3. Termination. Executive’s employment may be terminated as follows, with the following effects:

(a) Death. Executive’s employment shall terminate immediately upon the Executive’s death, in which event the Company’s only obligations hereunder shall be to pay all compensation and expense reimbursements owing for services rendered and reasonable business expenses incurred by the Executive prior to the date of his death.

In the event the Executive is disabled from performing his assigned duties under this agreement due to illness or injury for a period in excess of forty-five (45) consecutive days or a period or periods of more than one hundred and twenty (120) days in the aggregate in any twelve month period, the Board, in its sole discretion, may terminate Executive’s employment immediately upon written notice to Executive, in which event the Company’s only obligations hereunder shall be to pay all compensation and expense reimbursements owing for services rendered and reasonable business expenses incurred by the Executive prior to the effective date of termination.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) Executive’s conviction of or plea of nolo contendere to any felony crime involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude under the laws of the United States or any state thereof; (ii) Executive’s attempted commission of, or participation in, a fraud or act of dishonesty against the Company; (iii) Executive’s intentional, material violation of any contract or agreement between the Participant and the Company or of any statutory duty owed to the Company; (iv) Executive’s unauthorized use or disclosure of the Company’s confidential information or trade secrets; or (v) Executive’s gross misconduct. In the event Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, the Company shall have no further obligations to Executive other than to pay all compensation and expense reimbursements owing for services rendered and reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive prior to the effective date of such termination.

 

2.


(d) Without Cause. The Company in its sole discretion may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause (as defined above) or prior warning immediately upon written notice from the Board to Executive, in which event, the Company shall pay to Executive all compensation and expense reimbursements owing for services rendered and reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive prior to the effective date of termination, and provided such termination is a “separation from service” as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the applicable guidance thereunder, contingent upon Executive’s delivery to the Company of an effective Release and Waiver as provided in Section 3(e) below, the Company shall also provide the following benefits to Executive: (i) severance consisting of continued payment of Executive’s base salary at the rate in effect as of the effective date of termination, less standard deductions and withholdings, for a period of twelve (12) months following the effective date of termination, subject to acceleration of such payments into a single lump-sum cash severance payment in the event a Change in Control (as defined below, provided that the Change in Control is an event described in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v)) of the Company has occurred prior to the date of termination (but not more than two years prior to such termination) or a Change in Control occurs within ninety (90) days after the date of termination of Executive’s employment, provided that any such acceleration complies with the provisions of Code Section 409A(a)(3); (ii) upon timely election by Executive complying with COBRA, payment of all premiums required to continue Executive’s medical, dental and vision insurance coverage pursuant to COBRA for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of termination; and (iii) immediately accelerate the vesting of all options to purchase the common stock of the Company granted to Executive prior to the effective date of such termination (the “Options”) such that Executive shall be deemed vested as to the same number of shares as if Executive had continued to be employed by the Company for a period of twelve (12) months following the effective date of such termination (subject to the additional accelerated vesting provided in Section 4(b) in the event Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause within 90 days prior to or within 13 months following the effective date of a Change in Control). As a condition to receiving the continuing benefits specified in this Section 3(d), during the twelve (12) month period following the Executive’s termination date, Executive shall not engage in any employment or business activity that is directly competitive with the Company’s business activities as of such termination date and Executive shall not induce any employee of the Company to leave the employ of the Company.

(e) Release and Waiver. As a condition to receiving the benefits specified in Sections 3(d) and 4(b) of this Agreement, Executive must deliver to the Company a fully effective waiver and release of claims in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release and Waiver”) within the time frame set forth therein, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days following the Executive’s termination date.

(f) Voluntary Termination by Executive. Executive may terminate his employment hereunder at any time, whether with or without cause, effective sixty (60) days after delivery of written notice of such termination to the Company, except for Executive’s Emergency Need. “Emergency Need”, as used in this Section, is defined to be the advent of illness or related health issues in Executive or his immediate family which a medical doctor would conclude poses a mortal health risk to that person. The Company shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to specify an earlier termination date than that provided by Executive

 

3.


in the written notice. Upon voluntary termination pursuant to this Section, the Company shall have no further obligations to Executive other than to pay all compensation and expense reimbursements owing for services rendered and reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive prior to effective date of termination as determined by the Company.

(g) Returning Company Documents. In the event of any termination of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall, prior to or on such termination deliver to the Company (and will not maintain possession of or deliver to anyone else) any and all devices, records, data, data bases software, software documentation, laboratory notebooks, notes, reports, proposals, lists, customer lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, materials, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any of the above aforementioned items belonging to the Company, its successors or assigns.

4. Change in Control.

(a) Option Acceleration Upon A Change in Control. Effective immediately upon the closing of a Change in Control of the Company, the vesting of fifty percent (50%) of the then unvested shares of Common Stock subject to the Options shall be accelerated in full and shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable (and, if any Options have been early exercised by Executive, the reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to such acceleration shall lapse in full, as appropriate). Thereafter, the balance of the Options’ unvested shares of Common Stock subject to such Options shall vest in six (6) equal monthly installments over the six-month period immediately following the closing of the Change in Control, except as provided in Section 4(b) below.

(b) Benefits Upon Termination. In the event that Executive’s employment by the Company is terminated without Cause (as defined above) or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason (as defined below) within ninety (90) days prior to or within thirteen (13) months following the effective date of a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Company, contingent upon Executive’s delivery to the Company of a fully effective Release and Waiver as provided in Section 3(e) and provided such termination is a “separation from service” as such term is defined in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i), the Executive shall be entitled to the benefits and payments specified in Sections 3(d)(i) and 3(d)(ii) above, and the vesting of the unvested shares of Common Stock subject to the Options shall immediately accelerate in full such that all of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Options shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable (and, if any Options have been early exercised by Executive, the reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to such acceleration shall lapse in full, as appropriate).

(c) Change in Control. “Change in Control” means the occurrence, in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, of any one or more of the following events:

(i) any Exchange Act Person (as defined below) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities other than by virtue of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change

 

4.


in Control shall not be deemed to occur (A) on account of the acquisition of securities of the Company by an investor, any affiliate thereof or any other Exchange Act Person from the Company in a transaction or series of related transactions the primary purpose of which is to obtain financing for the Company through the issuance of equity securities or (B) solely because the level of beneficial ownership held by any Exchange Act Person (the Subject Person) exceeds the designated percentage threshold of the outstanding voting securities as a result of a repurchase or other acquisition of voting securities by the Company reducing the number of shares outstanding, provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of voting securities by the Company, and after such share acquisition, the Subject Person becomes the beneficial owner of any additional voting securities that, assuming the repurchase or other acquisition had not occurred, increases the percentage of the then outstanding voting securities beneficially owned by the Subject Person over the designated percentage threshold, then a Change in Control shall be deemed to occur (for purposes of this Section 4(c), “Exchange Act Person” means any natural person, entity or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)), except that “Exchange Act Person” shall not include (A) the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, (B) any employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, (C) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities, (D) an entity beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their beneficial ownership of stock of the Company; or (E) any natural person, entity or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act) that, as of the date of this Agreement, is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities);

(ii) there is consummated a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving (directly or indirectly) the Company and, immediately after the consummation of such merger, consolidation or similar transaction, the stockholders of the Company immediately prior thereto do not beneficially own, directly or indirectly, either (A) outstanding voting securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined outstanding voting power of the surviving entity in such merger, consolidation or similar transaction or (B) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined outstanding voting power of the parent of the surviving entity in such merger, consolidation or similar transaction, in each case in substantially the same proportions relative to each other as their beneficial ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction;

(iii) the stockholders of the Company approve or the Board approves a plan of complete dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or a complete dissolution or liquidation of the Company shall otherwise occur, except for a liquidation into a parent corporation;

(iv) there is consummated a sale, lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, other than a sale, lease, license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries to an entity, more than fifty percent (50%)

 

5.


of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are beneficially owned by stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions relative to each other as their beneficial ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such sale, lease, license or other disposition; or

(v) individuals who, on the date of this Agreement, are members of the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; (provided, however, that if the appointment or election (or nomination for election) of any new Board member was approved or recommended by a majority vote of the members of the Incumbent Board then still in office, such new member shall, for purposes of the Plan, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board).

(d) Good Reason. “Good Reason” for the Executive to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s consent:

(i) a material adverse change in the nature of the Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities, as they exist on the Effective Date of this Agreement;

(ii) a material adverse change in the Executive’s reporting level requiring that the Executive report to a corporate officer or executive other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer;

(iii) the relocation of the Company’s executive offices or principal business location to a point more than sixty (60) miles from their location as of the Effective Date of this Agreement; or

(iv) a material reduction by the Company of the Executive’s base salary as initially set forth herein or as the same may be increased from time to time.

Provided however that, such termination by the Executive shall only be deemed for Good Reason pursuant to the foregoing definition if: (i) the Executive gives the Company written notice of the intent to terminate for Good Reason within thirty (30) days following the first occurrence of the condition(s) that the Executive believes constitutes Good Reason, which notice shall describe such condition(s); (ii) the Company fails to remedy such condition(s) within thirty (30) days following receipt of the written notice (the “Cure Period”); and (iii) the Executive terminates employment within thirty (30) days following the end of the Cure Period.

5. Application of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. Benefits payable under the Agreement, to the extent of payments made from the date of termination of the Executive through March 15th of the calendar year following such termination, are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations and thus payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations; to the extent such payments are made following said March 15th, they are subject to the distribution requirements of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A), including, without limitation, the requirement of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) that payment to the Executive be delayed until 6 months after separation from service if the Executive is a “specified Executive” within the meaning of the aforesaid section of the Code at the time of such separation from service.

 

6.


6. Code Section 280G. If any payment or benefit Executive would receive pursuant to a Corporate Transaction from the Company or otherwise (Payment) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Code Section 280G, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999 (the Excise Tax), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Payment are paid to Executive, which of the following two amounts would maximize Executive’s after-tax proceeds: (i) payment in full of the entire amount of the Payment (a Full Payment), or (ii) payment of only a part of the Payment so that Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a Reduced Payment), whichever amount results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. For purposes of determining whether to make a Full Payment or a Reduced Payment, the Company shall cause to be taken into account all applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes). If a Reduced Payment is made, (i) the Payment shall be paid only to the extent permitted under the Reduced Payment alternative, and Executive shall have no rights to any additional payments and/or benefits constituting the Payment, and (ii) reduction in payments and/or benefits shall occur in the following order: reduction of cash payments, cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock awards, and reduction of other benefits. In the event that acceleration of compensation from Executive’s equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be canceled in the reverse order of the date of grant unless Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation.

The independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Corporate Transaction shall make all determinations required to be made under this Section 6. If the independent registered public accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Corporate Transaction, the Company shall appoint a different nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such independent registered public accounting firm required to be made hereunder. The independent registered public accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and Executive within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which Executive’s right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by the Company or Executive) or at such other time as requested by the Company. If the independent registered public accounting firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or after the application of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish the Company and Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive.

 

7.


7. Conflict Of Interest. During the Employment Period, Executive shall devote such time and energies as appropriate to fulfill all responsibilities to the Company in the capacity set forth in Section 1. Executive shall be free to pursue business activities which do not interfere with the performance of his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, however, Executive shall not engage in any outside business activity which involves actual or potential competition with the business of the Company, except with the written consent of the Board.

8. Executive Benefit Plans. All of the Executive benefit plans referred to or contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed solely by the terms of the underlying plan documents and applicable law. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair the Company’s right to amend, modify, replace, and terminate any and all such plans in its sole discretion as provided by law. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of Executive and the Company, and is not intended to create an Executive benefit plan or to modify existing terms of existing plans.

EXHIBIT A

RELEASE AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS

In consideration of the payments and other benefits set forth in the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated December 22, 2008 (the “Employment Agreement”), to which this form is attached, I, CHRISTIAN V. KUHLEN, M.D., ESQ., hereby furnish GENOPTIX, INC. (the “Company”), with the following release and waiver (“Release and Waiver”).

In exchange for the consideration provided to me by the Employment Agreement that I am not otherwise entitled to receive, I hereby generally and completely release the Company and its directors, officers, Executives, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, parent and subsidiary entities, insurers, Affiliates, and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring prior to my signing this Release and Waiver. This general release includes, but is not limited to: (1) all claims arising out of or in any way related to my employment with the Company or the termination of that employment; (2) all claims related to my compensation or benefits from the Company, including, but not limited to, salary, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests in the Company; (3) all claims for breach of contract, wrongful termination, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (4) all tort claims, including, but not limited to, claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in violation of public policy; and (5) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including, but not limited to, claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys’ fees, or other claims arising under the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (as amended) (“ADEA”), and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (as amended).

I also acknowledge that I have read and understand Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.” I hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to any claims I may have against the Company.

I acknowledge that, among other rights, I am waiving and releasing any rights I may have under ADEA, that this Release and Waiver is knowing and voluntary, and that the consideration given for this Release and Waiver is in addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled as an executive of the Company. I further acknowledge that I have been advised, as required by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, that: (a) the release and waiver granted herein does not relate to claims under the ADEA which may arise after this Release and Waiver is executed; (b) I should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release and Waiver; (c) I have twenty-one (21) days from the date of termination of my employment with the Company in which to consider this Release and

 

10.


Waiver (although I may choose voluntarily to execute this Release and Waiver earlier); (d) I have seven (7) days following the execution of this Release and Waiver to revoke my consent to this Release and Waiver; and (e) this Release and Waiver shall not be effective until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired unexercised and no benefits will be paid unless and until this Release and Waiver has become effective. In the event that this Release and Waiver is requested in connection with an exit incentive or other employment termination program offered to a group or class of employees, I have forty-five (45) days to consider this Release and Waiver and I shall be provided with the information required by 29 U.S.C. Section 626 (f)(1)(H).

This Release and Waiver constitutes the complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between the Company and me with regard to the subject matter hereof. I am not relying on any promise or representation by the Company that is not expressly stated herein. This Release and Waiver may only be modified by a writing signed by both me and the a duly authorized member of the Board of Directors of the Company.
