Employee shall report to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”)of the Company and to the Board of Directors of the Company (“the Board”) or its designee, the CEO. Employee shall have such responsibilities as may, from time to
time, be duly authorized or directed by the CEO or the Board. A basic description of duties and responsibilities is included in Appendix A. During his employment, Employee shall perform faithfully and loyally and to the best of his abilities the

employment, be engaged in any other business activity whether or not such business activity is pursued for gain, profit or other pecuniary advantage, without the prior written consent of the Board. The foregoing is not intended to restrict
Employee’s ability to engage in charitable, civic or community activities to the extent that such activities do not materially interfere with his duties hereunder and are notified in writing to the Company, 


 

	 	(A)	Notwithstanding the preceding, the Company agrees that the Employee may maintain his pre-existing business interest in XXXXX so long as any activities associated with XXXX are undertaken on Employee’s personal
time, do not interfere with his ability to perform his duties for the Company, and that the business interests of XXX in no way compare with those of the Company. 


 

	1.2	Employee shall immediately upon the Company’s request supply any and all information which the Company or any Group Company may reasonably require in order to be able to comply with any statutory or regulatory
provision or stock exchange rule or requirement, including for the avoidance of doubt the Rules for AIM Companies published by the London Stock Exchange. 









	1.3	Employee shall comply with the provisions of the code of dealing adopted by the Company in accordance with the requirements of the London Stock Exchange or, in the absence of the adoption of such a code, with the
provisions of the Model Code set out in the Listing Rules published by the UK Listing Authority and Employee shall not do or omit to do anything which could result in the Company being in breach of the Rules for AIM Companies published by the London
Stock Exchange.

	2.1	The employment of Employee shall, subject to the provisions of clause 6, continue unless and until terminated by: 

  

	 	(A)	The Company giving to Employee not less than one (1) months’ notice during Employee’s first twelve (12) months of employment; or 


 

	 	(B)	Employee giving to the Company not less than one (1) months’ notice during Employee’s first twelve (12) months of employment.

	 	(D)	The Company and Employee each giving to the other not less than six (6) months’ notice during Employee’s third twelve (12) months of employment. 


 

	2.2	The Company reserves the right at any time, in its absolute discretion, to terminate Employee’s employment by paying to Employee a sum equal to his basic salary and benefits for the relevant period of notice which
shall be subject to deductions for taxes as appropriate. Employee agrees to accept any such payment in lieu of notice as being in full and final settlement of any claim he may have for wages, salary or compensation arising out of his employment, its
termination and/or the resignation of any directorship. 

  

	2.3	The Company may make a payment pursuant to clause 3.2 regardless of whether or by whom notice under clause 3.1 has been given and in respect of the whole or the balance of the notice period which would otherwise be
required under that clause. 

  

	2.4	For the avoidance of doubt, the right of the Company to make a payment in lieu of notice does not give rise to any right of Employee to demand such payment. 


 

	2.5	After notice of termination has been given by either party or if Employee seeks to resign without notice or by giving shorter notice than is required under this clause 3, provided that the Company continues to pay
Employee his Base Salary and to provide all contractual benefits until his employment terminates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company has absolute discretion for all or part of the notice period to: 


 

	 	(A)	exclude Employee from such of the premises of the Company and/or Group Company as the Board may direct;

 As compensation for the services to be rendered by Employee pursuant to
this Agreement, the Company shall pay to Employee the following compensation: 
  

	3.1	Base Salary 

 During his employment, the Company shall pay to Employee a base salary at
the rate of $225,000 per annum (“Base Salary”), payable on the Company’s regular payroll schedule. The Company shall deduct from the Base Salary paid to Employee the required federal, state and local withholding taxes, as well
as any other authorized deductions. Such salary shall be reviewed (with the outcome of such review being at the absolute discretion of the Board) annually in each calendar year without commitment to increase. 

 

	3.1A	Options 

 Employee shall be granted ninety thousand (90,000) options exercisable for
the Company’s Common Stock for each year of employment under this contract; such options to be vested at the end of each year of employment. The exercise price for the initial tranche of 90,000 Options is to be the closing price of the
Company’s stock on the AIM as recorded on the day of signing of this contract. The exercise price for option grants in succeeding years will be the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the AIM (or other public market where the
Company may be listed) on each annual anniversary of the signing of this contract. Options shall have an exercise period of seven years from the date of vesting. 
  

	3.2	Bonus 

 Employee may receive an annual bonus up to 25% of his Base Salary, plus stock
options (in addition to those defined in 3.1A) as determined by the Company at the end of its fiscal year. Such bonus, if any, may be granted at the sole discretion of the Board and will be based on the achievement of financial targets and on other
performance criteria to be established by the Board under its Equity Incentive Plan. Employee will not be entitled to any such bonus payment if he is not employed or is under notice to terminate employment from either party at the date that payment
would ordinarily be made. 
  

	3.3	Benefit Plans 

 Except as provided more specifically herein, Employee shall be entitled
to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans or programs available to regular full-time exempt employees of the Company and their families, provided that Employee meets all eligibility requirements under those plans or programs.
Unless otherwise provided

herein, Employee’s participation in the employee benefit plans or programs shall be subject to the terms and conditions of said plans or programs including, without limitation, the
Company’s right to amend, revise, terminate or replace the plans or programs at any time and without notice to participants. Any reduction, alteration or enhancement of the benefit plans and programs shall not be deemed to be a breach of this
Agreement by the Company and it is agreed between the parties that the Company shall have no liability to pay any benefit to Employee (or any of his family members) unless it receives payment of the benefit from the insurer under the scheme and
shall not be responsible for providing Employee (or any of his family members) with any benefit under any scheme in the event that the relevant insurer refuses for whatever reason to pay or provide or to continue to pay or provide that benefit to
Employee (or any of his family members). Appendix B provides a summary of the Company’s current benefit plan. 
  

	3.4	Expense Reimbursement 

 The Company shall reimburse Employee, subject to his compliance
with the Company’s then current guidelines relating to expenses, for all proper and reasonable expenses incurred by him in the performance of his duties hereunder, subject to his compliance with the Company’s then current guidelines
relating to expenses. 
  

	4.	VACATION 

  

	4.1	Employee shall be entitled to twenty (20) working days’ vacation (in addition to the normal public holidays) in each calendar year commencing on January 1 in each year and which shall accrue on a pro rata
monthly basis. Vacation shall be taken at such times as the Board shall consider most convenient having regard to the requirements of the Company’s business. 


 

	4.2	Save with the prior written consent of the Company, untaken vacation entitlement for any one calendar year which is not used may not be carried forward to any subsequent year. 


 

	4.3	On termination of Employee’s employment (howsoever occasioned), if Employee has taken more or less than his annual vacation entitlement an appropriate adjustment shall be made to any payment of salary or benefits
from the Company to Employee. In this event the calculation shall be made on the basis that each day of holiday is worth 1/260 of his Base Salary. 

  

	5.	TERMINATION 

  

	5.1	Death 

 Upon the death of Employee, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and all
rights of Employee and his heirs, executors and administrators to compensation and other benefits under this Agreement shall cease. Termination of benefits does not terminate paid-in pension plans, any and all options or other forms of equity that
may have been vested and are owned by Employee. 

  
 4 









	5.2	Disability 

 The Company may, at its option, terminate this Agreement upon written notice
to Employee due to Employee’s disability. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means Employee’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness to substantially perform his duties on a full-time basis for at least twelve
consecutive weeks or an aggregate period in excess of twenty-four weeks in any one fiscal year and, within 30 days after a notice of termination of this Agreement, Employee shall not have returned to the full-time performance of the duties
hereunder. Upon such termination, all obligations of the Company hereunder shall cease. In the event of any dispute regarding the existence of Employee’s incapacity hereunder, the matter shall be resolved by the determination of a physician to
be mutually selected and agreed upon by the Company and Employee. In the absence of an agreement between the Company and Employee, each party shall nominate a qualified physician and the two physicians shall select a third physician who shall then
make the determination as to disability. Employee agrees that he will submit to appropriate medical examinations for purposes of such determination.
