8.1 Confidentiality. Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s Confidential Information is regarded as valuable by the Company, is not generally known in the relevant industry, and that the Company has a legitimate right and business need to protect its Confidential Information. Employee acknowledges that keeping the Company’s Confidential Information confidential is essential to the growth and stability of the Company. Employee therefore agrees to hold such information in strictest confidence and shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose such information to any third party or use such information other than for the benefit of the Company. Employee shall disclose such information only to employees, representatives, and agents of the Company with a need to know such information.

8.2 Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean any information, knowledge, or data with respect to the Company’s business, services, trade secrets, technologies, systems, clients, prospects, and sales, marketing and service methods, including, but not limited to, discoveries, ideas, concepts, designs, drawings, specifications, equipment, techniques, computer flow charts and programs, computer software (whether owned or licensed by the Company), hardware, firmware, models, data, documentation, manuals, diagrams, research and development, performance information, know-how, business pricing policies and other internal policies, data systems, methods, systems documentation, practices, inventions, processes, procedures, formulae, employee lists or resumes, financial information (including financial statements), tax returns, client lists, prospect lists, information relating to past, present or prospective clients, information belonging to the Company’s clients, personally identifiable information of clients’ employees, salary and benefit information of clients’ employees, market analysis, strategies, plans and projections for future growth and development, and compilations of information which are not readily available to the general public. Confidential Information includes all software development information, source and object codes, all information stored or maintained in any computer system or program used or maintained by the Company, all information stored or maintained in any laptop computer or handheld device provided by the Company to Employee, all client files, prospect files, legal contracts, purchase orders, and all information relating to client or vendor pricing. All of the foregoing information, whether oral, written, memorized, or electronically stored, together with analyses, compilations, studies, notes of conversation, or other documents prepared for or by the Company or Employee that contain or otherwise reflect Confidential Information, is also included with the term Confidential Information. Confidential Information does not include (a) any information in the public domain; or (b) any information received unsolicited from a third party under no obligation of secrecy.

8.3 Whistleblower Protection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or in any other agreement between Employee and the Company or any affiliate thereof shall prohibit or restrict Employee from lawfully: (a) initiating communications directly with, cooperating with, providing information to, causing information to be provided to, or otherwise assisting in an investigation by, any governmental authority (including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) regarding a possible violation of any law; (b) responding to any inquiry or legal process directed to Employee from any such governmental authority; (c) testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in any action or proceeding by any such governmental authority relating to a possible violation of law, and/or pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; or (d) making any other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable law.

Nothing in this Agreement requires Employee to obtain prior authorization before engaging in any conduct described in this paragraph, or to notify the Company or any affiliate that Employee has engaged in any such conduct.

9 Return of Confidential Information. Upon termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever or upon the written request of the Company, Employee shall immediately destroy, delete and/or return to the Company all Confidential Information and all copies, abstracts, handwritten records and electronic records thereof, and Employee shall certify in writing to the Company that Employee does not retain originals, copies, abstracts, handwritten records or electronic records of any Confidential Information. Employee agrees that retention of any such Confidential Information in Employee’s memory does not permit Employee to use or disclose such information following Employee’s termination of employment with the Company.

6

10 Ownership Rights. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall retain all ownership rights in and to the Confidential Information disclosed by it, and nothing contained in this Agreement or in any disclosure of Confidential Information shall be construed to grant Employee any license or other rights in or to the Confidential Information.

11 Covenant Not to Compete. Employee acknowledges that because of Employee’s position of trust with the Company, in the course of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee will be given access to or will become familiar with their trade secrets and with other Confidential Information, and that Employee’s services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. Therefore, Employee agrees that during Employee’s employment by the Company, Employee will not, either directly or indirectly, without prior written authorization from the Company, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, perform services for, consult with, solicit business for, participate in, or be connected with the ownership, management, operation, or control of any business which is competitive with the business of the Company on Employee’s date of termination (which includes the business of providing technology solutions related to employee engagement, talent management, payroll and benefits administration, workforce management, and related services). Employee further agrees that for a period of 18 months after Employee is no longer employed by the Company (the “Restriction Period”), throughout the United States and any other jurisdiction in which the Company is conducting business, or is considering at the Board level to conduct business, as of the Termination Date, Employee shall not, in any capacity, whether individually or jointly, as a partner, employee, consultant, officer, director, shareholder or in any other capacity, directly or indirectly, own, manage, advise, counsel, assist or engage in the ownership, management or control of, or be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or associated as a consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, with any other business that provides payroll processing services, payroll tax filing services, time and attendance solutions, human resource and benefit services, applicant tracking systems, or in any similar business that competes with the Company, and Employee will not assist any third parties to compete with the Company in any way. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any entity which are traded on any national securities exchange so long as Employee does not, directly or indirectly, own 2% or more of any class of securities of such entity.

12 Customer and Employee Restrictions. Employee acknowledges that the Company’s customers and employees now or hereafter employed by the Company are an integral part of the Company’s business, that information relating to such customers and employees are part of the Company’s Confidential Information, and that the loss of such customers and/or employees will have a substantial adverse effect on the Company’s business. Therefore, Employee agrees as follows:

12.1 Customers. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and during the Restriction Period, Employee agrees that Employee will not, either directly or indirectly, for any purpose other than for the benefit of the Company, solicit, provide sales or service to, or otherwise accept business of the type then being conducted by the Company from any person, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or other entity who:

12.1.1 is then a customer of the Company or who was a customer of the Company during the 18-month period immediately prior to Employee’s termination of employment with the Company; or

7

12.1.2 is a prospective customer with whom Employee had direct or indirect contact or about whom Employee has acquired any knowledge during the 18-month period immediately prior to Employee’s termination of employment with the Company.

In the case of a customer with multiple locations, this section applies to all locations where the Company has provided its product(s) or service(s) now or in the future. In the case of a prospective customer with multiple locations, this section applies to all locations with which Employee has had contact, or about which Employee has acquired any knowledge.

Employee further agrees that, during the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and during the Restriction Period, Employee will not either directly or indirectly, attempt to cause any person, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or other entity who is then a customer or a prospective customer of the Company or who was a customer of the Company during the 18-month period immediately prior thereto to divert such customer’s business away from the Company to any other person or entity, whether or not the Employee is affiliated with such person or entity.

12.2 Employees. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and during the Restriction Period, Employee agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or induce or attempt to solicit or induce any employee or independent contractor of the Company to leave the employ or engagement of the Company to work with the Employee or with any person or entity with whom Employee is or becomes affiliated, and Employee will not, directly or indirectly, hire or engage any employee or independent contractor of the Company to work for Employee or any entity with whom Employee is or becomes affiliated.

13 Reasonableness and Modification of Restrictions. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the provisions set forth in Sections 11 and 12 are reasonable in scope, duration, and area, and are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company, and particularly the Company’s interest in protecting its Confidential Information, and the restrictive covenants in this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other agreement between Employee and the Company addressing confidentiality, non-competition and/or non-solicitation. If any provision of Sections 11 or 12 is held to be unenforceable due to the scope, duration, or area of its application, the parties intend and agree that the court making such determination shall modify such scope, duration, or area, or all of them to what the court considers reasonable, and such provision shall then be enforced in such modified form.

14 Irreparable Harm. Because of the unique nature of the Company’s business, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company will suffer irreparable harm in the event that Employee fails to comply with any of Employee’s obligations set forth herein and that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate the Company for Employee’s breach. Accordingly, Employee agrees that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, will be entitled to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to enforce the terms of Sections 11 and 12, without the need to post any bond. Employee further agrees to reimburse the Company for all costs incurred by the Company in any legal proceeding for equitable, monetary, or other relief to enforce or protect its rights under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney fees.

15 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when (a) delivered personally or by overnight courier to the following address of the other party hereto (or such other address for such party as shall be specified by notice given pursuant to this Section 15) or (b) sent by email to the following facsimile number of the other party hereto (or such other facsimile number for such party as shall be specified by notice given pursuant to this Section 15), with the confirmatory copy delivered by overnight courier to the address of such party pursuant to this Section 15:

28 Section 409A and 280G of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary:

28.1 All provisions of this Agreement are intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and the applicable Treasury regulations and administrative guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) or an exemption therefrom and shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intent. Any payments under this Agreement that may be excluded from Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service or as a short-term deferral shall be excluded from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. Any payments to be made under this Agreement upon a termination of Employee’s employment shall only be made if such termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service” under Section 409A.

10

28.2 To the extent that any right to reimbursement of expenses or payment of any benefit in-kind under this Agreement constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A), (a) any such expense reimbursement shall be made by the Company no later than the last day of Employee’s taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred by Employee, (b) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and (c) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year; provided that, the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period in which the arrangement is in effect.

28.3 If any payment or benefit provided for herein would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A if Employee’s receipt of such payment or benefit is not delayed until the earlier of (a) the date of Employee’s death or (b) the date that is six months after the Termination Date (such date, the “Section 409A Payment Date”), then such payment or benefit shall not be provided to Employee (or Employee’s estate, if applicable) until the Section 409A Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement are exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by Employee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.

28.4 If Employee is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code), and the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement, together with any other payments and benefits which Employee has the right to receive from the Company or any of its affiliates, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), then the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement shall be either (a) reduced (but not below zero) so that the present value of such total amounts and benefits received by Employee from the Company or any of its affiliates shall be one dollar ($1.00) less than three times Employee’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) and so that no portion of such amounts and benefits received by Employee shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or (b) paid in full, whichever produces the better net after-tax position to Employee (taking into account any applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code and any other applicable taxes). The reduction of payments and benefits hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing, first, payments or benefits to be paid in cash hereunder in the order in which such payment or benefit would be paid or provided (beginning with such payment or benefit that would be made last in time and continuing, to the extent necessary, through to such payment or benefit that would be made first in time) and, then, reducing any benefit to be provided in-kind hereunder in a similar order. The determination as to whether any such reduction in the amount of the payments and benefits provided hereunder is necessary shall be made by the Company in good faith. If a reduced payment or benefit is made or provided and through error or otherwise that payment or benefit, when aggregated with other payments and benefits from the Company or any of its affiliates used in determining if a “parachute payment” exists, exceeds one dollar ($1.00) less than three times Employee’s base amount, then Employee shall immediately repay such excess to the Company upon notification that an overpayment has been made. Nothing in this Section 28 shall require any member of the Company to be responsible for, or have any liability or obligation with respect to, Employee’s excise tax liabilities under Section 4999 of the Code.
