RECITALS:


 


WHEREAS,
the Company is engaged in the business of researching, developing, manufacturing, and selling graphene nanoplatelets and certain
other value-added products that contain graphene nanoplatelets; and


 


WHEREAS,
XGS desires to employ Executive as an officer in the capacity of Chief Financial Officer, and Executive desires to be employed
by XGS in such capacity, in accordance with the terms, covenants, and conditions as set forth in this Agreement.


 


NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Employer and Executive agree as follows:


 


1.       Employment
Period. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein
and unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided, XGS shall employ Executive as an officer, and Executive agrees to serve
as an officer and accepts such employment beginning on November 19, 2018 (the “Effective Date”). This Agreement
shall remain in effect until either party delivers a written notice of a termination pursuant to Section 5 hereof. For purposes
of this Agreement, the period from the Effective Date until the termination of Executive’s employment shall hereinafter
be referred to as the “Term”. Executive’s employment pursuant to
this Agreement shall be “at will” as such term is construed under Michigan law.


 


2.       Title
and Duties. During the period from the Effective Date through the Term, XGS shall employ Executive as its Chief Financial
Officer (“CFO”), and Executive accepts employment in such capacity. Executive will report to the CEO and be
subject to the general supervision and direction of the CEO and as needed for compliance and governance purposes of the Board
of Directors of the Company (“Board”). If requested, Executive will serve in similar capacities for each or
any subsidiary of XGS without additional compensation. Executive shall perform such duties as are customarily performed by someone
holding the title of CFO in the same or similar businesses or enterprises as that engaged in by the Company and such other duties
as the CEO may assign from time to time. 




 


3.       Compensation
and Benefits of Executive. The Company shall compensate Executive for Executive's services rendered under this Agreement
as follows:


 


		a.	Base
                                         Salary. Unless otherwise adjusted by the CEO and approved by the Compensation
                                         Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”), the Company
                                         shall pay Executive an annualized base salary of $235,000 (the “Base Salary”),
                                         payable in equal installments at such times as is consistent with normal Company payroll
                                         policy.

		b.	Bonus.
                                         Executive will be eligible for a performance-based bonus as a participant in the Company’s
                                         Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”), which shall set annual target incentives
                                         for the Executive and other senior ranking employees that are determined by the CEO and
                                         approved by the Compensation Committee. The Company will target an annual bonus of 30%
                                         of the Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”). Executive
                                         understands and acknowledges that she must be an employee of the Company on December
                                         31st of any given fiscal year in order to be eligible to receive all or any
                                         portion of a bonus for such fiscal year. Upon meeting the performance thresholds established
                                         by the CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee in the MIP for any such year, the
                                         actual bonus payout for such year will be no less than 100% of the Target Bonus. However,
                                         the Executive shall be eligible to receive up to 150% of the Target Bonus in the event
                                         that the Company’s and/or the Executive’s performance exceeds the thresholds
                                         set for the Target Bonus. 



 


		c.	Benefits.
                                         Subject to the eligibility requirements, and enrollment provisions of the Company’s
                                         employee benefit plans, Executive may, to the extent she so chooses, participate in any
                                         and all of the Company’s employee benefit plans for qualified members of Executive’s
                                         family at the Company’s expense. All Company benefits are identified in the Employee
                                         Handbook and are subject to change without notice or explanation. In addition, subject
                                         to the eligibility requirements and enrollment provisions of the Company’s executive
                                         benefit programs, Executive shall also be eligible to participate in any and all other
                                         benefits programs established for officers of the Company. 



 


		d.	Stock
                                         Options. At the end of the fiscal quarter in which you join the Company (“Grant
                                         Date”) as an employee, Executive will be granted an option to purchase 120,000
                                         shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Options”) on the
                                         terms and conditions listed below. Such Options will have a strike price equal to $8.00
                                         per share which is the fair market value of the common stock as of the date of this Agreement
                                         based upon recently completed and currently contemplated capital raising activities with
                                         disinterested third parties. The vesting provisions of such Options shall be as outlined
                                         below. These Options shall be treated as incentive stock options (ISOs) to the maximum
                                         extent permitted under applicable law, and
                                         the remainder of the Options, if any, shall be treated as non-qualified stock options.
                                         The grant of these Options will be made pursuant
                                         to the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and will
                                         be evidenced by a separate “Option Agreement” to be executed by the
                                         Company and Executive, which will contain all the terms and conditions of the Options
                                         (including, but not limited to, the provisions set forth in this Section 3(d)). So long
                                         as Executive remains employed by the Company, such Options will have a seven-year term
                                         before expiration. Nothing herein shall preclude XGS from granting Executive additional
                                         equity compensation under the Plan or its successor.



 


100%
of such Options will be time-based options and will vest according to the following schedule:


 


		i.	25%
                                         shares will vest on the first anniversary of the Grant Date; and



		ii.	25%
                                         shares will vest on the second anniversary of the Grant Date; and



		iii.	25%
                                         shares will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date; and



		iv.	25%
                                         shares will vest on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date.



Executive
understands that, pursuant to the Plan, upon termination of his/her employment, she will only have ninety (90) days to exercise
any vested portion of the Options. All Options awarded pursuant to this Section 3(d) will contain a provision in the Option Agreement
that allows for immediate vesting of any unvested portion of the Options in the event of a change of control of the Company.

		e.	Temporary
                                         Commuting Allowance. The Company agrees to reimburse Executive for up to $1,800
                                         per month for commuting and temporary housing expenses incurred prior to the earlier
                                         of (i) Executive’s permanent relocation to the greater Lansing, MI area, or (ii)
                                         August 15, 2021 (the “Temporary Commuting Assistance”). Expenses reimbursable
                                         under the Temporary Commuting Allowance include pre-move travel (between Fishers, IN
                                         and Lansing, MI), related lodging and meal expenses and other related transition expenses,
                                         and will be reimbursed after receipts are submitted for such expenses in accordance with
                                         the Company’s policy for expense reimbursements.



 


		f.	Permanent
                                         Relocation Expenses. The Company agrees to reimburse Executive for up to $25,000
                                         in the aggregate for any expenses incurred in connection with the Executive’s permanent
                                         relocation to the greater Lansing, MI area; provided, that such expenses are incurred
                                         prior to August 15, 2021 or such other mutually agreed upon date (the “Permanent
                                         Relocation Assistance”). Any relocation expenses incurred by Executive after
                                         August 15, 2021 will not be reimbursable by the Company unless otherwise mutually agreed
                                         upon in writing by the Executive and the Company. The Company will require two (2) quotes
                                         from vendors prior to payment of moving expenses. Executive understands and acknowledges
                                         that he/she will forfeit any unused Permanent Relocation Assistance after August 15,
                                         2021.



 


		g.	Personal
                                         Time-Off and Holidays. Executive’s personal time-off (“PTO”)
                                         and holidays shall be consistent with the standards set forth in the Company’s
                                         Employee Handbook, as revised from time to time or as otherwise published by the Company.
                                         Notwithstanding the previous sentence, Executive
                                         will be eligible for one hundred forty four (144) hours of PTO/year, which will accrue
                                         on a pro-rata basis throughout the year, provided, however, that it is the Company’s
                                         policy that no more than sixteen hours (16) hours of PTO can be accrued beyond this annual
                                         limit for any employee at any time. Thus, when accrued PTO reaches one hundred sixty
                                         (160) hours, Executive will cease accruing PTO until accrued PTO is one hundred forty
                                         four (144) hours or less, at which point Executive will again accrue PTO until she reaches
                                         one hundred sixty (160) hours. In addition to PTO, there are also nine (9) paid national
                                         holidays and one (1) “floater” day available to Company employees. Executive
                                         agrees to schedule such PTO so that it minimally interferes with the Company’s
                                         operations. Executive further understands and acknowledges that pursuant to Company policy,
                                         the Company does not pay out unused PTO to employees upon their termination for any or
                                         no reason. 



 


		h.	Reimbursement
                                         of Normal Business Expenses. The Company will reimburse all reasonable business
                                         expenses of Executive, including, but not limited to, cell phone expenses and business
                                         related travel, meals and entertainment expenses in accordance with the Company’s
                                         polices for such reimbursement.



 


4.       Best
Efforts of the Executive and Minimum Time Commitments of Employment. Executive agrees to perform all of the duties pursuant
to the express and implicit terms of this Agreement to the reasonable satisfaction of the Employer. Executive further agrees to
perform such duties faithfully and to the best of her ability, talent, and experience and, unless otherwise agreed upon with the
Company in writing, to render her full working time and attention to the Company. 







 


5.       Termination.
The parties agree that any termination of the Executive under this Agreement will be governed as follows:


 



    3


     


    

 


		a.	By
                                         the Company for Cause. The Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
                                         and to discharge the Executive for Cause (as defined below), at any time during the Term.
                                         For the purposes of this Agreement, the Company shall have “Cause” to terminate
                                         the Executive’s employment hereunder upon:





(i)        failure to materially perform and discharge
the duties and responsibilities of Executive under this Agreement after receiving written notice and allowing Executive ten (10)
business days to create a plan to cure such failure(s), such plan being acceptable to the CEO and subject to discussion with the
Board of Directors, and a further thirty (30) days to cure such failure(s), if so curable, provided, however, that after
one such notice has been given to Executive and the thirty (30) day cure period has lapsed, the Company is no longer required
to provide time to cure subsequent failures of the same or substantially similar type having occurred within twelve (12) months
of the first instance under this provision, or


 


(ii)
       any breach by Executive of the material provisions of this Agreement; or


 


(iii)
       felony conviction involving the personal dishonesty or moral turpitude of Executive;
or a determination by the CEO and subject to discussion with the Board, after consideration of all available information, that
Executive has willfully and knowingly violated Company policies or procedures involving discrimination, harassment, or work place
violence or any other activities that would potentially subject the Company to criminal or civil liabilities; or


 


(iv)
       engagement in illegal drug use or abuse of alcohol or prescription drugs that, in the
good faith opinion and sole discretion of the Board and subject to discussion with the Board, prevents Executive from performing
her duties, or


 


(v)
       any misappropriation, embezzlement or conversion of the Company’s opportunities
or property by the Executive; or


 


(vi)
       willful misconduct, recklessness or gross negligence by the Executive in respect of
the duties or obligations of the Executive under this Agreement and/or the Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation or Non-Competition
Agreement.


 


Any
termination for Cause pursuant to this Section shall be given to the Executive in writing and shall set forth in detail all acts
or omissions upon which the Company is relying to terminate the Executive for Cause. If an Executive is terminated for Cause,
the Executive shall only be entitled to receive his/her accrued and unpaid Salary, bonus and other benefits pursuant to Section
3(c) through the termination date and the Company shall have no further obligations under this Agreement from and after the date
of termination.

		b.	Termination
                                         by Company Without Cause. At any time during the Term, the Company shall have
                                         the right to terminate this Agreement and to discharge the Executive without Cause effective
                                         upon delivery of written notice to the Executive. If the Company terminates the Executive
                                         without “Cause” for any or no reason, then the Company agrees that for a
                                         period of three (3) months from the date of notice of termination (the “Severance
                                         Period”), it will pay as severance of (i) the Executive’s base salary
                                         in accordance with Section 3(a) at such times as the normally recurring payroll payments
                                         (“Severance Payments”); and (ii) 100% of the COBRA premiums for the
                                         Executive’s and Executive’s family health insurance benefits, as permitted
                                         by COBRA and under the policy provisions as they then may apply. The Company also agrees
                                         that it will pay to the Executive at the next such time that annual bonuses are paid
                                         by the Company to employees generally, the pro rata portion of any bonus that would be
                                         due for the year in which the termination occurs up to the date of written notice of
                                         termination (such pro rata bonus amounts together with the amount of any payments due
                                         after a termination without Cause for COBRA premiums, collectively the “Benefit
                                         Consideration”). The pro rata portion of any such bonus that would be due and payable
                                         for the year in which termination occurs shall be calculated by annualizing any financial
                                         metrics of the Company (e.g., revenue, adjusted EBITDA, or net income) that may be specified
                                         as Company performance metrics in the MIP up to the most recent full month prior to the
                                         written notice of termination and comparing such annualized figures to the performance
                                         thresholds for the Executive outlined in the MIP that was in effect for such year at
                                         the time the written notice of termination was delivered to the Executive. Executive
                                         understands and acknowledges that she would not have any obligation or authority to represent
                                         the Company in any way during the Severance Period.



 


Executive
further agrees that in the event that she obtains employment during the Severance Period, she will promptly notify the Company.
Provided that such employment does not violate the terms of the Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement,
the Severance Payments will continue to be paid. Other than the Severance Payments, and the Benefit Consideration which is conditioned
as described above, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive after the date of termination.


 


The
Executive acknowledges and agrees that any and all Severance Payments to which she may be entitled under this Section 5(b) following
a termination without Cause are conditioned upon and subject to her execution of a general waiver and release, in such reasonable
form as counsel for the Company shall determine, of all claims the Executive has or may have
against the Company.


 


		c.	By
                                         Resignation of the Executive. The Executive may terminate her employment hereunder
                                         with or without cause, upon giving sixty (60) days written notice to the Company. Executive’s
                                         “Resignation for Cause” shall mean, without Executive’s consent, the
                                         occurrence of any of the following circumstances:



 


		(i)	A
                                         material diminution of Executive’s Base Salary;



 


		(ii)	A
                                         change in Executive’s title or position within XGS or its successor, where such
                                         change represents a material diminution of Executive’s level of responsibility,
                                         duties or authorities; or



 


		(iii)	A
                                         material breach by XGS of the terms of this Agreement.



 


In
the event Executive’s resignation is With Cause, Company shall pay to Executive the Severance Payments as set out in Section
5(b).

The
Executive agrees that during such sixty (60) day period no more than one week of unused PTO may be utilized without the Company’s
written consent. In the event of such a termination, the Executive shall comply with any reasonable request of the Company to
assist in providing for an orderly transition of authority, but such assistance shall not delay the Executive’s termination
of employment longer than sixty (60) days beyond the Executive’s original notice of termination. Upon such a Resignation
Without Cause, the the Executive shall become entitled to any accrued but unpaid salary, and other benefits pursuant to Section
3(c) through the termination date, and the Company shall have no further obligations under this Agreement from and after the date
of termination.


 


		d.	Disability
                                         of the Executive. This Agreement may be terminated by the Company upon the Disability
                                         of the Executive. "Disability" shall mean any mental or physical illness, condition,
                                         disability or incapacity which prevents the Executive from reasonably discharging his/her
                                         duties and responsibilities under this Agreement for a period of ninety (90) days in
                                         any one hundred eighty (180) day period. In the event that any disagreement or dispute
                                         shall arise between the Company and the Executive as to whether the Executive suffers
                                         from any Disability, then, in such event, the Executive shall submit to the physical
                                         or mental examination of a physician licensed under the laws of the State of Michigan,
                                         who is agreeable to the Company and the Executive, and such physician shall determine
                                         whether the Executive suffers from any Disability. In the absence of fraud or bad faith,
                                         the determination of such physician shall be final and binding upon the Company and the
                                         Executive. The entire cost of such examination shall be paid solely by the Company. In
                                         the event the Company has purchased disability insurance for Executive, the Executive
                                         shall be deemed disabled if she is disabled as defined by the terms of the disability
                                         policy. In the event Company has purchased a disability policy, Executive shall be entitled
                                         to the payments thereunder, subject and pursuant to the Company’s contract with
                                         the disability insurance carrier. In addition, on the date that the Executive is deemed
                                         to have a Disability, this Agreement will be deemed to have been terminated and the Executive
                                         shall be entitled to receive from the Company his/her accrued and unpaid Base Salary,
                                         bonus, and other benefits pursuant to Section 3(c) through the termination date. Other
                                         than as set forth in this subsection 5(c), the Company shall have no further obligations
                                         under this Agreement from and after the date of termination due to Disability.



 


		d.	Death
                                         of the Executive. In the event of the death of Executive, the employment of the
                                         Executive by the Company shall automatically terminate on the date of the Executive's
                                         death and the Company shall be obligated to pay Executive’s estate, or if written
                                         instructions signed by the Executive have been provided to the Company prior to the Executive’s
                                         death which designates her specific next of kin, pay such designated next of kin (i)
                                         the Executive’s accrued and unpaid Base Salary, bonus, and other benefits pursuant
                                         to Section 3(c) through the termination date and shall pay for Executive’s family
                                         health insurance for a period of six (6) months thereafter, subject to and in accordance
                                         with the provisions of COBRA. Other than as set forth in this subsection 5(d), the Company
                                         shall have no further obligations under this Agreement from and after the date of termination
                                         due to the death of the Executive.



 


6.       Confidentiality,

Non-Compete Agreement attached hereto as Addendum A (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) and has signed that Agreement.
Such Confidentiality Agreement is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. 


 


7.       Importance
of Certain Clauses. Executive and Employer agree that the covenants contained in the Confidentiality Agreement are material
terms of this Agreement and all parties understand the importance of such provisions to the ongoing business of the Employer.
As such, because the Employer's continued business and viability depend on the protection of Confidential Information (as such
term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), non-solicitation and non-competition, as well as the other provisions in the
Confidentiality Agreement, these clauses are interpreted by the parties to have applicability as may be allowed by law and Executive
understands and acknowledges his/her understanding of same.

8.       Consideration.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the provision of employment under this Agreement with the compensation and benefits
specified in Section 3 hereof and the execution by the Employer of this Agreement constitute full, adequate and sufficient consideration
to Executive for the Executive's duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement and under the Confidentiality Agreement
incorporated into this Agreement.


 


9.       Acknowledgement
of Post Termination Obligations. Upon the effective date of termination of Executive’s employment (unless due to
Executive’s death), if requested by the Employer, Executive shall participate in an exit interview with the Employer and
certify in writing that Executive has complied with her contractual obligations and intends to comply with her continuing obligations
under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. To the extent it is known or
applicable at the time of such exit interview, Executive shall also provide the Employer with information concerning Executive's
subsequent employer and the capacity in which Executive will be employed. Executive's failure to comply with this provision shall
be a material breach of this Agreement, for which the Employer, in addition to any other civil remedy, may in its sole discretion,(i)
subject to then-current and applicable law, discontinue any Benefit Consideration to which the Executive may otherwise be entitled,
or (ii) seek equitable relief, without the necessity of posting bond.


 


10.       Withholding.
All payments made to Executive shall be made net of any applicable withholding for income taxes and Executive's share of FICA,
FUTA or other employment taxes. The Company shall withhold such amounts from such payments to the extent required by applicable
law and remit such amounts to the applicable governmental authorities in accordance with applicable law.


 


11.
       Representations of Executive. Executive represents and warrants to Company
that to the best of Executive’s knowledge and judgment (a) nothing in her past legal and/or work and/or personal experiences,
which if became broadly known in the marketplace, would impair her ability to serve as the Chief Financial Officer of a publicly-traded
company or materially damage her credibility with public shareholders; (b) there are no restrictions, agreements, or understandings
whatsoever to which she is a party which would prevent or make unlawful her execution of this Agreement or employment hereunder,
(c) Executive’s execution of this Agreement and employment hereunder shall not constitute a breach of any contract, agreement
or understanding, oral or written, to which she is a party or by which she is bound, (d) Executive is free and able to execute
this Agreement and to continue employment with Company, and (e) Executive has not used and will not use confidential information
or trade secrets belonging to any prior employers to perform services for the Company.


 


12.       
Effect of Partial Invalidity. The invalidity of any portion of this Agreement shall not affect the validity of any
other provision. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, the parties agree that the remaining
provisions shall remain in full force and effect.


 


13.
       Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other documents referenced
herein, reflects the complete agreement between the parties regarding the subject matter identified herein and shall supersede
all other previous agreements, either oral or written, between the parties. The parties stipulate that neither of them, nor any
person acting on their behalf has made any representations except as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and each of
the parties acknowledges that it or she has not relied upon any representation of any third party in executing this Agreement,
but rather have relied exclusively on it or her own judgment in entering into this Agreement.

14.
       Assignment. Employer may assign its interest, obligations, and rights under
this Agreement at its sole discretion and without approval of Executive to a successor in interest by the Employer’s merger,
consolidation or other form of business combination with or into a third party where the Employer’s stockholders before
such event do not control a majority of the resulting business entity after such event. All rights and entitlements arising from
this Agreement, including but not limited to those protective covenants and prohibitions set forth in the Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation
and Non-Compete Agreement attached as Addendum A and incorporated into this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of any purchaser,
assignor or transferee of this Agreement and shall continue to be enforceable to the extent allowable under applicable law. Neither
this Agreement, nor the employment status conferred with its execution is assignable or subject to transfer in any manner by Executive.



 


15.
       Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications shall be
in writing and shall be given by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, a) if to the Employer, at the Employer’s
then current headquarters location, and b) if to Executive, at the most recent address on file with the Company for Executive
or to such subsequent addresses as either party shall so designate in writing to the other party.


 


16.       Remedies.
If any action at law, equity or in arbitration, including an action for declaratory relief, is brought to enforce or interpret
the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party may, if the court or arbitrator hearing the dispute, so determines, have
its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of enforcement recouped from the non-prevailing party.


 


17.       Amendment/Waiver.
No waiver, modification, amendment or change of any term of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in a written
agreement signed by both parties. No waiver by the Employer of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement shall be construed
as a waiver of any subsequent breach unless it so provides by its terms.


 


18.       Governing
Law, Venue and Jurisdiction. This Agreement and all transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be governed by,
construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan without regard to any conflicts of laws, statutes,

and Employer.

or regarding any other matter whatsoever shall be submitted to arbitration before a single unbiased arbitrator skilled in arbitrating
such disputes under the American Arbitration Association, utilizing its employment rules. The process for selecting a single unbiased
arbitrator shall be decided between Employer and Executive. Any arbitration action brought pursuant to this section shall be heard
