WHEREAS, the parties hereto have mutually agreed that it is in their respective best interests to allow for the Executive to separate from the Company and that such separation is not for any Cause attributable to the Executive;

WHEREAS, as provided in the Severance Agreement, as a condition to the receipt of the payments and benefits contained therein and in return for the Executive’s execution of the general release of claims against the Company and its affiliates attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “General Release”), the Company agrees to pay to the Executive at the time and in the amounts as provided in Section 4.2(a) of the Severance Agreement, which amounts are set forth herein;

WHEREAS, in addition, the Company is also willing to provide additional compensation to the Executive in the form of continued vesting of certain stock options and restricted stock units as provided herein and the extension of the expiration date of stock options, in return for the Executive’s execution of the General Release and certain additional agreements by the Executive, including the Executive’s agreement to provide consulting services to the Company as set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to enter into a formal agreement to ensure that such separation proceeds in an organized and efficient fashion; and

WHEREAS, this Agreement shall become effective following the expiration of the seven (7) day revocation period described in Section 11 of the General Release.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, terms, provisions, and conditions contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. Separation of Employment; Resignation from Board. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Executive will resign from his positions as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company and his employment with the Company will end effective upon the opening of business on May 11, 2012 (the “Separation Date”). The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that, pursuant to the Executive’s separation, the Executive will resign from his position as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors as of the close of business on November 15, 2012 (the “Board Resignation Date”), by executing the letter of resignation attached as Exhibit B hereto. The parties acknowledge and agree that from and after the Separation Date, the Executive shall have no authority, and shall not represent himself, as an officer or employee of the Company, and from and after the Board Resignation Date, as a director and agent of the Company.


2. Separation Benefit. In exchange for the mutual covenants set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Executive with the following pursuant to Section 4.2(a) of the Severance Agreement (together, the “Separation Benefit”):

(a) Lump-Sum Payment. Within thirty (30) days following the Separation Date, the Company shall provide the Executive with a lump sum payment, less all applicable federal, state, local and other employment-related deductions, equal to the total of:

(i) one (1) times the Executive’s gross annual base salary as of the Separation Date (i.e., a total of $395,000);

(ii) one (1) times the Executive’s current fiscal year target bonus amount (i.e., a total of $197,500); and

(iii) $181,041.66, representing eleven (11) months accrual of the Executive’s current fiscal year target bonus amount.

(b) Payment of Company Share of COBRA Premiums. In the event that the Executive chooses to exercise the Executive’s right under COBRA1 to continue the Executive’s participation in the Company’s health and dental insurance plan and makes all timely and proper elections with respect to same under COBRA, the Company shall pay a percentage of the costs equal to the percentage of the costs currently paid by the Company for active employees for the same health and dental insurance coverage the Executive and Executive’s dependent(s) had as of the Separation Date for a period of twelve (12) months, to the same extent that such insurance is provided to persons then currently employed by the Company. The Executive’s co-pay, if any, shall be paid by the Executive directly to the Company’s insurer or third party COBRA administrator within seven (7) days of receipt of notice of such payment due or as scheduled under the COBRA notice. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this obligation shall cease on the date the Executive becomes eligible to receive substantially similar health and dental insurance benefits and on substantially similar terms through any other employer of the Executive, and the Executive agrees to provide the Company with written notice immediately upon becoming eligible for such benefits. The Executive’s acceptance of any payment on the Executive’s behalf or coverage provided hereunder shall be an express representation to the Company that the Executive has no such eligibility under another employer’s group health and dental plan.

The Executive’s eligibility for benefits under COBRA, the amount of such benefits, and the terms and conditions of such benefits, shall be determined by COBRA statutory and regulatory guidelines.

vacation (which shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices and applicable law), (iii) the reimbursement of any properly and timely documented expenses incurred by the Executive on the Company’s behalf through the Separation Date, pursuant to the Company’s standard expense reimbursement policy, (iv) the contribution by the Company if allowed under the Company’s 401(k) plan, to the extent not already made as of the Separation Date, of a pro rata portion of the Company’s matching contribution pursuant to the Company’s 401(k) plan, and (v) the Executive’s equity vesting as described in Section 3 below, the Executive shall not be entitled to any other compensation or payment from the Company including, without limitation, other wages, commissions, bonuses, vacation pay, holiday pay, paid time off, stock, stock options, or any other form of equity, compensation or benefit. In addition, the Executive waives any notice provisions contained in the Severance Agreement.

3. Equity. The terms and conditions of the Company’s 2009 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and any agreements executed by the Company or the Executive pursuant thereto (together, the “Equity Award Agreements”), are incorporated herein by reference and shall survive the signing of this Agreement, as modified herein. In exchange for the mutual covenants set forth in this Agreement, the Equity Award Agreements shall be modified as follows:

(a) vesting shall continue pursuant to all Equity Award Agreements until the Board Resignation Date, provided that the Executive has not breached this Agreement in any material respect;

(b) vesting pursuant to the stock option grant dated September 22, 2011, in the amount of 300,000 shares shall be accelerated such that as of the Board Resignation Date, options for 75,000 additional shares shall be vested and exercisable, provided that the Executive has not breached this Agreement in any material respect;

The parties acknowledge and agree that other than the vesting of the equity as provided for in this Section 3 and detailed on Exhibit C, the Executive shall not have any right to vest in any additional stock or stock options or other equity-based awards under the Equity Incentive Plan, Equity Award Agreements or any other Company stock, stock option plan, or equity-based plan (of whatever name or kind) that the Executive may have participated in or was eligible to participate in during the Executive’s employment or consulting term, and he shall not be eligible to receive any compensation, including but not limited to equity under any non-employee director compensation policy of the Company while continuing as a director.

The Executive further agrees that should he be contacted (directly or indirectly) by any person or entity adverse to the Company, the Executive shall promptly notify the Company pursuant to Section 7(a). The parties acknowledge and agree that the Executive shall not be required to perform more than twenty (20) hours of consulting services per week during the consulting term. The parties further acknowledge and agree that the Company shall reimburse the Executive for any properly and timely documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Executive in rendering the foregoing consulting services, consistent with the Company’s standard expense reimbursement policy.

The Executive shall not be considered an employee for purposes of any Company employment policy or any employment benefit plan, and shall not be entitled to any benefits under any such policy or benefit plan, while performing such services.

(b) The parties intend this Agreement to be in compliance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event of any ambiguity in the terms of this Agreement, such term(s) shall be interpreted and at all times administered in a manner that avoids the inclusion of compensation in income under Section 409A, or the payment of increased taxes, excise taxes or other penalties under Section 409A.

(c) The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not guarantee the tax treatment or tax consequences associated with any payment or benefit arising under this Agreement, including but not limited to consequences related to Section 409A.
