you by the CEO. This offer letter (the “Offer Letter”) amends and restates that certain offer letter provided to you
by the Company, dated September 2, 2019 and fully executed September 3, 2019 (the “Original Offer Letter”), in its
entirety. Your employment as CFO, on a full-time basis, commenced on September 23, 2019 (the “Full-Time Employment Commencement
Date”). Prior to such date and from September 9, 2019 (the “Employment Commencement Date”) you were employed
by the Company on a part-time basis.


 


		1.	Base Salary. Effective as of the Full-Time Employment Commencement
Date, the Company will pay you a base salary at the annual rate of $250,000.00. Your salary will be paid in bi-weekly installments
of $9,615.38, minus applicable taxes and withholdings, in accordance with the Company’s standard policies and regular payroll
schedule.
	 	 	 
		2.	Stock Award. On or after the Employment Commencement Date, and subject
to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), in consideration
of, and as an inducement for your services as CFO, the Company will grant you an award of 150,000 shares of restricted common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Restricted Shares”). The Restricted Shares shall be subject in all
respects to all terms and provisions of a restricted stock award agreement by and between you and the Company in effect at the
time of such grant (the “Award Agreement”). You may also be eligible for other awards granted under the Company’s
2018 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, which grants, if any, will be made subject to the sole discretion of the Board.
	 	 	 
		3.	Location. Your place of employment will be the Company’s office
located at 6840 Via Del Oro Ste. 280, San Jose, California 95119.
	 	 	 
		4.	Vacation. Commencing on the Employment Commencement Date, you will
accrue vacation days at a rate of three (3) weeks per year and will be subject to the Company’s policies as from time to
time in effect. The number of vacation days you accrue for 2019 will be prorated based on the Employment Commencement Date and
any future termination date.



 






     


     


    

 


 


 


		5.	Benefits. Commencing on the Full-Time Employment Commencement Date, you
will be eligible to participate in the benefit plans and bonus programs maintained by the Company, both discretionary and non-discretionary,
subject to the eligibility requirements and other terms of such plans and programs. The benefits offered by the Company may be
modified or changed at the discretion of the Company.



 


The provision of such benefits in no way changes

As a result, you are free to resign at any time by giving the Company written notice, for any reason or no reason. Similarly, the

a result of such Change of Control, all incentive equity compensation provided to you by the Company, including the Restricted
Shares, shall fully accelerate and vest, and you shall receive as severance (i) all cash bonuses due to you under the Company’s
incentive plans, prorated as of the effective date of termination, and (ii) an additional six (6) months of base salary and benefits.
Nothing contained in this Offer Letter may be construed to guarantee employment for any length of time or otherwise change the
at-will status of your employment.
