3. Termination of Employment.

(c) Termination By Employee For Good Reason. During the term of this Agreement, Employee may terminate his or her employment for Good Reason by written notice to the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary given within sixty (60) days after the date of the first occurrence of any event that Employee knows or should reasonably have known constitutes Good Reason for termination. Such notice must identify Employee and set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed by Employee to constitute Good Reason and identify Employee’s planned termination date (which must be at least thirty (30) days from the date that the written notice is provided to the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary). Employee may terminate his or her employment for Good Reason thereafter only if the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary fails to cure the circumstances identified in Employee’s notice as giving rise to Good Reason within thirty (30) days after its receipt of Employee’s notice, and Employee’s termination must become effective no later than sixty (60) days after the date that the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary received Employee’s notice provided hereunder.

4. Severance Benefits.

(a) Severance Benefits For Qualifying Terminations. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including but not limited to the execution and return of an effective release agreement as described in Section 6 below), if Employee suffers a Qualifying Termination, the Company or an Employing Subsidiary will provide the following as Employee’s sole severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”):

(i) Cash Severance Benefit. The Company or an Employing Subsidiary shall pay in a lump sum an amount equal to eighteen (18) months of Employee’s Base Salary, to be paid on the first regularly scheduled payroll date to occur within ten (10) business days following the Release Effective Date (as defined in Section 6); provided, however, that to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code, if the Release Period (as defined below) spans two calendar years, such payment shall be made in the second calendar year.

(ii) COBRA Premium Benefit. If Employee was enrolled in a group health plan (i.e., medical, dental, or vision plan) sponsored by the Company or any Subsidiary immediately prior to termination, Employee may be eligible to continue coverage under such group health plan (or to convert to an individual policy) following his or her last day of employment under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (together with any state law of similar effect, “COBRA”). If Employee is eligible for continued coverage under COBRA and timely elects such continued coverage, the Company or an Employing Subsidiary shall pay the full amount of the COBRA premiums for Employee and his or her eligible dependents for the first eighteen (18) months of such coverage or until such earlier date as either (A) Employee and/or his or her eligible dependents cease to be eligible for COBRA coverage or (B) Employee becomes eligible for the group health plan coverage of a subsequent employer. Following such period of paid COBRA coverage, Employee will be responsible for the timely payment of the full amount of premiums required under COBRA for the duration of the COBRA period (if any). Employee must notify the Company and, if applicable, the Employing Subsidiary immediately if he or she becomes eligible for coverage by a group health plan of a subsequent employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary, as applicable, determines, in its or their sole discretion, that such payment of the COBRA premiums would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of Section 105(h)(2) of the Code or any statute or regulation of similar effect (including, without limitation, the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act and any other subsequent amendments), then in lieu of such payments by the Company or an Employing Subsidiary to the COBRA carrier on behalf of Employee, the Company or an Employing Subsidiary shall instead pay Employee, within ten (10) business days following the date such determination is made, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premiums for up to eighteen (18) months following termination (or any lesser period, if such determination is made after any benefits are provided pursuant to the preceding sentences), subject to applicable tax withholdings and deductions; provided, that such payment shall not be made prior to the Release Effective Date; and provided, further that, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code, if the Release Period spans two calendar years, such payment shall not be made until the second calendar year.

(b) Other Terminations. In the event Employee’s employment terminates other than due to a Qualifying Termination, Employee’s rights upon termination shall be governed by applicable law and by the standard employment termination policy of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries applicable to Employee in effect at the time of termination or, if applicable, any written employment agreement between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and Employee other than this Agreement, in effect at the time of termination.

(c) Certain Reductions. The Company or the Employing Subsidiary, if applicable, shall reduce the Severance Benefits by any other severance benefits, pay in lieu of notice, or other similar benefits payable to Employee by the Company or any Subsidiary that become payable in connection with the Qualifying Termination or termination of employment pursuant to (i) any applicable legal requirement, including, without limitation, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the California Plant Closing Act, or any other similar state law (collectively, “WARN”), (ii) a written employment or severance agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary, or (iii) any policy or practice of the Company or any Subsidiary providing for severance, termination pay, or otherwise allowing Employee to remain on the payroll for a limited period of time after being given notice of the termination of employment. In the Company’s and/or, if applicable, the Employing Subsidiary’s sole discretion, such reductions may be applied on a retroactive basis, with severance benefits previously paid being re-characterized as payments pursuant to the Company’s or any of its Subsidiary’s statutory or contractual obligations.

5. Deductions and Withholdings. All payments under this Agreement will be subject to applicable withholding for federal, state and local taxes. If Employee is indebted to the Company or any Subsidiary as of his or her last day of employment, the Company or any Subsidiary reserves the right to offset the Severance Benefits by the amount of such indebtedness. Additionally, if Employee is subject to withholding for taxes related to any payments or benefits, including but not limited to any imputed income related to perquisites or withholding taxes due in connection with the vesting or exercise of equity awards, the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary may offset against the Severance Benefits the amount of such

withholding taxes. However, Severance Benefits payments will not be subject to any deductions for other benefit plan purposes such as 401(k) plan contributions and/or 401(k) loan repayments or other employee benefit plan contributions.

6. Release of Claims. In order to be eligible to receive the Severance Benefits, Employee must execute, return, and allow to become effective a general waiver and release in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibits A, B or C (as applicable) within the time frame set forth therein, but in no event may such release be effective later than sixty (60) days following the date of Employee’s Qualifying Termination (such sixty-day period, the “Release Period”). The date Employee’s release agreement becomes effective, as further described in the applicable release form, is referred to herein as the “Release Effective Date”. The Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary, in their sole discretion, may modify the form of the required release including to comply with applicable law and shall determine the form of the required release, which may be incorporated into a termination agreement or other agreement with Employee.

7. Additional Eligibility and Transition Matters.

(a) Return of Company Property. Employee will not be entitled to the Severance Benefits unless and until Employee returns all Company Property upon or promptly following his or her termination (or earlier if so requested by the Company and/or the Employing Subsidiary). For this purpose, “Company Property” means all paper and electronic documents (and all copies thereof) of the Company or any Subsidiary created and/or received by Employee during his or her period of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries and other Company information, materials and property which Employee had in his or her possession or control including, but not limited to, files, notes, lab notebooks, drawings, records, plans, forecasts, reports, studies, analyses, proposals, agreements, financial information, research and development information, sales and marketing information, operational and personnel information, specifications, code, software, databases, computer-recorded information, tangible property and equipment (including, but not limited to, leased vehicles, computers, computer equipment, software programs, facsimile machines, mobile telephones, servers), credit and calling cards, entry cards, identification badges and keys; and any materials of any kind which contain or embody any proprietary or confidential information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (and all reproductions thereof in whole or in part). As a condition to receiving the Severance Benefits, Employee must undertake a diligent search to locate any such Company Property, and Employee must not make or retain copies, reproductions or summaries of any such Company Property. Employee’s diligent search to locate and return any Company Property includes, but is not limited to, any Company Property that was received, stored, prepared or transmitted by Employee on any personally owned computer, server, e-mail system, mobile phone, or portable electronic device (collectively, “Personal Systems”), and Employee must provide the Company (and/or the Employing Subsidiary) with a computer-useable copy of all Company Property from such Personal Systems and then permanently delete and expunge all such information from the Personal Systems without retaining any copy or reproduction in any form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee is not required to return his or her personal copies of documents evidencing Employee’s hire, termination, compensation, benefits and stock options and any other documentation received as a shareholder of the Company or any Subsidiary.

(b) Prepayment of Advanced Amounts. Employee will not be entitled to the Severance Benefits if he or she previously received an advance(s) for business travel and entertainment expenses unless and until Employee (i) properly completes and submits an expense reimbursement form(s) and supporting receipts to his or her manager no later than the effective date of the Qualifying Termination and (ii) repays any amounts advanced but not used and approved for reimbursement.

(c) Transition of Work. Employee will not be entitled to any Severance Benefits unless and until he or she (i) has satisfactorily transitioned his or her work and information concerning his or her work to the Company and its Subsidiaries to the extent requested by the Company and/or any Subsidiary (including but not limited to completion of exit checklists and properly signed and witnessed lab notebooks), and (ii) has provided the Company and any Subsidiary with all logins, passwords, passcodes and similar information created by Employee for documents, email and electronic files that Employee created or used on systems of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(d) Proprietary Information Obligations. Employee is not eligible for the Severance Benefits if he or she has not signed the standard form of confidential information and inventions assignment agreement (“Proprietary Agreement”) covering Employee’s entire period of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (and with any predecessor) and/or if Employee does not confirm in writing that he or she is and shall remain subject to the terms of the Proprietary Agreement.

(e) Resignation From Board. If Employee is a member of the Board (and/or any Board of Directors of a Subsidiary) as of the Qualifying Termination, Employee will not be eligible for the Severance Benefits unless he or she promptly resigns from the Board (and/or from the Board of Directors of any Subsidiary, if applicable) if requested to do so by a majority of the Board.

8. Death of Employee. Any amounts due Employee under this Agreement (not including any Base Salary not yet earned by Employee) unpaid as of the date of Employee’s death shall be paid in a single sum as soon as practicable after Employee’s death to Employee’s surviving spouse, or if none, to the duly appointed personal representative of Employee’s estate, provided that all conditions for receipt of such amounts have been satisfied.

9. Treatment of Parachute Payments.

(a) In the event that it shall be determined (as hereafter provided) that any payment by the Company to or for the benefit of Employee, whether paid or payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise pursuant to or by reason of any other agreement, policy, plan, program or arrangement, including without limitation any stock option, or the lapse or termination of any restriction on or the vesting or exercisability of any of the foregoing (collectively, a “Payment”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) by reason of being considered “contingent on a change in ownership or control” of the Company, within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or to any similar tax imposed by state or local law, or any interest or penalties with respect to such tax (such tax or taxes, together with any such interest and penalties, being hereafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in the Employee’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the manner that results in the greatest economic benefit for the Employee. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata.

(b) All determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether an Excise Tax is payable by Employee and the amount of such Excise Tax, shall be made in good faith by a nationally recognized accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) selected by the Company. For purposes of the computations required by this Section 9 to the extent not otherwise specified here, reasonable assumptions and approximations may be made with respect to applicable taxes and reasonable, good faith interpretations of the Code may be relied upon and Employee shall be deemed to pay federal, state and local income and payroll taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation. The Company and Employee shall each provide the Accounting Firm access to and copies of any books, records and documents in the possession of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or Employee, as the case may be, reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm, and otherwise cooperate with the Accounting Firm in connection with the preparation and issuance of the determination and calculations contemplated by this Section. Any final determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and its Subsidiaries and Employee. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm.

10. Code Section 409A. It is intended that all Severance Benefits satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), and the Severance Benefits consisting of premiums paid under COBRA also satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company (or, if applicable, the successor entity thereto) or the Employing Subsidiary (if applicable) determines that the Severance Benefits constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code (Section 409A, together, with any state law of similar effect, “Section 409A”) and Employee is deemed by the Company or the Employing Subsidiary, at the time of the separation from service, to be a “specified employee” as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (a “Specified Employee”), then, solely to the extent necessary to avoid the incurrence of the adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, the timing of the Severance Benefits shall be delayed as follows: on the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is six months and one day after Employee’s separation from service and (ii) the date of Employee’s death (such earlier date, the “Delayed Initial Payment Date”), the Company (or the successor entity thereto, as applicable) or the Employing Subsidiary shall (A) pay to Employee a lump sum amount equal to the sum of the Severance Benefits that Employee would otherwise have received through the Delayed Initial Payment Date if the commencement of the payment of the Severance Benefits had not been delayed pursuant to this Section 10 and (B) commence paying the balance of the Severance Benefits in accordance with the original payment schedules set forth above. To the extent required to comply with Section 409A, it is intended that: (1) the right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement will be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments; (2) (a) any expenses or other reimbursements as provided herein will be payable in accordance with the policies in effect from time to time, but in any event will be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Employee; (b) no such reimbursement or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year will in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year; and (c) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchanged for another benefit; and (3) (a) a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits that are considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment, unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and the payment thereof prior to a “separation from service” would violate Section 409A; and (b) for purposes of any provision of this Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendment. No provision of this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is signed by Employee and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board to sign on the Company’s behalf, and, to the extent that an Employing Subsidiary is a party to this Agreement, such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board of Directors of such Employing Subsidiary to sign on the Employing Subsidiary’s behalf.

(b) Transfer and Assignment. The rights and obligations of Employee under this Agreement may not be transferred or assigned without the prior written consent of the Company and, to the extent applicable, the Employing Subsidiary. This Agreement shall be binding upon any person who is a successor by merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise to the business formerly carried on by the Company and its Subsidiaries without regard to whether or not such person or entity actively assumes the obligations hereunder.

(c) Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment or supplement to this Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will constitute an original but all of which will together constitute a single instrument. Transmission by facsimile or PDF of an executed counterpart signature page hereof by a party hereto shall constitute due execution and delivery of this Agreement by such party.

(d) Nature of Obligations. Nothing contained herein shall create or require the Company or any Subsidiary to create a trust of any kind to fund any benefits which may be payable hereunder, and to the extent that Employee acquires a right to receive benefits from the Company or any Subsidiary hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(e) ERISA. For purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, this Agreement is intended to be a severance pay employee welfare benefit plan, and not an employee pension plan, and shall be construed and administered with that intention.

(f) Prior Employment. Employee represents and warrants that acceptance of employment with the Company and any of its Subsidiaries has not breached, and the performance of his or her employment duties to the Company and any of its Subsidiaries will not breach, any duty owed by Employee to any prior employer or other person.

(g) Headings. The Section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between a heading and the content of a Section, the content of the Section shall control.

(h) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law, such event shall not affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement and shall not affect the application of any provision to other persons or circumstances, and, if possible, the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to become valid and enforceable to the greatest extent consistent with the general intent of the parties hereunder.

(i) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.

(j) Notices. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (A) on the delivery date if hand-delivered or sent by facsimile transmittal, (B) on the following business day if sent by documented overnight delivery service, and (C) within five (5) business days if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, in each case addressed to the respective addresses set forth below or any other address as may be designated in writing by the affected party:
