(b) upon determination by the Company’s Board of Directors or Compensation Committee, as appropriate, to be made in its sole discretion as to whether to grant a bonus, and if such bonus is granted, the amount, form and payment schedule.

(ii) all outstanding performance-based equity compensation awards granted to the Employee during the Term of Employment shall remain outstanding and shall vest or be forfeited in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreements, if the applicable performance goals are satisfied. The determination whether such performance goals are satisfied shall be in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee or the Board, as the case may be.

(a) The Employee’s employment hereunder shall terminate automatically upon the Employee’s death, and the Company may terminate the Employee’s employment on account of the Employee’s Disability.

5.11 Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code .

 

(a) This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“ Section 409A ”) and shall be construed and interpreted consistent with that intent. In the event that any payment or benefit payable under Section 5 of this Agreement is not compliant with Section 409A and any taxes, penalties or interest are imposed on the Employee under Section 409A as a result of such noncompliance (the “ Section 409A Penalties ”), the Company shall put the Employee in an after tax economic position equivalent to the position the Employee would have been in without the imposition of such Section 409A Penalties. The Employee shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities that, if successful, would require the payment of any such Section 409A Penalties or related state tax statutes. The Employee’s right to be put in an equivalent after tax economic position is subject to the Employee providing such notification no later than ten (10) business days after Employee is informed in writing of such claim. If the Company desires to contest such claim, Employee shall (i) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim and (ii) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim. The Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest. This section shall also apply to any taxes, penalties, or interest imposed by any state that are calculated in a manner similar to taxes, penalties, or interest imposed by Section 409A(a)(1)(B), including those amounts imposed by the California Revenue and Taxation Code ( R&TC ) Sections 17501 and 24601.

(b) If and to the extent that any payment or benefit under this Agreement, or any plan or arrangement of the Company, is determined by the Company to constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A and is payable to the Employee by reason of the Employee’s termination of employment, then (a) such payment or benefit shall be made or provided to the Employee only upon a “separation from service” as defined for purposes of Section 409A under applicable regulations (a “ Separation from Service ”) and (b) if the Employee is a “ specified employee ” (within the meaning of Section 409A and as determined by the Company), such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided before the date that is six (6) months after the date of the Employee’s Separation from Service (or the Employee’s earlier death). For the purposes of clarity, the first payment thereof will include a catch-up payment covering the amount that would have otherwise been paid to the Employee during the period between the termination of Employee’s employment and the first payment date but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments (if any) will be payable in accordance with their original schedule.

 

(c) To the extent any expense reimbursement or in-kind benefit is determined to be subject to Section 409A, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year (except under any lifetime limit applicable to expenses for medical care), in no event shall any expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Employee incurred such expenses, and in no event shall any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

 

(d) To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, the provision will be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A. To the extent any payment under this Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be deemed a short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. Payments pursuant to this section are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

 

6. NON-COMPETITION .

 

The Employee acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Company, the amount of sensitive and confidential information involved in the discharge of the Employee’s position with the Company, and the harm to the Company that would result if such knowledge or expertise was disclosed or made available to a competitor.

(a) As a result of the particular nature of the Employee’s relationship with the Company, in the capacities identified earlier in this Agreement, for the Term of Employment, the Employee hereby agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in any business for the Employee’s own account or otherwise derive any personal benefit from any business that competes with the business of the Company or any of its affiliates (the Company and its subsidiaries or parent, if any, are referred to, collectively, as the “ Company Group ”), (ii) enter the employ of, or render any services to, any Person engaged in any business that competes with the business of any entity within the Company Group, (iii) acquire a financial interest in any Person engaged in any business that competes with the business of any entity within the Company Group, directly or indirectly, as an individual, partner, member, shareholder, officer, director, principal, agent, trustee or consultant, or (iv) interfere with business relationships (whether formed before or after the Effective Date) between the Company or any of its respective affiliates or subsidiaries, and any customers, suppliers, officers, employees, partners, members or investors of any entity within the Company Group. For purposes of this Agreement, businesses in competition with the Company Group shall include, without limitation, businesses which any entity within the Company Group may conduct operations, and any businesses which any entity within the Company Group has specific plans to conduct operations in the future and as to which the Employee is aware of such planning, whether or not such businesses have or have not as of that date commenced operations.

Employee may indirectly, through a mutual or exchange traded fund, own, solely as an investment, securities of a business that competes with the business of the Company Group, which are publicly traded on a national or regional stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market if the Employee (i) is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group that controls, such Person, and (ii) does not, directly or indirectly, beneficially own one percent (1%) or more of any class of securities of such business. For purposes of this Section 6(b) , “ Person ” shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof, including a “group” as described in Section 13(d) thereof.
