CEO Succession

On July 26, 2023, PTC Inc. (“PTC” or the “Company”) announced that Neil Barua will be appointed Chief Executive Officer of PTC effective as of the close of PTC’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which is expected to be held on February 14, 2024 (the “Effective Date”). Mr. Barua has served as President of PTC’s Service Lifecycle Management Business since PTC’s acquisition of ServiceMax, Inc. in January 2023. Mr. Barua will replace James Heppelmann who, as part of the Board of Directors’ CEO succession plan, will step down from his role as Chief Executive Officer on the Effective Date.

Mr. Barua served as Chief Executive Officer of ServiceMax, Inc., a recognized leader in cloud-native, product-centric field service management (FSM) software, from April 2019 through January 2023. He served as Chief Executive Officer of IPC Systems, Inc., a global provider of specialized technology solutions for the financial services community, where he oversaw the company’s SaaS transformation, from August 2014 to April 2018, and was an operating partner at Silver Lake, a global leader in technology investing, from April 2018 to April 2019. Mr. Barua holds a B.S. in Finance & Economics from the NYU Stern School of Business. Mr. Barua is 46 years old.

In connection with the succession plan and his appointment as CEO-Elect, Mr. Barua’s annual salary was increased to $800,000 and his target annual incentive bonus was increased to 150% of his base salary, both of which are pro-rated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023 (“FY2023”). Mr. Barua will also be granted restricted stock units valued at $5,000,000 on July 27, 2023, which RSUs will vest in three substantially equal annual installments in August 2024, 2025 and 2026. Mr. Barua will be granted restricted stock units valued at $11 million in November 2023, at the same time as equity grants are made to our other executives and on the same terms and conditions, including performance measures, as for our other executives. Mr. Barua will also receive a net payment of $200,000 to facilitate his relocation to PTC’s worldwide headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts. The preceding description of Mr. Barua’s compensation and other arrangements is qualified by reference to the full text of the offer letter dated July 24, 2023 between the Company and Mr. Barua (the “Offer Letter”), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.

On July 24, 2023, Mr. Barua also entered into an Executive Agreement with PTC that provides certain compensation and employment protections to Mr. Barua. The Executive Agreement provides that, upon a change in control of the Company, (i) all performance measures under any outstanding equity award held by him will be deemed to have been met at the target level, and (ii) he will receive a payment in an amount equal to the pro-rata portion of his target incentive bonus for the current year. Upon termination of his employment within two years after a change in control of the Company, (i) he will receive a payment in an amount equal to: (a) 200% of his highest base salary in the six months preceding the termination date, plus (b) 200% of his highest applicable target bonus, plus (c) a pro-rata portion of his target bonus for the applicable year, less any portion paid on the change in control, and (ii) all equity awards held by him will accelerate and vest in full. The Executive Agreement also provides that, upon termination of Mr. Barua’s employment by the Company without cause, or resignation by Mr. Barua for Other Reason, (i) he will receive a payment in an amount equal to: (a) 200% of his highest base salary in the six months preceding the termination date plus 200% of his target bonus for the year in which the termination occurs plus (b) a pro-rata portion of his target bonus for the applicable year, and (ii) all equity awards held by him that would have vested in the twelve months following the termination date will vest, provided that, if such termination or resignation occurs before February 28, 2025, the portions of all equity awards held by him issued before July 24, 2023 that were scheduled to vest on or before February 28, 2025 will vest in full. Mr. Barua will also be eligible to continue to participate in certain of PTC’s benefit programs for a period of 24 months after a change in control termination or for a period of 18 months after termination by the Company without cause or resignation by him for Other Reason, or, in each case, to receive an amount to enable him to purchase substantially equivalent benefits. Other Reason under the Executive Agreement includes a reduction of his base salary and target annual incentive bonus, failure of the Company to appoint Mr. Barua as Chief Executive Officer of the Company at the Effective Time or to maintain him in such position thereafter, a material diminution of his responsibilities or scope of his position, a breach by the Company of its material obligations under the Executive Agreement or the Offer Letter, or any requirement he relocate to a primary work site that would increase his commute by more than fifty miles from his residence. The Executive Agreement also provides that upon termination of his employment by the Company due to his death or disability, all equity held by him will vest in full. To receive the payments and benefits under the Executive Agreement, Mr. Barua must execute a release of claims in favor of the Company and continue to comply with the terms of his Proprietary Information and Non-Competition Agreement with the Company. The preceding description of the Executive Agreement is qualified by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Form 8-K.

Given his continued service as PTC’s Chief Executive Officer through the Effective Date, Mr. Heppelmann’s compensation will remain unchanged for FY2023. Mr. Heppelmann’s compensation for FY2024 will be established by the Compensation and People Committee at the time such compensation is established for our other executive officers.

(d) effective as of the later of the date of termination or the effectiveness of the Release (as defined below), acceleration of vesting of the portion of each Equity Award held by the Executive that would have vested within one year after the date of termination, with any performance measure applicable to any such portion of an outstanding Equity Award to be deemed to have been met at the Target Level, provided that, if such date of termination occurs on or after October 1 and before November 15, any performance measure applicable to any such portion of any outstanding Equity Award held by the Executive shall be deemed to have been met at the actual performance level achieved for the fiscal year ended September 30 of the calendar year in which the date of termination occurs; provided that, if on or before February 28, 2025 the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause or the Executive resigns for Other Reason, the portions of all outstanding Equity Awards held by the Executive that were issued prior to the date hereof that were eligible to vest on or before February 28, 2025 shall immediately become vested and exercisable or distributable in full.

(e) continued participation in the Company’s medical, dental, and/or vision benefit plans (the “Benefit Plans”), subject to the terms and conditions of the respective plans and applicable law and the Executive’s election of continued coverage under COBRA, for a period of eighteen (18) months following the date of termination; provided that, to the extent that any of the Benefit Plans does not permit such continuation of the Executive’s participation following the Executive’s termination or any such plan is terminated, the Company shall pay the Executive an amount which is sufficient for the Executive to purchase substantially equivalent benefits, such amount to be paid quarterly in advance; provided further, however, that to the extent the Executive becomes eligible to receive medical, dental, and/or vision benefits under a plan provided by another employer, the Executive’s entitlement to participate in the corresponding Benefit Plans or to receive such corresponding alternate payments shall cease as of the date the Executive is eligible to participate in such other plan, and the Executive shall promptly notify the Company of the Executive’s eligibility under such plan.

3. Change in Control

(a) Equity Awards. Effective upon a Change in Control that occurs during the Executive’s employment, and except as provided in any Equity Award documentation that explicitly or implicitly excludes such Equity Award from the effects of this Section 3, the following shall occur:

(i) any performance measure(s) applicable to any outstanding Equity Award held by the Executive shall be deemed to have been met at the Target Level (which deemed performance will not affect any service-based vesting schedule for such Equity Award); and

5

(ii) each outstanding Equity Award held by the Executive shall be deemed amended automatically to provide that, notwithstanding any provision of any Stock Plan, such Equity Award may not be terminated or forfeited without the Executive’s written consent (provided that this shall not prevent termination of (A) any unvested portion thereof that is terminated or forfeited upon termination of the Executive’s employment as provided in the respective Stock Plan or in any agreement or certificate executed in connection with such Equity Award, (B) a stock option the termination of which is covered by Section 8(i) of the Company’s 2000 Equity Incentive Plan, or (C) an Equity Award upon payment of a cash payment to the Executive with a Fair Market Value (as defined in the applicable Stock Plan) equal to the amount that would have been received upon the exercise or payment of the Equity Award had the Equity Award been exercised or paid upon the Change in Control.)

(b) Target Bonus. In the event of a Change in Control that occurs during the Executive’s employment or a Change in Control Termination under Section 1(f)(iii) (subject to the Executive satisfying all of the Conditions to Payment of Severance (as set forth in Section 11 below)), effective upon the Change in Control, the Executive shall be entitled to payment in an amount equal to a pro-rata portion of the Target Bonus, if any, for which the Executive is eligible for the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs, based on the percentage of the performance period completed through the date of the Change in Control, which payment shall be made in one lump sum within forty-five (45) days of the date of the Change in Control;

(c) Change in Control Termination Benefits.

(i) Equity Awards. Effective upon the later of a Change in Control Termination or the effectiveness of the Release executed in connection with such Change in Control Termination and subject to the Executive satisfying all of the Conditions to Payment of Severance (as set forth in Section 11 below), the following shall occur:

(A) all outstanding Equity Awards held by the Executive shall immediately become vested and exercisable or distributable in full;

(B) all restrictions applicable to restricted stock issued under any Stock Plan and held by the Executive shall immediately lapse; and

(C) each outstanding stock option issued by the Company and held by the Executive shall remain exercisable, following the termination of the Executive’s employment, until the close of business on the earlier of (x) the end of the original maximum term of such option, or (y) two years following the date of termination of the Executive’s employment.

(ii) Make-Up Payment. In the event a Change in Control Termination under Section 1(f)(iii) and subject to the Executive satisfying all of the Conditions to Payment of Severance (as set forth in Section 11 below), the Executive shall be entitled to a cash payment in an amount equal to the sum of:

(A) the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (1) the number of additional shares of the Company’s Common Stock that were subject to Equity Awards that would have become vested and exercisable and/or as to which the restrictions would have lapsed, in each case solely as a result of Section 3(c)(i), and for which the Executive would have been entitled to receive consideration in the Change in Control (on the same basis as other holders of the Company’s Common Stock), had the Executive remained employed through the date of the Change in Control and was deemed to have exercised all the stock options that would then have become exercisable under Section 3(c)(i)(A) times (2) the amount per share of the Company’s Common Stock (if any) received by the Company’s stockholders generally pursuant to the Change in Control (the “Shareholder Price”) over (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such additional stock options that the Executive would then have become able to exercise upon the Change in Control as a result of Section 3(c)(i)(A) (whereupon all such Equity Awards shall terminate and shall no longer be exercisable); and

6

(B) the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (1) the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that the Executive (a) held on the date of termination of the Executive’s employment or could have acquired upon exercise of stock options held on such date and (b) sold before the consummation of the Change in Control (the “Pre-Sold Shares”) times (2) the Shareholder Price over (B) the aggregate amount received by the Executive in the sale(s) of the Pre-Sold Shares.

The Company shall pay this lump sum payment within sixty (60) days following the Executive’s date of termination.

(iii) Salary, Annual Incentive Bonus and Benefits. Effective upon the later of a Change in Control Termination or the effectiveness of the Release executed in connection with such Change in Control Termination and subject to the Executive satisfying all of the Conditions to Payment of Severance (as set forth in Section 11 below), the Executive shall be entitled to the following:

(A) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to 200% of the Executive’s base salary plus 200% of the Executive’s Target Bonus, such base salary to be the highest annual base salary in effect with respect to the Executive during the six-month period immediately preceding the Executive’s termination and such Target Bonus to be the highest Target Bonus in effect with respect to the Executive for (1) the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs, (2) the fiscal year following the year in which the Change in Control occurs, or (3) the fiscal year in which the Change in Control Termination occurs, whichever is highest, payable within sixty (60) days after the date of termination;

(B) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to the pro-rata portion of the Target Bonus for which the Executive is eligible for the fiscal year in which the Change in Control Termination occurs based on the percentage of the performance period completed through the date of termination, payable within sixty (60) days after the Change in Control Termination date; provided, however, that if Executive received a pro-rata Target Bonus payment under Section 3(b) for the applicable fiscal year (the “Earlier Payment”), then the amount payable under this Section 3(c)(iii)(B) shall be reduced by the amount of the Earlier Payment; and

(C) continued participation in the Benefit Plans, subject to the terms and conditions of the respective plans and applicable law and the Executive’s election of continued coverage under COBRA, for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the termination date; provided that, to the extent that any of the Benefit Plans does not permit such continuation of the Executive’s participation following the Executive’s termination or any such plan is terminated, the Company shall pay the Executive an amount which is sufficient for the Executive to purchase substantially equivalent benefits, such amount to be paid quarterly in advance; provided, further, however, that to the extent the Executive becomes eligible to receive medical, dental, and/or vision benefits under a plan provided by another employer, the Executive’s entitlement to participate in the corresponding Benefit Plans or to receive such corresponding alternate payments shall cease as of the date the Executive is eligible to participate in such other plan, and the Executive shall promptly notify the Company of the Executive’s eligibility under such plan.

(iv) No Duplication. Payments and benefits under this Section 3(c) shall be in lieu and without duplication of any amounts or benefits under Section 2. If, in the event of a Change in Control Termination under Section 1(f)(iii), the Executive becomes entitled to payments under this Section 3(c) after the Executive has begun to receive payments under Section 2, the Executive shall be entitled to a make-up payment to ensure that the Executive receives the higher amount payable hereunder, with such make-up payment being made within forty-five (45) days following the Change in Control Termination.

(d) Deemed Amendment of Equity Awards. The Company and the Executive hereby agree that the agreements evidencing any Equity Awards to the Executive are hereby and will be deemed amended to give effect to the provisions of Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement.

7

4. Death or Disability

Effective upon a termination of the Executive’s employment due to Executive’s death or by the Company due to the Executive’s Disability, except as provided in any Equity Award documentation that explicitly or implicitly excludes such Equity Award from the effects of this section, all performance measures applicable to any Equity Awards held by the Executive shall be deemed to have been met at the Target Level and all Equity Awards held by the Executive shall immediately become vested, unrestricted and exercisable or distributable at the Target Level.

5. Section 409A

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) at the time of the Executive’s separation from service with the Company (in connection with a Change in Control Termination or otherwise), no payment or benefit payable or provided to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement that constitutes an item of deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and becomes payable by reason of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company will be paid or provided to the Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6) month period following the date of the Executive’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined by Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder), or (ii) the date of the Executive’s death, but only to the extent such delayed commencement is otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2). The payments and benefits to which the Executive would otherwise be entitled during the first six (6) months following the Executive’s separation from service shall be accumulated and paid or provided, as applicable, in a lump sum, on the date that is six (6) months and one day following the Executive’s separation from service (or if such date does not fall on a business day of the Company, the next following business day) and any remaining payments or benefits will be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(b) All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by the Executive during the time periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses). Such right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(c) To the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the Executive’s termination of employment, then such payments or benefits shall be payable only upon the Executive’s “separation from service.” The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A 1(h).

(d) The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with Code Section 409A. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Code Section 409A, the provision shall be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Code Section 409A. Each payment pursuant to this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A 2(b)(2). The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended, as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Code Section 409A and all related rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party.

(e) The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

8

6. Taxes

(a) Withholding. All payments to be made to the Executive under this Agreement will be subject to any required withholding of federal, state and local income and employment taxes. In addition, the Company may withhold from any payments hereunder any amounts attributable to withholding taxes applicable to the vesting of or lapse of restrictions on restricted stock or restricted stock units held by the Executive or the exercise of any nonqualified stock options held by the Executive, including, in its discretion withholding from any shares deliverable to the Executive such number of shares as the Company determines is necessary to satisfy such tax obligations, valued at their fair market value (determined pursuant to the respective Company equity compensation plan) as of the date of such vesting or lapse of restrictions.

(b) Limitations on Payments.

(i) If it is determined that any payment, benefit or distribution provided for in this Agreement or otherwise (for the purposes of this Section 6(b), each, a “Payment” and collectively, the “Payments”) from the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (x) constitutes a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (y) but for this subsection (b), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), such Payments shall be either:

(A) delivered in full, or

(B) delivered to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax,

whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by the Executive on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payments may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 6(b)(i) shall be made in writing in good faith by an independent accounting firm selected by the Company, whose determinations shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive (the “Accountants”), in good faith consultation with the Executive.

(ii) In the event a reduction in the Payments is required hereunder, the Payments shall be reduced in the following order, in each case, in reverse chronological order beginning with the Payments that are to be paid the furthest in time from consummation of the transaction that is subject to Section 280G of the Code: (1) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code; (2) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code; (3) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (4) non-cash forms of benefits; provided that in the case of all the foregoing Payments all amounts or payments that are not subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c) shall be reduced before any amounts that are subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c) and Payments that are subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) but not §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(c) shall be reduced before any amounts that are subject to calculation under §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(c).

(iii) For purposes of making the determinations and calculations required by this Section 6(b), the Accountants:

(A) shall take into account the value of any reasonable compensation for services to be rendered by the Executive before or after the Change in Control within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and the regulations thereunder, including without limitation, the Executive’s agreeing to refrain from performing services pursuant to a covenant not to compete or similar covenant, whether set forth in this Agreement or otherwise (a “Noncompete Covenant”), and the Company shall cooperate in good faith in connection with any such valuations and reasonable compensation positions; and

9

(B) may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning the application of taxes and may rely on reasonable good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code.

The Company and the Executive shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 6(b). The Executive shall be entitled to receive a draft copy of the calculations produced by the Accountants with a reasonable time for review and the Accountants shall reasonably consider comments on such draft calculations timely provided by the Executive. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6(b).

(iv) If the Payments are reduced to avoid the Excise Tax pursuant to Section 6(b)(i) hereof and notwithstanding such reduction, the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) determines that the Executive is liable for the Excise Tax as a result of the receipt of Payments from the Company, then the Executive shall be obligated to pay to the Company (the “Repayment Obligation”) an amount of money equal to the “Repayment Amount.” The Repayment Amount shall be the smallest such amount, if any, as shall be required to be paid to the Company so that the Executive’s net proceeds with respect to the Payments (after taking into account the payment of the Excise Tax imposed on such benefits) shall be maximized. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repayment Amount shall be zero if a Repayment Amount of more than zero would not eliminate the Excise Tax in accordance with the principles of Section 6(b)(i). If the Excise Tax is not eliminated through the performance of the Repayment Obligation, the Executive shall pay the Excise Tax. The Repayment Obligation shall be discharged within thirty (30) days of either (A) the Executive’s entering into a binding agreement with the IRS as to the amount of Excise Tax liability, or (B) a final determination by the IRS or a court decision requiring the Executive to pay the Excise Tax from which no appeal is available or is timely taken.

7. Recovery of Incentive Compensation Received upon Subsequent Restatement

Executive understands that Executive is or may become subject to the Company’s Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy adopted pursuant to Rule 10D-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act and Nasdaq Rule 5608, or any successor rule (the “Clawback Policy”). Executive understands that if Executive is or becomes subject to the Clawback Policy, the Company and/or the Board shall be entitled to recover all Recoverable Compensation (as defined in the Clawback Policy) from Executive pursuant to such means as the Company and/or the Board may elect that are consistent with the Clawback Policy. The Executive understands that such recovery may be sought and occur after Executive’s employment with the Company terminates. The Executive further agrees that the Executive is not entitled to indemnification for any Recoverable Compensation or for any claim or losses arising out of or in any way related to Recoverable Compensation recovered pursuant to the Clawback Policy and, to the extent any agreement or organizational document purports to provide otherwise, the Executive hereby irrevocably agrees to forego such indemnification. This Section 7 is a material term of this Agreement.

8. Term

This Agreement shall continue in effect until the Executive’s employment is terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof. If a Change in Control occurs while this Agreement is in effect, the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended to the second anniversary of the Change in Control. Upon the termination of this Agreement, the respective rights and obligations of the parties shall survive to the extent necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties as embodied herein.

9. Successors and Assigns

(a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and is not assignable by the Executive, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, without the prior written consent of the Company.

10

(b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

(c) The Company will require any successor or acquirer (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as defined above and any successor to or acquirer of its business and/or assets that assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement.

10. No Duty to Mitigate

In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and, except as contemplated by Sections 2(b) and 3(c)(iii)(B) hereof, any benefits payable to the Executive hereunder shall not be subject to reduction for any compensation received from other employment.

11. Conditions to Payment of Severance

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Executive’s entitlement to receive any of the payments and other benefits contemplated by Sections 2, 3 or 4 (with respect to Disability) hereof shall be contingent upon:

(a) execution by the Executive within forty-five (45) days of the date of termination (or a shorter period as may be determined by the Company) of a general release in substantially the form of Appendix A hereto (such applicable form depending on Executive’s location and other legitimate factors taken into consideration by the Company to obtain the fullest release of claims permissible under applicable state and federal law at the time of termination (provided that no such updated release shall limit the carve outs included in Section 4(b) of the release attached at Appendix A), and the incorporation by reference of the terms of the Proprietary Information and Non-Competition Agreement you entered into with the Company, including the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions thereof (the “Release”), which, if applicable, has not subsequently been revoked, and the Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s entering into this Agreement and agreement to make such payments are and shall be good and sufficient consideration for such Release; and

(b) the Executive’s continued compliance with the material terms of this Agreement, as applicable, and the material terms of the Executive’s then effective Proprietary Information and Non-Competition Agreement and any then-effective non-compete and /or non-solicitation agreement with the Company.

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, except any such laws that would render such choice of law ineffective.

(b) Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

(c) Partial Invalidity. If any provision in this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will nevertheless continue in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way.

(d) Entire Agreement; Effect of Current Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Offer Letter, and the documents referenced herein and therein constitute the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto regarding the compensation and benefits payable to the Executive in the respective circumstances described herein, superseding all prior understandings and agreements, whether oral or written, including the

11
