Executive shall report directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

1.2 Executive agrees to devote his primary business time, energies, skills, efforts and attention to his duties hereunder and will not, without the prior consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, render any material services to any other business concern. Reasonable bases for the Company to withhold consent include, without limitation, unreasonable interference with, or other incompatibility with, Executive’s duties to the Company, so long as such bases are stated in writing by the Company.

1.3 Except for routine travel incident to the business of the Company or the performance of his duties, Executive shall perform services hereunder primarily at the Company’s offices in Hawthorne, California, or at such other place as Executive and the Company may from time to time agree.

This Agreement shall automatically renew for one successive one-year period upon the same terms and conditions set forth herein (provided, however, that the parties may agree to revise any of the terms of the Agreement at any time) unless either party provides notice of non-renewal to the other no less than 60 days prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date. Following renewal, provided the parties mutually so desire, no later than sixty (60) days prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date, the parties shall enter into negotiations for a successive multi-year employment agreement.

6. PROTECTION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; NON-SOLICIT.

6.1 Executive acknowledges that his work for the Company will bring him into close contact with many confidential affairs of the Company not readily available to the public, and hereby agrees that he will not at any time (both during the Term and thereafter) disclose to any person, including any legal entity (except the Company and its Affiliates), any Confidential Information, and will only use Confidential Information for the Company’s benefit; provided, however, that Executive may use and disclose Confidential Information to the extent necessary to assert any right or defend against any claim arising under this Agreement or pertaining to Confidential Information or its use, to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable statute, constitution, treaty, rule, regulation, ordinance or order, or if Executive receives a request to disclose all or any part of the information contained in the Confidential Information under the terms of a subpoena, order, civil investigative demand or similar process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental body or agency after giving prior notice to the Company. “Confidential Information” means information or documents Executive has access to during the Term which relate to the Company’s operations, marketing, sales, or product development including, without limitation, records that are identified as, or that can reasonably be characterized as, confidential; employee names, duties and contact information; customer identities and lists, customer contacts, information about customer requirements and preferences; forecasts, budgets, and other financial information; plans, strategic, tactical or otherwise; data, computer programs, manuals, formulae, specifications, processes, methods, intangible rights and other similar items; provided that “Confidential Information” does not include information that at the time of disclosure has previously been made generally available to the public by any authorized action of the Company or is otherwise available to the public. “Affiliate” is a person or entity that directly, or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company.

6.2 Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Executive shall return to the Company all Confidential Information in his possession, custody or control.

6.3 Executive agrees that he will not, during the Term and for a period of two years thereafter, solicit, directly or indirectly, any individual who was an employee of the Company as of the Completion Date, or within 60 days prior to the Completion Date, to terminate his/her employment with the Company, or personally employ any such employee. Nothing herein shall prevent Executive from, at some point in the future, working for an entity which may also employ former employees of the Company.

7. GRANT OF RIGHTS.

7.1 Executive hereby grants, transfers, conveys and assigns to the Company, its successors and assigns, all right, title, and interest in and to all work, materials and intellectual property of any and all forms constituting or otherwise relating to his performance of his duties hereunder, including the copyright, patent, trade secret rights, and all other right, title, and interest therein, and consisting of all source code, object code, documentation, flow charts, design documents, and record and file layouts relating thereto, and all trademarks, service marks, logos and trade dress associated therewith, and any


discovery, concept or idea, whether or not patentable, made during such performance including, but not limited to, processes, methods, formulae and techniques, improvements thereof and know-how relating thereto (collectively, the “Property”). This exclusive conveyance shall include, but is not limited to, all rights to publish, reproduce, transmit, adapt, prepare derivative works, sell, or otherwise make use of the Property (including all subsequent additions, revisions, supplements to, and versions of the Property and derivatives, regardless of nature) throughout the world, in any form or medium and in any language, and to license or otherwise transfer to others the rights commensurate herewith in connection with the Property, to file copyright and patent applications in the United States and throughout the world for the Property in the name of the Company, its successors and assigns. Executive hereby agrees that the Company, it successors and assigns may act as attorney-in-fact to execute any document that the Company, its successors or assigns deem necessary to record this grant with the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office, or elsewhere. If requested, Executive agrees to execute any and all copyright, patent, or trade secret assignments, certificates, applications or documents requested by the Company, its successors and assigns related to the Property. Executive’s grant of rights in this Agreement is irrevocable and without right of rescission by Executive.

7.2 In furtherance of, and not in contravention, limitation and/or in place of, the provisions of Section 7.1 above, Company hereby notifies Executive of California Labor Code Section 2870, which provides:

“(a) Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either: (1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the employer; or (2) Result from any work performed by the employee for the employer.

(b) To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being required to be assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.”

Executive acknowledges that he has been notified by the Company of this law, and understands that this Agreement does not apply to Property which is otherwise fully protected under the provisions of said Labor Code Section 2870. Therefore, Executive agrees to promptly disclose in writing to the Company all Property, whether or not Executive personally considers it patentable, which Executive alone, or with others, conceives or makes during his employment with Company or as is otherwise required and set forth under this Section 7.2. Company shall hold said information in strict confidence to determine the applicability of California Labor Code Section 2870 to said Property and, to the extent said Section 2870 does not apply, Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign all his right, title and interest in and to the Property which relates to business of the Company and Executive agrees not to disclose any of such Property to others without the prior written express consent of Company. Executive agrees to notify Company in writing prior to making any disclosure or performing any work during the term of his employment with Company which may conflict with any proprietary rights or technical know-how claimed by Executive as his property. In the event Executive fails to give Company notice of such conflict, Executive agrees that Executive shall have no further right or claim with respect to any such conflicting proprietary rights or technical know-how.


8. EQUITABLE REMEDIES. The parties hereto intend that the covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws of the State of California. Executive acknowledges and agrees that his breach of any provision of Sections 6 and 7 will result in irreparable harm and injury to the Company, and further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any such breach it would be extremely difficult to fix or assess actual damages resulting therefrom. In addition to any other remedy that may be available to the Company at law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled, from any court of competent jurisdiction, to a decree of specific performance and to a temporary and permanent injunction enjoining and restricting the breach, or a threatened breach, by Executive of any such provision of this Agreement.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, which may have related in any manner to the subject matter hereof. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by all the parties. The rule that a contract is construed against the party drafting the contract is hereby waived, and shall have no applicability in construing this Agreement or the terms hereof.

9.2 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

9.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, as applied to any party or to any circumstance, shall be found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid or unenforceable, the same shall in no way affect any other provision of this Agreement, the application of any such provision in any other circumstance, or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, and any provision which is found to be void, invalid or unenforceable shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary to bring such provision within the requirements of the law.

9.12 Application of Section 409A. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. This Agreement shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code shall have no force and effect until amended by the parties to comply with Section 409A (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive is a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A) and to the extent that any payment or portion of a payment under Section 4 of this Agreement is determined by the Company to constitute a “deferral of compensation” under Section 409A to which the “short-term deferral” exception does not apply, then such payment or portion of a payment shall be paid to the Executive by the Company in cash and in full, as soon as practicable following six (6) months after Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company (as such phrase is defined in Section 409A). If Executive dies before such payment or portion of a payment has been paid, such unpaid amounts shall be paid as soon as practicable following Executive’s death to the personal representative of Executive’s estate. Within five (5) days of Executive’s request, the Company shall provide Executive with a written detailed explanation of the Company’s analysis supporting its determination that Executive constitutes a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A) and that any payment is covered by Section 409A.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Employment Agreement to be effective as of the date first set forth above.
