You may not make any public statement or publications relating to the Confidential Information without first seeking and gaining permission from the Company. You understand that nothing in this Agreement shall in any way limit or prohibit you from engaging in any protected activity. For purposes of this Agreement, “protected activity” means filing a charge or complaint with, reporting possible violations of law to, otherwise communicating or cooperating with or participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any federal, state or local government agency, self-regulatory organization, or commission, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the National Labor Relations Board (“government agencies”), or taking other actions protected under federal or state whistle-blower law (including receiving a whistle-blower award).

You further understand that “protected activity” does not include the disclosure of any Company attorney-client privileged communications. 13.e.

An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. An individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret


 
to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. 13.f. This Agreement and the AGA Agreement are not intended to limit or restrict and shall not be interpreted in any manner that limits or restricts, you from exercising any legally protected whistleblower rights (including pursuant to Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Section 21F”)) or receiving an award for information provided to any government agency under any legally protected whistleblower rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in or about this Agreement prohibits you from: (i) filings and, as provided for under Section 21F, maintaining the confidentiality of a claim with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”); (ii) providing Confidential Information to the SEC, or providing the SEC with information that would otherwise violate this Section 13, to the extent permitted by Section 21F; (iii) cooperating, participating or assisting in an SEC investigation or proceeding without notifying any Group Company; or (iv) receiving a monetary award as set forth in Section 21F. 14. SECTION 409A 14.a. This Agreement and the AGA Agreement are intended to satisfy, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the U.S. Internal revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) and shall be interpreted accordingly. For purposes of Section 409A, any instalment payments provided under this Agreement, or the AGA Agreement shall each be treated as a separate payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the AGA Agreement, if any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement or the AGA Agreement constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A, and if such amount is payable as a result of your “separation from service” at such time as you are a “specified employee” (within the meaning of those terms as defined in Section 409A), then no payment shall be made, except as permitted under Section 409A, prior to the first business day after the date that is six months after your separation from service. You shall be responsible for payment of any and all taxes owed in connection with the consideration provided under this Agreement or the AGA Agreement. To the extent required to avoid any accelerated taxation or penalties under Section 409A, amounts reimbursable to you under this Agreement or the AGA Agreement shall be paid on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursements (and in-kind benefits provided) during any one year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year. 14.b. Neither you nor any of your creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Agreement, the AGA Agreement or under any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement of or with the Company or any Group Company (this Agreement, the AGA Agreement and such other plans, policies, arrangements and agreements, the


 
“Company Plans”) to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. 14.c. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the AGA Agreement or any other Company Plan to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, the Company and the Group Companies reserve the right to make amendments to any Company Plan as the Company or Group Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any case, you are solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on you or for your account in connection with any Company Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any Group Company shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. 15. GENERAL 15.a. Except as to the AGA Agreement, this Agreement supersedes all previous contracts or agreements with the Company and/or any other Group Companies. 15.b. This document contains the entire agreement between the parties, and neither shall be bound by any undertaking, representation or warranty not recorded herein. 15.c. No waiver by a party of any right specified herein, or failure by a party to enforce any rights it may have at law or equity, shall preclude a party from exercising any rights it may have in the future to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 15.d. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement as at the date of signature of the party last signing one of the counterparts. 15.e. This Agreement shall, for all purposes, be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict of laws of choice of law provisions, and the parties irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located with the State of Colorado for all matters arising under this Agreement. If you would like clarity on any of these terms and conditions, please contact the Human Resources Department for further details. Please acknowledge receipt of this Agreement and acceptance of the conditions contained herein by signing this copy with the attached annexures and returning it to the Human Resources Department.
