RESOURCES, INC., a Delaware corporation, with a business address of 1610 Wynkoop Street, Suite

INTRODUCTION

 

WHEREAS, the Company
desires to employ the Executive under the title and capacity set forth on Schedule A hereto and the Executive desires to
be employed by the Company in such capacity, subject to the terms of this Agreement;

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and mutual promises herein below set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.          Employment
Period.  The term of the Executive’s employment by the Company (directly or through its subsidiary) pursuant
to this Agreement (the “Employment Period”) shall commence upon the date hereof (the “Effective Date”)
and shall continue for that period of calendar months from the Effective Date set forth on Schedule A hereto.  Thereafter,
the Employment Period shall automatically renew for successive periods of one (1) year each, unless either party shall have given
to the other at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of their intention not to renew the Executive’s employment
prior to the end of the Employment Period or the then applicable renewal term, as the case may be.  In any event, the
Employment Period may be terminated as provided herein.

 

2.           Employment;
Duties.  

 

(a)          General.          Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company shall employ the Executive to act for the Company during the Employment
Period in the capacity set forth on Schedule A hereto, and the Executive hereby accepts such employment.  The
duties and responsibilities of the Executive shall include such duties and responsibilities appropriate to such office as the Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board”) may from time to time reasonably assign to the Executive, as initially specified
on Schedule A attached hereto, with such authority and responsibilities, including Company-wide executive, administrative
and finance functions as are normally associated with and appropriate for such position.

 

(b)          Executive
recognizes that during the period of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive owes an undivided duty of loyalty to the
Company, and Executive will use Executive’s good faith efforts to promote and develop the business of the Company and its
subsidiaries (the Company’s subsidiaries from time to time, together with any other affiliates of the Company, the “Affiliates”).  Executive
shall devote all of Executive’s business time, attention and skills to the performance of Executive’s services as an
executive of the Company.  Recognizing and acknowledging that it is essential for the protection and enhancement of the
name and business of the Company and the goodwill pertaining thereto, Executive shall perform the Executive’s duties under
this Agreement professionally, in accordance with the applicable laws, rules and regulations and such standards, policies and procedures
established by the Company and the industry from time to time.    

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(c)          However,
the parties agree that:  (i) Executive may devote a reasonable amount of his time to civic, community, or charitable
activities and may serve as a director of other corporations (provided that any such other corporation is not a competitor of the
Company, as determined by the Board) and to other types of business or public activities not expressly mentioned in this paragraph
and (ii) Executive may participate as a non-employee director and/or investor in other companies and projects as described by Executive
to the Board, so long as Executive’s responsibilities with respect thereto do not conflict or interfere with the faithful
performance of his duties to the Company.  

 

(d)          Place
of Employment.            The Executive’s services shall
be performed at the Company’s offices located in Vancouver, British Columbia or Denver, Colorado, any other locus where the
Company now or hereafter has a business facility and at any other location where Executive’s presence is necessary to perform
his duties.  The parties acknowledge, however, that the Executive may be required to travel in connection with the performance
of his duties hereunder.

 

3.           Base
Salary.  The Executive shall be entitled to receive a salary from the Company during the Employment Period at a rate
per year indicated on Schedule A hereto (the “Base Salary”).  Once the Board has established
the Base Salary, such Base Salary may be increased on each anniversary of the Effective Date, at the Board’s sole discretion.  The
parties expressly agree that what the Executive receives now or in the future, in addition to the regular Base Salary, whether
this be in the form of benefits or regular or occasional aid/assistance, such as recreation, club memberships, meals, education
for his family, vehicle, lodging or clothing, occasional bonuses or anything else he receives, during the Employment Period and
any renewals thereof, in cash or in kind, shall not be deemed as salary.  However, because the Company is a public company
subject to the reporting requirements of, inter alia, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), both parties
acknowledge that the Executive’s annual compensation (as determined by the rules of the SEC or any other regulatory body
or exchange having jurisdiction), which may include some or all of the foregoing, may be required to be publicly disclosed.

 

4.           Bonus.  (a)
The Company may pay the Executive an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”), at such time and in such amount as may
be determined by the Board in its sole discretion.  The Board may or may not determine that all or any portion of the
Annual Bonus shall be earned upon the achievement of operational, financial or other milestones (“Milestones”)
established by the Board in consultation with the Executive and that all or any portion of any Annual Bonus shall be paid in cash,
securities or other property.

 

(b) The Executive shall
be eligible to participate in any other bonus or incentive program established by the Company for executives of the Company.

5.           Other
Benefits

 

(a)         Stock
Option Grant. The Executive shall be entitled to receive those stock options under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive
Plan as specified in Schedule A hereto.  Any additional option grants to the Executive shall be at the option
of the Board.

 

(b)         Insurance
and Other Benefits.  During the Employment Period, the Executive and the Executive’s dependents shall be entitled
to participate in the Company’s insurance programs and any ERISA benefit plans, as the same may be adopted and/or amended
from time to time (the “Benefits”).  The Executive shall be entitled to paid personal days on a basis
consistent with the Company’s other senior executives, as determined by the Board.  The Executive shall be bound
by all of the policies and procedures established by the Company from time to time.  However, in case any of those policies
conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

 

(c)         Vacation.  During
the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an annual vacation of at least that number of working days set forth
on Schedule A hereto.

 

(d)          Expense
Reimbursement.  The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable business, promotional, travel and entertainment
expenses incurred or paid by the Executive during the Employment Period in the performance of Executive’s services
under this Agreement, provided that the Executive furnishes to the Company appropriate documentation required by the Internal Revenue
Code in a timely fashion in connection with such expenses and shall furnish such other documentation and accounting as the Company
may from time to time reasonably request.

 

6.           Termination;
Compensation Due.  The Executive’s employment hereunder may terminate, and the Executive’s right
to compensation for periods after the date the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates shall be determined,
in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (e) below:

 

(a)         Voluntary
Resignation; Termination without Cause.  

 

(i)
Voluntary Resignation.          The Executive may terminate his employment
at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Company.  In the event of the Executive’s voluntary
termination of his employment other than for Good Reason (as defined below), the Company shall have no obligation to make payments
to the Executive in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3 or 4 above, except as otherwise required by this Agreement or
by applicable law, or to provide the benefits described in Section 5 above, for periods after the date on which the Executive’s
employment with the Company terminates due to the Executive’s voluntary termination, except for the payment of the Base
Salary accrued through the date of such resignation.

(ii)
Termination without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment
with the Company at any time with or without cause, by delivery to the Executive of a written notice of termination from the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company.

 

(A)    If
the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below): (1) the Company shall (x) continue
to pay the Executive the Base Salary (at the rate in effect on the date the Executive’s
employment is terminated) until the end of the Severance Period (as defined in Section 6(e) below), (y) with respect to the Annual
Bonus, to the extent the Milestones are achieved, pay the Executive a pro rata portion of the
Annual Bonus for the year of the Employment Period on the date such Annual Bonus would have been payable to the Executive
had the Executive remained employed by the Company, and (z) pay any other accrued compensation and Benefits;
and (2) any of the Executive’s unvested stock options as outlined on Schedule A attached hereto shall automatically
vest upon the Executive’s termination without Cause. The Executive shall not have any further
rights under this Agreement or otherwise to receive any other compensation or benefits after such termination of employment. 

 

(B)    If,
following a termination of employment without Cause, the Executive breaches the provisions of Sections 7, 8 or 9 hereof,
the Executive shall not be eligible, as of the date of such breach, for the payments and benefits described in Section 6
(a)(ii)(A) above, and any and all obligations and agreements of the Company with respect to such payments shall thereupon cease.

 

(b)          Discharge
for Cause.  Upon written notice to the Executive, the Company may terminate the Executive’s employment for
“Cause” if any of the following events shall occur:

 

(i)         any
act or omission that constitutes a material breach by the Executive of any of his obligations under this Agreement;

 

(ii)         the
willful and continued failure or refusal of the Executive to satisfactorily perform the duties reasonably required of him as an
employee of the Company;

 

(iii)         the
Executive’s conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, (i) any felony or (ii) a crime involving dishonesty
or moral turpitude or which could reflect negatively upon the Company or otherwise impair or impede its operations;

 

(iv)         the
Executive’s engaging in any misconduct, negligence, act of dishonesty (including, without limitation, theft or embezzlement),
violence, threat of violence or any activity that could result in any violation of federal securities laws, in each case, that
is injurious to the Company or any of its Affiliates;

 

(v)         the
Executive’s material breach of a written policy of the Company or the rules of any governmental or regulatory body applicable
to the Company;

 

(vi)          the
Executive’s refusal to follow the directions of the Board;

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

(vii)          any
other willful misconduct by the Executive which is materially injurious to the financial condition or business reputation of the
Company or any of its Affiliates, or

 

(viii)          the
Executive’s breach of his obligations under Section 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement.

 

In the event the Executive
is terminated for Cause, the Company shall have no obligation to make payments to the Executive in accordance with the provisions
of Sections 3 or 4 above, or, except as otherwise required by law, to provide the benefits described in Section 5 above, for periods
after the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated on account of the Executive’s discharge for Cause
except for the then applicable Base Salary accrued through the date of such termination.

 

(c)          Disability.  The
Company shall have the right, but shall not be obligated to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder in the event the
Executive becomes disabled such that he is unable to discharge his duties to the Company for a period of ninety (90)
consecutive days or one hundred twenty (120) days in any one hundred eighty (180) consecutive day period, provided longer periods
are not required under applicable local labor regulations (a “Permanent Disability”).  In the event
of a termination of employment due to a Permanent Disability, the Company shall be obligated to continue to make payments to the
Executive in an amount equal to the then applicable Base Salary for the Severance Period (as
defined below) after the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated due to a Permanent Disability.  A
determination of a Permanent Disability shall be made by a physician satisfactory to both the Executive and the Company; provided,
however, that if the Executive and the Company do not agree on a physician, the Executive and the Company shall each select
a physician and those two physicians together shall select a third physician, whose determination as to a Permanent Disability
shall be binding on all parties.

 

(d)          Death.  The
Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon the death of the Executive.  The Company shall have no obligation
to make payments to the Executive in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3 or 4 above, or, except as otherwise required
by law or the terms of any applicable benefit plan, to provide the benefits described in Section 5 above, for periods after the
date of the Executive’s death except for then applicable Base Salary earned and accrued through the date of death, payable
to the Executive or his successor.

 

(e)          Termination
for Good Reason.  The Executive may terminate this Agreement at any time for Good
Reason.  In the event of termination under this Section 6(e), the Company shall pay to the Executive
severance in an amount equal to the then applicable Base Salary for a period equal to the number of months set forth on
Schedule A hereto (the “Severance Period”), subject to the Executive’s
continued compliance with Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement for the applicable Severance Period following the Executive’s
termination, and subject to the Company’s regular payroll practices and required withholdings.  Such severance
shall be reduced by any cash remuneration paid to the Executive because of the Executive’s employment or self-employment
during the Severance Period.  The Executive shall continue to receive all Benefits during the Severance Period.  The
Executive shall not have any further rights under this Agreement or otherwise to receive any other compensation or benefits after
such resignation.  For the purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any of the following
(without Executive’s express written consent):  

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

(i) the assignment
to the Executive of duties that are significantly different from, and that result in a substantial diminution of, the duties that
he assumed on the Effective Date;

 

(ii) removal
of the Executive from his position as indicated on Schedule A hereto, or the assignment to the Executive of duties
that are significantly different from, and that result in a substantial diminution of, the duties that he assumed under this Agreement,
within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control (as defined below);

 

(iii) a
reduction by the Company in the then applicable Base Salary or other compensation, unless said reduction is pari passu with other
senior executives of the Company;

 

(iv)
the taking of any action by the Company that would, directly or indirectly, materially reduce the Executive’s benefits, unless
said reductions are pari passu with other senior executives of the Company; or 

 

(v) a
breach by the Company of any material term of this Agreement that is not cured by the Company within 30 days following receipt
by the Company of written notice thereof.

 

For purposes of this
Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) the accumulation,
whether directly, indirectly, beneficially or of record, by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3)
or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of 50% or more of the shares of
the outstanding equity securities of the Company, (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company does
not survive as an independent company or upon the consummation of which the holders of the Company’s outstanding equity securities
prior to such merger or consolidation own less than 50% of the outstanding equity securities of the Company after such merger or
consolidation, or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; provided, however, that the following
acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control for the purposes of this Agreement: (A) any acquisitions of common stock
or securities convertible into common stock directly from the Company, or (B) any acquisition of common stock or securities convertible
into common stock by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored by or maintained by the Company.

 

(f)    Notice
of Termination.    Any termination of employment by the Company or the Executive shall be communicated
by a written ‘‘Notice of Termination’’ to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 15

of this Agreement. In the event of a termination by the Company for Cause, the Notice of Termination shall
(i) indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) set forth in reasonable detail the
facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated
and (iii) specify the date of termination, which date shall be the date of such notice. The failure by the Executive or the
Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause shall not waive
any right of the Executive or the Company, respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from
asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

(g)    Resignation
from Directorships and Officerships.    The termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason
will constitute the Executive’s resignation from (i) any director, officer or employee position the Executive has with
the Company or any of its Affiliates, and (ii) all fiduciary positions (including as a trustee) the Executive holds with respect
to any employee benefit plans or trusts established by the Company. The Executive agrees that this Agreement shall serve as written
notice of resignation in this circumstance, unless otherwise required by any plan or applicable law.

 

7.           Non-Competition;
Non-Solicitation.  

 

(a)          For
the duration of the Employment Period and, unless the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause, during
the Severance Period (the “Non-compete Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, except as
specifically provided in the last sentence of Section 2(c) hereof, engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control
or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner
connected with, lend any credit to, or render services or advice to, any business, firm, corporation, partnership, association,
joint venture or other entity that engages or conducts any business the same as or substantially similar to the business of the
Company or any other business engaged in or proposed to be engaged in or conducted by the Company and/or any of its Affiliates
during the Employment Period, or then included in the future strategic plan of the Company and/or any of its Affiliates, anywhere
within the states in which the Company or any of its Affiliates at that time is operating; provided, however, that
the Executive may own less than 5% in the aggregate of the
outstanding shares of any class of securities of any enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such
enterprise) including those engaged in the mining business, other than any such enterprise with which the Company competes or is
currently engaged in a joint venture, if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been
registered under Section 12(b) or (g) of the Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Executive shall present
to the Board any opportunity within the scope of the prohibited activities described above, and the Company shall not elect to
pursue such opportunity within a reasonable time, then the Executive shall be permitted to pursue such opportunity, subject to
the requirements of Section 2(c) hereof.

 

(b)          During
the Employment Period and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination of the Executive’s employment with the
Company, the Executive shall not:

 

(i) persuade,
solicit or hire, or attempt to recruit, persuade, solicit or hire, any employee, or independent contractor of, or consultant to,
the Company, or its Affiliates, to leave the employment (or independent contractor relationship) thereof, whether or not any such
employee or independent contractor is party to an employment agreement; or

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

(ii) attempt
in any manner to solicit or accept from any customer or client of the Company or any of its Affiliates, with whom the Company or
any of its Affiliates had significant contact during the term of this Agreement, business of the kind or competitive with the business
done by the Company or any of its Affiliates with such customer or to persuade or attempt to persuade any such customer to cease
to do business or to reduce the amount of business which such customer has customarily done or is reasonably expected to do with
the Company or any of its Affiliates or if any such customer elects to move its business to a person other than the Company or
any of its Affiliates, provide any services (of the kind or competitive with the Business of the Company or any of its Affiliates)
for such customer, or have any discussions regarding any such service with such customer, on behalf of such other person.

 

The Executive recognizes
and agrees that because a violation by the Executive of his obligations under this Section 7 will cause irreparable harm to the
Company that would be difficult to quantify and for which money damages would be inadequate, the Company shall have the right to
injunctive relief to prevent or restrain any such violation, without the necessity of posting a bond. The Non-compete Period will
be extended by the duration of any violation by the Executive of any of his obligations under this Section 7.

 

The Executive expressly
agrees that the character, duration and scope of the covenant not to compete are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they
exist at the date upon which this Agreement has been executed.  However, should a determination nonetheless be made by
a court of competent jurisdiction at a later date that the character, duration or geographical scope of the covenant not to compete
is unreasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist, then it is the intention of the Executive, on the one hand, and
the Company, on the other, that the covenant not to compete shall be construed by the court in such a manner as to impose only
those restrictions on the conduct of the Executive which are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist and necessary
to assure the Company of the intended benefit of the covenant not to compete.

 

8.          Inventions
and Patents. The Executive acknowledges that all inventions, innovations, improvements, know-how, plans, development, methods,
designs, analyses, specifications, software, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable
or reduced to practice) which related to any of the Company’s actual or proposed business activities and which are created,
designed or conceived, developed or made by the Executive during the Executive’s past or future employment by the Company
or any Affiliates, or any predecessor thereof (“Work Product”), belong to the Company, or its Affiliates, as applicable.  Any
copyrightable work falling within the definition of Work Product shall be deemed a “work made for hire” and ownership
of all right title and interest shall rest in the Company.  The Executive hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys,
to the full extent permitted by law, all right, title and interest in the Work Product, on a worldwide basis, to the Company to
the extent ownership of any such rights does not automatically vest in the Company under applicable law.  The Executive
will promptly disclose any such Work Product to the Company and perform all actions requested by the Company (whether during or
after employment) to establish and confirm ownership of such Work Product by the Company (including, without limitation, assignments,
consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

9.           Confidentiality
Covenants.

 

(a)         The

should reasonably be assumed by the Executive to be confidential and proprietary to the Company or its Affiliates, or (iv) is
not generally known by non-Company personnel.  Such Confidential Information includes, without limitation, the following
types of information and other information of a similar nature (whether or not reduced to writing or designated as confidential):  

 

(i) Internal

prices, lists and agreements), purchasing and internal cost information, internal service and operational manuals, and the manner
and methods of conducting the business of the Company or its Affiliates;

     

(ii) Marketing
and development plans, price and cost data, price and fee amounts, pricing and billing policies, bidding, quoting procedures, marketing
techniques, forecasts and forecast assumptions and volumes, and future plans and potential strategies (including, without limitation,
all information relating to any acquisition prospect and the identity of any key contact within the organization of any acquisition
prospect) of the Company or its Affiliates which have been or are being discussed;

     

(iii) Names
of customers and their representatives, contracts (including their contents and parties), customer services, and the type, quantity,
specifications and content of products and services purchased, leased, licensed or received by customers of the Company or its
Affiliates; and

 

(iv) Confidential
and proprietary information provided to the Company or its Affiliates by any actual or potential customer, government agency or
other third party (including businesses, consultants and other entities and individuals).

 

The Executive hereby
acknowledges the Company’s exclusive ownership of such Confidential Information.

 

    	9

    	 

    

 

(b)         The
Executive agrees as follows: (1) only to use the Confidential Information to provide services to the Company and its Affiliates;
(2) only to communicate the Confidential Information to fellow employees, agents and representatives on a need-to-know basis; and
(3) not to otherwise disclose or use any Confidential Information, except as may be required by law or otherwise authorized by
the Board. Upon demand by the Company or upon termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive will deliver to the
Company all manuals, photographs, recordings and any other instrument or device by which, through which or on which Confidential
Information has been recorded and/or preserved, which are in the Executive’s possession, custody or control.

 

10.          Representation.  The
Executive hereby represents that the Executive’s entry into this Agreement and performance of the services hereunder will
not violate the terms or conditions of any other agreement to which the Executive is a party.

 

11.          Arbitration.  In
the event of any breach arising from the performance of this Agreement, either party may request arbitration.  In such
event, the parties will submit to arbitration by a qualified arbitrator with the definition and laws of the State of Colorado.  Such
arbitration shall be final and binding on both parties.

 

12.          Governing
Law/Jurisdiction.  This Agreement and any disputes or controversies arising hereunder shall be construed and enforced
in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of Colorado without regard to the conflicts of laws principles
thereof.

 

13.          Public
Company Obligations.  Executive acknowledges that the Company is a public company whose common stock has been registered
under the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and registered under the Exchange Act, and
that this Agreement may be subject to the public filing requirements of the Exchange Act.  Executive
acknowledges and agrees that the applicable insider trading rules, transaction reporting rules, limitations on disclosure of non-public
information and other requirements set forth in the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and rules and regulations promulgated by the
SEC may apply to this Agreement and Executive’s employment with the Company.  Executive
(on behalf of himself, as well as the Executive’s executors, heirs, administrators and assigns), absolutely and unconditionally
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and all of its past, present and future affiliates, executors, heirs, administrators,

from any and all claims, debts, demands, accounts, judgments, causes of action, equitable relief, damages, costs, charges, complaints,
obligations, controversies, actions, suits, proceedings, expenses, responsibilities and liabilities of every kind and character

breach of any obligation of Executive under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any rules promulgated
by the SEC and any other applicable federal, state or foreign laws, rules, regulations or orders.

 

14.          Entire

matter hereof and thereof and supersedes and cancels (i) any and all previous agreements, written and oral, regarding the subject
matter hereof between the parties hereto and (ii) that certain employment agreement dated as of July 1, 2011 by and between the

and other advice and representation as he has deemed appropriate in connection with this Agreement, that the Executive is fully

judgment and not on any representations or promises other than those contained in this Agreement.

 

22.          Withholding
and Payroll Practices.  All salary, severance payments, bonuses or benefits payments made by the Company under this

    	15EMPLOYMENT SERVICES AGREEMENT

 

This Employment Services
Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 6th day of April, 2012, by and between EASTERN
RESOURCES, INC., a Delaware corporation, with a business address of 1610 Wynkoop Street, Suite
400, Denver, CO 80202 (the “Company”), and Eric Altman, an individual residing at 1800 15th
Street #200, Denver, CO 80202 (the “Executive”). 

 

INTRODUCTION

 

WHEREAS, the Company
desires to employ the Executive under the title and capacity set forth on Schedule A hereto and the Executive desires to
be employed by the Company in such capacity, subject to the terms of this Agreement;

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and mutual promises herein below set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.          Employment
Period.  The term of the Executive’s employment by the Company (directly or through its subsidiary) pursuant
to this Agreement (the “Employment Period”) shall commence upon the date hereof (the “Effective Date”)
and shall continue for that period of calendar months from the Effective Date set forth on Schedule A hereto.  Thereafter,
the Employment Period shall automatically renew for successive periods of one (1) year each, unless either party shall have given
to the other at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of their intention not to renew the Executive’s employment
prior to the end of the Employment Period or the then applicable renewal term, as the case may be.  In any event, the
Employment Period may be terminated as provided herein.

 

2.           Employment;
Duties.  

 

(a)           General.           Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company shall employ the Executive to act for the Company during the Employment
Period in the capacity set forth on Schedule A hereto, and the Executive hereby accepts such employment.  The
duties and responsibilities of the Executive shall include such duties and responsibilities appropriate to such office as the Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board”) may from time to time reasonably assign to the Executive, as initially specified
on Schedule A attached hereto, with such authority and responsibilities, including Company-wide executive, administrative
and finance functions as are normally associated with and appropriate for such position.

 

(b)           Executive
recognizes that during the period of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive owes an undivided duty of loyalty to the
Company, and Executive will use Executive’s good faith efforts to promote and develop the business of the Company and its
subsidiaries (the Company’s subsidiaries from time to time, together with any other affiliates of the Company, the “Affiliates”).  Executive
shall devote all of Executive’s business time, attention and skills to the performance of Executive’s services as an
executive of the Company except as set forth in Schedule A.  Recognizing and acknowledging that it is essential
for the protection and enhancement of the name and business of the Company and the goodwill pertaining thereto, Executive shall
perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement professionally, in accordance with the applicable laws, rules and regulations
and such standards, policies and procedures established by the Company and the industry from time to time.    

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(c)           However,
the parties agree that:  (i) Executive may devote a reasonable amount of his time to civic, community, or charitable
activities and may serve as a director of other corporations (provided that any such other corporation is not a competitor of the
Company, as determined by the Board) and to other types of business or public activities not expressly mentioned in this paragraph
and (ii) Executive may participate as a non-employee director and/or investor in other companies and projects as described by Executive
to the Board, so long as Executive’s responsibilities with respect thereto do not conflict or interfere with the faithful
performance of his duties to the Company.  

 

(d)           Place
of Employment.             The Executive’s services shall
be performed at the Company’s offices located in Denver, Colorado, any other locus where the Company now or hereafter has
a business facility and at any other location where Executive’s presence is necessary to perform his duties.  The
parties acknowledge, however, that the Executive may be required to travel in connection with the performance of her duties hereunder.

 

3.           Base
Salary.  The Executive shall be entitled to receive a salary from the Company during the Employment Period at a rate
per year indicated on Schedule A hereto (the “Base Salary”).  Once the Board has established
the Base Salary, such Base Salary may be increased on each anniversary of the Effective Date, at the Board’s sole discretion.  The
parties expressly agree that what the Executive receives now or in the future, in addition to the regular Base Salary, whether
this be in the form of benefits or regular or occasional aid/assistance, such as recreation, club memberships, meals, education
for his family, vehicle, lodging or clothing, occasional bonuses or anything else he receives, during the Employment Period and
any renewals thereof, in cash or in kind, shall not be deemed as salary.  However, because the Company is a public company
subject to the reporting requirements of, inter alia, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), both parties
acknowledge that the Executive’s annual compensation (as determined by the rules of the SEC or any other regulatory body
or exchange having jurisdiction), which may include some or all of the foregoing, may be required to be publicly disclosed.

 

4.           Bonus.  (a)
The Company may pay the Executive an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”), at such time and in such amount as may
be determined by the Board in its sole discretion.  The Board may or may not determine that all or any portion of the
Annual Bonus shall be earned upon the achievement of operational, financial or other milestones (“Milestones”)
established by the Board in consultation with the Executive and that all or any portion of any Annual Bonus shall be paid in cash,
securities or other property.

 

(b) The Executive shall
be eligible to participate in any other bonus or incentive program established by the Company for executives of the Company.

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

5.           Other
Benefits

 

(a)          Stock
Option Grant.   The Executive shall be entitled to receive those stock options under the Company’s 2012 Equity
Incentive Plan as specified in Schedule A hereto.  Any additional option grants to the Executive shall be at the
option of the Board.

 

(b)           Insurance
and Other Benefits.  During the Employment Period, the Executive and the Executive’s dependents shall be entitled
to participate in the Company’s insurance programs and any ERISA benefit plans, as the same may be adopted and/or amended
from time to time (the “Benefits”).  The Executive shall be entitled to paid personal days on a basis
consistent with the Company’s other senior executives, as determined by the Board.  The Executive shall be bound
by all of the policies and procedures established by the Company from time to time.  However, in case any of those policies
conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

 

(c)          Vacation.  During
the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an annual vacation of at least that number of working days set forth
on Schedule A hereto.

 

(d)           Expense
Reimbursement.  The Company shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable business, promotional, travel and entertainment
expenses incurred or paid by the Executive during the Employment Period in the performance of Executive’s services
under this Agreement, provided that the Executive furnishes to the Company appropriate documentation required by the Internal Revenue
Code in a timely fashion in connection with such expenses and shall furnish such other documentation and accounting as the Company
may from time to time reasonably request.

 

6.           Termination;
Compensation Due.   The Executive’s employment hereunder may terminate, and the Executive’s right
to compensation for periods after the date the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates shall be determined,
in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (e) below:

 

(a)          Voluntary
Resignation; Termination without Cause.  

 

(i) Voluntary
Resignation.           The Executive may terminate his employment
at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Company.  In the event of the
Executive’s voluntary termination of his employment other than for Good Reason (as defined below), the Company shall
have no obligation to make payments to the Executive in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3 or 4 above, except as
otherwise required by this Agreement or by applicable law, or to provide the benefits described in Section 5 above, for
periods after the date on which the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates due to the Executive’s
voluntary termination, except for the payment of the Base Salary accrued through the date of such resignation.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

(ii)
Termination without Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment
with the Company at any time with or without cause, by delivery to the Executive of a written notice of termination from the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company.

 

(A)    If
the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below): (1) the Company shall (x) continue
to pay the Executive the Base Salary (at the rate in effect on the date the Executive’s
employment is terminated) until the end of the Severance Period (as defined in Section 6(e) below), (y) with respect to the Annual
Bonus, to the extent the Milestones are achieved, pay the Executive a pro rata portion of the
Annual Bonus for the year of the Employment Period on the date such Annual Bonus would have been payable to the Executive had the
Executive remained employed by the Company, and (z) pay any other accrued compensation and Benefits; and (2) any of the Executive’s
unvested stock options as outlined on Schedule A attached hereto shall automatically vest upon the Executive’s termination
without Cause. The Executive shall not have any further rights under this Agreement or otherwise
to receive any other compensation or benefits after such termination of employment. 

 

(B)    If,
following a termination of employment without Cause, the Executive breaches the provisions of Sections 7, 8 or 9 hereof,
the Executive shall not be eligible, as of the date of such breach, for the payments and benefits described in Section 6
(a)(ii)(A) above, and any and all obligations and agreements of the Company with respect to such payments shall thereupon cease.

 

(b)          Discharge
for Cause.  Upon written notice to the Executive, the Company may terminate the Executive’s employment for
“Cause” if any of the following events shall occur:

 

(i)          any
act or omission that constitutes a material breach by the Executive of any of his obligations under this Agreement;

 

(ii)         the
willful and continued failure or refusal of the Executive to satisfactorily perform the duties reasonably required of him as an
employee of the Company;

 

(iii)        the
Executive’s conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, (i) any felony or (ii) a crime involving dishonesty
or moral turpitude or which could reflect negatively upon the Company or otherwise impair or impede its operations;

 

(iv)        the
Executive’s engaging in any misconduct, negligence, act of dishonesty (including, without limitation, theft or embezzlement),
violence, threat of violence or any activity that could result in any violation of federal securities laws, in each case, that
is injurious to the Company or any of its Affiliates;

 

(v)        the
Executive’s material breach of a written policy of the Company or the rules of any governmental or regulatory body applicable
to the Company;

 

(vi)       the
Executive’s refusal to follow the directions of the Board;

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

(vii)       any
other willful misconduct by the Executive which is materially injurious to the financial condition or business reputation of the
Company or any of its Affiliates, or

 

(viii)      the
Executive’s breach of his obligations under Section 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement.

 

In the event the
Executive is terminated for Cause, the Company shall have no obligation to make payments to the Executive in accordance with
the provisions of Sections 3 or 4 above, or, except as otherwise required by law, to provide the benefits described in
Section 5 above, for periods after the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated on account of the
Executive’s discharge for Cause except for the then applicable Base Salary accrued through the date of such
termination.

 

(c)           Disability.  The
Company shall have the right, but shall not be obligated to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder in the event the
Executive becomes disabled such that he is unable to discharge his duties to the Company for a period of ninety (90)
consecutive days or one hundred twenty (120) days in any one hundred eighty (180) consecutive day period, provided longer periods
are not required under applicable local labor regulations (a “Permanent Disability”).  In the event
of a termination of employment due to a Permanent Disability, the Company shall be obligated to continue to make payments to the
Executive in an amount equal to the then applicable Base Salary for the Severance Period (as
defined below) after the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated due to a Permanent Disability.  A
determination of a Permanent Disability shall be made by a physician satisfactory to both the Executive and the Company; provided,
however, that if the Executive and the Company do not agree on a physician, the Executive and the Company shall each select
a physician and those two physicians together shall select a third physician, whose determination as to a Permanent Disability
shall be binding on all parties.

 

(d)           Death.  The
Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon the death of the Executive.  The Company shall have no
obligation to make payments to the Executive in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3 or 4 above, or, except as
otherwise required by law or the terms of any applicable benefit plan, to provide the benefits described in Section 5 above,
for periods after the date of the Executive’s death except for then applicable Base Salary earned and accrued through
the date of death, payable to the Executive or his successor.

 

(e)           Termination
for Good Reason.  The Executive may terminate this Agreement at any time for Good
Reason.  In the event of termination under this Section 6(e), the Company shall pay to the Executive
severance in an amount equal to the then applicable Base Salary for a period equal to the number of months set forth on
Schedule A hereto (the “Severance Period”), subject to the Executive’s
continued compliance with Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement for the applicable Severance Period following the Executive’s
termination, and subject to the Company’s regular payroll practices and required withholdings.  Such severance
shall be reduced by any cash remuneration paid to the Executive because of the Executive’s employment or self-employment
during the Severance Period.  The Executive shall continue to receive all Benefits during the Severance Period.  The
Executive shall not have any further rights under this Agreement or otherwise to receive any other compensation or benefits after
such resignation.  For the purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any of the following
(without Executive’s express written consent):  

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

(i) the assignment
to the Executive of duties that are significantly different from, and that result in a substantial diminution of, the duties that
he assumed on the Effective Date;

 

(ii) removal
of the Executive from his position as indicated on Schedule A hereto, or the assignment to the Executive of duties
that are significantly different from, and that result in a substantial diminution of, the duties that he assumed under this Agreement,
within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control (as defined below);

 

(iii) a
reduction by the Company in the then applicable Base Salary or other compensation, unless said reduction is pari passu with other
senior executives of the Company;

 

(iv)
the taking of any action by the Company that would, directly or indirectly, materially reduce the Executive’s benefits, unless
said reductions are pari passu with other senior executives of the Company; or 

 

(v) a
breach by the Company of any material term of this Agreement that is not cured by the Company within 30 days following receipt
by the Company of written notice thereof.

 

For purposes of this
Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) the accumulation,
whether directly, indirectly, beneficially or of record, by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3)
or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of 50% or more of the shares of
the outstanding equity securities of the Company, (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company does
not survive as an independent company or upon the consummation of which the holders of the Company’s outstanding equity securities
prior to such merger or consolidation own less than 50% of the outstanding equity securities of the Company after such merger or
consolidation, or (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; provided, however, that the following
acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control for the purposes of this Agreement: (A) any acquisitions of common stock
or securities convertible into common stock directly from the Company, or (B) any acquisition of common stock or securities convertible
into common stock by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored by or maintained by the Company.

 

(f)    Notice
of Termination.    Any termination of employment by the Company or the Executive shall be communicated
by a written ‘‘Notice of Termination’’ to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 15
of this Agreement. In the event of a termination by the Company for Cause, the Notice of Termination shall (i) indicate the
specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances
claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) specify
the date of termination, which date shall be the date of such notice. The failure by the Executive or the Company to set forth
in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause shall not waive any right of the
Executive or the Company, respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such
fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

(g)    Resignation
from Directorships and Officerships.    The termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason
will constitute the Executive’s resignation from (i) any director, officer or employee position the Executive has with
the Company or any of its Affiliates, and (ii) all fiduciary positions (including as a trustee) the Executive holds with respect
to any employee benefit plans or trusts established by the Company. The Executive agrees that this Agreement shall serve as written
notice of resignation in this circumstance, unless otherwise required by any plan or applicable law.

 

7.           Non-Competition;
Non-Solicitation.  

 

(a)           For
the duration of the Employment Period and, unless the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause, during
the Severance Period (the “Non-compete Period”), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, except as
specifically provided in the last sentence of Section 2(c) hereof, engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control
or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner
connected with, lend any credit to, or render services or advice to, any business, firm, corporation, partnership, association,
joint venture or other entity that engages or conducts any business the same as or substantially similar to the business of the
Company or any other business engaged in or proposed to be engaged in or conducted by the Company and/or any of its Affiliates
during the Employment Period, or then included in the future strategic plan of the Company and/or any of its Affiliates, anywhere
within the states in which the Company or any of its Affiliates at that time is operating; provided, however, that
the Executive may own less than 5% in the aggregate of the
outstanding shares of any class of securities of any enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such
enterprise) including those engaged in the mining business, other than any such enterprise with which the Company competes or is
currently engaged in a joint venture, if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been
registered under Section 12(b) or (g) of the Exchange Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Executive shall present
to the Board any opportunity within the scope of the prohibited activities described above, and the Company shall not elect to
pursue such opportunity within a reasonable time, then the Executive shall be permitted to pursue such opportunity, subject to
the requirements of Section 2(c) hereof.

 

(b)           During
the Employment Period and for a period of twelve (12) months following termination of the Executive’s employment with the
Company, the Executive shall not:

 

(i) persuade,
solicit or hire, or attempt to recruit, persuade, solicit or hire, any employee, or independent contractor of, or consultant to,
the Company, or its Affiliates, to leave the employment (or independent contractor relationship) thereof, whether or not any such
employee or independent contractor is party to an employment agreement; or

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

(ii) attempt
in any manner to solicit or accept from any customer or client of the Company or any of its Affiliates, with whom the Company or
any of its Affiliates had significant contact during the term of this Agreement, business of the kind or competitive with the business
done by the Company or any of its Affiliates with such customer or to persuade or attempt to persuade any such customer to cease
to do business or to reduce the amount of business which such customer has customarily done or is reasonably expected to do with
the Company or any of its Affiliates or if any such customer elects to move its business to a person other than the Company or
any of its Affiliates, provide any services (of the kind or competitive with the Business of the Company or any of its Affiliates)
for such customer, or have any discussions regarding any such service with such customer, on behalf of such other person.

 

The Executive recognizes
and agrees that because a violation by the Executive of his obligations under this Section 7 will cause irreparable harm to the
Company that would be difficult to quantify and for which money damages would be inadequate, the Company shall have the right to
injunctive relief to prevent or restrain any such violation, without the necessity of posting a bond. The Non-compete Period will
be extended by the duration of any violation by the Executive of any of his obligations under this Section 7.

 

The Executive expressly
agrees that the character, duration and scope of the covenant not to compete are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they
exist at the date upon which this Agreement has been executed.  However, should a determination nonetheless be made by
a court of competent jurisdiction at a later date that the character, duration or geographical scope of the covenant not to compete
is unreasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist, then it is the intention of the Executive, on the one hand, and
the Company, on the other, that the covenant not to compete shall be construed by the court in such a manner as to impose only
those restrictions on the conduct of the Executive which are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist and necessary
to assure the Company of the intended benefit of the covenant not to compete.

 

8.           Inventions
and Patents. The Executive acknowledges that all inventions, innovations, improvements, know-how, plans, development, methods,
designs, analyses, specifications, software, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable
or reduced to practice) which related to any of the Company’s actual or proposed business activities and which are created,
designed or conceived, developed or made by the Executive during the Executive’s past or future employment by the Company
or any Affiliates, or any predecessor thereof (“Work Product”), belong to the Company, or its Affiliates, as applicable.  Any
copyrightable work falling within the definition of Work Product shall be deemed a “work made for hire” and ownership
of all right title and interest shall rest in the Company.  The Executive hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys,
to the full extent permitted by law, all right, title and interest in the Work Product, on a worldwide basis, to the Company to
the extent ownership of any such rights does not automatically vest in the Company under applicable law.  The Executive
will promptly disclose any such Work Product to the Company and perform all actions requested by the Company (whether during or
after employment) to establish and confirm ownership of such Work Product by the Company (including, without limitation, assignments,
consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

    	8

    	 

    

 

9.           Confidentiality
Covenants.

 

(a)          The
Executive understands that the Company and/or its Affiliates, from time to time, may impart to the Executive confidential information,
whether such information is written, oral or graphic.  

 

For purposes of this
Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information, which is used in the business of the Company or its Affiliates
