4.1.1 Termination for Death or Disability. The Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective upon the date of the Executive’s death or “Complete Disability” (as defined in Section 4.5.1), provided, however, that this Section 4.1.1 shall in no way limit the Company’s obligations to provide such reasonable accommodations to the Executive and/or his heirs as may be required by law.

The Executive shall also be eligible to receive a pro-rated Bonus for the year in which the date of termination occurs, as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board based on Executive’s then-current target Bonus and based on actual performance and the period of the year he was employed (hereinafter referred to as the “Pro-rata Bonus”), less standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid as a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the date of termination.

4.4.3 Without Cause or For Good Reason.

(i) Not in Connection With a Change in Control. If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, and Section 4.4.3(ii) below does not apply, the Company shall pay the Accrued Amounts subject to standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid as a lump sum no later than thirty (30) days after the date of termination. In addition, subject to the limitations stated in this Agreement and upon the Executive’s furnishing to the Company an executed waiver and release of claims (the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A) (the “Release”) within the applicable time period set forth therein, but in no event later than forty-five days following termination of employment and permitting such Release to become effective in accordance with its terms (the “Release Effective Date”), and subject to Executive entering into no later than the Release Effective Date a non-competition agreement to be effective during the Severance Period (as defined below), substantially similar to Section 2.3, and continuing to abide by its terms during the Severance Period, the Executive shall be entitled to:

(a) the equivalent of the Executive’s Base Salary in effect at the time of termination will continue to be paid for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of termination (hereinafter referred to as the “Non Change in Control Severance Period”), less standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid during the Non Change in Control Severance Period according to the Company’s regular payroll practices, subject to any delay in payment required by Section 4.6 in connection with the Release Effective Date; and

(b) in the event the Executive timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, the Company will continue to pay the same portion of Executive’s COBRA health insurance premium as the percentage of health insurance premiums that it paid during the Executive’s employment, including any amounts that Company paid for benefits to the qualifying family members of the Executive, following the date of termination up until the earlier of either (i) the last day of the Non Change in Control Severance Period or, (ii) the date on which the Executive begins full-time employment with another company or business entity which offers comparable health insurance coverage to the Executive (such period, the “Non Change in Control COBRA Payment Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the Company cannot provide the COBRA premium benefits without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health

Service Act), the Company shall in lieu thereof pay Executive a taxable cash amount, which payment shall be made regardless of whether the Executive or his qualifying family members elect COBRA continuation coverage (the “Health Care Benefit Payment”). The Health Care Benefit Payment shall be paid in monthly or bi-weekly installments on the same schedule that the COBRA premiums would otherwise have been paid to the insurer. The Health Care Benefit Payment shall be equal to the amount that the Company otherwise would have paid for COBRA insurance premiums (which amount shall be calculated based on the premium for the first month of coverage), and shall be paid until the expiration of the Non Change in Control COBRA Payment Period.

(ii) In Connection With a Change in Control. If the Company (or its successor) terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason within the period commencing three (3) months immediately prior to a Change in Control of the Company and ending eighteen (18) months immediately following a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in Section 4.5.4 of this Agreement), the Executive shall receive the Accrued Amounts subject to standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid as a lump sum no later than thirty (30) days after the date of termination. In addition, subject to the limitations stated in this Agreement and upon the Executive’s furnishing to the Company (or its successor) an executed Release within the applicable time period set forth therein, but in no event later than forty-five days following termination of employment and permitting such Release to become effective in accordance with its terms, and subject to Executive entering into no later than the Release Effective Date a non-competition agreement to be effective during the Severance Period, substantially similar to Section 2.3, and continuing to abide by its terms during the Severance Period, then in lieu of (and not additional to) the benefits provided pursuant to Section 4.4.3(i) above, the Executive shall be entitled to:

(a) the equivalent of the Executive’s Base Salary in effect at the time of termination will continue to be paid for a period of eighteen (18) months following the date of termination (hereinafter referred to as the “Change in Control Severance Period”), less standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid during the Change in Control Severance Period according to the Company’s regular payroll practices, subject to any delay in payment required by Section 4.6 in connection with the Release Effective Date;

(b) one and half (1.5) times Executive’s target Bonus in effect at the time of termination, or if none, one and half (1.5) times the last target Bonus in effect for Executive, less standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid in a lump sum within ten (10) days following the later of (i) the Release Effective Date, or (ii) the effective date of the Change in Control; and

(c) in the event the Executive timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, the Company will continue to pay the same portion of Executive’s COBRA health insurance premium as the percentage of health insurance premiums that it paid during the Executive’s employment, including any amounts that Company paid for benefits to the qualifying family members of the Executive, following the date of termination until the expiration of the Change in Control Severance Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the Company cannot provide the COBRA premium benefits without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company shall in lieu thereof pay Executive the Health Care Benefit Payment, which payment shall be made regardless of whether the Executive or his qualifying family members elect COBRA continuation coverage. The Health Care Benefit Payment shall be paid in monthly or bi-weekly installments on the same schedule that the COBRA premiums would otherwise have been paid to the insurer. The Health Care Benefit Payment shall be equal to the amount that the Company otherwise would have paid for COBRA insurance premiums (which amount shall be calculated based on the premium for the first month of coverage), and shall be paid until the expiration of the Change in Control Severance Period.

(iii) No Duplication of Benefits. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will Executive be entitled to benefits under Section 4.4.3(i) and Section 4.4.3(ii). If Executive commences to receive benefits under Section 4.4.3(i) due to a qualifying termination prior to a Change in Control and thereafter becomes entitled to benefits under Section 4.4.3(ii), any benefits previously provided to Executive under Section 4.4.3(i) shall offset the benefits to be provided to Executive under Section 4.4.3(ii) and shall be deemed to have been provided to Executive pursuant to Section 4.4.3(ii).

4.4.4 Equity Award Acceleration.

(i) Not in Connection With a Change in Control. In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason and Section 4.4.4 (ii) below does not apply, the vesting of any equity awards granted to Executive that vest solely subject to Executive’s continued services to the Company (the “Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards”) shall be deemed vested and immediately exercisable (if applicable) by the Executive with respect to such number of shares as determined in accordance with their applicable vesting schedules as if Executive had provided an additional twelve (12) months of services as of the date of termination. Treatment of any performance based vesting equity awards granted to Executive will in all cases be governed solely by the terms of the equity award plan and/or agreement under which they were granted and will not be eligible to accelerate vesting pursuant to the foregoing provision.

(ii) In Connection With a Change in Control. In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason within the three (3) months immediately preceding or during the eighteen (18) months immediately following a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in Section 4.5.4 of this Agreement), the vesting of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards

granted to Executive shall be fully accelerated such that on the effective date of such termination (or if later, the date of the Change in Control) one hundred percent (100%) of any Time-Based Vesting Equity Awards granted to Executive prior to such termination shall be fully vested and immediately exercisable, if applicable, by the Executive. Treatment of any performance based vesting equity awards granted to Executive will in all cases be governed solely by the terms of the equity award plan and/or agreement under which they were granted and will not be eligible to accelerate vesting pursuant to the foregoing provision

(iii) Release and Waiver. Any equity vesting acceleration pursuant to this Section 4.4.4 shall be conditioned upon and subject to the Executive’s delivery to the Company of a fully effective Release in accordance with the terms specified by Section 4.4.3 hereof and such vesting acceleration benefit shall be in addition to the benefits provided by Section 4.4.3 hereof.

4.5 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

4.5.1 Complete Disability. “Complete Disability” shall mean the inability of the Executive to perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, whether with or without reasonable accommodation, because the Executive has become permanently disabled within the meaning of any policy of disability income insurance covering employees of the Company then in force. In the event the Company has no policy of disability income insurance covering employees of the Company in force when the Executive becomes disabled, the term “Complete Disability” shall mean the inability of the Executive to perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, whether with or without reasonable accommodation, by reason of any incapacity, physical or mental, which the Board, based upon medical advice or an opinion provided by a licensed physician, determines to have incapacitated the Executive from satisfactorily performing all of the Executive’s usual services for the Company, with or without reasonable accommodation, for a period of at least one hundred eighty (180) days during any twelve (12) month period that need not be consecutive.

4.5.2 Good Reason. “Good Reason” for the Executive to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s consent:

(i) a material reduction in the Executive’s duties, authority, or responsibilities relative to the duties, authority, or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction, including by way of example, having the same title, duties, authority and responsibilities at a subsidiary level following a Change in Control;

(ii) the relocation of the Executive’s primary work location to a point more than fifty (50) miles from the Executive’s current work location set forth in Section 1.5 that requires a material increase in Executive’s one-way driving distance;

(iii) a material reduction by the Company of the Executive’s Base Salary or annual target Bonus opportunity, without the written consent of the Executive, as initially set forth herein or as the same may be increased from time to time pursuant to this Agreement; and

(iv) a material breach by the Company of Section 1.2 of this Agreement.

Provided, however that, such termination by the Executive shall only be deemed for Good Reason pursuant to the foregoing definition if (i) the Company is given written notice from the Executive within sixty (60) days following the first occurrence of the condition that he considers to constitute Good Reason describing the condition and the Company fails to satisfactorily remedy such condition within thirty (30) days following such written notice, and (ii) the Executive terminates employment within thirty (30) days following the end of the period within which the Company was entitled to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason but failed to do so.

4.5.3 Cause. “Cause” for the Company to terminate Executive’s employment hereunder shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events, as determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board or a committee designated by the Board:

(i) the Executive’s gross negligence or willful failure to substantially perform his duties and responsibilities to the Company or willful and deliberate violation of a Company policy;

(ii) the Executive’s conviction of a felony or the Executive’s commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement or dishonesty against the Company or involving moral turpitude that is likely to inflict or has inflicted material injury on the business of the Company, to be determined by the sole discretion of the Company;

(iii) the Executive’s unauthorized use or disclosure of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company or any other party that the Executive owes an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of the Executive’s relationship with the Company; and

(iv) the Executive’s willful and deliberate breach of the obligations under this Agreement that causes material injury to the business of the Company.

4.5.4 Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means: (i) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity and in which the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting stock immediately prior to such transaction own, immediately after such transaction, securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the entity surviving such transaction or, where the surviving entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another entity, the surviving entity’s

parent; (iii) a reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving entity but the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities of the surviving entity’s parent, cash or otherwise, and in which the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting stock immediately prior to such transaction own, immediately after such transaction, securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company or, where the Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another entity, the Company’s parent; or (iv) an acquisition by any person, entity or group (excluding any employee benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Company or subsidiary of the Company or other entity controlled by the Company) of the beneficial ownership of securities of the Company representing at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of Directors; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall apply to a sale of assets, merger or other transaction effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company.

4.6 Application of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any payments and benefits provided under this Agreement (the “Severance Benefits”) that constitute “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively “Section 409A”) shall not commence in connection with Executive’s termination of employment unless and until Executive has also incurred a “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (“Separation From Service”), unless the Company reasonably determines that such amounts may be provided to Executive without causing Executive to incur the additional 20% tax under Section 409A.

It is intended that each installment of the Severance Benefits payments provided for in this Agreement is a separate “payment” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i). For the avoidance of doubt, it is intended that payments of the Severance Benefits set forth in this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(9). However, if the Company (or, if applicable, the successor entity thereto) determines that the Severance Benefits constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A and Executive is, on the termination of service, a “specified employee” of the Company or any successor entity thereto, as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then, solely to the extent necessary to avoid the incurrence of the adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, the timing of the Severance Benefit payments shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of: (i) the date that is six months and one day after Executive’s Separation From Service, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death (such applicable date, the “Specified Employee Initial Payment Date”), the Company (or the successor entity thereto, as applicable) shall (A) pay to Executive a lump sum amount equal to the sum of the Severance Benefit payments that Executive would otherwise have received through the Specified Employee Initial Payment Date if the commencement of the payment of the Severance Benefits had not been so delayed pursuant to this Section and (B) commence paying the balance of the Severance Benefits in accordance with the applicable payment schedules set forth in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Executive shall receive the Severance Benefits described above, if and only if Executive duly executes and returns to the Company within the applicable time period set forth therein, but in no event more than forty-five days following Separation From Service, the Company’s standard form of release of claims in favor of the Company (attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A) (the “Release”) and permits the release of claims contained therein to become effective in accordance with its terms (such latest permitted date, the “Release Deadline”). If the severance benefits are not covered by one or more exemptions from the application of Section 409A and the Release could become effective in the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive separates from service, the Release will not be deemed effective any earlier than the Release Deadline. Notwithstanding any other payment schedule set forth in this Agreement, none of the Severance Benefits will be paid or otherwise delivered prior to the effective date (or deemed effective date) of the Release. Except to the extent that payments may be delayed until the Specified Employee Initial Payment Date pursuant to the preceding paragraph, on the first regular payroll pay day following the effective date of the Release, the Company will pay Executive the Severance Benefits Executive would otherwise have received under the Agreement on or prior to such date but for the delay in payment related to the effectiveness of the Release, with the balance of the Severance Benefits being paid as originally scheduled.

The severance benefits are intended to qualify for an exemption from application of Section 409A or comply with its requirements to the extent necessary to avoid adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted accordingly.

4.7 Application of Internal Revenue Code Section 280G. If any payment or benefit Executive would receive pursuant to a Change in Control from the Company or otherwise (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be equal to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total, of the Payment, whichever amount, after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the manner that results in the greatest economic benefit for Executive. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata.

In the event it is subsequently determined by the Internal Revenue Service that some portion of the Reduced Amount as determined pursuant to clause (x) in the preceding paragraph is subject to the Excise Tax, Executive agrees to promptly return to the Company a sufficient amount of the Payment so that no portion of the Reduced Amount is subject to the Excise Tax. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Reduced Amount is determined pursuant to clause (y) in the preceding paragraph, Executive will have no obligation to return any portion of the Payment pursuant to the preceding sentence.

Unless Executive and the Company agree on an alternative accounting firm, the accounting firm engaged by the Company for general tax compliance purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall perform the foregoing calculations. If the accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, the Company shall appoint a nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder.

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder to provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to Executive and the Company within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which Executive’s right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by Executive or the Company) or such other time as requested by Executive or the Company.

4.8 Indemnification Agreements. The Company and the Executive have previously entered into indemnification agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 and Exhibit B-2.

4.9 Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement. The Executive has previously executed the Company’s Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement the terms of which shall continue to govern the terms of Executive’s employment following the Effective Date, and a copy of which is attached as Exhibit C.

4.10 No Mitigation or Offset. The Executive shall not be required to seek or accept other employment, or otherwise to mitigate damages, as a condition to receipt of the Severance Benefits, and the Severance Benefits shall not be offset by any amounts received by the Executive from any other source, except to the extent that the Executive’s rights to the benefits described in Sections 4.4.3(i)(b) or 4.4.3(ii)(c), as applicable, are terminated by reason of the Executive obtaining full-time employment with another company or business entity which offers comparable health insurance coverage.

This Agreement shall be binding upon the Executive and the Company and inure to the benefit of the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, executors, personal representatives, assigns, administrators and legal representatives. Because of the unique

and personal nature of the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor obligations under this Agreement shall be assignable by the Executive. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, provided that the Agreement may only be assigned to an acquirer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. Any such successor of the Company will be deemed substituted for the Company under the terms of this Agreement for all purposes. For this purpose, “successor” means any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company.

For the purposes of this Agreement, notices, demands, and all other forms of communication provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or (unless otherwise specified) mailed by registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by confirmed facsimile, addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notices of address shall be effective only upon receipt, as follows:

Either party may change its address for notices by giving written notice to the other party in the manner specified in this section.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to any conflicts of law principals thereof that would call for the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal court in the Northern District of Illinois, and state courts located in the state of Illinois, county of ▇▇▇▇. Nothing in this Section 7 limits the rights of the parties to seek appeal of a decision of an Illinois court outside of Illinois that has proper jurisdiction over the decision of a court sitting in Illinois.

This Agreement, including Exhibit A, Exhibit B-1, Exhibit B-2 and Exhibit C contains the complete, final and exclusive agreement of the parties relating to the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment and the termination of Executive’s employment, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous oral and written employment agreements or arrangements between the parties, including but not limited to the Prior Agreement.

No term, covenant or condition of this Agreement or any breach thereof shall be deemed waived, except with the written consent of the party against whom the wavier is claimed, and any waiver or any such term, covenant, condition or breach shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other term, covenant, condition or breach.

The finding by a court of competent jurisdiction of the unenforceability, invalidity or illegality of any provision of this Agreement shall not render any other provision of this Agreement unenforceable, invalid or illegal. Such court shall have the authority to modify or replace the invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision, which most accurately represents the parties’ intention with respect to the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal term or provision.

The headings set forth in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not be used in interpreting this Agreement. This Agreement has been drafted and negotiated by legal counsel representing the Company and the Executive. The parties acknowledge that each party and its counsel has reviewed and revised, or had an opportunity to review and revise, this Agreement, and any rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.

The parties agree that facsimile signatures shall have the same force and effect as original signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

The provisions of this Agreement, and of all other agreements referenced herein, shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and of the Executive’s employment by the Company for any reason, to the extent necessary to enable the parties to enforce their respective rights hereunder.

RELEASE AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS

In consideration of the payments and other benefits set forth in Section 4.4 of the Executive Employment Agreement dated May 1, 2019, (the “Employment Agreement”), to which this form is attached, I, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, hereby furnish Horizon Pharma, Inc. and Horizon Pharma USA, Inc. (together the “Company”), with the following release and waiver (“Release and Waiver”).

In exchange for the consideration provided to me by the Employment Agreement that I am not otherwise entitled to receive, I hereby generally and completely release the Company and its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, parent and subsidiary entities, insurers, Affiliates, and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations, both known and unknown, that arise out of or are in any way related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring relating to my employment or the termination thereof prior to my signing this Release and Waiver. This general release includes, but is not limited to: (1) all claims arising out of or in any way related to my employment with the Company or the termination of that employment; (2) all claims related to my compensation or benefits from the Company, including, but not limited to, salary, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests in the Company; (3) all claims for breach of contract, wrongful termination, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (4) all tort claims, including, but not limited to, claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in violation of public policy; and (5) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including, but not limited to, claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys’ fees, or other claims arising under the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (as amended) (“ADEA”), the Illinois Human Rights Act, the Illinois Equal Pay Act, the Illinois Religious Freedom Restoration Act, and the Illinois Genetic Information Privacy Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Release and Waiver, shall not release or waive my rights: to indemnification under the articles and bylaws of the Company, any and all indemnification agreements, or applicable law; to payments under Sections of the Employment Agreement; under any provision of the Employment Agreement that survives the termination of that agreement; under any applicable workers’ compensation statute; under any option, restricted share or other agreement concerning any equity interest in the Company; as a shareholder of the Company or any other right that is not waivable under applicable law.

I acknowledge that, among other rights, I am waiving and releasing any rights I may have under ADEA, that this Release and Waiver is knowing and voluntary, and that the consideration given for this Release and Waiver is in addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled as an executive of the Company. If I am 40 years of age or older upon execution of this Release and Waiver, I further acknowledge that I have been advised, as required by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, that: (a) the release

and waiver granted herein does not relate to claims under the ADEA which may arise after this Release and Waiver is executed; (b) I should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release and Waiver; and (c) I have twenty-one (21) days from the date of termination of my employment with the Company in which to consider this Release and Waiver (although I may choose voluntarily to execute this Release and Waiver earlier); (d) I have seven (7) days following the execution of this Release and Waiver to revoke my consent to this Release and Waiver; and (e) this Release and Waiver shall not be effective until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired unexercised. If I am less than 40 years of age upon execution of this Release and Waiver, I acknowledge that I have the right to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release and Waiver (although I may choose voluntarily not to do so); and (c) I have five (5) days from the date of termination of my employment with the Company in which to consider this Release and Waiver (although I may choose voluntarily to execute this Release and Waiver earlier).

I acknowledge my continuing obligations under my Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement dated May 14, 2012. Pursuant to the Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement I understand that among other things, I must not use or disclose any confidential or proprietary information of the Company and I must immediately return all Company property and documents (including all embodiments of proprietary information) and all copies thereof in my possession or control. I understand and agree that my right to the payments and other benefits I am receiving in exchange for my agreement to the terms of this Release and Waiver is contingent upon my continued compliance with my Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement.

This Release and Waiver, including my Confidential Information and Inventions Agreement dated May 14, 2012, constitutes the complete, final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between the Company and me with regard to the subject matter hereof. I am not relying on any promise or representation by the Company that is not expressly stated herein. This Release and Waiver may only be modified by a writing signed by both me and a duly authorized officer of the Company.
