will end on the earlier of (i) the Employee’s death or mental or physical disability or incapacity, as reasonably determined
by the Company in good faith, (ii) the Employee’s resignation with or without Good Reason (as defined below) or (iii) termination
by the Company at any time with or without Cause (as defined below). Except as otherwise provided herein, any termination of the

(b)
If, during the Employment Period, the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated pursuant to Section 5(a)(i)
above, or is terminated by the Company with Cause, or if the Employee resigns for any reason other than Good Reason, then
the Employee will only be entitled to receive his Base Salary through the date of termination, and will not be entitled to any
other salary, bonus, severance, compensation or benefits from the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates thereafter,
other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985,
as amended (“COBRA”)).


 


(c)
If the Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Employee with Good Reason
during the Employment Period, and, in either case, (i) the Employee executes a general release in favor of the Company, its subsidiaries
and their affiliates, and such release becomes effective and is not revoked, and (ii) the Employee otherwise complies with the
terms of this Agreement, the Employee will be entitled to continue to receive his Base Salary for a period equal to three (3)
months after the date of termination. The severance payments payable to the Employee pursuant to this Section 5(c) will
be paid at the time and in the manner set forth in Section 3 hereof.


 


(d)
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of the Employee’s rights to salary, bonuses, fringe benefits, severance

written rules or policies or this Agreement which, if curable, is not cured within fifteen (15) days after written notice thereof
to the Employee. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean (i) a material diminution in the
Employee’s assigned duties, (ii) any breach of a material term of this Agreement by the Company, which breach is not cured
within fifteen (15) days following written notice to the Company of such breach, (iii) the Company requiring Employee to relocate

or its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ (including their predecessors) current or potential business and (ii) not generally

connection with the performance of his duties hereunder. The Employee agrees that he will not disclose to any unauthorized Person
or use for his own or any other purposes (except as described in the immediately preceding sentence) any Confidential Information
without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors, unless and to the extent that (a) the Confidential Information becomes
generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of the Employee’s acts or omissions or (b)
the Employee is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction to disclose Confidential Information, provided that in such circumstance
the Employee must (i) provide prompt written notice of such order to the Company and (ii) cooperate with the Company when revealing
such Confidential Information to such court.

unpublished memoranda or other documents, whether in paper, electronic or other form (and all copies thereof), held by the Employee
concerning any information relating to the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, whether confidential or not, are
the property of the Company. The Employee will deliver to the Company at the termination or expiration of the Employment Period,
or at any other time the Company may request, all equipment, files, property, memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer
tapes, printouts and software and other documents and data (and all electronic, paper or other copies thereof) belonging to the
Company or any of its subsidiaries which includes, but is not limited to, any materials that contain, embody or relate to the
Confidential Information, Work Product (as defined in Section 8 below) or the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
and known to the Employee to be within his possession or under his control. The Employee will take any and all actions reasonably
deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion to ensure the continued confidentiality
and protection of the Confidential Information. The Employee will notify the Company promptly and in writing of any circumstances
of which the Employee has knowledge relating to any possession or use of any Confidential Information by any Person other than
those authorized by the terms of this Agreement.


 


Section
8. Intellectual Property Rights. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that all inventions, technology, processes, innovations,
ideas, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, trademarks, service marks, and other indicia of origin, writings,
audiovisual works, concepts, drawings, reports and all similar, related, or derivative information or works (whether or not patentable
or subject to copyright), including but not limited to all patents, copyrights, copyright registrations, trademarks, and trademark
registrations in and to any of the foregoing, along with the right to practice, employ, exploit, use, develop, reproduce, copy,
distribute copies, publish, license, or create works derivative of any of the foregoing, and the right to choose not to do or
permit any of the aforementioned actions, which relate to the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ or affiliates’
actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed
or made by the Employee in the course of his employment while employed by the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the
“Work Product”), belong to the Company or such subsidiary. All Work Product created by the Employee while employed
by the Company will be considered “work made for hire,” and as such, the Company is the sole owner of all rights,
title, and interests therein. All other rights to any new Work Product and all rights to any existing Work Product, including
but not limited to all of the Employee’s rights to any copyrights or copyright registrations related thereto, are conveyed,
assigned and transferred to the Company pursuant to this Agreement. The Employee will promptly disclose and deliver such Work
Product to the Company and, at the Company’s expense, perform all actions reasonably requested by the Company (whether during
or after the Employment Period) to establish, confirm and protect such ownership (including, without limitation, the execution
of assignments, copyright registrations, consents, licenses, powers of attorney and other instruments). All Work Product made
within six (6) months after expiration of the Employment Period will be presumed to have been conceived during the Employment
Period, unless the Employee can prove conclusively that it was created after the Employment Period.

9. Employee’s Representations. The Employee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) he has entered
into this Agreement of his own free will for no consideration other than as referred to herein, (ii) the execution, delivery and

and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect

law shall still govern. The parties agree that the courts located in the City and County of Burbank, California, shall have exclusive
jurisdiction, including in personam jurisdiction, and shall be the exclusive venue for any and all controversies and claims arising

shall commence any action or proceeding against another party in order to enforce the provisions hereof, or to recover damages
as the result of the alleged breach of any of the provisions hereof, the prevailing party therein shall be entitled to recover

of Directors, the Employee will not accept or pursue, directly or indirectly, any Corporate Opportunities on the Employee’s
own behalf.

by the Board of Directors and promptly reimburse the Employee for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including
