JACKSON PAYNE


EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT


  


This Employment Agreement
(this "Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between RIO BRAVO OILFIELD SERVICES, INC. a Texas corporation
("Company"), and JACKSON PAYNE, an individual residing in The Woodlands,, Texas ("Employee").


 


1.Introduction.
Company and Employee desire and have agreed that Employee will become an employee of the Company.


 


Based on such premise, on
the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, and for certain good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and adequacy of which hereby are acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:


 


2. Appointment and Term. The Company hereby employs
Employee, and Employee hereby accepts employment with the Company. Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall
commence July 1, 2014, and, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of Section 9 of this Agreement, shall continue for
an initial period of three (3) year(s) (as completed or earlier terminated pursuant to the express terms hereof, the
"Initial Period"). Following the completion of the Initial Period, unless there upon terminated or renewed
pursuant to the terms of this Section 2, Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall continue from year to year,
subject to earlier termination pursuant to the terms of Section 9 of this Agreement (each subsequent year, as completed or
earlier terminated, an "Additional Period," and together with the Initial Period, the
"Term"). Company may terminate this Agreement as of the last day of the Initial Period or any Additional
Period by giving Employee written notice of such termination not less than ninety (90) days prior to such date. Company may
elect to renew Employee’s employment by offering Employee a renewal employment agreement (the "Renewal
Agreement") not less than ninety (90) days prior to the last day of the Initial Period or any Additional Period (the
"Renewal Notice Period"), upon terms and conditions no less favorable to Employee than those set forth in
this Agreement (including, but not limited to, title; reporting relationship; services to be rendered; two (2) year minimum
term; termination, renewal, and severance provisions; scheduled base salary increases and annual bonus percentage; benefits;
etc.). The initial annual base salary specified in such Renewal Agreement shall be not less than Employee’s annual base
salary for the previous calendar year, adjusted to reflect the greater of (i) a five per cent (5%) increase in such annual
base salary, or (ii) the increase, if any, in the cost of living, determined by multiplying Employee’s then
current annual base salary by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Consumer Price Index (U.S. City Average--[1967 =
100%]- -All Items, Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor) (the "CPI") for the month
prior to the proposed commencement date of such Renewal Agreement and the denominator of which is the CPI for the month prior
to the month in which Employee’s annual base salary was most recently adjusted. Employee acknowledges and agrees that
Company has no obligation to allow this Agreement to renew, to offer Employee a Renewal Agreement, or to otherwise continue
Employee’s employment after expiration of the Initial Period or any Additional Period, and Employee expressly
acknowledges that no promises or understandings to the contrary have been made or reached. In the event Employee does not
accept an offered Renewal Agreement as of the last day of the Initial Period or Additional Period during which Employee first
received such Renewal Agreement, Employee shall be deemed to have rejected such Renewal Agreement and Employee’s
employment shall be terminated as of such date. In the event Company has not offered Employee a Renewal Agreement within the
Renewal Notice Period, Employee may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Company, provided
such termination notice is received by Company no less than thirty (30) days following the conclusion of the applicable
Renewal Notice Period, in which case the terms of Section 9.3 of this Agreement shall apply.


 


3. Duties and Responsibilities. Employee will serve as
Chief Financial Officer and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, and as such will perform those duties which are
normal and customary in the industry for like positions. Employee will be responsible for other similar areas which relate thereto

Chief Executive Officer or Board of Directors. Employee will report directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and
Board of Directors. Employee will perform full-time service on an exclusive basis for Company and its affiliates. Employee’s
principal base of employment shall initially be in the Houston, Texas area, and may change from time to time. Employee acknowledges

monthly. The Company shall review the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder on at least a quarterly basis.
Employee’s annual base salary will be adjusted on January 1 of each calendar year of the Term to reflect the greater of
(i) a five percent (5%) increase in such annual base salary, or (ii) the increase, if any, in the cost of living, determined
by multiplying Employee’s then current annual base salary by a fraction, the numerator of which is the CPI for the
month of December of the most recently completed calendar year and the denominator of which is the CPI for the month prior to
the month in which Employee’s annual base salary was most recently adjusted. In addition, the Company’s President
or Board of Directors of the Company may increase Employee’s annual base salary at such times as it, in its sole

first forty-five (45) days of each annual review period of the Term, Company, with Employee’s consultation, shall

be made quarterly in arrears, with the quarterly bonus to be paid no later than the 15th of the month following
the quarterly review period for which the quarterly bonus is calculated, with credit given for the payment of the Minimum
Guaranteed Bonus.
