellectual Property” means, for purposes of this Agreement, any information of a technical and/or business nature, such as ideas, discoveries, inventions, trade secrets, know-how, and writings and other works of authorship which relate in any manner to the actual or anticipated business or research and development of Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries.

(b)Assist Documentation. Upon request at any time and at the expense of Company or its nominee and for no additional personal remuneration, Executive agrees to execute and sign any document that Company considers necessary to secure for or maintain for the benefit of Company adequate patent and other property rights in the United States and all foreign countries with respect to any Intellectual Property. Executive also agrees to assist Company as required to obtain and enforce these rights.

(c)Disclosure. Executive agrees to promptly disclose to Company any Intellectual Property when conceived or made by Executive, whether in whole or in part, and to make and maintain adequate and current records of it. If Executive’s employment ends for any reason, Executive agrees to promptly turn over to Company all models, prototypes, drawings, records, documents, and the like in Executive’s possession or under Executive’s control, whether prepared by Executive or others, relating to Intellectual Property, and any other work done for Company. Executive acknowledges that these items are the sole property of Company.

16.Miscellaneous.

As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as defined in this Agreement and any successor to its business (including by way of merger or consolidation) and/or assets. The Company shall require such successor to assume and agree to perform the Company’s obligations under this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise.

(e)GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICTING PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF ARIZONA TO BE APPLIED. IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUPERSEDED BY THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES) WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT. ANY ACTION TO ENFORCE THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE BROUGHT IN, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO JURISDICTION IN MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHTS TO CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF ANY SUCH ACTION.

(f)Compliance with Section 409A. The intent of the Parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A.

(i)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A, and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment that are considered a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, then the Company will defer the commencement of the portion of such payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Executive) to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A until the first business day to occur following the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date otherwise permitted under Section 409A); and (y) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Executive hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, mutually agreed upon between the Executive and the Board, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax.

(ii)In the event that payments under this Agreement are deferred pursuant to this Section 16(f) in order to prevent any accelerated tax or additional tax under Section 409A, then such payments shall be paid at the time specified under this Section 16(f) without any interest thereon.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “resignation,” “termination,” “termination of employment,” or like terms shall mean separation from service.

(iv)Each payment made under this Agreement shall be considered separate payments and not one of a series of payments for purposes of Section 409A.

(v)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except to the extent any expense, reimbursement, or in-kind benefit provided pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, (A) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided to Executive during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided to Executive in any other calendar year; (B) the reimbursements for expenses for which Executive is entitled to be reimbursed shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable expense is incurred; and (C) the right to payment or reimbursement or in-kind benefits hereunder may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit.

(g)Severability of Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(h)Advice of Counsel and Construction. Each Party acknowledges that such Party had the opportunity to be represented by counsel in the negotiation and execution of this Agreement. Accordingly, the rule of construction of contract language against the drafting party is hereby waived by each Party.

(i)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties as of the Effective Date and supersedes all previous agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(j)Withholding Taxes. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any payment due to Executive hereunder any amounts required to be withheld by applicable tax laws or regulations.

(k)Section Headings. The headings of the Sections hereof are provided for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction, and shall not constitute a part, of this Agreement.

(l)Cooperation. During the Term and at any time thereafter, Executive agrees to cooperate in a reasonable manner (i) with the Company in the defense of any legal matter involving any matter that arose during Executive’s employment with the Company; and (ii) with all government authorities on matters pertaining to any investigation, litigation, or administrative proceeding pertaining to the Company. The Company will reimburse Executive for any reasonable travel and out of pocket expenses incurred by Executive in providing such cooperation.

(m)Survival. Sections 6 through 15, inclusive, shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of the Term or of Executive’s employment with the Company.

(n)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

(o)Recoupment/Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, any incentive-based compensation, or any other compensation, paid to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement with the Company or any of its affiliates, which may be subject to recovery under any law, government regulation, company policy or stock exchange listing requirement, will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation, company policy or stock exchange listing requirement solely to the extent required by any such law, government regulation, company policy or stock exchange listing requirement; provided, however, that no company policy will be more restrictive than any law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement to which the Company is subject.

(p)Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Company’s state of incorporation in effect at the time against and in respect of any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including advancement of reasonable attorney’s fees), losses, and damages resulting from Executive’s good faith performance of Executive’s duties and obligations with the Company.  Executive will be entitled to be covered, both during and, while potential liability exists, by any insurance policies the Company may elect to maintain generally for the benefit of officers and directors of the Company against all costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which Executive may be made a party by reason of being an officer or director of the Company, or any subsidiary or affiliate, or a fiduciary of any benefit plan in the same amount and to the same extent as the Company covers its other officers and directors or fiduciaries. These obligations shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.

3.    Age Discrimination in Employment Act; Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990: In addition to the general release in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement, the Employee is waiving and releasing any and all claims against Released Parties under the Age Discrimination and Employment Act (“ADEA”) that arose at any time during the Employee’s employment with the Company, up to and including his last day of employment. This Agreement is subject to the terms of the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990 (“OWBPA”). The OWBPA provides that an individual cannot waive a right or claim under the ADEA unless the waiver is knowing and voluntary. Pursuant to the terms of the OWBPA, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Employee has been provided a copy of this Agreement, has signed this Agreement voluntarily, and with full knowledge of its consequences. In addition, the Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees as follows:

a.    This Agreement has been written in a manner that is calculated to be understood, and is understood, by the Employee;

b.    The release provisions of this Agreement apply to any rights the Employee may have under the ADEA up to the date of this Agreement;

d.    The Employee has been advised that he should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement;

If the Employee signs this Agreement before the expiration of the Review Period, the Employee agrees that he is knowingly and expressly waiving the time-period;

f.    For a period of seven (7) calendar days following his signing of this Agreement, the Employee may revoke this Agreement by providing written notice of any such revocation to [___________________], on or before the seventh day after the Employee signs the Agreement. This Agreement shall become “effective” on the eighth calendar day after the Employee signs it if it has not been revoked during the seven (7) day revocation period (the “Effective Date”);

The Employee understands that he has waived and released any and all claims for money damages and equitable relief that the Employee may recover from Released Parties pursuant to the filing or prosecution of any administrative charge against Released Parties, or any resulting civil proceeding or lawsuit brought on his behalf for the recovery of such relief, and which arises out of the matters that are and may be released or waived by this Agreement. The Employee also understands, however, that this Agreement does not limit his ability to communicate with any government agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any government agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. This Agreement also does not limit the Employee’s right to receive an award for information provided to any government agencies.

In the event any statement in the preceding sentence is incorrect (for example, but not limited to, if the Employee is a Medicare beneficiary, etc.), the following sentences (i.e., the remaining sentences of this paragraph) apply. The Employee affirms, covenants, and warrants he has made no claim for illness or injury against, nor is he aware of any facts supporting any claim against, the Released Parties under which Released Parties could be liable for medical expenses incurred by the Employee before or after the execution of this agreement. Furthermore, the Employee is aware of no medical expenses which Medicare has paid and for which Released Parties are or could be liable now or in the future. The Employee agrees and affirms that, to the best of his knowledge, no liens of any governmental entities, including those for Medicare conditional payments, exist. The Employee will indemnify, defend, and hold Released Parties harmless from Medicare claims, liens, damages, conditional payments, and rights to payment, if any, including attorneys' fees, and the Employee further agrees to waive any and all future private causes of action for damages pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1395y(b)(3)(A) et seq.

9.    Modification of Agreement: This Agreement shall not be modified, amended, or terminated unless such modification, amendment, or termination is executed in writing by the Employee, and an authorized representative of the Company.

10.    The Employee’s Representations: The Employee warrants that the Employee is over the age of eighteen (18) and competent to sign this Agreement; that in signing this Agreement the Employee is not relying on any statement or representation by the Company that is not contained in this Agreement, but is relying upon the Employee’s judgment and/or that of the Employee’s legal counsel and/or tax advisor; that the Agreement was signed knowingly and voluntarily without duress or coercion in any form; and that the Employee fully understands the same is a FULL and FINAL SETTLEMENT of any and all claims against Released Parties which have been or could have been asserted or on account or arising out of the Employee’s employment relationship with the Company or the actions of any of Released Parties. The Employee further represents and certifies that the Employee has been given a fair opportunity to review the terms of this Agreement and has determined that it is in the Employee’s best interest to enter into this Agreement.

11.    Drafting and Construction: This Agreement may not be construed in favor of or against either the Employee or the Company (each, a “Party”) on the grounds that said Party was less or more involved in the drafting process.
