other information that is marked or otherwise identified as confidential or proprietary, or that would otherwise appear to a reasonable person to be confidential or proprietary in the context and circumstances in which the information is known or
used. Confidential Information includes information developed by the Executive in the course of his employment by the Company as if the Company furnished the same Confidential Information to the Executive in the first instance. Confidential
Information shall not include information that is generally available to and known by the public at the time of disclosure to the Executive; provided that the disclosure is through no direct or indirect fault of the Executive or person(s) acting on
the Executive’s behalf. 
 7.2 Company Creation and Use of Confidential Information. The Company has invested,
and continues to invest, substantial time, money, and specialized knowledge into developing its resources, creating a customer base, generating customer and potential customer lists, training its employees, and improving its offerings. As a result
of these efforts, the Company has created, and continues to use and create Confidential Information. This Confidential Information provides the Company with a competitive advantage over others in the marketplace. 

7.3 Disclosure and Use Restrictions. The Executive shall: (i) treat all Confidential Information as strictly
confidential; (ii) not directly or indirectly disclose, publish, communicate, or make available Confidential Information, or allow it to be disclosed, published, communicated, or made available, in whole or part, to any entity or person
whatsoever (including other employees of the Company) not having a need to know and authority to know and use the Confidential Information in connection with the business of the Company and, in any event, not to anyone outside of the direct employ
of the Company except as required in the performance of the Executive’s authorized employment duties to the Company or with the prior consent of the Company acting on behalf of the 

  
 8 













 
Company in each instance (and then, the disclosure shall be made only within the limits and to the extent of his duties or consent); and (iii) not access or use any Confidential Information,
and not copy any documents, records, files, media, or other resources containing any Confidential Information, or remove any these documents, records, files, media, or other resources from the premises or control of the Company, except as required
in the performance of the Executive’s authorized employment duties to the Company or with the prior consent of the Company acting on behalf of the Company in each instance (and then, disclosure shall be made only within the limits and to the
extent of his duties or consent). Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information as may be required by applicable law or regulation, or pursuant to the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an
authorized government agency, provided that the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by law, regulation, or order. The Executive shall promptly provide written notice of any order to the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, the Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (x) is made (i) in
confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (y) is made in a complaint or
other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Executive’s ability to communicate with any government agency or otherwise participate in any
investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any government agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. 

The Executive’s obligations under this Agreement with regard to any particular Confidential Information shall commence immediately upon
the Executive first having access to the Confidential Information (whether before or after his begins employment by the Company) and shall continue during and after his employment by the Company until the Confidential Information has become public
knowledge other than as a result of the Executive’s breach of this Agreement or breach by those acting in concert with the Executive or on the Executive’s behalf. 

8. Restrictive Covenants. 
 8.1
Acknowledgement. Executive, acknowledges and agrees that the provisions set forth in this Section 8 are material terms relied upon by all parties to the Contribution and Exchange Agreement, and absent the provisions set forth in this
Section 8, the parties to the Contribution and Exchange Agreement would not have executed the Contribution and Exchange Agreement without material modification to that agreement. In view of the reliance placed on the provisions set forth in
this Section 8 by the parties to the Contribution and Exchange Agreement, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this Section are fair and reasonable. Additionally, the nature of the Executive’s
position gives him access to and knowledge of Confidential Information and places him in a position of trust and confidence with the Company. The services the Executive provides to the Company are unique, special, or extraordinary. The
Company’s ability to preserve Confidential Information for the exclusive knowledge and use of the Company and to otherwise preserve the goodwill of the Company is of great competitive importance and commercial value to the Company, and improper
use or disclosure by the Executive is likely to result in unfair or unlawful competitive activity.

 8.2 Non-Competition. 

(a) In order to protect the Company’s legitimate business interest as described herein and the good and valuable
consideration offered to the Executive, during the Employment Term and for a period equal to the greater of (i) three (3) years from the Termination Date, or (ii) six (6) years from the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Executive shall
not engage in Prohibited Activity within the State of Illinois or any other jurisdiction where the Company currently conducts business or may conduct business prior to the expiration of the Employment Term. For purposes of this

consultant, agent, employee, partner, director, stockholder, officer, volunteer, intern, or any other similar capacity to an entity engaged in the same or similar business as the Company. Prohibited Activity also includes activity that may require
or inevitably requires disclosure of trade secrets, proprietary information or Confidential Information. 
 (b) Nothing
herein shall prohibit the Executive from purchasing publicly traded securities of any corporation, provided that this ownership represents a passive investment and that the Executive is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that
controls, the corporation. 
 (c) This Section 8 does not, in any way, restrict or impede the
Executive from exercising protected rights to the extent that those rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government
agency, provided that compliance does not exceed that required by the law, regulation, or order. The Executive shall promptly provide written notice of any order to the Company. 

8.3 Non-Solicitation of Employees. The Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit,
hire, recruit, attempt to hire or recruit, or induce the termination of employment of any employee of the Company during three (3) years, to run consecutively, beginning on the Termination Date; provided, however, that the foregoing provision
shall not prohibit solicitations made by the Executive to the general public or the Executive’s serving as a reference for any such employee upon request. 

8.4 Non-Solicitation of Customers. 

(a) Because of the Executive’s experience with and relationship to the Company, he will have access to and learn about
much or all of the Company’s Customer Information. “Customer Information” includes, but is not limited to, names, phone numbers, addresses, e-mail addresses, order history, order
preferences, chain of command, pricing information, and other information identifying facts and circumstances specific to the customer, and comprises Company trade secrets. 

(b) The loss of a customer relationship and/or goodwill will cause the Company significant and irreparable harm.

express mail, telephone, fax, and instant message), attempt to contact, or meet with the Company’s current, former or prospective customers for purposes of offering or accepting goods or services similar to or competitive with those offered by
the Company. 
 8.5 Modification. If at the time of enforcement of the provisions of this
Section 8, a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such
circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by applicable laws. 

9. Non-Disparagement. The Executive will not at any time make, publish or communicate to any person or entity
or in any public forum any defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments, or statements concerning the Company or its businesses, or any of its employees, officers, and existing and prospective customers, suppliers, investors and other associated
third parties. The Company will cause its officers and managers to refrain from making any defamatory or disparaging remarks, comments, or statements concerning the Executive to any third parties. This Section 9 does not,
in any way, restrict or impede the Executive from exercising protected rights to the extent that these rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction
or an authorized government agency, provided that compliance does not exceed that required by the law, regulation, or order. The Executive shall promptly provide written notice of any order to the Company. In addition, this Section shall not
prohibit either party from rebutting claims or statements made by any other person. 
 10. Acknowledgement. The services to be rendered by the
Executive to the Company are of a special and unique character. The Executive will obtain knowledge and skill relevant to the Company’s industry, methods of doing business and marketing strategies by virtue of the Executive’s employment.
The restrictive covenants and other terms and conditions of this Agreement are reasonable and reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interest of the Company. The amount of the Executive’s compensation reflects, in part, his
obligations and the Company’s rights under Section 7, Section 8 and Section 9. The Executive has no expectation of any additional compensation in his capacity as an
employee that are not otherwise referenced herein in connection herewith. The Executive will not be subject to undue hardship by reason of his full compliance with the terms and conditions of Section 7,
Section 8 and Section 9 or the Company’s enforcement thereof. 
 11. Remedies. In the event
of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of Section 7, Section 8 or Section 9, the Company shall be entitled to seek, in addition to other available remedies, a
temporary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief against the breach or threatened breach from any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate
remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security. The aforementioned equitable relief shall be in addition to, not in lieu of, legal remedies, monetary damages, or other available forms of relief.

Technology Resources in any manner after the termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company, whether termination is voluntary or involuntary. The Executive shall notify the Company promptly if he learns of any violation of the
foregoing by others, or of any other misappropriation or unauthorized access, use, reproduction, or reverse engineering of, or tampering with any Facilities and Information Technology Resources or other Company property or materials by others.

possession or control,

Executive to prepare the Executive’s individual tax returns or any records pertinent to any disputed termination of this Agreement or any claim for indemnification from the Company. 

14. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement is entered into in Chicago, Illinois and shall be governed by, and construed

provision or condition at the same or any prior or subsequent time, nor shall the failure of or delay by either of the parties in exercising any right, power, or privilege hereunder operate as a waiver thereof to preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 
 18. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law in any jurisdiction, the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable that term or provision
in any other jurisdiction. On a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as
possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
