3.    Compensation.

(a)    Base Salary. During the Employment Term, the Company will pay Executive as compensation for Executive’s services an annual base salary of $425,000.00 USD per year, as may be increased from time to time at the discretion of the Board or a duly constituted committee of the Board (the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary will be paid in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices (subject to required withholding and applicable deductions). Any increase in Base Salary (together with the then existing Base Salary) shall serve as the “Base Salary” for future employment under this Agreement. The first and last installment payment(s) will be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect a commencement or termination date other than the first or last working day of a pay period.

(b)    Annual Bonus. Executive will be eligible for an annual target bonus of one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s Base Salary that may be awarded in cash and/or equity at the Company’s discretion. The actual bonus paid, if any, shall be based on the attainment of Company and Executive performance objectives established by the Board or a duly constituted committee of the Board (“Committee”) and communicated in advance to Executive (“Annual Bonus”), with any Annual Bonus actually payable to the Executive determined by the Board or its Committee. To be eligible to receive such Annual Bonus, if any, Executive must be employed by the Company on the last day of the Company’s fiscal year.

7.    Termination on Death or Disability.

(a)    Executive’s employment will terminate automatically upon Executive’s death or, upon fourteen (14) days prior written notice from the Company, in the event of Disability (as defined below).

(b)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means that Executive, at the time notice is given, has been unable to perform the essential duties of Executive position for not less than one-hundred and eighty (180) work days within a twelve (12) consecutive month period as a result of Executive’s incapacity due to a physical or mental condition and, if reasonable accommodation is required by law, after any reasonable accommodation, as determined by a physician selected by the Company and the Executive. If the Company and the Executive cannot agree on physician, each party shall select a physician and the two physicians shall select a third who shall be the approved physician for this purpose. Upon any termination for death or Disability (as defined in the preceding sentence), Executive shall be entitled to: (i) Executive’s Base Salary through the effective date of termination; (ii) any Annual Bonus earned but not yet paid, which shall be paid at the time the Company pays annual bonuses to its other senior executives; (iii) the right to continue health care benefits under COBRA, at Executive’s cost, to the extent required and available by law; (iv) reimbursement of expenses for which Executive is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to Section 6 above, but for which Executive has not yet been reimbursed; and (v) all other amounts and benefits

of any kind required by law or pursuant to any other Company plans or policies, as then in effect (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”).

8.    Involuntary Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason.

(a)    Effect of Termination. The Company shall be entitled to terminate Executive with or without Cause (as defined below), provided the Company may not terminate the Executive for Cause unless and until the Executive has been given a reasonable opportunity to appear in person before a meeting of the Board with his counsel and given and adequate opportunity to be heard. Executive may resign with or without Good Reason.

(i)    If Executive is terminated by the Company for any reason or the Executive resigns with or without Good Reason, the Company will pay Executive the Accrued Obligations.

(ii)    If Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause (excluding any termination due to death or Disability (as defined above)), or Executive resigns for Good Reason (as defined below), then, in either case, and subject to the limitations of Sections 8(b) and 24 below, Executive shall be entitled to receive:

(1)    severance pay in the form of a lump sum payment equal to three times Executive’s Base Salary and target annual bonus, as then in effect (less applicable withholding) within sixty (60) days following Executive’s termination of employment;

(2)    100% accelerated vesting of all of Executive’s then unvested stock options, restricted stock units and other equity-based awards; and

(3)    if Executive timely elects continuation coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) within the time period prescribed pursuant to COBRA for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents, then the Company will reimburse Executive for the COBRA premiums for such coverage (at the coverage levels in effect immediately prior to Executive’s termination) until the earlier of (A) a period of thirty-six (36) months from the date of termination or (B) the date upon which Executive and/or Executive’s eligible dependents are no longer eligible for COBRA continuation coverage. The reimbursements will be made by the Company to Executive consistent with the Company’s normal expense reimbursement policy. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 8(a)(i)(2), if the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the foregoing benefit without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company will in lieu thereof provide to Executive a taxable lump sum payment in an amount equal to eighteen months of the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue the group health coverage for Executive and/or Executive’s eligible dependents in effect on the termination of employment date (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), which payment will be made within sixty (60) days of Executive’s termination of employment regardless of whether Executive and/or Executive’s eligible dependents elect COBRA continuation coverage. For the avoidance of doubt, the taxable payment in lieu of COBRA reimbursements may be used for any

purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to all applicable tax withholdings.

(iii)    Upon a Change in Control vesting on all of Executive’s then unvested stock options, restricted stock units and any other equity-based awards shall be accelerated such that no less than 100% are fully vested as of the date of the Change in Control. Except as specifically revised by this Agreement, the exercise of Executive’s vested options and shares shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s applicable stock plan and stock agreements.

(b)    Conditions Precedent. Any severance payments and/or benefits contemplated by Section 8(a) above are conditional on Executive: (i) continuing to comply with the terms of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below); (ii) delivering, and not revoking, in the form reasonably acceptable to the Company, a general release of claims relating to Executive’s employment and/or this Agreement against the Company or its successor, its subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and stockholders, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, (a “Release”) that becomes effective and irrevocable by the sixtieth (60th) day following the termination of Executive’s employment (the “Release Deadline”); and (iii) in the event of a resignation for Good Reason, providing the Company with written notice of the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for Good Reason within ninety (90) days-of Executive’s actual knowledge of the initial existence of the grounds for Good Reason and an opportunity for the Company to cure the conditions giving rise to such Good Reason, which shall end thirty (30) days following the date of notice from Executive. If the Company fails to cure the condition(s) giving rise to such Good Reason within the thirty (30) day cure period, Executive must resign from employment within nine (90) days after the end of the cure period. If the Company cures the conditions giving rise to such Good Reason within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice, Executive will not be entitled to severance payments and/or benefits contemplated by Section 8(a) above if Executive thereafter resigns from the Company based on such grounds. In no event will severance payments or benefits be paid or provided until the Release actually becomes effective and irrevocable. If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under this Agreement. If the Release becomes effective by the Release Deadline, payment of severance or other benefits under this Agreement will commence on the Company’s next regular payroll period following the 60-day anniversary of the date of Executive’s termination, subject to Section 24. Except as required by Section 23, any payments delayed from the date of Executive’s employment terminates through the Release Deadline will be payable in a lump sum without interest on the Company’s next regular payroll period following the 60-day anniversary of the date of Executive’s termination, and all other amounts will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8(b) shall not limit Executive’s ability to obtain expense reimbursements under Section 6 or any other compensation or benefits otherwise required by law or in accordance with written Company plans or policies, as then in effect.

24.    Section 409A.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s termination (other than due to death), then the Deferred Payments, if any, that are payable within the first six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Executive dies following Executive’s separation from service, but before the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment under Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

(c)    It is intended that any amount paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-l (b)(4) of the Treasury

Regulations will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.

(d)    It is intended that any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A -l (b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit (as defined below) will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above. “Section 409A Limit” will mean two (2) times the lesser of: (i) Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to Executive during the Executive’s taxable year preceding the Executive’s taxable year of Executive’s termination of employment as determined under, and with such adjustments as are set forth in, Treasury Regulation 1.409A- l(b)(9)(iii)(A)( l) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(l7) of the Code for the year in which Executive’s employment is terminated.

(e)    To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, all such reimbursements and in-kind benefits shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (1) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement); (2) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (3) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred; and (4) the right to reimbursement or in kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(f)    The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. The Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition before actual payment to Executive under Section 409A. Executive agrees and acknowledges that the Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the application of Section 409A and other tax consequences to any payments hereunder and, by the acceptance of any such payments, Executive agrees to accept the potential application of Section 409A and the other tax consequences of any payments made hereunder.
