    to be an affiliate by regulatory agencies.

   

  (vii)       “Original
        Award Documents” means, with respect to any stock option or other equity award, the terms and provisions of the award
    agreement related to and the plan governing, such stock option or other equity award, each as in effect on the Executive’s
    termination date.

   

  (viii)       “Termination
        Date” means the date the Company specifies in writing to the Executive in connection with the exercise of its Termination
    Right.

   

  (ix)       “Termination
        Right” means the right of the Company, in its sole, absolute and unfettered discretion, to terminate the Executive’s
    employment under this Agreement for any reason or no reason whatsoever.

   

  (d)          Section
      409A.  It is intended that payments and benefits under this Agreement either be excluded from or comply with the requirements
    of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) and the guidance issued thereunder and, accordingly, to
    the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted consistent with such intent. In the event that any provision
    of this Agreement is subject to but fails to comply with Section 409A, the Company may revise the terms of the provision to correct
    such noncompliance to the extent permitted under any guidance, procedure or other method promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service
    now or in the future or otherwise available that provides for such correction as a means to avoid or mitigate any taxes, interest
    or penalties that would otherwise be incurred by the Executive on account of such noncompliance. Provided, however, that in no
    event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty imposed upon or other detriment suffered
    by the Executive under Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Section 409A. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits
    provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A to the extent that
    such reimbursements or in-kind benefits are subject to Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirements that (i) any
    reimbursement is for expenses incurred during the Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this
    Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible
    for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last
    day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject
    to set off or liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. For purposes of Section 409A, the Executive’s right to any installment
    payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment
    under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within
    thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within
    the sole discretion of the Company.

    by the Company and assumed, continued or substituted by the surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or the surviving or

    vesting conditions immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall fully vest immediately and become immediately

  (f)       If
    any payment or benefit (whether or not pursuant to this Agreement) the Executive would receive in connection with a Change in Control
    from the Company or otherwise (the “Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment”
    within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this paragraph, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
    4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive shall have the option to select one of the following
    two alternative forms of payment: (A) payment in full of the entire amount of the Payment, or (B) payment of only a part of the
    Payment so that the Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a “Reduced
        Payment”). If the Executive elects to receive a Reduced Payment, the reduction in payments and/or benefits shall
    occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in the reverse chronological order in which otherwise payable; (B)
    cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards other than stock options; (C) cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock
    options; and (D) reduction of other benefits paid to the Executive in the reverse chronological order in which otherwise payable.

    vesting shall be canceled in the reverse order of the date of grant and, in the case of a particular grant, in the reverse chronological
    order in which the grant would otherwise vest.

    independent registered public accounting firm or law firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations,
    together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and the Executive within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date
    on which the Executive’s right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by the Company or the Executive) or such
    other time as requested by the Company or Executive. Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm or law firm made hereunder
    shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive.

  (ii)       “Competitive
        Business” means any enterprise (including a person, firm, business, division, or other unit, whether or not incorporated)
    that is engaged or actively preparing to engage in any phase of the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing of products
    or services which compete with the products and services being developed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Company and/or
    any of its Affiliates on the Termination Date or during the twenty-four (24) month period immediately preceding the Termination
    Date.

   

  (b)          Nondisclosure
      of Confidential Information. The Executive will hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company all Confidential
    Information obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment (whether prior to or after the Commencement Date)

    Company.  For a period of five (5) years after the Termination Date, the Executive agrees (i) not to communicate,

    the Company any Confidential Information in his possession, including any duplicates thereof and any notes or other records the

    regularly (x) makes contact with customers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (y) conducts the business of the
    Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (z) supervises the activities of other employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries,
    and in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries engages in Competitive Business as of the Termination Date (collectively,
    the “Subject Areas”), the Executive will restrict his activities within the Subject Areas as follows:

    experience or reputation to be used in connection with, the ownership, management, operation or control of, any company or other
    business enterprise engaged in the Competitive Business within any of the Subject Areas; provided, however, that nothing contained
    herein will prohibit the Executive from making passive investments as long as the Executive does not beneficially own more than
    2% of the equity interests of a business enterprise engaged in the Competitive Business within any of the Subject Areas. For purposes
    of this paragraph, “beneficially own” will have the same meaning ascribed to that term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange
    Act;

   

  (ii)       The
    Executive will not call upon any customer of the Company or its subsidiaries for the purpose of soliciting, diverting or enticing

    	 	 8	 


  

  
     

  

  
   

  (iii)       The
    Executive will not solicit, induce, influence or attempt to influence any supplier, lessor, lessee, licensor, partner, joint venturer,
    potential acquiree or any other person who has a business relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries, or who on the Termination
    Date is engaged in discussions or negotiations to enter into a business relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries, to
    discontinue or reduce or limit the extent of such relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries; and

   

  (iv)       Without
    the consent of the Company, the Executive will not make contact with any of the employees of the Company or its subsidiaries with
    whom he had contact during the course of his employment with the Company for the purpose of soliciting such employee for hire,
    whether as an employee or independent contractor, or otherwise disrupting such employee’s relationship with the Company
    or its subsidiaries.

   

  (d)          Company
      Property.  Promptly following the Executive’s termination of employment, the Executive shall return to the Company all
    property of the Company, and all copies thereof in the Executive’s possession or under the Executive’s control, except
    that the Executive may retain the Executive’s personal notes, diaries, rolodexes, mobile devices, calendars and correspondence
    of a personal nature.

   

  (e)           Equitable
      Remedies. The Executive acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably injured by a violation of Section 5 and the
    Executive agrees that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, on
    meeting the standards required by law, shall be entitled to a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, or other equivalent
    relief, restraining the Executive from any actual or threatened breach of Section 5. If a bond is required to be posted in
    order for the Company to secure an injunction or other equitable remedy, the parties agree that said bond need not be more than
    a nominal sum.

    the terms and conditions of the Invention Assignment Agreement and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement
    shall control. All non-conflicting terms of the Invention Assignment Agreement are hereby expressly preserved.

   

  (g)          Severability;
      Blue Pencil. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Executive has had the opportunity to seek advice of counsel in
    connection with this Agreement and the restrictive covenants contained herein are reasonable in geographical scope temporal duration
    and in all other respects. If it is determined that any provision of this Section 5 is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder
    of the provisions of this Section 5 shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid
    portions. If any court or other decision-maker of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the covenants in this Section 5
    is unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, then after such determination becomes final and
    unappealable, the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that such provision becomes enforceable,
    and in its reduced form, such provision shall be enforced.

  (a)           This
    Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive
    otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
    by the Executive’s legal representatives.

   

  (b)           This
    Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns and any party acting in
    the form of a receiver or trustee capacity.

   

  (c)           The
    Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially
    all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and
    to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement,
    “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid
    which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.

   

  		7.	Miscellaneous.


   

  (a)           This
    Agreement shall be construed, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder determined, in accordance with the substantive
    laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.  For the purposes of any suit, action
    or proceeding based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, the
    parties hereby expressly submit to the jurisdiction of all federal and state courts sitting within the confines of the United
    States District Court for the District of Minnesota (the “Venue Area”) and consent that any order, process,
    notice of motion or other application to or by any such court or a judge thereof may be served within or without such court’s
    jurisdiction by registered mail or by personal service in accordance with Section 7(b).  The parties agree that such courts
    shall have the exclusive jurisdiction over any such suit, action or proceeding commenced by either or both of said parties. 
    Each party hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action
    or proceeding based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, brought
    in any federal or state court sitting within the confines of the Venue Area and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that
    any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The captions of this
    Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified
    otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

    notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other party or by registered

  or to such other address as either party
    shall have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith. Notice and communications shall be effective when actually
    received by the addressee.

   

  (c)           The
    invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
    provision of this Agreement.

   

  (d)           The
    Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Executive and hold the Employee harmless to the extent provided under Certificate of Incorporation
    and the By-Laws of the Company and that certain Indemnity Agreement, dated March 1, 2016, between the Company and the Executive
    (the “Indemnity Agreement”) against and in respect of any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims,
    demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), losses, and damages resulting from the Executive’s
    good faith performance of the Executive’s duties and obligations with the Company. This obligation shall survive the termination
    of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

   

  (e)           From
    and after the Commencement Date, the Company shall cover the Executive under directors’ and officers’ liability insurance
    both during and, while potential liability exists, after the Employment Period in the same amount and to the same extent as the
    Company covers its other executive officers and directors.

   

  (f)            The
    Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such Federal, state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required
    to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

   

  (g)           The
    Executive’s or the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the
    failure to assert any right the Executive or the Company may have hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision
    of right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.

   

  (h)           The
    Company will require any successor to or assignee of (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise)
    all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (i) to assume unconditionally and expressly this Agreement and (ii) to agree
    to perform all of the obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as would have been required of
    the Company had no assignment or succession occurred, such assumption to be set forth in a writing reasonably satisfactory to
    the Executive. In the event of any such assignment or succession, the term “Company” as used in this Agreement will
    refer also to such successor or assign.

  (i)            This
    Agreement, the Invention Assignment Agreements, the Indemnity Agreement, the Original Award Documents and all agreements, documents,
    instruments, schedules, exhibits or certificates prepared in connection herewith, and as of the Commencement Date represent the
    entire understanding and agreement between the Company and the Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersede
    all prior understandings, agreements or negotiations between such parties, whether written or oral, including, without limitation,
    the Prior Agreements, and may be amended, supplemented or changed only by an agreement in writing which makes specific reference
    to this Agreement or the agreement or document delivered pursuant hereto, as the case may be, and which is signed by the party
    against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement or modification is sought. If any of the terms and conditions of this
    Agreement conflict with the terms and conditions of the Original Award Documents, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall
    control. All non-conflicting terms of the Original Award Documents are hereby expressly preserved.

   

  (j)            This
    Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by facsimile, each of which shall constitute an original and all of
    which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures of the parties transmitted by facsimile or via .pdf format
    shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,”
    and words of like import shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of
    which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
    recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic
    Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the Minnesota Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any other similar state
    laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection
    with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic
    mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as an
    original agreement or instrument and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed
    version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party
    hereto or thereto will re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such
    agreement or instrument will raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement
    or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract,
    and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense related to lack of authenticity.
