Section 409A.
(a)
The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Release comply with, or be exempt from Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”), and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Release shall be interpreted to be in compliance with such intention. To the extent that any provision in this Release is ambiguous as to its compliance with or exemption from Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner that no payments payable under this Release shall be subject to an “additional tax” as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. Accordingly, the Severance Benefits payable under Section 2(b) shall be paid no later than the later of: (A) the fifteenth (15 th) day of the third month following Executive’s first taxable year in which such severance benefit is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, and (B) the fifteenth (15 th) day of the third month following first taxable year of the Company in which such severance benefit is no longer subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, as determined in accordance with Code Section 409A and any Treasury Regulations and other guidance issued thereunder. To the extent applicable, this Release shall be interpreted in accordance with Code Section 409A and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder. Any right to a series of installment payments pursuant to this Release is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.
(b)
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Release, to the extent that the payments or benefits under this Release are “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A or are intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), then, to the extent required by Code Section 409A or to satisfy such exception, no amount shall be payable to Executive unless Executive’s termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (“Separation from Service”). If Executive is a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code), as determined by the Company in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, on the date of Executive’s Separation from Service, to the extent that the payments or benefits under this Release are subject to Section 409A of the Code and the delayed payment or distribution of all or any portion of such amounts to which Executive is entitled under this Release is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then such portion deferred pursuant to this Section 16(b) shall be paid or distributed to Executive in a lump sum on the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6)-months following Executive’s Separation from Service, (ii) the date of Executive’s death or (iii) the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code. Any remaining payments due under this Release shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.
(c)
To the extent that any payments or reimbursements provided to Executive under this Release are deemed to constitute compensation to Executive to which Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) would apply, such amounts shall be paid or reimbursed reasonably promptly, but not later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of any such payments eligible for reimbursement in one year shall not affect the payments or expenses that are eligible for payment or reimbursement in any other taxable year, and Executive’s right to such payments or reimbursement of any such expenses shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.
(d)
Executive agrees and acknowledges that the Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the application of Section 409A and other tax consequences to any payments hereunder and, by the acceptance of any such payments, Executive agrees to accept the potential application of Section 409A and the other tax consequences of any payments made hereunder. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any taxes, penalties or interest that may be imposed on Executive pursuant to Section 409A or under any other similar provision of state tax law, including but not limited to, damages for failing to comply with Section 409A and/or any other similar provision of state tax law.
17.
Successors and Assigns. The rights of the Company under this Release may, without the consent of Executive, be assigned by the Company, in its sole and unfettered discretion, to any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly, or indirectly, acquires all or

9

substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and to agree to perform this Release in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; provided, however, that no such assumption shall relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that the failure of any such successor to so assume this Releases hall constitute a material breach of this Release. As used in this Release, the “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Release by operation of law or otherwise. Executive shall not be entitled to assign any of Executive’s rights or obligations under this Release, other than the laws of descent and distribution. This Release shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees.
18.
Severability. In the event any provision of this Release is found to be unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to allow enforceability of the provision as so limited, it being intended that the parties shall receive the benefit contemplated herein to the fullest extent permitted by law. If a deemed modification is not satisfactory in the judgment of such arbitrator or court, the unenforceable provision shall be deemed deleted, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby.
19.
Governing Law and Venue. This Release will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States of America and the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed wholly within such State, and without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof. Any suit brought hereon shall be brought in the state or federal courts sitting in San Diego County, California, the Parties hereby waiving any claim or defense that such forum is not convenient or proper. Each party hereby agrees that any such court shall have in personam jurisdiction over it and consents to service of process in any manner authorized by California law.
20.

This Release, together with the Proprietary Information Agreement, that certain Indemnification Agreement executed by Executive in connection with her employment with the Company and attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Indemnification Agreement”), the Emeritus Status Letter, and the other agreements referenced herein and therein, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein and supersedes all prior or simultaneous representations, discussions, negotiations and agreements, whether written or oral, including, without limitation, any offer letter with the Company, the Severance Agreement (which is, for the avoidance of doubt, hereby terminated as of the Effective Date).

No oral waiver, amendment or modification will be effective under any circumstances whatsoever.
