appointment until the Retirement Date to ensure a successful transition of his
duties.

From the date of the Transition Agreement through the Retirement Date, Mr.

(equal to two-thirds of the full annual target amount) based on the achievement
of performance goals set forth in the Company's 2023 bonus plan, payable when
such annual bonuses are paid to other Company executives; and (ii) an extended
period of 12 months from the Retirement Date to exercise any outstanding vested
nonstatutory stock options.

Except as otherwise set forth in the Transition Agreement, all other terms and
conditions of the Employment Agreement between the Company and Mr. Sorenson,
dated March 8, 2021 (the "Employment Agreement"), shall remain in full force and
effect.
