COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS; EXPENSES

Section 3.1. Compensation and Benefits. For all services rendered by the Executive in any capacity during the Term (including, without limitation, serving as an officer, director or member of any committee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other Affiliates), the Executive shall be compensated as follows (subject, in each case, to the provisions of ARTICLE 4 below):

(a) Base Salary. During the Term, the Company shall pay the Executive a base salary (the “Base Salary”) at the initial rate of $365,000 on an annualized basis, which shall be subject to customary withholdings and authorized deductions and be payable in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices in place from time to time. The Executive’s Base salary shall be subject to periodic adjustments as the the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) shall in its discretion deem appropriate. As used in this Agreement, the term “Base Salary” shall refer to Base Salary as may be adjusted from time to time.

(b) Annual Bonus. For each calendar year ending during the Term (beginning with the calendar year ending December 31, 2014), the Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual cash bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) with a target amount equal to 40% of the Base Salary earned by the Executive for the applicable calendar year (the “Target Annual Bonus”). The actual amount of each Annual Bonus will be determined by the Compensation Committee based upon the level of achievement (as reasonably determined by the Compensation Committee) of the Company’s corporate goals and objectives for the calendar year with respect to which the Annual Bonus relates. The Company’s corporate goals and objectives for the calendar year, as well as the applicable formula for determining the actual amount of the Annual Bonus, shall be established by the Compensation Committee in its discretion. Each Annual Bonus for a calendar year, to the extent earned, will be paid in a lump sum in the following calendar year, within the first 75 days of such following year. The Annual Bonus shall not be deemed earned until the date that it is paid. Accordingly, in order for the Executive to receive an Annual Bonus, the Executive must be actively employed by the Company at the time of such payment.

(c) Equity Compensation.

(i) During the Term, subject to the terms and conditions established within the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan or any successor equity compensation plan as may be in place from time to time (the “Plan”) and separate Award Agreements (as defined in the Plan), the Executive also shall be eligible to receive from time to time Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units, Incentive Bonus Awards, Other Cash-Based Awards and/or Other Stock-Based Awards (as such capitalized terms are defined in the Plan), in amounts, if any, to be approved by the Compensation Committee in its discretion.

-3-

(ii) Notwithstanding anything set forth in the Plan or the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”) to the contrary: (A) in the event of (x) a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), or (y) a Change in Control (a “2009 Change in Control”) or Corporate Transaction (as such terms are defined in the 2009 Plan) during the Term, all Stock Options that the Executive may have under the Plan shall vest and become exercisable, to the extent not already vested and exercisable, upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, and all Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options that the Executive may have under (and as defined in) the 2009 Plan shall vest and become exercisable, to the extent not already vested and exercisable, upon the occurrence of the Corporate Transaction or the 2009 Change in Control (all such options held by the Executive under the Plan or the 2009 Plan, the “Options”); and (B) all of the Options that the Executive may have (including those that vest and become exercisable pursuant to clause (A) of this sentence) shall remain exercisable (to the extent not already exercised) for a period of two (2) years, measured from the date of the Change in Control, 2009 Change in Control, and/or Corporate Transaction, as applicable, or, if later, the Termination Date (but, in no event shall any Option remain exercisable beyond the expiration of the term of the Option); provided, however, that in the event stock options under the Plan and/or the 2009 Plan are cancelled or otherwise terminated pursuant to the Plan or the 2009 Plan, as applicable, in connection with such Change in Control or Corporate Transaction, Executive’s Options may be cancelled or otherwise terminated, as applicable, on terms no less favorable than those provided to other similarly situated option holders. This Section 3.1(c)(ii) shall be deemed an amendment to each Award Agreement or Stock Award Agreement (as defined in the 2009 Plan) entered into by the Executive evidencing a grant of Options, whether entered into prior to the Effective Date or during the Term (but, in no event shall this Section 3(c)(ii) be deemed an amendment to any Award Agreement or Stock Award Agreement entered into after expiration of the Term).

(d) Benefit Plans. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans and programs (excluding severance plans, if any) generally made available by the Company to senior executives of the Company, to the extent permissible under the general terms and provisions of such plans or programs and in accordance with the provisions thereof. The Executive understands that the Company does not currently have a group health insurance plan and the Company shall not be obligated to provide or make such benefits available; provided, however, when and if any such plan is established, subject to plan eligibility requirements, enrollment criteria and the other terms and conditions of such plan, the Executive will be entitled to participate in such plan to the same extent as other senior executives of the Company. The Company reserves the right to change or rescind its benefit plans and programs and alter employee contribution levels in its discretion. The Company may amend, modify or rescind any employee benefit plan or program and/or change employee contribution amounts to benefit costs without notice in its discretion.

(e) Paid Vacation. The Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation days in accordance with the Company’s vacation policies in effect from time to time for its executive team.

Section 3.2. Expense Reimbursement. The Company shall reimburse the Executive during the Term, in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies in place from time, for all reasonable out-of-pocket business expenses incurred by the Executive in the performance of her duties hereunder. In order to receive such reimbursement, the Executive shall furnish to the Company documentary evidence of each such expense in the form required to comply with the Company’s policies in place from time to time.

Otherwise, any claim of such circumstances as “Good Reason” shall be deemed irrevocably waived by the Executive.

(c) If the employment relationship hereunder terminates pursuant to Section 4.3(a), the Executive shall, in full discharge of all of the Company’s obligations to the Executive, be entitled to receive, and the Company’s sole obligation to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise shall be to pay or provide to the Executive, the following:

Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 4.3(c)(iii), if and to the extent that the Company may not provide such COBRA Assistance without incurring tax penalties or violating any requirement of the law, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to provide substantially similar assistance in an alternative manner provided that the cost of doing so does not exceed the cost that the Company would have incurred had the COBRA Assistance been provided in the manner described above or cause a violation of Section 409A; and

This Section 4.3(c)(iv) shall be deemed an amendment to each Award Agreement or Stock Award Agreement entered into by the Executive evidencing a grant of Options, whether prior to the Effective Date or during the Term (but, in no event shall this Section 4.3(c)(iv) be deemed an amendment to any Award Agreement or Stock Award Agreement entered into after expiration of the Term).

Section 4.4. Release Agreement. The Company’s obligation to make any of the payments or provide any of the benefits (other than the Accrued Obligations) set forth in Section 4.3 shall be contingent upon the Executive executing the Release (as defined below), which Release must be executed by the Executive and become effective (and non-revocable) within sixty (60) days after the Termination Date.

Section 4.5. Post-Termination Breach. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company’s obligations to provide the Severance Payment and the COBRA Assistance (in each case, to the extent not previously provided) will immediately cease if the Executive breaches any of the provisions of the Covenants Agreement, the Release or any other agreement the Executive has with the Company, or if any provision of those agreements is determined to be unenforceable, to any extent, by a court or arbitration panel, whether by preliminary or final adjudication.

Section 4.6. Removal from any Boards and Position. If the Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason under this Agreement, she shall be deemed (without further action, deed or notice) to resign (a) if a member, from the Board or board of directors (or similar governing body) of any Affiliate of the Company or any other board to which she has been appointed or nominated by or on behalf of the Company and (b) from all other positions with the Company or any subsidiary or other Affiliate of the Company, including, but not limited to, as an officer of the Company and any of its subsidiaries or other Affiliates.

-11-

process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void and of no effect; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.13 shall preclude the assumption of such rights by executors, administrators or other legal representatives of the Executive or the Executive’s estate and their assigning any rights hereunder to the person or persons entitled thereto.

Section 5.14. Source of Payment. Except as otherwise provided under the terms of any applicable employee benefit plan, all payments provided for under this Agreement shall be paid in cash from the general funds of the Company. The Company shall not be required to establish a special or separate fund or other segregation of assets to assure such payments, and, if the Company shall make any investments to aid it in meeting its obligations hereunder, the Executive shall have no right, title or interest whatever in or to any such investments except as may otherwise be expressly provided in a separate written instrument relating to such investments. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between the Company and the Executive or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company hereunder, such right, without prejudice to rights which employees may have, shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured creditor of the Company. The Executive shall not look to the owners of the Company for the satisfaction of any obligations of the Company under this Agreement.

Section 5.15. Tax Withholding. The Company or other payor is authorized to withhold from any benefit provided or payment due hereunder, the amount of withholding taxes due any federal, state or local authority in respect of such benefit or payment and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Board to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes. The Executive will be solely responsible for all taxes assessed against her with respect to the compensation and benefits described in this Agreement, other than typical employer-paid taxes such as FICA, and the Company makes no representations as to the tax treatment of such compensation and benefits.

Section 5.16. 409A Compliance. All payments under this Agreement are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”). As used in this Agreement, the “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To the extent permitted under applicable regulations and/or other guidance of general applicability issued pursuant to Section 409A, the Company reserves the right to modify this Agreement to conform with any or all relevant provisions regarding compensation and/or benefits so that such compensation and benefits are exempt from the provisions of 409A and/or otherwise comply with such provisions so as to avoid the tax consequences set forth in Section 409A and to assure that no payment or benefit shall be subject to an “additional tax” under Section 409A. To the extent that any provision in this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, or to the extent any provision in this Agreement must be modified to comply with Section 409A, such provision shall be read in such a manner so that no payment due to the Executive shall be subject to an “additional tax” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. If necessary to comply with the restriction in Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code concerning payments to “specified employees,” any payment on account of the Executive’s separation from service that would otherwise be due hereunder within six (6) months after such separation shall be delayed

-12-

until the first business day of the seventh month following the Termination Date and the first such payment shall include the cumulative amount of any payments (without interest) that would have been paid prior to such date if not for such restriction. Each payment in a series of payments hereunder shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. In no event may the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Executive shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of Section 4.3 unless the Executive would be considered to have incurred a “termination of employment” from the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii). In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Executive by Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Section 409A.

Section 5.17. Section 280G Limitation. If any payment(s) or benefit(s) the Executive would receive pursuant to this Agreement and/or pursuant to any other agreement or arrangement would (a) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (b) but for this Section 5.17, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such payment(s) or benefit(s) (collectively, “Payments”) shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be the largest portion of the Payments that can be paid or provided without causing any portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payments equal the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order: (i) first, the Severance Payment under this Agreement, (ii) second, any other cash payments due under any other agreement between the Company and the Executive; (iii) third, cancellation of the acceleration of vesting of any stock options, (iv) fourth, cancellation of the acceleration of vesting of any restricted stock and restricted stock units; and (v) lastly, other non-cash forms of benefits. Calculations of the foregoing will be performed at the expense of the Company by an accounting firm selected by the Company. The determinations of such accounting firm shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and the Executive.
