1.APPLICABILITY TO PAST ACTIVITIES

Company Confidential Information includes both information disclosed by the Company to me, and information developed or learned by me during the course of my employment with Company. Company Confidential Information also includes all information of which the unauthorized disclosure could be detrimental to the interests of Company, whether or not such information is identified as Company Confidential Information. By example, and without limitation, Company Confidential Information includes any and all non-public information that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products, research or development of the Company, or to the Company’s technical data, trade secrets, or know-how, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, or other information regarding the Company’s products or services and markets therefor, pricing information, profitability analyses, customer lists and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company on which I called or with which I may become acquainted during the term of my employment), customer preferences, software, developments, inventions, discoveries, ideas, processes, formulas, technology, designs,

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company Confidential Information shall not include any such information which I can establish (i) was publicly known or made generally available prior to the time of disclosure by Company to me; (ii) becomes publicly known or made generally available after disclosure by Company to me through no wrongful action or omission by me; or (iii) is in my rightful possession, without confidentiality obligations, at the time of disclosure by Company as shown by my then-contemporaneous written records; provided that any combination of individual items of information shall not be deemed to be within any of the foregoing exceptions merely because one or more of the individual items are within such exception, unless the combination as a whole is within such exception. I understand that nothing in this Agreement is intended to limit employees’ rights to discuss the terms, wages, and working conditions of their employment, as protected by applicable law.

B.Nonuse and Nondisclosure. I agree that during and after my employment with the Company, I will hold in the strictest confidence, and take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of Company Confidential Information, and I will not (i) use the Company Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever other than for the benefit of the Company in the course of my employment, or (ii) disclose the Company Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written authorization of the President, CEO, or the Board of Directors of the Company. Prior to disclosure when compelled by applicable law; I shall provide prior written notice to the President, CEO, and General Counsel of Figure (as applicable). I agree that I obtain no title to any Company Confidential Information, and that as between Company and myself, Figure retains all Company Confidential Information as the sole property of Figure I understand that my unauthorized use or disclosure of Company Confidential Information during my employment may lead to disciplinary action, up to and including immediate termination and legal action by the Company. I understand that my obligations under this Section 3.B shall continue after termination of my employment. I understand that I am required to return all Company Confidential Information to Figure when my employment ends.

D.Third Party Information. I recognize that the Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties associated with the Company, e.g., the Company’s customers, suppliers, licensors, licensees, partners, or collaborators (“Associated Third Parties”), their confidential or proprietary information (“Associated Third Party Confidential Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such Associated Third Party Confidential Information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. By way of example, Associated Third Party Confidential Information may include the habits or practices of Associated Third Parties, the technology of Associated Third Parties, requirements of Associated Third Parties, and information related to the business conducted between the Company and such Associated Third Parties. I agree at all times during my employment with the Company and thereafter, that I owe the Company and its Associated Third Parties a duty to hold all such Associated Third Party Confidential Information in the strictest confidence, and not to use it or to disclose it to any person, firm, corporation, or other third party except as necessary in carrying out my work for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such Associated Third Parties. I further agree to comply with any and all Company policies and guidelines that may be adopted from time to time regarding Associated Third Parties and Associated Third Party Confidential Information.

The following are potentially compromising situations that must be avoided:
1.Revealing confidential information to outsiders or misusing confidential information. Unauthorized divulging of information is a violation of this policy whether or not for personal gain and whether or not harm to the Company is intended. (The Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement elaborates on this principle and is a binding agreement.)

2.Accepting or offering substantial gifts, excessive entertainment, favors, or payments that may be deemed to constitute undue influence or otherwise be improper or embarrassing to the Company.
3.Participating in civic or professional organizations that might involve divulging confidential information of the Company.

5.Initiating or approving any form of personal or social harassment of employees.

6.Investing or holding outside directorship in suppliers, customers, or competing companies, including financial speculations, where such investment or directorship might influence in any manner a decision or course of action of the Company.
7.Borrowing from or lending to employees, customers, or suppliers.

12.Improperly using or authorizing the use of any inventions that are the subject of patent claims of any other person or entity.

13.Engaging in any conduct that is not in the best interest of the Company.
Each officer, employee, and independent contractor must take every necessary action to ensure compliance with these guidelines and to bring problem areas to the attention of higher management for review. Violations of this conflict of interest policy may result in discharge without warning. I understand that nothing in this Agreement is intended to limit employees’ rights to discuss the terms, wages, and working conditions of their employment, as protected by applicable law.

In consideration of my employment or my continued employment with the Company, its promise to arbitrate all employment-related disputes, and my receipt of the compensation, pay raises, and other benefits paid to me by the Company, at present and in the future, I agree that any and all controversies, claims, or disputes with the Company (including, without limitation, any employee, officer, director, shareholder, or benefit plan of the Company, in their capacity as such or otherwise), arising out of, relating to, or resulting from my employment with the Company or the termination of my employment with the Company, including any breach of this Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate (this “Arbitration Agreement”), shall be subject to binding arbitration Both parties agree that the Company is engaged in interstate commerce and that this Arbitration Agreement is enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.
§1 et seq. (the “FAA”). If the FAA is found not to apply, then this Arbitration Agreement is enforceable under the laws of the state in which I was assigned to work for Figure at the time I received this Arbitration Agreement. However, both parties agree that there will be no right to bring any dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement as a class or collective action, as specified in Paragraph 3 below.
1.Parties: The Parties involved in this Agreement are Figure, its officers, directors, agents, employees, parents, subsidiaries, and affiliated entities (collectively, “Figure”), and myself (“Employee”). Figure and Employee are collectively referred to herein as the Parties.

2.Claims Covered by this Agreement: To the extent authorized by law, the Parties mutually agree to the resolution by binding arbitration of all claims or causes of action that the Employee may have against Figure, or Figure against Employee (collectively "claims") arising out of the employment relationship or the termination of the employment relationship. The claims covered by this Agreement include, but are not limited to, claims for breach of any contract or covenant (express or implied); tort claims; claims for discrimination (including, but not limited to, race, sex, gender, sexual harassment, or any type of unlawful harassment, religion, national origin, age, marital status, medical condition, disability or sexual orientation); claims for wrongful termination in violation of public policy; claims for retaliation; and, claims for violation of any law, statute, regulation or ordinance, including, but not limited to, all claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1969, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Fair Employment & Housing Act, the California Wage Orders and the California Labor Code (excepting only representative claims under PAGA), and the Fair Labor Standards Act. All claims for injunctive and/or other equitable relief shall be covered by this Agreement. However, the Parties retain the right to seek provisional injunctive relief in Court where appropriate to protect the Parties’ rights pending arbitration.

Nothing in this Agreement precludes Employee from filing a charge or from participating in an administrative investigation of a charge before an appropriate government agency such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the National Labor Relations Board or similar state agency. Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement alters any obligation or prerequisite to exhaust administrative remedies before asserting a claim in arbitration.


3.Claims Not Covered by the Agreement: This Agreement does not cover claims Employee may have for workers' compensation, unemployment compensation benefits, or any other claims found not subject to mandatory arbitration by governing law.
Additionally, Figure and Employee agree that, to the full extent permitted by law, neither the Employee nor Figure shall have a right to: (a) arbitrate any claim on a class, collective, or purported representative basis, on behalf of any of Figure’s workers, employees, applicants or other persons similarly situated; (b) join or consolidate in any arbitration claims brought by or against another worker, employee, applicant or Figure, unless agreed to in writing by all parties; (c) litigate any claims in court or to have a jury trial on any claims covered by this Agreement; and/or (d) participate as a member of any class of claimants in an action in a court of law pertaining to any claims encompassed by this Agreement. In no circumstance shall an arbitrator have authority to preside over any claim on a collective, representative, or class basis. No remedies that would otherwise be available to the Parties individually in a court of law are being forfeited under this Agreement.




In the event of a dispute between the parties that is determined to involve arbitrable claims and non-arbitrable claims, Figure and Employee agree that the arbitrable claims shall be resolved first in arbitration and the non-arbitrable claims stayed pending completion of the arbitration. Any gateway disputes regarding the enforceability of this Agreement or whether a particular claim is subject to this Agreement shall be resolved by a court of law.

4.Required Notice of All Claims: The party seeking to raise any claim(s) under this Agreement must file and serve a demand for arbitration describing the nature of the claims asserted and the facts upon which those claims are based, within the statute of limitations period applicable to the claim(s). The Parties may mutually agree to participate in mediation in an effort to resolve the dispute prior to arbitration. If the Parties agree to mediate prior to a demand for arbitration being filed, the Parties agree that the statute of limitations shall be tolled pending completion of the mediation.
Any Notice of Claim shall be provided to Figure at the following address: Figure
Attn: Douglas Burns, Chief People Officer
650 California Street, Suite 2700 San Francisco, CA 94108

Any Notice of Claim shall be provided to Employee at the most updated address contained in Employee’s personnel file, unless otherwise designated by Employee.


5.Arbitration Procedures:

(a)Applicable Rules

Any arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted pursuant to the Employment Arbitration Rules of JAMS (“JAMS Rules”). These Rules are available for review on JAMS’ website at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration/. A copy will also be provided upon request to Human Resources. The arbitration shall take place at the JAMS office in the metropolitan area where the Employee works or worked for Figure, unless the Parties mutually agree to conduct the arbitration elsewhere. If there is any discrepancy between the JAMS Rules and this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail.
(b)Selection of Neutral Arbitrator and Scope of Authority

The arbitrator shall be a neutral arbitrator, selected by the agreement of the parties, who has previous experience arbitrating California employment law disputes. If the parties cannot agree on a neutral arbitrator, Employee and Figure will use the strike and ranking method provided for under JAMS rules.

The interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitrator shall apply the applicable statute of limitations to all claims covered under this Agreement. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive state or federal law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) as applicable to the claim(s) asserted that would otherwise be available in a court of law. Furthermore, the parties shall have the right to file dispositive motions such as motions for summary judgment or summary adjudication.

(c)Discovery
The Parties agree that reasonable discovery is essential to the just resolution of any claims which may be covered by this Agreement. Accordingly, nothing in this Agreement or in the JAMS Rules shall be interpreted to limit the Parties' rights to reasonable discovery. Rather, reasonable discovery shall be allowed that is sufficient to ensure the adequate arbitration of any claims covered by this Agreement. Generally, the Parties agree that reasonable discovery means up to three depositions per side, one set of requests for production of documents with up to 35 requests, and one set of interrogatories with up to 25 requests. In the event that the Parties believe this scope of discovery is inadequate, the Parties shall meet and confer and try to reach agreement on the scope of discovery and the arbitrator shall have discretion to




resolve any disagreement concerning the scope of discovery and to allow discovery determined by the arbitrator to be reasonably necessary to the just resolution of the dispute considering the streamlined nature and purpose of arbitration.
(d)Written Opinion and Award

The neutral arbitrator shall issue a written opinion and award, which shall be signed and dated. The arbitrator's decision regarding the claims shall be final and binding upon the Parties. The arbitrator's award shall be enforceable in any court having proper jurisdiction. The Parties' appeal rights are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and, where applicable, the California Arbitration Act.
(e)Arbitration Fees and Costs

Employee will be required to pay a reasonable cost to initiate the arbitration equal to what Employee would be charged as a first appearance fee in state court in the county where the Employee works/worked for Figure. Figure shall pay all fees and costs that are unique to the arbitration process, including the arbitrator's fees. The arbitration hearing is not required to be stenographically recorded, but may be at the option of a party. The party requesting the arbitration hearing to be stenographically recorded is responsible for paying for the court reporter's service.

Each party may be represented by an attorney in the arbitration. Except as set forth above, each party shall pay its own attorneys' fees and costs. If, however, any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys' fees and costs, or if there is a written agreement providing for attorneys' fees and costs, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees and costs to the prevailing party in accordance with applicable law.
6.Entire Agreement: This is the complete agreement of the Parties on the subject of arbitration of disputes (except for any arbitration agreement that may exist in connection with any pension or benefit plan). This Agreement supersedes any prior or contemporaneous oral or written understanding on the subject. No party is relying on any promises, oral or written, on the subject of the effect, enforceability, or meaning of this Agreement, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. Once executed, this Agreement constitutes a binding contract between the Parties. Figure retains the right to amend, modify, or terminate this Agreement, subject to an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. At least 30 days’ advance written notice of any amendment, modification, or termination shall be provided to current employees, and no such amendment, modification, or termination shall apply to disputes of which Figure has knowledge prior to the amendment, modification, or termination.
7.Construction of Agreement: If any provision of this Agreement is adjudged to be void, or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, such a decision shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement. In such a case, any invalid provision shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement enforced and/or reformed to the extent necessary to be enforceable and to ensure that the resolution of any and all conflicts between the Parties be resolved by neutral, binding arbitration. However, in no event shall the arbitrator have authority to preside over any claims brought on a class, collective, or representative basis.

8.Waiver of Trial By Jury: The Parties understand and fully agree that by entering into this Agreement providing for binding arbitration, they are giving up their constitutional right to have a trial by jury as to claims covered by this Agreement, and are giving up their normal rights of appeal following the rendering of a decision except to the extent that the Federal Arbitration Act or other applicable law provides for judicial review of arbitration proceedings. The Parties anticipate that by entering this Agreement they will gain the benefits of a speedy, impartial dispute resolution procedure.

9.Not an Employment Contract: This Agreement is not, and shall not be construed to create, a separate contract of employment, express or implied, nor shall this Agreement be construed in any way to change the relationship between Figure and Employee from that of at-will employment.
