&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell to the several Underwriters, an aggregate of [__] authorized but unissued shares (the "**Firm Shares**" or "**Firm Securities**") of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "**Common Stock**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agree to purchase from the Company the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names on <u>Schedule 1</u> attached hereto and made a part hereof, at a purchase price of $[__] per Firm Share ([__]% of the public offering price for each Firm Share).

The hour and date of delivery and payment for the Firm Securities is called the "**Closing Date**."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Payment for the Firm Securities shall be made on the Closing Date by wire transfer in Federal (same day) funds, payable to the order of the Company upon delivery of the certificates (in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters) representing the Firm Securities (or through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company ("**DTC**")) for the account of the Underwriters.

To the Company's knowledge, all material technical information developed by and belonging to the Company which has not been patented has been kept confidential. The Company is not a party to or bound by any options, licenses or agreements with respect to the Intellectual Property Rights of any other person or entity that are required to be set forth in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus and are not described therein.

Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has paid all taxes (as hereinafter defined) shown as due on such returns that were filed and has paid all taxes imposed on or assessed against the Company or such respective Subsidiary except those that are being contested in good faith or as would not have, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change. The provisions for taxes payable, if any, shown on the financial statements filed with or as part of the Registration Statement are sufficient for all accrued and unpaid taxes, whether or not disputed, and for all periods to and including the dates of such consolidated financial statements. Except as disclosed in writing to the Underwriters, (i) no material issues have been raised (and are currently pending) by any taxing authority in connection with any of the returns or taxes asserted as due from the Company or its Subsidiaries, and (ii) no waivers of statutes of limitation with respect to the returns or collection of taxes have been given by or requested from the Company or its Subsidiaries.

No "reportable event" (as defined under ERISA) has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any "employee benefit plan" established or maintained by the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates. No "employee benefit plan" established or maintained by the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates, if such "employee benefit plan" were terminated, would have any "amount of unfunded benefit liabilities" (as defined under ERISA). Neither the Company nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any material liability under (i) Title IV of ERISA with respect to termination of, or withdrawal from, any "employee benefit plan" or (ii) Sections 412, 4971, 4975 or 4980B of the Code. Each "employee benefit plan" established or maintained by the Company or any of its ERISA Affiliates that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and, to the knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred, whether by action or failure to act, which would cause the loss of such qualification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.36. Compliance with Laws.** Each of the Company and each Subsidiary: (A) is and at all times has been in compliance with all statutes, rules, or regulations applicable to the business of the Company as currently conducted ("**Applicable Laws**"), except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change; (B) has not received any warning letter, untitled letter or other correspondence or notice from any Governmental Entity alleging or asserting noncompliance with any Applicable Laws or any Authorizations; (C) possesses all Authorizations and such Authorizations are valid and in full force and effect and are not in violation of any term of any such Authorizations, except where the invalidity of such Authorizations or the failure of such Authorizations to be in full force and effect would not result in a Material Adverse Change; (D) has not received notice of any claim, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, enforcement, investigation, arbitration or other action from any Governmental Entity or third party alleging that any activity conducted by the Company is in violation of any Applicable Laws or Authorizations and has no knowledge that any such Governmental Entity or third party is considering any such claim, litigation, arbitration, action, suit, investigation or proceeding; (E) has not received notice that any Governmental Entity has taken, is taking or intends to take action to limit, suspend, modify or revoke any Authorizations and has no knowledge that any such Governmental Entity is considering such action; and (F) has filed, obtained, maintained or submitted all reports, documents, forms, notices, applications, records, claims, submissions and supplements or amendments as required by any Applicable Laws or Authorizations and that all such reports, documents, forms, notices, applications, records, claims, submissions and supplements or amendments were complete and correct on the date filed (or were corrected or supplemented by a subsequent submission), except where the failure to be so in compliance would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.37. Reserved.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.38.

There has been no storage, generation, transportation, handling, treatment, disposal, discharge, emission, or other release of any kind of toxic or other wastes or other hazardous substances by, due to, or caused by the Company (or, to the Company's knowledge, any other entity for whose acts or omissions the Company is or may otherwise be liable) upon any of the property now or previously owned or leased by the Company, or upon any other property, in violation of any law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or permit or which would, under any law, statute, ordinance, rule (including rule of common law), regulation, order, judgment, decree or permit, give rise to any liability, except for any violation or liability which would not have, singularly or in the aggregate with all such violations and liabilities, a Material Adverse Change; and there has been no disposal, discharge, emission or other release of any kind onto such property or into the environment surrounding such property of any toxic or other wastes or other hazardous substances with respect to which the Company has knowledge, except for any such disposal, discharge, emission, or other release of any kind which would not have, singularly or in the aggregate with all such discharges and other releases, a Material Adverse Change. In the ordinary course of business, the Company conducts periodic reviews of the effect of Environmental Laws on its business and assets, in the course of which they identify and evaluate associated costs and liabilities (including, without limitation, any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up, closure of properties or compliance with Environmental Laws or governmental permits issued thereunder, any related constraints on operating activities and any potential liabilities to third parties). On the basis of such reviews, the Company has reasonably concluded that such associated costs and liabilities would not have, singularly or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.39. Title to Property.** Except as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus, the Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to, or have valid rights to lease or otherwise use, all items of real or personal property which are material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, claims and defects that do not, singly or in the aggregate, materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company or its Subsidiaries; and all of the leases and subleases material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise, and under which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries holds properties described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, and the Prospectus, are in full force and effect, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of any material claim of any sort that has been asserted by anyone adverse to the rights of the Company or any Subsidiary under any of the leases or subleases mentioned above, or affecting or questioning the rights of the Company or any Subsidiary to the continued possession of the leased or subleased premises under any such lease or sublease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.40.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.41. Loans to Directors or Officers.** There are no outstanding loans, advances (except normal advances for business expenses in the ordinary course of business) or guarantees or indebtedness by the Company or its Subsidiaries to or for the benefit of any of the officers or directors of the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective family members, except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.47. Dividends and Distributions.** Except as disclosed in the Pricing Disclosure Package, Registration Statement, and the Prospectus, no Subsidiary of the Company is currently prohibited or restricted, directly or indirectly, from paying any dividends to the Company, from making any other distribution on such Subsidiary's capital stock (to the extent that any such prohibition or restriction on dividends and/or distributions would have a material effect to the Company), from repaying to the Company any loans or advances to such Subsidiary from the Company or from transferring any of such Subsidiary's property or assets to the Company or any other Subsidiary of the Company, except as may otherwise be provided in current loan or mortgage-related documents.

The Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representative, it shall not make any offer relating to the Public Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a "free writing prospectus," or a portion thereof, required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433; provided that the Representative shall be deemed to have consented to each Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus set forth in <u>Schedule 2-B</u>.

No Material Misstatement or Omission.** The Underwriters shall not have discovered and disclosed to the Company on or prior to the Closing Date and any Option Closing Date that the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto contains an untrue statement of a fact which, in the opinion of Representative Counsel, is material or omits to state any fact which, in the opinion of such counsel, is material and is required to be stated therein or is necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or that the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto contains an untrue statement of fact which, in the opinion of Representative Counsel, is material or omits to state any fact which, in the opinion of Representative Counsel, is material and is necessary in order to make the statements, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.7. Corporate Proceedings.** All corporate proceedings and other legal matters incident to the authorization, form and validity of each of this Agreement, the Public Securities, the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, and the Prospectus and all other legal matters relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be reasonably satisfactory in all material respects to Representative Counsel, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel all documents and information that they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.8. Lock-Up Agreements.** On or before the date of this Agreement, the Company shall have delivered to the Representative executed copies of the Lock-Up Agreements from each of the persons listed in <u>Schedule 3</u> hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.9. Omitted.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.10. Additional Documents.** At the Closing Date and at each Option Closing Date (if any) Representative Counsel shall have been furnished with such documents and opinions as they may require for the purpose of enabling Representative Counsel to deliver an opinion to the Underwriters, or in order to evidence the accuracy of any of the representations or warranties, or the fulfillment of any of the conditions, herein contained; and all proceedings taken by the Company in connection with the issuance and sale of the Public Securities and Representative's Securities as herein contemplated shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Representative and Representative Counsel.

**5. INDEMNIFICATION.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1. Indemnification of the Underwriters.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1.1. <u>General</u>. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates and each of its and their respective directors, officers, members, employees, representatives, partners, shareholders, affiliates, counsel and agents and each person, if any, who controls any such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively the "**Underwriter Indemnified Parties**," and each an "**Underwriter Indemnified Party**"), against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including but not limited to any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, whether arising out of any action between any of the Underwriter Indemnified Parties and the Company or between any of the Underwriter Indemnified Parties and any third party, or otherwise) to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise or under the laws of foreign countries, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the Offering, including any "road show" or investor presentations made to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically); or (iii) any application or other document or written communication (in this Section 5, collectively called "**application**") executed by the Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Public Securities under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission, any state securities commission or agency, the Exchange or any other national securities exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, unless such statement or omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, the Underwriters' Information. With respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.1.1 shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter Indemnified Party to the extent that any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense of such Underwriter Indemnified Party (a) is based on the Underwriters' Information, (b) results from the fact that a copy of the Prospectus was not given or sent to the person asserting any such loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the written confirmation of sale of the Public Securities to such person as required by the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations, and if the untrue statement or omission has been corrected in the Prospectus, unless such failure to deliver the Prospectus was a result of non-compliance by the Company with its obligations under Section 3.3 hereof, or (c) is found in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Underwriter Indemnified Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1.2. <u>Procedure</u>. If any action is brought against an Underwriter Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Company pursuant to Section 5.1.1, such Underwriter Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the institution of such action and the Company shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense of such action, including the employment and fees of counsel (subject to the reasonable approval of such Underwriter Indemnified Party) and payment of actual expenses. Such Underwriter Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Underwriter Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment of such counsel at the expense of the Company shall have been authorized in writing by the Company in connection with the defense of such action, or (ii) the Company shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such action, or (iii) the action includes both the Company and the indemnified party as defendants and such indemnified party or parties shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to those available to the Company which makes it impossible or inadvisable for the Company and such indemnified party to be represented in the action by the same counsel (in which case the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), in any of which events the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one additional firm of attorneys selected by the Underwriter Indemnified Parties who are party to such action (in addition to local counsel) shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any Underwriter Indemnified Party shall assume the defense of such action as provided above, the Company shall have the right to approve the terms of any settlement of such action, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.2. Indemnification of the Company.** Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and persons who control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the several Underwriters, as incurred, but only with respect to such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) which arise out of or are based upon untrue statements or omissions made in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Disclosure Package or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or in any application, in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, the Underwriters' Information. In case any action shall be brought against the Company or any other person so indemnified based on any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any application, and in respect of which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company, and the Company and each other person so indemnified shall have the rights and duties given to the several Underwriters by the provisions of Section 5.1.2. The Company agrees promptly to notify the Representative of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or any person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, in connection with the issuance and sale of the Public Securities or in connection with the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.3. Contribution.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3.1. <u>Contribution Rights</u>. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 5.1 or 5.2 in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and each of the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the Offering, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to such Offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discount and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Underwriters, on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement, omission, act or failure to act; provided that the parties hereto agree that the written information furnished to the Company through the Representative by or on behalf of any Underwriter for use in any Preliminary Prospectus, any Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, consists solely of the Underwriters' Information. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 5.3.1 were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding referred to above in this Section 5.3.1 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 5.3.1, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.3.1 no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total discount and commission received by such Underwriter in connection with the Offering less the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise paid or becomes liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission, act or alleged act or failure to act or alleged failure to act. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3.2. <u>Contribution Procedure</u>. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt by any party to this Agreement (or its representative) of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, such party will, if a claim for contribution in respect thereof is to be made against another party ("contributing party"), notify the contributing party of the commencement thereof, but the failure to so notify the contributing party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any other party other than for contribution hereunder. In case any such action, suit or proceeding is brought against any party, and such party notifies a contributing party or its representative of the commencement thereof within the aforesaid 15 days, the contributing party will be entitled to participate therein with the notifying party and any other contributing party similarly notified. Any such contributing party shall not be liable to any party seeking contribution on account of any settlement of any claim, action or proceeding affected by such party seeking contribution without the written consent of such contributing party. The contribution provisions contained in this Section 5.3.2 are intended to supersede, to the extent permitted by law, any right to contribution under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise available. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 5.3 are several and in proportion to their respective underwriting obligation, and not joint.

**6. DEFAULT BY AN UNDERWRITER.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.1. Default Not Exceeding 10% of Firm Securities or Option Securities.** If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligations to purchase the Firm Securities or the Option Securities, if the Over-allotment Option is exercised hereunder, and if the number of the Firm Securities or Option Securities with respect to which such default relates does not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the number of Firm Shares and accompanying Option Shares that all Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Securities or Option Securities to which the default relates shall be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.2. Default Exceeding 10% of Firm Securities or Option Securities.** In the event that the default addressed in Section 6.1 relates to more than 10% of the number of Firm Shares and accompanying Option Shares, the Representative may in its discretion arrange for itself or for another party or parties to purchase such Firm Securities or Option Securities to which such default relates on the terms contained herein. If, within one (1) Business Day after such default relating to more than 10% of the number of Firm Shares and accompanying Option Shares, the Representative does not arrange for the purchase of such Firm Securities or Option Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of one (1) Business Day within which to procure another party or parties satisfactory to the Representative to purchase said Firm Securities or Option Securities on such terms. In the event that neither the Representative nor the Company arrange for the purchase of the Firm Securities or Option Securities to which a default relates as provided in this Section 6, this Agreement will automatically be terminated by the Representative or the Company without liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.10 and 5 hereof) or the several Underwriters (except as provided in Section 5 hereof); provided, however, that if such default occurs with respect to the Option Securities, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Securities; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the other Underwriters and to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.3. Postponement of Closing Date.** In the event that the Firm Securities or Option Securities to which the default relates are to be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters, or are to be purchased by another party or parties as aforesaid, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date or Option Closing Date for a reasonable period, but not in any event exceeding five (5) Business Days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents and arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment to the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Prospectus that in the opinion of Representative Counsel may thereby be made necessary. The term "**Underwriter**" as used in this Agreement shall include any party substituted under this Section 6 with like effect as if it had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Firm Securities or Option Securities.

**7. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**7.1. Prohibition on Press Releases and Public Announcements.** The Company shall not issue press releases or engage in any other publicity, without the Representative's prior written consent, for a period ending at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the first (1<sup>st</sup>) Business Day following the fortieth (40<sup>th</sup>) day after the Closing Date, other than normal and customary releases issued in the ordinary course of the Company's business.

**8. EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION THEREOF.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.1. Effective Date.** This Agreement shall become effective when both the Company and the Representative have executed the same and delivered counterparts of such signatures to the other party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.2. Termination.** The Representative shall have the right to terminate this Agreement at any time prior to any Closing Date, (i) if any domestic or international event or act or occurrence has materially disrupted, or in the Representative's opinion will in the immediate future materially disrupt, general securities markets in the United States; or (ii) if trading on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC shall have been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been required by FINRA or by order of the Commission or any other government authority having jurisdiction; or (iii) if the United States shall have become involved in a new war or an increase in major hostilities; or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by a New York State or federal authority; or (v) if a moratorium on foreign exchange trading has been declared which materially adversely impacts the United States securities markets; or (vi) if the Company shall have sustained a material loss by fire, flood, accident, hurricane, earthquake, theft, sabotage or other calamity or malicious act which, whether or not such loss shall have been insured, will, in your opinion, make it inadvisable to proceed with the delivery of the Firm Securities or Option Securities; or (vii) if the Company is in material breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants hereunder; or (viii) if the Representative shall have become aware after the date hereof of a Material Adverse Change, or an adverse material change in general market conditions as in the Representative's judgment would make it impracticable to proceed with the offering, sale and/or delivery of the Public Securities or to enforce contracts made by the Underwriters for the sale of the Public Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.3. Expenses.** Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except in the case of a default by the Underwriters, pursuant to Section 6.2 above, in the event that this Agreement shall not be carried out for any reason whatsoever, within the time specified herein or any extensions thereof pursuant to the terms herein, the Company shall be obligated to pay to the Underwriters their actual and accountable out-of-pocket expenses related to the transactions contemplated herein then due and payable (including the fees and disbursements of Representative Counsel) up to $150,000, and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount thereof to the Underwriters; provided, however, that such expense cap in no way limits or impairs the indemnification and contribution provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any advance received by the Underwriters will be reimbursed to the Company to the extent not actually incurred in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(4)(A).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.4. Indemnification.** Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in this Agreement, any election hereunder or any termination of this Agreement, and whether or not this Agreement is otherwise carried out, the provisions of Section 5 shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be in any way affected by, such election or termination or failure to carry out the terms of this Agreement or any part hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.5. Representations, Warranties, Agreements to Survive.** All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or its affiliates or selling agents, any person controlling any Underwriter, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company or (ii) delivery of and payment for the Public Securities.

**9. MISCELLANEOUS.**

To induce the Representative to continue its efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representative, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending six (6) months after the date of the final prospectus (the "**Prospectus**") relating to the Public Offering (the "**Lock-Up Period**"), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Securities or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the "**Lock-Up Securities**"); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Representative in connection with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Public Offering; <u>provided</u> that no filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "**Exchange Act**"), or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the Lock-Up Period in connection with subsequent sales of Lock-Up Securities acquired in such open market transactions; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities as a *bona fide* gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, "family member" means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to a charity or educational institution; or (d) if the undersigned, directly or indirectly, controls a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity interests in, the undersigned, as the case may be; <u>provided</u> that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) or (d), (i) it shall be a condition to any such transfer that (i) the transferee/donee agrees to be bound by the terms of this lock-up agreement (including, without limitation, the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence) to the same extent as if the transferee/donee were a party hereto; (ii) each party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) shall not be required by law (including without limitation the disclosure requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), and the Exchange Act) to make, and shall agree to not voluntarily make, any filing or public announcement of the transfer or disposition prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period; and (iii) the undersigned notifies the Representative at least two (2) business days prior to the proposed transfer or disposition.

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company's transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned's securities subject to this this lock-up agreement except in compliance with this this lock-up agreement.

If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the undersigned agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall be equally applicable to any Securities that the undersigned may purchase in the Public Offering; (ii) the Representative agrees that, at least three (3) business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Representative will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver; and (iii) the Company has agreed in the Underwriting Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two (2) business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representative hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two (2) business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this lock-up agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of such transfer.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Representative are relying upon this lock-up agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this lock-up agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned's heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

The undersigned understands that, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Securities to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this lock-up agreement.

This lock-up agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Attn: Board of Directors

RE: Little West Holdings Inc.

<u>Registration Statement on Form S-1(File No.: 333-292507)</u>

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Little West Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), in connection with the preparation and filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") of the above-caption registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Act</u>"), initially filed with the Commission on December 31, 2025, and as amended on January 21, 2026 and January 30, 2026 (the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"). The Company filed the Registration Statement in connection with the proposed registration of up to an aggregate of 4,312,500 shares of Common Stock consisting of: (i) 3,750,000 shares (the "<u>Company Shares</u>") of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("<u>Common Stock</u>") to be issued and sold by the Company; and (ii) 562,500 shares of Common Stock (the "<u>Over-Allotment Option Shares</u>") issuable upon the exercise of an over-allotment option granted by the Company to the underwriters (the "<u>Over-Allotment Option</u>"). This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

In rendering these opinions, we have examined the Company's articles of incorporation and bylaws, both as currently in effect, the Registration Statement, and the exhibits thereto, and such other records, instruments and documents as we have deemed advisable in order to render these opinions. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. In providing these opinions, we have further relied as to certain matters on information obtained from officers of the Company.

Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and subject to the qualifications, limitations, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that, having been issued and sold in exchange for payment in full to the Company of all consideration required therefor as applicable, and as described in the Registration Statement:

(i) The Company Shares, when issued against payment therefor, will
be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company;

(ii) The Over-Allotment Option Shares, when issued pursuant to the
exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable;

Our opinion is limited to the federal laws of the United States and the corporate laws of Nevada and the internal laws of the State of New York. We express no opinion as to the effect of the law of any other jurisdiction. Our opinion is rendered as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to advise you of changes in law or fact (or the effect thereof on the opinions expressed herein) that hereafter may come to our attention. This opinion letter is limited to the laws in effect as of the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission and is provided exclusively in connection with the public offering and resale offering contemplated by the Registration Statement.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion letter if any applicable laws change after the date of this opinion letter or if we become aware after the date of this opinion letter of any facts, whether existing before or arising after the date hereof, that might change the opinions expressed above.

This opinion letter is furnished in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement and may not be relied upon for any other purpose without our prior written consent in each instance. Further, no portion of this letter may be quoted, circulated or referred to in any other document for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

We consent to the use of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement and further consent to all references to us, if any, in the Registration Statement, and in the Prospectus forming a part thereof. We do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. This opinion is rendered on, and speaks only as of, the date of this letter first written above, and does not address any potential change in facts or law that may occur after the date of this opinion letter. We assume no obligation to advise you of any fact, circumstance, event or change in the law or the facts that may hereafter be brought to our attention, whether or not such occurrence would affect or modify any of the opinions expressed herein.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1**

**LITTLE WEST HOLDINGS INC.**

**INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT**

This **INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT** is made effective as of _______________, 2025 (this "**Agreement**"), by and between Little West Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (the **"Company"**) and the undersigned signatory (**"Indemnitee"**).

**RECITALS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The Company and Indemnitee recognize the continued difficulty in obtaining liability insurance for its
directors, officers, employees, stockholders, controlling persons, agents and fiduciaries, the significant increases in the cost of such
insurance and the general reductions in the coverage of such insurance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. the Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial increase in corporate litigation in general,
which subjects directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, stockholders, agents and fiduciaries to expensive litigation risks
at the same time as the availability and coverage of liability insurance has been severely limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. Indemnitee does not regard the current protection available as adequate under the present circumstances,
and Indemnitee and other directors, officers, employees, stockholders, controlling persons, agents and fiduciaries of the Company may
not be willing to serve in such capacities without additional protection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. The Company (i) desires to attract and retain highly qualified individuals and entities, such as Indemnitee,
to serve the Company and, in part, in order to induce Indemnitee to be involved with the Company and (ii) wishes to provide for the indemnification
and advancing of expenses to Indemnitee to the maximum extent permitted by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. This Agreement forms part of the consideration for Indemnitee to serve, or to continue to serve, as an
officer or director of the Company, and allows Indemnitee to fulfill his or her fiduciary duties under law and take on actions for or
on behalf of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. In view of the considerations set forth above, the Company desires that Indemnitee be indemnified by the
Company as set forth herein.

**NOW, THEREFORE**, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Indemnification</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Indemnification of Expenses</u>. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee (including
its respective directors, officers, partners, former partners, members, former members, employees, agents and spouse, as applicable) and
each person who controls any of them or who may be liable within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the **"Securities Act"**), or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the **"Exchange Act"**), to the fullest extent permitted by law if Indemnitee was or is or becomes a party to or witness or other participant
in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding
or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, or any hearing, inquiry or investigation that Indemnitee believes might lead to the institution
of any such action, suit, proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative
or other (hereinafter a **"Claim"**) by reason of (or arising in part or in whole out of) any event or occurrence related
to the fact that Indemnitee is or was or may be deemed a director, officer, stockholder, employee, controlling person, agent or fiduciary
of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, or is or was or may be deemed to be serving at the request of the Company as a director,
officer, stockholder, employee, controlling person, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while serving in such capacity
including, without limitation, any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities, joint or several (including any investigation,
legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit, proceeding or any claim
asserted) under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise
or which relate directly or indirectly to the registration, purchase, sale or ownership of any securities of the Company or to any fiduciary
obligation owed with respect thereto or as a direct or indirect result of any Claim made by any stockholder of the Company against Indemnitee
and arising out of or related to any round of financing of the Company (including but not limited to Claims regarding non-participation,
or non-pro rata participation, in such round by such stockholder), or made by a third party against Indemnitee based on any misstatement
or omission of a material fact by the Company in violation of any duty of disclosure imposed on the Company by federal or state securities
or common laws (hereinafter an **"Indemnification Event"**) against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees
and all other costs, expenses and obligations incurred in connection with investigating, defending a witness in or participating in (including
on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness in or participate in, any such action, suit, proceeding, alternative dispute resolution
mechanism, hearing, inquiry or investigation), judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (if, and only if, such settlement
is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) of such Claim and any federal, state, local
or foreign taxes imposed on Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement (collectively,
hereinafter **"Expenses"**), including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or
in respect of such Expenses. Such payment of Expenses shall be made by the Company as soon as practicable but in any event no later than
ten (10) days after written demand by Indemnitee therefor is presented to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Reviewing Party</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the obligations of the Company under <u>Section 1(a)</u> shall be subject to the condition that the Reviewing Party (as described in <u>Section 10(e)</u> hereof) shall not have determined
(in a written opinion, in any case in which the Independent Legal Counsel referred to in <u>Section 1(e)</u> hereof is involved)
that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law, and (ii) Indemnitee acknowledges and agrees that the obligation
of the Company to make an advance payment of Expenses to Indemnitee pursuant to <u>Section 2(a)</u> (an **"Expense Advance"**)
shall be subject to the condition that, if, when and to the extent that the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee would not be permitted
to be so indemnified under applicable law, the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse
the Company) for all such amounts theretofore paid; provided, however, that if Indemnitee has commenced or thereafter commences legal
proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law,
any determination made by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not
be binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination
is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed). Indemnitee's obligation
to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon. If there has not been a
Change in Control (as defined in <u>Section 10(c)</u> hereof), the Reviewing Party shall be selected by the Company's Board
of Directors (the **"Board"**), and if there has been such a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control which has
been approved by a majority of the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the Reviewing Party shall be
the Independent Legal Counsel referred to in <u>Section 1(e)</u> hereof. If there has been no determination by the Reviewing Party
or if the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee substantively would not be permitted to be indemnified in whole or in part under
applicable law, Indemnitee shall have the right to commence litigation seeking an initial determination by the court or challenging any
such determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof, including the legal or factual bases therefor, and the Company hereby
consents to service of process and to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party otherwise shall be conclusive
and binding on the Company and Indemnitee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. <u>Contribution</u>. If the indemnification provided for in <u>Section 1(a)</u> above for any reason
is determined by the Reviewing Party or held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to Indemnitee in respect of any losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities referred to therein, then the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee thereunder, shall,
to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by Indemnitee as a result of such losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company
and Indemnitee and the relative fault of the Company and Indemnitee in connection with the action or inaction which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In connection with losses, claims, damages,
expenses or liabilities resulting from the registration of the Company's securities, the relative benefits received by the Company
and Indemnitee shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses)
received by them, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the aggregate public
offering price of the securities so offered. The relative fault of the Company and Indemnitee shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact relates to information supplied by the Company or Indemnitee and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and Indemnitee agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this <u>Section 1(c)</u> were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In connection with losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities resulting from the registration of the Company's securities, in no event shall Indemnitee be required to contribute any amount under this <u>Section 1(c)</u> in excess of the lesser of (i) that proportion of the total of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities indemnified against equal to Indemnitee's proportion of the total securities being offered under such registration statement or (ii) the proceeds received by Indemnitee from its securities sold under the registration statement. Notwithstanding this <u>Section 1(c)</u>, no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Survival Regardless of Investigation</u>. The indemnification and contribution provided for in this <u>Section 1</u> will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Indemnitee or any officer,
director, employee, agent or controlling person of Indemnitee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Change in Control</u>. The Company agrees that if there is a Change in Control of the Company (other
than a Change in Control which has been approved by a majority of the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control)
then, with respect to all matters thereafter arising concerning the rights of Indemnitee to payments of Expenses under this Agreement
or any other agreement or under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the **"Certificate"**) or
Bylaws, as amended, as now or hereafter in effect, Independent Legal Counsel (as defined in <u>Section 10(d)</u> hereof) shall be
selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such counsel, among other things,
shall render its written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee as to whether and to what extent Indemnitee would be permitted to be indemnified
under applicable law. The Company agrees to abide by such opinion and to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Legal Counsel referred
to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees), claims, liabilities and damages
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f. <u>Mandatory Payment of Expenses</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent
that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise, including, without limitation, the dismissal of an action without prejudice,
in the defense of any action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation referred to in <u>Section 1(a)</u> hereof or in the defense
of any claim, issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection herewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Expenses ; Indemnification Procedure.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Advancement of Expenses</u>. Subject to <u>Section 1(b)</u> hereof, the Company shall advance
all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee as soon as practicable
but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days after written demand by Indemnitee therefor to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Notice/Cooperation by Indemnitee</u>. Indemnitee shall give the Company written notice as soon as practicable
of any Claim made against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement; provided, however, that any
failure or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Agreement unless and to the extent
that (i) the Company is not aware of such Claim and (ii) the Company is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. The written notice
to the Company shall include a description of the nature of and the facts underlying the Claim and be directed to the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company at the address shown on the signature page of this Agreement (or such other address as the Company shall designate
in writing to Indemnitee).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. <u>No Presumptions; Burden of Proof</u>. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any Claim
by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent,
shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a
court has determined that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law. In addition, neither the failure of the Reviewing Party
to have made a determination as to whether Indemnitee has met any particular standard of conduct or had any particular belief, nor an
actual determination by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee has not met such standard of conduct or did not have such belief, prior to
the commencement of legal proceedings by Indemnitee to secure a judicial determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable
law, shall be a defense to Indemnitee's claim or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any particular standard of conduct
or did not have any particular belief. In connection with any determination by the Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether Indemnitee
is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the burden of proof shall be on the Company to establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Notice to Insurers</u>. If, at the time of the receipt by the Company of a notice of a Claim pursuant
to <u>Section 2(b)</u> hereof, the Company has liability insurance in effect which may cover such Claim, the Company shall give prompt
written notice of the commencement of such Claim to the applicable insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in each of the
policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee,
all amounts payable as a result of such action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation in accordance with the terms of such policies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Selection of Counsel</u>. In the event the Company is obligated hereunder to pay the Expenses of any
Claim, the Company shall be entitled to participate in the proceeding and assume the control of the defense of such Claim, with counsel
reasonably approved by Indemnitee (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), upon the delivery to Indemnitee
of written notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of
such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred
by Indemnitee with respect to the same Claim; provided that, (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee's counsel
in any such Claim at Indemnitee's sole expense; (ii) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee's own counsel in
connection with such proceeding, at the expense of the Company, if such counsel serves in a review, observer, advice and counseling capacity
and does not otherwise materially control or participate in the defense of such Claim; and (iii) if the Company and Indemnitee have mutually
concluded that there is a conflict of interest between them in the conduct of the defense of such Claim, then Indemnitee is entitled to
retain its own counsel and the reasonable fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel reasonably approved by the Company (such approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be at the expense of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Additional Indemnification Rights; Non-Exclusivity.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Scope</u>. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify Indemnitee for the Expenses of any Claim to the fullest
extent permitted by law, even if indemnification is not specifically authorized by the other provisions of this Agreement or any other
agreement, the Company's Certificate and Bylaws or by statute. In the event of any change after the date of this Agreement in any
applicable law, statute or rule which expands the right of a Nevada corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an
officer, employee, agent or fiduciary, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater
benefits afforded by such change. In the event of any change in any applicable law, statute or rule which narrows the right of a Nevada
corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, employee, agent or fiduciary, such change, to the extent not
otherwise required by such law, statute or rule to be applied to this Agreement, shall have no effect on this Agreement or the parties'
rights and obligations hereunder except as set forth in <u>Section 8(a)</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Non-Exclusivity</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the indemnification provided by this
Agreement shall be in addition to any rights to which Indemnitee may be entitled under the Company's Certificate or Bylaws, any

in this Agreement, the indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action Indemnitee took or
did not take while serving in an indemnified capacity even though Indemnitee may have ceased to serve in such capacity and indemnification
shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee from and after Indemnitee's first day of service as a director with the Company or affiliation

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Mutual Acknowledgement</u>. The Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that in certain instances, applicable
law or public policy may prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, agents or fiduciaries
under this Agreement or otherwise.

under this Agreement, the Company shall maintain liability insurance applicable to directors, officers, employees, control persons, agents
or fiduciaries, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policies in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as
are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company's directors, if Indemnitee is a director, or of the Company's officers,
if Indemnitee is not a director of the Company but is an officer; or of the Company's key employees, controlling persons, agents
or fiduciaries, if Indemnitee is not an officer or director but is a key employee, agent, control person, or fiduciary. Said liability
insurance shall provide coverage amounts of no less than $100,000 and shall be held with an insurance carrier which the Board believes
is of financially sound condition. Further, the Company shall at all times maintain a cash reserve of $100,000 as a self-insurance fund
to backstop any indemnification obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Compensation Recovery Claims</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection
with any Claims for any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation
or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required under the Exchange Act (including any
such reimbursements that rise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Unlawful Indemnification</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection with

cause of action shall be asserted by or in the right of the Company against Indemnitee or Indemnitee's estate, spouse, heirs, executors
or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, and any
claim or cause of action of the Company shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action
within such five (5) year period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause
of action, such shorter period shall govern.

of such constituent corporation, or is or was or may be deemed to be serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director,
officer, employee, control person, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust

Company's then outstanding Voting Securities, increases beneficial ownership of such securities by 5% or more, or (B) becomes the **"beneficial owner"** (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Company representing more than 30% of the total voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding Voting Securities, (ii)
during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director

(2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for
election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof, or (iii) the stockholders of the Company approve

or body consisting of a member or members of the Board or any other person or body appointed by the Board, who is not a party to the particular
Claim for which Indemnitee is seeking indemnification, such as a committee of the Board or Independent Legal Counsel.

agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner
and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement shall continue

Subject to Section 3(c) hereof, if, as a result of any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in the Company's capital stock, the outstanding shares of Stock are increased or decreased or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company, or additional shares or new or different shares or other securities of the Company or other non-cash assets are distributed with respect to such shares of Stock or other securities, or, if, as a result of any merger or consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the outstanding shares of Stock are converted into or exchanged for securities of the Company or any successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), the Administrator shall make an appropriate or proportionate adjustment in (i) the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, including the maximum number of shares that may be issued in the form of Incentive Stock Options, (ii) the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to any then outstanding Awards under the Plan, (iii) the repurchase price, if any, per share subject to each outstanding Restricted Stock Award, and (iv) the exercise price for each share subject to any then outstanding Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights under the Plan, without changing the aggregate exercise price (i.e., the exercise price multiplied by the number of Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) as to which such Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights remain exercisable. The Administrator shall also make equitable or proportionate adjustments in the number of shares subject to outstanding Awards and the exercise price and the terms of outstanding Awards to take into consideration cash dividends paid other than in the ordinary course or any other extraordinary corporate event. The adjustment by the Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued under the Plan resulting from any such adjustment, but the Administrator in its discretion may make a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Mergers and Other Transactions</u>. In the case of and subject to the consummation of a Sale Event, the parties thereto may cause the assumption or continuation of Awards theretofore granted by the successor entity, or the substitution of such Awards with new Awards of the successor entity or parent thereof, with appropriate adjustment as to the number and kind of shares and, if appropriate, the per share exercise prices, as such parties shall agree. To the extent the parties to such Sale Event do not provide for the assumption, continuation or substitution of Awards, upon the effective time of the Sale Event, the Plan and all outstanding Awards granted hereunder shall terminate. In such case, except as may be otherwise provided in the relevant Award Certificate, all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that are not exercisable immediately prior to the effective time of the Sale Event shall become fully exercisable as of the effective time of the Sale Event, all other Awards with time-based vesting, conditions or restrictions shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable as of the effective time of the Sale Event, and all Awards with conditions and restrictions relating to the attainment of performance goals may become vested and nonforfeitable in connection with a Sale Event in the Administrator's discretion or to the extent specified in the relevant Award Certificate. In the event of such termination, (i) the Company shall have the option (in its sole discretion) to make or provide for a payment, in cash or in kind, to the grantees holding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, in exchange for the cancellation thereof, in an amount equal to the difference between (A) the Sale Price multiplied by the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (to the extent then exercisable at prices not in excess of the Sale Price) and (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (provided that, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise price equal to or less than the Sale Price, such Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be cancelled for no consideration); or (ii) each grantee shall be permitted, within a specified period of time prior to the consummation of the Sale Event as determined by the Administrator, to exercise all outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (to the extent then exercisable) held by such grantee. The Company shall also have the option (in its sole discretion) to make or provide for a payment, in cash or in kind, to the grantees holding other Awards in an amount equal to the Sale Price multiplied by the number of vested shares of Stock under such Awards.

**SECTION 4. <u>ELIGIBILITY</u>**

Grantees under the Plan will be such full or part-time officers and other employees, Non-Employee Directors and Consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries as are selected from time to time by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

**SECTION 5. <u>STOCK OPTIONS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Award of Stock Options</u>. The Administrator may grant Stock Options under the Plan. Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the Administrator may from time to time approve.

Stock Options granted under the Plan may be either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company or any Subsidiary that is a "subsidiary corporation" within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code. To the extent that any Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it shall be deemed a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

Stock Options granted pursuant to this Section 5 shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable. If the Administrator so determines, Stock Options may be granted in lieu of cash compensation at the optionee's election, subject to such terms ad conditions as the Administrator may establish.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Exercise Price</u>. The exercise price per share for the Stock covered by a Stock Option granted pursuant to this Section 5 shall be determined by the Administrator at the time of grant but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is granted to a Ten Percent Owner, the option price of such Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value on the grant date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stock Options may be granted with an exercise price per share that is less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Option Term</u>. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Stock Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date the Stock Option is granted. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option that is granted to a Ten Percent Owner, the term of such Stock Option shall be no more than five years from the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Exercisability; Rights of a Stockholder</u>. Stock Options shall become exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Administrator at or after the grant date. The Administrator may at any time accelerate the exercisability of all or any portion of any Stock Option. An optionee shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares acquired upon the exercise of a Stock Option and not as to unexercised Stock Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Exercisability; Rights of a Stockholder</u>. Stock Options shall become exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Administrator at or after the grant date. The Administrator may at any time accelerate the exercisability of all or any portion of any Stock Option. An optionee shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares acquired upon the exercise of a Stock Option and not as to unexercised Stock Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Method of Exercise</u>. Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part, by giving written or electronic notice of exercise to the Company, specifying the number of shares to be purchased. Payment of the purchase price may be made by one or more of the following methods except to the extent otherwise provided in the Option Award Certificate:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (i) In cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Administrator;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Through the delivery (or attestation to the ownership following such procedures as the Company may prescribe) of shares of Stock that are not then subject to restrictions under any Company plan. Such surrendered shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) By the optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company for the purchase price; provided that in the event the optionee chooses to pay the purchase price as so provided, the optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Company shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) With respect to Stock Options that are not Incentive Stock Options, by a "net exercise" arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of shares of Stock issuable upon exercise by the largest whole number of shares with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price.

Payment instruments will be received subject to collection. The transfer to the optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent of the shares of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of a Stock Option will be contingent upon receipt from the optionee (or a purchaser acting in his stead in accordance with the provisions of the Stock Option) by the Company of the full purchase price for such shares and the fulfillment of any other requirements contained in the Option Award Certificate or applicable provisions of laws (including the satisfaction of any withholding taxes that the Company is obligated to withhold with respect to the optionee). In the event an optionee chooses to pay the purchase price by previously-owned shares of Stock through the attestation method, the number of shares of Stock transferred to the optionee upon the exercise of the Stock Option shall be net of the number of attested shares. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the exercise of Stock Options, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless exercise of Stock Options may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Annual Limit on Incentive Stock Options</u>. To the extent required for "incentive stock option" treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the shares of Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under this Plan and any other plan of the Company or its parent and subsidiary corporations become exercisable for the first time by an optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. To the extent that any Stock Option exceeds this limit, it shall constitute a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

**SECTION 6. <u>STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Award of Stock Appreciation Rights</u>. The Administrator may grant Stock Appreciation Rights under the Plan. A Stock Appreciation Right is an Award entitling the recipient to receive shares of Stock (or cash, to the extent explicitly provided for in the applicable Award Certificate) having a value equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise over the exercise price of the Stock Appreciation Right multiplied by the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right shall have been exercised.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Exercise Price of Stock Appreciation Rights</u>. The exercise price of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Grant and Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights</u>. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted by the Administrator independently of any Stock Option granted pursuant to Section 5 of the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights</u>. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined on the date of grant by the Administrator. The term of a Stock Appreciation Right may not exceed ten years. The terms and conditions of each such Award shall be determined by the Administrator, and such terms and conditions may differ among individual Awards and grantees.

**SECTION 7. <u>RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Nature of Restricted Stock Awards</u>. The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock Awards under the Plan. A Restricted Stock Award is any Award of Restricted Shares subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Administrator may determine at the time of grant. Conditions may be based on continuing employment (or other Service Relationship) and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals and objectives.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>. Upon the grant of the Restricted Stock Award and payment of any applicable purchase price, a grantee shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to the voting of the Restricted Shares and receipt of dividends; provided that if the lapse of restrictions with respect to the Restricted Stock Award is tied to the attainment of performance goals, any dividends paid by the Company during the performance period shall accrue and shall not be paid to the grantee until and to the extent the performance goals are met with respect to the Restricted Stock Award. Unless the Administrator shall otherwise determine, (i) uncertificated Restricted Shares shall be accompanied by a notation on the records of the Company or the transfer agent to the effect that they are subject to forfeiture until such Restricted Shares are vested as provided in Section 7(d) below, and (ii) certificated Restricted Shares shall remain in the possession of the Company until such Restricted Shares are vested as provided in Section 7(d) below, and the grantee shall be required, as a condition of the grant, to deliver to the Company such instruments of transfer as the Administrator may prescribe.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Restrictions</u>. Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of except as specifically provided herein or in the Restricted Stock Award Certificate. Except as may otherwise be provided by the Administrator either in the Award Certificate or, subject to Section 15 below, in writing after the Award is issued, if a grantee's employment (or other service relationship) with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates for any reason, any Restricted Shares that have not vested at the time of termination shall automatically and without any requirement of notice to such grantee from or other action by or on behalf of, the Company be deemed to have been reacquired by the Company at its original purchase price (if any) from such grantee or such grantee's legal representative simultaneously with such termination of employment (or other service relationship), and thereafter shall cease to represent any ownership of the Company by the grantee or rights of the grantee as a stockholder. Following such deemed reacquisition of Restricted Shares that are represented by physical certificates, a grantee shall surrender such certificates to the Company upon request without consideration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Vesting of Restricted Shares</u>. The Administrator at the time of grant shall specify the date or dates and/or the attainment of pre-established performance goals, objectives and other conditions on which the non- transferability of the Restricted Shares and the Company's right of repurchase or forfeiture shall lapse. Subsequent to such date or dates and/or the attainment of such pre-established performance goals, objectives and other conditions, the shares on which all restrictions have lapsed shall no longer be Restricted Shares and shall be deemed "vested."

**SECTION 8. <u>RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Nature of Restricted Stock Units</u>. The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan. A Restricted Stock Unit is an Award of stock units that may be settled in shares of Stock (or cash, to the extent explicitly provided for in the Award Certificate) upon the satisfaction of such restrictions and conditions at the time of grant. Conditions may be based on continuing employment (or other service relationship) and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals and objectives. The terms and conditions of each such Award shall be determined by the Administrator, and such terms and conditions may differ among individual Awards and grantees. Except in the case of Restricted Stock Units with a deferred settlement date that complies with Section 409A, at the end of the vesting period, the Restricted Stock Units, to the extent vested, shall be settled in the form of shares of Stock. Restricted Stock Units with deferred settlement dates are subject to Section 409A and shall contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Election to Receive Restricted Stock Units in Lieu of Compensation</u>. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit a grantee to elect to receive a portion of future cash compensation otherwise due to such grantee in the form of an award of Restricted Stock Units. Any such election shall be made in writing and shall be delivered to the Company no later than the date specified by the Administrator and in accordance with Section 409A and such other rules and procedures established by the Administrator. Any such future cash compensation that the grantee elects to defer shall be converted to a fixed number of Restricted Stock Units based on the Fair Market Value of Stock on the date the compensation would otherwise have been paid to the grantee if such payment had not been deferred as provided herein. The Administrator shall have the sole right to determine whether and under what circumstances to permit such elections and to impose such limitations and other terms and conditions thereon as the Administrator deems appropriate. Any Restricted Stock Units that are elected to be received in lieu of cash compensation shall be fully vested, unless otherwise provided in the Award Certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>. A grantee shall have the rights as a stockholder only as to shares of Stock acquired by the grantee upon settlement of Restricted Stock Units; provided, however, that the grantee may be credited with Dividend Equivalent Rights with respect to the stock units underlying his Restricted Stock Units, subject to the provisions of Section 11 and such terms and conditions as the Administrator may determine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Termination</u>. Except as may otherwise be provided by the Administrator either in the Award Certificate or, subject to Section 15 below, in writing after the Award is issued, a grantee's right in all Restricted Stock Units that have not vested shall automatically terminate upon the grantee's termination of employment (or cessation of service relationship) with the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason.

**SECTION 9. <u>UNRESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS</u>**

<u>Grant or Sale of Unrestricted Stock</u>. The Administrator may grant (or sell at par value or such higher purchase price determined by the Administrator) an Unrestricted Stock Award under the Plan. An Unrestricted Stock Award is an Award pursuant to which the grantee may receive shares of Stock free of any restrictions under the Plan. Unrestricted Stock Awards may be granted in respect of past services or other valid consideration, or in lieu of cash compensation due to such grantee.

**SECTION 10. <u>CASH-BASED AWARDS</u>**

<u>Grant of Cash-Based Awards</u>. The Administrator may grant Cash-Based Awards under the Plan. A Cash- Based Award is an Award that entitles the grantee to a payment in cash upon the attainment of specified performance goals. The Administrator shall determine the maximum duration of the Cash-Based Award, the amount of cash to which the Cash-Based Award pertains, the conditions upon which the Cash-Based Award shall become vested or payable, and such other provisions as the Administrator shall determine. Each Cash-Based Award shall specify a cash-denominated payment amount, formula or payment ranges as determined by the Administrator. Payment, if any, with respect to a Cash-Based Award shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Award and may be made in cash.

**SECTION 11. <u>DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHTS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Dividend Equivalent Rights</u>. The Administrator may grant Dividend Equivalent Rights under the Plan. A Dividend Equivalent Right is an Award entitling the grantee to receive credits based on cash dividends that would have been paid on the shares of Stock specified in the Dividend Equivalent Right (or other Award to which it relates) if such shares had been issued to the grantee. A Dividend Equivalent Right may be granted hereunder to any grantee as a component of an award of Restricted Stock Units or as a freestanding award. The terms and conditions of Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be specified in the Award Certificate. Dividend equivalents credited to the holder of a Dividend Equivalent Right may be paid currently or may be deemed to be reinvested in additional shares of Stock, which may thereafter accrue additional equivalents. Any such reinvestment shall be at Fair Market Value on the date of reinvestment or such other price as may then apply under a dividend reinvestment plan sponsored by the Company, if any. Dividend Equivalent Rights may be settled in cash or shares of Stock or a combination thereof, in a single installment or installments. A Dividend Equivalent Right granted as a component of an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall provide that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall be settled only upon settlement or payment of, or lapse of restrictions on, such other Award, and that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall expire or be forfeited or annulled under the same conditions as such other Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Termination</u>. Except as may otherwise be provided by the Administrator either in the Award Certificate or, subject to Section 15 below, in writing after the Award is issued, a grantee's rights in all Dividend Equivalent Rights shall automatically terminate upon the grantee's termination of employment (or cessation of service relationship) with the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason.

**SECTION 12. <u>TRANSFERABILITY OF AWARDS</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Transferability</u>. Except as provided in Section 12(b) below, during a grantee's lifetime, his or her Awards shall be exercisable only by the grantee, or by the grantee's legal representative or guardian in the event of the grantee's incapacity. No Awards shall be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by a grantee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order. No Awards shall be subject, in whole or in part, to attachment, execution, or levy of any kind, and any purported transfer in violation hereof shall be null and void.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Administrator Action</u>. Notwithstanding Section 12(a), the Administrator, in its discretion, may provide either in the Award Certificate regarding a given Award or by subsequent written approval that the grantee (who is an employee or director) may transfer his or her Non-Qualified Stock Options to his or her immediate family members, to trusts for the benefit of such family members, or to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners, provided that the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Plan and the applicable Award. In no event may an Award be transferred by a grantee for value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Family Member</u>. For purposes of Section 12(b), "family member" shall mean a grantee's child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the grantee's household (other than a tenant of the grantee), a trust in which these persons (or the grantee) have more than fifty percent (50%) of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which these persons (or the grantee) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which these persons (or the grantee) own more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Designation of Beneficiary</u>. To the extent permitted by the Company, each grantee to whom an Award has been made under the Plan may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise any Award or receive any payment under any Award payable on or after the grantee's death. Any such designation shall be on a form provided for that purpose by the Administrator and shall not be effective until received by the Administrator. If no beneficiary has been designated by a deceased grantee, or if the designated beneficiaries have predeceased the grantee, the beneficiary shall be the grantee's estate.

**SECTION 13. <u>TAX WITHHOLDING</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Payment by Grantee</u>. Each grantee shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award or of any Stock or other amounts received thereunder first becomes includable in the gross income of the grantee for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of, any Federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld by the Company with respect to such income. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the grantee. The Company's obligation to deliver evidence of book entry (or stock certificates) to any grantee is subject to and conditioned on tax withholding obligations being satisfied by the grantee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Payment in Stock</u>. Subject to approval by the Administrator, a grantee may elect to have the Company's required tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by authorizing the Company to withhold from shares of Stock to be issued pursuant to any Award a number of shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due; provided, however, that the amount withheld does not exceed the maximum statutory tax rate or such lesser amount as is necessary to avoid liability accounting treatment. The Administrator may also require Awards to be subject to mandatory share withholding up to the required withholding amount. For purposes of share withholding, the Fair Market Value of withheld shares shall be determined in the same manner as the value of Stock includible in income of the Participants. The required tax withholding obligation may also be satisfied, in whole or in part, by an arrangement whereby a certain number of shares of Stock issued pursuant to any Award are immediately sold and proceeds from such sale are remitted to the Company in an amount that would satisfy the withholding amount due.

**SECTION 14. <u>SECTION 409A AWARDS</u>**

To the extent that any Award is determined to constitute "nonqualified deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A (a "<u>409A Award</u>"), the Award shall be subject to such additional rules and requirements as specified by the Administrator from time to time in order to comply with Section 409A. In this regard, if any amount under a 409A Award is payable upon a "separation from service" (within the meaning of Section 409A) to a grantee who is then considered a "specified employee" (within the meaning of Section 409A), then no such payment shall be made prior to the date that is the earlier of (i) six months and one day after the grantee's separation from service, or (ii) the grantee's death, but only to the extent such delay is necessary to prevent such payment from being subject to interest, penalties and/or additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A. Further, the settlement of any 409A Award may not be accelerated except to the extent permitted by Section 409A.

**SECTION 15. <u>TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT, TRANSFER, LEAVE OF ABSENCE, ETC.</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Termination of Employment</u>. If the grantee's Service Relationship is with a Subsidiary and such Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary, the grantee shall be deemed to have terminated his or her Service Relationship for purposes of the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (b) For purposes of the Plan, the following events shall not be deemed a termination of employment:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a transfer to the employment of the Company from a Subsidiary or from the Company to a Subsidiary, or from one Subsidiary to another; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness, or for any other purpose approved by the Company, if the employee's right to re-employment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the Administrator otherwise so provides in writing.

**SECTION 16. <u>AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION</u>**

The Board may, at any time, amend or discontinue the Plan and the Administrator may, at any time, amend or cancel any outstanding Award for the purpose of satisfying changes in law or for any other lawful purpose, but no such action shall adversely affect rights under any outstanding Award without the holder's consent. Except as provided in Section 3(b) or 3(c), without prior stockholder approval, in no event may the Administrator exercise its discretion to reduce the exercise price of outstanding Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or effect repricing through cancellation and re-grants or cancellation of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights in exchange for cash or other Awards. To the extent required under the rules of any securities exchange or market system on which the Stock is listed, to the extent determined by the Administrator to be required by the Code to ensure that Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan are qualified under Section 422 of the Code, Plan amendments shall be subject to approval by the Company stockholders entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders. Nothing in this Section 16 shall limit the Administrator's authority to take any action permitted pursuant to Section 3(b) or 3(c).

**SECTION 17. <u>STATUS OF PLAN</u>**

With respect to the portion of any Award that has not been exercised and any payments in cash, Stock or other consideration not received by a grantee, a grantee shall have no rights greater than those of a general creditor of the Company unless the Administrator shall otherwise expressly determine in connection with any Award or Awards. In its sole discretion, the Administrator may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the Company's obligations to deliver Stock or make payments with respect to Awards hereunder, provided that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the foregoing sentence.

**SECTION 18. <u>U.S. LEGENDS AND EXERCISE</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Awards and the shares of Stock issuable on the exercise of any Awards have not and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act and the Company has no current intention to effect such registration. The Awards represented by an Award Certificate may not be exercised in the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. Person nor will the shares of Stock issuable upon exercise hereof be registered or delivered to an address in the United States, unless an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act and the securities laws of any U.S. state is available or the Company has received an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Company to such effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) All Award Certificates representing Incentive Stock Options and Non-Qualified Stock Options will be required to bear the following legend:

**THIS [INSERT TYPE OF AWARD] AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. <u>Manner of Exercise</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Optionee may exercise this Stock Option only in the following manner: from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Stock Option, the Optionee may give written notice to the Administrator of his or her election to purchase some or all of the Option Shares purchasable at the time of such notice. This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be purchased.

Payment of the purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more of the following methods: (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Administrator; (ii) through the delivery (or attestation to the ownership) of shares of Stock that have been purchased by the Optionee on the open market or that are beneficially owned by the Optionee and are not then subject to any restrictions under any Company plan and that otherwise satisfy any holding periods as may be required by the Administrator; or (iii) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay the option purchase price as so provided, the Optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure; or (iv) a combination of (i), (ii) and (iii) above. Payment instruments will be received subject to collection.

The transfer to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent of the Option Shares will be contingent upon (i) the Company's receipt from the Optionee of the full purchase price for the Option Shares, as set forth above, (ii) the fulfillment of any other requirements contained herein or in the Plan or in any other agreement or provision of laws, and (iii) the receipt by the Company of any agreement, statement or other evidence that the Company may require to satisfy itself that the issuance of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Stock Options under the Plan and any subsequent resale of the shares of Stock will be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In the event the Optionee chooses to pay the purchase price by previously-owned shares of Stock through the attestation method, the number of shares of Stock transferred to the Optionee upon the exercise of the Stock Option shall be net of the Shares attested to.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of this Stock Option shall be transferred to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Administrator with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such transfer and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination of the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the Optionee. The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares of Stock subject to this Stock Option unless and until this Stock Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company or the transfer agent shall have transferred the shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee's name shall have been entered as the stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such shares of Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion of this Stock Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Termination of Service Relationship</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship by the Company or a Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) is terminated, the period within which to exercise the Stock Option may be subject to earlier termination as set forth below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Termination Due to Death</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates by reason of the Optionee's death, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date, to the extent exercisable on the date of death, may thereafter be exercised by the Optionee's legal representative or legatee for a period of 12 months from the date of death or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of death shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Termination Due to Disability</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates by reason of the Optionee's disability (as determined by the Administrator), any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date, to the extent exercisable on the date of such termination of Service Relationship, may thereafter be exercised by the Optionee for a period of 12 months from the date of disability or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of disability shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Termination for Cause</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates for Cause, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date shall terminate immediately and be of no further force and effect. For purposes hereof, "Cause" shall mean, unless otherwise provided in an employment agreement (or similar services agreements) between the Company and the Optionee, a determination by the Administrator that the Optionee shall be dismissed as a result of (i) any material breach by the Optionee of any agreement between the Optionee and the Company; (ii) the conviction of, indictment for or plea of nolo contendere by the Optionee to a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; or (iii) any material misconduct or willful and deliberate non-performance (other than by reason of disability) by the Optionee of the Optionee's duties to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Other Termination</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates for any reason other than the Optionee's death, the Optionee's disability, or Cause, and unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of termination, for a period of three months from the date of termination or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of termination shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

The Administrator's determination of the reason for termination of the Optionee's Service Relationship shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and his or her representatives or legatees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Incorporation of Plan</u>. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Stock Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth in Section 2(b) of the Plan. Capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Transferability</u>. This Agreement is personal to the Optionee, is non-assignable and is not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Stock Option is exercisable, during the Optionee's lifetime, only by the Optionee, and thereafter, only by the Optionee's legal representative or legatee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Status of the Stock Option</u>. This Stock Option is intended to qualify as an "incentive stock option" under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "<u>Code</u>"), but the Company does not represent or warrant that this Stock Option qualifies as such. The Optionee should consult with his or her own tax advisors regarding the tax effects of this Stock Option and the requirements necessary to obtain favorable income tax treatment under Section 422 of the Code, including, but not limited to, holding period requirements. To the extent any portion of this Stock Option does not so qualify as an "incentive stock option," such portion shall be deemed to be a non-qualified stock option. If the Optionee intends to dispose or does dispose (whether by sale, gift, transfer or otherwise) of any Option Shares within the one-year period beginning on the date after the transfer of such shares to him or her, or within the two-year period beginning on the day after the grant of this Stock Option, he or she will so notify the Company within 30 days after such disposition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Tax Withholding</u>. The Optionee shall, not later than the date as of which the exercise of this Stock Option becomes a taxable event for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of any Federal, state, and local taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event. The Company shall have the authority to cause the required tax withholding obligation to be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from shares of Stock to be issued to the Optionee a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the withholding amount due; provided, however, that the amount withheld does not exceed the maximum statutory tax rate or such lesser amount as is necessary to avoid adverse accounting treatment or as determined by the Administrator.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>No Obligation to Continue Service Relationship</u>. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to continue the Optionee's Service Relationship and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the Service Relationship of the Optionee at any time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Integration</u>. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to this Stock Option and supersedes all prior agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Data Privacy Consent</u>. In order to administer the Plan and this Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and certain agents thereof (together, the "<u>Relevant Companies</u>") may process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan and/or this Agreement (the "<u>Relevant Information</u>"). By entering into this Agreement, the Optionee (i) authorizes the Company to collect, process, register and transfer to the Relevant Companies all Relevant Information; (ii) waives any privacy rights the Optionee may have with respect to the Relevant Information; (iii) authorizes the Relevant Companies to store and transmit such information in electronic form; and (iv) authorizes the transfer of the Relevant Information to any jurisdiction in which the Relevant Companies consider appropriate. The Optionee shall have access to, and the right to change, the Relevant Information. Relevant Information will only be used in accordance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Notices</u>. Notices hereunder shall be mailed or delivered to the Company at its principal place of business and shall be mailed or delivered to the Optionee at the address on file with the Company or, in either case, at such other address as one party may subsequently furnish to the other party in writing.

Except as set forth below, and subject to the discretion of the Administrator (as defined in Section 2 of the Plan) to accelerate the exercisability schedule hereunder, this Stock Option shall be exercisable with respect to the following number of Option Shares on the dates indicated so long as Optionee continues to have a Service Relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary on such dates:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 2. <u>Manner of Exercise</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Optionee may exercise this Stock Option only in the following manner: from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Stock Option, the Optionee may give written notice to the Administrator of his or her election to purchase some or all of the Option Shares purchasable at the time of such notice. This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be purchased.

Payment of the purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more of the following methods: (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Administrator; (ii) through the delivery (or attestation to the ownership) of shares of Stock that have been purchased by the Optionee on the open market or that are beneficially owned by the Optionee and are not then subject to any restrictions under any Company plan and that otherwise satisfy any holding periods as may be required by the Administrator; (iii) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay the option purchase price as so provided, the Optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure; (iv) by a "net exercise" arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of shares of Stock issuable upon exercise by the largest whole number of shares with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; or (v) a combination of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above. Payment instruments will be received subject to collection.

The transfer to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent of the Option Shares will be contingent upon (i) the Company's receipt from the Optionee of the full purchase price for the Option Shares, as set forth above, (ii) the fulfillment of any other requirements contained herein or in the Plan or in any other agreement or provision of laws, and (iii) the receipt by the Company of any agreement, statement or other evidence that the Company may require to satisfy itself that the issuance of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Stock Options under the Plan and any subsequent resale of the shares of Stock will be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In the event the Optionee chooses to pay the purchase price by previously-owned shares of Stock through the attestation method, the number of shares of Stock transferred to the Optionee upon the exercise of the Stock Option shall be net of the Shares attested to.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of this Stock Option shall be transferred to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer agent upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Administrator with all requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such transfer and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan. The determination of the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the Optionee. The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares of Stock subject to this Stock Option unless and until this Stock Option shall have been exercised pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company or the transfer agent shall have transferred the shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee's name shall have been entered as the stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other ownership rights with respect to such shares of Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion of this Stock Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Termination of Service Relationship</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship by the Company or a Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) is terminated, the period within which to exercise the Stock Option may be subject to earlier termination as set forth below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Termination Due to Death</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates by reason of the Optionee's death, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date, to the extent exercisable on the date of death, may thereafter be exercised by the Optionee's legal representative or legatee for a period of 12 months from the date of death or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of death shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Termination Due to Disability</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates by reason of the Optionee's disability (as determined by the Administrator), any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date, to the extent exercisable on the date of such termination of Service Relationship, may thereafter be exercised by the Optionee for a period of 12 months from the date of disability or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of disability shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Termination for Cause</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates for Cause, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date shall terminate immediately and be of no further force and effect. For purposes hereof, "Cause" shall mean, unless otherwise provided in an employment agreement (or similar services agreements) between the Company and the Optionee, a determination by the Administrator that the Optionee shall be dismissed as a result of (i) any material breach by the Optionee of any agreement between the Optionee and the Company; (ii) the conviction of, indictment for or plea of nolo contendere by the Optionee to a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; or (iii) any material misconduct or willful and deliberate non-performance (other than by reason of disability) by the Optionee of the Optionee's duties to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Other Termination</u>. If the Optionee's Service Relationship terminates for any reason other than the Optionee's death, the Optionee's disability or Cause, and unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, any portion of this Stock Option outstanding on such date may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of termination, for a period of three months from the date of termination or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. Any portion of this Stock Option that is not exercisable on the date of termination shall terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

The Administrator's determination of the reason for termination of the Optionee's Service Relationship shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and his or her representatives or legatees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Incorporation of Plan</u>. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Stock Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth in Section 2(b) of the Plan. Capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Transferability</u>. This Agreement is personal to the Optionee, is non-assignable and is not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Stock Option is exercisable, during the Optionee's lifetime, only by the Optionee, and thereafter, only by the Optionee's legal representative or legatee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Tax Withholding</u>. The Optionee shall, not later than the date as of which the exercise of this Stock Option becomes a taxable event for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of any Federal, state, and local taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event. The Company shall have the authority to cause the required tax withholding obligation to be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from shares of Stock to be issued to the Optionee a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the withholding amount due; provided, however, that the amount withheld does not exceed the maximum statutory tax rate or such lesser amount as is necessary to avoid adverse accounting treatment or as determined by the Administrator.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>No Obligation to Continue Service Relationship</u>. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to continue the Optionee's Service Relationship and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the Service Relationship of the Optionee at any time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Integration</u>. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to this Stock Option and supersedes all prior agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Data Privacy Consent</u>. In order to administer the Plan and this Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and certain agents thereof (together, the "<u>Relevant Companies</u>") may process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan and/or this Agreement (the "Relevant Information"). By entering into this Agreement, the Optionee (i) authorizes the Company to collect, process, register and transfer to the Relevant Companies all Relevant Information; (ii) waives any privacy rights the Optionee may have with respect to the Relevant Information; (iii) authorizes the Relevant Companies to store and transmit such information in electronic form; and (iv) authorizes the transfer of the Relevant Information to any jurisdiction in which the Relevant Companies consider appropriate. The Optionee shall have access to, and the right to change, the Relevant Information. Relevant Information will only be used in accordance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Notices</u>. Notices hereunder shall be mailed or delivered to the Company at its principal place of business and shall be mailed or delivered to the Optionee at the address on file with the Company or, in either case, at such other address as one party may subsequently furnish to the other party in writing.

● Each payment will be made when due even if at that time the full amount of the Loan has not yet been advanced or the authorized amount of the Loan has been reduced.

<u>COLLATERAL</u>

● For loan amounts of greater than $25,000, Borrower hereby grants to SBA, the secured party hereunder, a continuing security interest in and to any and all "Collateral" as described herein to secure payment and performance of all debts, liabilities and obligations of Borrower to SBA hereunder without limitation, including but not limited to all interest, other fees and expenses (all hereinafter called "Obligations").

<u>REQUIREMENTS RELATIVE TO COLLATERAL</u>

● Borrower will not sell or transfer any collateral (except normal inventory turnover in the ordinary course of business) described in the "Collateral" paragraph hereof without the prior written consent of SBA.

<u>USE OF LOAN PROCEEDS</u>

the first six (6) Month period from the Effective Date; (ii) an additional Minimum Payment within the next six Month period from Month
six (6) to Month twelve (12) of the Term so that the total paid is at least 60 percent of the Total Payment Amount by the end of Month
twelve (12) and (iii) the Total Payment Amount prior to the end of the Term. In furtherance of this promise, the Borrower promises to
make Daily Payments to Lender that will apply towards the Minimum Payments, starting on the Effective Date until the Total Payment Amount
is received by Lender. Your Daily Payments are based on gross sales. Refunds, returns, or cancellations of a transaction are not deducted
or adjusted. No refunds or adjustments will be provided for Daily Payments that exceed the Minimum Payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1.2. In addition to the Daily Payments, You may make one or more
additional payments for any amount, up to and including the then-remaining Outstanding Total Payment Amount ()"**Manual Payments**") without penalty or fees. For example, you may be required to make a Manual Payment to meet your obligation
to pay the Minimum Payment amount by the end of Month six (6) or Month twelve (12) (as applicable). Manual Payments may be made only
by ACH, or such other method that Lender permits, in its sole discretion. Lender may refuse any attempted Manual Payment or impose limits
on the frequency or amounts of Manual Payments at any time. If You successfully make a Manual Payment that is less than the Outstanding
Total Payment Amount, the Outstanding Total Payment Amount will be adjusted by the amount of such Manual Payment. If You successfully
pay the entire Outstanding Total Payment Amount, You will have no further payment obligations to Us under the Agreement. If the Manual
Payment is reversed or disputed, then any credit to the Outstanding Total Payment Amount applied as a result of the Manual Payment will
be reversed as of the date it was applied and You will continue to be obligated to repay Your Loan under this Agreement until the Total
Payment Amount has been repaid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2. Fund Transfers. To the extent that Processor or Other Processor,
if applicable, is not acting on behalf of Lender pursuant to Section 4.2.1 below or as Lender may otherwise determine, Lender may act
in accordance with Section 4.2.2 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2.1. **Processing Arrangement.** Borrower explicitly authorizes and directs Processor or Other Processor to transfer to Lender from the SMBA,
any Other Business Account and/or any other account containing Your Shopify Account Credits or Other Business Credits (collectively,
the "**Account** "): (a) Daily Payments due on Business
Days, will be transferred on a daily basis and Daily Payments due on a non-Business Day will be transferred on the following Business
Day until the Total Payment Amount has been paid to Lender; (b) Each Minimum Payment due equal to the Minimum Payment amount minus all
Daily Payments received (i) for the first Minimum Payment due, from the Effective Date through Month six (6), and (ii) for the second
Minimum Payment due, from the beginning of Month seven (7) through Month twelve (12); (c) any outstanding Total Payment Amount on the
last Day of the Term and (d) in the event that the Lender declares the entire Outstanding Total Payment Amount (plus any other amounts
due under this Agreement) to be immediately due and payable upon an Event of Default, the then Outstanding Total Payment Amount plus
the amount of any other outstanding Obligations. Upon an Event of Default, You irrevocably authorize Processor and any Other Processor
to deliver all funds on deposit in any Account to Us until We have received the Outstanding Total Payment Amount (plus any other amounts
due under this Agreement). You agree that any Processor and Other Processor may rely on any instructions issued by Us with respect to
the delivery of funds on deposit in any Account, including, but not limited to, an instruction to deliver to Us all Shopify Account Credits,
Other Business Credits, and funds on deposit in any such Accounts to Us until the then Outstanding Total Payment Amount (plus any other
amounts due under this Agreement) are delivered to Us after an Event of Default. You agree that You do not have the right to revoke or
otherwise seek to override the authorization set forth herein and that this authorization may only be revoked by Us. If there has been
no Event of Default, no Processor or Other Processor will deliver to Us any particular payment owed hereunder if such payment has already
been delivered to Us by Processor or Other Processor, as applicable, or We have taken such amount via Section 4.2.2 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2.2. **Lender Electronic Fund Transfer Authorization.** You irrevocably authorize Us (which includes, for the purposes of this authorization,
Our agents, service providers, successors, and assigns) to initiate an electronic fund transfer via the ACH network from any Account
in the amount of any Payment due or other amount due under this Agreement. You authorize Us, to initiate a single ACH for the combined
amounts of different Payments owed hereunder (e.g., initiate a single ACH on Monday for Daily Payments that were created on Friday, Saturday,
and Sunday) or to initiate individual ACHs for any such Payments. We will not initiate an ACH for any Payments delivered to Us via Section
4.2.1. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, You irrevocably authorize Us to initiate an ACH or ACHs from any Account until We
have received the Outstanding Total Payment Amount (plus any other Obligations or amounts due under this Agreement). You also authorize
Us to initiate ACH credits or debits to any Account to correct any errors We may make in processing a payment. In the event that an ACH
is returned unpaid, You authorize Us to re-initiate the ACH until it is paid. You agree that You will not cancel this authorization or
instruct any depository holding Shopify Account Credits (or, after an Event of Default, any other depository holding Other Business Credits)
to reject Our ACHs. **You promise that the Account is used for business purposes and not for personal, family, consumer or household purposes and that You are an authorized signor on the Accounts.** You agree
to be bound by the rules and regulations of the National Automated Clearing House Association ()"**NACHA** ").
Any failure by Shopify to automatically deduct via an electronic fund transfer the amount required for You to meet Your Minimum Payment
obligation within a six (6) Month period will not be considered a waiver of Section 4.1 by Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.3. **Make-up Payments; Transfer Size/Timing.** If any of Lender, Processor or Other Processor is unable to effect a transfer or debit for
any payment due hereunder, You authorize and direct Lender, Processor or Other Processor, as applicable, on any subsequent Day to deduct
any available funds from Your Account, as applicable, to make up for the failed transfer or debit until the full amount of the failed
transfer or debit has been paid in full. You authorize and direct any of Lender, Processor or Other Processor to initiate transfers or
debits for Make-up Payments in combination with any other payments due or as separate transfers or debits. You agree that any transfer
or debit may be split into multiple, smaller transfers or debits and/or initiated the moment funds are credited to the Account, as applicable.

**10.** **Miscellaneous** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1. **Modifications; Amendments.** No modification, amendment, waiver,
or consent of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2. **Assignment.** We may assign, transfer, or sell Our right to receive the Total Payment Amount or any other rights hereunder or delegate Our
duties hereunder, either in whole or in part, without prior notice to You, and without Your consent, to any person, including to Shopify
Inc. or any affiliate of Shopify Inc. Borrower may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations hereunder, either in whole or in
part, without prior written consent from Us, which consent We may withhold in Our sole and absolute discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3. **Governing Law/Forum.** Except as set forth in the Arbitration Provision: (a) this Agreement, any transactions it contemplates, the construction
of the terms of the Agreement, and all transactions, and the interpretation, performance, and enforcement of the rights and duties of
You and Us, will be governed by and construed in accordance with federal law and, to the extent state law applies, the laws of the State
of Utah without regard to conflicts of law principles; and (b) the parties agree that federal law and, to the extent state law applies,
the laws of the State of Utah govern the entire relationship between the parties, including, without limitation, all issues or claims
arising out of, relating to, in connection with, or incident to this Agreement and any transaction it contemplates, whether such claims
are based in tort or contract, or arise under statute or in equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is made and
performed in the State of Utah.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4. **Survival.** Except as set forth in the Arbitration provisions, all provisions of this Agreement, including Section 12, that by their nature
are intended to survive Your performance of all obligations hereunder will survive and remain in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.5. **Waiver; Remedies.** We reserve the right, at any time and in Our sole and absolute discretion, not to exercise any of Our other rights
under this Agreement and, should We do so, We will not waive Our right to exercise the right as set forth in this Agreement in the future.
Without limiting the foregoing, We may, at Our option, accept partial payments without notifying You and without releasing You from Your
obligation to pay all amounts owing under this Agreement in full or to otherwise perform the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
You understand and agree that Your obligation to pay all amounts owing under this Agreement and otherwise to perform the terms and conditions
of this Agreement are absolute and unconditional. No failure on Our part to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under this
Agreement constitutes a waiver of such right, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right under this Agreement preclude any
other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right. The remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and
not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.6. **Severability.** In case any of the provisions in this Agreement are found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect by a court
of competent jurisdiction, the validity, legality, and enforceability of any other provision contained herein will not in any way be
affected or impaired, and that court will have the power to rewrite that provision to the maximum extent enforceable and the remainder
of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.7. **Counterparts; Electronic Signatures.** This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which constitutes an original and
all of which when taken together constitute the same agreement. Electronic signatures will be deemed manual signatures, and each party
to this Agreement may rely on an electronic signature as an original for purposes of enforcing this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt,
Borrower's acceptance of the Agreement by clicking "Submit Application" will be deemed to constitute such party's
electronic signature and effective as a manual signature of each such party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.8. **Entire Agreement.** This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Borrower and Lender relating to this Loan and supersedes
any other prior or contemporaneous agreement between You and Us relating to this Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.9. **Inspection of Place of Borrower.** We or Our designated representatives and agents have the right during Your normal business hours and
at other reasonable times to examine Your business where located, including the interior and exterior. Any such examination may include,
among other things, whether You have a place of business that is separate from any personal residence, are open for business, have sufficient
inventory to conduct Your business, and have one or more point-of-sale terminals to process payment transactions. When performing an
examination, We or Our designated representatives and agents may photograph the interior and exterior of any of Your places of business,
including any signage and may photograph any principals.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.10. **Publicity.** You and each Owner authorize Us to use Your name
in a listing of clients and in advertising and marketing materials.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.11. **Binding Effect.** This Agreement is binding upon and inures to
the benefit of You and Us and Our respective successors and permitted assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.12. **Maximum Interest Rate.** Regardless of any provisions contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan documents, Lender shall
never be deemed to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect, or apply as interest (whether explicit or deemed to be interest
by judicial determination or operation of law) on the Loan, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged
by applicable law, and, in the event Lender receives, collects, or applies as interest any such excess, such amount that would be excessive
interest shall be deemed to be a partial prepayment of principal and treated hereunder as such, and if the principal balance of the Loan
is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable
under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, Borrower and Lender shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable
law: (a) characterize any non-principal payment (other than payments that are expressly designated as interest payments hereunder) as
an expense, fee, or premium, rather than as interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof; and (c) spread the total
amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loan so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.13. **Headings.** Section headings are for convenience of reference
only and shall in no way affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.14. **Information Sharing between Lender, Processor, and Other Processor.** You authorize Lender to share with its affiliates, Processor, and
Other Processor any information in Lender's records related to this Loan, including information about Your payment history. You
also authorize Lender's Processor or Other Processor to share with Lender any information in their records related to Your Shopify
Services Account or any Account and any services Borrower obtains pursuant to the Processor or Other Processor. You also authorize Other
Processor to share with Lender any information in its records related to any Other Business Credits, any Shopify Services account, and
any Other Business Account. You agree that there is no limitation on the purpose for which Lender may share such information with its
affiliates, Processor, or Other Processor or for which Lender's affiliates, Processor, or Other Processor may share such information
with Lender. You further agree that Lender, Processor, and Other Processor may use such information in their sole and absolute discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.15. Disclosure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.15.1. Neither party will disclose the other's Confidential
Information to any third parties, except that Lender may make any disclosures: (a) contemplated by this Agreement; (b) that are reasonably
necessary for consummation of this Agreement; (c) to its affiliates, members, managers, investors, prospective investors, financing sources,
and equity holders and any external accountants, agents, attorneys, and other advisors; (d) to Processor or Other Processor; (e) as required
or requested by any regulatory authority or examiner; (f) any insurance association; (g) as required by any applicable law, court decree,
subpoena, or legal or administrative order or process; (h) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder; or (i) as agreed
by Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.15.2. Borrower understands and agrees that the terms and conditions
of the products and services offered hereunder, including this Agreement and any other agreement related hereto ()"**Lender Information** "), are proprietary and Confidential Information of Lender. Accordingly, unless disclosure is required by
law or court order, Borrower shall not disclose any Lender Information to any other person other than an attorney, accountant or financial
advisor who needs to know such information for purposes of advising Borrower; provided such person uses such Lender Information solely
for the purposes of advising Borrower and first agrees not to disclose any Lender Information to any person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.16. **Credit Reports.** Borrower acknowledges that We may report information about Borrower's obligation under this Agreement to credit
bureaus. A default under this Agreement may be reflected in Borrower's credit report.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.17. **Right To Cancel.** Within three (3) business days of the Effective Date, You may cancel this Agreement by notifying Us in writing
and returning to Lender the full amount advanced by Lender to Your SMBA on the Effective Date. Such notice and return of the amount of
the Loan must be received by Us prior to midnight on the third business day after the Effective Date. Instructions for the return of
the amount of the Loan will be provided by Lender upon receipt of notice of cancellation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.18. **Processor Waiver.** You waive and release any and all claims You may have against Processor or Other Processor that are in any way related
to its respective duties as a processor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.19. Indemnity; Limitation of Liability. YOU, YOUR SUCCESSORS
AND PERMITTED ASSIGNEES AND AFFILIATES, AGREE TO FOREVER PROTECT, INDEMNIFY, AND "HOLD HARMLESS" US, PROCESSOR, OTHER PROCESSOR(S),
AND THEIR AND OUR RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, MANAGERS, MEMBERS, AGENTS, AND AFFILIATES, AGAINST
ALL DAMAGES, EXPENSES, CLAIMS, SUITS, DEMANDS, COSTS, ATTORNEYS' FEES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR ALLEGED TO HAVE ARISEN OUT OF

PAYMENTS TO US AS DESCRIBED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THE EXERCISE OF ANY OF OUR RIGHTS AS DESCRIBED IN THIS AGREEMENT. IN NO EVENT WILL
WE, OUR AFFILIATES, PROCESSOR, OR OTHER PROCESSOR(S) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY **THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE OR PROFIT OR LOSS OF DATA OR FOR ANY DIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.20. **Power of Attorney.** You grant to Us an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, and appoint Us and Our designees
as Your attorney-in-fact to take any and all actions necessary or appropriate to direct new or additional processors to make payment
to Us as contemplated by this Agreement.

**11.** **Communications Between You and Lender.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.1. **Notices.** All notices, requests, consents, demands, and other communications hereunder must be in writing and delivered by electronic
mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the respective parties to this Agreement, in the case of the Borrower, at the Borrower's
addresses set forth in the Shopify Admin, and in the case of the Lender to 100 Shockoe Slip, 2nd Floor, Richmond, VA 23219 or *capital-support@shopify.com*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.2. **Consent to Electronic Disclosures.** You consent to receive electronically any disclosure, notice, or communication that is required
by law to be provided in writing at any email address you provide to Us. You agree to maintain up to date hardware and software that
is capable of receiving and retaining such materials, and You also agree to promptly notify Us of any change to your email address so
that you can continue to receive such materials from Us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.3. **Telephone, Text, and Email Servicing Communications.** We may use automated telephone dialling, text messaging systems, and electronic
mail to provide messages to You about the Loan. The telephone messages may be played by a machine automatically when the telephone is
answered, whether answered by You or another party. These messages may also be recorded by Your answering machine or voicemail. You give
Us permission to call or send a text message to any telephone number that You or Your Authorized Representative have given Us and to
play pre-recorded or artificial messages or send text messages with information about this Agreement, the SMBA or Your Loan over the
phone. You also give Us permission to communicate such information to You via electronic mail. You agree that We will not be liable to
You for any such calls or electronic communications, even if information is communicated to an unintended recipient. You understand that,
when You receive such calls or electronic communications, You may incur a charge from the company that provides You with telecommunications,
wireless, and/or Internet services. You agree that We have no liability for such charges. You agree to immediately notify Us if You change
telephone numbers or are otherwise no longer the subscriber or customary user of a telephone number You have previously provided to Us.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.4. **Monitoring and Recording.** We, Processor,
or Other Processor may monitor, tape, or electronically record Our telephone calls with You.

**12.** **Arbitration Provision with Class Action Waiver.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.1. You and We (which for the purposes of this Section 12 includes
Shopify Inc. and Shopify Capital Inc.) agree to resolve any and all claims and disputes relating in any way to this Agreement or Our
dealings with You ()"**Claims** "), except for Claims concerning
the validity, scope, or enforceability of this Section 12 ()"**Arbitration Provision** "), through **BINDING** **INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION**.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, You or We may bring an individualized action in small claims court for Claims within the jurisdiction
of that court. This Arbitration Provision is made with respect to transactions involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by
the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (the "**FAA** "),
and not by state law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.2. **Individual Arbitration.** By entering into this Arbitration Provision, neither You nor We will be able to have the dispute settled by a
court or jury trial or to participate in a class action, collective action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding.
Other rights that You and We would have if You or We went to court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including
the right to appeal. You and We each understand that by agreeing to resolve any dispute through individual arbitration, **WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.** The arbitrator(s)
may not consolidate more than one party's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
Further, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the
extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. If applicable law precludes enforcement of any of
this paragraph's limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from arbitration
and may be brought in court. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than this paragraph's limitations is deemed invalid
or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.3. **Arbitration Rules.** Arbitration of any dispute under this Arbitration Provision shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to the applicable
rules of JAMS in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated. You may contact JAMS to obtain information about arbitration, by calling
800-352-5267 or visiting www.jamsadr.com. If JAMS is unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration of a dispute, then a dispute may
be referred to any other arbitration organization You and We agree upon or to an arbitration organization or arbitrator appointed pursuant
to section 5 of the FAA. Arbitrations shall be conducted before a single arbitrator. Any in-person arbitration shall take place in the
federal judicial district in which Your physical address is located unless otherwise agreed by You and Us in writing. If Your claim is
for $10,000 or less, We agree that You may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted
to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS rules. If Your claim exceeds $10,000,
the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS rules.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.4. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted,
the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award
is based. The arbitrator shall apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations and shall
be authorized to award any relief that would have been available in court, provided that the arbitrator's authority to resolve
claims and make awards is limited to You and Us alone, except as otherwise specifically stated herein. The decision by the arbitrator
shall be final and binding. You and We agree that this Arbitration Provision extends to any other parties involved in any Claims, including
but not limited to Your and Our employees, affiliated companies, and vendors. In the event of any conflict between this Arbitration Provision
and the JAMS arbitration rules or the rules of any other arbitration organization or arbitrator, this Arbitration Provision shall govern.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.5. **Arbitration Fees and Costs.** Except as otherwise provided for herein, We will pay all JAMS filing, administration, and arbitrator fees.
If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of Your claim or the relief sought in Your arbitration demand is frivolous
or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment
of such fees will be governed by the JAMS rules. In such case, You agree to reimburse Us for all monies previously disbursed by Us that
are otherwise Your obligation to pay under the JAMS rules. In addition, if You initiate an arbitration in which You seek more than $75,000
in damages, the payment of these fees will be governed by the JAMS rules.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.6. Arbitration
 Provision Is Optional. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, BUT YOU MUST
 EXERCISE THIS RIGHT PROMPTLY. If
 You do not wish to be bound by this agreement to arbitrate, You must notify Us in
 writing within sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement. You must send Your request
 to: 100 Shockoe Slip, 2nd Floor Richmond, VA 23219, or to contract_notices@shopify.com. The
 request must include Your full name, address, Shopify Store name, d/b/a name (if applicable),
 and the statement "*I reject the Arbitration Provision contained in my Shopify Loan Agreement.*" If You
 exercise Your right under this Section 12.6 to reject arbitration, the other terms of this
 Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as if You had not rejected arbitration. Opting
 out of this Arbitration Provision has no effect on any other or future arbitration agreements
 that You may have with Us.

**13.** **Register.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.1. You agree that Lender, on Your behalf, may maintain a register
in order to record the amount of Your Loan and, acting solely for this purpose as Your non-fiduciary agent, shall maintain a register
of the current or future owner of Your Loan (including any assignee, participant or transferee, if any, who becomes the subsequent owner
of any portion of Your Loan) (the "**Register** "). Absent
manifest error and notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, assignments and transfers of ownership of Your Loan are not effective until reflected in the Register. The
parties hereto agree that the entity whose name is recorded in the Register as the current owner of Your Loan is treated as the owner
of Your Loan for all purposes. The Register must be updated for any transfer of ownership of Your Loan to occur. As to Your Loan, Lender
shall make the Register available for inspection upon reasonable request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.2. By clicking on "Submit Application" You are signing
this Agreement electronically. You agree that your electronic signature is the equivalent of a physical signature. You further agree,
on behalf of Your business WS WEST LLC, as Borrower, to the terms of this Agreement, which includes an arbitration and waiver of class
action provision, and You agree that You are an Authorized Representative of Borrower and acknowledge that You received a copy of this
Agreement.

" Prepayment Fee " means: (a) 5% of the Principal Balance if the Prepayment Date is on or before Ascentium's receipt of the 12th Payment, or (b) 4% of the Principal Balance if the Prepayment Date is following Ascentium's receipt of the 12th Payment but on or before its receipt of the 24 th Payment; or (c) 3% of the Principal Balance if the Prepayment Date is following Ascentium's receipt of the 24 th Payment but on or before its receipt of the 36 th Payment; or (d) 2% of the Principal Balance if the Prepayment Date is following Ascentium's receipt of the 36 th Payment but on or before its receipt of the 48 th Payment; or (e) 1% of the Principal Balance if the Prepayment Date is following Ascentium's receipt of the 48 th Payment.

If the Applicable Requirements are hereafter changed so as to require during the term of this Lease the construction of an addition to or an alteration of the Unit, Premises and/or Building, the remediation of any Hazardous Substance, or the reinforcement or other physical modification of the Unit, Premises and/or Building (" Capital Expenditure "), Lessor and Lessee shall allocate the cost of such work as follows: (a) Subject to Paragraph 2.3(c) below, if such Capital Expenditures are required as a result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Lessee as compared with uses by tenants in general, Lessee shall be fully responsible for the cost thereof, provided, however, that if such Capital Expenditure is required during the last 2 years of this Lease and the cost thereof exceeds 6 months' Base Rent, Lessee may instead terminate this Lease unless Lessor notifies Lessee, in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Lessee's termination notice that Lessor has elected to pay the difference between the actual cost thereof and the amount equal to 6 months' Base Rent. If Lessee elects termination, Lessee shall immediately cease the use of the Premises which requires such Capital Expenditure and deliver to Lessor written notice specifying a termination date at least 90 days thereafter. Such termination date shall, however, in no event be earlier than the last day that Lessee could legally utilize the Premises without commencing such Capital Expenditure. (b) If such Capital Expenditure is not the result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Lessee (such as, governmentally mandated seismic modifications), then Lessor shall pay for such Capital Expenditure and Lessee shall only be obligated to pay, each month during the remainder of the term of this Lease or any extension thereof, on the date that on which the Base Rent is due, an amount equal to 1/144th of the portion of such costs reasonably attributable to the Premises. Lessee shall pay Interest on the balance but may prepay its obligation at any time. If, however, such Capital Expenditure is required during the last 2 years of this Lease or if Lessor reasonably determines that it is not economically feasible to pay its share thereof, Lessor shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon 90 days prior written notice to Lessee unless Lessee notifies Lessor, in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Lessor's termination notice that Lessee will pay for such Capital Expenditure. If Lessor does not elect to terminate, and fails to tender its share of any such Capital Expenditure, Lessee may advance such funds and deduct same, with Interest, from Rent until Lessor's share of such costs have been fully paid. If Lessee is unable to finance Lessor's share, or if the balance of the Rent due and payable for the remainder of this Lease is not sufficient to fully reimburse Lessee on an offset basis, Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon 30 days written notice to Lessor. (c) Notwithstanding the above, the provisions concerning Capital Expenditures are intended to apply only to non - voluntary, unexpected, and new Applicable Requirements. If the Capital Expenditures are instead triggered by Lessee as a result of an actual or proposed change in use, change in intensity of use, or modification to the Premises then, and in that event, Lessee shall either: (i) immediately cease such changed use or intensity of use and/or take such other steps as may be necessary to eliminate the requirement for such Capital Expenditure, or (ii) complete such Capital Expenditure at its own expense. Lessee shall not have any right to terminate this Lease. 4. Acknowledgements. Lessee acknowledges that: (a) Lessee has been given an opportunity to inspect and measure the Premises; (b) Lessee has been advised by Lessor and/or Brokers to satisfy itself with respect to the size and condition of the Premises (including but not limited to the electrical, HVAC and fire sprinkler systems, security, environmental aspects, and compliance with Applicable Requirements and the Americans with Disabilities Act), and their suitability for Lessee's intended use; (c) Lessee has made such investigation as it deems necessary with reference to such matters and assumes all responsibility therefor as the same relate to its occupancy of the Premises; (d) it is not relying on any representation as to the size of the Premises made by Brokers or Lessor; (e) the square footage of the Premises was not material to Lessee's decision to lease the Premises and pay the Rent stated herein; and (f) neither Lessor, Lessor's agents, nor Brokers have made any oral or written representations or warranties with respect to said matters other than as set forth in this Lease. In addition, Lessor acknowledges that: (i) Brokers have made no representations, promises or warranties concerning Lessee's ability to honor the Lease or suitability to occupy the Premises; and (ii) it is Lessor's sole responsibility to investigate the financial capability and/or suitability of all proposed tenants. 5. Lessee as Prior Owner/Occupant . The warranties made by Lessor in Paragraph 2 shall be of no force or effect if immediately prior to the Start Date Lessee was the owner or occupant of the Premises. In such event, Lessee shall be responsible for any necessary corrective work. 6. Vehicle Parking . Lessee shall be entitled to use the number of Parking Spaces specified in Paragraph 1.2(b) on those portions of the Common Areas designated from time to time by Lessor for parking. Lessee shall not use more parking spaces than said number. Said parking spaces shall be used for parking by vehicles no larger than full - size passenger automobiles or pick - up trucks, herein called " Permitted Size Vehicles ." Lessor may regulate the loading and unloading of vehicles by adopting Rules and Regulations as provided in Paragraph 2.9. No vehicles other than Permitted Size Vehicles may be parked in the Common Area without the prior written permission of Lessor. In addition: (a) Lessee shall not permit or allow any vehicles that belong to or are controlled by Lessee or Lessee's employees, suppliers, shippers, customers, contractors or invitees to be loaded, unloaded, or parked in areas other than those designated by Lessor for such activities. (b) Lessee shall not service or store any vehicles in the Common Areas. (c) If Lessee permits or allows any of the prohibited activities described in this Paragraph 2.6, then Lessor shall have the right, without notice, in addition to such other rights and remedies that it may have, to remove or tow away the vehicle involved and charge the cost to Lessee, which cost shall be immediately payable upon demand by Lessor. 7. Common Areas - Definition . The term " Common Areas " is defined as all areas and facilities outside the Premises and within the exterior boundary line of the Project and interior utility raceways and installations within the Unit that are provided and designated by the Lessor from time to time for the general non - exclusive use of Lessor, Lessee and other tenants of the Project and their respective employees, suppliers, shippers, customers, contractors and invitees, including parking areas, loading and unloading areas, trash areas, roofs, roadways, walkways, driveways and landscaped areas. 8. Common Areas - Lessee's Rights . Lessor grants to Lessee, for the benefit of Lessee and its employees, suppliers, shippers, contractors, customers and invitees, during the term of this Lease, the non - exclusive right to use, in common with others entitled to such use, the Common Areas as they exist from time to time, subject to any rights, powers, and privileges reserved by Lessor under the terms hereof or under the terms of any rules and regulations or restrictions governing the use of the Project. Under no circumstances shall the right herein granted to use the Common Areas be deemed to include the right to store any property, temporarily or permanently, in the Common Areas. Any such storage shall be permitted only by the prior written consent of Lessor or Lessor's designated agent, which consent may be revoked at any time. In the event that any unauthorized storage shall occur, then Lessor shall have the right, without notice, in addition to such other rights and remedies that it may have, to remove the property and charge the cost to Lessee, which cost shall be immediately payable upon demand by Lessor. 9. Common Areas - Rules and Regulations . Lessor or such other person(s) as Lessor may appoint shall have the exclusive control and management of the Common Areas and shall have the right, from time to time, to establish, modify, amend and enforce reasonable rules and regulations (" Rules and Regulations ") for the management, safety, care, and cleanliness of the grounds, the parking and unloading of vehicles and the preservation of good order, as well as for the convenience of other occupants or tenants of the Building and the Project and their invitees. Lessee agrees to abide by and conform to all such Rules and Regulations, and shall use its best efforts to cause its employees, suppliers, shippers, customers, contractors and invitees to so abide and conform. Lessor shall not be responsible to Lessee for the non - compliance with said Rules and Regulations by other tenants of the Project. 10. Common Areas - Changes . Lessor shall have the right, in Lessor's sole discretion, from time to time: (a) To make changes to the Common Areas, including, without limitation, changes in the location, size, shape and number of driveways, entrances, parking spaces, parking areas, loading and unloading areas, ingress, egress, direction of traffic, landscaped areas, walkways and utility raceways; (b) To close temporarily any of the Common Areas for maintenance purposes so long as reasonable access to the Premises remains available; (c) To designate other land outside the boundaries of the Project to be a part of the Common Areas; (d) To add additional buildings and improvements to the Common Areas; (e) To use the Common Areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs or alterations to the Project, or any portion thereof; and (f) To do and perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to or with respect to the Common Areas and Project as Lessor may, in the exercise of sound business judgment, deem to be appropriate. 3. Term. 1. Term . The Commencement Date, Expiration Date and Original Term of this Lease are as specified in Paragraph 1.3. 2. Early Possession. Any provision herein granting Lessee Early Possession of the Premises is subject to and conditioned upon the Premises being available for such possession prior to the Commencement Date. Any grant of Early Possession only conveys a non - exclusive right to occupy the Premises. If Lessee totally or AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

partially occupies the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, the obligation to pay Base Rent shall be abated for the period of such Early Possession. All other terms of this Lease (including but not limited to the obligations to pay Lessee's Share of Common Area Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and insurance premiums and to maintain the Premises) shall be in effect during such period. Any such Early Possession shall not affect the Expiration Date. 3. Delay In Possession. Lessor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver exclusive possession of the Premises to Lessee by the Commencement Date. If, despite said efforts, Lessor is unable to deliver possession by such date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease or change the Expiration Date. Lessee shall not, however, be obligated to pay Rent or perform its other obligations until Lessor delivers possession of the Premises and any period of rent abatement that Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed shall run from the date of delivery of possession and continue for a period equal to what Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed under the terms hereof, but minus any days of delay caused by the acts or omissions of Lessee. If possession is not delivered within 60 days after the Commencement Date, as the same may be extended under the terms of any Work Letter executed by Parties, Lessee may, at its option, by notice in writing within 10 days after the end of such 60 day period, cancel this Lease, in which event the Parties shall be discharged from all obligations hereunder. If such written notice is not received by Lessor within said 10 day period, Lessee's right to cancel shall terminate. If possession of the Premises is not delivered within 120 days after the Commencement Date, this Lease shall terminate unless other agreements are reached between Lessor and Lessee, in writing. 4. Lessee Compliance . Lessor shall not be required to tender possession of the Premises to Lessee until Lessee complies with its obligation to provide evidence of insurance (Paragraph 8.5). Pending delivery of such evidence, Lessee shall be required to perform all of its obligations under this Lease from and after the Start Date, including the payment of Rent, notwithstanding Lessor's election to withhold possession pending receipt of such evidence of insurance. Further, if Lessee is required to perform any other conditions prior to or concurrent with the Start Date, the Start Date shall occur but Lessor may elect to withhold possession until such conditions are satisfied. 4. Rent. 1. Rent Defined . All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the terms of this Lease (except for the Security Deposit) are deemed to be rent (" Rent "). 2. Common Area Operating Expenses . Lessee shall pay to Lessor during the term hereof, in addition to the Base Rent, Lessee's Share (as specified in Paragraph 1.6) of all Common Area Operating Expenses, as hereinafter defined, during each calendar year of the term of this Lease, in accordance with the following provisions: (a) The following costs relating to the ownership and operation of the Project are defined as " Common Area Operating Expenses ": (i) Costs relating to the operation, repair and maintenance, in neat, clean, good order and condition, but not the replacement (see subparagraph (e)), of the following: (aa) The Common Areas and Common Area improvements, including parking areas, loading and unloading areas, trash areas, roadways, parkways, walkways, driveways, landscaped areas, bumpers, irrigation systems, Common Area lighting facilities, fences and gates, elevators, roofs, exterior walls of the buildings, building systems and roof drainage systems. (bb) Exterior signs and any tenant directories. (cc) Any fire sprinkler systems. (dd) All other areas and improvements that are within the exterior boundaries of the Project but outside of the Premises and/or any other space occupied by a tenant. (ii) The cost of water, gas, electricity and telephone to service the Common Areas and any utilities not separately metered. (iii) The cost of trash disposal, pest control services, property management, security services, owners' association dues and fees, the cost to repaint the exterior of any structures and the cost of any environmental inspections. (iv) Reserves set aside for maintenance and repair of Common Areas and Common Area equipment. (v) Any increase above the Base Real Property Taxes (as defined in Paragraph 10). (vi) Any "Insurance Cost Increase" (as defined in Paragraph 8). (vii) Any deductible portion of an insured loss concerning the Building or the Common Areas. (viii) Auditors', accountants' and attorneys' fees and costs related to the operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the Project. (ix) The cost of any capital improvement to the Building or the Project not covered under the provisions of Paragraph 2.3, provided, however, that Lessor shall allocate the cost of any such capital improvement over a 12 year period and Lessee shall not be required to pay more than Lessee's Share of 1/144th of the cost of such capital improvement in any given month. Lessee shall pay Interest on the unamortized balance but may prepay its obligation at any time. (x) The cost of any other services to be provided by Lessor that are stated elsewhere in this Lease to be a Common Area Operating Expense. (b) Any Common Area Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes that are specifically attributable to the Unit, the Building or to any other building in the Project or to the operation, repair and maintenance thereof, shall be allocated entirely to such Unit, Building, or other building. However, any Common Area Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes that are not specifically attributable to the Building or to any other building or to the operation, repair and maintenance thereof, shall be equitably allocated by Lessor to all buildings in the Project. (c) The inclusion of the improvements, facilities and services set forth in Subparagraph 4.2(a) shall not be deemed to impose an obligation upon Lessor to either have said improvements or facilities or to provide those services unless the Project already has the same, Lessor already provides the services, or Lessor has agreed elsewhere in this Lease to provide the same or some of them. (d) Lessee's Share of Common Area Operating Expenses is payable monthly on the same day as the Base Rent is due hereunder. The amount of such payments shall be based on Lessor's estimate of the annual Common Area Operating Expenses. Within 60 days after written request (but not more than once each year) Lessor shall deliver to Lessee a reasonably detailed statement showing Lessee's Share of the actual Common Area Operating Expenses for the preceding year. If Lessee's payments during such year exceed Lessee's Share, Lessor shall credit the amount of such over - payment against Lessee's future payments. If Lessee's payments during such year were less than Lessee's Share, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency within 10 days after delivery by Lessor to Lessee of the statement. (e) Common Area Operating Expenses shall not include the cost of replacing equipment or capital components such as the roof, foundations, exterior walls or Common Area capital improvements, such as the parking lot paving, elevators, or fences that have a useful life for accounting purposes of 5 years or more. (f) Common Area Operating Expenses shall not include any expenses paid by any tenant directly to third parties, or as to which Lessor is otherwise reimbursed by any third party, other tenant, or insurance proceeds. 4.3 Payment. Lessee shall cause payment of Rent to be received by Lessor in lawful money of the United States, without offset or deduction (except as specifically permitted in this Lease), on or before the day on which it is due. All monetary amounts shall be rounded to the nearest whole dollar. In the event that any statement or invoice prepared by Lessor is inaccurate such inaccuracy shall not constitute a waiver and Lessee shall be obligated to pay the amount set forth in this Lease. Rent for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one full calendar month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of said month. Payment of Rent shall be made to Lessor at its address stated herein or to such other persons or place as Lessor may from time to time designate in writing. Acceptance of a payment which is less than the amount then due shall not be a waiver of Lessor's rights to the balance of such Rent, regardless of Lessor's endorsement of any check so stating. In the event that any check, draft, or other instrument of payment given by Lessee to Lessor is dishonored for any reason, Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor the sum of $25 in addition to any late charges and Lessor, at its option, may require all future Rent be paid by cashier's check. Payments will be applied first to accrued late charges and attorney's fees, second to accrued interest, then to Base Rent and Common Area Operating Expenses, and any remaining amount to any other outstanding charges or costs. 5. Security Deposit. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execution hereof the Security Deposit as security for Lessee's faithful performance of its obligations under this Lease. If Lessee fails to pay Rent, or otherwise Defaults under this Lease, Lessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said Security Deposit for the payment of any amount already due Lessor, for Rents which will be due in the future, and/ or to reimburse or compensate Lessor for any liability, expense, loss or damage which Lessor may suffer or incur by reason thereof. If Lessor uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Lessee shall within 10 days after written request therefor deposit monies with Lessor sufficient to restore said Security Deposit to the full amount required by this Lease. If the Base Rent increases during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall, upon written request from Lessor, deposit additional monies with Lessor so that the total amount of the Security Deposit shall at all times bear the same proportion to the increased Base Rent as the initial Security Deposit bore to the initial Base Rent. Should the Agreed Use be amended to accommodate a material change in the business of Lessee or to accommodate a sublessee or assignee, Lessor shall have the right to increase the Security Deposit to the extent necessary, in Lessor's reasonable judgment, to account for any increased wear and tear that the Premises may suffer as a result thereof. If a change in control of Lessee occurs during this Lease and following such change the financial condition of Lessee is, in Lessor's reasonable judgment, significantly reduced, Lessee shall deposit such additional monies with Lessor as shall be sufficient to cause the Security Deposit to be at a commercially reasonable level based on such change in financial condition. Lessor shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. Within 90 days after the expiration or termination of this Lease, Lessor shall return that portion of the Security Deposit not used or applied by Lessor. Lessor shall upon written request provide Lessee with an accounting showing how that portion of the Security Deposit that was not returned was applied. No part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be held in trust, to bear interest or to be prepayment for any monies to be paid by Lessee under this Lease. THE SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL NOT BE USED BY LESSEE IN LIEU OF PAYMENT OF THE LAST MONTH'S RENT. AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

6. Use. 1. Use. Lessee shall use and occupy the Premises only for the Agreed Use, or any other legal use which is reasonably comparable thereto, and for no other purpose. Lessee shall not use or permit the use of the Premises in a manner that is unlawful, creates damage, waste or a nuisance, or that disturbs occupants of or causes damage to neighboring premises or properties. Other than guide, signal and seeing eye dogs, Lessee shall not keep or allow in the Premises any pets, animals, birds, fish, or reptiles. Lessor shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any written request for a modification of the Agreed Use, so long as the same will not impair the structural integrity of the Building or the mechanical or electrical systems therein, and/or is not significantly more burdensome to the Project. If Lessor elects to withhold consent, Lessor shall within 7 days after such request give written notification of same, which notice shall include an explanation of Lessor's objections to the change in the Agreed Use. 2. Hazardous Substances. (a) Reportable Uses Require Consent . The term " Hazardous Substance " as used in this Lease shall mean any product, substance, or waste whose presence, use, manufacture, disposal, transportation, or release, either by itself or in combination with other materials expected to be on the Premises, is either: (i) potentially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, the environment or the Premises; (ii) regulated or monitored by any governmental authority; or (iii) a basis for potential liability of Lessor to any governmental agency or third party under any applicable statute or common law theory. Hazardous Substances shall include, but not be limited to, hydrocarbons, petroleum, gasoline, and/or crude oil or any products, byproducts or fractions thereof. Lessee shall not engage in any activity in or on the Premises which constitutes a Reportable Use of Hazardous Substances without the express prior written consent of Lessor and timely compliance (at Lessee's expense) with all Applicable Requirements. " Reportable Use " shall mean (i) the installation or use of any above or below ground storage tank; (ii) the generation, possession, storage, use, transportation, or disposal of a Hazardous Substance that requires a permit from, or with respect to which a report, notice, registration or business plan is required to be filed with, any governmental authority, and/or (iii) the presence at the Premises of a Hazardous Substance with respect to which any Applicable Requirements requires that a notice be given to persons entering or occupying the Premises or neighboring properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may use any ordinary and customary materials reasonably required to be used in the normal course of the Agreed Use such as ordinary office supplies (copier toner, liquid paper, glue, etc.) and common household cleaning materials, so long as such use is in compliance with all Applicable Requirements, is not a Reportable Use, and does not expose the Premises or neighboring property to any meaningful risk of contamination or damage or expose Lessor to any liability therefor. In addition, Lessor may condition its consent to any Reportable Use upon receiving such additional assurances as Lessor reasonably deems necessary to protect itself, the public, the Premises and/or the environment against damage, contamination, injury and/or liability, including, but not limited to, the installation (and removal on or before Lease expiration or termination) of protective modifications (such as concrete encasements) and/or increasing the Security Deposit. (b) Duty to Inform Lessor . If Lessee knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, that a Hazardous Substance has come to be located in, on, under or about the Premises, other than as previously consented to by Lessor, Lessee shall immediately give written notice of such fact to Lessor, and provide Lessor with a copy of any report, notice, claim or other documentation which it has concerning the presence of such Hazardous Substance. (c) Lessee Remediation . Lessee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substance to be spilled or released in, on, under, or about the Premises (including through the plumbing or sanitary sewer system) and shall promptly, at Lessee's expense, comply with all Applicable Requirements and take all investigatory and/or remedial action reasonably recommended, whether or not formally ordered or required, for the cleanup of any contamination of, and for the maintenance, security and/or monitoring of the Premises or neighboring properties, that was caused or materially contributed to by Lessee, or pertaining to or involving any Hazardous Substance brought onto the Premises during the term of this Lease, by or for Lessee, or any third party. (d) Lessee Indemnification. Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold Lessor, its agents, employees, lenders and ground lessor, if any, harmless from and against any and all loss of rents and/or damages, liabilities, judgments, claims, expenses, penalties, and attorneys' and consultants' fees arising out of or involving any Hazardous Substance brought onto the Premises by or for Lessee, or any third party (provided, however, that Lessee shall have no liability under this Lease with respect to underground migration of any Hazardous Substance under the Premises from areas outside of the Project not caused or contributed to by Lessee). Lessee's obligations shall include, but not be limited to, the effects of any contamination or injury to person, property or the environment created or suffered by Lessee, and the cost of investigation, removal, remediation, restoration and/or abatement, and shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. No termination, cancellation or release agreement entered into by Lessor and Lessee shall release Lessee from its obligations under this Lease with respect to Hazardous Substances, unless specifically so agreed by Lessor in writing at the time of such agreement. (e) Lessor Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 8.7, Lessor and its successors and assigns shall indemnify, defend, reimburse and hold Lessee, its employees and lenders, harmless from and against any and all environmental damages, including the cost of remediation, which are suffered as a direct result of Hazardous Substances on the Premises prior to Lessee taking possession or which are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor, its agents or employees. Lessor's obligations, as and when required by the Applicable Requirements, shall include, but not be limited to, the cost of investigation, removal, remediation, restoration and/or abatement, and shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. (f) Investigations and Remediations. Lessor shall retain the responsibility and pay for any investigations or remediation measures required by governmental entities having jurisdiction with respect to the existence of Hazardous Substances on the Premises prior to the Lessee taking possession, unless such remediation measure is required as a result of Lessee's use (including "Alterations", as defined in paragraph 7.3(a) below) of the Premises, in which event Lessee shall be responsible for such payment. Lessee shall cooperate fully in any such activities at the request of Lessor, including allowing Lessor and Lessor's agents to have reasonable access to the Premises at reasonable times in order to carry out Lessor's investigative and remedial responsibilities. (g) Lessor Termination Option. If a Hazardous Substance Condition (see Paragraph 9.1(e)) occurs during the term of this Lease, unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which case Lessee shall make the investigation and remediation thereof required by the Applicable Requirements and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but subject to Lessor's rights under Paragraph 6.2(d) and Paragraph 13), Lessor may, at Lessor's option, either (i) investigate and remediate such Hazardous Substance Condition, if required, as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) if the estimated cost to remediate such condition exceeds 12 times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater, give written notice to Lessee, within 30 days after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such Hazardous Substance Condition, of Lessor's desire to terminate this Lease as of the date 60 days following the date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to give a termination notice, Lessee may, within 10 days thereafter, give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay the amount by which the cost of the remediation of such Hazardous Substance Condition exceeds an amount equal to 12 times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within 30 days following such commitment. In such event, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such remediation as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available. If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the required funds or assurance thereof within the time provided, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in Lessor's notice of termination. 3. Lessee's Compliance with Applicable Requirements . Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole expense, fully, diligently and in a timely manner, materially comply with all Applicable Requirements, the requirements of any applicable fire insurance underwriter or rating bureau, and the recommendations of Lessor's engineers and/or consultants which relate in any manner to the Premises, without regard to whether said Applicable Requirements are now in effect or become effective after the Start Date. Lessee shall, within 10 days after receipt of Lessor's written request, provide Lessor with copies of all permits and other documents, and other information evidencing Lessee's compliance with any Applicable Requirements specified by Lessor, and shall immediately upon receipt, notify Lessor in writing (with copies of any documents involved) of any threatened or actual claim, notice, citation, warning, complaint or report pertaining to or involving the failure of Lessee or the Premises to comply with any Applicable Requirements. Likewise, Lessee shall immediately give written notice to Lessor of: (i) any water damage to the Premises and any suspected seepage, pooling, dampness or other condition conducive to the production of mold; or (ii) any mustiness or other odors that might indicate the presence of mold in the Premises. 4. Inspection; Compliance . Lessor and Lessor's " Lender " (as defined in Paragraph 30) and consultants authorized by Lessor shall have the right to enter into Premises at any time in the case of an emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times after reasonable notice, for the purpose of inspecting and/or testing the condition of the Premises and/or for verifying compliance by Lessee with this Lease. The cost of any such inspections shall be paid by Lessor, unless a violation of Applicable Requirements, or a Hazardous Substance Condition (see Paragraph 9.1(e)) is found to exist or be imminent, or the inspection is requested or ordered by a governmental authority. In such case, Lessee shall upon request reimburse Lessor for the cost of such inspection, so long as such inspection is reasonably related to the violation or contamination. In addition, Lessee shall provide copies of all relevant material safety data sheets (MSDS) to Lessor within 10 days of the receipt of a written request therefor. Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to allow such inspections or testing will expose Lessor to risks and potentially cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, should the Lessee fail to allow such inspections and/or testing in a timely fashion the Base Rent shall be automatically increased, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then existing Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater for the remainder to the Lease. The Parties agree that such increase in Base Rent represents fair and reasonable compensation for the additional risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee's failure to allow such inspection and/or testing. Such increase in Base Rent shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to such failure nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. 7. Maintenance; Repairs; Utility Installations; Trade Fixtures and Alterations. 1. Lessee's Obligations. (a) In General. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 2.2 (Condition), 2.3 (Compliance), 6.3 (Lessee's Compliance with Applicable Requirements), 7.2 (Lessor's Obligations), 9 (Damage or Destruction), and 14 (Condemnation), Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole expense, keep the Premises, Utility Installations (intended for AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE.

Lessee's exclusive use, no matter where located), and Alterations in good order, condition and repair (whether or not the portion of the Premises requiring repairs, or the means of repairing the same, are reasonably or readily accessible to Lessee, and whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Lessee's use, any prior use, the elements or the age of such portion of the Premises), including, but not limited to, all equipment or facilities, such as plumbing, HVAC equipment, electrical, lighting facilities, boilers, pressure vessels, fixtures, interior walls, interior surfaces of exterior walls, ceilings, floors, windows, doors, plate glass, and skylights but excluding any items which are the responsibility of Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 7.2. Lessee, in keeping the Premises in good order, condition and repair, shall exercise and perform good maintenance practices, specifically including the procurement and maintenance of the service contracts required by Paragraph 7.1(b) below. Lessee's obligations shall include restorations, replacements or renewals when necessary to keep the Premises and all improvements thereon or a part thereof in good order, condition and state of repair.

However, Lessor reserves the right, upon notice to Lessee, to procure and maintain any or all of such service contracts, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor, upon demand, for the cost thereof. (c) Failure to Perform. If Lessee fails to perform Lessee's obligations under this Paragraph 7.1, Lessor may enter upon the Premises after 10 days' prior written notice to Lessee (except in the case of an emergency, in which case no notice shall be required), perform such obligations on Lessee's behalf, and put the Premises in good order, condition and repair, and Lessee shall promptly pay to Lessor a sum equal to 115% of the cost thereof. (d) Replacement. Subject to Lessee's indemnification of Lessor as set forth in Paragraph 8.7 below, and without relieving Lessee of liability resulting from Lessee's failure to exercise and perform good maintenance practices, if an item described in Paragraph 7.1(b) cannot be repaired other than at a cost which is in excess of 50% of the cost of replacing such item, then such item shall be replaced by Lessor, and the cost thereof shall be prorated between the Parties and Lessee shall only be obligated to pay, each month during the remainder of the term of this Lease or any extension thereof, on the date on which Base Rent is due, an amount equal to the product of multiplying the cost of such replacement by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is 144 (i.e. 1/144th of the cost per month). Lessee shall pay Interest on the unamortized balance but may prepay its obligation at any time. 2. Lessor's Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2.2 (Condition), 2.3 (Compliance), 4.2 (Common Area Operating Expenses), 6 (Use), 7.1 (Lessee's Obligations), 9 (Damage or Destruction) and 14 (Condemnation), Lessor, subject to reimbursement pursuant to Paragraph 4.2, shall keep in good order, condition and repair the foundations, exterior walls, structural condition of interior bearing walls, exterior roof, fire sprinkler system, Common Area fire alarm and/or smoke detection systems, fire hydrants, parking lots, walkways, parkways, driveways, landscaping, fences, signs and utility systems serving the Common Areas and all parts thereof, as well as providing the services for which there is a Common Area Operating Expense pursuant to Paragraph 4.2.

(b) Consent. Lessee shall not make any Alterations or Utility Installations to the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. Lessee may, however, make non - structural Alterations or Utility Installations to the interior of the Premises (excluding the roof) without such consent but upon notice to Lessor, as long as they are not visible from the outside, do not involve puncturing, relocating or removing the roof or any existing walls, will not affect the electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and/or life safety systems, do not trigger the requirement for additional modifications and/or improvements to the Premises resulting from Applicable Requirements, such as compliance with Title 24, and the cumulative cost thereof during this Lease as extended does not exceed a sum equal to 3 months' Base Rent in the aggregate or a sum equal to one month's Base Rent in any one year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall not make or permit any roof penetrations and/or install anything on the roof without the prior written approval of Lessor. Lessor may, as a precondition to granting such approval, require Lessee to utilize a contractor chosen and/or approved by Lessor. Any Alterations or Utility Installations that Lessee shall desire to make and which require the consent of the Lessor shall be presented to Lessor in written form with detailed plans. Consent shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee's: (i) acquiring all applicable governmental permits, (ii) furnishing Lessor with copies of both the permits and the plans and specifications prior to commencement of the work, and (iii) compliance with all conditions of said permits and other Applicable Requirements in a prompt and expeditious manner. Any Alterations or Utility Installations shall be performed in a workmanlike manner with good and sufficient materials. Lessee shall promptly upon completion furnish Lessor with as - built plans and specifications. For work which costs an amount in excess of one month's Base Rent, Lessor may condition its consent upon Lessee providing a lien and completion bond in an amount equal to 150% of the estimated cost of such Alteration or Utility Installation and/or upon Lessee's posting an additional Security Deposit with Lessor. (c) Liens; Bonds . Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanic's or materialmen's lien against the Premises or any interest therein. Lessee shall give Lessor not less than 10 days notice prior to the commencement of any work in, on or about the Premises, and Lessor shall have the right to post notices of non - responsibility. If Lessee shall contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense defend and protect itself, Lessor and the Premises against the same and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof. If Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish a surety bond in an amount equal to 150% of the amount of such contested lien, claim or demand, indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same. If Lessor elects to participate in any such action, Lessee shall pay Lessor's attorneys' fees and costs. 4. Ownership; Removal; Surrender; and Restoration . (a) Ownership . Subject to Lessor's right to require removal or elect ownership as hereinafter provided, all Alterations and Utility Installations made by Lessee shall be the property of Lessee, but considered a part of the Premises. Lessor may, at any time, elect in writing to be the owner of all or any specified part of the Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. Unless otherwise instructed per paragraph 7.4(b) hereof, all Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations shall, at the expiration or termination of this Lease, become the property of Lessor and be surrendered by Lessee with the Premises. (b) Removal. By delivery to Lessee of written notice from Lessor not earlier than 90 and not later than 30 days prior to the end of the term of this Lease, Lessor may require that any or all Lessee Owned Alterations or Utility Installations be removed by the expiration or termination of this Lease. Lessor may require the removal at any time of all or any part of any Lessee Owned Alterations or Utility Installations made without the required consent. (c) Surrender; Restoration. Lessee shall surrender the Premises by the Expiration Date or any earlier termination date, with all of the improvements, parts and surfaces thereof broom clean and free of debris, and in good operating order, condition and state of repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. "Ordinary wear and tear" shall not include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by good maintenance practice. Notwithstanding the foregoing and the provisions of Paragraph 7.1(a), if the Lessee occupies the Premises for 12 months or less, then Lessee shall surrender the Premises in the same condition as delivered to Lessee on the Start Date with NO allowance for ordinary wear and tear. Lessee shall repair any damage occasioned by the installation, maintenance or removal of Trade Fixtures, Lessee owned Alterations and/or Utility Installations, furnishings, and equipment as well as the removal of any storage tank installed by or for Lessee. Lessee shall also remove from the Premises any and all Hazardous Substances brought onto the Premises by or for Lessee, or any third party (except Hazardous Substances which were deposited via underground migration from areas outside of the Premises) to the level specified in Applicable Requirements. Trade Fixtures shall remain the property of Lessee and shall be removed by Lessee. Any personal property of Lessee not removed on or before the Expiration Date or any earlier termination date shall be deemed to have been abandoned by Lessee and may be disposed of or retained by Lessor as Lessor may desire. The failure by Lessee to timely vacate the Premises pursuant to this Paragraph 7.4(c) without the express written consent of Lessor shall constitute a holdover under the provisions of Paragraph 26 below. 8. Insurance; Indemnity. 1. Payment of Premium Increases. (a) As used herein, the term " Insurance Cost Increase " is defined as any increase in the actual cost of the insurance applicable to the Building and/or the Project and required to be carried by Lessor, pursuant to Paragraphs 8.2(b), 8.3(a) and 8.3(b), over and above the Base Premium, as hereinafter defined, calculated on an annual basis. Insurance Cost Increase shall include, but not be limited to, requirements of the holder of a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises, Building and/or Project, increased valuation of the Premises, Building and/or Project, and/or a general premium rate increase. The term Insurance Cost Increase shall not, however, include any premium increases resulting from the nature of the occupancy of any other tenant of the Building. The " Base Premium " shall be the annual premium applicable to the 12 month period immediately preceding the Start Date. If, however, the Project was not insured for the entirety of such 12 month period, then the Base Premium shall be the lowest annual premium reasonably obtainable for the Required Insurance as of the Start Date, assuming the most nominal use possible of the Building. In no event, however, shall Lessee be responsible for any portion of the premium cost attributable to liability insurance coverage in excess of $2,000,000 procured under Paragraph 8.2(b). (b) Lessee shall pay any Insurance Cost Increase to Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 4.2. Premiums for policy periods commencing prior to, or extending beyond, the term of this Lease shall be prorated to coincide with the corresponding Start Date or Expiration Date. 1. Liability Insurance . (a) Carried by Lessee. Lessee shall obtain and keep in force a Commercial General Liability policy of insurance protecting Lessee and Lessor as an _ AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

additional insured against claims for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage based upon or arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be on an occurrence basis providing single limit coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence with an annual aggregate of not less than $2,000,000. Lessee shall add Lessor as an additional insured by means of an endorsement at least as broad as the Insurance Service Organization's "Additional Insured - Managers or Lessors of Premises" Endorsement. The policy shall not contain any intra - insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizations, but shall include coverage for liability assumed under this Lease as an " insured contract " for the performance of Lessee's indemnity obligations under this Lease. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Lessee nor relieve Lessee of any obligation hereunder. Lessee shall provide an endorsement on its liability policy(ies) which provides that its insurance shall be primary to and not contributory with any similar insurance carried by Lessor, whose insurance shall be considered excess insurance only. (b) Carried by Lessor . Lessor shall maintain liability insurance as described in Paragraph 8.2(a), in addition to, and not in lieu of, the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee. Lessee shall not be named as an additional insured therein. 3. Property Insurance - Building, Improvements and Rental Value . (a) Building and Improvements . Lessor shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policies of insurance in the name of Lessor, with loss payable to Lessor, any ground - lessor, and to any Lender insuring loss or damage to the Premises. The amount of such insurance shall be equal to the full insurable replacement cost of the Premises, as the same shall exist from time to time, or the amount required by any Lender, but in no event more than the commercially reasonable and available insurable value thereof. Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, and Lessee's personal property shall be insured by Lessee not by Lessor. If the coverage is available and commercially appropriate, such policy or policies shall insure against all risks of direct physical loss or damage (except the perils of flood and/or earthquake unless required by a Lender), including coverage for debris removal and the enforcement of any Applicable Requirements requiring the upgrading, demolition, reconstruction or replacement of any portion of the Premises as the result of a covered loss. Said policy or policies shall also contain an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, waiver of subrogation, and inflation guard protection causing an increase in the annual property insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the city nearest to where the Premises are located. If such insurance coverage has a deductible clause, the deductible amount shall not exceed $5,000 per occurrence. (b) Rental Value . Lessor shall also obtain and keep in force a policy or policies in the name of Lessor with loss payable to Lessor and any Lender, insuring the loss of the full Rent for one year with an extended period of indemnity for an additional 180 days (" Rental Value insurance "). Said insurance shall contain an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, and the amount of coverage shall be adjusted annually to reflect the projected Rent otherwise payable by Lessee, for the next 12 month period. (c) Adjacent Premises . Lessee shall pay for any increase in the premiums for the property insurance of the Building and for the Common Areas or other buildings in the Project if said increase is caused by Lessee's acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises. (d) Lessee's Improvements . Since Lessor is the Insuring Party, Lessor shall not be required to insure Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor under the terms of this Lease. 3. Lessee's Property; Business Interruption Insurance; Worker's Compensation Insurance . (a) Property Damage. Lessee shall obtain and maintain insurance coverage on all of Lessee's personal property, Trade Fixtures, and Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. Such insurance shall be full replacement cost coverage with a deductible not to exceed $1,000 per occurrence. The proceeds from any such insurance shall be used by Lessee for the replacement of personal property, Trade Fixtures and Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. (b) Business Interruption . Lessee shall obtain and maintain loss of income and extra expense insurance in amounts as will reimburse Lessee for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable to all perils commonly insured against by prudent lessees in the business of Lessee or attributable to prevention of access to the Premises as a result of such perils. (c) Worker's Compensation Insurance . Lessee shall obtain and maintain Worker's Compensation Insurance in such amount as may be required by Applicable Requirements. Such policy shall include a 'Waiver of Subrogation' endorsement. Lessee shall provide Lessor with a copy of such endorsement along with the certificate of insurance or copy of the policy required by paragraph 8.5. (d) No Representation of Adequate Coverage . Lessor makes no representation that the limits or forms of coverage of insurance specified herein are adequate to cover Lessee's property, business operations or obligations under this Lease. 4. Insurance Policies. Insurance required herein shall be by companies maintaining during the policy term a "General Policyholders Rating" of at least A - , VII, as set forth in the most current issue of "Best's Insurance Guide", or such other rating as may be required by a Lender. Lessee shall not do or permit to be done anything which invalidates the required insurance policies. Lessee shall, prior to the Start Date, deliver to Lessor certified copies of policies of such insurance or certificates with copies of the required endorsements evidencing the existence and amounts of the required insurance. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to modification except after 30 days prior written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall, at least 10 days prior to the expiration of such policies, furnish Lessor with evidence of renewals or "insurance binders" evidencing renewal thereof, or Lessor may increase Lessor's liability insurance coverage and charge the cost thereof to Lessee, which amount shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor upon demand. Such policies shall be for a term of at least one year, or the length of the remaining term of this Lease, whichever is less. If either Party shall fail to procure and maintain the insurance required to be carried by it, the other Party may, but shall not be required to, procure and maintain the same. 5. Waiver of Subrogation . Without affecting any other rights or remedies, Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other, and waive their entire right to recover damages against the other, for loss of or damage to its property arising out of or incident to the perils required to be insured against herein. The effect of such releases and waivers is not limited by the amount of insurance carried or required, or by any deductibles applicable hereto. The Parties agree to have their respective property damage insurance carriers waive any right to subrogation that such companies may have against Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, so long as the insurance is not invalidated thereby. 6. Indemnity . Except for Lessor's gross negligence or willful misconduct, Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the Premises, Lessor and its agents, Lessor's master or ground lessor, partners and Lenders, from and against any and all claims, loss of rents and/or damages, liens, judgments, penalties, attorneys' and consultants' fees, expenses and/or liabilities arising out of, involving, or in connection with, a Breach of the Lease by Lessee and/or the use and/or occupancy of the Premises and/or Project by Lessee and/or by Lessee's employees, contractors or invitees. If any action or proceeding is brought against Lessor by reason of any of the foregoing matters, Lessee shall upon notice defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in such defense. Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in order to be defended or indemnified. 7. Exemption of Lessor and its Agents from Liability . Notwithstanding the negligence or breach of this Lease by Lessor or its agents, neither Lessor nor its agents shall be liable under any circumstances for: (i) injury or damage to the person or goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, contractors, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, indoor air quality, the presence of mold or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, fire sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, HVAC or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether the said injury or damage results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Building, or from other sources or places; (ii) any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant of Lessor or from the failure of Lessor or its agents to enforce the provisions of any other lease in the Project; or (iii) injury to Lessee's business or for any loss of income or profit therefrom. Instead, it is intended that Lessee's sole recourse in the event of such damages or injury be to file a claim on the insurance policy(ies) that Lessee is required to maintain pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 8. 9. Failure to Provide Insurance . Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to obtain or maintain the insurance required herein will expose Lessor to risks and potentially cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, for any month or portion thereof that Lessee does not maintain the required insurance and/or does not provide Lessor with the required binders or certificates evidencing the existence of the required insurance, the Base Rent shall be automatically increased, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then existing Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater. The parties agree that such increase in Base Rent represents fair and reasonable compensation for the additional risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee's failure to maintain the required insurance. Such increase in Base Rent shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to the failure to maintain such insurance, prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder, nor relieve Lessee of its obligation to maintain the insurance specified in this Lease. 9. Damage or Destruction . 1. Definitions . (a) " Premises Partial Damage " shall mean damage or destruction to the improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, which can reasonably be repaired in 3 months or less from the date of the damage or destruction, and the cost thereof does not exceed a sum equal to 6 month's Base Rent . Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing within 3 0 days from the date of the damage or destruction as to whether or not the damage is Partial or Total . (b) " Premises Total Destruction " shall mean damage or destruction to the improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures, which cannot reasonably be repaired in 3 months or less from the date of the damage or destruction and/or the cost thereof exceeds a sum equal to 6 month's Base Rent. Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing within 30 days from the date of the damage or destruction as to whether or not the damage is Partial or Total. (c) " Insured Loss " shall mean damage or destruction to improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures, which was caused by an event required to be covered by the insurance described in Paragraph 8.3(a), irrespective of any deductible amounts or AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE.

coverage limits involved. (d) " Replacement Cost " shall mean the cost to repair or rebuild the improvements owned by Lessor at the time of the occurrence to their condition existing immediately prior thereto, including demolition, debris removal and upgrading required by the operation of Applicable Requirements, and without deduction for depreciation. (e) " Hazardous Substance Condition " shall mean the occurrence or discovery of a condition involving the presence of, or a contamination by, a Hazardous Substance, in, on, or under the Premises which requires restoration. 2. Partial Damage - Insured Loss . If a Premises Partial Damage that is an Insured Loss occurs, then Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense, repair such damage (but not Lessee's Trade Fixtures or Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations) as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; provided, however, that Lessee shall, at Lessor's election, make the repair of any damage or destruction the total cost to repair of which is $10,000 or less, and, in such event, Lessor shall make any applicable insurance proceeds available to Lessee on a reasonable basis for that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the required insurance was not in force or the insurance proceeds are not sufficient to effect such repair, the Insuring Party shall promptly contribute the shortage in proceeds as and when required to complete said repairs. In the event, however, such shortage was due to the fact that, by reason of the unique nature of the improvements, full Replacement Cost insurance coverage was not commercially reasonable and available, Lessor shall have no obligation to pay for the shortage in insurance proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises unless Lessee provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate assurance thereof, within 10 days following receipt of written notice of such shortage and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or adequate assurance thereof within said 10 day period, the party responsible for making the repairs shall complete them as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. If such funds or assurance are not received, Lessor may nevertheless elect by written notice to Lessee within 10 days thereafter to: (i) make such restoration and repair as is commercially reasonable with Lessor paying any shortage in proceeds, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, or (ii) have this Lease terminate 30 days thereafter. Lessee shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any funds contributed by Lessee to repair any such damage or destruction. Premises Partial Damage due to flood or earthquake shall be subject to Paragraph 9.3, notwithstanding that there may be some insurance coverage, but the net proceeds of any such insurance shall be made available for the repairs if made by either Party. 3. Partial Damage - Uninsured Loss . If a Premises Partial Damage that is not an Insured Loss occurs, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee's expense), Lessor may either: (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense (subject to reimbursement pursuant to Paragraph 4.2), in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Lessee within 30 days after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such damage. Such termination shall be effective 60 days following the date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within 10 days after receipt of the termination notice to give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay for the repair of such damage without reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within 30 days after making such commitment. In such event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available. If Lessee does not make the required commitment, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in the termination notice. 4. Total Destruction. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if a Premises Total Destruction occurs, this Lease shall terminate 60 days following such Destruction. If the damage or destruction was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to recover Lessor's damages from Lessee, except as provided in Paragraph 8.6. 5. Damage Near End of Term . If at any time during the last 6 months of this Lease there is damage for which the cost to repair exceeds one month's Base Rent, whether or not an Insured Loss, Lessor may terminate this Lease effective 60 days following the date of occurrence of such damage by giving a written termination notice to Lessee within 30 days after the date of occurrence of such damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lessee at that time has an exercisable option to extend this Lease or to purchase the Premises, then Lessee may preserve this Lease by (a) exercising such option and (b) providing Lessor with any shortage in insurance proceeds (or adequate assurance thereof) needed to make the repairs on or before the earlier of (i) the date which is 10 days after Lessee's receipt of Lessor's written notice purporting to terminate this Lease, or (ii) the day prior to the date upon which such option expires. If Lessee duly exercises such option during such period and provides Lessor with funds (or adequate assurance thereof) to cover any shortage in insurance proceeds, Lessor shall, at Lessor's commercially reasonable expense, repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If Lessee fails to exercise such option and provide such funds or assurance during such period, then this Lease shall terminate on the date specified in the termination notice and Lessee's option shall be extinguished. 6. Abatement of Rent; Lessee's Remedies . (a) Abatement . In the event of Premises Partial Damage or Premises Total Destruction or a Hazardous Substance Condition for which Lessee is not responsible under this Lease, the Rent payable by Lessee for the period required for the repair, remediation or restoration of such damage shall be abated in proportion to the degree to which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired, but not to exceed the proceeds received from the Rental Value insurance. All other obligations of Lessee hereunder shall be performed by Lessee, and Lessor shall have no liability for any such damage, destruction, remediation, repair or restoration except as provided herein. (b) Remedies . If Lessor is obligated to repair or restore the Premises and does not commence, in a substantial and meaningful way, such repair or restoration within 90 days after such obligation shall accrue, Lessee may, at any time prior to the commencement of such repair or restoration, give written notice to Lessor and to any Lenders of which Lessee has actual notice, of Lessee's election to terminate this Lease on a date not less than 60 days following the giving of such notice. If Lessee gives such notice and such repair or restoration is not commenced within 30 days thereafter, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in said notice. If the repair or restoration is commenced within such 30 days, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. " Commence " shall mean either the unconditional authorization of the preparation of the required plans, or the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever first occurs. 7. Termination ; Advance Payments . Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to Paragraph 6 . 2 (g) or Paragraph 9 , an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning advance Base Rent and any other advance payments made by Lessee to Lessor . Lessor shall, in addition, return to Lessee so much of Lessee's Security Deposit as has not been, or is not then required to be, used by Lessor . 10. Real Property Taxes. 1. Definitions. (a) " Real Property Taxes ." As used herein, the term " Real Property Taxes " shall include any form of assessment; real estate, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, or rental levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income or estate taxes); improvement bond; and/or license fee imposed upon or levied against any legal or equitable interest of Lessor in the Project, Lessor's right to other income therefrom, and/or Lessor's business of leasing, by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax and where the funds are generated with reference to the Project address. The term "Real Property Taxes" shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge, or any increase therein: (i) imposed by reason of events occurring during the term of this Lease, including but not limited to, a change in the ownership of the Project; (ii) a change in the improvements thereon; and/or (iii) levied or assessed on machinery or equipment provided by Lessor to Lessee pursuant to this Lease. (b) " Base Real Property Taxes ." As used herein, the term " Base Real Property Taxes " shall be the amount of Real Property Taxes, which are assessed against the Project, during the entire calendar year in which the Lease is executed. 2. Payment of Taxes . Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 10.3, Lessor shall pay the Real Property Taxes applicable to the Project, and said payments shall be included in the calculation of Common Area Operating Expenses in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 4.2. 3. Additional Improvements . Common Area Operating Expenses shall not include Real Property Taxes specified in the tax assessor's records and work sheets as being caused by additional improvements placed upon the Project by other tenants or by Lessor for the exclusive enjoyment of such other Tenants. Notwithstanding Paragraph 10.2 hereof, Lessee shall, however, pay to Lessor at the time Common Area Operating Expenses are payable under Paragraph 4.2, the entirety of any increase in Real Property Taxes if assessed solely by reason of Alterations, Trade Fixtures or Utility Installations placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request or by reason of any alterations or improvements to the Premises made by Lessor subsequent to the execution of this Lease by the Parties. 4. Joint Assessment . If the Building is not separately assessed, Real Property Taxes allocated to the Building shall be an equitable proportion of the Real Property Taxes for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel assessed, such proportion to be determined by Lessor from the respective valuations assigned in the assessor's work sheets or such other information as may be reasonably available. Lessor's reasonable determination thereof, in good faith, shall be conclusive. 5. Personal Property Taxes . Lessee shall pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes assessed against and levied upon Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all personal property of Lessee contained in the Premises. When possible, Lessee shall cause its Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of Lessor. If any of Lessee's said property shall be assessed with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable to Lessee's property within 10 days after receipt of a written statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property. 11. Utilities and Services. 1. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, trash disposal and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together with any taxes thereon. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 4.2, if at any time in Lessor's sole judgment, Lessor determines that Lessee is using a disproportionate AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

amount of water, electricity or other commonly metered utilities, or that Lessee is generating such a large volume of trash as to require an increase in the size of the trash receptacle and/or an increase in the number of times per month that it is emptied, then Lessor may increase Lessee's Base Rent by an amount equal to such increased costs. There shall be no abatement of Rent and Lessor shall not be liable in any respect whatsoever for the inadequacy, stoppage, interruption or discontinuance of any utility or service due to riot, strike, labor dispute, breakdown, accident, repair or other cause beyond Lessor's reasonable control or in cooperation with governmental request or directions. 11.2 Within fifteen days of Lessor's written request, Lessee agrees to deliver to Lessor such information, documents and/or authorization as Lessor needs in order for Lessor to comply with new or existing Applicable Requirements relating to commercial building energy usage, ratings, and/or the reporting thereof. 12. Assignment and Subletting. 1. Lessor's Consent Required. (a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage or encumber (collectively, " assign or assignment ") or sublet all or any part of Lessee's interest in this Lease or in the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. (b) Unless Lessee is a corporation and its stock is publicly traded on a national stock exchange, a change in the control of Lessee shall constitute an assignment requiring consent. The transfer, on a cumulative basis, of 25% or more of the voting control of Lessee shall constitute a change in control for this purpose. (c) The involvement of Lessee or its assets in any transaction, or series of transactions (by way of merger, sale, acquisition, financing, transfer, leveraged buyout or otherwise), whether or not a formal assignment or hypothecation of this Lease or Lessee's assets occurs, which results or will result in a reduction of the Net Worth of Lessee by an amount greater than 25% of such Net Worth as it was represented at the time of the execution of this Lease or at the time of the most recent assignment to which Lessor has consented, or as it exists immediately prior to said transaction or transactions constituting such reduction, whichever was or is greater, shall be considered an assignment of this Lease to which Lessor may withhold its consent. " Net Worth of Lessee " shall mean the net worth of Lessee (excluding any guarantors) established under generally accepted accounting principles. (d) An assignment or subletting without consent shall, at Lessor's option, be a Default curable after notice per Paragraph 13.1(d), or a non - curable Breach without the necessity of any notice and grace period. If Lessor elects to treat such unapproved assignment or subletting as a non - curable Breach, Lessor may either: (i) terminate this Lease, or (ii) upon 30 days written notice, increase the monthly Base Rent to 110% of the Base Rent then in effect. Further, in the event of such Breach and rental adjustment, (i) the purchase price of any option to purchase the Premises held by Lessee shall be subject to similar adjustment to 110% of the price previously in effect, and (ii) all fixed and non - fixed rental adjustments scheduled during the remainder of the Lease term shall be increased to 110% of the scheduled adjusted rent. (e) Lessee's remedy for any breach of Paragraph 12.1 by Lessor shall be limited to compensatory damages and/or injunctive relief. (f) Lessor may reasonably withhold consent to a proposed assignment or subletting if Lessee is in Default at the time consent is requested. (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, allowing a de minimis portion of the Premises, i.e. 20 square feet or less, to be used by a third party vendor in connection with the installation of a vending machine or payphone shall not constitute a subletting. 1. Terms and Conditions Applicable to Assignment and Subletting . (a) Regardless of Lessor's consent, no assignment or subletting shall: (i) be effective without the express written assumption by such assignee or sublessee of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, (ii) release Lessee of any obligations hereunder, or (iii) alter the primary liability of Lessee for the payment of Rent or for the performance of any other obligations to be performed by Lessee. (b) Lessor may accept Rent or performance of Lessee's obligations from any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval of an assignment. Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such assignment nor the acceptance of Rent or performance shall constitute a waiver or estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for Lessee's Default or Breach. (c) Lessor's consent to any assignment or subletting shall not constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. (d) In the event of any Default or Breach by Lessee, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any Guarantors or anyone else responsible for the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, including any assignee or sublessee, without first exhausting Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity responsible therefor to Lessor, or any security held by Lessor. (e) Each request for consent to an assignment or subletting shall be in writing, accompanied by information relevant to Lessor's determination as to the financial and operational responsibility and appropriateness of the proposed assignee or sublessee, including but not limited to the intended use and/or required modification of the Premises, if any, together with a fee of $500 as consideration for Lessor's considering and processing said request. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with such other or additional information and/or documentation as may be reasonably requested. (See also Paragraph 36) (f) Any assignee of, or sublessee under, this Lease shall, by reason of accepting such assignment, entering into such sublease, or entering into possession of the Premises or any portion thereof, be deemed to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with each and every term, covenant, condition and obligation herein to be observed or performed by Lessee during the term of said assignment or sublease, other than such obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent with provisions of an assignment or sublease to which Lessor has specifically consented to in writing. (g) Lessor's consent to any assignment or subletting shall not transfer to the assignee or sublessee any Option granted to the original Lessee by this Lease unless such transfer is specifically consented to by Lessor in writing. (See Paragraph 39.2) 1. Additional Terms and Conditions Applicable to Subletting . The following terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Lessee of all or any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein: (a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of Lessee's interest in all Rent payable on any sublease, and Lessor may collect such Rent and apply same toward Lessee's obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that until a Breach shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligations, Lessee may collect said Rent. In the event that the amount collected by Lessor exceeds Lessee's then outstanding obligations any such excess shall be refunded to Lessee. Lessor shall not, by reason of the foregoing or any assignment of such sublease, nor by reason of the collection of Rent, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligations to such sublessee. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor stating that a Breach exists in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, to pay to Lessor all Rent due and to become due under the sublease. Sublessee shall rely upon any such notice from Lessor and shall pay all Rents to Lessor without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such Breach exists, notwithstanding any claim from Lessee to the contrary. (b) In the event of a Breach by Lessee, Lessor may, at its option, require sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which event Lessor shall undertake the obligations of the sublessor under such sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to the expiration of such sublease; provided, however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit paid by such sublessee to such sublessor or for any prior Defaults or Breaches of such sublessor. (c) Any matter requiring the consent of the sublessor under a sublease shall also require the consent of Lessor. (d) No sublessee shall further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. (e) Lessor shall deliver a copy of any notice of Default or Breach by Lessee to the sublessee, who shall have the right to cure the Default of Lessee within the grace period, if any, specified in such notice . The sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against Lessee for any such Defaults cured by the sublessee . 12. Default; Breach; Remedies. 1. Default; Breach . A " Default " is defined as a failure by the Lessee to comply with or perform any of the terms, covenants, conditions or Rules and Regulations under this Lease. A " Breach " is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the following Defaults, and the failure of Lessee to cure such Default within any applicable grace period: (a) The abandonment of the Premises; the vacating of the Premises prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease without providing a commercially reasonable level of security, or where the coverage of the property insurance described in Paragraph 8.3 is jeopardized as a result thereof, or without providing reasonable assurances to minimize potential vandalism; or failure to deliver to Lessor exclusive possession of the entire Premises in accordance herewith prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease. (b) The failure of Lessee to (i) make any payment of Rent or any Security Deposit required to be made by Lessee hereunder, whether to Lessor or to a third party, when due; (ii) to provide reasonable evidence of insurance or surety bond; or (iii) to fulfill any obligation under this Lease which endangers or threatens life or property, where such failure continues for a period of 3 business days following written notice to Lessee. THE ACCEPTANCE BY LESSOR OF A PARTIAL PAYMENT OF RENT OR SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF ANY OF LESSOR'S RIGHTS, INCLUDING LESSOR'S RIGHT TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE PREMISES. (c) The failure of Lessee to allow Lessor and/or its agents access to the Premises or the commission of waste, act or acts constituting public or private nuisance, and/or an illegal activity on the Premises by Lessee, where such actions continue for a period of 3 business days following written notice to Lessee. In the event that Lessee commits waste, a nuisance or an illegal activity a second time then, the Lessor may elect to treat such conduct as a non - curable Breach rather than a Default. (d) The failure by Lessee to provide (i) reasonable written evidence of compliance with Applicable Requirements, (ii) the service contracts, (iii) the rescission of an unauthorized assignment or subletting, (iv) an Estoppel Certificate or financial statements, (v) a requested subordination, (vi) evidence concerning any guaranty and/or Guarantor, (vii) any document requested under Paragraph 41, (viii) material safety data sheets (MSDS), or (ix) any other documentation or AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved. MTG - 24.40, Revised 10 - 22 - 2020 INITIALS Last Edited: 9/11/2024 9:34 AM Page 8 of 14

![](ex10-7_009.jpg)

information which Lessor may reasonably require of Lessee under the terms of this Lease, where any such failure continues for a period of 10 days following written notice to Lessee. (e) A Default by Lessee as to the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or of the rules adopted under Paragraph 2.9 hereof, other than those described in subparagraphs 13.1(a), (b), (c) or (d), above, where such Default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee's Default is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its cure, then it shall not be deemed to be a Breach if Lessee commences such cure within said 30 day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion. (f) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the making of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) becoming a " debtor " as defined in 11 U.S.C. Α 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within 60 days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within 30 days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within 30 days; provided, however, in the event that any provision of this subparagraph is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect, and not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. (g) The discovery that any financial statement of Lessee or of any Guarantor given to Lessor was materially false. (h) If the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease is guaranteed: (i) the death of a Guarantor, (ii) the termination of a Guarantor's liability with respect to this Lease other than in accordance with the terms of such guaranty, (iii) a Guarantor's becoming insolvent or the subject of a bankruptcy filing, (iv) a Guarantor's refusal to honor the guaranty, or (v) a Guarantor's breach of its guaranty obligation on an anticipatory basis, and Lessee's failure, within 60 days following written notice of any such event, to provide written alternative assurance or security, which, when coupled with the then existing resources of Lessee, equals or exceeds the combined financial resources of Lessee and the Guarantors that existed at the time of execution of this Lease. 2. Remedies . If Lessee fails to perform any of its affirmative duties or obligations, within 10 days after written notice (or in case of an emergency, without notice), Lessor may, at its option, perform such duty or obligation on Lessee's behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits or approvals. Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to 115% of the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in such performance upon receipt of an invoice therefor. In the event of a Breach, Lessor may, with or without further notice or demand, and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such Breach: (a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee: (i) the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, and that portion of any leasing commission paid by Lessor in connection with this Lease applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. The worth at the time of award of the amount referred to in provision (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of the District within which the Premises are located at the time of award plus one percent. Efforts by Lessor to mitigate damages caused by Lessee's Breach of this Lease shall not waive Lessor's right to recover any damages to which Lessor is otherwise entitled. If termination of this Lease is obtained through the provisional remedy of unlawful detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such proceeding any unpaid Rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Lessor may reserve the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate suit. If a notice and grace period required under Paragraph 13.1 was not previously given, a notice to pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit given to Lessee under the unlawful detainer statute shall also constitute the notice required by Paragraph 13.1. In such case, the applicable grace period required by Paragraph 13.1 and the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently, and the failure of Lessee to cure the Default within the greater of the two such grace periods shall constitute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease entitling Lessor to the remedies provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute. (b) Continue the Lease and Lessee's right to possession and recover the Rent as it becomes due, in which event Lessee may sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet, and/or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor's interests, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee's right to possession. (c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are located. The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Lessee's right to possession shall not relieve Lessee from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee's occupancy of the Premises. 3. Inducement Recapture. Any agreement for free or abated rent or other charges, the cost of tenant improvements for Lessee paid for or performed by Lessor, or for the giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus, inducement or consideration for Lessee's entering into this Lease, all of which concessions are hereinafter referred to as " Inducement Provisions ," shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee's full and faithful performance of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. Upon Breach of this Lease by Lessee, any such Inducement Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted from this Lease and of no further force or effect, and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement or consideration theretofore abated, given or paid by Lessor under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent or the cure of the Breach which initiated the operation of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the provisions of this paragraph unless specifically so stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such acceptance. 4. Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee of Rent will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Lessor by any Lender. Accordingly, if any Rent shall not be received by Lessor within 5 days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall immediately pay to Lessor a one - time late charge equal to 10% of each such overdue amount or $100, whichever is greater. The Parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of such late payment. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for 3 consecutive installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor's option, become due and payable quarterly in advance. 5. Interest. Any monetary payment due Lessor hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor, when due shall bear interest from the 31st day after it was due. The interest (" Interest ") charged shall be computed at the rate of 10% per annum but shall not exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Interest is payable in addition to the potential late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4. 6. Breach by Lessor. (a) Notice of Breach. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable time to perform an obligation required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph, a reasonable time shall in no event be less than 30 days after receipt by Lessor, and any Lender whose name and address shall have been furnished to Lessee in writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying wherein such obligation of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach if performance is commenced within such 30 day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion. (b) Performance by Lessee on Behalf of Lessor . In the event that neither Lessor nor Lender cures said breach within 30 days after receipt of said notice, or if having commenced said cure they do not diligently pursue it to completion, then Lessee may elect to cure said breach at Lessee's expense and offset from Rent the actual and reasonable cost to perform such cure, provided, however, that such offset shall not exceed an amount equal to the greater of one month's Base Rent or the Security Deposit, reserving Lessee's right to reimbursement from Lessor for any such expense in excess of such offset. Lessee shall document the cost of said cure and supply said documentation to Lessor. 14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (collectively " Condemnation "), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than 10% of the floor area of the Unit, or more than 25% of the parking spaces is taken by Condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing within 10 days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within 10 days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the Base Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in utility of the Premises caused by such Condemnation. Condemnation awards and/or payments shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold, the value of the part taken, or for severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any compensation paid by the condemnor for Lessee's relocation expenses, loss of business goodwill and/or Trade Fixtures, without regard to whether or not this Lease is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph. All Alterations and Utility Installations made to the Premises by Lessee, for purposes of Condemnation only, shall be considered the property of the Lessee and Lessee shall be entitled to any and all compensation which is payable therefor. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of the Condemnation, Lessor shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by such AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

Condemnation. 15. Brokerage Fees . 1. Additional Commission . In addition to the payments owed pursuant to Paragraph 1.10 above, Lessor agrees that: (a) if Lessee exercises any Option, (b) if Lessee or anyone affiliated with Lessee acquires from Lessor any rights to the Premises or other premises owned by Lessor and located within the Project, (c) if Lessee remains in possession of the Premises, with the consent of Lessor, after the expiration of this Lease, or (d) if Base Rent is increased, whether by agreement or operation of an escalation clause herein, then, Lessor shall pay Brokers a fee in accordance with the fee schedule of the Brokers in effect at the time the Lease was executed. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to supersede the provisions of any earlier agreement to the contrary . 2. Assumption of Obligations . Any buyer or transferee of Lessor's interest in this Lease shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor's obligation hereunder. Brokers shall be third party beneficiaries of the provisions of Paragraphs 1.10, 15, 22 and 31. If Lessor fails to pay to Brokers any amounts due as and for brokerage fees pertaining to this Lease when due, then such amounts shall accrue Interest. In addition, if Lessor fails to pay any amounts to Lessee's Broker when due, Lessee's Broker may send written notice to Lessor and Lessee of such failure and if Lessor fails to pay such amounts within 10 days after said notice, Lessee shall pay said monies to its Broker and offset such amounts against Rent. In addition, Lessee's Broker shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of any commission agreement entered into by and/or between Lessor and Lessor's Broker for the limited purpose of collecting any brokerage fee owed. 3. Representations and Indemnities of Broker Relationships . Lessee and Lessor each represent and warrant to the other that it has had no dealings with any person, firm, broker, agent or finder (other than the Brokers and Agents, if any) in connection with this Lease, and that no one other than said named Brokers and Agents is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in connection herewith. Lessee and Lessor do each hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or actions of the indemnifying Party, including any costs, expenses, attorneys' fees reasonably incurred with respect thereto . 16. Estoppel Certificates. (a) Each Party (as " Responding Party ") shall within 10 days after written notice from the other Party (the " Requesting Party ") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Requesting Party a statement in writing in form similar to the then most current " Estoppel Certificate " form published by AIR CRE, plus such additional information, confirmation and/or statements as may be reasonably requested by the Requesting Party. (b) If the Responding Party shall fail to execute or deliver the Estoppel Certificate within such 10 day period, the Requesting Party may execute an Estoppel Certificate stating that: (i) the Lease is in full force and effect without modification except as may be represented by the Requesting Party, (ii) there are no uncured defaults in the Requesting Party's performance, and (iii) if Lessor is the Requesting Party, not more than one month's rent has been paid in advance. Prospective purchasers and encumbrancers may rely upon the Requesting Party's Estoppel Certificate, and the Responding Party shall be estopped from denying the truth of the facts contained in said Certificate. In addition, Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to provide such an Estoppel Certificate will expose Lessor to risks and potentially cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, should the Lessee fail to execute and/or deliver a requested Estoppel Certificate in a timely fashion the monthly Base Rent shall be automatically increased, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then existing Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater for remainder of the Lease. The Parties agree that such increase in Base Rent represents fair and reasonable compensation for the additional risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee's failure to provide the Estoppel Certificate. Such increase in Base Rent shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to the failure to provide the Estoppel Certificate nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. (c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Premises, or any part thereof, Lessee and all Guarantors shall within 10 days after written notice from Lessor deliver to any potential lender or purchaser designated by Lessor such financial statements as may be reasonably required by such lender or purchaser, including but not limited to Lessee's financial statements for the past 3 years. All such financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth. 17. Definition of Lessor. The term " Lessor " as used herein shall mean the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title to the Premises, or, if this is a sublease, of the Lessee's interest in the prior lease. In the event of a transfer of Lessor's title or interest in the Premises or this Lease, Lessor shall deliver to the transferee or assignee (in cash or by credit) any unused Security Deposit held by Lessor. Upon such transfer or assignment and delivery of the Security Deposit, as aforesaid, the prior Lessor shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the obligations and/or covenants under this Lease thereafter to be performed by the Lessor. Subject to the foregoing, the obligations and/or covenants in this Lease to be performed by the Lessor shall be binding only upon the Lessor as hereinabove defined. 18. Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the validity of any other provision hereof. 19. Days. Unless otherwise specifically indicated to the contrary, the word " days " as used in this Lease shall mean and refer to calendar days. 20. Limitation on Liability. The obligations of Lessor under this Lease shall not constitute personal obligations of Lessor, or its partners, members, directors, officers or shareholders, and Lessee shall look to the Premises, and to no other assets of Lessor, for the satisfaction of any liability of Lessor with respect to this Lease, and shall not seek recourse against Lessor's partners, members, directors, officers or shareholders, or any of their personal assets for such satisfaction. 21. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of all obligations to be performed or observed by the Parties under this Lease. 22. No Prior or Other Agreements; Broker Disclaimer . This Lease contains all agreements between the Parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein, and no other prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding shall be effective. Lessor and Lessee each represents and warrants to the Brokers that it has made, and is relying solely upon, its own investigation as to the nature, quality, character and financial responsibility of the other Party to this Lease and as to the use, nature, quality and character of the Premises. Brokers have no responsibility with respect thereto or with respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. 23. Notices. 1. Notice Requirements . All notices required or permitted by this Lease or applicable law shall be in writing and may be delivered in person (by hand or by courier) or may be sent by regular, certified or registered mail or U.S. Postal Service Express Mail, with postage prepaid, or by facsimile transmission, or by email, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if served in a manner specified in this Paragraph 23. The addresses noted adjacent to a Party's signature on this Lease shall be that Party's address for delivery or mailing of notices. Either Party may by written notice to the other specify a different address for notice, except that upon Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute Lessee's address for notice. A copy of all notices to Lessor shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate in writing. 2. Date of Notice . Any notice sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown on the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon. If sent by regular mail the notice shall be deemed given 72 hours after the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage prepaid. Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or overnight courier that guarantees next day delivery shall be deemed given 24 hours after delivery of the same to the Postal Service or courier. Notices delivered by hand, or transmitted by facsimile transmission or by email shall be deemed delivered upon actual receipt. If notice is received on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, it shall be deemed received on the next business day. 3. Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to exercise any Options (see paragraph 39), the Notice must be sent by Certified Mail (return receipt requested), Express Mail (signature required), courier (signature required) or some other methodology that provides a receipt establishing the date the notice was received by the Lessor. 24. Waivers. (a) No waiver by Lessor of the Default or Breach of any term, covenant or condition hereof by Lessee, shall be deemed a waiver of any other term, covenant or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Default or Breach by Lessee of the same or of any other term, covenant or condition hereof. Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any subsequent or similar act by Lessee, or be construed as the basis of an estoppel to enforce the provision or provisions of this Lease requiring such consent. (b) The acceptance of Rent by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any Default or Breach by Lessee. Any payment by Lessee may be accepted by Lessor on account of monies or damages due Lessor, notwithstanding any qualifying statements or conditions made by Lessee in connection therewith, which such statements and/or conditions shall be of no force or effect whatsoever unless specifically agreed to in writing by Lessor at or before the time of deposit of such payment. (c) THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE TERMS OF THIS LEASE SHALL GOVERN WITH REGARD TO ALL MATTERS RELATED THERETO AND HEREBY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH STATUTE IS INCONSISTENT WITH THIS LEASE. 25. Disclosures Regarding the Nature of a Real Estate Agency Relationship. (a) When entering into a discussion with a real estate agent regarding a real estate transaction, a Lessor or Lessee should from the outset understand what type of agency relationship or representation it has with the agent or agents in the transaction. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge being advised by the Brokers in this transaction, as follows: (i) Lessor's Agent . A Lessor's agent under a listing agreement with the Lessor acts as the agent for the Lessor only. A Lessor's agent or subagent has the AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

following affirmative obligations: To the Lessor : A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessor. To the Lessee and the Lessor : (a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent's duties. (b) A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. (c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. (ii) Lessee's Agent . An agent can agree to act as agent for the Lessee only. In these situations, the agent is not the Lessor's agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensation for services rendered, either in full or in part from the Lessor. An agent acting only for a Lessee has the following affirmative obligations. To the Lessee : A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessee. To the Lessee and the Lessor : (a) Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent's duties. (b) A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. (c) A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. (iii) Agent Representing Both Lessor and Lessee . A real estate agent, either acting directly or through one or more associate licensees, can legally be the agent of both the Lessor and the Lessee in a transaction, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Lessor and the Lessee. In a dual agency situation, the agent has the following affirmative obligations to both the Lessor and the Lessee: (a) A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either Lessor or the Lessee. (b) Other duties to the Lessor and the Lessee as stated above in subparagraphs (i) or (ii). In representing both Lessor and Lessee, the agent may not, without the express permission of the respective Party, disclose to the other Party confidential information, including, but not limited to, facts relating to either Lessee's or Lessor's financial position, motivations, bargaining position, or other personal information that may impact rent, including Lessor's willingness to accept a rent less than the listing rent or Lessee's willingness to pay rent greater than the rent offered. The above duties of the agent in a real estate transaction do not relieve a Lessor or Lessee from the responsibility to protect their own interests. Lessor and Lessee should carefully read all agreements to assure that they adequately express their understanding of the transaction. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advise about real estate. If legal or tax advice is desired, consult a competent professional. Both Lessor and Lessee should strongly consider obtaining tax advice from a competent professional because the federal and state tax consequences of a transaction can be complex and subject to change. (b) Brokers have no responsibility with respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. The Parties agree that no lawsuit or other legal proceeding involving any breach of duty, error or omission relating to this Lease may be brought against Broker more than one year after the Start Date and that the liability (including court costs and attorneys' fees), of any Broker with respect to any such lawsuit and/or legal proceeding shall not exceed the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation on each Broker's liability shall not be applicable to any gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker. (c) Confidential Information. Lessor and Lessee agree to identify to Brokers as "Confidential" any communication or information given Brokers that is considered by such Party to be confidential. 26. No Right To Holdover . Lessee has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or termination of this Lease. At or prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease Lessee shall deliver exclusive possession of the Premises to Lessor. For purposes of this provision and Paragraph 13.1(a), exclusive possession shall mean that Lessee shall have vacated the Premises, removed all of its personal property therefrom and that the Premises have been returned in the condition specified in this Lease. In the event that Lessee does not deliver exclusive possession to Lessor as specified above, then Lessor's damages during any holdover period shall be computed at the amount of the Rent (as defined in Paragraph 4.1) due during the last full month before the expiration or termination of this Lease (disregarding any temporary abatement of Rent that may have been in effect), but with Base Rent being 150% of the Base Rent payable during such last full month. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as consent by Lessor to any holding over by Lessee. 27. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. 28. Covenants and Conditions; Construction of Agreement. All provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee are both covenants and conditions. In construing this Lease, all headings and titles are for the convenience of the Parties only and shall not be considered a part of this Lease. Whenever required by the context, the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. This Lease shall not be construed as if prepared by one of the Parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as if both Parties had prepared it. 29. Binding Effect ; Choice of Law . This Lease shall be binding upon the Parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns and be governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located . Any litigation between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be initiated in the county in which the Premises are located . Signatures to this Lease accomplished by means of electronic signature or similar technology shall be legal and binding . 30. Subordination; Attornment; Non - Disturbance. 1. Subordination . This Lease and any Option granted hereby shall be subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or other hypothecation or security device (collectively, " Security Device "), now or hereafter placed upon the Premises, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, and extensions thereof. Lessee agrees that the holders of any such Security Devices (in this Lease together referred to as " Lender ") shall have no liability or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Lessor under this Lease. Any Lender may elect to have this Lease and/or any Option granted hereby superior to the lien of its Security Device by giving written notice thereof to Lessee, whereupon this Lease and such Options shall be deemed prior to such Security Device, notwithstanding the relative dates of the documentation or recordation thereof. 2. Attornment. In the event that Lessor transfers title to the Premises, or the Premises are acquired by another upon the foreclosure or termination of a Security Device to which this Lease is subordinated (i) Lessee shall, subject to the non - disturbance provisions of Paragraph 30.3, attorn to such new owner, and upon request, enter into a new lease, containing all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, with such new owner for the remainder of the term hereof, or, at the election of the new owner, this Lease will automatically become a new lease between Lessee and such new owner, and (ii) Lessor shall thereafter be relieved of any further obligations hereunder and such new owner shall assume all of Lessor's obligations, except that such new owner shall not: (a) be liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership; (b) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Lessee might have against any prior lessor, (c) be bound by prepayment of more than one month's rent, or (d) be liable for the return of any security deposit paid to any prior lessor which was not paid or credited to such new owner. 3. Non - Disturbance . With respect to Security Devices entered into by Lessor after the execution of this Lease, Lessee's subordination of this Lease shall be subject to receiving a commercially reasonable non - disturbance agreement (a " Non - Disturbance Agreement ") from the Lender which Non - Disturbance Agreement provides that Lessee's possession of the Premises, and this Lease, including any options to extend the term hereof, will not be disturbed so long as Lessee is not in Breach hereof and attorns to the record owner of the Premises. Further, within 60 days after the execution of this Lease, Lessor shall, if requested by Lessee, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Non - Disturbance Agreement from the holder of any pre - existing Security Device which is secured by the Premises. In the event that Lessor is unable to provide the Non - Disturbance Agreement within said 60 days, then Lessee may, at Lessee's option, directly contact Lender and attempt to negotiate for the execution and delivery of a Non - Disturbance Agreement. 4. Self - Executing . The agreements contained in this Paragraph 3 0 shall be effective without the execution of any further documents ; provided, however, that, upon written request from Lessor or a Lender in connection with a sale, financing or refinancing of the Premises, Lessee and Lessor shall execute such further writings as may be reasonably required to separately document any subordination, attornment and/or Non - Disturbance Agreement provided for herein . 26. Attorneys' Fees. If any Party or Broker brings an action or proceeding involving the Premises whether founded in tort, contract or equity, or to declare rights hereunder, the Prevailing Party (as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees. Such fees may be awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not such action or proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term, " Prevailing Party " shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party or Broker of its claim or defense. The attorneys' fees award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys' fees reasonably incurred. In addition, Lessor shall be entitled to attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notices of Default and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such Default or resulting Breach ($200 is a reasonable minimum per occurrence for such services and consultation). 27. Lessor's Access; Showing Premises; Repairs. Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, in the case of an emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times after reasonable prior notice for the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or tenants, and making such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable and the erecting, using and maintaining of utilities, services, pipes and conduits through the Premises and/or other premises as long as there is no material adverse effect on Lessee's use of the Premises. All such activities shall be without abatement of rent or liability to Lessee. 28. Auctions. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, any auction upon the Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. Lessor shall not be AH AH INITIALS© 2019 AIR CRE. All Rights Reserved.

obligated to exercise any standard of reasonableness in determining whether to permit an auction. 34. Signs. Lessor may place on the Premises ordinary "For Sale" signs at any time and ordinary "For Lease" signs during the last 6 months of the term hereof. Except for ordinary "For Sublease" signs which may be placed only on the Premises, Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Project without Lessor's prior written consent. All signs must comply with all Applicable Requirements. 35. Termination; Merger. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by Lessor, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, the mutual termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Lessor for Breach by Lessee, shall automatically terminate any sublease or lesser estate in the Premises; provided, however, that Lessor may elect to continue any one or all existing subtenancies. Lessor's failure within 10 days following any such event to elect to the contrary by written notice to the holder of any such lesser interest, shall constitute Lessor's election to have such event constitute the termination of such interest. 36. Consents. All requests for consent shall be in writing. Except as otherwise provided herein, wherever in this Lease the consent of a Party is required to an act by or for the other Party, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Lessor's actual reasonable costs and expenses (including but not limited to architects', attorneys', engineers' and other consultants' fees) incurred in the consideration of, or response to, a request by Lessee for any Lessor consent, including but not limited to consents to an assignment, a subletting or the presence or use of a Hazardous Substance, shall be paid by Lessee upon receipt of an invoice and supporting documentation therefor. Lessor's consent to any act, assignment or subletting shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no Default or Breach by Lessee of this Lease exists, nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing Default or Breach, except as may be otherwise specifically stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such consent. The failure to specify herein any particular condition to Lessor's consent shall not preclude the imposition by Lessor at the time of consent of such further or other conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the particular matter for which consent is being given. In the event that either Party disagrees with any determination made by the other hereunder and reasonably requests the reasons for such determination, the determining party shall furnish its reasons in writing and in reasonable detail within 10 business days following such request. 37. Guarantor . 1. Execution . The Guarantors, if any, shall each execute a guaranty in the form most recently published by AIR CRE . 2. Default .

Quiet Possession . Subject to payment by Lessee of the Rent and performance of all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Lessee's part to be observed and performed under this Lease, Lessee shall have quiet possession and quiet enjoyment of the Premises during the term hereof . 39. Options. If Lessee is granted any Option, as defined below, then the following provisions shall apply. 1. Definition . " Option " shall mean: (a) the right to extend or reduce the term of or renew this Lease or to extend or reduce the term of or renew any lease that Lessee has on other property of Lessor; (b) the right of first refusal or first offer to lease either the Premises or other property of Lessor; (c) the right to purchase, the right of first offer to purchase or the right of first refusal to purchase the Premises or other property of Lessor. 2. Options Personal To Original Lessee . Any Option granted to Lessee in this Lease is personal to the original Lessee, and cannot be assigned or exercised by anyone other than said original Lessee and only while the original Lessee is in full possession of the Premises and, if requested by Lessor, with Lessee certifying that Lessee has no intention of thereafter assigning or subletting. 3. Multiple Options . In the event that Lessee has any multiple Options to extend or renew this Lease, a later Option cannot be exercised unless the prior Options have been validly exercised. 4. Effect of Default on Options . (a) Lessee shall have no right to exercise an Option: (i) during the period commencing with the giving of any notice of Default and continuing until said Default is cured, (ii) during the period of time any Rent is unpaid (without regard to whether notice thereof is given Lessee), (iii) during the time Lessee is in Breach of this Lease, or (iv) in the event that Lessee has been given 3 or more notices of separate Default, whether or not the Defaults are cured, during the 12 month period immediately preceding the exercise of the Option. (b) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Lessee's inability to exercise an Option because of the provisions of Paragraph 39.4(a). (c) An Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee's due and timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and prior to the commencement of the extended term or completion of the purchase, (i) Lessee fails to pay Rent for a period of 30 days after such Rent becomes due (without any necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof), or (ii) if Lessee commits a Breach of this Lease. 40. Security Measures. Lessee hereby acknowledges that the Rent payable to Lessor hereunder does not include the cost of guard service or other security measures, and that Lessor shall have no obligation whatsoever to provide same.

Lessor reserves the right: (i) to grant, without the consent or joinder of Lessee, such easements, rights and dedications that Lessor deems necessary; (ii) to cause the recordation of parcel maps and restrictions; and (iii) to create and/or install new utility raceways, so long as such easements, rights, dedications, maps, restrictions, and utility raceways do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Lessee. Lessee agrees to sign any documents reasonably requested by Lessor to effectuate such rights. 42. Performance Under Protest. If at any time a dispute shall arise as to any amount or sum of money to be paid by one Party to the other under the provisions hereof, the Party against whom the obligation to pay the money is asserted shall have the right to make payment "under protest" and such payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment and there shall survive the right on the part of said Party to institute suit for recovery of such sum. If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part of said Party to pay such sum or any part thereof, said Party shall be entitled to recover such sum or so much thereof as it was not legally required to pay. A Party who does not initiate suit for the recovery of sums paid "under protest" within 6 months shall be deemed to have waived its right to protest such payment. 43. Authority; Multiple Parties; Execution. (a) If either Party hereto is a corporation, trust, limited liability company, partnership, or similar entity, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of such entity represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on its behalf. Each Party shall, within 30 days after request, deliver to the other Party satisfactory evidence of such authority.

(c) This Lease may be executed by the Parties in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 44. Conflict. Any conflict between the printed provisions of this Lease and the typewritten or handwritten provisions shall be controlled by the typewritten or handwritten provisions. 45. Offer. Preparation of this Lease by either Party or their agent and submission of same to the other Party shall not be deemed an offer to lease to the other Party. This Lease is not intended to be binding until executed and delivered by all Parties hereto. 46. Amendments. This Lease may be modified only in writing, signed by the Parties in interest at the time of the modification. As long as they do not materially change Lessee's obligations hereunder, Lessee agrees to make such reasonable non - monetary modifications to this Lease as may be reasonably required by a Lender in connection with the obtaining of normal financing or refinancing of the Premises. 47. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING INVOLVING THE PROPERTY OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. 48.

GUARANTY OF LEASE WHEREAS Little West LLC, a California Limited Liability Company and WS West LLC, A California Limited Liability Company (" Lessee ") desires to lease from ID Investments LLC (" Lessor ") the premises commonly known as (street address, city, state, zip) 426 East 58th Street, Unit B, Los Angeles, California 90011 (" Premises ") pursuant to a lease dated for reference purposes only as of September 11, 2024 (" Lease "). WHEREAS, as a material inducement to and in consideration of Lessor executing the Lease, Lessor requires Chris Dodigovic (" Guarantor ") to execute this Guaranty of Lease (" Guaranty "); Guarantor desires Lessee to consummate the Lease. Accordingly, contemporaneous with execution of the Lease, Guarantor is executing this Guaranty to induce Lessor to execute the Lease with Lessee. NOW THEREFORE, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees and promises to perform and be liable for any and all obligations and liabilities of Lessee under the Lease, including, but not limited to, payment of all rents and all other sums payable by Lessee under the Lease and performance by Lessee of each and every one of the terms, conditions and covenants to be kept and performed by Lessee under the Lease. Guarantor hereby agrees that, without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor and without affecting or in any way releasing Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty: (i) Lessor and Lessee may, by agreement or course of conduct, amend, extend, renew or otherwise alter any term, covenant or condition of the Lease, or the Lease may be assigned by Lessor or Lessee (and their successors and assigns) and this Guaranty shall guarantee all obligations of Lessee under the Lease as so amended, extended, renewed, altered or assigned; (ii) Lessor may release, change or add a party to the Lease and/or a guarantor of the Lease; (iii) Lessor may exercise, not exercise, delay exercising, impair, modify, limit, terminate or suspend any of Lessor's rights or remedies under the Lease or this Guaranty; and (iv) Lessor may permit all or any part of the Premises to be subleased, or the Lease to be assigned, assumed, transferred, mortgaged or encumbered. Guarantor hereby agrees that no notice of nonperformance or default by Lessee or by another guarantor need be given to Guarantor. This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guarantee. Guarantor waives the benefit of any law allowing Guarantor to revoke this Guaranty. No provision of this Guaranty or rights of Lessor hereunder may be waived, nor may any Guarantor be released from any obligation under this Guaranty except by a writing duly executed by Lessor. Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any right or defense based on: (i) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty; (ii) demands (including demands for payment or performance), presentation and protest; (iii) any statute of limitations; (iv) requiring Lessor to proceed against Lessee, any Guarantor or other guarantor or any other person (as herein defined) liable to Lessor, or to proceed against these persons in any order; (v) requiring Lessor to apply any security deposit or other security; (vi) requiring Lessor to proceed under any other remedy Lessor may have before proceeding against Guarantor; (vii) any right of subrogation that Guarantor may have against Lessee or other guarantors; (viii) any right or defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of Lessee, any guarantor or any other person; (ix) any right or defense arising by reason of the absence, impairment, modification, limitation, destruction or cessation (in bankruptcy, by an election of remedies, or otherwise) of the liability of Lessee, of the subrogation rights of Guarantor, or of the rights of Guarantor to proceed against Lessee for reimbursement; (x) limiting Guarantor's obligations to not exceed Lessee's obligations; and (xi) notices (including notices of adverse change in the financial status of Lessee or other facts that increase the risk to Guarantor). The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be altered, limited or affected by any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or liquidation of Lessee, Guarantor, any other guarantor, or by any defense that Lessee, Guarantor or any other guarantor may have by reason of any order, decree, or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. Guarantor subordinates any and all existing or future indebtedness of Lessee to Guarantor to Lessee's obligations owed to Lessor under the Lease. Any recovery by Lessor from any other guarantor or insurer shall first be credited to the portion of Lessee's indebtedness to Lessor which exceeds the maximum liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. If a person comprising Guarantor is married, such Guarantor expressly agrees that recourse may be had against such Guarantor's separate or community property. Guarantor shall, upon ten (10) days' prior written notice from Lessor, provide Lessor with Guarantor's financial statements for the current year and tax returns for the three (3) preceding years and, if such is the normal practice of Guarantor, such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and audited by an independent certified public accountant. Lessor shall maintain Guarantor's financial statements and tax returns in confidence but shall be permitted to disclose Guarantor's financial statements and tax returns to prospective lenders, purchasers or others for a bona fide business purpose. Guarantor shall, upon ten (10) days' prior written notice from Lessor, in writing reaffirm that this Guaranty remains and continues in full force and effect, that no event has occurred that would invalidate the Guaranty or excuse Guarantor's obligations or performance under the Guaranty, and that the Guaranty applies to the Lease, as amended, extended, renewed, altered or assigned. Guarantor shall, upon ten (10) days' prior written notice from Lessor, execute such other and further documents and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or required by Lessor to effectuate the intent of the parties and carry out the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor agrees that any suit, action or proceeding arising directly or indirectly from the Guaranty or the Lease shall be litigated only in courts located within the county and state in which the Premises is located. Guarantor irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any local, state or federal court located within the county and state in which the Premises is located, and waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise in any suit, action, or proceeding any claim that Guarantor is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above - named courts, that such suit, action, or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or that the venue of such action, suit, or proceeding is improper. Each person which comprises Guarantor consents to service of process by a nationally recognized overnight courier service (such as Federal Express) at either the Premises or at the Guarantor's address for notices set forth below, and shall be deemed served and received three (3) business days after deposit with the overnight mail service. Guarantor irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding that such service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. Lessor reserves the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. This Guaranty shall be governed by the laws of the state in which the Premises is located and, for purposes of conflicts of law, Guarantor shall be treated as if resident of or domiciled in such state. Guarantor waives the right to a jury trial of any cause of action, claim, counterclaim or cross - complaint in any action, proceeding or other hearing brought against Guarantor. If and to the extent the Lease requires Lessor and Lessee to arbitrate any disputes, then Guarantor also agrees to arbitrate such disputes in the same arbitration to the extent related to the Guaranty and upon the same terms and conditions provided in the Lease. If Lessor brings an action or proceeding against Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, the Prevailing Party (as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees. Such fees may be awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not such action or proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term, "Prevailing Party" shall include, without limitation, the party who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other party of its claim or defense. The attorneys' fees award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys' fees reasonably incurred. This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement between Guarantor and Lessor with respect to the subject matter of this Guaranty and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, representations and discussions, whether verbal or written, of the parties, pertaining to such subject matter. Guarantor is not relying on any representations, warranties or inducements from Lessor that are not expressly stated in this Guaranty. If any provision of this Guaranty is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, all other provisions hereof shall nevertheless be effective. The waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Guaranty shall not operate as a waiver of any other breach of such provision or any other provisions of this Guaranty, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further such exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Time is strictly of the essence under this Guaranty and any amendment, modification or revision of this Guaranty. Each person executing this Guaranty represents and warrants to Lessor that (i) each individual executing this Guaranty has the legal power, right, and actual authority to bind Guarantor; (ii) Guarantor has the legal right, power and authority to enter into and perform this Guaranty; (iii) all requisite action by or on behalf of a AH AH INITIALS© 2022 AIR CRE.

## Exhibit 10.8

**Exhibit 10.8**

**PROCESSING CONTRACT**

**1.** **THE PARTIES.** This Manufacturing Contract ("Contract")
is made between:

<u>Customer</u>: [Little West] with a mailing address of

[426 E 58th St, Los Angeles, CA 90011] ("Customer") and

<u>Processor</u>: HPPLA LLC with a mailing address of 440 E. 58<sup>th</sup> Street

Los Angeles, CA 90011 ("Processor").

Customer and Processor may herein be referred to individually as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties". This Contract may be referred to herein as the "Agreement".

WHEREAS Customer and Processor intend to enter into an agreement for contract manufacturing services effective [March 15<sup>th</sup>,2025]

NOW THEREFORE, Customer and Processor for good and valuable consideration do agree to be legally bound by this Contract as follows:

**2. ORDERING.** Customer shall initiate all orders by submitting a Customer Processing Request Form (CPRF) form to Processor for Products that are covered by this Agreement. Processor will make every reasonable effort to acknowledge receipt of orders no later than 1 business day after the order has been received. If the order is not acknowledged within this timeframe, the order shall be deemed as not having been received by Processor and Customer shall resubmit.

**3. CAPACITY PLANNING** Customer and Processor acknowledge that processor is allocating machine capacity of 695 cycles per week for customer. Customer shall notify Processor of the exact number of products for the up-coming week at least 7 business days prior to running their product. If Processor does not receive such forecast, or the required cycles exceed 695 cycles per week, Processor will make its best effort to accommodate that request, but cannot guarantee the additional capacity.

**4.** **Pricing** 

**Discounted Pricing**

**In exchange for committing to a minimum number of runs per month, the Customer will receive discounted pricing at a rate of $52.50 per run. The minimum number of runs to qualify for the discounted pricing is set forth in Section 5.1.**

**5.** **Minimum Monthly Runs** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1** **Agreed Minimum** 

**The Customer agrees to a minimum of 2,777 runs per calendar month (the "Minimum Monthly Runs"). In the event that the Customer fails to meet the Minimum Monthly Runs in any given month,** Processor **reserves the right to charge the full, undiscounted rate of $75 per run for that month.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.2** **Adjustment to Minimum Monthly Runs** 

**The Parties may agree in writing to adjust the Minimum Monthly Runs. Any adjustment must be mutually agreed upon and documented in writing by both Parties.**

**6. DOWN PAYMENT AND PAYMENT TERMS** Payment shall be due at time of invoicing. Processor shall have the right to require pre-payment and delay processing and/or suspend shipment on any order until payment has been received. A down payment equal to one payment period (75 runs) shall be required prior to initial run. An amount equal to this down payment will be returned to Customer within 60 days of termination of this contract if Customer has fully paid all invoices. If all invoices have not been paid, the amount not paid will be deducted from the down payment amount returned to Customer.

**7. DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE.** Products shall be ready to be shipped from Processor's facility by or before the agreed-upon shipping date, and will be packed, packaged, crated, stored, and marked utilizing the Customer's supplied packing materials and instructions, so as to ensure safe delivery in compliance with all regulations of the carrier(s) and any governing authorities. This Shipping date is also the delivery date from Processor to Customer.

Customer is responsible for all aspects of transportation of product to and from Processor's facility.

Customer has 1 day after the date of delivery to inspect and accept or reject the shipment in whole or in part ("Inspection Period"). If a shipment is not accepted or rejected within this Inspection Period, then the shipment is considered to have been accepted by Customer.

Customer shall notify Processor within the Inspection Period if any Product(s) are rejected for damage or for failing to conform to the specifications set forth herein. Processor shall have the right to repair or replace any Product it deems Customer has reasonably rejected for damage or for failing to conform to specifications.

Page 1 of 7

**8. LATE DELIVERY.** If Processor fails to deliver the Products in accordance with Paragraph 7, and fails to cure such delay for 5 business days after the issue of written notice by Customer, Customer may elect to do any of the following:

● approve a revised delivery date or time;

● Process or cancel the applicable order and obtain similar goods and products from other sources until such time that Processor is able to fulfill the subsequent order at the agreed-upon date and time.

Processor shall use its best efforts to avoid any delay in the delivery of the Products, and shall promptly notify Customer in writing of any circumstances that may cause a delay. The Processor shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to lost profits, loss of business, or delays in production, arising out of or related to the malfunction, breakdown, or failure of any machinery or equipment utilized in the manufacturing process. The Customer's exclusive remedy in the event of a machine failure or malfunction shall be the same as notated above for the late delivery.

**9. WARRANTY.** Processor warrants to Customer that the product has undergone the appropriate time and pressure requirements set by the customer and will submit SCADA documentation to customer as evidence of that.

HPPLA represents and warrants that the Services will be provided in a professional and workmanlike manner and in accordance with applicable industry standards.

The Customer represents and warrants that all products submitted to HPPLA for pasteurization are fit for processing and comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

**10. CHANGES.** Neither Party may make changes to a Product's specifications except as set forth in this Provision. Upon sufficient notice, Customer may make changes from time to time, within reason, and within the general scope of this Agreement that may include but shall not be limited to changes in design, specification, procedure, tolerances, drawings, packaging, Bill of Materials, and Products. Changes shall be accomplished by submission of a written order ("Change Order") by customer to the Processor that clearly identifies the changes to be made and clearly identifies any obsolete or superseding information. If such changes cause an increase or decrease in Processor's cost or time required to perform under this Agreement, Processor may adjust pricing in a manner that adequately compensates Parties for such changes. Such change shall be implemented upon agreement by both parties.

**11. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.** Customer warrants that the processing of Products pursuant to this Agreement does not, or will not, to the best of Customer's knowledge, constitute any infringement whatsoever upon the intellectual property rights of any third party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.5.** **Work for Others.** The Company recognizes and agrees that the Employee may perform similar services for other persons, provided
that such services do not represent a conflict of interest or a breach of the Employee's fiduciary duty to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.1.** <u>Monthly Fee</u>. Should Company succeed in obtaining a Listing, Company hopes to pay Employee's services at a rate of $15,000
per month payable on the fifteenth (15<sup>th</sup>) of each month during the Term of this Agreement. In addition, Employee may receive
a discretionary bonus from the Company at times and in amounts in the Company's sole discretion. Except as otherwise set forth herein,
all monetary amounts referred to in this Agreement are in U.S. Dollars (USD).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.2.** <u>Listing Fee</u>. Upon the Listing,
 the Company shall pay Employee a success fee of $150,000, due and payable within (3) business
 days of the Listing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.3.** <u>Equity</u>. Upon the Listing, the Company shall issue Employee 100,000 shares of its common stock (or
foreign equivalent) which shall vest 25% per quarter, over the course of four (4) quarters (i.e. every 3 months).

**4.** **Expenses.** The Company shall reimburse Employee for all pre-approved expenses incurred and approved
 in writing by the Company.

**5.** **Term; Termination.** This Agreement shall commence upon
execution, is effective for twelve (12) months and will automatically renew for successive twelve (12) month terms unless either Party
provides at least thirty (30) days' written notice before the renewal date. Either Party may also terminate this Agreement at any
time with thirty (30) days' written notice, with all obligations incurred prior to termination remaining in effect. No expiration
or termination of the Agreement shall affect the Company's obligation to pay Employee the full amount of compensation owed under
the terms of this Agreement. If the date of termination of the Employee occurs 90 days or less prior to a subsequent Listing, then notwithstanding
the Employee's terminated status, the Listing event will trigger the Company's obligations to the Employee as identified
in §§ 3.2 & 3.3 as if no termination occurred.

**6.** **Confidential Information; Nondisclosure of Confidential Information**.
Employee acknowledges that, pursuant to this Agreement, Employee may be given access to or may become acquainted with certain information
or trade secrets, or both, of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates in which the Company has invested, including but not
limited to, confidential information and trade secrets regarding computer programs, designs, skills, patents, pending patents, copyrights,
procedures, methods, documentation, plans, drawings, schematics, facilities, customers, policies, marketing, pricing, customer lists
and other information and know-how all relating to or useful to the Company and its companies in which the Company has invested (collectively,
the "**Confidential Information**") and the exclusive property of the Company and its companies in which the Company has
invested. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of five years thereafter, Employee shall only disclose the Confidential
Information in connection with its performance pursuant to this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and
otherwise, the Employee shall not in any manner, either directly or indirectly, divulge, disclose or communicate to any person or entity,
any of the Confidential Information. Employee expressly agrees that the Confidential Information affects the successful and effective
conduct of the Company and its companies in which the Company has invested business and its goodwill, and that any breach of the terms
of this Section by the Employee is a breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
the Employee shall not be prohibited from disclosing to third parties, or using without the prior written consent of the Company, information
that (a) was, on the date of this Agreement, generally known to the public, (b) is as of the date of this Agreement known to the Employee,
as evidenced by written records in the possession of Employee, (c) is subsequently disclosed to Employee by a third party who is in lawful
possession of such information and is not under an obligation of confidence; (d) is disclosed by the Company to third parties generally
without restriction on use and disclosure, or (e) is required to be disclosed by law or a final order of a court or other governmental
agency or authority of competent jurisdiction, provided, however, reasonable notice prior to any disclosure as required by applicable
law or court process shall be given to the Company which would allow the Company sufficient time to attempt to obtain injunctive
relief in respect to such disclosure.

**7.** **Indemnification.** Company agrees to protect, defend, hold harmless, and indemnify (collectively "Indemnify"
 and "Indemnification") Employee, its subsidiaries, and its and their respective
 successors, assigns, directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates (collectively,
 "Indemnified Parties") from and against all claims, demands, actions, suits,
 damages, liabilities, losses, settlements, judgments, costs, and expenses of or by a third
 party OR whether or not involving a claim by a third party, including but not limited to
 reasonable attorneys' fees and costs (collectively, "Claims"), actually
 or allegedly, directly or indirectly, arising out of or related to (1) any breach of any
 representation or warranty of Company contained in this Agreement; (2) any breach or violation
 of any covenant or other obligation or duty of Company under this Agreement or under applicable
 law; (3) any third party Claims which arise out of, relate to or result from any act or omission
 of Company; and (4) any and all Claims against Employee as a result of the services provided
 under this Agreement, in each case whether or not caused in whole or in part by negligence
 or otherwise of Employee, or any other Indemnified Party, and whether or not the relevant
 Claim has merit.

8. Legal Matters; Miscellaneous.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.1.** **Pro Rata Compensation.** In the event that this Agreement is terminated by either party prior to
 completion of the Services but where the Services have been partially performed, the Employee
 will be entitled to pro rata payment of the compensation set forth in Section 4 herein to
 the date of termination provided that there has been no breach of contract on the part of
 the Employee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.2.** **Dispute Resolution.** The parties will first make a good
faith effort to settle by negotiation any dispute regarding this Agreement. If a settlement has not been reached within 15 days
of beginning that negotiation, then the dispute will be submitted for mediation. If a settlement has not been reached in the mediation
proceeding, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration by a mutually acceptable arbitrator, and the other party
agrees to participate in that arbitration proceeding. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, then each party will select one arbitrator,
and those two arbitrators will select a third arbitrator who will conduct the arbitration. Any arbitration under this section will be
conducted in Miami, Florida, pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect,
and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction of the matter. However, this
section will not apply to (a) actions for equitable relief, or (b) actions to enforce any mediation or arbitration award. In any action
under the preceding clauses (a) or (b), each party waives all rights to a jury trial.

## Exhibit 10.12

**Exhibit 10.12**

**LITTLE WEST HOLDINGS INC.**

**BOARD OF DIRECTORS AGREEMENT**

This **BOARD OF DIRECTORS AGREEMENT** (**"Agreement"**) dated as of [●], 2025, by and between Little West Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (the **"Company"**), and the undersigned signatory (the **"Director"**), provides for director services, according to the following terms and conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I. <u>Position and Responsibilities</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Position</u>. As of the Effective Date, the Board of Directors hereby appoints the Director to serve
as a Board member until the next annual meeting of the Company's shareholders or until his or her earlier resignation, removal or
death. The Director shall perform such duties and responsibilities as are customarily related to such position in accordance with Company's
bylaws and applicable law, including, but not limited to, those services described on  **<u>Exhibit A</u>** attached hereto (the "**Services** ").
Director hereby agrees to use his or her best efforts to provide the Services. Director shall not allow any other person or entity to
perform any of the Services for or instead of Director. Director shall comply with the statutes, rules, regulations and orders of any
governmental or quasi-governmental authority, which are applicable to the Company and the performance of the Services, and Company's
rules, regulations, and practices as they may from time-to-time be adopted or modified.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Other Activities</u>. Director may be employed by another company, may serve on other Boards of Directors
or Advisory Boards, and may engage in any other business activity (whether or not pursued for pecuniary advantage), as long as such outside
activities do not violate Director's obligations under this Agreement or Director's fiduciary obligations to the Company's
shareholders. The ownership of less than a 5% interest in an entity, by itself, shall not constitute a violation of this duty. Director
represents that Director has no outstanding agreement or obligation that is in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement,
and Director agrees to use his or her best efforts to avoid or minimize any such conflict and agrees not to enter into any agreement or
obligation that could create such a conflict without the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors. If, at any time, Director is
required to make any disclosure or take any action that may conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, Director will promptly
notify the Board of such obligation, prior to making such disclosure or taking such action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>No Conflict</u>. Director will not engage in any activity that creates an actual or perceived conflict
of interest with Company, regardless of whether such activity is prohibited by Company's conflict of interest guidelines or this
Agreement, and Director agrees to notify the Board of Directors before engaging in any activity that could reasonably be assumed to create
a potential conflict of interest with Company. Notwithstanding the provisions of <u>Section 1(b)</u> hereof, Director shall not engage
in any activity that is in direct competition with the Company or serve in any capacity (including, but not limited to, as an employee,
consultant, advisor or director) in any company or entity that competes directly or indirectly with the Company, as reasonably determined
by a majority of Company's disinterested board members, without the approval of the Board of Directors.

The Director agrees, subject to the Director's continued status as a director, to serve on the Company's Board of Directors (the **"Board"**) and to provide those services required of a director under the Company's certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as both may be amended from time to time (**"Charter Documents"**) and under the federal securities laws and other state and federal laws and regulations, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the **"SEC"**) and any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Company's securities may be traded from time to time. Director will also serve on such one or more committees of the Board as he or she and the Board shall mutually agree.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;II. <u>Nature of Relationship</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The Director is an independent contractor and will not be deemed as an employee of the Company for any
purposes by virtue of this Agreement. The Director shall be solely responsible for the payment or withholding of all federal, state, or
local income taxes, social security taxes, unemployment taxes, and any and all other taxes relating to the compensation he or she earns
under this Agreement. The Director shall not, in his or her capacity as a director of the Company, enter into any agreement or incur any
obligations on the Company's behalf, without appropriate Board action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The Company will supply, at no cost to the Director: periodic briefings on the business, director packages
for each board and committee meeting, copies of minutes of meetings and any other materials that are required under the Company's
Charter Documents or the charter of any committee of the Board on which the Director serves and any other materials which may, by mutual
agreement, be necessary for performing the services requested under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;III. <u>Director's Representations and Warranties</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The Director represents and warrants that no other party has exclusive rights to his or her services in
the specific areas in which the Company is conducting business and that the Director is in no way compromising any rights or trust between
any other party and the Director or creating a conflict of interest as a result of his or her participation on the Board. The Director
also represents, warrants and covenants that so long as the Director serves on the Board, the Director will not enter into another agreement
that will create a conflict of interest with this Agreement or the Company. The Director further represents, warrants and covenants that
he or she will comply with the Company's Articles, Bylaws, policies and guidelines, all applicable laws and regulations, including
Sections 10 and 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or any other
stock exchanges on which the Company's securities may be traded; that if he or she is designated by the Board as an independent
director, he or she shall promptly notify the Board of any circumstances that may potentially impair his or her independence as a director
of the Company; and that he or she shall promptly notify the Board of any arrangements or agreements relating to compensation provided
by a third party to him or her in connection with his or her status as a director or director nominee of the Company or the services requested
under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. Throughout the term of this Agreement, the Director agrees he or she will not, without obtaining the Company's
prior written consent, directly or indirectly engage or prepare to engage in any activity in competition with the Company's business,
products or services, including without limitation, products or services in the development stage, accept employment or provide services
to (including but not limited to service as a member of a board of directors), or establish a business in competition with the Company;
provided, however, that the Director may serve or continue to serve as an officer or director of one or more entities that are affiliated
with the Company, including without limitation, entities in which the Company does not have a majority holding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IV. <u>Fees</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. <u>Cash Fee</u>. Subject to <u>Section VI</u> and during the term of this Agreement, the Company
shall pay the Director, if the Company does not otherwise compensate the Director as an officer or employee, a non-refundable base fee
of $9,000 per quarter in consideration for the Director providing the services described in <u>Section I</u> which shall compensate
him or her for all time spent preparing for, travelling to (if applicable) and attending Board or committee meetings. This cash fees may
be revised by action of the Board from time to time. Such revision shall be effective as of the date specified in the resolution for payments
not yet earned and need not be documented by an amendment to this Agreement to be effective. In addition, if the non-employee Director
serves as the chairperson of any standing committee of the Board, he or she may be entitled to additional cash compensation as decided
by the Board (or the compensation committee thereof) in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. <u>Payment</u>. Cash fees shall be paid quarterly at the beginning of each calendar quarter. No invoices
need be submitted by the Director for payment of the Base or Chair Fee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. <u>Equity Compensation</u>. For services as a member of the Board, on the Effective Date, the Company

the Public Offering. The Option shall vest in full on the anniversary date of the Effective Date. In addition, the Director shall also automatically be granted an annual award of 50,000 Restricted Stock Units covering the Company's
common stock (an "**Annual RSU Award**") under the Company's 2025 Plan, or successor equity incentive plan, with
the first Annual RSU Award granted on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, with the following automatic Annual RSU Awards granted
on each anniversary date thereafter. Each Annual RSU Award shall vest in full on its <u>second anniversary</u> of the date of its grant,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. <u>Expenses</u>. During the term of this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Director for reasonable
business related expenses approved by the Company in advance, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Invoices for expenses, with
receipts attached, shall be submitted. Such invoices must be approved by the Company's Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial
Officer as to form and completeness.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;V. <u>Indemnification and Insurance</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;VI. <u>Term of Agreement and Amendments</u> 

This Agreement shall commence from the date the Company's Form S-1 registration statement goes effective with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**Effective Date**") for the Company's proposed initial public offering of securities (the "**Public Offering**") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "**Securities Act**"), and shall continue for a period of one (1) year from the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter for as long as Director is elected as a member of the Board of Directors by the shareholders of the Company unless the Board determines not to renew this Agreement. Any amendment to this Agreement must be approved by the Board. Any amendment to this Agreement must be approved by the Board. Amendments to <u>Section IV</u> **"Fees"** hereof do not require the Director's consent to be effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;VII. <u>Termination</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the death of the Director or upon his or her resignation
or removal from, or failure to win election or reelection to, the Board. In the event of expiration or termination of this Agreement,
the Director agrees to return or destroy any materials transferred to the Director under this Agreement except as may be necessary to
fulfill any outstanding obligations hereunder. The Director agrees that the Company has the right of injunctive relief to enforce this
provision.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The Company's and the Director's continuing obligations hereunder in the event of expiration
or termination of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of <u>Section XIV</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;VIII. <u>Limitation of Liability and Force Majeure</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Under no circumstances shall the Company be liable to the Director for any consequential damages claimed
by any other party as a result of representations made by the Director with respect to the Company which are materially different from
any to those made in writing by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. Furthermore, except for the maintenance of confidentiality, neither party shall be liable to the other
for delay in any performance, or for failure to render any performance under this Agreement when such delay or failure is caused by Government
regulations (whether or not valid), fire, strike, differences with workmen, illness of employees, flood, accident, or any other cause
or causes beyond reasonable control of such delinquent party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IX. <u>Confidentiality and Use of Director Information</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The Director agrees to sign and abide by the Company's Director Proprietary Information Agreement
attached hereto as **Exhibit B** (the **"Proprietary Information Agreement"**).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The Director explicitly consents to the Company holding and processing both electronically and manually
the information that he or she provides to the Company or the data that the Company collects which relates to the Director for the purpose
of the administration, management and compliance purposes, including but not limited to the Company's disclosure of any and all
information provided by the Director in the Company's proxy statements, annual reports or other securities filings or reports pursuant
to federal or state securities laws or regulations, and the Director agrees to promptly notify the Company of any misstatement of a material
fact regarding the Director, and of the omission of any material fact necessary to make the statements contained in such documents regarding
the Director not misleading.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;X. <u>Dispute Resolution</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. *Jurisdiction and Venue*. The parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding between Director
and Company (and its affiliates, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, members, agents, successors, attorneys, and assigns) relating
to this Agreement shall be brought in either the United States District Court for the State of Delaware or in a Delaware state court and
that the parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such court. If any one or more
provisions of this Section shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the parties that such provisions
shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. *Attorneys' Fees*. Should any litigation, arbitration or other proceeding be commenced between
the parties concerning the rights or obligations of the parties under this Agreement, the party prevailing in such proceeding shall be
entitled, in addition to such other relief as may be granted, to a reasonable sum as and for its attorneys' fees in such proceeding.
This amount shall be determined by the court in such proceeding or in a separate action brought for that purpose. In addition to any amount
received as attorneys' fees, the prevailing party also shall be entitled to receive from the party held to be liable, an amount
equal to the attorneys' fees and costs incurred in enforcing any judgment against such party. This Section is severable from the
other provisions of this Agreement and survives any judgment and is not deemed merged into any judgment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;XI. <u>Entire Agreement</u> 

This Agreement (including agreements executed in substantially the form of the exhibits attached hereto) supersedes all prior or contemporaneous written or oral understandings or agreements, and, except as otherwise set forth herein, may not be added to, modified, or waived, in whole or in part, except by a writing signed by the party against whom such addition, modification or waiver is sought to be asserted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;XII. <u>Assignment</u> 

This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither this Agreement, nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by either of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;XIII. <u>Notices</u> 

Any and all notices, requests and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, registered mail or by facsimile, to each of the parties at the addresses provided. Any such notice shall be deemed given when received and notice given by registered mail shall be considered to have been given on the tenth (10th) day after having been sent in the manner provided for above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;XIV. <u>Survival of Obligations</u> 

Notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this Agreement, neither party hereto shall be released hereunder from any liability or obligation to the other which has already accrued as of the time of such expiration or termination (including, without limitation, the Director's obligations under the Proprietary Information Agreement, the Company's obligation to make any fees and expense payments required pursuant to <u>Section IV</u> due up to the date of the expiration or termination, and the Company's indemnification and insurance obligations set forth in <u>Section V</u> hereof) or which thereafter might accrue in respect of any act or omission of such party prior to such expiration or termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;XV. <u>Severability</u> 

Any provision of this Agreement which is determined to be invalid or unenforceable shall not affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall remain in effect as though the invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein, unless the removal of the invalid or unenforceable provision would substantially defeat the intent, purpose or spirit of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;XVI. <u>Counterparts</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. All Proprietary Information (including all copies thereof) shall remain the property of the Company, and
shall be returned to the Company (or destroyed) after the Director's need for it has expired, or upon request of the Company, and in any
event, upon the expiration or termination of Director Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, disclosure of Proprietary Information shall not
be precluded if such disclosure:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. is in response to a valid order, including a subpoena, of a court or other governmental body of the United
States or any political subdivision thereof; provided, however, that to the extent reasonably feasible, the Director shall first have
given the Company notice of the Director's receipt of such order and the Company shall have had an opportunity to obtain a protective
order requiring that the Proprietary Information so disclosed be used only for the purpose for which the order was issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. is otherwise required by law; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. is otherwise necessary to establish rights or enforce obligations under this Agreement, but only to the
extent that any such disclosure is necessary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect during the term of the Director Agreement. This
Agreement may be terminated at any time thereafter upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other party. The termination of this Agreement
shall not relieve the Director of the obligations imposed by Paragraphs 3, 4, 5 and 11 of this Agreement with respect to Proprietary
information disclosed prior to the effective date of such termination and the provisions of these Paragraphs shall survive the termination
of this Agreement indefinitely with respect to Proprietary Information that constitutes **"trade secrets"** and for a period
of eighteen (18) months from the date of such termination with respect to other Proprietary Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware as those laws are applied to contracts
entered into and to be performed entirely in Delaware.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. This Agreement contains the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties relative to the subject
matter hereof and may not be changed, modified, amended or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Each party hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach of this Agreement by the Director,
including, without limitation, an actual or threatened disclosure of Proprietary Information without the prior express written consent
of the Company, the Company will suffer an irreparable injury, such that no remedy at law will afford it adequate protection against,
or appropriate compensation for, such injury. Accordingly, each party hereby agrees that the Company shall be entitled to specific performance
of the Director's obligations under this Agreement, as well as such further injunctive relief as may be granted by a court of competent
jurisdiction.

**<u>EXHIBIT C</u>**

**LITTLE WEST HOLDINGS INC.**

**INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT**

This **INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT** is made effective as of _______________, 2025 (this "**Agreement**"), by and between Little West Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (the **"Company"**) and the undersigned signatory (**"Indemnitee"**).

**RECITALS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The Company and Indemnitee recognize the continued difficulty in obtaining liability insurance for its
directors, officers, employees, stockholders, controlling persons, agents and fiduciaries, the significant increases in the cost of such
insurance and the general reductions in the coverage of such insurance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. the Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial increase in corporate litigation in general,
which subjects directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, stockholders, agents and fiduciaries to expensive litigation risks
at the same time as the availability and coverage of liability insurance has been severely limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. Indemnitee does not regard the current protection available as adequate under the present circumstances,
and Indemnitee and other directors, officers, employees, stockholders, controlling persons, agents and fiduciaries of the Company may
not be willing to serve in such capacities without additional protection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D. The Company (i) desires to attract and retain highly qualified individuals and entities, such as Indemnitee,
to serve the Company and, in part, in order to induce Indemnitee to be involved with the Company and (ii) wishes to provide for the indemnification
and advancing of expenses to Indemnitee to the maximum extent permitted by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. This Agreement forms part of the consideration for Indemnitee to serve, or to continue to serve, as an
officer or director of the Company, and allows Indemnitee to fulfill his or her fiduciary duties under law and take on actions for or
on behalf of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. In view of the considerations set forth above, the Company desires that Indemnitee be indemnified by the
Company as set forth herein.

**NOW, THEREFORE**, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Indemnification</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Indemnification of Expenses</u>. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee (including
its respective directors, officers, partners, former partners, members, former members, employees, agents and spouse, as applicable) and
each person who controls any of them or who may be liable within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the **"Securities Act"**), or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the **"Exchange Act"**), to the fullest extent permitted by law if Indemnitee was or is or becomes a party to or witness or other participant
in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding
or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, or any hearing, inquiry or investigation that Indemnitee believes might lead to the institution
of any such action, suit, proceeding or alternative dispute resolution mechanism, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative
or other (hereinafter a **"Claim"**) by reason of (or arising in part or in whole out of) any event or occurrence related
to the fact that Indemnitee is or was or may be deemed a director, officer, stockholder, employee, controlling person, agent or fiduciary
of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, or is or was or may be deemed to be serving at the request of the Company as a director,
officer, stockholder, employee, controlling person, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while serving in such capacity
including, without limitation, any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities, joint or several (including any investigation,
legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit, proceeding or any claim
asserted) under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise
or which relate directly or indirectly to the registration, purchase, sale or ownership of any securities of the Company or to any fiduciary
obligation owed with respect thereto or as a direct or indirect result of any Claim made by any stockholder of the Company against Indemnitee
and arising out of or related to any round of financing of the Company (including but not limited to Claims regarding non-participation,
or non-pro rata participation, in such round by such stockholder), or made by a third party against Indemnitee based on any misstatement
or omission of a material fact by the Company in violation of any duty of disclosure imposed on the Company by federal or state securities
or common laws (hereinafter an **"Indemnification Event"**) against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees
and all other costs, expenses and obligations incurred in connection with investigating, defending a witness in or participating in (including
on appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness in or participate in, any such action, suit, proceeding, alternative dispute resolution
mechanism, hearing, inquiry or investigation), judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (if, and only if, such settlement
is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) of such Claim and any federal, state, local
or foreign taxes imposed on Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement (collectively,
hereinafter **"Expenses"**), including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or
in respect of such Expenses. Such payment of Expenses shall be made by the Company as soon as practicable but in any event no later than
ten (10) days after written demand by Indemnitee therefor is presented to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Reviewing Party</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the obligations of the Company under <u>Section 1(a)</u> shall be subject to the condition that the Reviewing Party (as described in <u>Section 10(e)</u> hereof) shall not have determined
(in a written opinion, in any case in which the Independent Legal Counsel referred to in <u>Section 1(e)</u> hereof is involved)
that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law, and (ii) Indemnitee acknowledges and agrees that the obligation
of the Company to make an advance payment of Expenses to Indemnitee pursuant to <u>Section 2(a)</u> (an **"Expense Advance"**)
shall be subject to the condition that, if, when and to the extent that the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee would not be permitted
to be so indemnified under applicable law, the Company shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Indemnitee (who hereby agrees to reimburse
the Company) for all such amounts theretofore paid; provided, however, that if Indemnitee has commenced or thereafter commences legal
proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law,
any determination made by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not
be binding and Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination
is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed). Indemnitee's obligation
to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon. If there has not been a
Change in Control (as defined in <u>Section 10(c)</u> hereof), the Reviewing Party shall be selected by the Company's Board
of Directors (the **"Board"**), and if there has been such a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control which has
been approved by a majority of the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the Reviewing Party shall be
the Independent Legal Counsel referred to in <u>Section 1(e)</u> hereof. If there has been no determination by the Reviewing Party
or if the Reviewing Party determines that Indemnitee substantively would not be permitted to be indemnified in whole or in part under
applicable law, Indemnitee shall have the right to commence litigation seeking an initial determination by the court or challenging any
such determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof, including the legal or factual bases therefor, and the Company hereby
consents to service of process and to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party otherwise shall be conclusive
and binding on the Company and Indemnitee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. <u>Contribution</u>. If the indemnification provided for in <u>Section 1(a)</u> above for any reason
is determined by the Reviewing Party or held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to Indemnitee in respect of any losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities referred to therein, then the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee thereunder, shall,
to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by Indemnitee as a result of such losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company
and Indemnitee and the relative fault of the Company and Indemnitee in connection with the action or inaction which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In connection with losses, claims, damages,
expenses or liabilities resulting from the registration of the Company's securities, the relative benefits received by the Company
and Indemnitee shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses)
received by them, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the aggregate public
offering price of the securities so offered. The relative fault of the Company and Indemnitee shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact relates to information supplied by the Company or Indemnitee and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information
and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and Indemnitee agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this <u>Section 1(c)</u> were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In connection with losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities resulting from the registration of the Company's securities, in no event shall Indemnitee be required to contribute any amount under this <u>Section 1(c)</u> in excess of the lesser of (i) that proportion of the total of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities indemnified against equal to Indemnitee's proportion of the total securities being offered under such registration statement or (ii) the proceeds received by Indemnitee from its securities sold under the registration statement. Notwithstanding this <u>Section 1(c)</u>, no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Survival Regardless of Investigation</u>. The indemnification and contribution provided for in this <u>Section 1</u> will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Indemnitee or any officer,
director, employee, agent or controlling person of Indemnitee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Change in Control</u>. The Company agrees that if there is a Change in Control of the Company (other
than a Change in Control which has been approved by a majority of the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control)
then, with respect to all matters thereafter arising concerning the rights of Indemnitee to payments of Expenses under this Agreement
or any other agreement or under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the **"Certificate"**) or
Bylaws, as amended, as now or hereafter in effect, Independent Legal Counsel (as defined in <u>Section 10(d)</u> hereof) shall be
selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such counsel, among other things,
shall render its written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee as to whether and to what extent Indemnitee would be permitted to be indemnified
under applicable law. The Company agrees to abide by such opinion and to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Legal Counsel referred
to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees), claims, liabilities and damages
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f. <u>Mandatory Payment of Expenses</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent
that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise, including, without limitation, the dismissal of an action without prejudice,
in the defense of any action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation referred to in <u>Section 1(a)</u> hereof or in the defense
of any claim, issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection herewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Expenses ; Indemnification Procedure.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Advancement of Expenses</u>. Subject to <u>Section 1(b)</u> hereof, the Company shall advance
all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee as soon as practicable
but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days after written demand by Indemnitee therefor to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Notice/Cooperation by Indemnitee</u>. Indemnitee shall give the Company written notice as soon as practicable
of any Claim made against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement; provided, however, that any
failure or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Agreement unless and to the extent
that (i) the Company is not aware of such Claim and (ii) the Company is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. The written notice
to the Company shall include a description of the nature of and the facts underlying the Claim and be directed to the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company at the address shown on the signature page of this Agreement (or such other address as the Company shall designate
in writing to Indemnitee).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. <u>No Presumptions; Burden of Proof</u>. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any Claim
by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent,
shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a
court has determined that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law. In addition, neither the failure of the Reviewing Party
to have made a determination as to whether Indemnitee has met any particular standard of conduct or had any particular belief, nor an
actual determination by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee has not met such standard of conduct or did not have such belief, prior to
the commencement of legal proceedings by Indemnitee to secure a judicial determination that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable
law, shall be a defense to Indemnitee's claim or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any particular standard of conduct
or did not have any particular belief. In connection with any determination by the Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether Indemnitee
is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the burden of proof shall be on the Company to establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Notice to Insurers</u>. If, at the time of the receipt by the Company of a notice of a Claim pursuant
to <u>Section 2(b)</u> hereof, the Company has liability insurance in effect which may cover such Claim, the Company shall give prompt
written notice of the commencement of such Claim to the applicable insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in each of the
policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee,
all amounts payable as a result of such action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation in accordance with the terms of such policies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Selection of Counsel</u>. In the event the Company is obligated hereunder to pay the Expenses of any
Claim, the Company shall be entitled to participate in the proceeding and assume the control of the defense of such Claim, with counsel
reasonably approved by Indemnitee (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), upon the delivery to Indemnitee
of written notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of
such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred
by Indemnitee with respect to the same Claim; provided that, (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee's counsel
in any such Claim at Indemnitee's sole expense; (ii) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ Indemnitee's own counsel in
connection with such proceeding, at the expense of the Company, if such counsel serves in a review, observer, advice and counseling capacity
and does not otherwise materially control or participate in the defense of such Claim; and (iii) if the Company and Indemnitee have mutually
concluded that there is a conflict of interest between them in the conduct of the defense of such Claim, then Indemnitee is entitled to
retain its own counsel and the reasonable fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel reasonably approved by the Company (such approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) shall be at the expense of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Additional Indemnification Rights; Non-Exclusivity.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Scope</u>. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify Indemnitee for the Expenses of any Claim to the fullest
extent permitted by law, even if indemnification is not specifically authorized by the other provisions of this Agreement or any other
agreement, the Company's Certificate and Bylaws or by statute. In the event of any change after the date of this Agreement in any
applicable law, statute or rule which expands the right of a Nevada corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an
officer, employee, agent or fiduciary, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater
benefits afforded by such change. In the event of any change in any applicable law, statute or rule which narrows the right of a Nevada
corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, employee, agent or fiduciary, such change, to the extent not
otherwise required by such law, statute or rule to be applied to this Agreement, shall have no effect on this Agreement or the parties'
rights and obligations hereunder except as set forth in <u>Section 8(a)</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Non-Exclusivity</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the indemnification provided by this
Agreement shall be in addition to any rights to which Indemnitee may be entitled under the Company's Certificate or Bylaws, any
agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, the laws of the State of Nevada, or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything
in this Agreement, the indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action Indemnitee took or
did not take while serving in an indemnified capacity even though Indemnitee may have ceased to serve in such capacity and indemnification
shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee from and after Indemnitee's first day of service as a director with the Company or affiliation
with a director from and after the date such director commences services as a director with the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. <u>No Duplication of Payments</u>. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall
not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment in connection with any Claim made against Indemnitee to the extent Indemnitee has
otherwise actually received payment (under any insurance policy, any other agreement, the Company's Certificate and Bylaws or otherwise)
of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Partial Indemnification</u>. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification
by the Company for any portion of Expenses incurred in connection with any Claim, but not, however, for all of the total amount thereof,
the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such Expenses to which Indemnitee is entitled thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Mutual Acknowledgement</u>. The Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that in certain instances, applicable
law or public policy may prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, agents or fiduciaries
under this Agreement or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f. <u>Liability Insurance</u>. During any period of time Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification rights
under this Agreement, the Company shall maintain liability insurance applicable to directors, officers, employees, control persons, agents
or fiduciaries, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policies in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as
are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company's directors, if Indemnitee is a director, or of the Company's officers,
if Indemnitee is not a director of the Company but is an officer; or of the Company's key employees, controlling persons, agents
or fiduciaries, if Indemnitee is not an officer or director but is a key employee, agent, control person, or fiduciary. Said liability
insurance shall provide coverage amounts of no less than $100,000 and shall be held with an insurance carrier which the Board believes
is of financially sound condition. Further, the Company shall at all times maintain a cash reserve of $100,000 as a self-insurance fund
to backstop any indemnification obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Exceptions</u>. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. <u>Claims Under Section 16(b)</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection
with any Claims for which a final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter determines that Indemnitee sold or purchased the
Company's securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or any similar successor statute;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. <u>Compensation Recovery Claims</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection
with any Claims for any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation
or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required under the Exchange Act (including any
such reimbursements that rise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002, as amended (the **"Sarbanes-Oxley Act"**), or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and
sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. <u>Indemnitee Claims</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection with any
Claims initiated or brought voluntarily by Indemnitee not by way of defense, except with respect to Claims brought to establish or enforce
a right to indemnification under this Agreement, the Company's Certificate and Bylaws or any applicable law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. <u>Unlawful Indemnification</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection with
any Claims for which a final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter determines that such indemnification is not lawful;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. <u>Fraud</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for Expenses arising from or in connection with any Claims for which
a final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter determines that Indemnitee has committed fraud on the Company; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f. <u>Insurance</u>. To indemnify Indemnitee for which payment is actually and fully made to Indemnitee under
a valid and collectible insurance policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Period of Limitations</u>. No legal action shall be brought and no
cause of action shall be asserted by or in the right of the Company against Indemnitee or Indemnitee's estate, spouse, heirs, executors
or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, and any
claim or cause of action of the Company shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action
within such five (5) year period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause
of action, such shorter period shall govern.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Construction of Certain Phrases.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. For purposes of this Agreement, references to the **"Company"** shall include, in addition
to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or
merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, employees,
agents or fiduciaries, so that if Indemnitee is or was or may be deemed a director, officer, employee, agent, control person, or fiduciary
of such constituent corporation, or is or was or may be deemed to be serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director,
officer, employee, control person, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust
or other enterprise, Indemnitee shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the resulting
or surviving corporation as Indemnitee would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. For purposes of this Agreement, references to **"other enterprise"** shall include any
employee benefit plan of the Company; references to **"fines"** shall include any excise taxes assessed on Indemnitee with
respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to **"serving at the request of the Company"** shall include any service
as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer,
employee, agent or fiduciary with respect to an employee benefit plan of the Company, its participants or its beneficiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. For purposes of this Agreement a **"Change in Control"** shall be deemed to have occurred
if (i) any **"person"** (as such term is used in Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act), other than a
trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or a corporation owned directly or indirectly
by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, (A) who is or becomes
the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of the
Company's then outstanding Voting Securities, increases beneficial ownership of such securities by 5% or more, or (B) becomes the **"beneficial owner"** (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Company representing more than 30% of the total voting power represented by the Company's then outstanding Voting Securities, (ii)
during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director
whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds
(2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for
election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof, or (iii) the stockholders of the Company approve
a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the Voting
Securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted
into Voting Securities of the surviving entity) at least two-thirds (2/3) of the total voting power represented by the Voting Securities
of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders of the Company
approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of (in one transaction
