other information, without notice to the Company. This Agreement does not limit Executive’s right to receive an award for
information provided to any Government Agencies. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Executive’s participation in any
legal proceedings against the Company or any Released Party in compliance with a summons that requires such participation, or
Executive’s initiation of or participation in administrative proceedings or investigations of the EEOC or other governmental
agencies; provided, however, that this Agreement shall prevent Executive from receiving any monetary or financial damages or recoveries

Company or any Released Party that may violate any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation.

Defend Trade Secrets Act Disclaimer.


 


a.
Nothing in this Agreement is intended to discourage or restrict Executive from reporting any theft of trade secrets pursuant to
the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (the “DTSA”) or other applicable state or federal law. The DTSA prohibits retaliation
against an employee because of whistleblower activity in connection with the disclosure of trade secrets, so long as any such
disclosure is made either (i) in confidence to an attorney or a federal, state, or local government official and solely to report
or investigate a suspected violation of the law, or (ii) under seal in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other
proceeding.


 


b.
If Executive believes that any employee or any third party has misappropriated or improperly used or disclosed trade secrets or
Confidential Information, Executive should report such activity to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. This Agreement
is in addition to and not in lieu of any obligations to protect the Company’s trade secrets and Confidential Information
which otherwise exist. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit, curtail or diminish the Company’s statutory rights under the
DTSA, any applicable state law regarding trade secrets or common law.

12.
Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without giving
effect to the principles of conflicts of law under Florida law that would require or permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction
other than the State of Florida and irrespective of the fact that the parties now or at any time may be residents of or engage
in activities in a different state. Executive agrees that in the event of any dispute or claim arising under this Agreement, jurisdiction
and venue shall be vested and proper, and Executive hereby consents to the jurisdiction of any court sitting in Tampa, Florida,
including the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.

by the duly authorized officers or principals and in the manner required by all laws and regulations applicable to each such entity.

e-mail shall be deemed original signatures.


 


17.
Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party identified herein, and nothing
in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any
nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. The Company may assign this Agreement to any successors (whether direct
or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to the business and/or assets of the Company.


 


18.
Confidentiality. So long as no party to this Agreement has a reasonable basis to believe that another party to this Agreement
is violating or preparing to violate the terms of this Agreement, except as required by any governmental or quasi-governmental
entity (including but not limited to required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission), the parties agree that this
Agreement, its terms and provisions and all correspondence and discussions related to this Agreement, shall be kept privileged
and strictly confidential by each party from the date hereof into the future; provided, however, (a) Executive may disclose this
information to her immediate family, tax advisors and accountants and (b) the Company shall be permitted to advise any party it
believes to be a prospective employer of Executive as to the dates of Executive’s employment with the Company and Executive’s
