NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals which are incorporated into this Agreement and the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the parties do hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

                                             1.         Separation Date. Employee’s last day of employment with the Company shall be July 15, 2014 (“Separation Date”). Employee shall not be required to report to work after July 1, 2014, and shall have no authority to act on behalf of the Company after such date.

                                             2.         Separation Pay. The Company agrees that, upon receipt by the Company of a duly executed original of this Agreement, and after the expiration of the revocation period described below, and provided that Employee provides his cooperation as discussed below, the Company shall pay to Employee a separation amount equal to the gross amount of nine (9) months of his current salary, i.e., Two Hundred Six Thousand, Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($206,250), less applicable payroll deductions (“the Separation Pay”) in resolution of any claims Employee may have, and in consideration of Employee’s agreements contained herein. The nine (9) months of Separation Pay shall begin the eighth day after Employee signs this Agreement. The Separation Pay will be payable in bimonthly installments consistent with the Company’s regular payroll schedule, the first payment to be made on the first payroll run immediately following the expiration of the revocation period described below. Excepting only such compensation and benefits as may be due to Employee pursuant to Paragraphs 2, 3, and 5, herein, Employee acknowledges receipt of all compensation and benefits, including compensation for any accrued but unused vacation time, due him through the Separation Date as a result of services performed for the Company with the receipt of a final paycheck.

                                             3.         Continuation of Group Health Benefits. In addition, the Company agrees that, should Employee elect to continue his group health benefits through COBRA, the Company will agree to pay the costs of Employee’s COBRA premiums during a period of nine (9) months after the Separation Date.

                                             4.         Reserved.

                                             5.         Vesting of Stock Options. Employee shall receive acceleration of vesting of the options granted under his Employment Agreement and Option Agreement, on a pro-rata basis, as if the vesting schedule had been monthly rather than annual, advanced to July 31, 2014, (i.e., an aggregate of fifty thousand (50,000) options), exercisable at a price of $2.54. The vested options shall remain subject to the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and shall expire 180 days following the Separation Date.

                                             6.         Cooperation. Employee agrees reasonably to cooperate with the Company, at reasonable times, with respect to making himself available to provide information that pertains to subject areas for which Employee had responsibility while employed by the Company for a nine (9) month period after Employee’s execution of this Agreement. The Company shall reimburse the Employee for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Employee’s performance of obligations pursuant to this Section 6, and if the Employee spends more than four (4) hours in any calendar month in performance of these obligations, the Company shall pay the Employee $500 per hour for each part of an hour over four (4) hours in such calendar month.

                                             7.         No Admission of Liability. This Agreement does not constitute an admission of any kind by the Employee or the Company. Employee acknowledges that neither this Agreement nor anything contained herein shall be admissible in any proceeding as evidence of or an admission by the Company of any wrongdoing or violation of its policies and procedures, or of any law or regulation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be introduced into a proceeding solely for the purpose of enforcing this Agreement.

                                             8.         Release of Known and Unknown Claims By Employee. In exchange for the agreements contained in this Agreement, Employee and Company each agrees unconditionally and forever to release and discharge the Employee, his heirs, and any beneficiary through his family trust, or the Company and the Company’s affiliated, related, parent and subsidiary corporations, as well as their respective attorneys, agents, representatives, partners, joint venturers, investors, successors, assigns, insurers, owners, employees, officers, and directors (hereinafter the “Releasees”) from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, rights, or damages of any kind or nature which he may now have, or ever have, whether known or unknown, including any claims, causes of action or demands of any nature arising on or before the date of the execution of this Agreement.

This release specifically includes, but is not limited to, any claims for fraud; breach of contract; breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; inducement of breach; interference with contract; wrongful or unlawful discharge or demotion; violation of public policy; assault and battery (sexual or otherwise); invasion of privacy; intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress; intentional or negligent misrepresentation; conspiracy; failure to pay wages, benefits, vacation pay, severance pay, attorneys’ fees, or other compensation of any sort; retaliation, discrimination or harassment on the basis of age, race, color, sex, gender, national origin, ancestry, religion, disability, handicap, medical condition, marital status, sexual orientation or any other protected category; any claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the California Labor Code, or Section 1981 of Title 42 of the United States Code; violation of COBRA; violation of any safety and health laws, statutes or regulations; violation of ERISA; violation of the Internal Revenue Code; or any other wrongful conduct, based upon events occurring prior to the date of execution of this Agreement.

Employee further agrees knowingly to waive the provisions and protections of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

This release of claims shall be construed as broadly as possible under applicable law but shall not include any claim the release of which would violate California or federal statutory law or the public policy of the State of California.

Nothing in this release of claims shall be construed as prohibiting Employee from making a future claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any similar state agency including, but not limited to the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing provided, however, that should Employee pursue such an administrative action against the Releasees, Employee agrees and acknowledges that he will not seek, nor shall he be entitled to recover, any monetary damages from any such proceeding.
