If Executive’s employment with the Company (or any parent or subsidiary or successor of the Company) is terminated voluntarily by Executive without Good Reason, for Cause by the Company or due to Executive’s death or Disability, then Executive will be entitled to receive the Accrued Benefits and no further compensation or benefits will be paid to Executive under this Agreement.

(c)Exclusive Remedy. In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company (or any parent or subsidiary or successor of the Company), the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 7 below are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which Executive or the Company may otherwise be entitled in connection with the termination of Executive’s employment under any employee compensation or benefit plan which provides benefits severance or continuation pay.

7.Termination for other than Cause, Death or Disability or Resignation for Good Reason within 24 months following a Change in Control. If the Company (or any parent or subsidiary or successor of the Company) terminates Executive’s employment with the Company other than for Cause (as defined below) and other than due to Executive’s death or Disability (as defined below), or Executive resigns with Good Reason (as defined below), in either case, within 24 months following a Change of Control (as defined below) then, subject to Section 8 and in lieu of the payments set forth in Section 6 above, Executive will be entitled to (i) receive a severance payment equal to one times (1x) the sum of (A) Executive’s annual Base Salary, as then in effect, and (B) Executive’s target annual bonus for the year in which such termination of employment occurs, (ii) continued group health coverage in effect on the date of her termination of employment for a period of 12 months under COBRA as further described below; and (iv) accelerated vesting as to one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s then outstanding and unvested equity and equity-based awards (with any performance-vesting awards vesting at target levels).

In relation to prong (ii) of this Section 7, Executive and where applicable, Executive’s spouse and eligible dependents, will continue to be eligible to receive reimbursement for COBRA coverage premiums under the Company’s medical plans in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan documents. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the such premiums without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the U.S. Public Health Service Act), regardless of whether Executive or Executive’s dependents elect or are eligible for COBRA coverage, the Company instead shall pay to Executive, on the first day of each calendar month following the termination date, a cash payment equal to the applicable premium plus estimated income tax attributable to such additional income. In

addition to the amounts described above, Executive will be entitled to receive the Accrued Benefits.

(a)Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. The receipt of any severance pursuant to Sections 6 or 7 will be subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and general release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Release”) and provided that such Release becomes effective and irrevocable no later than sixty (60) days following the termination date (such deadline, the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any rights to severance or benefits under this Agreement. In no event will severance payments or benefits be paid or provided until the Release becomes effective and irrevocable. Subject to Section 8(b), any cash severance pay to which Executive is entitled pursuant to Section 6 or 7 (other than the Accrued Obligations) will be paid, or will begin to be paid, on the first normal payroll date of the Company following the Release Deadline, with such payment to include all amounts that would have been paid prior to such date but for this Section 8(a).

(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other payments or benefits, would be considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has incurred a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s termination (other than due to death), then the Deferred Payments that are payable within the first six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Executive dies following Executive’s separation from service, but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

(iii)Any amounts paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section l.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.

(iv)Any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section l.409A-l(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit (as defined below) will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.

(v)All payments under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments and benefits provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. 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 prior to actual payment to Executive under Section 409A. In no event will the Company, any of its subsidiaries or affiliates be liable to Executive by reason of any acceleration of income or any additional tax (including any interest and penalties) asserted with respect to the failure of any payments or benefits provided under this Agreement to satisfy the applicable requirements of Section 409A.

(c)Confidential Information Agreement. Executive’s continuing receipt of any payments or benefits under Section 6 or 7 will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with the terms of the Confidential Information Agreement (as defined in Section 11). In the event Executive breaches the provisions of the Confidential Information Agreement and is unable to cure such breach, if curable, within thirty (30) days following receipt from the Company of written notice of such breach, then all payments and benefits to which Executive may otherwise be entitled pursuant to Sections 6 or 7 will immediately cease.

(d)No Duty to Mitigate. Executive will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment contemplated by this Agreement, nor will any earnings that Executive may receive from any other source reduce any such payment.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in order for an event to qualify as “Cause”, the Company

must not terminate Executive’s employment with the Company without first providing Executive with written notice of the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for “Cause”.

(b)Change of Control. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” is defined as:

(i)the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation or stock transfer, but excluding any such transaction effected primarily for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company), unless the Company’s stockholders of record immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions hold, immediately after such transaction or series of related transactions, at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity (provided that the sale by the Company of its securities for the primary purpose of raising additional funds shall not constitute a Change of Control hereunder); or

(ii)a sale, license or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets, intellectual property or technology of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this definition, a transaction will not be deemed a Change of Control unless the transaction qualifies as a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(c)Code. For purposes of this Agreement, “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(d)Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means that Executive has been unable to perform Executive’s Company duties as the result of Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness for at least twenty-six (26) weeks after the commencement of such incapacity or for one-hundred and eighty (180) days in any consecutive twelve (12) month period, which incapacity is determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to Executive or Executive’s legal representative (such agreement as to acceptability not to be unreasonably withheld).

(e)Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means Executive’s resignation within thirty (30) days following the expiration of any Company cure period (described below) following the occurrence of one or more of the following, without Executive’s consent:

(i)a material diminution of Executive’s authority, duties, or responsibilities with the Company in effect immediately prior to such assignment;

(iii)any successor to the Company (whether pursuant to any Change in Control or otherwise) does not assume this Agreement; or

(iv)any reduction in Executive’s base salary in effect immediately prior to such termination, unless the Company also similarly reduces the base salaries of all other similarly situated employees of the Company.

Executive will not resign for Good Reason without first providing the Company with written notice of the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for “Good Reason” within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of the grounds for “Good Reason” and a cure period of thirty (30) days following the date of such notice.

(f)Section 409A Limit. For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A Limit” will mean two (2) times the lesser of: (i) Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to Executive during Executive’s taxable year preceding Executive’s taxable year of her separation from service as determined under Treasury Regulation Section l.409Al (b)(9)(iii)(A)(1) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 40l(a)(l 7) of the Internal Revenue Code for the year in which Executive’s separation from service occurred.

(a)If Executive receives, is provided or may receive or be provided any payment or benefit that constitutes a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), and the net after-tax amount of any such parachute payment is less than the net after-tax amount if the aggregate payments and benefits to be made to Executive were three times Executive’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code), less $1.00, then the aggregate of the amounts constituting the parachute payments shall be reduced to an amount equal to three times Executive’s base amount, less $1.00. For purposes of determining the “net after-tax amount,” the Company will cause to be taken into account all applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the excise taxes (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 reduction pursuant to this Section 10 is to occur, (x) Executive will have no rights to any additional payments and/or benefits that are being reduced, and (y) reduction in payments and/or benefits will occur in the following order: (i) reduction of cash payments, if any, which shall occur in reverse chronological order such that the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced; (ii) cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards other than stock options, if any; (iii) cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock options, if any; and (iv) reduction of other payments or benefits, if any, paid or provided to Executive, which shall occur in reverse chronological order such that the payment or benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first benefit to be reduced. In the event that acceleration of vesting of equity awards or stock options is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting will be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant. If two or more equity awards or stock options are granted on the same date, each award or stock option will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. Notwithstanding, any excise tax imposed will be solely the responsibility of Executive. In no event shall Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of her payment reductions.

(b)Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 10 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants selected by the Company, the Company’s legal counsel or such other person or entity to which the Parties mutually agree (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 10, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 2800 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 10. The Company will bear all costs the Firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 10.

For this purpose, “successor” means any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all the assets or business of the Company.
