RESTRICTIVE COVENANT AGREEMENT


 


This Restrictive Covenant
Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into and shall be deemed effective as of the “Closing,” as
that term is defined in the Stock Exchange Agreement dated March 1, 2017 (the “SEA”) between American Housing Income
Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“AHIT”) with a mailing address for notice purposes of 34225 North 27th
Drive, Building 5, Suite 238 in Phoenix, Arizona 85085, and IX Biotechnology, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“IXB”) with
a mailing address for notice purposes of 18662 MacAurthur Blvd., Suite 200 in Irvine, California, 92612. This Agreement is by and
between AHIT, and IXB, and its respective control persons, affiliates, directors, officers and agents, including but not limited
to Michael Ogburn, Joaquin Flores and Brian Werner, and their respective assigns, heirs or designees (collectively, the “IXB
Persons” or individually, an/the “IXB Person”).


 


WHEREAS, the execution
of this Agreement is a condition precedent to performance by AHIT of the SEA pursuant to Section 5.3(7) of the SEA.


 


WHEREAS, in consideration
of the issuance of shares of restricted common stock to IXB shareholders on a pro rata basis under the SEA, IXB has agreed to contribute
to AHIT to be operated under a wholly-owned subsidiary post-closing, amongst other things, assets, resources, business relationships,
business opportunities, leases, contractual rights and other tangible and intangible assets in furtherance of cannabidol-related
biotechnology.


 


WHEREAS, the IXB Persons,
or their subsequent assigns or designees, will be members of the Board of Directors of AHIT after the closing of the SEA, and in
the case of Mr. Ogburn, will be the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of AHIT. Following the closing of the SEA,
Sean Zarinegar, Kenneth Hedrick and Les Gutierrez will oversee the Real Estate Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Real
Estate Committee”).


 


WHEREAS, in order to protect
against the dissipation or disposition of assets contributed by IXB related to cannabidol-related biotechnology, or cannabidol-related
biotechnology assets procured by IXB through the actions of the IXB Persons, as members of the Board of Directors post-closing
of the SEA, IXB and the IXB Persons have agreed to this Agreement.


 


WHEREAS, each party agrees
that they have had an opportunity to participate in the drafting, preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. Each party expressly
acknowledges such participation and negotiation in order to avoid the application of any rule construing contractual language against
the drafter thereof. The parties acknowledge that Paesano Akkashian Apkarian, P.C. (“PAA”) has disclosed to it that
it is legal counsel to AHIT, and that it does not represent IXB or the IXB Persons in connection with this Agreement. To the extent
any conflict of interest exists under the Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct in PAA’s representation of AHIT, IXB waives
the conflict. Furthermore, IXB acknowledges that although it has gathered information from AHIT in evaluating this Agreement, it
has relied solely on its own review, and the review of its attorneys, accountants and advisors.

Disassociated IXB Person agrees to the following provisions and restrictive covenants:


 






    	-2- 



    	 



    




 


(a) The Disassociated
IXB Person will deliver to AHIT and IXB all documents and data of any nature pertaining to his work with AHIT and IXB. The Disassociated
IXB Person will not take with him any documents or data of any description, or any reproduction of any description, containing
or pertaining to any Proprietary Information created, discovered or developed by, or made known to, the Disassociated IXB Person
during the period of his affiliation with AHIT or IXB.


 


(b) The Disassociated
IXB Person agrees not to solicit or in any manner encourage IXB Persons, actual customers, prospective customers or agents servicing
AHIT or IXB to leave their employ or transition business in any manner from AHIT or IXB, and, further, during such period, the
IXB Person will not offer employment to, or cause employment to be offered to, any person who is employed by AHIT or IXB at any
time during the six months before the termination of the Disassociated IXB Person’s affiliation with AHIT or IXB.


 


(c) The Disassociated
IXB Person will promptly disclose to the AHIT and IXB, or any persons designated by them, all improvements, inventions, formulae,
computer software processes, techniques, know-how, and data (collectively, “Inventions”), whether or not patentable,
made or conceived or reduced to practice as learned by the Disassociated IXB Person, either alone or jointly with others, during
the period of the Disassociated IXB Person’s affiliation with IXB or AHIT (whether during or after normal business hours),
which are related to or are useful in the development and marketing of the products of IXB or AHIT, or which result from tasks
assigned to the Disassociated IXB Person by IXB or AHIT, or result from the use of the premises, equipment, or materials owned,
leased, or contracted for by IXB or AHIT.


 


(d) All Inventions
shall be the sole property of IXB or AHIT, as the case may be, and its assigns, and IXB or AHIT, and its assigns, shall be the
sole owner of all patents, copyrights, and other rights in connection with the Inventions. The Disassociated IXB Person agrees
to assign to IXB or AHIT, as the case may be, any rights he may have or acquire in all Inventions. As to all Inventions, the Disassociated
IXB Person will assist IXB and AHIT, in every proper way (but at IXB’s or AHIT’s expense) to obtain and from time to
time enforce patents and inventions in any and all countries, and to that end, the Disassociated IXB Person will execute all documents
for use in applying for and obtaining such patents thereon and enforcing same, as IXB and AHIT may desire, together with any assignment
thereof to IXB or AHIT, as the case may be, or persons designated by it. The Disassociated IXB Person’s obligation to assist
IXB and AHIT in obtaining and enforcing patents for Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of
the Disassociated IXB Person’s association with IXB or AHIT, but IXB or AHIT shall compensate the Disassociated IXB Person
at a reasonable rate after such disassociation for time actually spent by the Disassociated IXB Person at IXB’s or AHIT’s
request of such assistance.


 


(e) The IXB
Person and a Disassociated IXB Person agrees that he will not in any way, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, induce,
influence, or attempt to solicit, induce, or influence any customers, clients, or joint venturers of IXB or AHIT; (ii)
solicit, induce, influence, or attempt to solicit, induce, or influence for any business endeavor any IXB Person, or
stockholder, partner, lessor, or supplier of IXB or AHIT to discontinue or reduce or modify the extent of their relationship
with IXB or AHIT; or (iii) otherwise divert or attempt to divert from the Company any business whatsoever or interfere with
any business relationship between IXB and/or AHIT and any other person. If any portion of this noncompetition covenant is
deemed not to be enforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction because it is deemed overly broad in terms of time or the
geographic area covered, this noncompetition covenant shall not be void but shall be modified to extend through a reasonable
time period and/or geographic area.

7. Equitable Relief.
Because IXB and AHIT do not have an adequate remedy at law to protect its business from the breach of an IXB Person’s covenants
under this Agreement, IXB or AHIT, as the case may be, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to such other remedies

any derivatives thereof (hereinafter referred to as “Royalties”). The IXB Persons agree to produce this Agreement to
any future employer or principal in order to put them on notice of his or her duties and obligations under this Agreement and IXB’s
and/or AHIT’s rights to Royalties, and the IXB Person agrees to provide IXB and AHIT a monthly accounting of Royalties. The
