all precautions necessary to ensure that the Confidential Information shall not be, or be permitted to be, shown, copied or disclosed to third parties, without the prior written consent of the
Company or any Affiliated Entity, (iv) observe all security policies implemented by the Company or any Affiliated Entity from time to time with respect to the Confidential Information, and (v) not use or disclose, directly or indirectly,
as an individual or as a partner, joint venturer, employee, agent, salesman, contractor, officer, director or otherwise, for the benefit of himself or herself or any other person, partnership, firm, corporation, association or other legal entity,
any Confidential Information, unless expressly permitted by this Agreement. Contractor agrees that protection of the Company’s and any Affiliated Entity’s Confidential Information constitutes a legitimate business interest justifying the
restrictive covenants contained herein. Contractor further agrees that the restrictive covenants contained herein are reasonably necessary to protect the Company’s and any Affiliated Entity’s legitimate business interest in preserving its
Confidential Information. In addition, Contractor will not view or access any PI or PHI unless required and authorized by the Company to do so. Contractor acknowledges that he/she shall bear all costs, losses and damages resulting from any
intentional breach of this paragraph, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. 
 b. In the event that the Contractor
is ordered to disclose any Confidential Information, whether in a legal or regulatory proceeding or otherwise, such disclosure shall be limited to the narrowest disclosure so required and, except to the extent prohibited by law, Contractor shall
give the Company or any Affiliated Entities at least two (2) weeks’ notice, if practicable, of the basis for any such compelled disclosure of Confidential Information and shall reasonably cooperate with the Company or any Affiliated
Entities in limiting disclosure and obtaining suitable confidentiality protections. 
 c. Contractor acknowledge(s) that this
“Confidential Information” is of value to the Company and/or any Affiliated Entities by providing them with a competitive advantage over their competitors, is not generally known to competitors of the Company, and is not intended by the
Company or any Affiliated Entities for general dissemination. Contractor acknowledges that this “Confidential Information” derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily
ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and is the subject of reasonable efforts to maintain its secrecy. Therefore, the Parties agree that all “Confidential Information”
under this Agreement constitutes “Trade Secrets” under both Section 688.002 and Chapter 812 of the Florida Statutes and California’s Uniform Trade Secrets Act, Cal. Civ. Code section 3426 et seq.

 4. Limited Right of Disclosure. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, Contractor shall limit disclosure of pertinent
Confidential Information to Contractor’s attorney, if any (“Representative(s)”), for the sole purpose of evaluating Contractor’s relationship with the Company. Contractor agrees to show this Agreement to any
Representatives and Contractor agrees that Paragraph 3 of this Agreement shall bind all such Representative(s). 
 5. Return of Company
Property and Confidential Materials. All tangible property, including cell phones, laptop computers and other Company purchased property, as well as all Confidential Information, Customer and Prospective Customer information and property,
provided to Contractor is the exclusive property of the Company and/or its Affiliated Entities and must be returned to the Company and/or its Affiliated Entities in accordance with the instructions of the Company and/or such Affiliated Entities
either upon termination of the Medical Services Agreement or at such other time as is requested by the Company. Contractor agree(s) that upon the earlier of a) the termination of any employment or independent contractor relationship between the
Contractor and the MPC, b) the date on which the Contractor ceases to be an equity owner of the MPC, or c) the termination of the Medical Services Agreement between the MPC and the Company or any Affiliate Entity of the Company, Contractor shall
return all copies, in whatever form or media, including hard copies and electronic copies, of Confidential Information to the Company and/or the Affiliated Entity, and Contractor shall delete any copy of the Confidential Information on any computer
file or database maintained by Contractor and, if requested in writing, shall certify in writing that he/she has done so. In addition to returning all information to the Company and/or any Affiliated Entities as described above, Contractor will
destroy any analysis, notes, work product or

other materials relating to or derived from the Confidential Information. Any intentional or unauthorized retention of Confidential Information may constitute “misappropriation” as such
term is defined in both Chapter 772 of the Florida Statutes and Cal. Civ. Code section 3426.1(b). 
 6. Agreement Not To Circumvent.
Contractor agrees not to pursue any transaction or comparable concept that makes use of any information identified herein as Confidential Information during the Term of this Agreement, other than through the Company and/or its Affiliated
Entities or on behalf of the Company and/or its Affiliated Entities. It is further understood and agreed that the Contractor will direct all communications and requests regarding Confidential Information from any third parties through the
Company’s then chief executive officer or president. Any violation of this covenant shall subject Contractor to the remedies identified in Paragraph 9 in addition to any other available remedies. 

7. Title to Work Product. Contractor agrees that all work products (including product development ideas and strategies and testing
methodologies for competing in the genetics testing industry, technical materials and diagrams, computer programs, financial plans and other written materials, websites, presentation materials, mathematical equations, course materials, advertising
campaigns, slogans, videos, pictures and other materials) created or developed by the Contractor for the Company or any of its Affiliated Entities during the term of the Medical Services Agreement with the Company or any successor to the Company
until the date of termination of the Medical Services Agreement (collectively, the “Work Product”), shall be considered a work made for hire and that the Company shall be the sole owner of all rights, including copyright, in
and to the Work Product. 
 If the Work Product, or any part thereof, does not qualify as a work made for hire, the Contractor
agrees to assign, and hereby assigns, to the Company for the full term of the copyright and all extensions thereof all of its right, title and interest in and to the Work Product. All discoveries, inventions, innovations, works of authorship,
computer programs, improvements and ideas, whether or not patentable or copyrightable or otherwise protectable, conceived, completed, reduced to practice or otherwise produced by the Contractor in the course of his or her services to the Company in
connection with or in any way relating to the Business of the Company or capable of being used or adapted for use therein or in connection therewith shall forthwith be disclosed to the Company and shall belong to and be the absolute property of the
Company unless assigned by the Company to an Affiliated Entity. 
 Contractor hereby assigns to the Company all right, title and
interest in all of the discoveries, inventions, innovations, works of authorship, computer programs, improvements, ideas and other work product; all copyrights, trade secrets, and trademarks in the same; and all patent applications filed and patents
granted worldwide on any of the same for any work previously completed on behalf of the Company or any Affiliated Entity or work performed under the terms of this Agreement or the Medical Services Agreement. Contractor, if and whenever required to
do so (whether during or after the termination of Medical Services Agreement), shall at the expense of the Company or any Affiliated Entity apply or join in applying for copyrights, patents or trademarks or other equivalent protection in the United
States or in other parts of the world for any such discovery, invention, innovation, work of authorship, computer program, improvement, and idea as aforesaid and execute, deliver and perform all instruments and things necessary for vesting such
patents, trademarks, copyrights or equivalent protections when obtained and all right, title and interest to and in the same in the Company absolutely and as sole beneficial owner, unless assigned by the Company to an Affiliated Entity. If
Contractor fails to execute, acknowledge, verify or deliver any such document reasonably requested by the Company, Contractor irrevocably appoints the Company and its authorized officers and agents as its agent and attorney-in-fact to act in
Contractor’s place to execute, acknowledge, verify and deliver any such document on Contractor’s behalf. Notwithstanding the foregoing, work product conceived by the Contractor, which is not related to the Business of the Company, or any
Affiliated Entity, will remain the property of the Contractor. 
 Contractor understands and agrees that any provision in this
Agreement requiring Contractor to assign its rights in inventions will not apply to any invention that qualifies fully under the provisions of California

        /s/ MA

Labor Code section 2870 (the terms of which are set forth on Attachment 1) relating to certain inventions that Contractor developed entirely on Contractor’s own time without using the
Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information. By signing this Agreement below, Contractor hereby acknowledges that it has received and read the Notice as set forth in Attachment 1 attached to this Agreement. 

The parties recognize that in the course of developing the Work Product, or performing work under this Agreement, Contractor may use or
incorporate certain of Contractor’s proprietary know-how or technology that exists before the date of this Agreement and therefore will not be owned by the Company (“Excluded IP”). For purposes of clarification, the
parties do not intend that Contractor assign such Excluded IP to the Company under this Section 7, but they instead intend that the Company should be able to exercise rights under the Excluded IP for purposes of exercising all rights in the
Work Product. Therefore, to the extent that any Excluded IP is used by the Company, including to produce or as part of any Company product or service, Contractor hereby grants to the Company a non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free,
fully paid-up, worldwide right and license under the Excluded IP (including any patent or other intellectual property rights therein) to exercise any and all rights of ownership in the Excluded IP, and to sublicense any or all of the foregoing
rights (including the right to grant further sublicenses), to the extent the Excluded IP is owned or can be licensed by Contractor. 
 8.
Restrictive Covenant. The Company and its Affiliated Entities are engaged in the business of performing cancer-related research and development activities associated with genetic and molecular laboratory testing and providing
cancer-related genetic and molecular laboratory testing products and services to oncologists, urologists, pathologists, physicians, hospitals, and other medical laboratories. The covenants contained in this Paragraph 8 (the “Restrictive
Covenants”) are given and made by Contractor to induce the Company to enter into the Medical Services Agreement and to protect the Confidential Information of the Company, and Contractor acknowledges sufficiency of consideration for
these Restrictive Covenants. Contractor expressly covenants and agrees that, during the time the Management Services Agreement is in effect between the MPC and the Company and for a period of two years following the earlier of a) the termination of
any employment or independent contractor relationship between the Contractor and the MPC, b) the date on which the Contractor ceases to be an equity owner of the MPC, or c) the termination of the Medical Services Agreement between the MPC and the

	 	(ii)	canvass, or solicit, or attempt to solicit, from any Customer, or any Prospective Customer, of the Company or of any Affiliated Entity, any such business relationship
that is in competition with the Company or any Affiliated Entity; or

	 	(iv)	manage, operate, be connected with, employed by, sell goods to, or perform services for, or on behalf of, in any manner, any Customer, or Prospective Customer, of the
Company either myself or on behalf of any other entity that may employ, engage or associate with me in any fashion; or 

  

	 	(v)	recruit, solicit or otherwise induce or influence, or attempt to recruit, solicit or influence, any proprietor, partner, stockholder, lender, director, officer,
employee, sales agent, joint venturer, investor, lessor, supplier, Customer, agent, representative or any other person which has a business relationship with the Company or any Affiliated Entity to discontinue, reduce or modify such employment,

	 	(vi)	solicit or seek to employ or retain any person or agent who is then (or was at any time within twelve (12) months prior to the date Contractor or such entity
employs or seeks to employ such person) employed or retained by the Company or any Affiliated Entity. 

  

	 	b.	This Section Intentionally Left Blank. 

  

	 	c.	Acknowledgements of Contractor. 

  

	 	(i)	The Contractor understands and acknowledges that any material violation of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and it will cause
irreparable harm and loss to the Company or any Affiliated Entity for which monetary damages will be an insufficient remedy. Therefore, the Parties agree that in addition to any other remedies available, the Company and its Affiliated Entities will
be entitled to the relief identified in Paragraph No. 9 below. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Restrictive Covenants shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision in this Agreement 


 

	 	(iii)	Contractor agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company or any Affiliated Entity and to
protect its Confidential Information. 

  

	 	(iv)	Contractor agrees that this Agreement may be enforced by the Company’s assignee or successor or any of the Affiliated Entities and Contractor acknowledges and
agrees that assignees, successors and Affiliated Entities are intended beneficiaries of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(v)	Contractor agrees that if any portion of the Restrictive Covenants are held by an arbitration panel or court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, arbitrary or
against public policy for any reason, they shall be modified accordingly as to time, geographic area and line of business so as to be enforceable to the fullest extent possible as to time, area and line of business. 


 

	 	(vi)	Contractor agrees that any material violation of the Restrictive Covenants, in any capacity identified herein, are a material breach of this Agreement.


  

	 	(vii)	Contractor agrees that any failure of the Company or any Affiliated Entity to enforce the Restrictive Covenants against any other employee or contractor, for any
reason, shall not constitute a defense to enforcement of the Restrictive Covenants against the Contractor.

 9. Specific Performance; Injunction. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the restrictions
contained in Paragraphs 1-8 are reasonable in scope and duration and are necessary to protect the Company or any of its Affiliated Entities. If any provision of Paragraphs 1-8 as applied to any party or to any circumstance is adjudged by a court to
be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall in no way affect any other circumstance or the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. If any such provision, or any part thereof, is held to be unenforceable because of the
duration of such provision or the area covered thereby, the Parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or area of such provision, and/or to delete specific words or phrases, and in its
reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced. 
 Any material unauthorized use or disclosure of
information in violation of Paragraphs 2-7 above or violation of the Restrictive Covenant in Paragraph 8 shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, may constitute misappropriation under California law, and may cause irreparable harm and
loss to the Company or any of its Affiliated Entities for which monetary damages will be an insufficient remedy. Therefore, the Parties agree that in addition to any other remedy available, the Company or any of its Affiliated Entities may be
entitled to all of available civil remedies, including: 
  

	 	a.	Temporary and permanent injunctive relief, without being required to post a bond, restraining Contractor or Representatives and any other person, partnership, firm,
corporation, association or other legal entity acting in concert with Contractor from any actual or threatened unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information, in whole or in part, or from rendering any service to any other person,
partnership, firm, corporation, association or other legal entity to whom such Confidential Information in whole or in part, has been disclosed or used or is threatened to be disclosed or used; and 


 

	 	b.	Temporary and permanent injunctive relief, without being required to post a bond, restraining the Contractor from violating, directly or indirectly, the restrictions of
the Restrictive Covenant in any capacity identified in Paragraph 8, supra; and 

  

	 	c.	Compensatory damages, including actual loss from misappropriation and unjust enrichment. Contractor further agrees to pay any and all legal fees, including without
limitation, all attorneys’ fees, court costs, and any other related fees and/or costs incurred by the Company in enforcing this Agreement. 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Contractor will not be liable for the payment of any damages or fees owed to the Company through the operation of Paragraphs 9c
above, unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitration panel has determined that the Company or any of its assignees, successors or Affiliated Entities is entitled to such recovery. 

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Company or any Affiliated Entities from pursuing any other legal or
equitable remedies available to it for actual or threatened breach of the provisions of Paragraphs 1 – 8 of this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Contractor against the Company or any of its Affiliated Entities
may not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company or any of its Affiliated Entities of any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Company and its Affiliated Entities have fully performed all obligations entitling it to the covenants
of Paragraphs 1 – 8 of this Agreement and therefore such prohibitions are not executory or otherwise subject to rejection under the bankruptcy code. 
 10. Duty to Disclose Agreement. Contractor acknowledges that the Company has a legitimate business purpose in the protection of its Confidential Information. Contractor also recognizes and
agrees that the Company has the right to such information as is reasonably necessary to inform the Company whether the terms of this Agreement are being complied with. Accordingly, Contractor agrees that Contractor will promptly notify any new
company that Contractor provides services to of his/her obligations contained here. Contractor also will provide the

non-competition, non-solicitation, anti-piracy agreement, relationship agreement, or any other restrictions. Contractor agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from all claims or causes of action by any person or entity against the Company
arising out of any alleged breach by Contractor of any such agreement or any other restrictions inconsistent with the foregoing representations. 
 12. Company Use of Contractor Name, Image and Voice. The Company may use and publish Contractor’s name and picture, including audio or video tape recordings, for purposes relating to
its business without a specific release from Contractor .

stated in the signature section of this Agreement, with service so made deemed to be completed upon actual receipt thereof. Company waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted against Company as provided herein and agrees
not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue. Contractor further agrees that any action arising out of this Agreement or the relationship between the parties established herein shall be brought only in courts of competent
jurisdiction in Lee County, Florida or the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. 
 17. Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and may not be assigned by Contractor at any time. This Agreement may be assigned only by the Company to an Affiliated Entity and shall inure to the

 ATTACHMENT 1 
 CALIFORNIA LABOR CODE SECTION 2872 NOTICE 
 (Regarding Certain Exclusions
From Invention Assignments) 
 I understand that if I am an employee in California, then the provisions of this Agreement requiring me to
assign Inventions shall not apply to those inventions as described by California Labor Code Section 2870, which provides as follows: 

California Labor Code Section 2870 
 “(a) Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an
invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either: 

(1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably
anticipated research or development of the employer; or 
 (2) Result from any work performed by the employee for the employer.

 (b) To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise
excluded from being required to be assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of the State of California and is unenforceable.” 
 I understand that I bear the full burden of proving to the Company that an invention qualifies fully under Section 2870 so as to be excluded from assignment to the Company. 

I further understand and agree that I may be required to provide for full title to certain patents and inventions to be in the name of the United States,
as may be required by certain contracts between the Company and the United States or any of its agencies.
