U.S.
Gold Corp.


2020
Stock incentive plan


 


1.
Grant of Option. Pursuant the U.S. Gold Corp. 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for employees,
officers, consultants, independent contractors, and non-employee Directors of U.S. Gold Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”),
the Company grants to


 




(the “Participant”)


 


an
option (the “Stock Option”) to purchase a total of ______________ full Shares of the Company (the “Optioned
Shares”) at an “Option Price” equal to $____ per share (being the Fair Market Value of
a Share on the Date of Grant).


 


The
“Date of Grant” of this Stock Option is ____________. The “Option Period”
shall commence on the Date of Grant and shall expire on the date immediately preceding the tenth (10th) anniversary
of the Date of Grant, unless terminated earlier in accordance with Section 4 below. The Stock Option is a Nonqualified
Stock Option that is intended to comply with the provisions governing nonqualified stock options under the final Treasury Regulations
issued on April 17, 2007, in order to exempt this Stock Option from application of Section 409A of the Code.


 


2.
Subject to Plan. The Stock Option and its exercise are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, and the terms of
the Plan shall control to the extent not otherwise inconsistent with the provisions of this Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement
(this “Agreement”). The capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Plan shall have the same
meanings assigned to them in the Plan. The Stock Option is subject to any rules promulgated pursuant to the Plan by the Board
or the Committee, as applicable, and communicated to the Participant in writing.


 


3.
Vesting; Time of Exercise. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the Optioned Shares shall be vested, and
the Stock Option shall be exercisable as follows:


 


a.
______ of the total Optioned Shares (rounded down for any fractional Shares) shall vest on ____________________________, provided
the Participant is providing services to the Company or an Affiliate on the applicable vesting date.


 


b.
The remaining unvested Optioned Shares shall vest on ___________________, provided the Participant is providing services to the
Company or an Affiliate on that date.


 


4.
Term; Forfeiture. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, to the extent the unexercised portion of the Stock Option
relates to Optioned Shares that are not vested on the date the Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, the Stock Option will
be terminated on that date. The unexercised portion of the Stock Option that relates to Optioned Shares which are vested on such
date will terminate at the first of the following to occur:


 


a.
5 p.m. on the date the Option Period terminates;


 


b.
5 p.m. on the date that is 90 days following the date on which the Participant ceases to be a Service Provider; or


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


c.
5 p.m. on the date the Company causes any portion of the Stock Option to be forfeited pursuant to Section 7 hereof.


 


5.
Who May Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Sections 3 and 4 above, during the lifetime of
the Participant, the Stock Option may be exercised only by the Participant, or by the Participant’s guardian or personal
or legal representative. If the Participant ceases to be a Service Provider due to his death prior to the dates specified in Section
4.a. hereof, and the Participant has not exercised the Stock Option as to the maximum number of vested Optioned Shares as
set forth in Section 3 hereof as of the date of death, the following persons may exercise the exercisable portion of the
Stock Option on behalf of the Participant at any time prior to the earliest of the dates specified in Section 4.a. hereof:
the personal representative of his estate or the person who acquired the right to exercise the Stock Option by bequest or inheritance
or by reason of the death of the Participant, provided that the Stock Option shall remain subject to the other terms of this Agreement,
the Plan, and all applicable laws, rules, and regulations.


 


6.
No Fractional Shares. The Stock Option may be exercised only with respect to full Shares, and no fractional Shares shall
be issued.


 


7.
Manner of Exercise. Subject to such administrative regulations as the Committee may from time to time adopt, the Stock
Option may be exercised by the delivery of written notice to the Committee setting forth the number of Shares with respect to
which the Stock Option is to be exercised and the date of exercise thereof (the “Exercise Date”), which
shall be at least three (3) days after giving such notice unless an earlier time shall have been mutually agreed upon. On the
Exercise Date, the Participant (or his legal representative) shall deliver to the Company consideration with a value equal to
the total Option Price of the Shares to be purchased, payable as follows: (a) cash, check, bank draft, or money order payable
to the order of the Company; (b) if the Company, in its sole discretion, so consents in writing, Shares owned by the Participant
on the Exercise Date, valued at their Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, and which the Participant has not acquired from
the Company within six (6) months prior to the Exercise Date; (c) by requesting the Company to withhold the number of Shares otherwise
deliverable upon exercise of the Stock Option by the number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate
Option Price at the time of exercise (i.e., a cashless net exercise), and/or (d) in any other form of valid consideration
that is acceptable to the Committee in its sole discretion.


 


Upon
payment of all amounts due from the Participant, the Company shall cause certificates for the Shares then being purchased to be
delivered to the Participant or registered in his name promptly after the Exercise Date. The obligation of the Company to deliver
or register the Shares shall, however, be subject to the condition that, if at any time the Company shall determine in its discretion
that the listing, registration, or qualification of the Stock Option or the Shares upon any securities exchange or inter-dealer
quotation system or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary
as a condition of, or in connection with, the Stock Option or the issuance or purchase of Shares thereunder, then the Stock Option
may not be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, or approval shall have been
effected or obtained free of any conditions not reasonably acceptable to the Committee.


 


If
the Participant fails to pay for any of the Optioned Shares specified in such notice or fails to accept delivery thereof, that
portion of the Participant’s Stock Option and the right to purchase such Optioned Shares may be forfeited by the Participant.

8.
Nonassignability. The Stock Option is not assignable or transferable by the Participant except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution.


 


9.
Rights as Stockholder. The Participant will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any of the Optioned Shares
until the issuance of a certificate or certificates to the Participant or the registration of such Shares in the Participant’s
name. The Optioned Shares shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Section
10 hereof, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the issuance of
such certificate or certificates. The Participant, by his execution of this Agreement, agrees to execute any documents requested
by the Company in connection with the issuance of the Shares.


 


10.
Adjustment of Number of Optioned Shares and Related Matters. The number of Shares covered by the Stock Option and the Option
Prices thereof shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4(c) of the Plan.


 


11.
Nonqualified Stock Option. The Stock Option shall not be treated as an Incentive Stock Option.


 


12.
Voting. The Participant, as record holder of some or all of the Optioned Shares following exercise of this Stock Option,
has the exclusive right to vote, or consent with respect to, such Optioned Shares until such time as the Optioned Shares are transferred
in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that this Section shall not create any voting right where the holders of
such Optioned Shares otherwise have no such right.


 


13.
Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that remedies at law will be inadequate remedies for breach of this Agreement
and consequently agree that this Agreement shall be enforceable by specific performance. The remedy of specific performance shall
be cumulative of all of the rights and remedies at law or in equity of the parties under this Agreement.


 


14.
Participant’s Representations. Notwithstanding any of the provisions hereof, the Participant hereby agrees that he
will not exercise the Stock Option granted hereby, and that the Company will not be obligated to issue any Shares to the Participant
hereunder, if the exercise thereof or the issuance of such Shares shall constitute a violation by the Participant or the Company
of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority. Any determination in this connection by the Company shall
be final, binding, and conclusive. The obligations of the Company and the rights of the Participant are subject to all applicable
laws, rules, and regulations.


 


15.
Investment Representation. Unless the Shares are issued to the Participant in a transaction registered under applicable
federal and state securities laws, by his execution hereof, the Participant represents and warrants to the Company that all Shares
which may be purchased hereunder will be acquired by the Participant for investment purposes for his own account and not with
any intent for resale or distribution in violation of federal or state securities laws. Unless the Shares are issued to him in
a transaction registered under the applicable federal and state securities laws, all certificates issued with respect to the Shares
shall bear an appropriate restrictive investment legend and shall be held indefinitely, unless they are subsequently registered
under the applicable federal and state securities laws or the Participant obtains an opinion of counsel, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that such registration is not required.


 


16.
Participant’s Acknowledgments. The Participant acknowledges that a copy of the Plan has been made available for his
review by the Company and represents that he is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof, and hereby accepts this Stock
Option subject to all the terms and provisions thereof. The Participant hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive, and final
all decisions or interpretations of the Committee or the Board, as appropriate, upon any questions arising under the Plan or this
Agreement.

of this Agreement to the laws of another state).


 


18.
No Right to Continue Service or Employment. Nothing herein shall be construed to confer upon the Participant the right
to continue in the employ or to provide services to the Company or any Subsidiary, whether as an Employee, Contractor, or Outside
Director, or to interfere with or restrict in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to discharge the Participant

or modification is in writing and signed by the parties; provided, however, that the Company may change or modify this Agreement
without the Participant’s consent or signature if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such change or modification
is necessary for purposes of compliance with or exemption from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or any regulations
or other guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company may amend the Plan to the extent permitted
by the Plan.

from all amounts paid in cash or other form in connection with this Agreement, any federal, state, local, or other taxes required

withhold in connection with the Participant’s income arising with respect to the Optioned Shares. Such payments shall be
required to be made when requested by the Company and may be required to be made prior to the delivery of any certificate representing
Shares. Such payment may be made by the Participant: (a) electing to have the Company withhold a portion of the Shares otherwise

accounting treatment); (b) delivering to the Company, Shares other than Shares issuable upon exercise of such Optioned Shares
with a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such required tax withholdings; or (c) delivering cash to the Company in an amount
that equals the required tax withholding obligations of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole
discretion, withhold any such taxes from any other cash remuneration otherwise paid by the Company to the Participant.
