	Article 6	Arbitration of Disputes.	Employee initials _________




 


6.1             Scope, Governing Rules. Except for claims for injunctive relief, which may be filed in any court of competent jurisdiction,
any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to Employee’s employment, or the termination thereof, or to this Agreement,
or the breach thereof, specifically including the validity of this arbitration clause, shall be determined by final and binding
arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Employment Arbitration Rules and
Mediation Procedures. There shall be one arbitrator agreed to by the parties within twenty (20) days of receipt by the respondent
of a request for arbitration or in default thereof appointed by the AAA in accordance with applicable rules. The Employer shall
be responsible for the cost of the arbitration, including the Arbitrator’s fees and all administrative costs. The Employee
and the Company will each be responsible for their own legal fees.


 


6.2             Authority of Arbitrator; Judicial Review. The arbitrators will have no authority to award punitive, consequential,
liquidated or compensatory damages, and the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, non-reviewable, non-appealable and
binding on the parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction.


 


6.3             Location of Arbitration. The seat or place of arbitration shall be Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia.


 


6.4             Confidentiality. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence,
content or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, unless to protect or pursue a legal right.


 


	Article 7	Miscellaneous.




 


7.1             Construction of Agreement; Severability. The covenants contained herein shall be presumed
to be enforceable, and any reading causing unenforceability shall yield to a construction permitting enforcement. If any single
covenant or clause shall be found unenforceable, it shall be severed and the remaining covenants and clauses enforced in accordance
with the tenor of the Agreement. In the event a court should determine not to enforce a covenant as written due to overbreadth,
the parties specifically agree that said covenant shall be enforced to the extent reasonable, whether said revisions are in time,
territory, or scope of prohibited activities. This Agreement represents the entire understanding between Employee and the Company
on the matters addressed herein and supersedes any such prior agreements and may not be modified, changed or altered by any promise
or statement by the Company until such modification has been approved in writing and signed by both parties. The waiver by the
Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by any employee shall not be construed as a waiver of rights with respect
to any subsequent breach by Employee.


 


7.2             Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(“Section 409A”) or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and administered in accordance with Section 409A.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, payments provided under this Agreement may only be made upon an event and
in a manner that complies with Section 409A or an applicable exemption. Any payments under this Agreement that may be excluded
from Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service or as a short-term deferral shall be excluded
from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided under this Agreement
shall be treated as a separate payment. Any payments to be made under this Agreement upon a termination of employment shall only
be made upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations
that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A and in no event shall the Company be liable
for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Employee on account of non-compliance
with Section 409A.


 


7.3             Enforceability; Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims arising out of or related to
this Agreement, will be governed by, enforced under and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia without regard
to any conflicts or conflict of laws principles. The failure of either party at any time to require performance by another party
of any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of that party’s right to require future performance.

7.4             Entire Agreement. The provisions contained herein, and all provisions in documents
attached hereto and/or incorporated herein by reference, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to Employee’s
employment and supersede any and all prior agreements, understandings and communications between the parties, oral or written,
with respect to Employee’s employment.


 


7.5             Modification. No modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless in writing and signed
by Employee and the Company’s Chairman of the Board.


 


7.6             Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original. Exchange of signed agreements by electronic transmission will be sufficient to bind the parties. 


 


Article 8               Acknowledgement. By signing this Agreement, Employee acknowledges
that (a) Employee is not guaranteed employment for any definite duration and either Employee or the Company may terminate Employee’s
employment relationship with the Company at any time, for any reason, (b) Employee has carefully read and understands the provisions
of this Agreement and Employee was given the opportunity to consult with an attorney of Employee’s choosing prior to executing
this Agreement, and (c) except as set forth herein, no promises or inducements for this Agreement have been made, and Employee
is entering into the Agreement without reliance upon any statement or representation by the Company or its agents concerning any
material fact.


 


Executed,
this 23rd day of April
2020 at Atlanta,
Georgia.
