Employee acknowledges and agrees that violation of this Section 7 may subject Employee to disciplinary action, including, without limitation, termination of employment.

For the avoidance of doubt, this subsection shall not operate to waive or extinguish any rights or claims of Employee that cannot be waived or extinguished under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this subsection shall preclude Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company, in its sole discretion, from seeking or initiating a subsequent employment, business, or other relationship with Employee or a person or entity associated with Employee.

(e) Return of Company Property. In the event of any termination of this Agreement, Employee shall immediately return to Company, without limitation, all papers, materials, reports, memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, software, and any other documents or items of whatever nature owned by Company or supplied to Employee by Company in connection with, or in the course of, Employee’s employment.

(f) Cooperation. Employee agrees to fully cooperate with Company and its attorneys in connection with any pending or future litigation, claim, dispute, investigation, or other proceeding arising out of or relating to (i) matters of which Employee has knowledge or, if Employee’s employment has terminated, (ii) matters of which Employee was involved prior to the termination of Employee’s employment. Employee’s cooperation shall include, without limitation, providing assistance to Company’s counsel, experts, and consultants, and providing truthful testimony in pretrial and trial or hearing proceedings. Company will use reasonable efforts to minimize interruptions to Employee’s schedule to the extent consistent with its interests in the matter and will reimburse Employee for reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by Employee in connection with such cooperation, upon reasonable substantiation of such expenses.

(g) Code Section 409A. To the extent any severance payments due Employee pursuant to subsection (b) hereof shall be treated as deferred compensation under Code

8

Section 409A, payment of such amount shall be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following the date of Employee’s termination, but only to the extent that such delay is necessary in order to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A with respect to payments to a Specified Employee, as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(i) upon Separation from Service, as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(h).

(a) Company Information: Company proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets or know-how, including but not limited to: research, processes, pricing strategies, communication strategies, sales strategies, sales literature, sales contracts, product plans, products, inventions, methods, services, computer codes or instructions, software and software documentation, equipment, costs, customer lists, business studies, business procedures, finances and other business information disclosed to Employee by Company, either directly or indirectly in writing, orally or by drawings or observation of parts or equipment and such other documentation and information as is necessary in the conduct of the business of Company; and

(b) Third Party Information: Confidential or proprietary information received by Company from third parties.

11.2. Company’s failure to mark any of the Confidential Information as confidential or proprietary will not affect its status as Confidential Information.

11.3. Employee agrees that the terms, conditions and subject matter of this Agreement are considered Confidential Information, except that Employee may disclose the terms, conditions and subject matter of this Agreement to Employee’s attorneys, accountants or financial advisors, and spouse or domestic partner.

11.4. Confidential Information does not include information that has ceased to be confidential by reason of any of the following: (i) was in Employee’s possession prior to the date of this Agreement, provided that such information is not known by Employee to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of secrecy to, Company, or another party; (ii) is generally available to the public and became generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in violation of this Agreement; (iii) became available to Employee on a non-confidential basis from a third party, provided that such third party is not known by Employee to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of secrecy to, Company, or another party or is otherwise prohibited from providing such information to Employee by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation; or (iv) Employee is required to disclose pursuant to applicable law or regulation (as to which information, Employee will provide Company with prior

9

notice of such requirement and, if practicable, an opportunity to obtain an appropriate protective order).

11.5. Employee shall not, either during or after the termination of Employee’s employment with Company, communicate or disclose to any third party the substance or content of any Confidential Information, or use such Confidential Information for any purpose other than the performance of Employee’s obligations hereunder. Employee acknowledges and agrees that any Confidential Information obtained by Employee during the performance of Employee’s employment concerning the business or affairs of Company, or any subsidiary, affiliate, or joint venture of Company, is the property of Company, or such subsidiary, affiliate, or joint venture of Company, as the case may be.

11.6. Employee agrees to return all Confidential Information, including all copies and versions of such Confidential Information (including but not limited to information maintained on paper, disk, CD-ROM, network server, or any other retention device whatsoever) and other property of Company, to Company immediately upon Employee’s separation from Company (regardless of the reason for the separation).

11.7. The terms of this Section 11 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other contractual, statutory, or common law obligations that Employee may have relating to the protection of Company’s Confidential Information or its property. The terms of this Section 11 shall survive for two (2) years following Employee’s separation from employment with Company.

11.8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing set forth in this Agreement will prohibit Employee from filing a charge, communicating or participating in an investigation with, or providing documents or information to, a federal or state government agency, including but not limited to the EEOC, NLRB, OSHA, or the SEC. The nondisclosure provisions in this Agreement do not prohibit Employee from initiating communications directly with, or responding to any inquiry from, or providing testimony before, any self-regulatory organization or state or federal regulatory authority, regarding Company, Employee’s employment, this Agreement or its underlying facts or circumstances. Any cooperation provision in this Agreement does not require Employee to contact Company regarding the subject matter of any such communications before engaging in such communications. This Agreement will not limit Employee’s right to receive an incentive award authorized under federal statute or regulation for information provided to the SEC or other federal or state regulatory or law enforcement agencies, if applicable.

12. Noncompetition and Non-solicitation; Survival.

12.1. Employee acknowledges that Employee’s services are of special and unique value to Company. Employee further acknowledges that, by reason of Employee’s employment, Employee will have access to and may acquire considerable knowledge of proprietary or confidential information concerning Company’s business, operations, sales goals, marketing plans, business strategies, clients, potential clients, and suppliers, which information, if known by or disclosed to Company’s competitors

10

or clients, would place Company at a competitive disadvantage and cause harm to Company.

12.2. As a condition of employment, Employee agrees to be bound by a separate Noncompetition Agreement, which shall be executed contemporaneously herewith and attached to this Agreement as Schedule I. Additionally, for a period of one (1) year immediately following the termination of Employee’s employment with Company (“Restrictive Period”):

(a) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, divert, or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert, or take away, the business or patronage of any client, potential client, or account of Company that was a client, potential client, or account of Company while Employee was employed by Company.

(b) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any employee of Company, or any of Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates, to leave the employ of Company, or any of Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates.

(c) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, employ or attempt to employ any person who is an employee of Company, or any of Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates.

(d) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, or third party having a business relationship with Company, or any of Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates, to cease doing business with, or materially alter its relationship with, Company, or any of Company’s subsidiaries and affiliates.

12.3. Employee acknowledges and agrees that every effort has been made to limit the Restrictive Period and the restrictions placed upon Employee to those that are reasonable and necessary to protect Company’s legitimate interests.

12.4. If any restriction set forth in this Section 12 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, it is hereby agreed that this Section 12 shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable.

12.5. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly agreed that the rights and obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 12, and any other right or obligation of the parties set forth in this Agreement that, by its express terms or nature and context is intended to survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, will survive any such termination or expiration.

13. Equitable Relief and Legal Action.

13.1. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee’s breach of Section 11 or Section 12 of this Agreement will cause Company substantial and irreparable harm, and therefore, in the event of any such breach, in addition to such other remedies

11

that may be available to Company, Company shall be entitled to equitable relief, including specific performance and injunctive relief.

13.2. In the event that legal action is commenced to enforce this Agreement and Company is the prevailing party, Employee acknowledges and agrees that Company shall be entitled to an award of costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, plus interest.

14. Ownership of Intellectual Property.

14.1. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Intellectual Property” shall mean all trade secrets, ideas, inventions, designs, developments, devices, methods and processes (whether or not patented or patentable, reduced to practice) and all patents and patent applications related thereto, all copyrights, copyrightable works and mask works and all registrations and applications for registration related thereto, all confidential information, and all other proprietary rights contributed to, or conceived or created by, Employee or anyone acting on Employee’s behalf (whether alone or jointly with others) at any time during the course of Employee’s employment that (i) relate to the business or to actual or anticipated research or development for Company; (ii) result from any services that Employee or anyone acting on Employee’s behalf performs for Company; or (iii) are created using the equipment, supplies, or facilities of Company.

14.2. All Intellectual Property is, shall be and shall remain the exclusive property of Company. Employee hereby assigns to Company all right, title and interest, if any, in and to the Intellectual Property; provided, however, that, when applicable, Company shall own the copyrights in all copyrightable works included in the Intellectual Property pursuant to the “work-made-for-hire” doctrine (rather than by assignment), as such term is defined in the Copyright Act of 1976. All Intellectual Property shall be owned by Company irrespective of any copyright notices or confidentiality legends to the contrary that may be placed on such works by Employee or by others. Employee shall ensure that all copyright notices and confidentiality legends on all work product authored by Employee or anyone acting on Employee’s behalf shall conform to Company’s practices and shall specify Company as the owner of the work.

15. Legal Right and Conflict of Interest.

15.1. Employee covenants and warrants that Employee has the unlimited legal right to enter into this Agreement and to perform in accordance with its terms without violating the rights of others or any applicable law, and that Employee has not and shall not become a party to any other agreement of any kind and shall not perform any work or service on behalf of any individual, business, corporation, or organization that would create a conflict of interest in the performance of Employee’s obligations under this Agreement.

15.2. Employee agrees to conduct Employee’s personal affairs in a manner that does not conflict with Company’s interests. Employee agrees not to enter into any transaction, acquire any interest, or take any action that is contrary to Company’s

12

interests or incompatible with Employee’s duty of loyalty to Company and Employee’s obligations under this Agreement.

15.3. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly (whether as a director, officer, partner, employee, agent, or stockholder of another company), compete with Company, or furnish any service to Company or its customers, as an independent contractor, while employed by Company. Employee further agrees that Employee will not use Company’s name to further Employee’s personal interests.

16. Force Majeure. Company shall have no liability under this Agreement if performance by Company of its obligations hereunder shall be prevented, interfered with, interrupted or omitted because of any act of God, act of terrorism, failure of facilities, labor dispute, or government or court action, or any other cause beyond the control of Company.

17. Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed received if and when either hand delivered and a signed receipt is given thereof, delivered by electronic delivery (email, Docusign or facsimile), overnight courier (e.g., FedEx),or delivered by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed as follows, or at such other address as any party hereto shall notify the other of in writing:
