2.
Position, Services. 

 

a.
Services. Advisor shall perform those services (“Services”) as reasonably requested by Company
from time to time, including but not limited to the Services described on Exhibit A attached hereto. Advisor shall devote Advisor’s
commercially reasonable efforts and attention to the performance of the Services for Company on a timely basis. Advisor shall
also make himself available to answer questions, provide advice and provide Services to Company upon reasonable request and notice
from Company.

 

b.
Independent Contractor; No Conflict. It is understood and agreed that Advisor is an independent contractor, and not the
employee, agent, joint venturer, or partner of Company for any purposes whatsoever. Advisor shall be solely responsible for any
and all taxes related to the receipt of any compensation under this Agreement. Advisor hereby represents, warrants and covenants
that Advisor has the right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and that neither the execution nor delivery of this
Agreement, nor the performance of the Services by Advisor will conflict with or result in a breach of, or default under, any contract,
covenant or instrument under which Advisor is now or hereinafter becomes obligated.

 

3.
Compensation, Benefits, Expenses.

 

a.
Compensation. As full and complete consideration of the Services to be rendered hereunder, Company shall pay Advisor
the Compensation described on Exhibit A attached hereto.

 

     

     

    

 

b.
Reimbursement of Expenses. Company shall promptly reimburse Advisor for any reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by Advisor if: (i) for reimbursement exceeding $500, the Advisor received pre-approval from the Company’s CEO or other executive
officers and the activities conducted were on the behalf and for the company’s direct benefit; or (ii) if the reimbursement
was less than $500 no approval is required granted that the activities conducted were on the behalf and for the company’s
direct benefit. The Advisor may be required to furnish to Company adequate records and other documents reasonably acceptable to
Company evidencing such expenditure or cost and in line with accounting and/or IRS requirements.

 

4.
Proprietary Information; Work Product; Non-Disclosure. 

 

a.
Defined. Company has conceived, developed and owns, and continues to conceive and develop, certain property rights
and information, including but not limited to its business plans and objectives, customer or prospective customer information,
technology, inventions, whether or not patented, financial projections, marketing plans, marketing materials, logos, and designs,
and technical data, processes, know-how, algorithms, formulae, franchises, databases, computer programs, computer software, user
interfaces, source codes, object codes, architectures and structures, display screens, layouts, development tools and instructions,
templates, and other trade secrets, intangible assets and industrial or proprietary property rights which may or may not be related
directly or indirectly to Company’s business and all documentation, media or other tangible embodiment of or relating to
any of the foregoing and all proprietary rights therein of Company (all of which are hereinafter referred to as the “Proprietary
Information”). Although certain information may be generally known in the relevant industry, the fact that Company uses
it may not be so known. In such instance, the knowledge that Company uses the information would comprise Proprietary Information.
Furthermore, the fact that various fragments of information or data may be generally known in the relevant industry does not mean
that the manner in which Company combines them, and the results obtained thereby, are known. In such instance, that would also
comprise Proprietary Information.

 

b.
General Restrictions on Use. Advisor agrees to hold all Proprietary Information in confidence and not to, directly
or indirectly, disclose, use, copy, publish or summarize, any Proprietary Information, except (i) during the consulting relationship
to the extent authorized and necessary to carry out the Services, and (ii) after termination of the consulting relationship, only
as specifically authorized in writing by Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such restrictions shall not apply to: (x) information
which Advisor can show was rightfully in Advisor’s possession at the time of disclosure by Company; (y) information which
Advisor can show was received from a third party who lawfully developed the information independently of Company or obtained such
information from Company under conditions which did not require that it be held in confidence; or (z) information which, at the
time of disclosure, is generally available to the public.

 

c.
Ownership of Work Product. All Work Product shall be considered work(s) made by Advisor for hire for Company and
shall belong exclusively to Company and its designees. If by operation of law, any of the Work Product, including all related
intellectual property rights, is not owned in its entirety by Company automatically upon creation thereof, then Advisor agrees
to assign, and hereby assigns, to Company and its designees the ownership of such Work Product, including all related intellectual
property rights. “Work Product” shall include, without limitation, any writings (including excel, power point,
emails, etc.), programming, documentation, data compilations, reports, and any other media, materials, or other objects produced
as a result of Advisor’s work or delivered by Advisor in the course of performing that work.

 

    2 

     

    

 

d.
Incidents and Further Assurances. Company may obtain and hold in its own name patents, copyrights, registrations,
and other protection that may be available. Advisor agrees to provide any assistance required to perfect such protection. Advisor
agrees to take sure further actions and execute and deliver such further agreements and other instruments as Company may reasonably
request to give effect to this Section 4.

 

e.
Return of Proprietary Information. Upon termination of this Agreement, Advisor shall upon request by Company promptly
deliver to Company at Company’s sole cost and expense, all drawings, blueprints, manuals, specification documents, documentation,
source or object codes, tape discs and any other storage media, letters, notes, notebooks, reports, flowcharts, and all other
materials in its possession or under its control relating to the Proprietary Information and/or Services, as well as all other
property belonging to Company which is then in Advisor’s possession or under its control. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Advisor shall retain ownership of all works owned by Advisor prior to commencing work for Company hereunder, subject to Company’s
nonexclusive, perpetual, paid up right and license to use such works in connection with its use of the Services and any Work Product.

 

f.
Remedies/Additional Confidentiality Agreements. Nothing in this Section 4 is intended to limit any remedy of Company under
applicable state or federal law. At the request of Company, Advisor shall also execute Company’s standard “Confidentiality
Agreement” or similarly named agreement as such agreement is currently applied to and entered into by Company’s most
recent employees.

 

g.
Insider Trading Policy. Advisor has received and understands Company’s Insider Trading Policy (the “Policy”)
and acknowledges that it applies to and governs disclosure of, or trading on, any “material non-public information”
(as such term is defined in the Policy) to which Advisor may be exposed in the course of his performance of the Services. Advisor
agrees to adhere to the Policy and that it will seek any needed guidance as needed from the appropriate individuals, as specified
from time to time pursuant to the Policy,

 

5.
Non-Compete. During the Term and for a period of one year thereafter, Advisor shall not use Proprietary Information in a way
that could be injurious to Company or otherwise assist, or provide services to, any entity in direct competition with Company.

 

6.
Miscellaneous. 

 

a.
Notices. All notices required under this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given or made for all purposes upon
receipt of such written notice or communication. Notices to each party shall be sent to the address set forth in the preamble
to this Agreement above. Either party hereto may change the address to which such communications are to be directed by giving
written notice to the other party hereto of such change in the manner provided above.

 

    3 

     

    

 

b.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and any documents attached hereto as Exhibits constitute the entire agreement and understanding
between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein and therein, and supersede and replace any and all prior agreements
and understandings, whether oral or written with respect to such matters. The provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered,
amended or replaced in whole or in part only upon the written consent of both parties to this Agreement.

 

c.
Severability, Enforcement. If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be invalid or inoperative,
the validity and effect of the other provisions herein shall not be affected thereby, provided that no such severability shall
be effective if it causes a material detriment to any party.

 

d.
Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, enforceability, and performance of this Agreement shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. Venue for any and all disputes arising out of this Agreement
shall be the County of Wilmington, State of Delaware.

 

e.
Injunctive Relief. The parties agree that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any of the covenants in Section
4, the damage or imminent damage to the value and the goodwill of Company’s business will be irreparable and extremely difficult
to estimate, making any remedy at law or in damages inadequate. Accordingly, the parties agree that Company shall be entitled
to injunctive relief against Advisor in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any such provisions by Advisor, in addition
to any other relief (including damages) available to Company under this Agreement or under applicable state or federal law.

 

f.
Publicity. Company shall, with prior written approval by Advisor, have the right to use the name, biography and picture
of Advisor on Company’s website, marketing and advertising materials.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, each party hereto has duly executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date.
