for good reason ("Good Reason") following the occurrence of one or more of the events constituting "Good Reason."
For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events (unless
such event is curable, in which case such event will not constitute Good Reason unless such event remains uncured fifteen (15) days following

such reduction is applied in like proportion to all similarly situated executives of the Corporation or the Company); (iii) a relocation
of the Executive's primary place of work to a site more than fifty (50) miles from the Executive's primary place of work as of the Effective

(h)        Effect of Termination. Effective as of any date of termination of the Executive's employment with the Company or any of
its subsidiaries, without any further action required by any party, the Executive shall be removed from, and shall no longer hold, all
positions then held by him with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Executive agrees that he shall execute any documentation,
resignations or similar documents reasonably necessary to give effect to the provisions of this Section 8(h).


 


(i)          Cessation of Professional Activity. Upon delivery of a written notice of termination by any party, the Company may relieve
the Executive of his duties and responsibilities and require the Executive to immediately cease all professional activity on behalf the
Company and its subsidiaries. In addition, in the event that the Board determines that there is a reasonable basis for it to investigate
whether circumstances exist that would, if true, permit the Board to terminate the Executive's employment for Cause, the Board may relieve
the Executive of his duties and responsibilities during the pendency of such investigation. During any period that the Executive is relieved
of duties and responsibilities pursuant to this Section 8(i), the Executive shall continue to be entitled to all salary, benefits,

10.         Confidential Information.


 


(a)      The
Executive agrees to at all times during the Term and thereafter: (i) hold in the strictest confidence and neither use in any manner
detrimental to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, nor disclose, publish or divulge, directly or indirectly, to any
individual or entity, any Confidential Information; and (ii) inform all other persons or entities to whom the Executive discloses
Confidential Information of the proprietary interest and nature of such Confidential Information and of the recipient's obligations to
keep such information confidential. The Executive agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall apply whether or not such information
is marked "Confidential".


 


(b)         For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Confidential Information" shall include, with respect to the Company
and each of its subsidiaries, all data, information, reports, interpretations, forecasts and records, financial or otherwise, including
all property owned by the Company and each of its subsidiaries or in which any of them have any rights and information related to the
business or financial affairs of the Company and each of its subsidiaries, including but not limited to customer lists and accounts, prospective
customer lists, customer data, systems, policies, manuals, advertising, marketing plans, marketing strategies, research, trade secrets,
business plans, financial data, strategies, methods of conducting business, cost and pricing information, formulas, processes, procedures,
standards, manuals, techniques, designs, technology, confidential reports, computer software, financial and performance results and other
data, telephone and other contact lists, contract forms, catalogues, books, records, files and all other information, knowledge, or data
of any kind or nature relating to the products, services, customers, financing sources, employees, investors or business of the Company
and each of its subsidiaries. The term "Confidential Information" does not include information that: (i) is or becomes
generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by any person having an obligation of confidentiality to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries; (ii) was or becomes available to the Executive on a non-confidential basis from a source other
than the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates and other than in connection with the Executive's employment by the Company; provided
that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality
to the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to such information; (iii) is required to be disclosed by order of a court
of competent jurisdiction, administrative agency or governmental body, or by any law, rule or regulation, or by subpoena, summons or any
other administrative or legal process, or by applicable regulatory standards, after notice of such requirement has been given to the Company,
and the Company has had a reasonable opportunity to oppose such disclosure; or (iv) is disclosed with the written approval of the
Board.


 






    - 7 -


     


    

 


(c)        If the Executive becomes legally required (whether by deposition, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas,
civil investigative demands or similar processes) to disclose any Confidential Information, he will provide the Company with prompt notice
thereof so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and the Executive will, at the Company's expense,
cooperate with and assist the Company in securing such protective order or other remedy. In the event that such protective order is not
obtained, or the Company waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 10 to permit a particular disclosure, the Executive
shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that he is advised by counsel in writing is legally required to be disclosed
and shall exercise his reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be afforded the Confidential
Information. The Executive further agrees that all memoranda, disks, files, notes, records or other documents that contain Confidential
Information, whether in electronic form or hard copy, and whether created by the Executive or others, that come into his possession, shall
be and shall remain the exclusive property of the Company to be used by the Executive only in the performance of his obligations hereunder.


 


(d)         The Executive is hereby notified that 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) states as follows: “An individual shall not be held criminally
or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that—(A) 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 (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit
or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.” Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Executive has the right to (1) disclose in confidence trade secrets to federal, state, and local government officials, or
to an attorney, for the sole purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of the law or (2) disclose trade secrets in a
document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding so long as that filing is made under seal and protected from public disclosure. Nothing
in this Agreement is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are
expressly allowed by 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b).


 


11.         Return of Documents and Property. Upon termination of the Executive's employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries
(for any reason) or at any other time upon the request of the Company, the Executive (or his heirs or personal representatives): (a) shall
deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Company, and shall not retain, all memoranda, disks, files, notes, records, documents or other
materials obtained in connection with the Executive's employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or which otherwise relate
to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries (whether or not containing Confidential Information) and shall not retain any copies
thereof in any format or storage medium (including computer disk or memory); (b) purge from any computer system in his possession,
other than those owned by and returned to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, all computer files that contain or are based upon any
Confidential Information and confirm such purging in writing to the Company; and (c) return any other property that rightfully belongs
to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including, without limitation, computers and cellular phones, in accordance with the Company's
policy in effect from time to time.

12.       Non-Compete. The Executive agrees during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending twenty-four (24) months following
the conclusion of the Term (the "Non-Compete Period"), not to, directly or indirectly (including through any affiliate),
(a) compete with Company or its subsidiaries or the business of the Company or its subsidiaries as conducted on the last date of
the Term (the "Business") or (b) (other than as a director, employee, agent, consultant, shareholder, member or
manager of the Business or the Company) as an individual proprietor, partner, shareholder, member, equity holder, officer, director, manager,
employee, consultant, independent contractor, joint venturer, investor or lender or otherwise, participate in any business or enterprise
engaged anywhere in the United States in the provision of any services that are the same as, substantially similar to or competitive with
the services that the Company or any of its subsidiaries was selling or providing or, to the Executive's knowledge, actively planning
to sell or provide, during the twelve months preceding the end of the Term (each, a "Competing Business"), provided that
this clause (b) shall not be construed to prevent the Executive from being employed by a division or a subsidiary of a Competing Business
if the Executive's services to such division or subsidiary do not, in fact, compete with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The foregoing
restrictions shall not be construed to prohibit the ownership by the Executive of (i) not more than three percent (3%) of any class
of equity securities of any corporation having a class of equity securities registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(a "public company") that are publicly owned and regularly traded on any national securities exchange or over-the-counter
market or (ii) debt instruments of any privately owned entity, governmental entity, governmental entity, quasi-governmental entity,
bond issuer or public company, if, with respect to both clauses (i) and (ii), such ownership represents a personal investment and
the Executive does not either directly or indirectly in any way manage or exercise control of any such privately owned entity, governmental
entity, quasi-governmental entity, bond issuer or public company, guarantee any of its financial obligations or otherwise take part in
its business other than exercising the Executive's rights as a debt or equity holder, or seek to do any of the foregoing.


 


13.        Non-Solicitation of Vendors, Etc. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending two (2) years following the
conclusion of the Term (the "Vendor Non-Solicitation Period"), the Executive agrees not to, except as otherwise necessary
or advisable in the performance of his duties as an officer, director, manager, employee or consultant of the Company, its subsidiaries,
or any of their respective affiliates, directly or indirectly, on his behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity (a) induce
or solicit any supplier, subcontractor, licensee, distributor, funding source or business relation, or any person or entity that was a
supplier, subcontractor, licensee, distributor, funding source or business relation at any time during the twelve (12) months preceding
the end of the Term, to cease doing business with the Business or the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or in any way negatively interfere
with the relationship between any such supplier, subcontractor, licensee, distributor, funding source or business relation of the Business,
the Company or any of their respective affiliates; (b) disclose the identity of any supplier, subcontractor, licensee, distributor,
funding source or business relation of the Business or the Company or any of its subsidiaries to any person or entity if such relationship
is confidential; or (c) attempt to do any of the foregoing, or knowingly assist, entice, induce or encourage any other person or
entity to do or attempt to do any activity which, were it done by the Executive, would violate any provision of this Section 14.


 


14.       Non-Solicitation or Hire of Employees. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending two (2) years following
the conclusion of the Term, the Executive agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or in any manner encourage to leave
the employ of the Company for an engagement in any capacity by another person or entity, or hire any employee or consultant of the Company
or any person who was an employee or consultant of the Company at any time during the last six (6) months of the Term. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Executive shall not by reason of this Agreement be precluded from engaging in general solicitations of employment not
targeted at employees and consultants of the Company.

15.         Enforceability of Restrictive Covenants.


 


(a)         In the event that the Executive's employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries (i) is terminated by the Company
or such subsidiary for any reason other than for Cause (including the Company's delivery of a Non-Extension Notice) or (ii) the Executive
terminates his employment with the Company for Good Reason, then the terms of both the Non-Compete Period and the Vendor Non-Solicitation
Period shall be reduced such that they end on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the conclusion of the Term.


 


(b)        The Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the restrictions on his activities contained in Sections 10, 11, 12,
13 and 14 hereof are necessary for the reasonable protection of the Company, its subsidiaries and their goodwill and are a material inducement
to the Company entering into this Agreement and (ii) a breach or threatened breach of any such provisions will cause irreparable
harm to the Company and its subsidiaries for which there is no adequate remedy at law.


 


(c)         The Executive agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision contained in Sections 10, 11, 12, 13
and 14 hereof, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to the Company at law, in equity or
otherwise, to a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction or injunctions and temporary restraining order or orders to prevent breaches
of such provisions and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions thereof.


 


(d)      The parties acknowledge that the time, scope and other provisions contained in Sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 hereof are reasonable
and necessary to protect the goodwill and business of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any covenant contained in Sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 hereof is held to be unenforceable by reason of the time or scope, such covenant
shall be interpreted to extend to the maximum time or scope for which it may be enforced as determined by a court making such determination,
and such covenant shall only apply in its reduced form to the operation of such covenant in the particular jurisdiction in which such
adjudication is made.


 


(e)         In the event of any breach by the Executive of any of the restrictive covenants contained in Sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 hereof,
the running of the period of the applicable restriction shall be automatically tolled and suspended for the duration of such breach, and
shall automatically recommence when such breach is remedied in order that the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates shall receive
the full benefit of the Executive's compliance with each of the covenants contained in Sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 hereof.


 


(f)        The provisions of Sections 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 hereof are in addition to and supplement any other agreements, covenants or obligations
to which the Executive is or may be bound from time to time, including agreements, covenants and obligations set forth in the Operating
Partnership Agreement of the Company, the Equity Incentive Plan and any grant agreement.

16.        Representations and Warranties; Indemnity. The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that the execution and delivery
of this Agreement by him and the performance by him of his obligations hereunder shall not constitute (with or without notice or lapse
of time or both) a breach or violation of a provision of any understanding, contract or commitment, written or oral, express or implied,
to which the Executive is a party or to which the Executive is or may be bound, including, without limitation, any understanding, contract
or commitment with any present or former employer, in each case, that imposes restrictions that would, or would reasonably be expected
to, interfere with the Executive's ability to perform his obligations under this Agreement. The Executive hereby agrees to indemnify and
hold the Company harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by the Company in connection with any such breach or violation by the Executive of any such understanding,
contract or commitment.


 


17.      Taxes. Payment of all compensation and benefits to the Executive by the Company shall be subject to all legally required
and customary withholdings. The Company makes no representations regarding the tax implications of the compensation and benefits to be
paid to the Executive under this Agreement, including, without limitation, under Section 409A ("Section 409A")
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and applicable administrative guidance and regulations.
It is intended that this Agreement will comply with Section 409A and all regulations and guidance issued thereunder to the extent
the Agreement is subject thereto, and the Agreement shall be interpreted on a basis consistent with such intent.


 


(a)       Each payment made under this Agreement shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. Amounts payable under
this Agreement shall be deemed not to be a "deferral of compensation" subject to Section 409A to the extent provided in the
exceptions in Treasury Regulation §§ 1.409A-l(b)(4) ("short-term deferrals") and (b)(9) ("separation pay plans,"
including the exception under subparagraph (iii)) and other applicable provisions of Treasury Regulation §§ 1.409A-1 through
A-6.


 


(b)       Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the following special rule shall apply, if and to the extent required
by Section 409A, in the event that (i) Executive is deemed to be a "specified employee" within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i),
(ii) amounts or benefits under this Agreement or any other program, plan or arrangement of the Company or a controlled group affiliate
thereof are due or payable on account of "separation from service" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(h)
and (iii) Executive is employed by a public company or a controlled group affiliate thereof: no payments hereunder that are "deferred
compensation" subject to Section 409A shall be made to Executive prior to the date that is six (6) months after the date of separation
from service or, if earlier, the date of death; following any applicable six (6) month delay, all such delayed payments will be paid in
a single lump sum on the earliest permissible payment date.

(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any payment or benefit under this Agreement or otherwise that is exempt
from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-l(b)(9)(v)(A) or (C) (relating to certain reimbursements and in-kind benefits)
shall be paid or provided to Executive only to the extent that the expenses are not incurred, or the benefits are not provided, beyond
the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive's "separation from service" occurs;
and provided further that such expenses are reimbursed no later than the last day of the third calendar year following the calendar year
in which Executive's "separation from service" occurs. To the extent any indemnification payment, expense reimbursement or the
provision of any in-kind benefit is determined to be subject to Section 409A (and not exempt pursuant to the prior sentence or otherwise),
the amount of any such indemnification payment or expenses eligible for reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit in one calendar
year shall not affect the indemnification payment or provision of in-kind benefits or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other
calendar year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), and in no event shall any indemnification
payment or expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurred such
indemnification payment or expenses, and in no event shall any right to indemnification payment or reimbursement or the provision of any
in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.


 


18.        Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective heirs, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and the Executive consents to the assignment by the Company
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any subsidiary the Company or to any purchaser or assignee of all or substantially
all of the stock or assets of the Company or its business. The Executive may not assign any of his rights or delegate any of his duties
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Board (which may be granted or withheld in the Board's sole discretion).


 


19.       Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the agreements referred to herein, constitute the entire agreement and understanding
of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, arrangements,
promises and commitments, whether written or oral, express or implied, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and all such
prior agreements, understandings, arrangements, promises and commitments are hereby cancelled and terminated.


 


20.       Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or modified in whole or in part except by an instrument in writing
signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, supplement or modification is sought.


 


21.       Survival. Subject to the last sentence of Section 2, the provisions of Sections 8(h) and 9 through 36 hereof shall
survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement and the Term.

Either party may change the address to which notice
shall be sent by giving notice of such change of address to the other party in the manner provided above.


 


23.       Waivers. The failure or delay of any party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect the right of
such party to enforce the same or any other provision of this Agreement. The waiver by any party of any breach of any provision of this
Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver by such party of any succeeding breach of such provision or a waiver by such party of a breach
of any other provision. The granting of any consent or approval by any party in any one instance shall not be construed to waive or limit
the need for such consent or approval in any other or subsequent instance.


 


24.       Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereby agree that all questions concerning the construction, validity and
interpretation of this Agreement and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, together with any dispute arising hereunder,
shall be governed by the internal Laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law provision or
rule, notwithstanding that public policy in Texas or any other forum jurisdiction might indicate that the Laws of that or any other jurisdiction
should otherwise apply based on contacts with such state or otherwise. Each party hereby irrevocably agree that any legal action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought exclusively in the
courts of the State of Texas or any federal court of the District of Texas and hereby expressly submits to the personal jurisdiction and
venue of such courts for the purposes thereof and expressly waives any claim of improper venue and any claim that such courts are an inconvenient
forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such suit, action
or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the address provided in accordance
with Section 23 above, such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing.


 


25.        Severability.
Without limiting the generality of Section 15(e), if any term or provision of this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain enforceable
and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions shall be modified so as to be valid and enforceable and shall be enforced.

26.       Section Headings. Section headings are included in this Agreement for convenience of reference only, and shall in no
way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.


 


27.      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but
all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.


 


28.       Number of Days. In computing the number of days for purposes of this Agreement, all days shall be counted, including Saturdays,
Sundays and holidays; provided, however, if the final day of any time period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday on which
federal banks in the United States are or may elect to be closed, then the final day shall be deemed to be the next day that is not Saturday,
Sunday or such holiday.


 


29.       Enforcement of Rights; Decisions by the Board. Any and all decisions to be made by the Company in connection with enforcing
the terms and provisions of this Agreement (or exercising any right or remedy hereunder) shall be made by a vote of the majority of the
Board (excluding, for any such purpose, the vote of the Executive, if he is then serving on the Board).


 


30.     Cooperation with Regard to Litigation. The Executive agrees to cooperate with the Company, during the Term and thereafter,
by being available as reasonably requested to testify on behalf of the Company or its subsidiaries in any action, suit or proceeding relating
to the Company or its business, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative. In addition, except to the extent that the Executive
has or intends to assert in good faith an interest or position adverse to or inconsistent with the interest or position of the Company
or its subsidiaries, the Executive agrees to cooperate with the Company and its subsidiaries, during the Term and thereafter to assist
the Company and its subsidiaries in any such action, suit or proceeding by providing information and meeting and consulting with the Board
or its representatives or counsel, or representatives or counsel to the Company or its subsidiaries, in each case, as reasonably requested
by the Company. The Company agrees to pay (or reimburse, if already paid by the Executive) all reasonable expenses actually incurred in
connection with the Executive's cooperation and assistance including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel,
if any, chosen by the Executive.


 


31.     Joint Drafting. In recognition of the fact that the parties hereto had an equal opportunity to draft and to negotiate the
language of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that there is no single drafter of this Agreement and therefore, the general
rule that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafter is, and shall be, inapplicable.


 


32.        Cumulative Remedies. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any
rights or remedies otherwise available, whether by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise.

33.       Indulgences; Waiver of Breach. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of either party to exercise any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or any other right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any
right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with
respect to any other occurrence.


 


34.       Assignment; Binding Nature of Agreement. This Agreement is personal to Executive, and Executive may not assign, delegate
or transfer his rights or obligations hereunder. This Agreement is assignable by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion; provided
that the assignee is not less creditworthy in any material respect than the Company. This Agreement, including the restrictive covenants
in Sections 12 and 13 above, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns, and shall be
binding upon Executive, his heirs and legal representatives.


 


35.      No
Statements or Promises to Executive. Executive acknowledges that no statements or promises have been made to Executive and Executive
has not relied upon any statements or promises as an inducement to accept employment or sign this Agreement, except those statements
contained herein.


 


36.       Withholding; Taxes. The Company may deduct and withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such Federal, state,
local, non-U.S. or other taxes as are required or permitted to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. Executive shall
be responsible for all taxes (including self-employment taxes, if applicable) in connection with his status as a member of the Company
for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
