(b)           Office Space, etc. During the Consulting Period, the Company will provide Dr. Rothberg with reasonable office space at the Company’s headquarters and access to secretarial and administrative assistance as needed so that he may perform his duties hereunder.

(c)           Equity Awards.

6.              Conflicts with this Agreement. Dr. Rothberg represents and warrants that he is not under any pre-existing obligation in conflict or in any way inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
