Executive agrees that he will not, at any time during the Term of Agreement or thereafter, disclose or use any trade secret,
proprietary or confidential information of the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, obtain during the course of
her employment, except as required in the course of such employment or with the written permission of the company or, as
applicable, any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company or as may be required by law, provided that, if the Executive receives

Affiliates as conducted during the term hereof. In any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any of the provisions
of this Section 7 shall not be enforceable because of the duration or scope thereof, the parties hereto agree that said court
shall have the power to reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable and this
Agreement in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the extent permitted by law; and

(except those made from Company-sponsored tax-qualified pension or welfare plans), benefits or other entitlements to which the
Executive may be eligible in accordance with the terms hereof, may be forfeited, whether or not in pay status, at the discretion
of the Company, if the Executive breaches the provisions as set forth in Section 7(A) or 7(B). The payments, benefits and other
entitlements hereunder are being made in part in consideration of the obligations of this Section 7 and in particular the
post-employment payments, benefits and other entitlements are being made in consideration of, and dependent upon, compliance with
this Section 7.

D.                 Anything
in Section 7(C) to the contrary notwithstanding, no forfeiture or cancellation shall take place with respect to any payments,
benefits or entitlements hereunder or under any other award agreement, plan or practice unless the Company shall have first given
the Executive written notice of its intent to so forfeit, or cancel or pay out and Executive has not, within 30 calendar days of
giving such notice, ceased such unpermitted activity, provided that the foregoing prior notice procedure shall not be required
with respect to:

(1)                 An
activity which the Executive initiated after the Company had informed the Executive in writing that it believed such activity

competitive activity regarding products or services which are part of a line of business which represents more than 5% of the

9.       Indemnification.

A.                 The
Company agrees that if the Executive is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a Proceeding), by reason of the fact that he is or was a
director, officer or employee of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, member,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to
employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is the Executives alleged action in an official capacity
while serving as a director, officer, member, employee or agent, the Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Company to the fullest extent legally permitted or authorized by the Companys certificate of incorporation or by-laws or
resolutions of the Companys Board of Directors or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Minnesota, against all cost,
expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or other
liabilities or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in
connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to the Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, member,
employee or agent of the Company or other entity and shall inure to the benefit of the executives heirs, executors and
administrators. The Company shall advance to the Executive all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with a
Proceeding within 30 calendar days after receipt by the Company of a written request for such advance. Such request shall include
an undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled
to be indemnified against such costs and expenses.

B.                 Neither
the failure of the Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel or members) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by the Executive under Section 9(A) above that
indemnification of the Executive is proper because she has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor a determination by the
Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel or members) that the Executive has not met such applicable standard of
conduct, shall create a presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

C.                 The
Company agrees to continue and maintain a directors and officers liability insurance policy covering the Executive to
the extent the Company provides such coverage for its other executive officers.

10.       Assignability;
Binding Nature.

This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of the Executive) and
assigns. Rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Company pursuant to a
merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the continuing entity, or the sale or liquidation of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in
this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. The Company further agrees that, in the event of a sale of assets or
liquidation as described in the preceding sentence, it shall take whatever action it reasonably can in order to cause such
assignee or transferee to expressly assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No rights or
obligations of the Executive under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive other than her rights to
compensation and benefits, which may be transferred only by Will or operation of law.

11.       Representation.

The Company represents and
warrants that it is fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of its obligations under
this Agreement will not violate any agreement between it and any other person, firm or organization. The Executive represents that

organization that would be violated by the performance of her obligations under this Agreement.

No provision in this
Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an authorized officer of

prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by the Executive and approved by the Board.
