Separation of Employment.  As of May 12, 2023, you will no longer serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.  Beginning May 12, 2023, you will serve as a senior advisor to the Company and your employment with the Company will terminate effective as of June 30, 2023 (the “Separation Date).  The period from the date of this Agreement through the Separation Date is referred to as the “Transition Period,” during which you will continue to be employed by the Company “at will.”  During the Transition Period, you will perform such transition duties as may be reasonably requested by the Company.  You will also continue to receive your base salary in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, less all relevant taxes and other withholdings, continue to vest in any equity awards under the terms of the Company’s applicable Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan[s]”) and any award agreements, and continue to participate in all employee benefit plans of the Company in which you are currently participating (subject to the terms and conditions of such plans, which may be modified, amended or terminated in the Company’s sole discretion).  You further acknowledge and agree that from and after the Separation Date, you shall not represent yourself as an employee or agent of Company.  As of the Separation Date, you also resign from each and every office, position or responsibility in which you then serve for Company and each of its affiliates, subsidiaries or divisions.  You acknowledge and agree that should you engage in conduct constituting Cause (as defined below) during the Transition Period, the Company may accelerate the Separation Date to a date the Company selects in its sole discretion.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means your failure to comply with any term of this Agreement, or your breach or other failure to comply with any Company policy, rule, or directive, in the Company’s sole discretion.

Equity.  You were granted options (the “Options”) to purchase an aggregate of 841,399 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock pursuant to the terms of your Option Agreements (the “Option Agreements”) and 95,700 restricted share units pursuant to the terms of your Restricted Stock Unit Agreements (the “Restricted Stock Unit Agreements”), all pursuant to the terms of the Plan[s].  Subject to Section 3, as of the Separation Date you acknowledge and agree that 229,037 of the Options shall be vested and unexercised (the “Vested Options”) and 47,852 restricted share units vested and the underlying shares were distributed.  Zero Options had previously been exercised and the remaining 612,362 Options and 47,848 restricted share units remain unvested and are forfeited as of the Separation Date.  You acknowledge that you have no right to acquire any further stock options, restricted stock units, common stock, equity or other interest in Company under the Option Agreements, the Restricted Stock Unit Agreements and/or the Plan[s] and you shall not in the future have any right to acquire any equity or other interest in Company.

Separation Benefits.  In exchange for the promises and release of claims contained herein, and provided that: (i) you execute and do not rescind your assent to this Agreement (as described in Section 8 and 9 below)); (ii) you have not been terminated for Cause before the Separation Date; and (iii) no sooner than the Separation Date but not later than seven (7) days after the Separation Date, you execute and do not revoke the Supplemental Release attached as Exhibit A (which Supplemental Release must be signed within twenty one days following the Separation Date, the Company shall provide you with the following (the “Separation Benefits”):

A lump-sum payment in the amount of $300,000 such amount representing nine (9) months of severance, less all applicable federal, state, local and other legally required or authorized deductions, payable on the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll date following the Supplemental Release Effective Date and

The COBRA Benefit (as defined below).

COBRA Benefits: Regardless of whether you sign the Agreement, you shall have the right to elect to continue your medical and dental benefits pursuant to the terms and conditions of COBRA.  Your eligibility for benefits under COBRA, the amount of such benefits, and the terms and conditions of such benefits, shall be determined by COBRA statutory and regulatory guidelines.  Subject to your timely election of continuation coverage under COBRA and your signing this Agreement, and provided that you execute and do not revoke the Supplemental Release attached as Exhibit A (which Supplemental Release must be signed within twenty one days following the Separation Date), the Company pay on your behalf the monthly premium payable to continue you and your eligible dependents’ participation in Company’s group health plan for the lesser of the period ending March 31, 2024 and the month in which you become eligible to participate in a subsequent employer’s group health benefits (the “COBRA Benefit”).  You will notify Company’s Human Resources Department in writing promptly following the date you accept employment with a subsequent employer.  If the reimbursement of any COBRA premiums would violate the nondiscrimination rules or cause the reimbursement of claims to be taxable under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, together with the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the “Act”) or Section 105(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended) (the “Code”), Company paid premiums will be treated as taxable payments and be subject to imputed income tax treatment to the extent necessary to eliminate any discriminatory treatment or taxation under the Act or Sect on 105(h) of the Code

Unemployment Benefits.  By virtue of your separation of employment, you shall be entitled to apply for unemployment benefits.  The determination of your eligibility for such benefits (and the amount of benefits to which you may be entitled) shall be made by the appropriate state agency pursuant to applicable state law.  Company agrees that it shall not contest any claim for unemployment benefits by you.  Company, of course, shall not be required to falsify any information.

Return of Property, Confidentiality, Non-Disparagement, and Related Matters.  You expressly acknowledge and agree to the following:

You have returned to Company all Company documents (and any copies, duplicates, or replicas thereof), and property, including, without limitation, the laptop computer that was provided to you by Company any of its subsidiaries, and their respective divisions, affiliates, parents, subsidiaries and related entities (collectively, the “Company Affiliates”) during your employment, and that you will abide by any and all common law and/or statutory obligations relating to protection and non-disclosure of the Company s and Company’s Affiliates’ trade secrets and/or confidential and proprietary documents and information.

In the event that you receive an order, subpoena, request, or demand for disclosure of Company’s trade secrets and/or confidential and proprietary documents and information from any court or governmental agency, or from a party to any litigation or administrative proceeding, you shall as soon as reasonably possible and prior to disclosure notify the Company of same, in order to provide Company with the opportunity to assert its respective interests in addressing or opposing such order, subpoena, request, or demand.

Your breach of any of the foregoing covenants by you shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall relieve Company of any further obligations hereunder and, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy available to Company, shall entitle Company to recover any Separation Benefits already paid to you pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement.
