                                         claims or facts in addition to or different from those which he now knows or believes
                                         to exist with respect to the subject matter of this AGREEMENT and which, if known or

                                         this AGREEMENT; and

 

		(g)	he
                                         was advised, in writing, by way of this AGREEMENT, that he has at least twenty-one (21)
                                         calendar days within which to consider this AGREEMENT before signing it and, in the event
                                         that he signs this AGREEMENT during this time period, said signing constitutes a knowing
                                         and voluntary waiver of this time period; and

                                         next business day to revoke. If EXECUTIVE elects to revoke this AGREEMENT, he shall notify

                                         with written receipt, of his revocation. Any determination of whether EXECUTIVE’s
                                         revocation was timely sent shall be determined by the date of actual receipt by GC. Any
                                         determination of whether EXECUTIVE’s non-revocation was timely sent shall be determined
                                         by the date of actual receipt by GC.

 

5. EXECUTIVE
represents and warrants that neither he nor anyone on his behalf has filed any suits, claims or the like regarding his employment
with EMPLOYER and/or its termination. To the extent that EXECUTIVE or any third party seeks redress for a RELEASED CLAIM(S) covered
and released by this AGREEMENT and a settlement or judgment of said RELEASED CLAIM(S) is reached or entered, EXECUTIVE shall designate
RGC as the recipient of any such monies allocated to him by the payor or, if that is not possible, EXECUTIVE shall pay to RGC
the amount received from the payor within 72 hours of EXECUTIVE’s receipt of said monies.

 

6. EXECUTIVE
has not and shall not, without the prior written consent of the individual then holding the office of GC, disclose the terms of
this AGREEMENT, including, but not by way of limitation, the amount or fact of any payment to be made under this AGREEMENT or
any of the facts or events surrounding or leading to this AGREEMENT (including any characterization thereof) to any person (including,
but not limited to, current or former employees of EMPLOYER) or entity other than his spouse, attorneys, tax or financial advisors,
or lenders for the purpose of confidential legal or financial counseling, or as otherwise required by law, or for purposes of
enforcement of this AGREEMENT. In the event that EXECUTIVE makes a disclosure permitted by this provision, he shall inform the
individual or entity to whom disclosure is made of this confidentiality provision, and instruct such individual or entity that
any breach of confidentiality by them would constitute a breach of this AGREEMENT.

 

7. Notwithstanding
anything set forth in this AGREEMENT to the contrary, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that EXECUTIVE (or anyone
to whom he makes a disclosure to pursuant to Paragraph 6 of this AGREEMENT) breaches the terms of this AGREEMENT, RGC’s
obligations under this AGREEMENT shall immediately cease and be deemed modified such that RGC’s obligations pursuant to
Paragraph 2 of this AGREEMENT shall be limited to $500.00 and all monies actually paid to or on behalf of EXECUTIVE under the
terms of this AGREEMENT, in excess of said $500.00, shall be returned in full by EXECUTIVE to RGC within 72 hours of such determination,
to the extent permitted by law and to the extent that such repayment does not result in the invalidation of this AGREEMENT; at
that time, $250.00 shall be deemed to be the portion of the payments made pursuant to this AGREEMENT apportioned to any claim
under the ADEA and $250.00 shall be deemed to be the portion of the payments made pursuant to this AGREEMENT apportioned to any
RELEASED CLAIM(S) otherwise released by this AGREEMENT. EMPLOYER, in addition to any other rights it may have at law or in equity,
shall have the right to seek enforcement of this AGREEMENT in an action at law or in equity and EMPLOYER shall have the right

(ii) testifying, assisting or participating in an investigation, hearing or proceeding conducted by or filing a charge or complaint

is precluded from receiving compensation as a result any such action; (iii) providing truthful information to or retaining an
attorney; and/or (iv) disclosing the underlying facts and circumstances of alleged unlawful discrimination or harassment that

10. EMPLOYER
shall be entitled to plead this AGREEMENT as a complete defense to any claim or entitlement relating to EXECUTIVE’s employment
with EMPLOYER or cessation thereof which hereafter may be asserted by EXECUTIVE or other persons or agencies acting on his behalf

11. Each
provision of this AGREEMENT is severable and, if any term or provision is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable by a court
of competent jurisdiction or by an administrative agency for any reason whatsoever, such ruling shall not affect the validity
of the remainder of this AGREEMENT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the release provisions (or any portion thereof) contained
in this AGREEMENT are held to be invalid, void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an administrative agency
for any reason whatsoever, as a result of actions or inactions by EXECUTIVE or anyone on his behalf, such ruling shall render
this AGREEMENT void and EXECUTIVE shall repay to RGC all monies paid to or on behalf of EXECUTIVE as set forth in this AGREEMENT
within 72 hours of such determination, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent that such repayment does not result in
the invalidation of this AGREEMENT.

This
Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 20th
day of November, 2020, by and between Andina Gold Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Patricia

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. EMPLOYMENT OF EMPLOYEE.

 

1.1 Duties
and Status. The Company hereby engages and employs Employee as General Counsel & Corporate Secretary, and Employee
accepts such employment, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. During his/her employment with
the Company, Employee shall faithfully exercise such authority and perform such duties on behalf of the Company as are normally
associated with his/her title and position, and Employee shall abide by all policies and procedures applicable to all other salaried
employees of the Company. Employee’s position may be changed by the Company in its sole discretion, and if that occurs, Employee’s
duties and authority will be changed as a result.

 

1.2 Time
and Effort. During his/her employment, in consideration of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, Employee
agrees that he/she shall devote his/her entire working time, energy, skill, and best efforts to the performance of his/her duties
hereunder in a manner that will faithfully and diligently further the business and interests of the Company; provided, however,
Employee may participate in charitable, civic, consulting and community activities so long as such service or participation does
not conflict with, or adversely affect Employee’s performance of his/her duties under this Agreement and obligations as an
office of the Company.

 

2. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.

 

2.1 Base
Salary. Employee’s salary shall be $220,000 on an annualized basis (the “Base Salary”), subject to tax
withholdings, which will be payable in equal periodic installments according to the Employer’s customary payroll practices,
but no less frequently than monthly.

 

2.2 Benefits. Employee
shall be entitled to receive such employee benefits as the Company may provide from time to time to its salaried employees
generally, all on the same terms and conditions as such employee benefits are made available to the Company’s salaried
employees generally.

 

     

     

    

 

2.3 Vacation.
Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation and paid personal days, together with leave of absence and leave for illness or
temporary disability, in accordance with the policies of the Company in effect from time to time.

 

3. TERM.
Subject to the provisions of Section 5, Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall be for a period of twelve (12) months,

“at-will” basis at the mutual consent of the parties; to wit, the Company or the Employee may terminate the employment
relationship with or without cause and/or with or without notice after December 1, 2021.

 

 4. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS, CONFIDENTIALITY, ETC.

 

4.1 Terms.
Employee covenants and agrees that, during the period of his/her employment by the Company (for the purposes of this Section 4,
the term “Company” shall be deemed to include the Company and any of its subsidiaries/affiliates at such applicable
time), he/she will not, directly or indirectly:

 

(a) solicit
for employment any employee of the Company or otherwise encourage any such employee to sever his/her employment relationship with
the Company;

 

(b) solicit
the business of any customer of the Company or otherwise encourage any customer of the Company to sever or curtail its relationship
with the Company;

 

(c) interfere
with or induce or cause the termination or reduction of the business relationship between the Company and any supplier of goods
or services to the Company; or

 

(d) perform
or engage in any business, or accept employment with (as a consultant or otherwise), or otherwise give assistance to, whether or
not for compensation, any person, firm or corporation that provides goods or services that are competitive to those by the Company
at such time or in development at such time.

 

In the
event that any provision of this Section 4.1 is determined to be invalid or overbroad by any court or other entity of competent
jurisdiction, to the extent permissible under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, the provisions of this Section 4.1 shall
be deemed to have been amended, and the parties shall execute all documents necessary to evidence such amendment, so as to eliminate
or modify any such invalid or overbroad provision so as to carry out the intent of this Section 4.1 as far as possible and to render
the terms of this Section 4.1 enforceable in all respects as so modified.

 

    2

     

    

 

4.2
Confidential Information.

 

(a)
Except as specifically authorized by the Company in writing, from the date hereof and continuing forever, Employee agrees
that he/she will not, directly or indirectly, (i) disclose any “Confidential Information” (as defined
below) to any person or entity, or otherwise permit any person or entity to obtain or disclose any Confidential Information,
or (ii) use any Confidential Information for Employee’s benefit, whether directly or on behalf of another person or
entity. In the event that Employee is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any
legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential
Information, Employee will notify the Company promptly of the request or requirement so that the Company may seek an
appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 4.2. If, in the absence of a protective
order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Employee is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential
Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, Employee shall use his/her best efforts to obtain, at the
request and expense of the Company, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion
of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as the Company shall designate.

 

(b) For
purposes hereof, the term “Confidential Information” means any and all information and compilations of information,
in whatever form or medium (including any copies thereof), relating to any part of the Company or its business, provided to Employee
or to which Employee had access or which he/she obtained or compiled or had obtained or compiled on his/her behalf, which information
or compilations of information are not a matter of public record, not generally known to the public or have not been previously
disclosed to the public by third parties, including, without limitation: (i) financial information regarding the Company; (ii)
internal plans, practices, and procedures of the Company; (iii) the identities, addresses, or requirements of the suppliers, customers
or clients of the Company; (iv) any other information relating to the operations of the Company expressly deemed confidential by
the Company; (v) personnel data, including compensation arrangements, relating to any employee of the Company; (vi) the terms and
conditions of any agreements, documents, and instruments to which the Company is a party; and (vii) any trade secrets of the Company.

 

(c) Nothing
in this Agreement prohibits Employee from disclosing Confidential Information (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government
official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) in connection
with or response to, a complaint or other document filed in a proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Moreover, if Employee
files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose Confidential Information
to Employee’s attorney and use the Confidential Information in the proceeding if Employee files any document containing the
Confidential Information under seal and does not disclose the Confidential Information except pursuant to court order.

 

    3

     

    

 

4.3 Reasonable
Restrictions. Employee acknowledges and confirms that the restrictions and covenants contained in this Section 4 are
reasonably necessary to protect the good will, trade secrets, and legitimate interests of the Company, are not overbroad,
overlong, or unfair (including in duration and scope), and are not the result of overreaching, duress, or coercion of any
kind. Employee further acknowledges and confirms that Employee’s full, uninhibited, and faithful observance of each of
the covenants contained in this Agreement will not cause any undue hardship, financial or otherwise, and that enforcement of
each of the covenants contained herein will not impair Employee’s ability to obtain employment commensurate with
Employee’s abilities and on terms fully acceptable to Employee or otherwise to obtain income required for the
comfortable support of Employee and Employee’s family and the satisfaction of the needs of Employee’s creditors.
Employee acknowledges and confirms that the violation of these covenants and the disclosure of Confidential Information would
cause the Company serious, irreparable injury or loss. Employee acknowledges and confirms that his/her special abilities and
knowledge of the Company’s business, trade secrets, and Confidential Information are such that it would cause the
Company serious, irreparable injury or loss if he/she were to use such abilities and knowledge to the benefit of a competitor
or were to otherwise violate these covenants. Employee further acknowledges and confirms that the restrictions contained in
this Agreement are intended to be, and shall be, for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by, the Company’s
successors and assigns, and that each such entity shall be deemed third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement such that each
such entity has standing to sue to enforce the Agreement.

 

4.4 Legal
and Equitable Remedies. Employee acknowledges and confirms that for any breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions
of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief and that a restraining order and/or an injunction
may issue against Employee to prevent or restrain any such breach or threatened breach, in addition to any other rights or remedies
at law the Company may have.

 

4.5 Company
Property. All the Company’s property, equipment, funds, books, records, files, memoranda, reports, lists, drawings,
plans, sketches, documents, computer files, trade secrets, Confidential Information, inventions, and other material (together with
all copies thereof), which Employee shall use, prepare or come in contact with or possession of during the course of, or as a result
of, Employee’s employment shall, as between the parties hereto, remain the sole property of the Company. Upon the termination
of Employee’s employment or upon the prior request of the Company, Employee shall immediately return all such property or
materials and thereafter shall not remove or cause to be removed such materials from the premises of the Company.

 

4.6
Intellectual Property Rights.

 

(a)
Employee acknowledges and confirms that the results and proceeds of Employee’s services for the Company (including, but
not limited to, any trade secrets, products, services, processes, know-how, track record, designs, developments, innovations,
analyses, reports, techniques, formulas, methods, developmental or experimental work, improvements, discoveries, inventions,
and source and object codes) and resulting from services performed while providing services hereunder to the Company and any
works in progress, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, that were made, developed,
conceived or reduced to practice or learned by Employee, either alone or jointly with others, while providing services to the
Company (collectively, “Inventions”), shall be works-made-for-hire and the Company (or, if applicable, any
of its subsidiaries) shall be deemed the sole owner throughout the universe of any and all trade secret, patent, copyright
and other intellectual property rights (collectively, “Proprietary Rights”) of whatsoever nature therein,
whether or not now or hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized or developed, with the right to use the same in
perpetuity in any manner determined by the Company, without any further payment to Employee whatsoever. If, for any reason,
any of such results and proceeds shall not legally be a work-made-for-hire and/or there are any Proprietary Rights which do
not accrue to the Company (or, as the case may be, any of its subsidiaries) under the immediately preceding sentence, then
Employee hereby irrevocably assigns and shall assign any and all of Employee’s right, title and interest thereto,
including any and all Proprietary Rights of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing,
contemplated, recognized or developed, to the Company (or, if applicable, any of its subsidiaries/affiliates), and the
Company or such subsidiaries/affiliates shall have the right to use the same in perpetuity throughout the universe in any
manner determined by the Company or such subsidiaries/affiliates without any further payment to Employee whatsoever. As to
any Invention that Employee is required to assign, Employee shall promptly and fully disclose to the Company all information
known to Employee concerning such Invention.

 

    4

     

    

 

(b) Employee
acknowledges and confirms that, from time to time, as may be requested by the Company and at the Company’s sole cost and
expense, Employee shall do any and all things reasonably requested to establish or document the Company’s exclusive ownership
throughout the United States of America or any other country of any and all Proprietary Rights in any such Inventions, including
the execution of appropriate copyright and/or patent applications or assignments. To the extent Employee has any Proprietary Rights
in the Inventions that cannot be assigned in the manner described above, Employee unconditionally and irrevocably waives the enforcement
of such Proprietary Rights against the Company. This Section 4.6(b) is subject to and shall not be deemed to limit, restrict or
constitute any waiver by the Company of any Proprietary Rights of ownership to which the Company may be entitled by operation of
law by virtue of the Employee providing services to the Company. Employee further acknowledges and confirms that, from time to
time, as may be requested by the Company and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, Employee shall assist the Company in
every proper and lawful way to obtain and from time to time enforce Proprietary Rights relating to Inventions in any and all countries.
To this end, Employee shall execute, verify and deliver such documents and perform such other acts (including appearances as a
witness) as may be reasonably requested for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing, sustaining, and enforcing such
Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, Employee shall execute, verify, and deliver assignments of such Proprietary
Rights to the Company or its designees at the Company’s sole cost and expense. Employee’s obligation to assist the
Company with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination
of Employee’s employment.

 

(c) Employee
hereby waives and quitclaims to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that Employee now or may hereafter have
for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to the Company.

 

4.7 Survival
of Restrictive Covenants and Confidentiality Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
if the employment of Employee is terminated for any reason either during the Term or thereafter, the provisions and covenants of

competent, the Employee’s legal guardian or duly authorized attorney in fact will act in the Employee’s stead for
the purposes of submitting the Employee to the examinations, and providing the authorization of disclosure, required under
this provision.
