E. WHEREAS, as a result of Jenkins’ termination of employment without Cause by Company on the Effective Date, he is entitled to his Accrued Benefits (as defined in the Employment Agreement) and to the severance payments described in Section 5(c) of the Employment Agreement (collectively, “Severance Payment”).

G. WHEREAS, in consideration of Jenkins agreeing to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and Release, Company is willing to provide Jenkins with certain payments and benefits, including the Severance Payment and other additional benefits described below, pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Employment Agreement and as otherwise set forth below.


NOW THEREFORE, Company and Jenkins, in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, agree as follows:

1. Termination and Resignations. In connection with his termination of employment without Cause by Company on the Effective Date, on the Effective Date, Jenkins hereby voluntarily resigns as (a) a director of the Company and of any and all plans, subsidiaries and affiliates thereof and (b) an officer of any and all plans, subsidiaries and affiliates of Company, in each case above, effective for all purposes as of the Effective Date. Company hereby accepts such resignations effective for all purposes as of the Effective Date. Jenkins agrees not to reapply for employment with Company or any subsidiary thereof. In connection with his resignation as a director of Company, Jenkins agrees that he is not doing so as a result of any disagreement with Company, and he will not provide Company with any written correspondence that would require Company to publicly disclose any such circumstance pursuant to a Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

2. [Intentionally Omitted.]

3. Severance Payments and Other Additional Benefits. Subject to Jenkins’ compliance with this Agreement and Release and the continuing provisions of the Employment Agreement, Intellectual Property Agreement and the Equity Grant Agreements applicable to Jenkins:

A. Severance Payment. As Severance Payment to Jenkins hereunder and under his Employment Agreement, Company will pay Jenkins an aggregate amount of $633,421, less required withholdings, ratably over the course of the next eighteen (18) months starting with the first payment to be made on or shortly after May 1, 2025. In accordance with the Employment Agreement, the Severance Payment was calculated as follows: (i) $573,750, which is Jenkins’ current annual base salary of $382,500 multiplied by Jenkins’ pre-change of control severance multiplier of 1.5, plus (ii) $45,000, which is Jenkins’ average annual bonuses earned over the past three fiscal years (e.g., fiscal 2023, 2024 and 2025) multiplied by his pre-change of control severance multiplier of 1.5 (it being acknowledged and agreed that such calculation accounted for the fact that Jenkins received a bonus in fiscal year 2024 in the amount of $45,000, but did not receive a bonus in either fiscal year 2025 or 2023), plus (iii) $14,671, which is Jenkins’ fiscal 2026 annual target bonus of one-hundred percent (100%) of his current annual base salary of $382,500 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed during Company’s fiscal 2026 through the Effective Date (14 days) and the denominator of which is 365. Jenkins has no other claims with respect thereto and hereby fully and completely releases Company from all such claims.

B. Treatment of Restricted Stock Awards, Performance Share Awards and Restricted Cash Awards.
