On December 22, 2023, the Company announced the departure of John W. Sobba, its Senior Vice President and General Counsel. In connection with his separation from service, the Company and Mr. Sobba executed a Separation Agreement and General Release providing for a severance payment and benefits to Mr. Sobba consistent with the terms and conditions of Mr. Sobba’s executive employment agreement with the Company, dated as of April 27, 2018, which are salary continuation at base salary level prior to such termination, plus a continuation of the medical benefits and car allowance benefits, for a period of six months. In addition, the Separation Agreement and General Release provides for the vesting of Restricted Stock Unit grants on a pro rata basis for all awards granted to Mr. Sobba more than twelve months prior to his separation date. The description of the Separation Agreement and General Release is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
The Company announced the appointment of an officer.
On December 22, 2023, the Company appointed Jaime Becker, to serve as its Senior Vice-President and General Counsel. Ms. Becker, age 43, brings with her over a decade of experience in supporting both publicly and privately held domestic and international companies in the technology, logistics, construction, and oil and gas industries. Ms. Becker was a part of the legal team at Amazon, followed most recently by her role at Convoy. Ms. Becker holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Pepperdine University and a Juris Doctorate from Pepperdine University School of Law.
We entered into an employment agreement with Ms. Becker (“Employment Agreement”) setting forth the terms and conditions of her employment. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the Company will pay her an annual base salary of $250,000, subject to annual evaluation and adjustment. Incentive compensation will be awarded to Ms. Becker under the Company’s general management compensation plans, based upon the achievement of corporate and individual objectives at the discretion of our audit and executive oversight committee.
In addition to customary employment benefits that are broadly provided to our employees, such as participation in our stock option plans and life insurance, hospitalization, major medical and other health benefits, Ms. Becker is entitled to six months of severance in the form of salary continuation payments in the event her employment is terminated as a result of her death or disability, or by the Company other than for cause; or twelve months of severance if within nine months following a “Change of Control”, she voluntary terminates her employment for “Good Reason” or her employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause. For the purposes of the Employment Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to occur if there occurs a sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of substantially all of our assets to another entity, except to an entity controlled directly or indirectly by us, or a merger, consolidation or other reorganization in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a plan of liquidation or dissolution of the Company other than pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency laws. Additionally, “Good Reason” shall be deemed to occur upon either (i) a breach of the Employment Agreement by us, or (ii) a reduction in salary without Ms. Becker’s consent, unless any such reduction is otherwise part of an overall reduction in executive compensation experienced on a pro rata basis by other similarly situated employees.
The description of the Employment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated by reference herein.

3
Confidential Separation Agreement
employment from the Company or otherwise.
This means that by signing this Agreement, Executive understands that Executive will have waived any right Executive may have to bring a lawsuit or make any claim of any kind whatsoever against any released party based on any actions or omissions of the Company or any released party up to the effective date of this Agreement.
This release does not affect any legal rights that Executive may have arising after the Effective Date of this Agreement.
7.Waiver. By this Release, Executive does not waive the right to file a charge with a government administrative agency (“Agency”) enforcing civil rights laws, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or to participate in any investigation or proceeding
conducted by such an agency, nor shall any provision in this Agreement adversely affect Executive’s right to engage in such conduct. Nevertheless, pursuant to this paragraph, Executive waives the right to obtain any monetary relief or other recovery as a result of or with regard to the matters alleged in the charge or to collect any monies or compensation as a result of filing or participating in such a charge or complaint.
8.Complete Satisfaction. Executive represents that this Agreement provides complete satisfaction of any and all claims, whether known, suspected, or unknown, that Executive may have or has had against any of the Released Parties as of the date of this Agreement, and he hereby waives any and all relief for such claims not explicitly provided for herein.
9.No Pending Action. Executive represents that there are no outstanding administrative or judicial claims, complaints, charges, lawsuits or proceedings of any kind against any of the Released Parties to which he is a party or which were filed on Executive’s behalf. And that Executive is not aware of any facts that could give rise to a charge or Claim against any Released Parties.
10.Group Medical Insurance. Executive’s group health coverage with Company (medical, dental, and/or vision coverage and/or any health care flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, or dependent care flexible spending accounts) will continue for up to six months following the Separation Date. Pursuant to federal COBRA law, the Company agrees to pay
Executive’s COBRA premiums for continuation coverage in accordance with election materials and other COBRA notices to be sent to Executive by the plans’ designated administrator.
11.Confidentiality/Trade Secrets. Executive agrees that at all times hereafter, he will hold in the strictest confidence, and will not use or disclose to any person, firm or corporation, any Confidential Information of the Company. Executive understands that “Confidential Information” means any Company proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets or know-how, including, but not limited to, sales and pricing information, research, product plans, products, services, customer requirements, customer lists and customers, markets, software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances, or other business information disclosed to Executive by the Company, either directly or indirectly in writing, orally or by drawings or observation of parts or equipment. Executive understands that “Confidential Information” does not include any of the
4
Confidential Separation Agreement
foregoing items which has become publicly known and made generally available through no wrongful act of his or of others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved or improvements or new versions thereof. Executive understands and acknowledges that a breach of this Paragraph 11 would injure the Company irreparably in a way which could not be adequately compensated for by damages. Executive therefore agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach by him, the Company will be entitled to an injunction, without bond, restraining such breach, as well as costs and attorneys’ fees relating to any such proceeding or any other legal action to enforce this Paragraph 11. Nothing herein will be construed, however, as prohibiting the Company or its assignee or successor from pursuing other available remedies or recovering on any claim for damages for such breach or threatened breach.
Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive acknowledges that he may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a Trade Secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or Local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.
12.Confidentiality of Agreement. To the extent permissible under applicable law, Executive agrees that the existence of this Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to the Consideration and the amount thereof are absolutely confidential. Executive agrees he will not communicate or disclose the existence of this Agreement and/or the amount of the Consideration made by Company with any individual or third party, including current or former employees of Company. Executive represents that he has not disclosed and agrees he will not disclose the existence of this Agreement or any of the terms or conditions herein to anyone other than his attorney and tax or financial advisor, spouse, or as may be required pursuant to legal process; provided, however, that he will advise any such individuals beforehand of the existence of his confidentiality obligations under this Agreement and their corresponding obligations. Executive further agrees to take reasonable steps to ensure that any information concerning this Agreement which is disclosed to his attorney, spouse, and/or tax or financial advisor will not be disclosed to any other third party. Any violation of this confidentiality requirement by his attorney, spouse, and/or tax or financial advisor will be treated as a violation of this Agreement by Executive. Notwithstanding the above, Executive acknowledges that the Company is a public company who has an obligation under federal securities laws to describe the arrangements covered by this Agreement and to file a copy of this Agreement, with the Securities and Exchange Commission
13.Liquidated Damages. Executive agrees that if he breaches his promise to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement, including without limitation disclosing the amount of the Consideration, then the resulting damages would be impracticable or extremely difficult to determine because of the uncertain effect of the disclosure of such information on Company. Because of the difficulty of determining the damages resulting from the breach of the confidentiality provision in Paragraph 12 of this Agreement by Executive, the Parties agree that in the event of such a breach by Executive, Company shall be entitled to liquidated damages in the amount of Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($12,500) for each breach. Executive and Company represent and agree that the liquidated damages provision contained in this paragraph is fair and reasonable as confidentiality of this Agreement is of utmost concern to Company.
14.Return of Property. As a material condition of receiving and being entitled to retain the Consideration, Executive agrees that he will promptly return to the Company all Company
5
Confidential Separation Agreement
property (without retaining any copies) including, but not limited to laptops, reports, files, records, keys, computer disks and software, credit cards, telephones, cellular phones, and any and all other physical or personal property provided to Executive by the Company during the course of his employment. By executing this Agreement, Executive represents and warrants that Executive has returned all Company property to the Company at the time of execution.
15.Mutual Non-Disparagement or Harm. Executive agrees that he will not make any comments or statements relating to the Company or any Releasee that are negative, critical or derogatory and that would denigrate, disparage or otherwise injure the business or reputation of any of them. Similarly, the Company will instruct its executive leadership team not to make any comments or statements that are negative, critical or derogatory against Executive.
Nothing in Paragraphs 12 and 15 prevents Executive from discussing or disclosing information about alleged or perceived improper acts in the workplace. Further, nothing in Paragraphs 12 and 15 prevent Executive from discussing Executive’s employment with, and separation from, the Company with any government administrative agency, such as the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”), Security Exchange Commission (“SEC”), Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) or other agency, whether as part of a report, complaint, investigation, or for some other purpose.
16.Release of Age Discrimination Claims. Executive acknowledges with Executive’s signature on this Agreement that Executive has had at least twenty-one (21) calendar days within which to consider this Agreement but may voluntarily waive that 21-day period and immediately sign the Agreement if Executive so chooses. Executive further acknowledges that Executive has been advised that Executive has seven (7) calendar days after Executive’s execution of this Agreement to revoke it. Any such revocation must be in writing and delivered by hand, e-mail or facsimile (receipt confirmed) to the Vice President of Human Resources, Renee Kiss, at rkiss@radiantdelivers.com “I hereby revoke the Separation Agreement and General Release and forfeit any right to a severance payment.” Executive further acknowledges that Executive has read this Agreement in its entirety and that Executive fully understands all of the terms and conditions contained herein.
Executive further acknowledges that Executive is entering into this Agreement knowingly, voluntarily and of Executive’s own free will. This Agreement shall not become effective and enforceable until the seven-calendar day revocation period has expired.
17.Reference. If requested to provide a reference for Executive, the Company shall confirm Executive’s dates of employment, position and salary only and provide no other information.
18.Applicable Law and Forum Selection Clause. This Agreement shall be interpreted, governed and enforced under the laws of the State of Washington. The parties agree that any and all disputes arising under or related to this Agreement will and can only be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State of Washington.

If any terms or sections of this Agreement are determined to be unenforceable, they shall be modified so that the unenforceable term or section is enforceable to the greatest extent possible.
20.Counterparts/By Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts by

facsimile copy, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which together will constitute but one and the same instrument.
21.Unemployment Benefits. The Company will support and not contest Employee’s right to apply for and receive unemployment insurance benefits.

6.Benefits. As an employee of the Company, you will also be eligible to participate in such life insurance, hospitalization, major medical and other health benefits generally offered by the Company to its employees in your general job classification level. This presently includes participation in the Company's medical and dental insurance plans, however, these benefit programs are subject to termination or modification from time-to-time. You will also be eligible for a $1,000 per month car allowance benefit and to participate in the Company’s 401K plan, subject to its terms.

8.Expenses. You will be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses incurred by you in furtherance of your position with the Company, including travel and entertainment expense, upon submission of the appropriate documentation.
9.Employee-at-Will. This offer does not guarantee continued employment for any specified period of time, nor does it require that a dismissal be based on “cause.” Your employment and compensation with the Company are “at will” in that they can be terminated with or without cause, and with or without notice, at any time, at the option of either the Company or yourself, except as provided by law. The terms of this offer letter, therefore, do not and are not intended to create either an express and/or implied contract of employment with the Company.
10.Severance. Provided you have been employed by the Company for six months, should your employment be terminated as a result of: (i) your death; (ii) an illness or disability that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines prevents you from carrying out your employment duties; (iii) by the Company for no cause, i.e., if the termination was not a result of any misconduct on your part, then you will be entitled to receive severance payments from the Company in the form of salary continuation at your base salary level prior to such termination, plus a continuation of the medical benefits and car allowance benefits to which you were entitled at the time of such termination during the period of such severance payments. The severance payments shall continue for a period of 6 months from the date of your termination under this Section. However, should your employment be terminated by the Company for no cause or by you for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), either of which occur within nine months following a Change of Control, then: (i) the severance payments will continue instead for a period of 12 months from the date of your termination under this Section; and (ii) the vesting of any and all
Stock Options or other such grants or awards shall be deemed to have been accelerated as of the date of such termination to include the period for which such severance payments shall cover (i.e., for a period of 12 months of service). “Good Reason” for purposes of this offer letter is (i) a breach of this offer letter by the Company; or (ii), a reduction in your salary without your consent, unless any such reduction is otherwise part of an overall reduction in executive compensation experienced on a pro rata basis by other similarly situated senior vice presidents of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Good Reason shall not be deemed to exist unless and until you have given the Company thirty (30) days' written notice and an opportunity to cure. As a condition to the receipt of any severance payments from the Company, you shall be required to execute a separation agreement that shall include the broadest form of a waiver and release of all claims against the Company. For the purposes of this Section, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to occur if there occurs a sale, exchange, transfer or other disposition of substantially all of the assets of the Company to another entity, except to an entity controlled directly or indirectly by the Company, or a merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving entity, or a plan of liquidation or dissolution of the Company other than pursuant to bankruptcy or insolvency laws.
Should your employment be terminated as a result of: (i) your voluntary resignation; or (ii) by the Company as a result of actions taken, or omissions to act, by you that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines as misconduct by you, then the Company's only obligation shall be to pay you such portion of your base salary as may be accrued but unpaid on the date of termination.
11.Indemnification. In addition, the Company shall indemnify and defend you and your heirs, executors and administrators against any costs or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement, if such settlement is approved by the Company), fine, penalty, judgment and liability reasonably incurred by or imposed upon you in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, civil or criminal, to which you may be made a party or with which you shall be threatened, by reason of your being or having been an officer or director, unless with respect to such matter you shall have been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith or in the reasonable belief that the action was in the best interests of the Company, or unless such indemnification is precluded by law, public policy, or in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, such indemnification is being sought as a result of your actions which were either: (i) grossly negligent; (ii) reflective of your misconduct; (iii) in violation of rules, regulations or laws applicable to the Company; or (iv) in disregard of Company's policies.
12.Full-Time Position. You agree that your employment hereunder will be full time, to the exclusion of any other employment that would impede your full-time duties hereunder. You will conscientiously and diligently perform all required acts and duties to the best of your ability, and in a manner satisfactory to the Company. You will faithfully discharge all responsibilities and duties entrusted to you.
13.Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. In recognition of the matter of trust and fiduciary capacity in which you will be employed by the Company, you will be expected, during your term of employment and thereafter, not to disclose to any third party any “Confidential Information” you receive relative to the Company. For this purpose, the term Confidential Information includes information relative to the Company's method of operations,
customer base, strategies and objectives, pricing information, financial information, proprietary or licensed data, identity of vendors utilized by the Company, computer programs, system documentation, product offerings, software or hardware, manuals, formulae, processes, methods, inventions or other information or materials relating to the Company's affairs that are not otherwise publicly available. You also acknowledge that such Confidential Information constitutes a major asset of the Company, and that the use, misappropriation or disclosure of Confidential Information would constitute a breach of trust and could cause irreparable injury to the Company and that it is essential for the protection of the Company's goodwill and maintenance of the Company's competitive position that the Confidential Information be kept secret and that you neither disclose the Confidential Information to others nor use the Confidential Information to your own advantage or to the advantage of others. In addition, you shall not: (i) engage in any activities that may be viewed as competitive with the Company during your employment and any period in which severance payments are made or offered to you (which in the case of a lump sum payment, includes any period of salary continuation over which the payment was to have related) and (ii) for a period of 12 months following employment, directly or indirectly, solicit any business from, or relationships with, any past, present or prospective employees, customers or suppliers of the Company.
(a)This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Payments of Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation (as such term is defined under Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder) may only be made under this Agreement upon an event and in a manner permitted by Code Section 409A. For purposes of Code Section 409A, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with Code Section 409A including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the period of time specified in this Agreement, (ii) the amount of expenses available for reimbursement, or the in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense in incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
(b)To the extent required by Code Section 409A, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no payment of Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation will be provided to, or with respect to, the Employee on account of his separation from service until the first to occur of (i) the date of the Employee’s death or (ii) the date which is one day after the six (6) month anniversary of his separation from service, and in either case only if he is a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the regulations promulgated thereunder) in the year of his separation from service. Any payment that is delayed pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall instead be paid in a lump sum (subject to all applicable withholding) promptly following the first to occur of the two dates specified in such immediately preceding sentence.
(c)Any payment of Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation made under this Agreement pursuant to a voluntary or involuntary termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company shall be withheld until the Employee incurs both (i) a termination of his employment relationship with the Company and (ii) the first instance of a “separation from service” with the Company, as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h).
(d)The preceding provisions of this paragraph 14 shall not be construed as a guarantee by the Company of any particular tax effect to the Employee under this Agreement, under any plan or program sponsored or maintained by the Company or under any other agreement by and between the Employee and the Company. The Company shall not be liable to the Employee for any additional tax, penalty or interest imposed under Code Section 409A nor for reporting in good faith any payment made under this Agreement or under any such other plan, program or agreement as an amount includible in gross income under Code Section 409A.
15.Developments. You acknowledge that the Company will be the sole owner of all the results and products of your work efforts, including all written, audio and/or visual materials relating to the Company's business (collectively, the “Developments”) which you develop or create during the term of your employment, either alone or with others and whether or not during normal business hours. You acknowledge that all copyrightable Developments will be considered works “made for hire” or commissioned works under the Federal Copyright Act. You hereby assign all such Developments to the Company, and agree that you will execute or cooperate with the Company in any copyright or patent applications, and do all other acts, as the Company reasonably deems necessary to establish, protect, enforce or defend the Company's right, title and interest in such Developments.
16.Injunctive Relief. You acknowledge that irreparable injury or damage shall result to the Company in the event of a breach or threatened breach by you of Sections 13 or 15 of this offer letter and that the Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining you from engaging in any activity constituting such breach or threatened breach. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to the Company at law or in equity for breach or threatened breach of Sections 13 or 15 of this offer letter, including but not limited to, the recovery of damages from you and, the termination of your employment with the Company for cause in accordance with the terms and provisions of this offer letter.
17.Validity. If any provision, or portion thereof, of this offer letter is deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, illegal or in conflict with any federal, state or local law, the validity of the remaining terms and provisions of this offer letter shall continue to exist and remain in full force and effect.
18.No Prior Agreements. In order to induce the Company to offer you this position of employment, you are hereby confirming for us that you are not a party to or otherwise subject to or bound by the terms of any contract, agreement or understanding that in any manner would limit or otherwise affect your ability to perform your obligations hereunder. You further represent and warrant that your employment by the Company would not under any circumstances require you to disclose or use any Confidential Information belonging to any third parties, or to engage in any conduct which may potentially interfere with contractual, statutory or common-law rights of third parties.
19.Entire Agreement. The terms of this offer letter constitute the complete and exclusive agreement among the parties and supersedes all proposals, oral and written, and other communications between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.
20.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. Any dispute arising between the parties relating in any manner to this Agreement shall be brought in a federal or state court located in Seattle, Washington.
21.Counterparts. This offer of employment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but which together shall constitute the same instrument. Each party agrees to be bound by its own telecopy or facsimile signature, and agrees that it accepts the telecopy or facsimile signature of the other party hereto.
If you agree to accept the terms of this offer of employment, would you kindly sign this letter and return it to us by no later than your start date.
