The Claims released herein include, but are not limited to: (1) all claims arising out of or in any way related to my service or employment relationship with any of the Releasees or the termination of that relationship; (2) all claims related to my compensation or benefits from the any of the Releasees, including salary, bonuses, commissions, paid time off, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests in Parent, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the "Group Entities"); (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 claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in violation of public policy; and (5) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including (without limitation) claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys' fees, and other claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended (the "ADEA"); Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Equal Pay Act; the Civil Rights Act of 1866; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended; the False Claims Act, as amended; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, as amended; the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended; the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002; the Worker Adjustment Notification and Retraining Act; the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination; the New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act; the New Jersey Family Leave Act; the New Jersey Wage Payment Law;

EXHIBIT A

Severance Benefits

Parent will provide me with the following Severance Benefits, subject to my execution and non revocation of the Release Agreement through the Effective Date. By signing the Release Agreement, I agree that the Severance Benefits set forth below represent all amounts and benefits owed to me under Section 4.4.2 of the Employment Agreement, and that I shall not be paid or provided any Severance Benefits if I revoke the Release Agreement before the Effective Date.

Parent will pay me an amount equal to $795,000 (which represents 1.5 times my base salary as in effect immediately before the Termination Date), which will be paid in equal installments on Parent's normal payroll dates over a period of 18 months following the Termination Date, with the first such installment to occur on the first payroll date following the Effective Date, and inclusive of any installments that would have been paid had the Release Agreement been immediately effective and irrevocable on the Termination Date. Each such payment will be deemed to be a separate payment under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

Parent will pay me a pro-rated portion of my incentive bonus under Parent's annual incentive program for the year 2020 (which, before applying the pro-ration, is targeted at

$265,000, equal to 50% of my base salary as in effect immediately before the Termination Date), based on the number of days I served Parent during 2020 and actual performance of the corporate goals for such incentive bonus, inclusive of any adjustments made by the Board that are applied to all other executive participants in the annual incentive program, such pro-rated incentive bonus to be paid in a lump sum in the year 2021 at the same time related bonuses are paid to executives who continue to be employed by Parent.

During the period commencing on the Termination Date and ending on the 18-month anniversary of the Termination Date, or, if earlier, the date on which I become eligible for comparable replacement coverage under a subsequent employer' s group health plan (in any case, the "COBRA Period"), subject to my valid election to continue healthcare coverage under Section 4980B of the Code and the regulations thereunder, Parent shall, in its sole discretion, either (A) continue to provide to me and my dependents, at Parent' s sole expense, or (B) reimburse me and my dependents for coverage under its group health plan (if any) at the same levels in effect on the Termination Date; provided, however, that if (1) any plan pursuant to which such benefits are provided is not, or ceases prior to the expiration of the continuation coverage period to be, exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code under Treasury Regulation Section l .409A-l(a)(5), (2) Parent is otherwise unable to continue to cover me or my dependents under its group health plans, or (3) Parent cannot provide the benefit without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then, in any such case, an amount equal to each remaining subsidy shall thereafter be paid to me in substantially equal monthly installments over the COBRA Period (or remaining

portion thereof).

Outplacement services will be provided to me by a reputable national outplacement service provider for up to 12 months following the Termination Date.
