compensation and benefits set forth below, Executive shall be reimbursed for any approved business-related expenses and shall receive vacation, sick leave, and other time off as is customary and usual for executives of Executive’s status in the
Company.

 (c) Benefits.

 5. Documents and Materials.
Executive shall not (except in the performance of Executive’s duties in the ordinary course of business for which Executive is employed by the Company) at any time or in any manner make or cause to be made any copies, or other
reproductions or recordings or any abstracts or summaries of any reports, studies, memoranda, correspondence, manuals, records, plans or other written, printed, computerized or otherwise recorded materials of any kind or nature whatsoever belonging
to or in the possession of the Company or any of its Affiliates. Immediately upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company or at any time upon the request of the Company, Executive shall surrender all such material to the
Company and execute a document acknowledging that Executive has complied with the provisions of this Agreement.

 6. Proprietary Information. Executive shall not at any time, whether during or after the
term of this Agreement, use for Executive’s own benefit or purposes or for the benefit or purposes of any other person or entity, or disclose (except in the performance of Executive’s duties in the ordinary course of business for which
Executive is employed by the Company) in any manner to any person or entity, any Proprietary Information. As used in this agreement, Proprietary Information shall mean trade secrets, information, data, know how or knowledge (including, but not
limited to, that relating to service techniques, purchasing and sales organization and methods, inventories, client lists, market development and expansion plans, personnel training and development programs and client and supplier relationships),
technology, developments, designs, techniques, inventions (whether or not patentable or reduced to practice), devices, or procedures, whether or not conceived of, created or developed, and/or first reduced to practice solely by Executive or jointly
by Executive and/or Company its employees, subcontractors or agents or any other Discoveries (as defined in Section 8) belonging to or relating to the affairs of the Company or any of its Affiliates or to the clients of the Company or any of
its Affiliates; provided, however, that this Section 6 shall not apply to any trade secret, information, data, know how, Discoveries or knowledge that is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault or action of Executive.

 7. Customers and Vendors. In furtherance of and not in limitation of Section 6, Executive acknowledges that the lists
of the Company’s and its Affiliates’ customers and vendors as they may exist from time to time constitute a valuable and unique asset of the Company, and Executive shall not, during or after the term of Executive’s employment,
disclose such lists or any part thereof to any person or entity for any reason whatsoever, nor shall Executive use such customer or vendor lists for Executive’s own benefit or purposes or for the benefit or purposes of any business with whom
Executive may become associated. 
 8. Discoveries. Any and all inventions, discoveries, improvements, designs, methods,
systems, developments, know how, ideas, suggestions, devices, trade secrets and processes (collectively, “Discoveries”), whether patentable or not, which are discovered, disclosed to or otherwise obtained by Executive during
Executive’s employment with the Company, are confidential, proprietary information and are the sole and absolute property of the Company. Executive shall immediately disclose and hereby assigns to the Company all such Discoveries and shall
assist the Company in making any application in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions for patents of any kind with respect thereto. Whenever requested to do so by the Company, Executive shall execute any and all applications, assignments,
or other instruments that the Company may deem necessary to protect the Company’s interest therein. Notwithstanding the fact that the Company may request additional assignment and assistance in applications, the assignments made in this
Section 8 are adequate to cause an assignment of Executive’s interest in any Discoveries. 
 9. Works for Hire. All
works and writings of a professional nature that are produced by Executive during Executive’s employment with the Company constitute works made for hire and are the sole and absolute property of the Company. Executive grants the Company the
exclusive right to copyright all such works and writings in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions. To the extent any such works or writings are deemed to not be works for hire, Executive hereby assigns all of Executive’s interests
therein to the Company or its nominee. Whenever requested to do so by the Company, Executive shall execute any and all applications, assignments, or other instruments that the Company may deem necessary to protect the Company’s interest
therein. Notwithstanding the fact 

  

 3 








 
that the Company may request additional assignments and assistances in applications, the assignments made in this Section 9 are deemed to be adequate to
cause an assignment of Executive’s interest in works or writings. 
 10. Non-Disclosure Agreement. The parties acknowledge
entering into a separate non-disclosure agreement relating to the Company’s proprietary information, attached as Exhibit A (“Non-Disclosure Agreement”). The terms of the Non-Disclosure Agreement are incorporated herein
by this reference. In the event of a conflict between the Non-Disclosure Agreement and this Agreement, the terms providing greater protection to the Company and its proprietary information shall be determinative. 
 11. Non-Competition. 
 (a)
Corporate Relationship. Executive acknowledges (i) that Executive’s employment as a member of the Company’s executive management team creates a relationship of confidence and trust between Executive and the Company with
respect to confidential and proprietary information applicable to the business of the Company, its Affiliates and its clients, and (ii) the highly competitive nature of the business of the Company. Accordingly, the Company and Executive agree
that the restrictions contained in this Section 11 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the immediate interests of the Company and that any violation of these restrictions would cause substantial injury to the Company. 

(b) Competitive Business Defined. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competitive Business” means business which is
similar to or competitive with the business of the Company with respect to which Executive has had direct responsibility. 
 (c)
Existing Client Defined. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Existing Client” means a client for whom the Company or any of its Affiliates is performing services or marketing products as of the date of the termination
of Executive’s employment with the Company or for whom the Company or any of its Affiliates performed services or marketed products within the two-year period immediately preceding the termination of Executive’s employment with the
Company. 
 (d) Noncompetition. During Executive’s employment with the Company and for a period of one (1) year
following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason (other than termination by Executive for Good Reason during the first twelve (12) months of Executive’s employment), Executive shall not: 

i. own, manage, operate, control, have any financial interest in, or lend Executive’s name to any person or entity engaged in, a
Competitive Business or cause others to or assist others in engaging in any Competitive Business in the foregoing manner; 
 ii. employ or otherwise engage, or attempt to employ or otherwise engage, in or on behalf of Executive or any Competitive Business, any person who is employed or engaged as an employee, consultant, agent or representative of the Company or
any of its Affiliates as of the date of Executive’s termination or at any time during the one-year period following such termination; or 
  

 4 








 iii. solicit directly or indirectly on behalf of Executive or any Competitive Business,
the customer business or account of any Existing Client. 
 (e) Specific Enforcement. The foregoing covenants shall be
specifically enforceable; provided, however, that the covenants shall not be construed to prohibit ownership of not more than 5% of the equity of any publicly held entity engaged in direct competition with the Company, so long as the Executive is
not otherwise engaged with such entity in any of the other activities specified in the foregoing clauses. 
 (f) Severability.
If any court shall determine that any provision of this Section 11 is unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, such covenant will be considered to be divisible with respect to scope, time, and geographic area, and such lesser
scope, time, or geographic area, or all of them, as a court of competent jurisdiction may determine to be reasonable, not arbitrary, and not against public policy, will be effective, binding, and enforceable against Executive. 
 (g) Employability. Executive acknowledges (i) that Executive has sufficient abilities and talents to be able to obtain, upon the
termination of Executive’s employment, comparable employment from another business while fully honoring and complying with the above covenants concerning confidential information and contacts with the Company’s or any of its
Affiliates’ customers or employees, and (ii) the importance to the Company and its Affiliates of the above covenants. Accordingly, for a period of one (1) year following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company
and upon the Company’s reasonable request of Executive, Executive shall advise the Company of the identity of Executive’s new employer and shall provide a general description, in reasonable detail, of Executive’s new duties and
responsibilities sufficient to inform the Company of its need to request a court order to enforce the above covenants. 
 (h) Remedies.
The parties acknowledge that the damages sustained by the Company or its Affiliates as a result of a breach of the agreements contained herein will subject the Company or its Affiliates to immediate, irreparable harm and damage, the amount
of which, although substantial, cannot be reasonably ascertained, and that recovery of damages at law will not be an adequate remedy. Executive therefore agrees that the Company and its Affiliates, in addition to any other remedy they may have under
this Agreement or at law, shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or curtail arty breach of any provision of this Agreement. If an action is instituted to enforce this Agreement or any of the terms and conditions
hereof, including, but not limited to, suit for preliminary injunction, the prevailing party shall be entitled to costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Executive waives any right to the posting of a bond in the event of an issuance of a
temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or permanent injunction upon the issuance of said order by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 12. Disability. The Company may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Executive if Executive is physically or mentally incapacitated and unable to perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement for a period of
(i) any 180 days out of any 360 days, if the Common Stock of the Company is not then publicly traded, or (ii) 90 out of any 180 days if the Common Stock of the Company is then publicly traded. If at any time a question arises as to the
incapacity of Executive, then the Company shall promptly employ one physician who is a member of the American Medical Association and who is reasonably acceptable to Executive to examine Executive and determine if Executive’s physical or mental
condition is such as to render Executive unable to perform Executive’s 

  

 5 








 
duties under this Agreement. The decision of the physician shall be certified in writing to the Company, shall be sent by the Company to Executive or
Executive’s representative and shall be conclusive for purposes of this Agreement. Any compensation payments payable to Executive hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any disability payments Executive receives as a result of disability
policies on which the Company has paid the premiums. 
 13. Death During Employment. This Agreement shall terminate upon
Executive’s death, and the Company shall pay a death benefit equal to Executive’s base monthly salary for the balance of the month of Executive’s death and for three months following Executive’s death. Such amounts shall be paid
to the beneficiary named in writing by Executive, or if none, to Executive’s surviving spouse, or if none, to the executors and administrators of Executive’s estate and shall be paid within 60 days after Executive’s death. 

14. Termination for Other Than for Disability or Death. 
 (a) By the Corporation. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any renewal term as follows: 
 i. without Cause, upon 90 days’ written notice to Executive; or 
 ii. upon 30 days’ written notice to Executive if Underperformance occurs; or 
 iii. immediately upon the showing of Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (a) Executive’s breach
of this Agreement, if the Executive has been given a reasonable opportunity to cure his breach (which reasonable opportunity must be granted during the fourteen (14)-day period preceding termination of this Agreement); (b) Executive’s
failure to adhere to any written Company policy if the Executive has been given a reasonable opportunity to comply with such policy or cure his failure to comply (which reasonable opportunity must be granted during the fourteen (14)-day period
preceding termination of this Agreement); (c) misrepresentation or concealment of a material fact for the purpose of securing or maintaining employment with the Company; (d) the appropriation (or attempted appropriation) of a material
business opportunity of the Company, including attempting to secure or securing any personal profit in connection with any transaction entered into on behalf of the Company; (e) the misappropriation (or attempted misappropriation) of any of the
Company’s funds or property; (f) the conviction of, the indictment for (or its procedural equivalent), or the entering of a guilty plea or plea of no contest with respect to, violation of a securities law or a felony, the equivalent
thereof, or any other crime with respect to which imprisonment is a possible punishment; (g) violation of the policies of the Company with respect to non-discrimination, sexual harassment, or similar policies affecting workers and the
workplace; or (h) a breach of Sections 6 through 11 of this Agreement. 
 (b) By Executive. Executive may terminate
Executive’s employment under this Agreement upon 30 days’ written notice to the Company. An Executive’s termination shall be deemed for “Good Reason” if such termination is due to: (i) a change materially adverse to
Executive in the nature of scope of Executive’s position, status, responsibilities or duties with the Company as they existed as of the Effective Date (other than for Underperformance), (ii) a material reduction by the 

  

 6 








 
Company in Executive’s base salary as in effect on the Effective Date or as the same may be increased from time to time, other than pursuant to an
across the board reduction of an equal or greater percentage affecting all of the Company’s executive officers or due to Underperformance; or (iii) a change, exceeding a fifty-mile radius, in Executive’s principal work location
established on the Effective Date, except for required travel on the Company’s business to an extent substantially consistent with business travel obligations of the other officers of the Company. 
 (c) Termination Obligations. Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall have no further obligation
to Executive except as specifically provided under this Agreement; provided, however, that termination of Executive’s employment shall not affect Executive’s right to receive any compensation or bonuses which have accrued but have not been
paid through the date of termination. Executive shall return to the Company any and all equipment including, without limitation, electronic equipment, keys, credit cards, and the like, owned by the Company and used by Executive. 
 (d) Severance. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company under this Section 14 prior to the expiration of
the Initial Term (A) by the Company for reasons other than Cause or Underperformance, or (B) by Executive for Good Reason, the Company shall pay Executive a severance benefit equal to 50% of the annual base salary Executive would have
received if Executive had remained in the employ of the Company through the end of the Initial Term, but no other Benefit. Any such payment due to Executive shall be paid in cash or by check on the same dates on which Executive would otherwise have
received payment of Executive’s annual base salary hereunder if employment had continued. 
 (e) Withholding Tax. The
Company shall be entitled to withhold from any compensatory payments that it makes to Executive under this Agreement or otherwise an amount sufficient to satisfy all Federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements with
respect to any and all compensation paid to Executive by the Company. 
 15. No Conflicting Agreements. Executive represents
and warrants that he is not a party to any agreement, contract or understanding, whether employment or otherwise which would in any way restrict or prohibit him from undertaking or performing employment in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement. 
 16. Arbitration. Except for (i) any claim for unemployment compensation or workers’ compensation,
and (ii) any relief sought for breach by Executive of Sections 6-11 and or under Section 20 of this Agreement, in which case a claim may be brought before any court in the State of Florida having jurisdiction over the matter, any
controversy or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration in Florida under the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time such
controversy or claim arises (the “Rules”) by one arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with the Rules, the arbitrator also apportioning the costs of arbitration. The award of the arbitrator shall be in
writing, shall be final and binding upon the parties, shall not be appealed from or contested in any court and may, in appropriate circumstances, include injunctive relief. Should a party fail to appear or be represented at the arbitration
proceedings after due notice in accordance with the Rules, then the arbitrator may nevertheless render a decision in the absence of such party, and such decision shall have the same force and effect as if the absent party had been present, whether
or not it 

  

 7 








 
shall be adverse to the interests of such party. Any award rendered hereunder may be entered for enforcement, if necessary, in any court of competent
jurisdiction, and the party against whom enforcement is sought shall bear the expenses, including attorneys’ fees, of enforcement. 
 17. Survival. The covenants contained in this Agreement shall survive any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company and any termination of this Agreement. The existence of any claim or cause of action of
Executive against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement. 
 18. Severability. If the scope of any restriction contained in this Agreement is too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction to its
fullest extent, then such restriction shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and Executive and the Company hereby consent and agree that the scope of such restriction may be judicially modified in any proceeding brought to enforce
such restriction. To the extent any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable, it shall be considered deleted from this Agreement and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 19. Notice. Any notices required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and delivered by personal
delivery, air courier, or if mailed by registered or certified first-class mail, return receipt requested, to the residence of Executive as it appears in the corporate records for notice to Executive, or to the principal office of the Company for
notice to the Company. All notices delivered in accordance with this Section shall be deemed to have been received and shall be deemed effective if delivered in person or by air courier, upon actual receipt by the intended recipient, or if mailed,
upon the date of delivery or refusal to accept delivery as shown by the return receipt therefor. 
 20. Affiliate. An
“Affiliate” means any person or entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with another. Control shall mean beneficial ownership of 50.01% or more of the outstanding voting securities or other
ownership interests. 
 21. No Waiver. No term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived, nor shall
there be any estoppel to enforce any provision of this Agreement, except by a statement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver or estoppel is sought. Any written waiver shall not be deemed a continuing waiver unless
specifically stated, and shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 
 22. Amendments. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be deemed effective unless made in writing and signed by the parties
hereto. 
 23. Assignment. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall, without the prior written
consent of Executive, inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. This is a personal service contract and may not be assigned by Executive. 
  

 8 








 24. Governing Law. This Agreement is made under and shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida. By execution of this Agreement, each party submits to in personam jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Florida. 
 25. Headings. The headings of sections in this Agreement are solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the
meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. 
 26. Counterparts and Facsimile Signatures. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Any counterpart may be delivered by any party by transmission of signature pages to
the other parties at the addresses set forth herein, and delivery shall be effective and complete upon completion of such transmission; manually signed copies of signature pages shall nonetheless be delivered promptly after any such facsimile
delivery.

behalf of and for the benefit of Company (the “Limited Purpose”). 
 B. To facilitate the disclosure of certain Confidential
Information (as defined below) by Company to Recipient, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement. 
 AGREEMENT 
 Now therefore, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by reference, and the mutual
covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions. In addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: 

(a) “Confidential Information” mean any information, whether written, oral, magnetic, photographic, optical, or other
form, tangible or intangible, which has been, or after the date hereof will be, furnished or disclosed by Company, or its employees, consultants, representatives or agents, or which Recipient may have access to in connection with the Limited
Purpose, which has been designated as being confidential, or which under the circumstances of disclosure reasonably ought to be treated as confidential, including but not limited to any information pertaining to or regarding the business, financial
condition, pricing, sales, strategies, plans, customers, suppliers, properties and operations of Company (including such information visually available to Recipient at Company’s premises or Company presentations), and including without
limitation all technical information of any nature whatsoever and all business plans, inventions, trade secrets, know-how, methodologies, concepts, techniques, discoveries, computer programs (including functionality and source code), processes,
drawings, designs, research, plans or specifications relating thereto. 
 (b) “Related Party” or
“Related Parties” shall mean the directors, officers, employees, legal, tax and other professional advisors or consultants of Recipient, to the extent such entities or persons receive Confidential Information. 
 2. Non-Disclosure and Restricted Use of Confidential Information. 
 (a) Recipient shall keep in strictest confidence and trust all Confidential Information and, except upon the express prior written consent
of Company, Recipient shall (i) not disclose any Confidential Information to any other entity or person, and (ii) use the Confidential Information solely as necessary to implement the Limited Purpose and not for Recipient’s own
benefit or for the benefit of any other entity or person. Recipient shall take all reasonable safeguards to prevent the disclosure or misuse of the Confidential Information, including without limitation such measures as the Recipient takes to
safeguard its own confidential information, and shall not photocopy, transcribe or otherwise reproduce or modify any of the Confidential Information except as necessary to implement the Limited Purpose or otherwise upon the express written consent
of the Company. 
  

 10 








 (b) Recipient may disclose the Confidential Information to Related Parties on a
“need to know” basis only. Recipient shall inform all Related Parties who have access to the Confidential Information that such Confidential Information is confidential and proprietary to Company and shall require each such Related Party
to agree to restrictions and obligations at least as strict as those set forth herein prior to disclosure of any Confidential Information. Recipient shall diligently enforce any and all confidentiality agreements with Related Parties and shall be
responsible and liable for any breach of the confidentiality obligations and restrictions on use set forth herein by any Related Party. 
 (c) The obligations of Recipient stated in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2 shall not apply to information that (i) is or becomes generally known or available to the public through no wrongful act
of the Recipient; (ii) was in the Recipient's possession at the time of disclosure or receipt, as evidenced and verified by prior tangible evidence, and was not acquired under an obligation of confidence; (iii) Recipient demonstrates was
rightfully received by it from a third party after the time it was disclosed or obtained hereunder, provided that such third party was not under an obligation of confidence with the Company at the time of the third party’s disclosure to
Recipient; (iv) is independently developed by Recipient without use of or reference to the Confidential Information and without breach of this Agreement, as evidenced and verified by prior tangible evidence; or (v) is required to be
disclosed in a judicial or administrative proceeding, or as otherwise required to be disclosed by law, in any such case after all reasonable legal remedies for maintaining such information in confidence have been exhausted, including, but not
limited to, giving Company as much advance notice of the possibility of such disclosure as practical so Company may attempt to stop such disclosure or obtain a protective order concerning such disclosure. Recipient shall provide Company with written
notice no less than five (5) days prior to the disclosure or use of any information of Company pursuant to this Section 2(c), subsections (i) through (v). 
 (d) Recipient shall (i) notify Company immediately of any unauthorized possession, use or knowledge of the Confidential Information,
(ii) promptly furnish Company full details of such possession, use or knowledge, and (iii) cooperate with Company against third parties as may be deemed necessary by Company to protect its proprietary rights in the Confidential
Information. 
 3. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date of first disclosure of Confidential Information
and may be terminated, without cause, with respect to future disclosures upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other party; provided however, that all rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the nondisclosure obligations and restrictions on use with respect to any Confidential Information shall continue and bind Recipient for a period of five (5) years
after the date of the last disclosure of Confidential Information hereunder, except that the nondisclosure obligations and restrictions on use with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret shall continue in effect for
so long as the Confidential Information remains a trade secret under applicable law. Any termination or expiration of this Agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights of Company against Recipient in respect of any claim or breach of any of
the provisions of this Agreement. 
 4. Return of Confidential Information. Recipient shall return to Company, or at Company’s
request, destroy, and shall cause its Related Parties to return or destroy, the Confidential Information and all copies, transcriptions or other reproductions of, and any notes relating to, the Confidential Information, including without limitation,
any memoranda, photocopies, computer files and libraries, computer-generated data or other similar repositories or archives, upon (i) the accomplishment of the purpose for which the Confidential Information was provided, or (ii) receipt of
a written notice from Company requesting return or destruction of the Confidential Information, and upon request, shall provide to Company written certification signed by an officer of Recipient that it has complied with the foregoing. 

5. Ownership. 
 (a)
All Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of Company. By disclosing Confidential Information to Recipient, Company does not grant any express or implied right to Recipient to or under any patents, copyrights, trademarks, or trade
secret information except as 

  

 11 








 
required to implement the Limited Purpose. Company reserves without prejudice the ability to protect its rights under any such patents, copyrights,
trademarks, or trade secrets. Recipient shall not remove any proprietary, copyright, trade secret or other legend from any form of the Confidential Information. Recipient shall, at the reasonable written request of Company and at Company’s
expense, add to the Confidential Information any proprietary, copyright, trade secret or other legend or modify the same, which Company deems necessary to protect its intellectual property rights. Without limiting the foregoing, Company shall retain
all right, title, and interest in and to all forms of Confidential Information delivered or disclosed hereunder, including, without limitation, any patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade dress, logos, technical information, know-how,
trade secrets, and any modifications or enhancements thereto (whether developed by Company, Recipient, any Related Party, or on either party’s behalf) or other intellectual property rights throughout the world, whether currently existing or
hereafter developed or acquired, and all applications, disclosures and registrations with respect thereto (collectively, “IP Rights”). If Recipient or any third party engaged by Recipient is deemed to have any ownership interest or
rights in any IP Rights in the Confidential Information, then Recipient, for no additional consideration, shall assign and/or cause such third party to assign, and Recipient does hereby assign, all of such ownership interest and rights exclusively
and irrevocably to Company. Recipient shall cooperate with Company and shall cause to be executed all such instruments and documents as Company reasonably may request in connection with such assignments and shall do all other lawfully permitted acts
reasonably required to further the intent of this Section 5; provided, however, this Agreement shall be effective regardless of whether any such additional documents are executed. Recipient shall not dispute or contest, directly or indirectly,
Company’s right, title and interest in or to, or the validity and enforceability of, any IP Rights in the Confidential Information (including the attempt to register or record the same in any jurisdiction). Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, this Section 5 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. 
 (b) Recipient may from
time to time provide suggestions, comments or other feedback (“Feedback”) to Company with respect to the Confidential Information. Both parties agree that all Feedback is and shall be given entirely voluntarily. Recipient shall not
give Feedback that is subject to license terms that seek to require any Company product, technology, service or documentation incorporating or derived from such Feedback, or any Company intellectual property, to be licensed or otherwise shared with
any third party. Recipient hereby acknowledges and agrees that all Feedback shall be deemed Confidential Information of Company, subject to the obligations of confidentiality and restricted use provided under this Agreement. Furthermore, Recipient
hereby acknowledges and agrees that Company shall have the exclusive right to use, disclose, reproduce, license or otherwise distribute, and exploit the Feedback as Company sees fit, entirely without obligation or restriction of any kind on account
of intellectual property rights or otherwise. 
 6. Accuracy and Completeness of Confidential Information. The disclosure of any
Confidential Information to Recipient shall be solely in Company’s discretion. This Agreement shall not require Company to disclose any information or to require the consummation of any transaction in connection with which the Confidential
Information is disclosed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Company shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty to Recipient concerning the accuracy or completeness of any Confidential Information, except to the extent
that such representation or warranty may be expressly set forth in a definitive written agreement concerning any subsequent business relationship. 
 7. Independent Contractors. Neither this Agreement, nor any terms and conditions contained herein, will be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship or as granting a franchise. The parties are
independent contractors each acting for its own account, and neither is authorized to make any commitment or representation, express or implied, on the other’s behalf. 
 8. Remedies. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that Company would be irreparably harmed if any of the Confidential Information were to be
disclosed to third parties, or if any use were to be made of the Confidential Information other than that specified in this Agreement, and further agrees that Company shall have the right to seek and obtain injunctive relief upon any violation or
threatened violation of the terms of this Agreement

secrets of the Company will be entitled to all of the protections and benefits under the applicable Uniform Trade Secrets Act and any other applicable law. If any information that Company deems to be a trade secret is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction not to be a trade secret for purposes of this Agreement, such information nevertheless will be considered Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement. Recipient hereby waives any requirement that the Company submit proof of
the economic value of any trade secret. 
 9. Indemnity. Recipient shall indemnify Company for and against all damages, losses,
claims, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), expenses and liabilities, suffered or incurred as a direct or indirect result of Recipient failing (whether intentionally or not) to fully comply with its covenants and obligations under

 14. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, other than such laws,

necessary to effectuate the parties’ intentions and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
