2.3              Company understands that Employee is the owner

the sale of the Company’s owned inventory before the inventory of Peter Marco, LLC. For so long as Employee is employed
by the Company, except for his ownership in Peter Marco, LLC, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either as an employee,
employer, consultant, agent, investor, principal, partner, stockholder (except as the holder of less than 1% of the issued and
outstanding stock of a publicly held corporation), corporate officer or director, or in any other individual or representative
capacity, engage or participate in any business that is in competition in any manner whatsoever with the business of the Company
Group, as such businesses are now or hereafter conducted. Subject to the foregoing prohibition and provided such services or investments
do not violate any applicable law, regulation or order, or interfere in any way with the faithful and diligent performance by
Employee of the services to the Company otherwise required or contemplated by this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges
that Employee may:


2.3.1       
make and manage personal business investments of Employee’s choice; and


2.3.2       
serve in any capacity with any non-profit civic, educational or charitable organization that does not interfere with Employee’s
duties and responsibilities to the Company.

Covenants of Employee. For so long as Employee is employed by any member of the Company Group, Employee agrees
to the following:

Reports. Employee shall use his best efforts and skills to truthfully, accurately, and promptly make, maintain, and
preserve all records and reports that the Company may, from time to time, request or require, fully account for all money, records,
equipment, materials, or other property belonging to the Company Group of which he may have custody.


2.4.2

comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Group first. Employee shall make all new business opportunities of which he becomes aware that are relevant to the Company Group’s

over the world and from individuals and estates seeking liquidity who possess investment grade diamonds and heirloom quality jewelry
available to the Company Group first, and to no other person or entity or to himself individually. Nothing in this paragraph is

3.2             
Expense Reimbursement. Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company, upon submission of such
itemized vouchers, receipts or other documentation with respect to any such expenses as shall be reasonably requested by the Company,

under this Agreement in a manner consistent with the Company’s practices and policies therefor.


3.3

Disability. In the event of any disability or illness of Employee, if Employee shall receive payments as a

the amount of such payments received from base salary payable to Employee during the period of such illness and/or disability.


3.5             
Withholding. The Company may deduct from any compensation payable to Employee (including payments made pursuant

payments, state disability and other insurance premiums and payments.

4.1             
upon the death of Employee;


4.2

4.3

5.                 
Compensation Upon Termination; Severance Compensation


5.1             
Upon termination of Employee’s employment for any reason: (a) Employee shall be entitled to commissions earned
through the date of termination of employment; (b) Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred prior to termination
of employment that are payable in accordance with Section 3; and (c) Employee shall be entitled to any benefits accrued
or earned in accordance with the terms of any applicable benefit plans and programs of the Company.


5.2             
If Employee’s employment terminates pursuant to Section 4.4 (by the Company For Cause), and subject
to applicable law and regulations, the Company shall be entitled to offset against any payments due Employee the loss and damage,
if any, which shall have been suffered by the Company as a result of the acts or omissions of Employee giving rise to termination
under Section 4.4. The foregoing shall not be construed to limit any cause of action, claim or other rights that the
Company may have against Employee in connection with such acts or omissions.


5.3             
As a condition to Employee’s right to receive continuation of salary and other benefits pursuant to Section 5:


5.3.1       
Employee must execute and deliver to the Company a written release, in a form and substance satisfactory to the Company,
of any and all claims against the Company Group and all directors and officers of the Company Group with respect to all matters
arising out of Employee’s employment by the Company, or the termination thereof, except for: (a) claims for entitlements
under the terms of this Agreement or plans or programs of the Company in which Employee has accrued a benefit, and (b) claims
for indemnification under the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, under any indemnification agreement between the
Company and Employee, or under applicable law; and


5.3.2       
Employee must not breach any of his covenants and agreements under Sections 2.3, 7 and 8, which
continue following termination of his employment.


5.4             
Employee acknowledges and agrees that in the event of termination of his employment for any reason, Employee shall
not be entitled to any severance or other compensation from the Company except as specifically provided in this Section 5.
Without limitation on the generality of the foregoing, this Section supersedes any plan or policy of the Company that provides
for severance to its officers or employees, and Employee shall not be entitled to any benefits under any such plan or policy.


5.5             
Employee shall have no obligation to offset any payments he receives from the Company following the termination of
his employment by any payments he receives from his subsequent employer, except that any payments Employee receives under the employee
benefit plans or programs of a subsequent employer shall offset any payments he receives from comparable employment benefit plans
or programs of the Company.


5.6             
Notwithstanding the timing of payments set forth in this Agreement, if the Company determines that Employee is a
“specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and
that, as a result of such status, any portion of the payment under this Agreement would be subject to additional taxation, the
Company will delay paying any portion of such payment until the earliest permissible date on which payments may commence without
triggering such additional taxation (with such delay not to exceed six months), with the first such payment to include the amounts
that would have been paid earlier but for the above delay.

in any way involve the Company or (b) will result in Employee’s inability to perform his obligations hereunder, including
any action which could be reasonably foreseen to require a significant amount of Employee’s time.


7.                 
Covenant Not To Solicit


7.1             
While employed by the Company, Employee shall not divert or attempt to divert (by solicitation or other means), whether

with the Company or to solicit them in connection with any product or service competing with those products and services offered
and sold by the Company.


7.2             
During the period from the date Employee’s employment with the Company terminates through the first anniversary
of such date, Employee will not directly or indirectly, either alone or by action in concert with others: (a) induce or attempt

8.                 
Confidential Information. Employee agrees to maintain in strictest confidence and not to disclose or use at
any time (whether during or after Employee’s employment with the Company) for Employee’s own benefit or purposes or
the benefit or purposes of any other Person any trade secrets, information, data, or other confidential information relating to
customers, development programs, costs, marketing, trading, investment, sales activities, promotion, credit and financial data,
financial methods, plans, or the business and affairs of the Company Group generally, provided that the foregoing shall
not apply to information which is generally known to the industry or the public other than as a result of Employee’s breach
of this covenant. Employee agrees that upon termination of his employment with the Company for any reason, he will return to the
Company immediately all memoranda, books, papers, plans, information, letters and other data, and all copies thereof or therefrom,
in any way relating to the business of the Company Group except that he may retain personal notes, notebooks, diaries, Rolodexes

Non-Compliance. Subject to the following sentence, but notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement
to the contrary, if Employee is employed by the Company, any breach of the provisions of Sections 2.3, 7 or
8 and any material breach of Section 6 shall permit the Company to terminate the employment of Employee For
Cause, and, whether or not Employee is employed by the Company, from and after any breach by Employee of the provisions of Sections 2.3,
7 or 8, the Company shall cease to have any obligation to make payments to Employee under this Agreement.


11.             
Specific Performance. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for a breach
or threatened breach of any of the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 would be inadequate and, in recognition of
this fact, Employee agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company,
without posting any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining
order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

Governing Law; Arbitration.


12.1         
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of California
without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of law. Any dispute or controversy between the Company and Employee, arising
out of or relating to this Agreement, the breach of this Agreement, or otherwise relating to Employee’s employment, shall
be settled by binding arbitration in Los Angeles, California, administered by a single arbitrator of the American Arbitration Association
in accordance with its “National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes” then in effect. The arbitration requirement
applies to all statutory, contractual, and/or common law claims arising from the employment relationship including, but not limited
to, claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; the Equal Pay Act
of 1963; the California Fair Employment and Housing Act; the California Labor Code; the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Americans
With Disabilities Act, and other applicable federal and state employment laws. Both the Company and Employee shall be precluded
from bringing or raising in court or another forum any dispute that was or could have been submitted to binding arbitration. This
arbitration requirement does not apply to claims for workers’ compensation benefits, claims arising under ERISA,
or claims for any provisional or injunctive relief remedies as set forth in the California Code of Civil Procedure (or any statute
or law of similar effect concerning provisional or injunctive relief remedies in any other applicable jurisdiction).



    	7



    	 



    




12.2         
The parties irrevocably agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts within Los Angeles, California
for any injunctive relief and in connection with any suit arising out of the confirmation or enforcement of any award rendered
by the arbitrator, and waive any defense based on forum non convenes or improper venue with respect thereto.


12.3         
Each party shall pay their own attorneys’ fees and costs. The arbitrator shall, within 30 days after the
conclusion of the arbitration, issue a written award setting forth the factual and legal bases for his or her decision, and judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. No remedy conferred in this
Agreement upon Employee or the Company is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every such remedy shall be
cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy conferred herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
by statute or otherwise.


12.4         
THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF EXECUTIVE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION
OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the sole and entire agreement and understanding of the parties with
respect to the entire subject matter of this Agreement, and any and all prior discussions, negotiations, commitments and understandings,

Judicial Interpretation. Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed
that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed

itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of this Agreement.


13.9         
No Assignment. Employee may not assign any of his rights or obligations under this Agreement except that Employee’s
benefits may be assigned by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

13.10     
Construction. No term or provision of this Agreement shall be construed so as to require the commission of
any act contrary to law, and wherever there is any conflict between any provision of this Agreement and any present or future statute,
law, ordinance, or regulation, the latter shall prevail, but in such event the affected provision of this Agreement shall be curtailed
and limited only to the extent necessary to bring such provision within the requirements of the law. References to “Sections”
in this Agreement shall mean Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise stated.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has
been made and entered into as of the date and year first above written.
