This
Executive Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective this 6th day
of September, 2017 by and between Surna Inc., a Nevada corporation whose address is 1780 55th Street, Suite A, Boulder,
Colorado 80301 (the “Company”) and Chris Bechtel, an adult resident of the State of Texas (the “Executive”).
The Executive and the Company may be referred to herein individually as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.”


 


AGREED
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS


 


A.
The Company is engaged in the development, design and distribution of cultivation technologies for controlled environment agriculture
for state-regulated cannabis cultivation facilities and traditional indoor agricultural facilities, including lighting, environmental
control and air sanitation designed to meet the specific environmental conditions required for indoor cultivation and to reduce
energy and water consumption (the “Business”).


 


B.
In connection with the Business, the Company manufactures or is developing, sells and delivers the following products and services:
(i) liquid-based process cooling and climate control systems, (ii) reflectors and lighting systems, including water-cooled reflectors,
(iii) a full-service engineering package for designing and engineering commercial scale thermodynamic systems specific to indoor
cultivation facility conditions, (iv) automation and control devices, systems and technologies used for environmental, lighting
and climate control in indoor cultivation facilities, (v) a comprehensive, hybrid cultivation facility design and building utilizing
sunlight and a high-power LED lighting system, and (vi) and other products, services, and technologies now or hereafter developed
related to the foregoing (collectively, the “Products”)


 


C.
The Business of the Company is highly competitive and requires the creation of intimate and prolonged relationships with the Company’s
customers because of the custom products developed for individual customers, and the significance of adapting to the marketing
plans continually being created by these customers.


 


D.
The Company has invested and will continue to invest considerable sums of time, money, and other resources in developing the confidence
and loyalty of its customers and potential customers and to recruit, train, support and compensate its employees and potential
employees. In addition, the Company expends significant amounts of time and money to attract, identify, locate, and establish
contacts and business relationships with prospective customers. The loss of these existing and prospective relationships with
customers, and with existing and potential employees, will cause substantial and irreparable harm to the Company, which cannot
be accurately or adequately compensated by money alone.


 


E.
The Company desires to retain the services of the Executive as a member of the Company’s management team. The Executive
desires to continue such employment and commits to devote all of the Executive’s business time and attention to services
benefiting the Company. Both the Executive and the Company wish to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions
of the Executive’s employment with the Company.


 


F.
The Executive acknowledges that, in connection with the execution of this Agreement, the Executive is receiving new and valuable
consideration from the Company including, without limitation, an incentive bonus program and the grant of certain restricted stock
units and non-qualified stock options under the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, as adopted by the Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board”) on August 1, 2017, as may be modified and amended by the Company from time
to time (the “EIP”).


 


G.
The Executive acknowledges that, in the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive will frequently
come into contact with the Company’s customers and suppliers to such an extent that the Executive may be able to control
or direct, in whole or in part, the business and relationships between the Company and its customers and suppliers. Accordingly,
the Company reposes its trust in the Executive not to disrupt or otherwise misappropriate the customer and supplier relationships
developed and/or supported by the Company.


 




    	 



     


    




 


H.
The Executive will also, during the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company, have frequent and close contact
with the Company’s other executive managers, salespeople, and key staff employees. As a result of the Executive’s
position, the Executive will acquire and have access to confidential information concerning the Company’s employees, prospective
employees, customers, suppliers, and prospective customers and suppliers that is not easily or generally available to the Company’s
competitors.


 


I.
The Executive acknowledges that, by virtue of the Executive’s position with the Company, the Executive will have access
to certain secret and confidential business data and information belonging to the Company including, but not limited to: marketing
plans, financial strategies, market surveys and assessments, customer and Company technical information, financial statements,
budget data, personnel records, customer profiles and purchase requirements, product design, engineering and technical specifications,
pricing plans and strategies, sales contracts and proposals, private and confidential discussions with executive managers, legal
advice and strategies, performance evaluations, price schedules from suppliers, litigation and planned litigation, capital needs,
lists of customers and potential customers, hiring and training goals, internal operation and production reports and schedules,
compensation packages, customer account projections, licenses, promotional plans and information, corporate policies for internal
operations, bids and proposals by suppliers and to customers, identities and personal profiles of key persons at customers and
potential customers, expense data by customer, and other confidential and sensitive business information developed and maintained
by the Company.


 


J.
The Company has a valuable and proprietary interest in the confidential information described in paragraph I above and has expended
considerable time and money to safeguard and protect such information from direct or indirect divulgence of same by its employees,
including the Executive. In addition, as part of the Company’s relationship with each of its customers, the Company assures
customers that the unique, confidential, and secret information shared by customers with the Company will be protected from disclosure
to and unauthorized use by others. Any divulgence of such information will constitute an irreparable injury to the Company and
the Company’s customers.


 


K.
The Executive acknowledges that (i) the Executive’s position with the Company is one of great trust and confidence requiring
that the Executive exercise a high degree of loyalty, honesty, and integrity, (ii) the Executive has and will receive substantial
and adequate monetary consideration and benefits pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) the Executive has read and understood the terms
of this Agreement and signed the same as a free and voluntary act, and (iv) the Executive understands that there is no need to
continue employment with the Company, but the Executive has freely chosen to enter into this Agreement because of a desire to
take advantage of the specific and unique opportunities offered by continued employment with the Company and the additional benefits

a.

$180,000 per year, which shall be payable in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practice
from time to time, less customary or legally required withholdings and deductions, for periods actually worked by the Executive.


 


b.
Restricted Stock Units. Upon execution of this Agreement or as soon as practicable thereafter, subject to the approval
of the Board (or an authorized committee thereof), as compensation for entering into this Agreement, the Company shall grant 3,000,000
Restricted Stock Units (as defined in the EIP) to the Executive, which shall subject to the terms of the EIP and a separate Restricted
Stock Unit Agreement to be executed by the Company and the Executive, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
B. The Restricted Stock Units shall be valued at Fair Market Value (as defined in the EIP) on the date such Restricted
Stock Units vest and, upon vesting, the Executive will receive one share of the Company’s common stock (“Common
Stock”) for each vested Restricted Stock Unit (with no cash purchase price to be paid by the Executive for such share
of Common Stock). As a condition to the Company’s obligations with respect to the Restricted Stock Units (including, without
limitation, any obligation to deliver any shares of Common Stock upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Units), the Executive shall
make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company any federal, state, local, or foreign taxes of any kind required
to be withheld with respect to the delivery of shares of Common Stock corresponding to such Restricted Stock Units. The Restricted
Stock Units shall vest as follows:


 


	

    Number of Restricted Stock Units	 	Vesting
    Schedule
	 

        1,500,000
        shares

         
	 	 

        Vest
        on March 31, 2019, if the Company’s 2018 revenue is at least $18 million (provided the Executive is employed by,
        or providing services to, the Company at December 31, 2018)

        

	 	 	 
	 

        1,500,000
        shares

         
	 	
        Vest
        on March 31, 2020, if the Company’s 2019 revenue is at least $25 million (provided the Executive is employed by,
        or providing services to, the Company at December 31, 2019)

        



 


Any
Restricted Stock Units that do not vest on the date specified above due to failure to meet the applicable performance threshold
will be forfeited on such date.


 


For
purposes of determining the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, which are subject to a revenue threshold for 2018 and 2019,
the achievement of such revenue threshold will be based on the Company’s annual revenue as reported in the Company’s
financial statements for such year, as audited by the Company’s accounting firm, excluding any revenue attributable to any
business acquired by the Company after the Effective Date.

c.
Incentive Bonus Program. The Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual incentive bonus (each an “Annual
Incentive Bonus”) for each completed year of employment during the Term in accordance with a bonus policy adopted by
the Board (or an authorized committee thereof), as may be amended or modified from time to time. The bonus policy will provide
that the Executive shall be entitled to earn an Annual Incentive Bonus for such completed year of employment based on performance
criteria determined in the sole discretion of the Board. The Annual Incentive Bonus for a completed year of employment shall be
paid within forty-five (45) days following the end of the completed year. Other than as set forth in Section 9, the Executive
must be employed by, or be providing services to, the Company or an affiliate of the Company on the date an Annual Incentive Bonus
is to be paid to be eligible to receive the Annual Incentive Bonus for such completed year of employment. Payment of the Annual
Incentive Bonus may be made in the form of cash, stock bonus (issued pursuant to the EIP), or a combination thereof, as determined
in the sole discretion of the Board (or an authorized committee thereof). As a condition to the Company’s obligations with
respect to any stock bonus (including, without limitation, any obligation to deliver any shares of Common Stock with respect to
any stock bonus), the Executive shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company any federal, state,
local, or foreign taxes of any kind required to be withheld with respect to the delivery of shares of Common Stock with respect
to such stock bonus.


 


In
lieu of the Annual Incentive Bonus for each completed year of employment during the Initial Term, which the Executive acknowledges
that the Executive will not be eligible to receive, the Company has adopted a special incentive bonus program under which the
Executive will be eligible to receive an incentive bonus on each December 31 and June 30 during the Initial Term (the “Special
Incentive Bonus”). For each of the five (5) Special Incentive Bonuses payable during the Initial Term, the Executive
shall be eligible to receive a bonus of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, provided the Board has determined,
in its sole discretion, that the Executive’s performance has been average or better for such Special Incentive Bonus period.
The Special Incentive Bonus for each period shall be paid within forty-five (45) days following December 31 or June 30, as applicable.
Other than as set forth in Section 9, the Executive must be employed by, or providing services to, the Company or an affiliate
of the Company on the date the Special Incentive Bonus is to be paid to be eligible to receive the Special Incentive Bonus for
such period. As a condition to the Company’s obligations with respect to each Special Incentive Bonus (including, without
limitation, any obligation to deliver any shares of Common Stock with respect to any Special Incentive Bonus), the Executive shall
make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company any federal, state, local, or foreign taxes of any kind required
to be withheld with respect to the delivery of shares of Common Stock with respect to such Special Incentive Bonus.


 


d.
Non-qualified Stock Options. In consideration of the grant of the foregoing Restricted Stock Units and the eligibility
for the Special Incentive Bonus, the Company and the Executive hereby agree that the non-qualified stock options to purchase 900,000
shares of the Company’s common stock, which were granted to the Executive as an equity retention award in connection with
the Executive’s appointment to the Board on August 8, 2017, are hereby terminated and cancelled effective as of the date
of this Agreement.


 


e.
Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, any incentive-based compensation,
or any other compensation, paid to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement with the Company
which is subject to recovery under any law, governmental regulation, or stock exchange listing requirement, will be subject to
such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing
requirement.

f.
Change of Control. In the event that there is a “Change in Control” (as defined below) prior
to the date on which the Restricted Stock Units become fully vested, then 100% of the Restricted Stock Units not already vested
shall become vested on the date of the Change of Control (other than those Restricted Stock Units that have been previously forfeited
due to failure to meet the performance threshold), provided the Executive is employed by, or providing services to, the Company
on the date immediately preceding the date of the Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control prior to December 31,
2019, then the remaining Special Incentive Bonuses related to any Special Incentive Bonus period ending after the date of the
Change of Control shall become due and payable on the date of the Change of Control, provided the Executive is employed by, or
providing services to, the Company on the date immediately preceding the date of the Change of Control. A “Change of
Control” means a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange, or consolidation or similar transaction involving
the Company, or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, unless, following such transaction,
all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Company’s equity and voting
securities immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the
value of the then outstanding equity securities and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities

a.

including, but not limited to, travel expenses, professional conventions or similar professional functions and other reasonable

to take its full business expense deduction. The Company shall have no obligation to reimburse the Executive for expenses claimed
if the Executive does not provide sufficient receipts and/or documentation. The Executive shall submit requests for reimbursement
of business expenses at least once every month. The Executive shall not be entitled to a corporate credit card, and any frequent

required by this Agreement). The amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement
in any subsequent year. The amount of any in-kind benefits provided in one year shall not affect the amount of in-kind benefits
provided in any other year.


 


c.
For purposes of Code Section 409A (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)),
the right to receive payments in the form of installment payments shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate
payments and, accordingly, each installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. Whenever
a payment under this Agreement may be paid within a specified period, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall
be within the sole discretion of the Company.


 


d.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if at the time of the Executive’s separation from
service (as defined in Code Section 409A), the Executive is a “Specified Executive”, then the Company will defer the
payment or commencement of any nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A payable upon separation from service
(without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Executive) until the date that is six (6)
months following separation from service or, if earlier, the earliest other date as is permitted under Code Section 409A (and
any amounts that otherwise would have been paid during this deferral period will be paid in a lump sum on the day after the expiration
of the six (6)- month period or such shorter period, if applicable). The Executive will be a “Specified Executive”
for purposes of this Agreement if, on the date of the Executive’s separation from service, the Executive is an individual
who is, under the method of determination adopted by the Company designated as, or within the category of executives deemed to
be, a “Specified Executive” within the meaning and in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i). The
Company shall determine in its sole discretion all matters relating to who is designated as a “Specified Executive”
and the application of and effects of the change in such determination.

e.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or elsewhere to the contrary, a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have
occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits that constitute
“non-qualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of the
Executive’s employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code
Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination
of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” and the date of such separation from service
shall be the date of termination for purposes of any such payment or benefits.


 


11.
Activity Restrictions; Executive Covenants.


 


a.
Purpose. As previously acknowledged, the Company has invested heavily in its information systems, personnel, product
development, customers, and customer development. As a member of the Company’s executive management group, the Executive
is entrusted with the fruits of these investments and the decisions to be made regarding similar future investments. In order
to participate in the benefits of a highly compensated position of trust with the Company, the Company requires a written commitment
from key employees that its trust will not be misplaced and its investments lost or damaged. Accordingly, the Executive makes
the following promises regarding the Executive’s activities.


 


b.
Best Efforts. The Executive will at all times perform all of the Executive’s assigned duties faithfully and
exert the Executive’s best efforts to fully perform those duties pursuant to the express and implicit terms of this Agreement
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. During employment, the Executive will not engage in or become interested in any
calling, activity, or other business which is or may be contrary to or in competition with the interests and welfare of the Company.


 


c.
Inventions; Intellectual Property.


 


i.
Inventions. Every invention and improvement conceived, invented or developed by the Executive relating to or useable
in the Business then being carried on or actively contemplated by the Company now existing or hereafter developed shall become
the exclusive property of the Company. With respect to all inventive ideas originated or developed by the Executive which relate
to the Business during the Term hereof, or as to which the Executive has acquired information as a result of the Executive’s
employment with the Company, and all patents obtained on such inventive ideas, (a) the Executive agrees to disclose and assign,
without charge, all such inventive ideas and any patents obtained thereon to the Company, but without expense to the Executive,
(b) the Executive agrees that all such inventive ideas and any patents thereof shall be the exclusive property of the Company,
and (c) the Executive will, at any and all times, furnish such information and assistance and execute such applications and other
documents as may be advisable in the opinion of the Company to obtain both domestic and foreign patents, title to which is to
be vested in the Company, and the Executive shall give the Company the full and exclusive power to prosecute all such applications
and all proceedings in connection therewith.


 




    	10



     


    




 


ii.
Intellectual Property. The Executive shall promptly disclose to the Company or any successor or assign, and grant
to the Company or its successors and assigns without any separate remuneration or compensation other than that received by the
Executive in the course of the Executive’s employment, the Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to
any and all inventions, developments, discoveries, models, or business plans or opportunities, or any other intellectual property
of any type or nature whatsoever related to the Business or the Products (“Intellectual Property”), developed
by the Executive during the period of the Executive’s employment by the Company or its affiliates and whether developed
by the Executive during or after business hours, or alone or in connection with others, that is in any way related to the Business
of the Company, its successors or assigns. This provision shall not apply to books or articles authored by the Executive during
non-work hours, consistent with the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement, so long as such books or articles (a)
are not funded in whole or in part by the Company, and (b) do not contain any confidential information or Intellectual Property
of the Company. The Executive agrees, at the Company’s expense, to take all steps necessary or proper to vest title to all
such Intellectual Property in the Company, and cooperate fully and assist the Company in any litigation or other proceedings involving
any such Intellectual Property.


 


d.
Non-solicitation of Business. During the Term hereof and for a period of one (1) year after the termination or expiration
of this Agreement, regardless of who initiated the termination, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, solicit, interfere
with, or divert away from the Company any customer of the Company who did any business with the Company during the Term hereof.


 


e.
Non-enticement of Personnel. During the Term hereof and for a period of one (1) year after the termination or expiration
of this Agreement, regardless of who initiated the termination, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, as an individual
or on behalf of any other person or entity, hire, solicit, recruit, or attempt to entice away from the Company or any customer
of the Company any person employed by or providing services to the Company or any customer of the Company. The Executive shall
not approach any such employees for such a prohibited purpose and shall not knowingly cooperate in any other person or entity’s
efforts to do so. The Company’s customers are third-party beneficiaries of this covenant and shall have standing to enforce
the terms of this Section 11(e) by seeking whatever equitable and legal remedies may be available to the Company hereunder.


 


f.
Confidentiality. The Executive shall not at any time during the Term hereof or at any time thereafter communicate,
divulge, disclose, take, or use for himself any information, knowledge, data, or materials that were disclosed or obtained by
the Executive during the Term (including, without limitation, any information and knowledge that was conceived, created, or developed
by the Executive during the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company) which is related to the Business and
the Products and is not already generally known in the Company’s trade by competitors. This restriction on confidential
information disclosure and use shall apply to knowledge or information which relates to the Business or the business of the Company’s
customers and is in the nature of a business secret of the Company or the Company’s customers. Included within the scope
of this restriction shall be the specific items identified in Section 11(h) hereof and any other information and matters designated
by the Company (verbally or in writing) to be confidential during the Term hereof. The Company’s customers are third-party
beneficiaries of the aforestated covenants in this Section 11(f) and shall have standing to enforce its terms and seek whatever
equitable or legal remedy that is necessary to repay or avoid harm to them, including, but not limited to, any remedy available
to the Company under this Agreement. The obligations of the Executive with respect to the disclosure and use of confidential information
under this Section 11(f) shall cease to the extent such information becomes generally known in the Company’s trade by competitors
through a means other than a breach of this Agreement by the Executive. In the event the Executive is required by any legal proceedings
to disclose confidential information, the Executive shall provide the Company with prompt notice thereof so that the Company may
seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive compliance by the Executive with the provisions hereof.


 




    	11



     


    




 


g.
Non-competition. During the Term hereof and for a period of one (1) year after the termination or expiration of
this Agreement, regardless of who initiated the termination, the Executive shall not, alone, or as an agent, employee, servant,
officer, partner or stockholder of any other corporation or business, directly or indirectly, engage in employment or business
activity which relates to the sale, manufacturing, or marketing of products which are competitive with, substantially similar
to, or serve the same function as the Products manufactured, marketed or sold by the Company either now or at any time during
the Term. This post-termination restriction is limited to activities in or directed at the geographic area located in North America
where the Company has sold or manufactured the Products at any time during the Term hereof. The Executive specifically agrees,
without limitation, that the Executive will not accept a similar position or perform the same or similar responsibilities or services
as performed for the Company for any business entity that is engaged in a business that is the same, or substantially similar
to, the Business (i.e., a competitor).


 


h.
Return of Company Materials. Upon request at any time during the Term hereof and without request at the time of
the termination or expiration of this Agreement, without regard for who initiated the termination, the Executive agrees to promptly
return (without retaining any copies, summaries, files or notes derived from source materials) all information and records regarding
the Business and the Products, whether or not created by the Executive during the Term hereof including, but not be limited to:
all financial, sales and purchase data for the Business and the Company’s customers, all financial statements and projections,
all marketing surveys and analyses, all strategic planning material, all data on the Company’s competitors, all customer
information, all records regarding prospective customers of the Company, all documents regarding pending or threatened litigation
involving the Company, all legal opinions, all personnel evaluations for the Company’s employees and outside vendors and
contractors, all computer hardware and software, all price lists and formulas, all pricing quotations or proposals, all lists
or compilations of customers and prospects, all promotional materials, all internal operating reports, all budgets and projections,
all information related to the Company’s product development and intellectual property, all product designs, specifications,
drawing, engineering, bills of material and other information related to the Products, all corporate and equipment manuals and
policies, all contracts with customers and suppliers, all supplier prices and quotations, all business correspondence, all catalogs
and product samples, all sensitive customer information, all sales reports and invoices, and all tangible and intangible property
owned by the Company.


 


i.
Non-Disparagement. During the Term and thereafter, the Executive shall not knowingly, directly or indirectly, make
negative comments or otherwise disparage the Company, any of its affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees,
shareholders, agents or businesses in any manner likely to be harmful to them or their business reputations or personal reputations.
The Company shall direct its officers, directors and senior management team to not disparage or encourage or induce others to
disparage the Executive. The foregoing shall not be violated by truthful statements in response to legal process, required governmental
testimony or filings, or administrative or arbitral proceedings (including depositions in connection with such proceedings), provided
that the Executive has given the Company prompt written notice of any such legal process and cooperated with the Company’s
efforts to seek a protective order.


 


j.
Executive’s Representations. The Executive represents and acknowledges that none of the activity restrictions
set forth in this Section 11 will prevent the Executive from obtaining employment, cause undue hardship, cause a relocation, or
adversely impact numerous other business and employment opportunities that are not affected by the existence of these restrictions.
The Executive further acknowledges that the Executive believes the foregoing restrictions to be reasonable and necessary to protect
the Company’s legitimate business interests. Any violation of the restrictions in this Section 11 can cause harm to the
Company of an irreparable nature for which money damages alone will not suffice. The Executive agrees that the Executive will
fully and promptly disclose to any person or entity with which the Executive becomes associated subsequent to the termination
or expiration of this Agreement all of the restrictions on the Executive’s post-termination activities. The Company shall
also have the right to disclose this Agreement to any business entity hiring or utilizing the services of the Executive subsequent
to the termination or expiration of this Agreement.


 




    	12



     


    




 


k.
Common Law and Trade Secrets. The Executive and the Company agree that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed
to limit or negate the common law of torts or trade secrets where it provides the Company with broader protection than that provided
herein.


 


l.
Tolling. In the event of any violation of the provisions of this Section 11, the Executive acknowledges and agrees
that the post-termination restrictions contained in this Section 11 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period
of such violation, it being the intention of the Parties hereto that the running of the applicable post-termination restriction
period shall be tolled during any period of such violation.


 


m.
Rights and Remedies upon Breach. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that any breach by the Executive of any of
the provisions of Section 11 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) would result in irreparable injury and damage for
which money damages would not provide an adequate remedy. Therefore, if the Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach
of, any of the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company and its affiliates shall have the following rights and remedies,
each of which rights and remedies shall be independent of the other and severally enforceable, and all of which rights and remedies
shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company and its affiliates, under
law or in equity (including, without limitation, the recovery of damages):


 


i.
the right and remedy to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced (without posting bond and without the need to prove
damages) by any court of competent jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the right to an entry against the Executive of
restraining orders and injunctions (preliminary, mandatory, temporary and permanent) against violations, threatened or actual,
and whether or not then continuing, of such covenants; and


 


ii.
the right and remedy to require the Executive to account for and pay over to the Company or any of its affiliates all compensation,
profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits (collectively, “Benefits”) derived or received by the
Executive as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants, and the Executive shall account
for and pay over such Benefits to the Company and, if applicable, its affected affiliates.


 


12.
Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company’s successors
and assigns and the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees
and legatees. This Agreement shall not be assignable by the Executive, it being understood and agreed that this is a contract
for the Executive’s personal services. This Agreement shall not be assignable by the Company, except that the Company may
assign it to an affiliate of the Company and shall assign it in connection with a transaction involving the succession by a third
party to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase,
merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise). When assigned to a successor, the assignee shall assume this Agreement and expressly
agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform it in the
absence of such an assignment and the Company shall be released of all obligations hereunder. For all purposes under this Agreement,
the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets that executes and delivers
the assumption agreement described in the immediately preceding sentence or that becomes bound by this Agreement by operation
of law. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns
as provided in this Section 12 and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person, except
as otherwise set forth in this Agreement.

13.
Alternative Dispute Resolution.


 


a.
Coverage. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or by law, this Section 13 is the sole and exclusive
method by which the Executive and the Company are required to resolve any and all disputes arising out of or related to the Executive’s

or other terms or conditions of the Executive’s employment, (ii) application or enforcement of any Company program or policy

the Executive’s employment, performance or termination, (iv) any policy of the Company or any agreement between the Executive
and the Company, (v) disputes over the arbitrability of any controversy or claim which arguably is or may be subject to this Section
13, (vi) claims arising out of or related to any current or future federal, state or local civil rights laws, fair employment
laws, wage and hour laws, fair labor or employment standards laws, laws against discrimination, equal pay laws, wage and salary
payment laws, plant or facility closing or layoff laws, laws in regard to employment benefits or protections, family and medical
leave laws, and whistleblower laws, including by way of example, but not limited to, the federal Civil Rights Acts of 1866, 1871,
1964 and 1991, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Equal Pay Act of
1963, the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993,
and the Executive Retirement Income Security Act of 1978, as they have been or may be amended from time to time, or (vii) any
other dispute arising out of or related to the Executive’s employment or the Executive’s termination.


 


b.
Negotiation; Mediation. Any Employment-Related Dispute asserted by one Party against the other Party shall be delivered
in writing to the other Party. During the fifteen (15)-day period following receipt of the assertion by the other Party, the Parties
shall attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the Employment-Related Disputes so asserted. If the Employment-Related
Disputes so asserted cannot be settled through negotiation and remains unresolved after the fifteen (15)-day negotiation period,
the Executive or the Company may submit the dispute to mediation and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute
by mediation, under the mediation procedure of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Unless the Parties
agree otherwise in writing, the mediation shall be conducted by a single mediator, and the mediator shall be selected from an
appropriate AAA panel pursuant to the AAA rules, respectively. The mediation shall be conducted in Denver, Colorado. Unless the
Parties agree otherwise, the cost of the mediator’s professional fees and expenses and any reasonable administrative fee
will be shared and paid equally by the Parties, and each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs of the mediation.


 


c.
Binding Arbitration. If the Employment-Related Disputes so asserted cannot be settled through mediation and remains
unresolved thirty (30) days after the appointment of a mediator, the Executive or the Company may submit the dispute to arbitration
and the dispute shall be settled in arbitration. Notice of a demand to arbitrate a dispute by either Party shall be given in writing
to the other at their last known address. Arbitration shall be commenced by the filing by a party of an arbitration demand with
the AAA in its office in Denver, Colorado. The arbitration and resolution of the dispute shall be resolved by a single arbitrator
appointed by the AAA pursuant to AAA rules. The arbitration shall in all respects be governed and conducted by applicable AAA
rules, and any award and/or decision shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in Denver,
Colorado regardless of the particular plant or facility of the Parties. The arbitrator shall supply a written opinion supporting
any award, and judgment may be entered on the award in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each Party shall pay its own fees
and expenses for the arbitration except for any costs and charges imposed by the AAA which may be assessed against the losing
Party by the arbitrator. Any fees of the arbitrator for the arbitrator’s services shall in all events be shared and paid
equally by the Parties.

d.
Equitable Relief. In the event that preliminary or permanent injunctive relief is necessary or desirable in order
to prevent a Party from acting contrary to this Agreement or to prevent irreparable harm prior to a confirmation of an arbitration
award, including without limitation as provided under Section 14(h) hereof, then either Party is authorized and entitled to commence
a lawsuit solely to obtain equitable relief against the other pending the completion of the arbitration in a court having jurisdiction
over the Parties. All rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies
obtainable from arbitration.


 


e.
Severability. In the event that any court or arbitrator finds or holds any restriction contained in this Agreement,
including the Restrictive Covenants, to be unreasonable, invalid, or unenforceable, then it is the express intent of the Parties
that the court or arbitrator so holding shall modify or amend the offending restriction or restrictions in any reasonable fashion
so as to render it or them enforceable to the fullest extent possible under prevailing law. In the event that any restriction
is deemed void and unenforceable and not suitable or capable of being so modified, then such restriction shall be severed. Each
term and provision of this Agreement is and shall be construed as severable in whole or in part, and, if any provision or the
application thereof to particular circumstances should be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, then the remaining terms and provisions
shall not be affected and shall remain fully enforceable. An adjudication or finding of invalidity or unenforceability for one
jurisdiction of any particular provision shall not invalidate or void such provision in any other jurisdiction. It is the express
intent of the Parties that all restrictions imposed by this Agreement be construed and applied to avoid legal nullities and with
a view towards enforcement whenever possible


 


14.
Miscellaneous.


 


a.

or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any Party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise
of any such right.
