the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. Except as set forth in Section 3.3 below, Employee shall devote substantially all
his business time, energy, skill and attention to the business of the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to all of the benefits
and profits arising from or incident to all such work, services, and advice of Employee rendered to the Company during the Term.

 

3.3. Side

5.2. Corporate

with a right to review and accept various business opportunities that may be complimentary to the Company’s business operations,
except as set forth in Section 3.3. Any business opportunity that is rejected by the Company in writing will then be excluded
from the restrictions otherwise applicable to Employee under this Section 5.2.

 

6. Termination

or, if otherwise provided in an applicable employee benefit plan, in accordance with the time and form of payment provisions of such
plan, in accordance with applicable law. For purposes of this Agreement “Disability” shall mean that Employee has
been prevented from working for more than a continuous period of six (6) months, or for shorter periods aggregating more than six (6)
months in any consecutive twelve (12) month period, because of physical or mental incapacity or other disability for which Employee has
been provided all legally required leaves of absence and reasonable accommodations.

 

6.2. Termination
Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason. If (1) Company terminates Employee’s employment during the Initial Term other
than (a) due to Employee’s death or Disability or (b) for Cause (as defined below); or (2) if Employee resigns from Employee’s
employment for Good Reason (as defined below) during the Initial Term, Employee shall receive the Accrued Amounts on the Date of Termination
and, in addition, subject to the Severance Conditions below, (i) Company shall provide a severance payment equal to three (3) months
of Employee’s salary as of the Date of Termination (the “Severance Payment”), divided and paid in equal installments
over a period of three (3) months in accordance with Company’s regular payroll practices starting on the first regular payday occurring
after the effective date of the Release (as defined below), and (ii) the Company will reimburse Employee for COBRA premiums (at the coverage
levels and at the Company-paid rate in effect immediately prior to such termination) for Employee and Employee’s covered dependents
until the earliest of (A) the date that is three (3) months following the Date of Termination, (B) the date that Employee (or Employee’s
spouse or dependents, as applicable) are no longer eligible for COBRA coverage or (C) the date when Employee receives substantially equivalent
health insurance coverage in connection with new employment (the “COBRA Benefit”). Company’s obligation to pay
Employee the Severance Payment and COBRA Benefit shall be conditioned on Employee’s satisfaction of the following (the “Severance
Conditions”): (1) Employee must first sign, and allow to become effective, a mutually-approved separation agreement, which
shall include a full general release in a form acceptable to Company, releasing all claims, known or unknown, that Employee may have
against Company arising out of or any way related to Employee’s employment or termination of employment with Company (the “Release”);
and (2) on or before the effective date of the Release, Employee must have (i) reconfirmed Employee’s agreement to abide by all
of the surviving provisions of this Agreement and any other agreement between Employee and Company, (ii) agreed to cooperate in the transition
of Employee’s employment; and (iii) agreed not to make any voluntary statements, written or oral, that defame or disparage the
personal and/or business reputations, practices, or conduct of the Company or any of its affiliates, except for any statements that constitute
protected or privileged conduct under applicable law. All other Company obligations to Employee will be automatically terminated and
completely extinguished except as provided by law. In the event that Employee is terminated without Cause or Employee terminates his
employment without Good Reason, Employee shall be under no obligation to mitigate any damages.

 

    	3

     

    

 

6.3. Termination
for Cause. Company shall have the right at any time, upon written notice to Employee, to terminate Employee’s employment immediately
for Cause. If Company terminates Employee’s employment for Cause, Employee shall have no right to receive any further compensation
other than the Accrued Amounts. In the event that Company terminates Employee’s employment for Cause, Company shall pay Employee
Employee’s Accrued Amounts on the Date of Termination.

 

As
used herein “Cause” shall mean: (a) conviction or entry of a plea of nolo contendere for any felony; (b) embezzlement,
misappropriation, fraud, dishonesty, unethical business conduct, or breach of fiduciary duty to Company or any affiliate (other than
those acts that are curable without damage to the Company and/or its affiliates, in which case Employee will have ten (10) days to cure
such breach following written notice thereof to Employee by Company, and other than those acts that do not result in material harm to
the Company); (c) inability or refusal to substantially perform Employee’s duties hereunder and Employee’s failure to cure
such condition within 30 days after receiving written notice thereof by the Company; (d) failure to follow reasonable and lawful directions
from the persons to whom Employee reports and Employee’s failure to cure such condition within 30 days after receiving written
notice thereof by the Company; (e) excessive use of alcohol or illegal drugs that materially interferes with performance of Employee’s
obligations to Company or any affiliate, continuing after written warning; (f) commission of any willful or intentional act which materially
injures the reputation, business or business relationships of Company, any affiliate, Employee or other employees of Company or any affiliates;
(g) willful disregard or violation of Company’s or any affiliate’s written policies regarding harassment or discrimination,
or any other material violation of Company’s or any affiliate’s written policies as in effect from time to time and Employee’s
failure to cure such breach within 30 days after receiving written notice thereof by the Company; (h) gross negligence or willful misconduct
in the performance of Employee’s duties or with regard to the assets, business or employees of Company or any affiliates; (i) intentional
usurpation of a material corporate opportunity; or (j) intentional misappropriation, unauthorized use or disclosure of Proprietary Information
that results in a material breach of this Agreement.

 

As
used herein “Good Reason” shall mean Employee’s resignation due to the occurrence of any of the following conditions
which occurs without Employee’s written consent, provided that the requirements regarding advance notice and an opportunity to
cure set forth below are satisfied: (i) a material reduction of Employee’s duties, authority, responsibilities or reporting relationship
relative to Employee’s duties, authority, responsibilities or reporting relationship as in effect immediately prior to such reduction;
(ii) a reduction in Employee’s then-current salary; (iii) any material breach by the Company or any successor company of any material
provision of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (as such term is defined in the Membership Purchase Agreement); (iv) any material
breach by HUMBL or any successor company of any material provision of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including, without
limitation, its promissory note obligations to Phantom Power; (v) the failure of any acquirer or successor to the Company or any affiliate
of such affiliate or successor to assume or otherwise continue the obligations under this Agreement; (vi) the Company (or its successor)
conditions Employee’s continued service on Employee being transferred to a site of employment that would increase Employee’s
one-way commute by more than 5 miles from Employee’s then principal residence; (vii) commission of any willful or intentional act,
including, without limitation, harassment or discrimination, by HUMBL or its officers or directors which materially injures the reputation,
business or business relationships of Company, any affiliate, Employee or other employees of Company or any affiliates; or (viii) intentional
misappropriation, unauthorized use or disclosure of Proprietary Information belonging to the Company’s clients that results in
a breach of the Company’s agreements. In order for Employee to resign for Good Reason, Employee must provide written notice to
the Company of the existence of the Good Reason condition within 90 days of the initial existence of such Good Reason condition. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Company will have 30 days during which it may remedy the Good Reason condition, Employee may suspend work
for the Company, and the Company will not be required to provide the termination payments or benefits described herein as a result of
such proposed resignation. If the Good Reason condition is not remedied within such 30-day period, Employee may resign based on the Good
Reason condition specified in the notice effective no later than 60 days following the expiration of the 30-day cure period.

6.4. Employee
Resignation. If Employee resigns from Employee’s employment for any reason other than for Good Reason during the Initial Term,
Employee’s resignation shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in such event, only
the following shall apply: (i) Company shall pay Employee Employee’s Accrued Amounts on the Date of Termination, (ii) all other
Company obligations to Employee hereunder, and all Employee’s obligations to Company hereunder, shall be automatically terminated
and completely extinguished, (iii) this Agreement shall be automatically terminated, and (iv) each party shall have no claims against
or liability to the other party under this Agreement. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Initial Term, Employee may only
resign after first providing 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company.

 

6.5. No
Further Obligations. The amounts and benefits provided for in this Section shall be in lieu of any termination or severance payments
or benefits for which Employee may be eligible or entitled, now or in the future, under any of the plans, policies, or programs of Company
or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. In addition, the amounts and benefits provided for in this Section shall be inclusive of all
statutory severance payable or otherwise provided to Employee in relation to Employee’s employment by Company and the termination
of Employee’s employment under this Agreement and compensation for all required notice periods. Except as otherwise expressly set
forth in this Section, from and after the date of such termination, Employee shall (i) have no right to receive any further compensation
(including salary or bonus) hereunder, and, (ii) except to the extent required by law, cease to be covered under or be permitted to actively
participate in any benefits plans or programs.

 

6.6. Resignation
from Officer Positions. If Employee’s employment with Company terminates for any reason, Employee shall be deemed to have resigned
at that time from any and all positions that Employee may have held with Company or any of its affiliates, as designated by Company,
or any other positions that Employee held on behalf of Company. If, for any reason, this Section is deemed insufficient to effectuate
such resignation, following a reasonable opportunity to review, Employee hereby authorizes Company to execute any documents or instruments
consistent herewith which Company may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate such resignation or resignations, and to act as Employee’s
attorney-in-fact. Company will provide Employee with a copy of such documents.

 

6.7. Section
409A. Certain payments and benefits payable under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service
guidance thereunder. To the extent the payments and benefits under the Agreement are subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Agreement
shall be interpreted, construed and administered in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Sections 409A (a) (2), (3) and (4) of
the Code and the Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement
is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. If the parties determine
that any payments or benefits payable under this Agreement subject to Section 409A of the Code do not comply with Section 409A of the
Code, Company and Employee agree to amend this Agreement, or take such other actions as Company and Employee reasonably deem necessary
or appropriate, to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, while preserving benefits that are, in the aggregate, no
less favorable than the benefits as provided to Employee under this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement would cause such payments
or benefits to fail to so comply, such provision shall not be effective and shall be null and void with respect to such payments or benefits,
and such provision shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.

7. Noncompetition
and Nonsolicitation with the Company’s NFT Business.

more than one percent of the voting stock of any publicly traded entity that competes with the Company. However, the Company hereby acknowledges
Employee’s ownership of Phantom Power, and expressly agrees that such ownership by Employee, and/or the provisions of service by
Employee to Phantom Power under Section 3.3, shall not be deemed competitive or otherwise in breach of Employee’s obligations
to the Company, provided that during the Term, Phantom Power does not expand into areas that it did not operate prior to the Closing

Reason during the Initial Term, during the Restricted Period, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control,
participate in, perform services for, be employed by, or otherwise carry on, a business similar to or competitive with the Company’s
business anywhere in the United States or location in which the Company, during the Initial Term, is engaged or intends to become engaged
in the Company’s business. However, during the Restricted Period, Employee may continue to own and operate Phantom Power, provided
that Phantom Power does not expand into areas that it did not operate prior to the Closing Date.

 

7.2. Nonsolicitation
of Company Employees. During the Restricted Period, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, recruit, solicit, induce, or influence
(or seek to induce or influence) any person who is employed by, hired by, affiliated with, or acts as a consultant, independent contractor,
or salesperson for, HUMBL or the Company to terminate or alter his/her relationship with HUMBL or the Company. Notwithstanding the forgoing,
the prohibition in this Section 7.2 shall not restrict Employee or its designee from soliciting for employment or engagement,
offering to hire or engage and/or hiring or engaging any person (i) who responds to general solicitation of employment or engagement
(including through the use of advertisements or recruiting firms), or (ii) who ceases to be employed or engaged by the Company prior

7.3. Nonsolicitation

the prior two (2) years, a customer or potential customer, or supplier or potential supplier, of the Company or HUMBL to terminate or
alter in any way such customer’s, client’s, or supplier’s relationship with the Company or HUMBL, nor shall Employee
call on or solicit any such customers, clients or suppliers with respect to or on behalf of any business similar to or competitive with
the Company’s or HUMBL’s NFT business. However, this Section 7.3 shall not apply to the Company’s Pre-Closing
Business, and during the Restricted Period, Employee shall be permitted to solicit any customer, client, or supplier with respect to
work in any business or industry in which the Company operated prior to the Closing Date, including without limitation, the entertainment
industry. 

 

7.3.1 Resignation
During the Initial Term Without Good Reason. If Employee resigns from Employee’s employment for any reason other than for Good
Reason during the Initial Term, during the Restricted Period, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent
of the Company, solicit, encourage or take any other action which is intended to induce or encourage, or has the effect of inducing or
encouraging, any customer, client or supplier who or which is, or had been within the prior two (2) years, a customer or potential customer,
or supplier or potential supplier, of the Company or HUMBL to terminate or alter in any way such customer’s, client’s, or
supplier’s relationship with the Company or HUMBL, nor shall Employee call on or solicit any such customers, clients or suppliers
with respect to or on behalf of any business similar to or competitive with the Company’s or HUMBL’s NFT business.

 

7.4. Remedies.
Employee expressly agrees and acknowledges that the covenant not to compete and the nonsolicitation covenants contained in this Section
7 are for the Company’s protection because of the nature and scope of the Company’s business and Employee’s position
with and the scope of the duties, responsibilities and obligations delegated to Employee by the Company hereby. If any of the covenants
or agreements contained in this Section 7 are materially violated or breached by Employee, Employee agrees and acknowledges that
any such material violation or breach will cause irreparable injury to the Company and that the remedy at law for any such material violation
or breach will be inadequate and that the Company will be entitled to injunctive relief and other equitable remedies. The noncompetition
and nonsolicitation provisions set forth in Sections 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 hereof, respectively, shall be extended by any period of
time during which Employee is in material violation or breach of this Section 7.

 

7.5. Interpretation.
It is the intention of the parties hereto that the noncompetition and nonsolicitation covenants contained in this Section 7 be
enforced to the greatest extent (but to no greater extent) in time, scope, and degree of participation as is permitted by applicable
law. To this end, the parties hereto agree that such covenants shall be construed to extend in time and territory and with respect to
degree of participation only so far as they may be enforced, and that such covenants are to that end hereby declared divisible and severable
because it is a purpose of this Agreement to govern competition by Employee anywhere in the United States in which the Company, during
the Restricted Period, is engaged or intends to become engaged in the Company’s business.

 

7.6. Employee
Acknowledgement. Employee acknowledges that Employee’s covenants and agreements in this Section 7 are reasonable and necessary
to protect the Company’s legitimate interest in its proprietary information and goodwill. Employee acknowledges that this Section
7 is not so broad as to prevent Employee from earning a livelihood or practicing Employee’s chosen profession after termination
or expiration of this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that the covenants and agreements in this Section 7 shall remain
enforceable if the Company terminates Employee’s relationship with the Company under this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges
and agrees that without such restrictions, the Company would not have entered into this Agreement.

or any part thereof is unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to
