WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive (the “Parties” and each, a “Party”) desire to set forth the terms and conditions of the Executive’s retirement and to agree to certain modifications to the CIC Agreement in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, both Parties have read and understand, and desire and intend to be bound by, the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and mutual promises and agreements contained in this Agreement and other valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1.Retirement; Resignation. Effective as of immediately following the execution of the Merger Agreement on the Retirement Date, the Executive hereby retires from employment with the Company and resigns from his position as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and all other positions as an officer, director and/or manager that he holds with the Company or any affiliate of the Company, other than the Executive’s position as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Executive agrees that he shall not resign from the Board prior to the earlier to occur of (a) the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) and (b) termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms and shall serve on the Board until such time without the payment of additional compensation.
2. CIC Agreement. The Company and the Executive agree to treat the Executive’s retirement pursuant to Section 1 as a “Termination of Employment” (as defined in the CIC Agreement) for purposes of the CIC Agreement and, in connection with such Termination of Employment, the Company agrees to pay or provide to the Executive, in full satisfaction of the
Company’s obligations under Sections 3.1, 3.2(a), 3.2(b), 3.2(c), 3.2(d) and 3.2(e) of the CIC Agreement, the severance payments and benefits set forth on Exhibit A to this Separation Agreement.

The Company’s payment of the compensation described in Section 3 and Section 4 is subject to applicable federal, state and local income and payroll tax withholding. The Executive shall have no right to any further payments or benefits from the Company or any of its affiliates other than as set forth in this Separation Agreement and the Consulting and Release Agreement between the Company and the Executive dated as of the date hereof, however calculated or paid, including bonuses, commissions, incentive compensation, contributions to the Company’s 401(k) plan and perquisites.
5. Certification.

This Section 7 shall supersede and replace Sections 9.5 and 9.11 of the CIC Agreement.
8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the CIC Agreement (as modified by this Agreement), and the concurrently-executed Consulting and Release Agreement, constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the Parties, and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, if any, among or between the Parties with respect to the termination of the Executive’s employment and the severance compensation and benefits due to the Executive. The Executive acknowledges and he agrees that he shall be entitled to no severance payments or benefits under any agreement, plan, program, or policy of the Company and its affiliates, except as set forth in the CIC Agreement, as modified by Section 3 and Exhibit A.

that are not fully expressed or incorporated by reference in this Agreement, the CIC Agreement (as modified by this Agreement), and the Consulting and Release Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any existing agreements between Executive and the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates with respect to confidentiality, proprietary information, inventions, non-competition or non-solicitation, including without limitation the Proprietary Information, Inventions and Non-Solicitation Agreement by and between the Company and the Executive dated as of August 8, 2005, shall remain in full force and effect.
9. Amendments. Any modification of this Agreement or additional obligation assumed by either Party in connection with this Agreement shall be binding only if evidenced in writing signed by each Party. This Agreement cannot be changed or terminated orally, but may be changed only through a written document executed by both Parties.
10. Severability. If any term of this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, unconscionable or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain effective and legally binding, and the illegal, invalid, unconscionable or unenforceable term shall be deemed not to be a part of this Agreement.
