A.           Job
Title and Responsibilities.
The Company hereby employs Employee, and Employee hereby agrees to be employed, as President reporting to the Chief Executive
Officer. Employee’s title and responsibilities may change during the course of Employee’s employment with Employer,
but the terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any change in Employee’s title or responsibilities.


 


B.           Full-Time
Best Efforts. Employee agrees to devote
Employee’s full professional time and attention to the business of the Company (and
its subsidiaries, affiliates, or related entities) and the performance of Employee’s obligations under this Agreement, and
will at all times faithfully, industriously and to the best of Employee’s ability, experience and talent, perform all of Employee’s
obligations hereunder. Employee shall not, at any time during Employee’s employment by the Company, directly or indirectly, act
as a partner, officer, director, consultant, employee, or provide services in any other capacity to any other business enterprise
that conflicts with the Company’s business or Employee’s duty of loyalty to the Company. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, Employee has disclosed that he currently serves on the board of directors of two companies. Employee shall seek
the written consent of the Company prior to accepting any further outside board positions or prior to materially expanding his
role on the current boards on which he serves.


 


C.           Duty
of Loyalty. Employee
acknowledges that during Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee has participated in and will participate in relationships
with existing and prospective clients, customers, partners, suppliers, service providers and vendors of the Company that are essential
elements of the Company’s goodwill. The parties acknowledge that Employee owes the Company a fiduciary duty to conduct all
affairs of the Company in accordance with all applicable laws and the highest standards of good faith, trust, confidence and candor,
and to endeavor, to the best of Employee’s ability, to promote the best interests of the Company.


 


D.           Conflict
of Interest. Employee agrees that while employed by the Company, and except with
the advance written consent of a duly authorized officer of the Company, Employee will not enter into, on behalf of the Company,
or cause the Company or any of its affiliates to enter into, directly or indirectly, any transactions with any business organization
in which Employee or any member of Employee’s immediate family may be interested as a shareholder, partner, member, trustee,
director, officer, employee, consultant, lender or guarantor or otherwise; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall
restrict transactions between the Company and any company whose stock is listed on a national securities exchange or actively
traded in the over-the-counter market and over which Employee does not have the ability to control or significantly influence
policy decisions.

vesting to occur. Upon a Change in Control as defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan, the entire
Option shall immediately be 100% vested without regard to the schedule contained in the Option agreement and the entire Option
shall become immediately exercisable in full during its remaining term.

8.                 INVENTIONS.


 


A.           Inventions
Retained and Licensed. Attached as Exhibit
A is a list describing all inventions and information created, discovered or developed by Employee, whether or not patentable
or registrable under patent, copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by Employee, either
alone or with others before Employee’s employment with the Company (“Prior Inventions”), which belong in whole
or in part to Employee, and which are not being assigned by Employee to the Company. Employee represents that Exhibit A is complete
and contains no confidential or proprietary information belonging to a person or entity other than Employee. Employee acknowledges
and agrees that Employee has no rights in any Inventions (as that term is defined below) other than the Prior Inventions listed
on Exhibit A. If there is nothing identified on Exhibit A, Employee represents that there are no Prior Inventions as of the time

into a Company product, process or machine a Prior Invention owned by Employee or in which Employee has an interest, the Company
is hereby granted and shall have a non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, world-wide license to make, have made,
modify, use, create derivative works from and sell such Prior Invention as part of or in connection with such product, process
or machine.

B.           Assignment
Of Inventions. Employee shall promptly make
full, written disclosure to the Company, will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of the Company, and hereby irrevocably
transfers and assigns, and agrees to transfer and assign, to the Company, or its designee, all his/her right, title and interest
in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, improvements, designs, discoveries, ideas,
trademarks (and all associated goodwill), mask works, or trade secrets, whether or not they may be patented or registered under
copyright or similar laws, which Employee may solely or jointly conceive or develop or reduce to
practice, or cause to be conceived or developed or reduced to practice, during Employee’s employment by the Company (the
“Inventions”). Employee further acknowledges that all original works of authorship which are made by Employee (solely
or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the period of his/her employment with the Company and which may be protected
by copyright are “Works Made For Hire” as that term is defined by the United States Copyright Act. Employee understands
and agrees that the decision whether to commercialize or market any Invention developed by Employee solely or jointly with others
is within the Company’s sole discretion and the Company’s sole benefit and that no royalty will be due to Employee as a result
of the Company’s efforts to commercialize or market any such invention.


 


Employee
recognizes that Inventions relating to his or her activities while working for the Company and conceived or made by Employee, whether
alone or with others, within one (1) year after cessation of Employee’s employment, may have been conceived in significant
part while employed by the Company. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges and agrees that such Inventions shall be presumed to have
been conceived during Employee’s employment with the Company and are to be, and hereby are, assigned to the Company unless and
until Employee has established the contrary.


 


C.           Maintenance
of Records. Employee agrees to keep and maintain
adequate and current written records of all Inventions made by Employee (solely or jointly with others) during his/her employment
with the Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings and any other format that may be specified by the
Company. The records will be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times.


 


D.           Patent,
Trademark and Copyright Registrations. Employee
agrees to assist the Company, or its designee, at the Company’s expense, in every proper way to secure the Company’s rights in
the Inventions and any copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks, mask works, or any other intellectual property rights in
any and all countries relating thereto, including, but not limited to, the disclosure to the Company of all pertinent information
and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other instruments
the Company reasonably deems necessary in order to apply for and obtain such rights and in order to assign and convey to the Company,
its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole and exclusive rights, title, and interest in and to such inventions, and any copyrights,
patents, trademarks, service marks, mask works, or any other intellectual property rights relating thereto. Employee further agrees
that his/her obligation to execute or cause to be executed, when it is in his/her power to do so, any such instrument or paper
shall continue after termination or expiration of this Agreement or the cessation of his/her employment with the Company. If the
Company is unable because of Employee’s mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason, after reasonably diligent efforts,
to secure Employee’s signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents, trademarks or
copyright registrations covering inventions or original works of authorship assigned to the Company as above, then Employee hereby
irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Employee’s agent and attorney-in-fact
to act for and in his/her behalf and stead to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts
to further the prosecution and issuance of letters patent, trademarks or copyright registrations thereon with the same legal force
and effect as if executed by Employee; this power of attorney shall be a durable power of attorney which shall come into existence
upon Employee’s mental or physical incapacity.

9.                 SURVIVAL
AND REMEDIES. Employee’s obligations of nondisclosure, nonsolicitation,
noninterference, and noncompetition under this Agreement shall survive the cessation of Employee’s employment with the Company
and shall remain enforceable. In addition, Employee acknowledges that upon a breach or threatened breach of any obligation of
nondisclosure, nonsolicitation, noninterference, or noncompetition of this Agreement, the Company may suffer irreparable harm
and damage for which money alone cannot fully compensate the Company. Employee therefore agrees that upon such breach or threat
of imminent breach of any such obligation, the Company shall be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction,
permanent injunction or other injunctive relief, without posting any bond or other security, barring Employee from violating any
such provision. This Paragraph shall not be construed as an election of any remedy, or as a waiver of any right available to the
Company under this Agreement or the law, including the right to seek damages from Employee for a breach of any provision of this
Agreement and the right to require Employee to account for and pay over to the Company all profits or other benefits derived or
received by Employee as the result of such a breach, nor shall this Paragraph be construed to limit the rights or remedies available
under state law for any violation of any provision of this Agreement.


 


10.              RETURN
OF COMPANY PROPERTY. All devices, records, reports, data,
notes, compilations, lists, proposals, correspondence, specifications, equipment, drawings, blueprints, manuals, DayTimers, planners,
calendars, schedules, discs, data tapes, financial plans and information, or other recorded matter, whether in hard copy, magnetic
media or otherwise (including all copies or reproductions made or maintained, whether on the Company’s premises or otherwise),
pertaining to Employee’s work for the Company, or relating to the Company or the Company’s Proprietary Information, whether
created or developed by Employee alone or jointly during his/her employment with the Company, are the exclusive property of the
Company. Employee shall surrender the same (as well as any other property of the Company) to the Company upon its request or promptly
upon the cessation of employment. Upon cessation of Employee’s employment, Employee agrees to sign and deliver the “Termination
Certificate” attached as Exhibit B, which shall detail all Company property that is surrendered upon cessation of employment


 


11.              NO
CONFLICTING AGREEMENTS OR IMPROPER USE OF THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION.
During her/his employment with the Company, Employee shall not improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade
secrets of any former employer or other person or entity, and Employee shall not bring on to the premises of the Company any unpublished
document or proprietary information belonging to any such former employer, person or entity, unless consented to in writing by
the former employer, person or entity. Employee represents that he/she has not improperly used or disclosed any proprietary information
or trade secrets of any other person or entity during the application process or while employed or affiliated with the Company.
Employee also acknowledges and agrees that he/she is not subject to any contract, agreement, or understanding that would prevent
Employee from performing his/her duties for the Company or otherwise complying with this Agreement. To the extent Employee violates
this provision, or his/her employment with the Company constitutes a breach or threatened breach of any contract, agreement, or
obligation to any third party, Employee shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless from all damages, expenses, costs (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liabilities incurred in connection with, or resulting from, any such violation or threatened
violation.
