1.The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) desires to provide for the payment of certain benefits in connection with certain terminations of Executive’s employment with the Company that occur in connection with a Change in Control.

2.Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 6 below.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law.

2.Rights Upon Termination. Except as expressly provided in Section 3, upon the termination of Executive’s employment, Executive shall only be entitled to: (i) all earned but unpaid salary, all accrued but unpaid vacation and all other earned but unpaid compensation or wages, (ii) any unreimbursed business expenses incurred by Executive on or before the termination date and which are reimbursable under the Company’s business expense reimbursement policies, which will be paid to

Executive promptly following Executive’s submission of any required receipts and other documentation to the Company in accordance with the Company’s business expense reimbursement policies, provided such receipts and documents are received by the Company within forty-five (45) days after the date of Executive’s termination, and (iii) such other compensation or benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements or as otherwise required by law (collectively, the “Accrued Benefits”).

3.Severance Benefits.

(a)Termination without Cause or for Good Reason during Change in Control Period. If, during the Change in Control Period, (i) the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company) terminates Executive’s employment without Cause or (ii) Executive terminates his employment with the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company) for Good Reason, then, subject to Section 4 below, Executive will receive the following severance benefits from the Company:

(i)Base Salary Severance Payment. Executive will receive a base salary severance payment in an amount equal to twelve (12) months of Executive’s then current base salary as in effect immediately prior to the date of such termination (provided, if Executive resigns as a result of Section 6(g)(ii), the base salary used to calculate the base salary severance payment due shall be the base salary as in effect immediately prior to the reduction triggering Section 6(g)(ii)). The base salary severance payment shall be paid to Executive in a single lump-sum within thirty (30) days following the Release Deadline.

7

(ii)Benefits Severance Payment. Executive will receive a benefits severance payment in an amount equal to twelve (12) months’ of the monthly premiums that would be due for continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended

(“COBRA”) if Executive were to elect COBRA continuation coverage for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (based on the coverage levels in effect immediately prior to Executive’s termination or resignation and based on the premium amount that would be due for the first month of COBRA coverage if Executive were to elect COBRA continuation coverage). The benefits severance payment shall be paid to Executive in a single lump-sum within thirty (30) days following the Release Deadline and will be made, subject to all applicable taxes and withholding for required deductions, and regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage.

(iii)Equity Awards. Executive shall vest in 100% of any then outstanding and unvested Equity Awards that are subject to time-based vesting. The Equity Awards will otherwise remain subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Equity Award agreement. Notwithstanding anything stated herein or elsewhere to the contrary, if the successor to the Company or any affiliate of such successor does not agree to assume, substitute or otherwise continue any then outstanding Equity Awards at the time of a Change in Control, then 100% of the then-unvested shares subject to the Equity Awards shall fully vest and, if applicable, become exercisable, as of immediately prior to, and contingent upon, the consummation of such Change in Control, regardless of whether Executive’s employment with the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company) continues or terminates unless such termination is due to Executive’s resignation without Good Reason or by the Company for Cause.

(b)Resignation; Termination for Cause. If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated (i) by Executive (other than for Good Reason during the Change in Control Period), (ii) without Cause by the Company outside the Change in Control Period, or (iii) for Cause by the Company at any time, then Executive will not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits pursuant to this Agreement except for the Accrued Benefits.

(c)Disability; Death. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment as a result of Executive’s Disability where Executive is no longer willing or able to continue performing

services for the Company, or Executive’s employment terminates due to his death, then Executive will not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits pursuant to this Agreement except for the Accrued Benefits.

(d)Breach. The parties acknowledge that Executive’s entitlement to the severance payments and benefits contained in this Section 3 are of the essence and an integral part of this Agreement, and that, without such severance provisions, the parties would not enter into this Agreement. Therefore, if the Company, or any successor to the Company, breaches the terms of this Section 3 by failing or refusing pay or provide any of the severance payments or benefits owed to Executive in the amounts and/or according to the time periods set forth herein, Executive shall be entitled to two times (2x) the amount of severance payments and benefits that Executive would otherwise be entitled to receive, payable and/or provided according to the same terms set forth herein. The parties acknowledge and agree that any additional severance payments and benefits paid pursuant to this Section 3(d) constitute liquidated damages that would be incurred by Executive and that these additional severance payments and benefits are not a penalty, rather they are a reasonable amount intended as liquidated damages that will compensate Executive in the circumstances in which they are payable for the efforts and resources expended, and opportunities foregone, while negotiating and/or enforcing this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions

8

contemplated by this Agreement, which amounts would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

4.Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

(a)Release of Claims Agreement. The receipt of any severance or other benefits pursuant to Section 3 will be subject to Executive signing and not revoking a general release of all claims in a form provided by the Company, and such release becoming effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination (such deadline, the “Release Deadline”). No severance or other benefits will be paid or provided pursuant to this Agreement until the release becomes effective and irrevocable. If the release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit all rights to severance payments and benefits under this Agreement.

(b)Confidential Information Agreement and Other Requirements. Executive’s receipt of any payments or benefits under Section 3 will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with the terms of the Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement, which Executive acknowledges and agrees shall remain in full force and effect.

(c)Code Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the regulations and other guidance there under and any state law of similar effect (collectively “Section 409A”), each payment that is paid pursuant to this Agreement is hereby designated as a separate payment. Further, (i) no severance 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 benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A, will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has had a

“separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, (ii) no severance or benefits to be paid or provided to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that are intended to be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) will be paid or otherwise provided

until Executive has had an “involuntary separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and (iii) in the case of (i) and (ii), any reference in this Agreement to “termination” or “termination of employment” or any similar term shall be construed to mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. The parties intend that all payments and benefits provided or to be provided under this Agreement comply with, or are exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A so that none

of the payments or benefits will be subject to the adverse tax penalties imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply or be so exempt. 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 under Section 409A before payments or benefits are provided to

Executive. Any severance payments or benefits made in connection with Executive’s termination under this Agreement and provided on or before the 15th day of the 3rd month following the end of Executive’s first tax year in which Executive’s termination occurs or, if later, the 15th day of the 3rd month following the end of the Company’s first tax year in which Executive’s termination occurs, shall be exempt from Section 409A to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and any additional payments or benefits provided in connection with Executive’s termination under this Agreement shall be exempt from Section 409A to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (to the extent it is exempt pursuant to such section it will in any event be provided no later than the last day of Executive’s 2nd taxable year following the taxable year in which Executive’s termination occurs). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the payments or

benefits provided in connection with Executive’s termination do not qualify for any reason to be exempt

9

from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or any other applicable exemption and Executive is, at the time of his termination, a “specified employee,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i), each such payment or benefit will not be provided until the first regularly scheduled payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following Executive’s termination and, on such date (or, if

earlier, another date that occurs as soon as practicable after Executive’s death), Executive will receive all payments and benefits that would have been provided during such period in a single lump sum, if applicable. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that any reimbursements or in-kind benefits under this Agreement or otherwise constitute non-exempt

“nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, then any such reimbursements and/or benefits (i) shall be made or provided promptly but no later than December 31st of the calendar year following the year in which the expense was incurred by Executive, (ii) shall not in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other calendar year, and (iii) shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

5.Limitation on Payments. In the event that the severance benefits provided for in this Agreement and/or other payments and benefits otherwise provided to Executive (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this Section 5, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then, at the election of Executive, Executive’s severance benefits under Section 3, and/or the other payments and benefits otherwise provided to Executive, will be either:

(a)delivered in full, or

(b)delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such severance benefits being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code,

whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, results in the receipt by Executive on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of severance benefits and other payments and benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such severance benefits and other payments and benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 5 will be made in writing by the Company’s outside legal counsel or

independent public accountants or other firm selected by the Company (the “Firm”), whose determination will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 5, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company will bear all costs the Firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 5. Any reduction made pursuant to this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the following order of priority: (i) stock options whose

exercise price exceeds the fair market value of the optioned stock (“Underwater Options”) (ii) Full Credit Payments (as defined below) that are payable in cash, (iii) non-cash Full Credit Payments that are taxable,

(iv) non-cash Full Credit Payments that are not taxable (v) Partial Credit Payments (as defined below) and

(vi) non-cash employee welfare benefits. In each case, reductions shall be made in reverse chronological order such that the payment or benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the excise tax will be the first payment or benefit to be reduced (with reductions made pro-rata

10

in the event payments or benefits are owed at the same time). “Full Credit Payment” means a payment, distribution or benefit, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, that if reduced in value by one dollar reduces the amount of the parachute payment (as defined in Section 280G of the Code) by one dollar, determined as if such payment, distribution or benefit had been paid or distributed on the date of the event triggering the excise tax. “Partial Credit Payment” means any payment, distribution or benefit that is not a Full Credit Payment.

In no event shall Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of payment reductions.

(a)Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means:
