12.Notice. All notices under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be deemed given when personally delivered or sent via email, or three (3) days after being sent by prepaid certified or registered mail to the address of the party to be noticed as set forth herein or such other address as such party last provided to the other by written notice.
13.Lobbying. Consultant represents and warrants that, should the Services require, in Consultant’s best judgment, either registration and reporting under Federal Lobbying Disclosure Act (the “LDA”), and/or any other actions required to comply with legal requirements of any other Federal, state, or other requirements relating to lobbying, political contributions, gift rules, or otherwise relating to interaction with any government, Consultant will comply with any such requirements and will notify Company in advance of any such registration, reports, or other required actions. Consultant shall be solely responsible for meeting all registration and reporting requirements under the LDA and/or any other applicable law or regulation. Consultant is independently responsible for determining whether the work provided to Company by Consultant requires any registration, reporting, or other compliance actions, and hereby agrees to indemnify, and hold harmless, Company, from any fines, damages, penalties, or other adverse legal consequences resulting from any failure by Consultant to comply with any such requirements.
14.Dispute Resolution. Any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement (“Claim”) that cannot be resolved by the Parties within a period of sixty (60) days after written notice of a Claim has been given by one Party hereunder to the other (the last day of such sixty (60) day period being herein referred to as the “Arbitration Date”), shall be finally and exclusively settled by arbitration in San Francisco, California, United States, using the English language in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect, by one or more commercial arbitrator(s), who may or may not be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators. If the Parties cannot agree upon the number and identity of the arbitrators within fifteen (15) days following the Arbitration Date, then a single arbitrator shall be selected on an expedited basis in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. Any arbitrator(s) selected shall have substantial experience in resolving complex commercial contract and securities-related disputes. Any Claim will be arbitrated on an individual basis. There is no right or authority for any Claim to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving Claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of other actual or potential security holders of Company or others similarly situated. The arbitrator(s)’ authority is limited solely to the applicable Claim. An arbitration award and any judgment confirming it for a specific Claim will apply only to such Claim and cannot be used for any other Claim except to enforce the award. Any emergency relief, preliminary injunctive relief, and/or expedition related to a Claim must be sought in the arbitral forum under the applicable JAMS Rules, except in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by Consultant, which the Parties agree shall cause Company irreparable harm which may not be adequately compensable by money damages and which Company shall be entitled to seek (in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Company including money damages) specific performance, injunction, or other preliminary or equitable relief, without having to prove irreparable harm or actual damages, from any court with jurisdiction over the matter. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant injunctive relief and specific performance and to allocate between the Parties the fees and costs of arbitration (including arbitrator fees, filing fees, administrative fees, and all other fees and costs related to the arbitration) in such equitable manner as the arbitrator(s) may determine. The prevailing Party in the arbitration shall be entitled to receive reimbursement of its reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, arbitration fees and costs, and all other fees and costs) incurred in connection therewith. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered and enforced exclusively in the United States Federal Courts located in the Northern District of California or, if Company determines that jurisdiction is not proper in such Federal Courts, California Superior Court in the County of Santa Clara. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been made in, and shall be construed pursuant to the laws of the State of California and the United States, without regard to conflicts of law provisions thereof. Consultant agrees to waive any claim that is not subject to the jurisdiction of the arbitral forum (or, in the case of entering or enforcement of an arbitral award, the above-named courts), or that its property is
4

exempt or immune from attachment or execution, and Consultant further waives to the fullest extent permitted by law its right to a trial by jury.
15.Representations and Warranties. Consultant shall, in consideration for and as a condition to the effectiveness of this Agreement, execute and deliver to Company on the date hereof the Representations and Warranties in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
16.Books and Records. Consultant agrees that Company or any of its duly authorized representatives shall, during the term of this Agreement and for three years after final payment has been made under this Agreement, have access to and the right to inspect and examine, upon reasonable notice and during business hours, any relevant books, documents, papers, and records (“Books and Records”) of Consultant involving transactions related to this Agreement, including Books and Records relevant to the Representations and Warranties set forth in Exhibit B.
17.No Insider Trading. During the Term, Consultant agrees to comply with Company’s Insider Trading Policy, including the restrictions against short sales in Company securities, prohibitions in engaging in derivatives (including options) or hedging transactions, restrictions against pledging or using Company securities as collateral for loans, and open trading window requirements for trading. During the Term, Consultant may only engage in transactions involving Company securities during an open trading window, which will typically open at the start of the second full trading day following the date the Company’s quarterly or year-end financial results are publicly disclosed and continue through the twelfth day of the third month of the quarter, subject to the Company’s determination in its sole discretion regarding the actual details of each such open trading window. Whether during the Term or otherwise, Consultant may never, directly or indirectly through others, engage in or facilitate any transaction involving Company’s (or any other company’s) securities while he or she has or is aware of any material nonpublic information, or disclose material nonpublic information to any third parties.
18.Miscellaneous. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights. No changes or modifications or waivers to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both Parties. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement and any related exhibits, appendices, annexes or attachments may be executed electronically and/or in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
5

19.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with its exhibits, the Equity Plan (as defined in Exhibit A) and the RSU Award Agreement (as defined in Exhibit A), constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter herein and supersedes all prior written and oral agreements, discussions, or representations between the Parties. Consultant represents and warrants that Consultant is not relying on any statement or representation not contained in this Agreement. To the extent any terms set forth in any exhibit or schedule conflict with the terms set forth in this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control unless otherwise expressly set forth and agreed by the Parties in such exhibit or schedule.

Prior to the Effective Date, the Board amended the RSU Award Agreement to provide that the RSU Award would continue to vest pursuant to Consultant’s continued status as a “Service Provider” (as defined in the Equity Plan).
