RESOLUTION</font>.&#160;&#160;The Parties hereby agree that any disagreement,
claim or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement or

from the Company shall be settled exclusively by arbitration before a single
arbitrator in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association (the "Rules"), <font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline">provided</font>, that the

injunctive relief may be sought by either Party pursuant to Section 1281.8 of
the California Code of Civil Procedure.&#160;&#160;The arbitration shall take
place in Palo Alto, California or at another location agreed to by the
Parties.&#160;&#160;The award of the arbitrator with respect to such
disagreement, claim or controversy shall be in writing with sufficient
explanation to allow for such meaningful judicial review as permitted by law,
and that such decision shall be enforceable in any court of competent
jurisdiction and shall be binding on the Parties.&#160;&#160;The remedies
available in arbitration shall be identical to those allowed at
law.&#160;&#160;The arbitrator shall be entitled to award reasonable attorneys'
fees to the prevailing party in any arbitration or judicial action under this
Agreement, consistent with applicable law.&#160;&#160;The Company and Employee
each shall pay its or his own attorneys' fees and costs in any such arbitration,
<font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline">provided</font> that,
the Company shall pay for any costs, including the arbitrator's fee, that
Employee would not have otherwise incurred if the dispute was adjudicated in a
court of law, rather than through arbitration</font></div>
