7.    Taxes. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments required to be made by the Company hereunder to the Executive or the Executive’s estate or beneficiaries shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may reasonably determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. In lieu of withholding such amounts, in whole or in part, the Company may, in its sole discretion, accept other provisions for payment of taxes and withholding as required by law, provided it is satisfied that all requirements of law affecting its responsibilities to withhold have been satisfied.

8.    Section 409A.

(a)     All payments and benefits to which the Executive could become entitled under this Agreement are intended either to be excluded from the requirements of Section 409A of the United States Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) or to comply with Section 409A. To the extent that the provisions of this Agreement are subject to Section 409A, they shall be construed and interpreted to comply with Section 409A and any payments pursuant to such provisions will be made within the time prescribed by Section 409A. Each payment of compensation under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment of compensation for purposes of Section 409A.

(b)    Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Executive’s separation from service, the Company determines that the Executive is a “specified employee,” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes entitled to under this Agreement on account of such separation from service would be considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, such payment or benefit shall be paid or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) six (6) months and one day after such separation from service and (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this provision (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a

12

single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or provided to the Executive in a lump-sum with interest at the prime rate as published by The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the Delay Period, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

9.    Assignment. The Company shall have the right to assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any Person or entity with or into which the Company may hereafter merge or consolidate or to which the Company may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, and in any such case said Person or entity shall by operation of law or expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Company hereunder as fully as if it had been originally made a party hereto. The Company may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations hereunder. The Executive may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder.

10.    Indemnification. The Executive will be entitled to enter into an indemnity agreement with the Company in substantially the same form as the indemnification agreement entered into by similarly situated executives.

11.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the federal law and to the extent federal law is not applicable, laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed and to be wholly performed within the State. Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in the Southern District for the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles, for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and each party agrees not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in such courts. Each party further agrees that any service of process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to its address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought against it in any such court. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such courts, and irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

12.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and, upon its effectiveness, shall supersede the Prior Agreement and all other prior agreements, understandings and arrangements, both oral and written, between the Executive and the Company (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such subject matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu or limitation of, any other restrictive covenant or similar obligations the Executive may have pursuant to any other agreement with the Company or its Affiliates, including in the Executive’s capacity as a former unitholder of the Company’s subsidiary, which shall continue in full force and effect. This Agreement may not be modified in any way unless by a written instrument signed by both an authorized representative of the Company and the Executive.

13

13.    Survival. The respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, including without limitation, the Company’s obligations under Section 4 and the Executive’s obligations under Section 5 above, shall survive the expiration of the Term, solely to the extent necessary to preserve such rights and obligations that should survive expiration of the Term.

14.    Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered, sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested or sent by nationally recognized overnight delivery service addressed as set forth herein. Notices personally delivered or sent by overnight courier shall be deemed given on the date of delivery and notices mailed in accordance with the foregoing shall be deemed given upon the earlier of receipt by the addressee, as evidenced by the return receipt thereof, or three days after deposit in the U.S. mail. Notice shall be sent (i) if to the Company, addressed to the Company’s principal place of business to the attention of the Chief Executive Officer, and (ii) if to the Executive, to the Executive’s address as reflected on the payroll records of the Company, or to such other address as either party shall request by notice to the other in accordance with this provision.

15.    Benefits; Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be for the benefit of and binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and, where permitted and applicable, assigns, including, without limitation, any successor to the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of membership interests, sale of assets or otherwise.

16.    Right to Consult with Counsel; No Drafting Party. The Executive acknowledges having read and considered all of the provisions of this Agreement carefully, and having had the opportunity to consult with counsel of the Executive’s own choosing, and, given this, the Executive agrees that the obligations created hereby are not unreasonable. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has had an opportunity to negotiate any and all of these provisions and no rule of construction shall be used that would interpret any provision in favor of or against a party on the basis of who drafted the Agreement.

17.    Severability. The invalidity of any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, provisions, sections or articles contained in this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining portions of this Agreement or any part thereof, all of which are inserted conditionally on their being valid in law, and, in the event that any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, provisions, sections or articles contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid word or words, phrase or phrases, sentence or sentences, clause or clauses, provisions or provisions, section or sections or article or articles had not been inserted. If such invalidity is caused by length of time or size of area, or both, the otherwise invalid provision will be considered to be reduced to a period or area which would cure such invalidity.

18.    Damages; Attorneys’ Fees. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent the Company or the Executive from seeking and recovering from the other damages sustained as a result of the other party’s breach of any term or provision of this Agreement to the extent such breach results from, arises out of or is otherwise in connection with the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such party. In the event that either party hereto seeks to

14

collect any damages resulting from, or the injunction of any action constituting, a breach of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, then the party found to be at fault shall pay all reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the other party in such action and any appeal thereof.

19.    Waivers. The waiver by either party hereto of a breach or violation of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation.

20.    Section Headings. The article, section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

21.    No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any person other than the Company, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

22.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and agreement.

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF GENERAL RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS

This General Release of All Claims is made as of                     , 20        (“General Release”), by and between                (“Executive”) and [New Misonix, Inc.], a [New York corporation] (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive are parties to an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement dated as of [                    ], 2019 (the “Employment Agreement”);

WHEREAS, [the Company wishes to terminate Executive’s employment with the Company without Cause // Executive has terminated the Executive’s employment with the Company for Good Reason];

WHEREAS, the execution of this General Release is a condition precedent to the payment of the severance benefits as set forth in Section 4(c) of the Employment Agreement;

WHEREAS, in consideration for Executive’s signing of this General Release, and subject to Executive’s compliance with the applicable provisions of the Employment Agreement, the Company will provide Executive with severance benefits pursuant to Section 4(c) of the Employment Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Executive and the Company intend that this General Release shall be in full satisfaction of the obligations described in this General Release owed to Executive by the Company, including those under the Employment Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the Company and Executive agree as follows:

1.    Executive, for himself or herself, Executive’s spouse, heirs, administrators, children, representatives, executors, successors, assigns, and all other persons claiming through Executive, if any (collectively, “Releasors”), does hereby release, waive, and forever discharge the Company and each of its respective agents, subsidiaries, parents, Affiliates, related organizations, employees, officers, directors, attorneys, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”) from, and does fully waive any obligations of Releasees to Releasors for, any and all liability, actions, charges, causes of action, demands, damages, or claims for relief, remuneration, sums of money, accounts or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) of    any kind whatsoever, whether known or unknown or contingent or absolute, which heretofore has been or which hereafter may be suffered or sustained, directly or indirectly, by Releasors in consequence of, arising out of, or in any way relating to: (a) Executive’s employment with the Company; (b) the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company; (c) the Employment Agreement; or (d) any events occurring on or prior to the date of this General Release. The foregoing release and discharge, waiver and covenant not to sue includes, but is not limited to, all claims and any obligations or causes of action arising from such claims, under common law including wrongful or retaliatory discharge, breach of contract (including but not limited to any claims under the Employment Agreement and any claims under any equity incentive arrangements between

Executive, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand) and any action arising in tort including libel, slander, defamation or intentional infliction of emotional distress, and claims under any federal, state or local statute including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and 1871 (42 U.S.C. § 1981), the National Labor Relations Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act or the discrimination or employment laws of any state or municipality, and/or any claims under any express or implied contract which Releasors may claim existed with Releasees. This also includes a release of any claims for wrongful discharge and all claims for alleged physical or personal injury, emotional distress relating to or arising out of Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination of that employment; and any claims under the WARN Act or any similar law, which requires, among other things, that advance notice be given of certain work force reductions. This release and waiver does not apply to: (i) any indemnification rights Executive has as a former officer or director of the Company or its Affiliates (including any claims for benefits under any directors’ and officers’ liability policy maintained by the Company or its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of such policy); (ii) any rights to the receipt of employee benefits which vested on or prior to the date of this General Release; (iii) the right to receive the severance benefits under Section 4(c) of the Employment Agreement (as applicable) (subject to the compliance of the terms thereof); (iv) the right to receive accelerated vesting under Section 3(c)(ii) of the Employment Agreement; (v) any rights or claims that may arise as a result of events occurring after the date this General Release is executed; and (vi) any rights as a holder of equity securities of the Company or any of its Affiliates (subject, in each case, to compliance with the terms thereof).

2.    Excluded from this General Release and waiver are any claims which cannot be waived by law, including but not limited to the right to participate in an investigation conducted by certain government agencies. Executive does, however, waive Executive’s right to any monetary recovery should any agency (such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) pursue any claims on Executive’s behalf. Executive represents and warrants that Executive has not filed any complaint, charge, or lawsuit against the Releasees with any government agency or any court.

3.    Executive agrees never to seek personal recovery from Releasees in any forum for any claim covered by the above waiver and release language, except that Executive may bring a claim under the ADEA to challenge this General Release. If Executive violates this General Release by suing Releasees, other than under the ADEA or as otherwise set forth in Section 1 hereof, Executive shall be liable to the Company for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other litigation costs incurred in defending against such a suit. Nothing in this General Release is intended to reflect any party’s belief that Executive’s waiver of claims under ADEA is invalid or unenforceable, it being the intent of the parties that such claims are waived.

4.    Executive agrees that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by the Company, any Releasees or Executive of any improper or unlawful conduct.

5.    Executive acknowledges and recites that:

(a)    Executive has executed this General Release knowingly and voluntarily;

(b)    Executive has read and understands this General Release in its entirety;

(c)    Executive has been advised and directed orally and in writing (and this subparagraph (c) constitutes such written direction) to seek legal counsel and any other advice Executive wishes with respect to the terms of this General Release before executing it;

(d)    Executive’s execution of this General Release has not been forced by any employee or agent of the Company, and Executive has had an opportunity to negotiate about the terms of this General Release; and

(e)    Executive has been offered 21 calendar days after receipt of this General Release to consider its terms before executing it.¹

6.    This General Release shall be governed by the internal laws (and not the choice of laws) of the State of Delaware, except for the application of pre-emptive Federal law.

7.    Executive shall have 7 days from the date Executive executes this General Release to revoke the Executive’s waiver of any ADEA claims by providing written notice of the revocation to the Company.

8.    Defined terms not defined in this General Release have the meanings given in the Employment Agreement.

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. IT CONTAINS A RELEASE OF ALL KNOWN AND UNKNOWN CLAIMS.

Date:
	Executive

¹  In the event the Company determines that the Executive’s termination constitutes “an exit incentive or other employment termination program offered to a group or class of employees” under the ADEA, the Company will provide Executive with: (1) 45 days to consider the General Release; and (2) the disclosure schedules required for an effective release under the ADEA.
