2.1    Salary. For services to be rendered hereunder, Executive shall receive a base salary at the rate of $650,000 per year (the “Base Salary”), subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings and payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll schedule.

Executive specifically warrants that Executive is not subject to an employment agreement or restrictive covenant preventing full performance of Executive’s duties for the Company. Executive agrees not to bring to the Company or use in the performance of Executive’s responsibilities any materials or documents of a former employer that are not generally available to the public unless Executive has obtained express written

authorization from the former employer. Executive further agrees to honor all obligations to former employers during the course of Executive’s employment with the Company.

6.    Outside Activities During Employment; Dispute Resolution

6.1    Non-Company Business. Except with the prior written consent of the Board, Executive will not during the term of Executive’s employment with the Company undertake or engage in any other employment, occupation or business enterprise, other than ones in which Executive is a passive investor; provided, however, that Executive may (i) engage in activities that do not interfere with his duties and obligations under this Agreement or create an actual or potential conflict of interest with the Company as reasonably determined by the Board, and (ii) serve as a member of the Board of Directors on a maximum one (1) publicly traded company subject to the approval of the Board with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; provided that Executive may maintain his two (2) current public company Board affiliations through December 31, 2020. Executive may serve as a member of the Board of Directors of private companies and/or engage in civic and not-for-profit activities so long as such service or activities do not materially interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

6.2    No Adverse Interests. Executive agrees not to acquire, assume or participate in, directly or indirectly, any position, investment or interest known to be adverse or antagonistic to the Company, its business or prospects, financial or otherwise.

6.3    Dispute Resolution. To ensure timely and economical resolution of any disputes that may arise in connection with Executive’s employment with the Company, as a condition of Executive’s employment, Executive and the Company hereby agree that any and all claims, disputes or controversies of any nature whatsoever arising out of, or relating to, this letter, or its interpretation, enforcement, breach, performance or execution, Executive’s employment with the Company, or the termination of such employment, shall be resolved, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final, binding and confidential arbitration conducted before a single arbitrator by JAMS or its successor, under the then applicable JAMS arbitration rules (which can be found at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-clauses/). The arbitration shall take place in San Jose, California; provided, however, that if the arbitrator determines there will be an undue hardship to Executive to have the arbitration in such location, the arbitrator will choose an alternative appropriate location. Executive and the Company each acknowledge that by agreeing to this arbitration procedure, both Executive and the Company waive the right to resolve any such dispute, claim or demand through a trial by jury or judge or by administrative proceeding. Executive will have the right to be represented by legal counsel at Executive’s expense at any arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator shall: (i) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution of the dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be available under applicable law in a court proceeding; and (ii) issue a written statement signed by the arbitrator regarding the disposition of each claim and the relief, if any, awarded as to each claim, the reasons for the award, and the arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator, and not a court, shall also be authorized to determine whether the provisions of this paragraph apply to a dispute, controversy, or claim sought to be resolved in accordance

with these arbitration procedures. The Company shall pay all costs and fees in excess of the amount of court fees that Executive would be required to incur if the dispute were filed or decided in a court of law. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent either Executive or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any arbitration.
