The provisions of this Agreement do not prohibit or prevent Employee from filing suit to challenge the Company’s compliance with the waiver requirements of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act.

Opportunity Commission, California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, 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 (each a “Government Agency"), or participating, testifying or assisting in any investigation, hearing or other proceeding before any Government Agency. However, Employee acknowledges that to the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee is not entitled to any monetary damages or other individual relief resulting from any charge, claim or complaint pertaining or otherwise relating to any or all of the claims that are waived or released under this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 5 or Section 6 below, that is filed with any Government Agency, except nothing in this Agreement prohibits or prevents Employee from receiving individual monetary awards or other individual relief by virtue of providing information to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or filing a charge, claim or complaint protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulations or participating in a federal whistleblower programs including but not limited to any such programs managed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and/or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

15.    To the maximum extent permissible by applicable law, the payments and benefits payable under this Agreement shall be interpreted to be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), including, without limitation, the exemptions pursuant to Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4) and 1.409A-1(b)(9). To the extent the payments and benefits under this Agreement are subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and administered in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. If the Company and Employee determine that any compensation, benefits or other payments that are payable under this Agreement and intended to comply with Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code do not comply with Section 409A of the Code, the Company and Employee agree to amend this Agreement, or take such other actions as the Company and Employee deem reasonably necessary or appropriate, to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, while preserving the economic agreement of the parties. In the case of any compensation, benefits or other payments that are payable under this Agreement and intended to comply with Sections 409A(a)(2), (3) and (4) of the Code, if any provision of the Agreement would cause such compensation, benefits or other payments to fail to so comply, such provision shall not be effective and shall be null and void with respect to such compensation, benefits or other payments, and such provision shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. The Employee’s right to receive installment payments of any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments, and accordingly, each installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. To the extent any reimbursement of expenses under this Agreement is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the reimbursements shall be paid in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) and be paid on or before the last day of Employee’s taxable year following the taxable year in which Employee incurred the expenses. If Employee is a specified employee on the Separation

Date, any payments or benefits (or portion thereof) under this Agreement that are subject to Section 409A of the Code and payable upon Employee’s separation from service shall be delayed in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, and such payments or benefits shall be paid or distributed to Employee during the thirty (30) day period commencing on the earlier of (a) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Employee’s separation from service or (b) the date of Employee’s death. Upon the expiration of the applicable six-month period under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, all payments deferred pursuant hereto shall be paid in a lump sum payment to Employee (or Employee’s estate, in the event of Employee’s death). Any remaining payments due under the Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.

16.    Employee understands that he has twenty-one (21) days to review and fully consider this Agreement before signing it, and that he may take as much of that period as he wishes prior to signing it. Employee also understands that within seven (7) days of the date of signing this Agreement, he has the right to revoke this Agreement. Any such revocation must be made in a signed writing delivered to Company, c/o Jeremy Hayden, General Counsel, within the seven (7) day revocation period. If Employee timely revokes this Agreement, it shall not be effective or enforceable, Employee must immediately return any compensation and benefits provided by this Agreement and not otherwise required by law received by Employee prior to the expiration of such revocation period and Employee will not thereafter receive any other compensation and benefits provided by this Agreement and not otherwise required by law.

5.Performance of Services. The Company and Independent Contractor shall mutually agree upon the time, place, methods, manner and means of performing the Services. In performing the Services, the amount of time devoted by Independent Contractor on any given day will be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Independent Contractor.

6.Final Results. In the performance of the Services, Independent Contractor has the authority to control and direct the performance of the details of the Services, the Company being interested only in the results obtained. However, the Services contemplated herein must meet the Company’s standards and approval.

(a)    Non-Solicitation. Independent Contractor acknowledges that in the course of Independent Contractor’s employment with the Company and during the Term of this Agreement Independent Contractor gained and will gain knowledge of certain proprietary and confidential trade secret information of the Company, including but not limited to the Company’s product pipeline and related research and development strategy, regulatory approvals and related information and strategy, the business strategy of the Company and the business and clinical needs and activity of any and all customers of the Company (“Confidential Information”). Independent Contractor further acknowledges that Confidential Information is material and important and gravely affects the successful conduct of the Company’s business. Accordingly, as an additional inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement Independent Contractor agrees that during the Term and for a period of one year following the third anniversary of the Separation Date, Independent Contractor shall not directly or indirectly (a) solicit or attempt to solicit any employee of the Company as of the date of this Agreement who is then still employed

by the Company (each, a “Covered Employee”) to leave his or her employment with the Company, or induce or attempt to induce any such Covered Employee to terminate or breach his or her employment or similar agreement with the Company, or (b) use any Confidential Information to solicit, contact, or attempt to solicit or contact, or meet with the Company’s current customers for purposes of offering or accepting goods or services similar to or competitive with those offered by the Company.

(b)    Non-Competition. As an additional inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement, Independent Contractor agrees that during the Term, Independent Contractor shall not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, engage in, operate, control, work for, consult with, render services for, do business with, maintain any material interest in (proprietary, financial or otherwise) or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, any business activity anywhere in the world that engages in the research, development, manufacturing, marketing, distribution, commercialization, sale, import or export of any products for the endovascular treatment of aortic aneurysms, dissections or occlusions (such business, a “Competing Business”). Nothing herein shall prohibit Independent Contractor from purchasing or owning less than five percent (5%) of the publicly traded securities of any corporation engaged in a Competing Business, provided that such ownership represents a passive investment and that Employee is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such corporation.

(c)    Non-Disparagement. As an additional inducement for the parties to enter into this Agreement, each party agrees to act in good faith so as not to harm the business reputation of the other party in any way and agrees that he/it will not at any time make, publish, or communicate to any person or entity or in any public forum any false, negative, critical, defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments, or statements concerning the other party or, in case of the Company, its business, prospects or products, or any of its directors, officers or employees. The Company shall make reasonable efforts to cause its current senior executive officers or any current member of the Board of Directors to comply with this requirement.

(d)    Scope. It is the desire and intent of the Company and Independent Contractor that the provisions of this Section 7 and the PIIA shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under applicable laws and regulations applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any of the covenants set forth herein are held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, such covenants will be considered divisible with respect to scope, time, and geographic area, and in such lesser scope, time and geographic area, will be effective, binding and enforceable against Independent Contractor.

(e)    Breach. In the event of a breach by Independent Contractor of any of the covenants set forth in this Section 7 and the PIIA after the expiration of the Term, any and all of Independent Contractor’s rights to additional vesting, exercisability or other remuneration or compensation under Section 3 hereof or the Severance Agreement and General Release signed by the parties (if any) shall, effective as of the date of such breach, cease, terminate and be of no further force and effect. In addition, Independent Contractor hereby consents and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to, in addition to other available remedies, a temporary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction against or in respect of any breach at any time by Independent Contractor of any of the covenants set forth in this Section 7 and the PIIA.

(f)    No Liability. Independent Contractor acknowledges that Independent Contractor was informed that Independent Contractor has right under 18 U.S.C. Section 1833(b) which states in part: “An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that - (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government

official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.” Nothing in this Agreement creates liability for actions taken by Independent Contractor permitted under 18 U.S.C. Section 1833(b).

8.No Employment Benefits. Independent Contractor shall not be entitled to any employment benefits made available to employees from time to time, other than those to which he may be entitled under the Severance Agreement and General Release signed by the parties.

During the Term of this Agreement (and subject to Section 3 above), the Company shall pay Independent Contractor a monthly consulting fee, in arrears, for each completed month of service in the amount of $2,000 as consideration for Independent Contractor’s consulting services, to be directed by the Chairman, CEO or their respective designees.

10.Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Independent Contractor for all pre-approved out-of-pocket travel and related expenses incurred by Independent Contractor in connection with the performance of services under this Agreement, provided that Independent Contractor provides accounts or invoices therefor evidencing such expenses. Except as otherwise set forth herein, Independent Contractor shall be responsible for all business expenses incurred by Independent Contractor in connection with, or related to, the performance of services under this Agreement..

11.No Authority to Bind. Independent Contractor shall have no power to obligate, commit or legally bind the Company in any manner whatsoever, and the Company shall have no liability to Independent Contractor or to others for any acts or omissions of Independent Contractor.

12.Warranties.

13.Non-Assignability of Contract. This Agreement is personal to Independent Contractor and he shall not have the right to assign any of his rights or delegate any of his duties without the express written consent of the Company.

14.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of California. In the event of any controversy, claim or dispute between the parties hereto arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the matter shall be determined by arbitration, which shall take place in Orange County, California, under the Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association as then in effect. A copy of those Arbitration Rules and Mediations Procedures can be found at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/employment_arbitration_rules_and_mediation_procedures_0.pdf.

in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator shall be bound by applicable legal precedent in reaching his or her decision. Any judgment upon such award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any decision or award of such arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall not be appealable. The parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of such arbitrator and of any court having jurisdiction to enter judgment upon and enforce any action taken by such arbitrator. The fees payable to the American Arbitration Association and the arbitrator shall be paid by the Company. All proceedings under this Section 14, and all evidence given or discovered pursuant hereto, shall be maintained in confidence by the parties and by the arbitrator.

15.Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable laws and regulations, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or regulation in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision, but this Agreement shall, subject to Section 7(d) hereof, be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had been replaced by a valid, legal and enforceable provision that comes closest to expressing the intention of the parties hereto..

16.Amendment. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by both the Company and Independent Contractor.

1.    In exchange for the consideration referred to in paragraph 1 above, Employee waives and releases all claims, known and unknown, which he might otherwise have had, as of the date of execution of this General Release, against Company or any of its parent or affiliated companies, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, stockholders, employees, attorneys, insurers, agents, successors or assigns (collectively, the “Released Parties”), including but not limited to claims regarding any aspect of Employee’s employment or compensation, the cessation of Employee’s employment, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. section 1981, the Fair Labor Standards Acts, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California Government Code section 12900, et seq., the Unruh Civil Rights Act, California Civil Code section 51, all provisions of the California Labor Code and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, 29 U.S.C. section 1001, et seq., all as amended, any other federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance or public policy, contract, tort or property law theory, or any other cause of action whatsoever that arose on or before the date Employee executes this Agreement.

2.    It is further understood and agreed that as a condition of this General Release, all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California are expressly waived by Employee. Such Section reads as follows:

Notwithstanding Section 1542, and for the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the Released Parties, Employee expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include and does include in its effect, without limitation, all claims which Employee does not know or suspect to exist in Employee’s favor against the Released Parties at the time of execution hereof, and that this Agreement expressly contemplates the extinguishment of all such claims.

3.    This General Release does not limit Employee’s right to file a charge or complaint with any state or federal agency, or to cooperate in such a matter, although Employee expressly waives and relinquishes all right to any relief that any governmental agency may obtain on his behalf. This General further does not preclude Employee from filing suit to challenge the Foundation’s compliance with the waiver requirements of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act.

4.    Employee represents and acknowledges that Employee has returned to the Company all Company property in Employee’s possession, whether in tangible or electronic form, including, without limitation, computers, phones, printers, furniture and all data, analysis and reports regarding Company and its business, operations, intellectual property, other assets and products or potential products. Employee further represents and warrants that Employee has no other Company property in Employee’s possession or under Employee’s control, including hard copy or electronically stored documents, computer disks, written policies or procedures or other documents pertaining to any past, present or known

prospective clients of the Company, and that Employee has not given these or similar items to any third party, except in the course and scope of Employee’ employment with the Company.

5.    Employee understands that he had twenty-one (21) days to review and fully consider this General Release before signing it. Employee also understands that within seven (7) days of the date of signing this General Release, he has the right to revoke this General Release. Any such revocation must be made in a signed writing delivered to Company, c/o Jeremy Hayden, General Counsel, within the seven (7) day revocation period. If Employee timely revokes this General Release, it shall not be effective or enforceable, Employee must immediately return any compensation and benefits provided by the Agreement and not otherwise required by law received by Employee prior to the expiration of such revocation period and Employee will not thereafter receive any other compensation and benefits provided by the Agreement and not otherwise required by law.    

6.    Employee acknowledges and agrees that upon being paid the final payment of his salary and accrued vacation on the Separation Date and any bonus payment payable on or before the Separation Date, Employee has been paid all compensation to which he is entitled in connection with his employment with the Company, including wages, bonuses and accrued vacation up to and including the Separation Date. All such payments will be less appropriate withholdings.
