The foregoing limitations will not be construed as prohibiting Executive from serving on civic, charitable or other boards or committees, managing personal or family investments and personal passive investments in securities or from engaging in other activities from time to time, in each case, that will not interfere in any material respect with the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement. Executive will faithfully adhere to, execute and fulfill in all material respects all policies established by the Company in writing and made available to Executive, consistent with the other terms of this Agreement.

reasonable detail by Executive upon submission of any request for reimbursement in a format consistent with the Company’s expense reporting policy and will be reimbursed promptly.

(c)Annual Incentive Bonus. Subject to the subsections set forth herein, Executive will be eligible to receive an annual cash incentive bonus (the “Incentive Bonus”). The Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) will establish the applicable performance goals required to be met by the Company for a fiscal year in order for Executive to be eligible for an Incentive Bonus, payable no later than March 15 of the following fiscal year. If the Company achieves the applicable performance goals for any such fiscal year, the Compensation Committee will determine Executive’s actual Incentive Bonus amount in the Compensation Committee’s sole and absolute discretion based on its evaluation of Executive’s performance. Executive’s target Incentive Bonus, assuming Executive fully and satisfactorily meets all expectations and obligations as Chief Financial Officer, as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole and absolute discretion, shall be 45% of Executive’s Base Salary.

(i)If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason whatsoever prior to December 31 of any fiscal year, whether by the Company with or without Cause (as defined below) or by Executive with or without Good Reason (as defined below), Executive will not be entitled to receive an Incentive Bonus payment for such fiscal year.

(ii)If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause prior to the date on which any Incentive Bonus for the prior fiscal year to which Executive may be entitled is to be paid, Executive will not be entitled to receive, and shall forfeit all right, interest and entitlement to, any such Incentive Bonus payment for such fiscal year.

(iii)If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause, or by Executive with or without Good Reason, after December 31 of any fiscal year but prior to the date on which any Incentive Bonus for the prior fiscal year to which Executive may be entitled is to be paid, Executive shall remain eligible to receive such Incentive Bonus, if any, for such prior fiscal year, subject to the sole and absolute discretion of the Compensation Committee based on its evaluation of Executive’s performance.

(iv)“Cause” means, as determined by the Board, in its discretion exercised in good faith, Executive’s dismissal as a result of: (1) any material breach by Executive of any agreement between Executive and the Company; (2) the conviction of, indictment for or plea of nolo contendere by Executive to a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; or (3) any material misconduct or willful and deliberate nonperformance (other than by reason of Executive’s death or Disability) by Executive of Executive’s duties to the Company.

(v)“Good Reason” means the occurrence, without Executive’s express written consent, which circumstances are not remedied by the Company within thirty (30) days of its receipt of a written notice from Executive describing the applicable circumstances (which notice must be provided by Executive within ninety (90) days of Executive’s knowledge of the applicable circumstances), of one or more of the following: (1) any material, adverse change in Executive’s duties, responsibilities, authority, title or reporting structure; (2) a material reduction in Executive’s base salary or bonus opportunity; or (3) a geographical relocation of Executive’s principal office location by more than fifty (50) miles.

(e)No Other Compensation or Benefits; Payment.

9.Section 409A of the Code.

(a)General Compliance. All payments and benefits under this Agreement are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and all applicable guidance and regulations thereunder, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms this Agreement will be interpreted and operated to be exempt from or so comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. In no event will the Company reimburse Executive for any taxes, penalties or interest imposed by Section 409A of the Code resulting from any amount paid under the Agreement or otherwise. The Company and Executive will work together in good faith to consider either amendments to this Agreement or revisions to the Agreement with respect to the payment of any benefits to Executive under this Agreement, which are necessary or appropriate to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to the actual payment to Executive under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive, to take such reasonable actions and make any amendments to this Agreement as it deems necessary, advisable or desirable to comply with Section 409A of the Code or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A of the Code or imposition of any additional tax prior to the actual payment of any benefits under this Agreement.

(b)Reimbursements. To the extent any reimbursement of costs and expenses provided for under this Agreement constitutes taxable income to Executive for federal income tax purposes, such reimbursements will be made as soon as practicable after Executive provides proper documentation supporting reimbursement but in no event later than December 31 of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the expenses to be reimbursed are incurred. With regard to any provision in this Agreement that provides for reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A of the Code, (a) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (b) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year will not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(c)Specified Employee. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any payment or benefit provided to Executive in connection with Executive’s termination of employment is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(b)(i) of the Code, then such payment or benefit will not be paid until the first payroll date to occur following the six-month anniversary of the Termination Date or, if earlier, on Executive’s death (the “Specified Employee Payment Date”). The aggregate of any payments that would otherwise have been paid before the Specified Employee Payment Date will be paid to Executive in a lump sum on the Specified Employee Payment Date and thereafter, any remaining payments will be paid without delay in accordance with their original schedule.

10.Section 2800 of the Code. If any of the payments or benefits received or to be received by Executive (including, without limitation, any payment or benefits received in connection with a Change in Control or Executive’s termination of employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement, or otherwise) (all such payments collectively referred to as the “280G Payments”) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and would, but for this Section 12, be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then prior to making the 280G Payments, a calculation will be made comparing (i) the Net Benefit (as defined below) to Executive of the 280G Payments after payment of the Excise Tax to (ii) the Net Benefit to Executive if the 280G Payments are limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount under (ii) above will the 280G Payments be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the 280G Payments is subject to the Excise Tax. For purposes of this Agreement, “Net Benefit”

means the present value of the 280G Payments net of all federal, state, local or foreign income, employment and excise taxes. Any reduction made pursuant to this Section 10 will be made in a manner determined by the Company that is consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. All calculations and determinations under this Section 10 will be made by an independent accounting firm or independent tax counsel appointed by the Company (“Tax Counsel”) whose determinations will be conclusive and binding on the Company and Executive for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations required by this Section 10. Tax Counsel may rely on reasonable, good faith assumptions and approximations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish the Tax Counsel with such information and documents as Tax Counsel may reasonably request to make its determinations under this Section 10, and the costs of such determination will be borne by the Company.

11.Cooperation with Litigation. During and following Executive’s Termination of Employment with the Company (regardless of the reason for Executive’s Termination of Employment with the Company and which Party initiates the Termination of Employment with the Company), Executive agrees to cooperate with and be readily available to the Company, the Company’s General Counsel (or equivalent position within the Company) or the Company’s advisers, as the Company may reasonably request, to assist it in any matter regarding the Company and its subsidiaries, including giving truthful testimony in any litigation, potential litigation or any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory, judicial or quasi-judicial proceedings involving the Company or its subsidiaries, with respect to which Executive has knowledge, experience or information. Executive acknowledges that this could involve, but is not limited to, responding to or defending any regulatory or legal process, providing information in relation to any such process, preparing witness statements and giving evidence in person on behalf of the Company. The Company will work with Executive to ensure that such cooperation does not unduly burden Executive, work in good faith to accommodate Executive’s other commitments and reimburse any reasonable expenses incurred by Executive, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, as a consequence of complying with Executive’s obligations under this Section 10, provided that such expenses are approved in advance by the Company.

12.Notice. All notices, requests, permissions, waivers and other communications under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) five business days following sending by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, (b) when sent, if sent by e- mail during normal business hours and received at the recipient’s location during normal business hours, and otherwise on the next business day, (c) when delivered, if delivered personally to the intended recipient and (d) one business day following sending by overnight delivery via a national courier service and, in each case, addressed to a Party at the following address for such Party:
