		5.	Termination

by the Company for Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement at any time for Cause
upon written notice. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” for termination shall mean any of the following:
(i) the conviction of Executive of, or the entry of a plea of guilty, first offender probation before judgment or nolo
contendere by Executive to, any felony or any other crime involving dishonesty; (ii) fraud, misappropriation, embezzlement,
or breach of fiduciary duty by Executive with respect to the Company; (iii) Executive’s willful failure, bad faith,
or gross negligence in the performance of his assigned duties for the Company following Executive’s receipt of written notice
of such willful failure, bad faith, or gross negligence; (iv) Executive’s failure to follow reasonable and lawful directives
of the Board following Executive’s receipt of written notice of such failure; (v) any act or omission of Executive that
that the Board reasonably determines to be likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business or reputation
for honesty and fair dealing; other than an act or failure to act by Executive acting reasonably, in good faith and without reason
to believe that such act or failure to act would adversely impact the Company’s business or reputation for honesty and fair
dealing; or (vi) the breach by Executive of any material term of this Agreement following Executive’s receipt of written
notice of such breach. The Company shall provide Executive a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of any written Cause
notification in order to allow Executive the opportunity to effectuate a cure of the acts or omissions that form the basis for
the determination, but only to the extent such acts or omissions are capable of cure.


 


(b)    Termination
by the Company without Cause. Upon giving Executive sixty (60) days’ written notice, the Company may terminate this
Agreement without Cause. At the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, it may substitute sixty (60) days’ salary
in lieu of notice. Any salary paid to Executive by the Company in lieu of notice shall not be offset against any entitlement Executive
may have to the Severance Payment pursuant to Section 6(c)(i) below.


 


(c)    Termination
by Executive for Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment with the Company under this Agreement at any time for
Good Reason, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice by Executive to the Company. Executive may not terminate this Agreement
for Good Reason hereunder unless and until he has provided the Company with written notice of the action which Executive contends
to be Good Reason (which notice must specify that such action constitutes the basis for a “Good Reason” resignation
hereunder), such written notice is provided within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of the event which Executive contends
to be Good Reason and the Company has failed to reasonably remedy such action within thirty (30) days of receiving such written
notice. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” for termination shall mean any of the following: (i) the
assignment to Executive of substantial duties or responsibilities materially inconsistent with Executive’s position at the
Company or any other action by the Company which results in a substantial diminution of Executive’s duties or responsibilities
as a senior executive of the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, if Executive is removed as a director or senior executive of
any Company Affiliate, such removal or resignation shall not constitute a basis for a resignation or termination of this Agreement
by Executive for Good Reason); (ii) The Company’s failure to pay Executive any Base Salary or other compensation to which
he is entitled for a period of three (3) business days; (iii) a material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary;
or (iv) a breach of any material term of this Agreement by the Company.

(d)    Executive’s
Death or Disability. Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate immediately upon his death or, upon written
notice as set forth below, his Disability. As used in this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean such permanent
physical or mental impairment as would render Executive unable to perform his duties under this Agreement for more than one hundred
eighty (180) days. If the Employment Period is terminated by reason of Executive’s Disability, either party shall give
thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to that effect to the other. This Section 5(d) is intended

which are covered by Sections 6(e)(i) and (ii) below, respectively), Executive shall be entitled
to receive each of the following: (i) payment of any unpaid portion of his Base Salary through the effective date of termination;
(ii) reimbursement for any outstanding reasonable business expense he has incurred in performing his duties hereunder in accordance
with Section 4(e) above; (iii) continued insurance benefits to the extent required by law; and (iv) payment
of any fully vested but unpaid rights as required by the terms of any bonus or other incentive pay plan, or any other employee
benefit plan or program of the Company.


 


(b)    Termination
by the Company for Cause. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause, Executive shall have no rights
or claims under this Agreement against the Company or its officers, directors, employees, or equity holders, with respect to such
termination of employment, except only to receive the payments and benefits described in Section 6(a) above.


 


(c)    Termination
by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If the Company terminates this Agreement without Cause pursuant
to Section 5(b) above, or Executive terminates this Agreement for Good Reason pursuant to Section 5(c) above
during the Employment Period, then Executive shall only be entitled to receive, and the Company shall pay, in addition
to the items referenced in Section 6(a) above, the following:


 


(i)    An
aggregate amount equal to his Base Salary at the rate in effect on his last day of employment (the “Severance Payment”).
The Severance Payment shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly installments commencing after Executive’s termination
of employment, subject to all legally required payroll deductions and withholdings. The twelve (12)-month period during which
Severance Payments shall be tendered is the “Severance Payment Period.”


 


 






    	 	5	 



     


    

(ii)    To
help defray Executive’s costs of procuring health, dental or drug insurance coverage, the Company shall pay Executive an
additional monthly amount of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) (the “Additional Amount”) with each Severance Payment
installment during the Severance Payment Period to be paid to Executive under Section 6(c)(i) above. In
no event shall payment of the Additional Amount to Executive extend beyond the Severance Payment Period.


 


(iii)    A pro-rata share
of any Discretionary Annual Bonus which Executive otherwise would have been entitled under Section 4(b)(i) above
for the fiscal year in which his employment terminates without Cause or for Good Reason, with such discretionary amount determined
by the Board in good faith and prorated based on the number of days Executive is employed in the fiscal year of termination. Such pro-rated bonus
shall be paid to Executive within thirty (30) days following the date the financial results of such fiscal year are accepted
by the Board and in no event shall any discretionary amount be determined in a manner different than such amounts are determined
for still-employed senior executives of the Company.


 


(d)    Termination
by Executive without Good Reason. If Executive terminates this Agreement without Good Reason, Executive shall only be entitled
to receive the payments and benefits described in Section 6(a).


 


(e) Termination
upon Death or Disability


 


(i)    If
Executive’s employment terminates in the event of his death, Executive’s estate shall be entitled to receive (a) payment
of any unpaid portion of his Base Salary through the date of his death, (b) payment of any fully vested but unpaid rights
as required by the terms of any bonus or other incentive pay plan or any other employee benefit plan or program of the Company
and (c) a pro-rata share of any Discretionary Annual Bonus to which he otherwise would have been entitled under Section 4(b)(i) above
for the fiscal year in which his death occurs at no less than the target bonus percentage, paid at the time discretionary annual
bonuses are paid to still-employed executives of the Company. Further, the Company shall pay the Additional Amount for a period
of twelve (12) months following his date of death. Executive’s estate shall not be entitled to receive any severance
pay or benefits or other amounts for termination due to his death other than as provided in this Section 6(e)(i);
and


 


(ii)    In
the event Executive’s employment terminates due to his Disability, he shall be entitled to receive his Base Salary through
the date he is terminated due to his Disability. Executive also shall be entitled to receive a pro-rata share of any
Discretionary Annual Bonus to which he otherwise would have been entitled under Section 4(b)(i) above for
the fiscal year in which his employment terminates due to his Disability, paid at the time discretionary annual bonuses are paid
to still-employed executives of the Company. Further, the Company shall pay the Additional Amount for a period of twelve (12) months
following the date of termination of his employment.  Executive shall receive no severance pay or benefits for termination
due to his Disability other than as provided in this Section 6(e)(ii).


 


 






    	 	6	 



     


    

(f)    Non-Renewal of
Employment. If employment terminates based upon the expiration of the Employment Term, then Executive shall only be entitled
to receive the items referenced in Section 6(a) above.


 


(g)    Termination
following Change in Control. If a Change in Control (as defined below) occurs during the Employment Period, the following provisions
shall apply:


 


(i)    Termination
without Cause or for Good Reason. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause or Executive terminates
his employment for Good Reason within two (2) years following a Change in Control, the termination shall be treated as a
termination pursuant to Section 6(c) above; provided, however, that the Severance
Payment shall be increased to two times (2X) Executive’s Base Salary.


 


For
purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” means a (i) Change in Ownership of the Company, (ii)
Change in Ownership of Assets of the Company, or (iii) a Change in Effective Control of the Company, as described herein
and construed in accordance with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).


 


(A)    A
 “Change in Ownership of the Company” shall occur on the date that any Person acquires, or Persons Acting as
a Group acquire, ownership of the equity interests of the Company that, together with the stock held by such Person or Group,
constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the equity interests of the
Company. However, if any Person is, or Persons Acting as a Group are, considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total
fair market value or total voting power of the equity interests of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same
Person or Persons Acting as a Group is not considered to cause a Change in Ownership of the Company. An increase in the percentage
of equity interests owned by any Person, or Persons Acting as a Group, as a result of a transaction in which the Company acquires
its equity interests in exchange for property shall be treated as an acquisition of equity interests.


 


(B)    A
 “Change in the Ownership of Assets of the Company” shall occur on the date that any Person acquires, or Persons
Acting as a Group acquire (or has or have acquired during the twelve (12)-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition
by such Person or Persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than eighty-five
percent (85%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or
acquisitions. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets
being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.


 


(C)    A
 “Change in Effective Control of the Company” shall occur on the date more than fifty percent (50%) of the members
of the Board are replaced during any twelve (12)-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a
majority of the existing members of the Board.


 


 






    	 	7	 



     


    

The following rules of construction
apply in interpreting the definition of Change in Control:


 


(A)    A
 “Person” means any individual, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, other than employee benefit plans sponsored or maintained by the Company and
by entities controlled by the Company or an underwriter of the equity interests of the Company in a registered public offering.


 


(B)    Persons
shall be considered to be “Persons Acting as a Group (or a Group)” if they are owners of a corporation that
enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock or similar business transaction with the Company. If a Person
owns equity interests in both the Company and the other corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition
of stock or similar business transaction, such holder is considered to be acting as a Group with other holders only with respect
to the ownership in the entity giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the Company. Persons
shall not be considered to be acting as a Group solely because they purchase assets of the same entity at the same time or purchase
or own stock of the same corporation at the same time, or as a result of the same public offering.


 


(C)    For
purposes of this definition, fair market value shall be determined by the Board.


 


(D)    A
Change in Control shall not include a transfer to a related person as described in Code Section 409A.


 


(E)    For
purposes of this definition, Code Section 318(a) applies to determine ownership. Equity underlying a vested option is considered
owned by the individual who holds the vested option (and the stock underlying an unvested option is not considered owned by the
individual who holds the unvested option). For purposes of the preceding sentence, however, if a vested option is exercisable
for equity that is not substantially vested (as defined by Treasury Regulation §§1.83-3(b) and (j)), the equity
underlying the option is not treated as owned by the individual who holds the option.


 


(F)    A
public offering of the Company’s securities shall not constitute a Change in Control under this Agreement.


 


(h)    Separation
Agreement Required for Severance Payments. No post-employment payments by the Company relating to termination of employment
under the provisions of Section 6(c), (d), (e), or (g) above shall commence until
Executive executes and delivers a Separation and General Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) in form
and substance satisfactory to the Company and releasing the Company from all claims, which must occur by no later than the thirtieth
(30th) day following the termination of Executive’s employment.


 


(i)    
Cooperation. Following the Employment Period, Executive shall assist and cooperate with the Company in the orderly transition
of work to others if so requested by the Company. Executive shall cooperate with the Company and be responsive to requests for
information by it relating to its business matters about which Executive may have information or knowledge and reasonably assist
the Company with any litigation, threatened litigation or arbitration proceeding relating to the Company’s business as to
which business Executive had relevant knowledge, and the Company shall reimburse Executive for reasonable costs, including attorneys’
fees and expenses, actually incurred by Executive in connection with such assistance.


 


 



    	 	8	 



     


    
		7.	Confidentiality


 


(a)    Definition
of Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that he may be furnished or may otherwise receive or have access to confidential
information which relates to the Company’s or a Company Affiliates’ past, present or future business activities, strategies,
services or products, research and development; financial analysis and data; improvements, patents, trademarks, inventions, know-how,
trade secrets, processes, techniques, designs or other technical data; profit margins and other financial information; fee arrangements;
terms and contents of leases, distribution agreements and other contracts; customer and supplier lists, price lists or other compilations
for marketing or development; confidential personnel and payroll information; or other information regarding administrative, management,
financial, marketing, leasing or sales activities of the Company or any Company Affiliates or of a third party which provided proprietary
information to either or both on a confidential basis. All such information, including any materials or documents containing such
information, shall be considered by the Company, the Company Affiliates, and Executive as proprietary and confidential information
of the Company and the Company Affiliates (the “Confidential Information”).


 


(b)    Exclusions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include (i) information disseminated by the Company or Company
Affiliates on a non-confidential basis to third parties in the ordinary course of business; (ii) information in
the public domain not as a result of a breach of any duty by Executive or any other person; or (iii) information that the
Company or Company Affiliates, as the case may be, does not consider confidential.


 


(c)    Obligations.
Both during the Employment Period and after termination of his employment for any reason, including expiration of the Employment
Period (the “Nondisclosure Restricted Period”), Executive shall preserve and protect the confidentiality
of the Confidential Information and all physical forms thereof, whether disclosed to him before this Agreement is signed or afterward.
In addition, Executive shall not (i) disclose or disseminate the Confidential Information to any third party, including employees
of the Company without a legitimate business need to know; (ii) remove the Confidential Information from the Company’s
premises without a valid business purpose; or (iii) use the Confidential Information for his own benefit or for the benefit
of any third party, in each of the foregoing cases during the Nondisclosure Restricted Period.


 


(d)    Exceptions.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Executive may, if and solely to the extent required by law, disclose
Confidential Information but, to the extent possible, shall first notify the Company in writing of each such requirement so that
the Company may seek a protective order or waive compliance with this Agreement. Executive will cooperate fully with the Company
at the expense of the Company in seeking any such protective order.


 


 






    	 	9	 



     


    

(e)    Return
of Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that all the Confidential Information pre-existing, used or generated
during the course of his employment by the Company is the property of the Company and the Company Affiliates, as the case may be,
and Executive holds and uses such as a trustee for the Company or the Company Affiliates and subject to the Company’s and
the Company Affiliates’ sole control. Executive shall deliver to the Company all documents and other tangibles (including
diskettes and other storage media) containing the Confidential Information (x) at any time upon request by the Company and
(y) immediately upon termination of the Employment Period.


 


		8.	Noncompetition
and Non-Solicitation


 


(a)    Restriction
on Competition. During the Employment Period and a period of twelve (12) months following the expiration, resignation or termination
of Executive’s employment for any reason (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not engage, directly
or indirectly, either individually or through another person or entity, whether as an owner, employee, consultant, partner, principal,
agent, representative, stockholder or otherwise, of, in, to or for any business that competes with the business of the Company
and which is located or operating within the United States or Canada (the “Restricted Area”); provided, however,
that Executive may own less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of any publicly traded corporation that engages
in a competing business. For purposes of this Section 8(a), a business that competes with the business of the Company shall
include, but not be limited to, any business that is engaged in the design, manufacture, assembly, sale or leasing of electric
boats and/or their related products, services and components.


 


(b)    Non-Solicitation of
Customers. During the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, on his own behalf or on behalf of any
other person(s), solicit any former, current or prospective customer of the Company for the purpose of selling or supplying goods,
products or services which are competitive to the goods, products and services supplied by the Company at the time of your termination.


 


(c)    Non-Solicitation of
Employees. During the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or employ or cause any business
to solicit or employ any person who is then or was at any time during the two (2)-year period prior to Executive’s termination
as an employee of the Company or a Company Affiliate, except to the extent that such action is undertaken in the ordinary course
of hiring practices (e.g., an employment solicitation that is transmitted generally to the public or in the industry, rather than
one that is targeted directly to any such employee of the Company).


 


(d)    Acknowledgement.
Executive acknowledges that he will acquire much Confidential Information concerning the past, present and future business of the
Company and Company Affiliates as the result of his employment with the Company, as well as access to the relationships between
the Company, and the Company Affiliates and their respective clients and employees. Executive further acknowledges that the business
of the Company and the Company Affiliates is very competitive and that competition by him in that business during the Employment
Period and the Restricted Period would severely injure the Company and the Company Affiliates, as the case may. Executive understands
that the restrictions contained in this Section 8 are reasonable and are required for the Company’s
and the Company Affiliates’ legitimate protection, and do not unduly limit his ability to earn a livelihood.


 


 






    	 	10	 



     


    

(e)    Severability.
If any court determines that any provision of this Section 8 is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of
this Section 8 shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid
portion. In addition, if any court or arbitrator construes any portion of this Section 8 to be unenforceable
because of the duration of such provision or the area covered thereby, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or
area of such provision and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced. This Section 8,
as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.


 


(f)    Breach
of Restrictive Covenants. Notwithstanding any arbitration provisions contained in this Agreement, the Company shall have the
right and remedy to have the provisions of this Section 8 specifically enforced by a court of competent jurisdiction
without any requirement to first seek a remedy through arbitration, including by temporary or permanent injunction, it being acknowledged
and agreed that any such violation may cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages will not provide an adequate
remedy to the Company. The Company shall also have the right to seek damages for any breach of this Section 8.


 


(g)    Successors
and Assigns. The Company and its successors and assigns may enforce these restrictive covenants.


 


		9.	Ownership
of Intellectual Property.


 


(a)
Definition of Inventions. For purposes of this Agreement, “Inventions” means, collectively, all (i)
discoveries, inventions, ideas, suggestions, reports, documents, designs, technology, methodologies, compilations, concepts, procedures,
processes, products, protocols, treatments, methods, tests, improvements, work product and computer programs (including all source
code, object code, compilers, libraries and developer tools, and any manuals, descriptions, data files, resource files and other
such materials relating thereto), and (ii) each and every part of the foregoing that are conceived, developed, reduced to practice

		10.	Arbitration


 


(a)
Matters for Arbitration. Except with respect to any claim for breach of the restrictive covenants contained in Sections
7 and 8 of this Agreement, including any request for injunctive relief to enforce compliance with the terms of Sections
7 and 8, the Parties agree that all questions or matters in dispute with respect to this Agreement shall be submitted to arbitration
pursuant to the terms hereof. This provision shall not prejudice a Party from seeking a Court order or assistance to garnish or
secure sums.


 


(b)
Notice. It shall be a condition precedent to the right of any Party to submit any matter to arbitration pursuant to the
provisions hereof that any Party intending to refer any matter to arbitration shall have given not less than five (5) business
days’ prior written notice of its intention to do so to the other Party together with particulars of the matter in dispute.
On the expiration of such five (5) business days the Party who gave such notice may proceed to refer the dispute to arbitration
as provided for herein. This provision shall not prejudice a Party from seeking a Court order or assistance to garnish or secure
sums or to seek summary remedy for such matters as counsel may consider amenable to summary proceedings.


 


(c)
Appointments.  The Party desiring arbitration shall appoint one arbitrator, and shall notify the other Party of such
appointment, and the other Party shall, within five (5) business days after receiving such notice, appoint an arbitrator, and
the two arbitrators so named, before proceeding to act, shall, within five (5) business days of the appointment of the last appointed
arbitrator, unanimously agree on the appointment of a third arbitrator, to act with them and be chairperson of the arbitration
herein provided for. If the other Party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within five (5) business days after receiving notice
of the appointment of the first arbitrator, or if the two arbitrators appointed by the Parties shall be unable to agree on the
appointment of the chairperson, such arbitrators shall be appointed in accordance with the provisions of the Quebec Code of Civil
Procedure (the “Code”). Except as specifically otherwise provided in this section, the arbitration herein provided
for shall be conducted in accordance with such Code. The chairperson, or in the case where only one arbitrator is appointed, the
single arbitrator, shall fix a time and place in Montreal, Quebec, for the purpose of hearing the evidence and representations
of the Parties, and the chairperson shall preside over the arbitration and determine all questions of procedure not provided for
by the Code or this section. After hearing any evidence and representations that the Parties may submit, the single arbitrator,
or the arbitrators, as the case may be, shall make an award and reduce the same to writing, and deliver one copy thereof to each
of the Parties. The expense of the arbitration shall be paid as specified in the award.


 


(d)
Award. The Parties agree that the award of a majority of the arbitrators, or in the case of a single arbitrator, of such
arbitrator, shall be final and binding upon each of them.
