This Stock Option is not intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” as defined in Section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the “Code”).

1. Definitions. For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Plan.

Bankruptcy” shall mean (i) the filing of a voluntary petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or a petition for the appointment of a receiver or the making of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, with respect to the Optionee or any Permitted Transferee, as the case may be, or (ii) the Optionee or any Permitted Transferee, as the case may be, being subjected involuntarily to such a petition or assignment or to an attachment or other legal or equitable interest with respect to the Optionee’s or such Permitted Transferee’s assets, which involuntary petition or assignment or attachment is not discharged within 60 days after its date, and (iii) the Optionee or any Permitted Transferee being subject to a transfer of the Stock Option or the Issued Shares by operation of law (including by divorce, even if not insolvent), except by reason of death.


Cause” means a vote of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) resolving that Grantee should be dismissed as a result of (i) Grantee’s conviction of a felony; (ii) Grantee engaging in any other act of fraud, intentional misrepresentation, moral turpitude, misappropriation or embezzlement, illegality or unlawful harassment which, as determined by the Board in good faith and in light of all available facts, would: (A) materially adversely affect the business or the reputation of the Company with its current or prospective customers, suppliers, lenders and/or other third parties with whom the Company does or might do business; or (B) expose the Company to a risk of material civil or criminal legal damages, liabilities or penalties; (iii) the repeated willful failure by Grantee to follow the reasonable directives of the Board in connection with the business affairs of the Company; or (iv) any material breach by Grantee of this Agreement or material violation of the Company’s policies; or (v) willful and deliberate non-performance of duty by Grantee in connection with the business affairs of the Company, provided, however, in the event of termination based on (iii), (iv) or (v), Grantee will have a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to Grantee from the Company to cure the circumstance, if curable. In the event that the Grantee is a party to an employment agreement with the Company or any Subsidiary that contains a different definition of “cause,” the definition set forth in such other agreement shall be applicable to the Grantee for purposes of this Agreement and not this definition.

EBITDA” shall mean the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as determined by the Board in good faith.

Fair Market Value” of the Common Stock on any given date means the fair market value of the Stock determined in good faith by the Committee based on the reasonable application of a reasonable valuation method not inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code. If the Common Stock is admitted to quotation on a national securities exchange, the determination shall be made by reference to market quotations. If there are no market quotations for such date, the determination shall be made by reference to the last date preceding such date for which there are market quotations; provided further, however, that if the date for which Fair Market Value is determined is the first day when trading prices for the Common Stock are reported on a national securities exchange, the Fair Market Value shall be the “Price to the Public” (or equivalent) set forth on the cover page for the final prospectus relating to the Company’s Initial Public Offering.

Permitted Transferees” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Stockholders Agreement.

Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership (limited or general), limited liability company, limited liability partnership, association, trust, joint venture, unincorporated organization or any similar entity.

Sale Event” shall mean and include any of the following: (a) consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity in which holders of the Company’s voting securities immediately prior to such merger or consolidation will not, directly or indirectly, continue to hold at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; (b) a sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a related series of transactions) of all or substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries assets on a consolidated basis to an unrelated person or entity; (c) the acquisition by

 

2


any person or any group of persons, acting together in any transaction or related series of transactions, of such quantity of the Company’s voting securities as causes such person, or group of persons, to own beneficially, directly or indirectly, as of the time immediately after such transaction or series of transactions, 50 percent or more of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company other than as a result of (i) an acquisition of securities directly from the Company or (ii) an acquisition of securities by the Company which by reducing the voting securities outstanding increases the proportionate voting power represented by the voting securities owned by any such person or group of persons to 50 percent or more of the combined voting power of such voting securities; or (d) the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Service Relationship” shall mean any relationship as an employee, part-time employee, director or other key person (including consultants) of the Company or any Subsidiary or any successor entity such that, for example, a Service Relationship shall be deemed to continue without interruption in the event the Optionee’s status changes from full-time employee to part-time employee or consultant.

Subsidiary” means any corporation or other entity (other than the Company) in which the Company has at least a fifty percent (50%) interest, either directly or indirectly.

2. Vesting, Exercisability and Termination.

(a) No portion of this Stock Option may be exercised until such portion shall have vested.

(b) Except as set forth below, and subject to the determination of the Committee in its sole discretion to accelerate the vesting schedule hereunder, this Stock Option shall be vested and exercisable with respect to the Option Shares on the respective dates indicated below:

(i) (A) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Time-Vested Option Shares will become vested on [                    ] and (B) the remaining Time-Vested Option Shares will become vested in equal installments on a monthly basis over the 36-month period following [                    ].

(ii) The Performance-Vested Option Shares will become vested in accordance with the following schedule effective upon the good faith confirmation by at least a majority of the members of the Board that EBITDA for such fiscal year equals or exceeds the target EBITDA for such fiscal year (as set forth in the schedule below, the “Target EBITDA”); provided that Grantee is and has been continuously employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries through the end of such fiscal year. Upon confirmation by the Board that EBITDA for any given fiscal year does not equal or exceed the applicable Target EBITDA, then all Performance-Vested Option Shares for such fiscal year that would have otherwise vested had EBITDA equaled or exceeded the applicable Target EBITDA, shall not be vested (the “Unvested Restricted Stock”); provided that, if EBITDA for the following fiscal year does equal or exceed the applicable Target EBITDA of such following fiscal year, then such Unvested Restricted Stock for such prior fiscal year shall vest upon confirmation that the Target EBITDA of such following

 

3


fiscal year was equaled or exceeded; provided further that, if EBITDA for the following year also does not equal or exceed the applicable Target EBITDA for such following fiscal year, then the Unvested Restricted Stock of the prior fiscal year shall be subject to repurchase by the Company at any time at Grantee’s original cost.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of a Sale Event, this Stock Option and the Shares shall be treated as provided in Section 3(c) of the Plan. [INSERT ANY APPLICABLE ACCELERATION HERE.]

(d) Termination. Except as may otherwise be provided by the Committee, if the Optionee’s Service Relationship is terminated, the period within which to exercise this Stock Option will be subject to earlier termination as set forth below (and if not exercised within such period, shall thereafter terminate):

(i) Termination Due to Death or Disability. If the Optionee’s Service Relationship terminates by reason of such Optionee’s death or disability (as defined in Section 422(c) of the Code), this Stock Option may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of such termination, by the Optionee, the Optionee’s legal representative or legatee for a period of 12 months from the date of death or disability or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.

(ii) Other Termination. If the Optionee’s Service Relationship terminates for any reason other than death or disability (as defined in Section 422(c) of the Code), and unless otherwise determined by the Committee, this Stock Option may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of termination, for a period of 90 days from the date of termination or until the Expiration Date or other termination date, if earlier; provided however, if the Optionee’s Service Relationship is terminated for Cause, this Stock Option shall terminate immediately upon the date of such termination.

For purposes hereof, the Committee’s determination of the reason for termination of the Optionee’s employment shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and his or her representatives or legatees or Permitted Transferees. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of termination of the employment shall terminate immediately and be null and void.

3. Exercise of Stock Option.

(a) The Optionee may exercise this Stock Option only in the following manner: Prior to the Expiration Date, the Optionee may deliver a Stock Option exercise notice (an “Exercise Notice”) in the form of Appendix A hereto indicating his or her election to purchase some or all of the Option Shares with respect to which this Stock Option is exercisable at the time of such notice. Such notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be purchased. Payment of the purchase price may be made by one or more of the methods described below (payment instruments will be received subject to collection):

(i) In cash, by certified or bank check, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or other instrument acceptable to the Committee in U.S. funds payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the purchase price of such Option Shares;

(ii) By the Optionee delivering to the Company a promissory note if the Board has expressly authorized the loan of funds to the Optionee for the purpose of enabling or assisting the Optionee to effect the exercise of his or her Stock Option; provided, that at least so much of the exercise price as represents the par value of the Stock shall be paid other than with a promissory note if otherwise required by state law; or

(iii) if the Initial Public Offering has occurred, then (A) through the delivery (or attestation to ownership) of shares of Stock that have been purchased by the Optionee on the open market or that are beneficially owned by the Optionee and are not subject to restrictions under any plan of the Company, provided that, to the extent required to avoid variable accounting treatment under ASC 718 or other applicable accounting rules, such surrendered shares shall have been owned by the Optionee for at least six months, and in any event with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date of such exercise) equal to the option purchase price, (B) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed Exercise Notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay the option purchase price as so provided, the Optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Committee shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure, or (C) a combination of (i), (ii), (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) above.

(b) Certificates for the Option Shares so purchased will be issued and delivered to the Optionee upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Committee with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such issuance. The Optionee shall be required to sign the Stockholders Agreement in connection with the exercise of the Stock Option. Until the Optionee shall have complied with the requirements hereof and of the Plan, the Company shall be under no obligation to issue the Option Shares subject to this Stock Option, and the determination of the Committee as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the Optionee. The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares of Common Stock subject to this Stock Option

 

5


unless and until this Stock Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall have issued and delivered the Issued Shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee’s name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such Issued Shares, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion of this Stock Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

4. Incorporation of Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Stock Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan.

5. Transferability of Stock Option. This Agreement is personal to the Optionee and is not transferable by the Optionee in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The Stock Option may be exercised during the Optionee’s lifetime only by the Optionee (or by the Optionee’s guardian or personal representative in the event of the Optionee’s incapacity). The Optionee may elect to designate a beneficiary by providing written notice of the name of such beneficiary to the Company, and may revoke or change such designation at any time by filing written notice of revocation or change with the Company; such beneficiary may exercise the Optionee’s Stock Option in the event of the Optionee’s death to the extent provided herein. If the Optionee does not designate a beneficiary, or if the designated beneficiary predeceases the Optionee, the legal representative of the Optionee may exercise this Stock Option to the extent provided herein in the event of the Optionee’s death.

6. Effect of Certain Transactions.

(a) In the case of a Sale Event, this Stock Option shall terminate upon the effective time of such Sale Event unless provision is made in connection with such transaction, in the sole discretion of the parties thereto, for the continuation or assumption of this Stock Option heretofore granted, or the substitution of this Stock Option with a new Stock Option of the successor entity or a parent thereof, with such adjustment to the number and kind of shares and the per share exercise prices as such parties shall agree. In the event of such a termination, the Optionee shall be permitted, for a specified period of time prior to the consummation of the Sale Event as determined by the Committee, to exercise all portions of the Stock Option which are then exercisable.

(b) In the event that this Stock Option is converted into a Converted Award, then this Agreement shall thereafter entitle the holder to the rights of a holder of a Converted Award.

7. Withholding Taxes. The Optionee shall, not later than the date as of which the exercise of this Stock Option becomes a taxable event for federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for payment of any federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event. Subject to approval by the Committee, the Optionee may elect to have the minimum tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by authorizing the Company to withhold from shares of Common Stock to be issued or transferring to the Company, a number of shares of Common

 

6


Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the minimum withholding amount due. The Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company has the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to the Optionee, or from the Option Shares to be issued in respect of an exercise of this Stock Option, any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the issuance of Option Shares to the Optionee.

8. Restrictions on Transfer of Issued Shares.

(a) Stockholders Agreement. The Issued Shares shall be subject to the transfer and other restrictions contained in the Stockholders Agreement.

(b) Opinion of Counsel. No holder of Issued Shares may sell, transfer or dispose of such Issued Shares (except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act) without first delivering to the Company, if requested by the Company in its sole discretion, an opinion of counsel (reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Company) that neither registration nor qualification under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws is required in connection with such transfer.

9. Company’s Right of Repurchase.

(a) Right of Repurchase. The Company shall have the right (the “Repurchase Right”) upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 9(b) below (the “Repurchase Event”) to repurchase from the Optionee (or any Permitted Transferee) some or all (as determined by the Company) of the Issued Shares held or subsequently acquired upon exercise of this Stock Option in accordance with the terms hereof by the Optionee (or any Permitted Transferee) at the price per share specified below (the “Repurchase Price”). The Repurchase Right may be exercised by the Company within the later of (i) six months following the date of such event or (ii) seven months after the exercise of this Stock Option (the “Repurchase Period”). The Repurchase Right shall be exercised by the Company by giving the Optionee or any Permitted Transferee written notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) on or before the last day of the Repurchase Period of its intention to exercise the Repurchase Right, and, together with the Repurchase Notice, tendering to the Optionee or any Permitted Transferee the Repurchase Price for the shares being repurchased. The Company may assign the Repurchase Right to one or more Persons. Upon such notification, the Optionee and any Permitted Transferees shall promptly surrender to the Company any certificates representing the Issued Shares being repurchased, together with a duly executed stock power for the transfer of such Issued Shares to the Company or the Company’s assignee or assignees. Upon the Company’s or its assignee’s receipt of the certificates from the Optionee or any Permitted Transferees (or at such later date as is determined necessary by the Committee to avoid any breach by the Company of any agreement to which it is a party), the Company or its assignee or assignees shall deliver to him, her or them a check for the Repurchase Price of the Issued Shares being purchased; provided, however, that the Company may pay the Repurchase Price for such shares by offsetting and canceling any indebtedness then owed by the Optionee to the Company. The Repurchase Right shall terminate in accordance with Section 12(a).

 

7


(b) Company’s Right to Exercise Repurchase Right. The Company shall have the Repurchase Right in the event that any of the following events shall occur:

(i) The termination of the Optionee’s Service Relationship for any reason whatsoever, regardless of the circumstances thereof, and including without limitation upon death, disability, retirement, discharge or resignation for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily; or

(ii) The Optionee’s or Permitted Transferee’s Bankruptcy.

(c) Repurchase Price. The Repurchase Price for any Issued Shares being repurchased hereunder shall be (i) in the case of any such repurchase following a termination of the Optionee’s Service Relationship by the Company for Cause, the lesser of the amount paid by the Optionee to acquire such Issued Shares and the Fair Market Value of such Issued Shares and (ii) in the case of any other Repurchase Event, the Fair Market Value of such Issued Shares.

(d) Determination of Fair Market Value. The Fair Market Value of the Issued Shares shall be, for purposes of this Section 9, determined by the Board as of the date the Board elects to exercise its repurchase rights in connection with a Repurchase Event.

(e) TB’s Repurchase Right. If the Company does not elect to repurchase all of the Issued Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Right, TB shall be entitled to exercise the Repurchase Right for the Issued Shares that the Company has elected not to purchase (the “Available Shares”). As soon as practicable, but in any event within 90 days after a Repurchase Event, the Company shall give written notice (the “Option Notice”) to TB setting forth the number of Available Shares and the Repurchase Price for the Available Shares, determined in accordance with Section 9(c) above. TB may elect to purchase any or all of the Available Shares by giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after the Option Notice has been given by the Company. As soon as practicable, and in any event within ten days after the expiration of the 30-day period set forth above, the Company shall notify the Optionee of the number of shares of Stock being repurchased from such Optionee by TB (the “Supplemental Repurchase Notice”). At the time the Company delivers the Supplemental Repurchase Notice to the Optionee, the Company shall also deliver written notice to TB setting for the number of shares TB is entitled to repurchase, the aggregate Repurchase Price and the time and place of the closing of the transaction.

(f) The closing of the purchase of the Issued Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Right shall take place on the date designated by the Company in the Repurchase Notice or, if later, the Supplemental Repurchase Notice, which date shall be not more than 30 days but not less than five days after the delivery of the later of such notices. The Company will pay for the Issued Shares to be purchased by it pursuant to the Repurchase Right by first offsetting amounts outstanding under any bona fide debts for money borrowed from the Company or for travel and expense advances owed by the Optionee to the Company (or one or more of the Optionee’s Permitted Transferees, other than the Company or TB); upon full repayment of such bona fide debts, the Company will make payment by (i) a check or wire transfer of funds in the aggregate amount of the remaining purchase price for such Issued Shares or (ii) in the event that the Board determines that a cash payment would breach, violate or

 

8


constitute a default under any statute, regulation, contract or agreement to which the Company is a party or is subject or would otherwise be materially injurious to the Company, then by delivery of a subordinated note in the aggregate amount of the remaining purchase price for such Issued Shares payable in equal annual installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing of the purchase of the Issued Shares and accruing interest at the applicable federal rate (which shall be payable upon payment of the principal amount of such note, which note shall be prepayable in full or in part at any time without penalty or premium). TB will pay for the Issued Shares to be purchased by it pursuant to the Repurchase Right by delivery of a check or wire transfer of funds in the aggregate amount of the purchase price for such shares. The Company and TB will be entitled to receive customary representations and warranties from the sellers regarding such sale and to require all sellers signatures be guaranteed.

(g) The repurchase of the Issued Shares by the Company shall be subject to the applicable restrictions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law and in the Company’s and its Subsidiaries debt and equity financing agreements. If any such restrictions prohibit the purchase of the Issued Shares which the Company is otherwise entitled to make, the Company may, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, delay any such purchases until such time as it is permitted to do so under the restrictions.

10. Escrow Arrangement.

(a) Escrow. In order to carry out the provisions of Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement more effectively, the Company shall hold any Issued Shares in escrow together with separate stock powers executed by the Optionee in blank for transfer, and any Permitted Transferee shall, as an additional condition to any transfer of Issued Shares, execute a like stock power as to such Issued Shares. The Company shall not dispose of the Issued Shares except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In the event of any repurchase by the Company (or any of its assigns), the Company is hereby authorized by the Optionee and any Permitted Transferee, as the Optionee’s and each such Permitted Transferee’s attorney-in-fact, to date and complete the stock powers necessary for the transfer of the Issued Shares being purchased and to transfer such Issued Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. At such time as any Issued Shares are no longer subject to the Company’s repurchase rights and the transfer restrictions, the Company shall, at the written request of the Optionee, deliver to the Optionee (or the relevant Permitted Transferee) a certificate representing such Issued Shares with the balance of the Issued Shares to be held in escrow pursuant to this Section 10.

(b) Remedy. Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement or other rights, in the event that the Optionee, any Permitted Transferees or any other person or entity is required to sell the Optionee’s Issued Shares pursuant to the provisions of Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement and in the further event that he or she refuses or for any reason fails to deliver to the Company or its designated purchaser of such Issued Shares the certificate or certificates evidencing such Issued Shares together with a related stock power, the Company or such designated purchaser may deposit the applicable purchase price for such Issued Shares with a bank designated by the Company, or with the Company’s independent public accounting firm, as agent or trustee, or in escrow, for the Optionee, any Permitted Transferees or other person or entity, to be held by such bank or accounting firm for the benefit of and for delivery to him, her, them or it, and/or, in its discretion, pay such purchase price by offsetting any indebtedness then

 

9


owed by the Optionee as provided above. Upon any such deposit and/or offset by the Company or its designated purchaser of such amount and upon notice to the person or entity who was required to sell the Issued Shares to be sold pursuant to the provisions of Sections 8 and 9, such Issued Shares shall at such time be deemed to have been sold, assigned, transferred and conveyed to such purchaser, the holder thereof shall have no further rights thereto (other than the right to withdraw the payment thereof held in escrow, if applicable), and the Company shall record such transfer in its stock transfer book or in any appropriate manner.

11. Lockup Provision. The Optionee agrees, if requested by the Company and any underwriter engaged by the Company, not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any securities of the Company (including, without limitation, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act) held by him or her for (a) 180 days following the effective date of the relevant registration statement filed under the Act in connection with the Company’s Initial Public Offering, or (b) 90 days following the effective date of the relevant registration statement in connection with any other public offering of Stock, as the Company and such underwriter shall specify reasonably and in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if: (x) during the last 17 days of the foregoing 180-day period or 90-day period, as applicable, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or (y) prior to the expiration of the 180-day period or 90-day period, as applicable, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the period, then the restrictions described above shall continue to apply until the expiration of an 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. The Optionee agrees, if requested by the underwriter engaged by the Company, to execute a separate letter reflecting the agreement set forth in this Section 11.

12. Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a) Termination. The Company’s repurchase rights under Section 9 shall terminate upon the closing of the Company’s Initial Public Offering or upon consummation of any Sale Event, in either case as a result of which shares of the Company (or successor entity) of the same class as the Issued Shares are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and publicly traded on any national securities exchange.

(b) Equitable Relief. The parties hereto agree and declare that legal remedies may be inadequate to enforce the provisions of this Agreement and that equitable relief, including specific performance and injunctive relief, may be used to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure. If, as a result of any reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in the Common Stock, the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or decreased or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of the Company’s stock, the restrictions contained in this Agreement shall apply with equal force to additional and/or substitute securities, if any, received by the Optionee in exchange for, or by virtue of his or her ownership of, Issued Shares.

 

10


(d) Change and Modifications. This Agreement may not be orally changed, modified or terminated, nor shall any oral waiver of any of its terms be effective. This Agreement may be changed, modified or terminated only by an agreement in writing signed by the Company and the Optionee.

(e) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope hereof, and as to all other matters shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of Texas.

(f) Headings. The headings are intended only for convenience in finding the subject matter and do not constitute part of the text of this Agreement and shall not be considered in the interpretation of this Agreement.

(g) Saving Clause. If any provision(s) of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, such determination shall in no manner affect the legality or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

TB is an intended third party beneficiary of certain provisions of this Agreement.

Except as provided below, any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity hereof shall be finally settled by binding arbitration conducted expeditiously in accordance with the J.A.M.S./Endispute Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “J.A.M.S. Rules”). The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1-16, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of arbitration shall be Austin, Texas.

The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration shall commence within 60 days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by any party hereto.

connection with any arbitration, each party shall provide to the other, no later than seven business days before the date of the arbitration, the identity of all persons that may testify at the arbitration and a copy of all documents that may be introduced at the arbitration or considered or used by a party’s witness or expert. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall be made and delivered within six months of the selection of the arbitrator.

The arbitrator shall not have power to award damages in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under this Agreement, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages.

The parties covenant and agree that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith. This Section 12(j) applies equally to requests for temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, except that in the case of temporary or preliminary injunctive relief any party may proceed in court without prior arbitration for the limited purpose of avoiding immediate and irreparable harm.

Each of the parties hereto (i) hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any United States District Court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of enforcing the award or decision in any such proceeding, (ii) hereby waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution (except as protected by applicable law), that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court, and hereby waives and agrees not to seek any review by any court of any other jurisdiction which may be called upon to grant an enforcement of the judgment of any such court. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to service of process by registered mail at the address to which notices are to be given. Each of the parties hereto agrees that its, his or her submission to jurisdiction and its, his or her consent to service of process by mail is made for the express benefit of the other parties hereto. Final judgment against any party hereto in any such action, suit or proceeding may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit, action or proceeding on the judgment, or in any other manner provided by or pursuant to the laws of such other jurisdiction.

(k) Counterparts. For the convenience of the parties and to facilitate execution, this Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same document.
