that any Award constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Code Section 409A, and if that Award provides for a change in
the time or form of payment upon a Change in Control, then no Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred upon an event

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board

(c)       Acts
of the Committee; Delegation. A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum for any meeting of the Committee,
and any act of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present or any act unanimously approved in
writing or electronically by all members of the Committee shall be the act of the Committee. Any such action of the Committee shall

law or stock exchange rules, the Committee may delegate all or any portion of its authority under the Plan to any one or more of
its members or, as to Awards to Participants who are not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, to one or more directors or
executive officers of the Company or to a committee of one or more directors of the Company. The Committee may also delegate non-discretionary

authority under the Plan, shall be indemnified by the Company, to the maximum extent permitted by law, against liabilities and
expenses imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such person in connection with or resulting from any claims against such person
by reason of the performance of the individual's duties under the Plan. This right to indemnification is conditioned upon such
person providing the Company an opportunity, at the Company’s expense, to handle and defend the claims before such person
undertakes to handle and defend them on such person’s own behalf. The Company will not be required to indemnify any person
for any amount paid in settlement of a claim unless the Company has first consented in writing to the settlement. The foregoing
right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such person or persons may be entitled
under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, each as amended, as a matter of law, or otherwise.

 

4.       Shares
Available Under the Plan.

 

(a)       Maximum
Shares Available. Subject to Section 4(b) and Section 4(c) and to adjustment as provided in Section 12(a), the number of Shares
that may be the subject of Awards and issued under the Plan shall be 400,000 Shares issued under the Plan may come from authorized
and unissued shares or treasury shares. In determining the number of Shares to be counted against this share reserve in connection
with any Award, the following rules shall apply:

 

(1)       Shares
that are subject to Awards of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Full Value Awards shall be counted against the share reserve
as one Share for every one Share granted.

 

(2)       Where
the number of Shares subject to an Award is variable on the Grant Date, the number of Shares to be counted against the share reserve
shall be the maximum number of Shares that could be received under that particular Award, until such time as it has been determined
that only a lesser number of shares could be received.

 

    	 	6	 

     

    

  

(3)       Where
two or more types of Awards are granted to a Participant in tandem with each other, such that the exercise of one type of Award
with respect to a number of Shares cancels at least an equal number of Shares of the other, the number of Shares to be counted
against the share reserve shall be the largest number of Shares that would be counted against the share reserve under either of
the Awards.

 

(4)       Shares
subject to Substitute Awards shall not be counted against the share reserve, nor shall they reduce the Shares authorized for grant
to a Participant in any calendar year.

 

(5)       Awards
that will be settled solely in cash shall not be counted against the share reserve, nor shall they reduce the Shares authorized
for grant to a Participant in any calendar year.

 

(b)       Effect
of Forfeitures and Other Actions. Any Shares subject to an Award that expires, is cancelled or forfeited or is settled for
cash and any Shares tendered (either actually or by attestation) by the Participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax
withholding obligation, shall, to the extent of such cancellation, forfeiture, expiration, cash settlement, tender or withholding,
again become available for Awards under this Plan, and the share reserve under Section 4(a) shall be correspondingly replenished
as provided in Section 4(c) below. The following Shares shall not, however, again become available for Awards or replenish the
share reserve under Section 4(a): (i) Shares tendered (either actually or by attestation) by the Participant or withheld by the
Company in payment of the purchase price of an Option issued under this Plan, (ii) Shares repurchased by the Company with proceeds
received from the exercise of an Option issued under this Plan, and (iii) Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right award issued
under this Plan that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of that award upon its exercise.

 

(c)       Counting
Shares Again Available. Each Share that again becomes available for Awards as provided in Section 4(b) shall correspondingly
increase the share reserve under Section 4(a) by one Share.

 

(d)       Effect
of Plans Operated by Acquired Companies. If a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or
any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by shareholders and not adopted in contemplation
of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted,
to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition
or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition
or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan. Awards
using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing
plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not Employees or Non-Employee Directors
prior to such acquisition or combination.

 

(e)       No
Fractional Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the number of Shares subject to an Award shall always be a
whole number. No fractional Shares may be issued under the Plan, but the Committee may, in its discretion, pay cash in lieu of
any fractional Share in settlement of an Award.

 

(f)       Individual
Option and SAR Limit. The aggregate number of Shares subject to Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights granted during any
calendar year to any one Participant shall not exceed 100,000 Shares.

 

    	 	7	 

     

    

 

(g)       Performance-Based
Compensation Limit. With respect to Awards of Performance-Based Compensation, (i) the maximum number of Shares that may be
the subject of Full Value Awards that are denominated in Shares or Share equivalents and that are granted to any Participant during
any calendar year shall not exceed 100,000 Shares (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12(a)); and (ii) the maximum amount
payable with respect to Full Value Awards that are denominated other than in Shares or Share equivalents and that are granted to
any one Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed $1,000,000.

 

5.       Eligibility.
Participation in the Plan is limited to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may only be granted to Employees.

 

6.       General
Terms of Awards.

 

(a)       Award
Agreement. Except for any Award that involves only the immediate issuance of unrestricted Shares, each Award shall be evidenced
by an Agreement setting forth the amount of the Award together with such other terms and conditions applicable to the Award (and
not inconsistent with the Plan) as determined by the Committee. An Award to a Participant may be made singly or in combination
with any form of Award. Two types of Awards may be made in tandem with each other such that the exercise of one type of Award with
respect to a number of Shares reduces the number of Shares subject to the related Award by at least an equal amount.

 

(b)       Vesting
and Term. Each Agreement shall set forth the period until the applicable Award is scheduled to expire (which shall not be more
than ten years from the Grant Date), and any applicable performance period.

 

(c)       Transferability.
Except as provided in this Section 6(c), (i) during the lifetime of a Participant, only the Participant or the Participant’s
guardian or legal representative may exercise an Option or SAR, or receive payment with respect to any other Award; and (ii) no
Award may be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged or encumbered, voluntarily or involuntarily, other than by will or the laws
of descent and distribution. Any attempted transfer in violation of this Section 6(c) shall be of no effect. The Committee
may, however, provide at the time of grant or thereafter, in an Agreement or otherwise, that an Award (other than an Incentive
Stock Option) may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order or may be transferable to a member of the Participant's
immediate family, a trust of which members of the Participant's immediate family are the only beneficiaries, or a partnership of
which members of the Participant's immediate family or trusts for the sole benefit of the Participant's immediate family are the
only partners, or in other circumstances at the Committee's sole discretion. Immediate family means the Participant's spouse, issue
(by birth or adoption), parents, grandparents, and siblings (including half brothers and sisters and adopted siblings). Any Award
held by a transferee shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions that were applicable to that Award immediately
before the transfer thereof. For purposes of any provision of the Plan relating to notice to a Participant or to acceleration or
termination of an Award upon the death or termination of service of a Participant, the references to “Participant”
shall mean the original grantee of an Award and not any transferee.

 

(d)       Designation
of Beneficiary. A Participant may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise any Award or receive a payment under
any Award payable on or after the Participant’s death. Any such designation shall be on a form approved by the Company and
shall be effective upon its receipt by the Company.

 

(e)       Termination
of Service. Unless otherwise provided in an applicable Agreement or another then-effective written agreement between a Participant
and the Company, and subject to Section 12 of this Plan, if a Participant’s Service with the Company and all of its Affiliates
terminates, the following provisions shall apply (in all cases subject to the scheduled expiration of an Option or SAR Award, as
applicable):

 

    	 	8	 

     

    

  

(1)       Upon
termination of Service for Cause, all unexercised Option and SAR Awards and all unvested portions of any other outstanding Awards
shall be immediately forfeited without consideration.

 

(2)       Upon
termination of Service for any other reason, all unvested and unexercisable portions of any outstanding Awards shall be immediately
forfeited without consideration.

 

(3)       Upon
termination of Service for any reason other than Cause, death or Disability, the currently vested and exercisable portions of Option
and SAR Awards may be exercised for a period of three months after the date of such termination. However, if a Participant thereafter
dies during such three-month period, the vested and exercisable portions of the Option and SAR Awards may be exercised for a period
of one year after the date of such termination.

 

(4)       Upon
termination of Service due to death or Disability, the currently vested and exercisable portions of Option and SAR Awards may be
exercised for a period of one year after the date of such termination.

 

(f)       Rights
as Shareholder. Unless the Committee so provides in an Agreement or otherwise, no Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder
with respect to any Shares covered by an Award unless and until the date the Participant becomes the holder of record of the Shares,
if any, to which the Award relates.

 

(g)       Performance-Based
Awards. Any Award may be granted as a performance-based Award if the Committee establishes one or more measures of corporate,
business unit or individual performance which must be attained, and the performance period over which the specified performance
is to be attained, as a condition to the grant, vesting, exercisability, lapse of restrictions and/or settlement in cash or Shares
of such Award. In connection with any such Award, the Committee shall determine the extent to which performance measures have been
attained and other applicable terms and conditions have been satisfied, and the degree to which vesting, exercisability, lapse
of restrictions and/or settlement in cash or Shares of such Award has been earned. Any performance-based Award that is intended
by the Committee to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall additionally be subject to the requirements of Section 16 of
this Plan. Except as provided in Section 16 with respect to Performance-Based Compensation, the Committee shall also have the authority
to provide, in an Agreement or otherwise, for the modification of a performance period and/or an adjustment or waiver of the achievement
of performance measures upon the occurrence of certain events, which may include a Change of Control, a Corporate Transaction,
a recapitalization, a change in the accounting practices of the Company, or the Participant’s death or Disability.

 

(h)       Dividends
and Dividend Equivalents. No dividends, dividend equivalents or distributions will be paid with respect to Shares subject to
an Option or SAR Award. Any dividends or distributions paid with respect to Shares that are subject to the unvested portion of
a Restricted Stock Award will be subject to the same restrictions as the Shares to which such dividends or distributions relate,
except for regular cash dividends on Shares subject to the unvested portion of a Restricted Stock Award that is subject only to
service-based vesting conditions. In its discretion, the Committee may provide in an Award Agreement for a Stock Unit Award or
an Other Stock-Based Award that the Participant will be entitled to receive dividend equivalents on the units or other Share equivalents
subject to the Award based on dividends actually declared and paid on outstanding Shares. The terms of any dividend equivalents
will be as set forth in the applicable Agreement, including the time and form of payment and whether such dividend equivalents
will be credited with interest or deemed to be reinvested in additional units or Share equivalents. Dividend equivalents paid with
respect to units or Share equivalents that are subject to the unvested portion of a Stock Unit Award or an Other Stock-Based Award
whose vesting is subject to the satisfaction of specified performance objectives will be subject to the same restrictions as the
units or Share equivalents to which such dividend equivalents relate. The Committee may, in its discretion, provide in an Agreement
for restrictions on dividends and dividend equivalents in addition to those specified in this Section 6(h). Any Shares issued or
issuable during the term of this Plan as the result of the reinvestment of dividends or the deemed reinvestment of dividend equivalents
in connection with an Award shall be counted against, and replenish upon any subsequent forfeiture, the Plan’s share reserve
as provided in Section 4.

7.       Stock
Option Awards.

 

(a)       Type
and Exercise Price. The Agreement pursuant to which an Option Award is granted shall specify whether the Option is an Incentive
Stock Option or a Non-Statutory Stock Option. The exercise price at which each Share subject to an Option Award may be purchased
shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Agreement, and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share
on the Grant Date, except in the case of Substitute Awards (to the extent consistent with Code Section 409A and, in the case of
Incentive Stock Options, Code Section 424).

 

(b)       Payment
of Exercise Price. The purchase price of the Shares with respect to which an Option Award is exercised shall be payable in
full at the time of exercise. The purchase price may be paid in cash or in such other manner as the Committee may permit, including
by payment under a broker-assisted sale and remittance program, by withholding Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant upon
exercise of the Option or by delivery to the Company of Shares (by actual delivery or attestation) already owned by the Participant
(in each case, such Shares having a Fair Market Value as of the date the Option is exercised equal to the purchase price of the
Shares being purchased).

 

(c)       Exercisability
and Expiration. Each Option Award shall be exercisable in whole or in part on the terms provided in the Agreement. No Option
Award shall be exercisable at any time after its scheduled expiration. When an Option Award is no longer exercisable, it shall
be deemed to have terminated.

 

(d)       Incentive
Stock Options.

 

(1)       An
Option Award will constitute an Incentive Stock Option Award only if the Participant receiving the Option Award is an Employee,
and only to the extent that (i) it is so designated in the applicable Agreement and (ii) the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined
as of the Option Award’s Grant Date) of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options held by the Participant
first become exercisable in any calendar year (under the Plan and all other plans of the Company and its Affiliates) does not exceed
$100,000 or such other amount specified by the Code. To the extent an Option granted to a Participant exceeds this limit, the Option
shall be treated as a Non-Statutory Stock Option. The maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive
Stock Options shall be 400,000, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12(a).

 

(2)       No
Participant may receive an Incentive Stock Option Award under the Plan if, immediately after the grant of such Award, the Participant
would own (after application of the rules contained in Code Section 424(d)) Shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or an Affiliate, unless (i) the exercise price for that Incentive Stock Option
is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to that Incentive Stock Option on the Grant Date and (ii) that
Option Award will expire no later than five years after its Grant Date.

 

    	 	10	 

     

    

 

(3)       For
purposes of continued Service by a Participant who has been granted an Incentive Stock Option Award, no approved leave of absence
may exceed three months unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is provided by statute or contract. If reemployment is
not so provided, then on the date six months following the first day of such leave, any Incentive Stock Option held by the Participant
shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a Non-Statutory Stock Option.

 

(4)       If
an Incentive Stock Option Award is exercised after the expiration of the exercise periods that apply for purposes of Code Section
422, such Option shall thereafter be treated as a Non-Statutory Stock Option.

 

(5)       The
Agreement covering an Incentive Stock Option Award shall contain such other terms and provisions that the Committee determines
necessary to qualify the Option Award as an Incentive Stock Option Award.

 

8.       Stock
Appreciation Rights. 

 

(a)       Nature
of Award. An Award of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to such terms and conditions as are determined by the Committee,
and shall provide a Participant the right to receive upon exercise of the SAR Award all or a portion of the excess of (i) the Fair
Market Value as of the date of exercise of the SAR Award of the number of Shares as to which the SAR Award is being exercised,
over (ii) the aggregate exercise price for such number of Shares. The per Share exercise price for any SAR Award shall be determined
by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Agreement, and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the
Grant Date, except in the case of Substitute Awards (to the extent consistent with Code Section 409A).

 

(b)       Exercise
of SAR. Each SAR Award may be exercisable in whole or in part at the times, on the terms and in the manner provided in the
Agreement. No SAR Award shall be exercisable at any time after its scheduled expiration. When a SAR Award is no longer exercisable,
it shall be deemed to have terminated. Upon exercise of a SAR Award, payment to the Participant shall be made at such time or times
as shall be provided in the Agreement in the form of cash, Shares or a combination of cash and Shares as determined by the Committee.
The Agreement may provide for a limitation upon the amount or percentage of the total appreciation on which payment (whether in
cash and/or Shares) may be made in the event of the exercise of a SAR Award.

 

9.       Restricted
Stock Awards.

 

(a)       Vesting
and Consideration. Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award shall be subject to vesting and the lapse of applicable restrictions
based on such conditions or factors and occurring over such period of time as the Committee may determine in its discretion. The
Committee may provide whether any consideration other than Services must be received by the Company or any Affiliate as a condition
precedent to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, and may correspondingly provide for Company reacquisition or repurchase rights
if such additional consideration has been required and some or all of a Restricted Stock Award does not vest.

 

    	 	11	 

     

    

 

(b)       Shares
Subject to Restricted Stock Awards. Unvested Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by a book-entry
in the name of the Participant with the Company’s transfer agent or by one or more Stock certificates issued in the name
of the Participant. Any such Stock certificate shall be deposited with the Company or its designee, together with an assignment
separate from the certificate, in blank, signed by the Participant, and bear an appropriate legend referring to the restricted
nature of the Restricted Stock evidenced thereby. Any book-entry shall be subject to comparable restrictions and corresponding
stop transfer instructions. Upon the vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock, and the Company’s determination that any necessary
conditions precedent to the release of vested Shares (such as satisfaction of tax withholding obligations and compliance with applicable
legal requirements) have been satisfied, such vested Shares shall be made available to the Participant in such manner as may be
prescribed or permitted by the Committee. Such vested Shares may, however, continue to be subject to certain restrictions as provided
in Section 17. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or an applicable Agreement, a Participant with a Restricted Stock Award
shall have all the rights of a shareholder, including the right to vote the Shares of Restricted Stock.

 

10.       Stock
Unit Awards.

 

(a)       Vesting
and Consideration. A Stock Unit Award shall be subject to vesting and the lapse of applicable restrictions based on such conditions
or factors and occurring over such period of time as the Committee may determine in its discretion. If vesting of a Stock Unit
Award is conditioned on the achievement of specified performance goals, the extent to which they are achieved over the specified
performance period shall determine the number of Stock Units that will be earned and eligible to vest, which may be greater than
the target number of Stock Units stated in the Agreement. The Committee may provide whether any consideration other than Services
must be received by the Company or any Affiliate as a condition precedent to the settlement of a Stock Unit Award.

 

(b)       Payment
of Award. Following the vesting of a Stock Unit Award, and the Company’s determination that any necessary conditions
precedent to the settlement of the Award (such as satisfaction of tax withholding obligations and compliance with applicable legal
requirements) have been satisfied, settlement of the Award and payment to the Participant shall be made at such time or times in
the form of cash, Shares (which may themselves be considered Restricted Stock under the Plan) or a combination of cash and Shares
as determined by the Committee. Amounts received in settlement may, however, continue to be subject to certain restrictions as
provided in Section 17.

 

11.       Other
Stock-Based Awards. The Committee may from time to time grant Shares and other Awards that are valued by reference to and/or
payable in whole or in part in Shares under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards, which
shall be consistent with the terms and purposes of the Plan. The Committee may direct the Company to issue Shares subject to restrictive
legends and/or stop transfer instructions that are consistent with the terms and conditions of the Award to which the Shares relate.

 

12.       Changes
in Capitalization, Corporate Transactions, Change in Control. 

 

(a)       Adjustments
for Changes in Capitalization. In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning of FASB ASC Topic 718) that causes
the per share value of Shares to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering or recapitalization through
an extraordinary dividend, the Committee shall make such adjustments as it deems equitable and appropriate to (i) the aggregate
number and kind of Shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance under the Plan, (ii) the number and kind of Shares
or other securities subject to outstanding Awards, (iii) the exercise price of outstanding Options and SARs, and (iv) any maximum
limitations prescribed by the Plan with respect to certain types of Awards or the grants to individuals of certain types of Awards.
In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, including a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or partial or
complete liquidation of the Company, such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence may be made as determined to
be appropriate and equitable by the Committee to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of Participants.  In either case,
any such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of the Plan.  No adjustment shall be made pursuant to
this Section 12(a) in connection with the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company, or in a manner that would cause
Incentive Stock Options to violate Section 422(b) of the Code or cause an Award to be subject to adverse tax consequences under Section
409A of the Code.

 

    	 	12	 

     

    

 

(b)       Corporate
Transactions. Unless otherwise provided in an applicable Agreement, the following provisions shall apply to outstanding Awards
in the event of a Change in Control that involves a Corporate Transaction.

 

(1)       Continuation,
Assumption or Replacement of Awards. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, then the surviving or successor entity (or
its Parent) may continue, assume or replace Awards outstanding as of the date of the Corporate Transaction (with such adjustments
as may be required or permitted by Section 12(a)), and such Awards or replacements therefor shall remain outstanding and be governed
by their respective terms. A surviving or successor entity may elect to continue, assume or replace only some Awards or portions
of Awards. For purposes of this Section 12(b)(1), an Award shall be considered assumed or replaced if, in connection with the Corporate
Transaction and in a manner consistent with Code Sections 409A and 424, either (i) the contractual obligations represented by the
Award are expressly assumed by the surviving or successor entity (or its Parent) with appropriate adjustments to the number and
type of securities subject to the Award and the exercise price thereof that preserves the intrinsic value of the Award existing
at the time of the Corporate Transaction, or (ii) the Participant has received a comparable equity-based award that preserves the
intrinsic value of the Award existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction and contains terms and conditions that are substantially
similar to those of the Award.

 

(2)       Acceleration.
If and to the extent that outstanding Awards under the Plan are not continued, assumed or replaced in connection with a Corporate
Transaction, then (i) all outstanding Options and SARs shall become fully vested and exercisable for such period of time prior
to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction as is deemed fair and equitable by the Committee, and shall terminate at the
effective time of the Corporate Transaction, (ii) all outstanding Full Value Awards shall fully vest immediately prior to the effective
time of the Corporate Transaction, and (iii) to the extent vesting of any Award is subject to satisfaction of specified performance
goals, such Award shall be considered “fully vested” for purposes of this Section 12(b)(2) to the extent the portion
of the Award already earned for a completed performance period and the portion of the Award that would be earned at the target
level of performance for any uncompleted performance period become vested. The Committee shall provide written notice of the period
of accelerated exercisability of Options and SARs to all affected Participants. The exercise of any Option or SAR whose exercisability
is accelerated as provided in this Section 12(b)(2) shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the Corporate Transaction and
shall be effective only immediately before such consummation.

 

(3)       Payment
for Awards. If and to the extent that outstanding Awards under the Plan are not continued, assumed or replaced in connection
with a Corporate Transaction, then the Committee may provide that some or all of such outstanding Awards shall be canceled at or
immediately prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction in exchange for payments to the holders as provided in this
Section 12(b)(3). The Committee will not be required to treat all Awards similarly for purposes of this Section 12(b)(3). The payment
for any Award surrendered shall be in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the fair market value (as determined
in good faith by the Committee) of the consideration that would otherwise be received in the Corporate Transaction for the number
of Shares subject to the Award, and (ii) the aggregate exercise price (if any) for the Shares subject to such Award. If the amount
determined pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence is less than or equal to the amount determined pursuant to clause (ii)
of the preceding sentence with respect to any Award, such Award may be canceled pursuant to this Section 12(b)(3) without payment
of any kind to the affected Participant. With respect to an Award whose vesting is subject to the satisfaction of specified performance
goals, the number of Shares subject to such an Award for purposes of this Section 12(b)(3) shall be the number of Shares that have
been earned or deemed earned in the manner specified in Section 12(b)(2). Payment of any amount under this Section 12(b)(3) shall
be made in such form, on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Committee determines in its discretion, which may or
may not be the same as the form, terms and conditions applicable to payments to the Company’s shareholders in connection
with the Corporate Transaction, and may, in the Committee’s discretion, include subjecting such payments to vesting conditions
comparable to those of the Award surrendered, subjecting such payments to escrow or holdback terms comparable to those imposed
upon the Company’s shareholders under the Corporate Transaction, or calculating and paying the present value of payments
that would otherwise be subject to escrow or holdback terms.

 

    	 	13	 

     

    

  

(c)       Other
Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control that does not involve a Corporate Transaction, notwithstanding any exercise dates
or vesting provisions stated in any Agreement, all exercise dates of any outstanding Award shall accelerate and all outstanding
Awards shall vest in full.

 

(d)       Dissolution
or Liquidation. Unless otherwise provided in an applicable Agreement, in the event of a proposed dissolution or liquidation
of the Company, the Committee will notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed
transaction. An Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

 

13.       Plan
Participation and Service Provider Status. Status as a Service Provider shall not be construed as a commitment that any
Award will be made under the Plan to that Service Provider or to eligible Service Providers generally. Nothing in the Plan or in
any Agreement or related documents shall confer upon any Service Provider or Participant any right to continued Service with the
Company or any Affiliate, nor shall it interfere with or limit in any way any right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate
the person’s Service at any time with or without Cause or change such person’s compensation, other benefits, job responsibilities
or title.

 

14.       Tax
Withholding. The Company or any Affiliate, as applicable, shall have the right to (i) withhold from any cash payment under
the Plan or any other compensation owed to a Participant an amount sufficient to cover any required withholding taxes related to
the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of an Award, and (ii) require a Participant or other person receiving Shares under the
Plan to pay a cash amount sufficient to cover any required withholding taxes before actual receipt of those Shares. In lieu of
all or any part of a cash payment from a person receiving Shares under the Plan, the Committee may permit the individual to cover
all or any part of the required tax withholdings (but not to exceed the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld if such
limitation is necessary to avoid an adverse accounting impact) by authorizing the Company to withhold a number of the Shares that
would otherwise be delivered to the Participant, or by delivering to the Company Shares already owned by the Participant, with
the Shares so withheld or delivered having a Fair Market Value on the date the taxes are required to be withheld equal to the amount
of taxes to be withheld.

 

    	 	14	 

     

    

 

15.       Effective
Date, Duration, Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

 

(a)       Effective
Date. The Plan shall become effective on the date it is approved by the Company’s shareholders, which shall be considered
the date of its adoption for purposes of Treasury Regulation §1.422-2(b)(2)(i). Upon approval of the Plan by the Company’s
shareholders as provided in the preceding sentence, all Awards made under the Plan on or after the date of its approval by the
Board shall be fully effective. If the Company’s shareholders fail to approve the Plan within 12 months after the date of
its approval by the Board, the Plan and any Awards made thereunder shall be terminated and of no further force or effect.

 

(b)       Duration
of the Plan. The Plan shall remain in effect until all Shares subject to it are distributed, all Awards have expired or terminated,
the Plan is terminated pursuant to Section 15(c), or the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Plan, whichever occurs
first (the “Termination Date”). Awards made before the Termination Date shall continue to be outstanding in accordance
with their terms and the terms of the Plan unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agreements.

 

(c)       Amendment
and Termination of the Plan. The Board may at any time terminate, suspend or amend the Plan. The Company shall submit any amendment
of the Plan to its shareholders for approval only to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or the rules of any
securities exchange on which the Shares may then be listed. No termination, suspension, or amendment of the Plan may materially
impair the rights of any Participant under a previously granted Award without the Participant's consent, unless such action is
necessary to comply with applicable law or stock exchange rules.

 

(d)       Amendment
of Awards. Subject to Section 15(e), the Committee may unilaterally amend the terms of any Agreement previously granted, except
that no such amendment may materially impair the rights of any Participant under the applicable Award without the Participant's
consent, unless such amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or stock exchange rules or any compensation recovery
policy as provided in Section 17(i).

 

(e)       No
Option or SAR Repricing. Except as provided in Section 12(a), no Option or Stock Appreciation Right Award granted under the
Plan may be (i) amended to decrease the exercise price thereof, (ii) cancelled in conjunction with the grant of any new Option
or Stock Appreciation Right Award with a lower exercise price, (iii) cancelled in exchange for cash, other property or the grant
of any Full Value Award at a time when the per share exercise price of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right Award is greater
than the current Fair Market Value of a Share, or (iv) otherwise subject to any action that would be treated under accounting rules
as a “repricing” of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right Award, unless such action is first approved by the Company’s
shareholders.

 

16.       Performance-Based
Compensation.

 

 

(a)       Designation
of Awards. If the Committee determines at the time a Full Value Award is granted to a Participant that such Participant is,
or is likely to be, a “covered employee” for purposes of Code Section 162(m) as of the end of the tax year in which
the Company would ordinarily claim a tax deduction in connection with such Award, then the Committee may provide that this Section
16 will be applicable to such Award, which shall be considered Performance-Based Compensation.

 

(b)       Compliance
with Code Section 162(m). If an Award is subject to this Section 16, then the grant of the Award, the vesting and lapse of
restrictions thereon and/or the distribution of cash, Shares or other property pursuant thereto, as applicable, shall be subject
to the achievement over the applicable performance period of one or more performance goals based on one or more of the performance
measures specified in Section 16(c). The Committee will select the applicable performance measure(s) and specify the performance
goal(s) based on those performance measures for any performance period, specify in terms of an objective formula or standard the
method for calculating the amount payable to a Participant if the performance goal(s) are satisfied, and certify the degree to
which applicable performance goals have been satisfied and any amount that vests and is payable in connection with an Award subject
to this Section 16, all within the time periods prescribed by and consistent with the other requirements of Code Section 162(m).
In specifying the performance goals applicable to any performance period, the Committee may provide that one or more objectively
determinable adjustments shall be made to the performance measures on which the performance goals are based, which may include
adjustments that would cause such measures to be considered “non-GAAP financial measures” within the meaning of Rule
101 under Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as excluding the impact of specified unusual
or nonrecurring events such as acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring activities, asset write-downs, litigation judgments or
settlements or changes in tax laws or accounting principles. The Committee may also adjust performance measures for a performance
period to the extent permitted by Code Section 162(m) in connection with an event described in Section 12(a) to prevent the dilution
or enlargement of a Participant’s rights with respect to Performance-Based Compensation. The Committee may adjust downward,
but not upward, any amount determined to be otherwise payable in connection with an Award subject to this Section 16. The Committee
may also provide, in an Agreement or otherwise, that the achievement of specified performance goals in connection with an Award
subject to this Section 16 may be waived upon the death or Disability of the Participant or under any other circumstance with respect
to which the existence of such possible waiver will not cause the Award to fail to qualify as “performance-based compensation”
under Code Section 162(m).

 

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

(c)       Performance
Measures. For purposes of any Full Value Award considered Performance-Based Compensation subject to this Section 16, the performance
measures to be utilized shall be limited to one or a combination of two or more of the following performance measures: (a) cash
flow, (b) earnings per share, (c) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, (d) return on equity, (e) total
shareholder return, (f) share price performance, (g) return on capital, (h) return on assets or net assets, (i) total dental group
practice revenue, revenue or net revenue, including net revenue per office, (j) income or net income, (k) operating income or net
operating income, (l) operating profit or net operating profit, (m) operating margin or profit margin, (n) return on total dental
group practice revenue, revenue or net revenue, (o) return on invested capital, and (p) contribution from dental offices. The Committee
may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under a Qualifying Performance Criteria to exclude any of the following
events that occurs during a performance period: (i) asset write-downs, (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (iii)
the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) accruals
for reorganization and restructuring programs and (v) any extraordinary non-recurring items described in the Company's Exchange
Act filings. Any performance goal based on one or more of the foregoing performance measures may be expressed in absolute amounts,
on a per share basis (basic or diluted), relative to one or more other performance measures, as a growth rate or change from preceding
periods, or as a comparison to the performance of specified companies, indices or other external measures, and may relate to one
or any combination of Company, Affiliate, Affiliated Corporation division, business unit, operational unit or individual performance.

 

17.       Other
Provisions. 

 

(a)       Unfunded
Plan. The Plan shall be unfunded and the Company shall not be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented
by Awards under the Plan. Neither the Company, its Affiliates, the Committee, nor the Board shall be deemed to be a trustee of
any amounts to be paid under the Plan nor shall anything contained in the Plan or any action taken pursuant to its provisions create
or be construed to create a fiduciary relationship between the Company and/or its Affiliates, and a Participant. To the extent
any person has or acquires a right to receive a payment in connection with an Award under the Plan, this right shall be no greater
than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company.

 

    	 	16	 

     

    

 

(b)       Limits
of Liability. Except as may be required by law, neither the Company nor any member of the Board or of the Committee, nor any
other person participating (including participation pursuant to a delegation of authority under Section 3(c) of the Plan) in any
determination of any question under the Plan, or in the interpretation, administration or application of the Plan, shall have any
liability to any party for any action taken, or not taken, in good faith under the Plan.

 

(c)       Compliance
with Applicable Legal Requirements. No Shares distributable pursuant to the Plan shall be issued and delivered unless the issuance
of the Shares complies with all applicable legal requirements, including compliance with the provisions of applicable state and
federal securities laws, and the requirements of any securities exchanges on which the Company’s Shares may, at the time,
be listed. During any period in which the offering and issuance of Shares under the Plan is not registered under federal or state
securities laws, Participants shall acknowledge that they are acquiring Shares under the Plan for investment purposes and not for
resale, and that Shares may not be transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement under, or an exemption from
the registration requirements of, such securities laws.  Any stock certificate or book-entry evidencing Shares issued under
the Plan that are subject to securities law restrictions shall bear or be accompanied by an appropriate restrictive legend or stop
transfer instruction.

 

(d)       Other
Benefit and Compensation Programs. Payments and other benefits received by a Participant under an Award made pursuant to the
Plan shall not be deemed a part of a Participant’s regular, recurring compensation for purposes of the termination, indemnity
or severance pay laws of any country and shall not be included in, nor have any effect on, the determination of benefits under
any other employee benefit plan, contract or similar arrangement provided by the Company or an Affiliate unless expressly so provided
by such other plan, contract or arrangement, or unless the Committee expressly determines that an Award or portion of an Award
should be included to accurately reflect competitive compensation practices or to recognize that an Award has been made in lieu
of a portion of competitive cash compensation.

 

(e)       Governing
Law. To the extent that federal laws do not otherwise control, the Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant
to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado without regard to its conflicts-of-law principles and shall
be construed accordingly.

 

(f)       Severability.
If any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the
remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

 

(g)       Code
Section 409A. It is intended that (i) all Awards of Options, SARs and Restricted Stock under the Plan will not provide for
the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A and thereby be exempt from Code Section 409A, and (ii) all
other Awards under the Plan will either not provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A, or
will comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, and Awards shall be structured and the Plan administered and interpreted
in accordance with this intent. The Plan and any Agreement may be unilaterally amended by the Company in any manner deemed necessary
or advisable by the Committee or Board in order to maintain such exemption from or compliance with Code Section 409A, and any such
amendment shall conclusively be presumed to be necessary to comply with applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the Plan or any Agreement, with respect to any Award that constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Code Section 409A:

 

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

(1)       If
any amount is payable under such Award upon a termination of Service, a termination of Service will be deemed to have occurred
only at such time as the Participant has experienced a “separation from service” as such term is defined for purposes
of Code Section 409A;

 

(2)       If
any amount shall be payable with respect to any such Award as a result of a Participant’s “separation from service”
at such time as the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, then no payment
shall be made, except as permitted under Code Section 409A, prior to the first business day after the earlier of (i) the date
that is six months after the Participant’s separation from service or (ii) the Participant’s death. Unless the Committee
has adopted a specified employee identification policy as contemplated by Code Section 409A, specified employees will be identified
in accordance with the default provisions specified under Code Section 409A.

 

None of the Company, the Board, the Committee
nor any other person involved with the administration of this Plan shall (i) in any way be responsible for ensuring the exemption
of any Award from, or compliance by any Award with, the requirements of Code Section 409A, (ii) have any obligation to design or
administer the Plan or Awards granted thereunder in a manner that minimizes a Participant’s tax liabilities, including the
avoidance of any additional tax liabilities under Code Section 409A, and (iii) shall have any liability to any Participant for
any such tax liabilities.

 

(h)       Rule
16b-3. It is intended that the Plan and all Awards granted pursuant to it shall be administered by the Committee so as to permit
the Plan and Awards to comply with Exchange Act Rule 16b-3. If any provision of the Plan or of any Award would otherwise frustrate
or conflict with the intent expressed in this Section 17(h), that provision to the extent possible shall be interpreted and deemed
amended in the manner determined by the Committee so as to avoid the conflict. To the extent of any remaining irreconcilable conflict
with this intent, the provision shall be deemed void as applied to Participants subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act to the
extent permitted by law and in the manner deemed advisable by the Committee.

 

(i)       Forfeiture
and Compensation Recovery. Awards and any compensation associated therewith may be made subject to forfeiture, recovery by
the Company or other action pursuant to any compensation recovery policy adopted by the Board or the Committee at any time, including
in response to the requirements of Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any implementing rules and regulations thereunder, or as
otherwise required by law. Agreements may contain provisions to comply with any such compensation recovery policy, and any Agreement
may be unilaterally amended by the Committee to comply with any such compensation recovery policy.

INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY & SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES AGREEMENT

 

This
Information Technology & Software Services Agreement (“Agreement”) is made this 5th day of February

NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties have agreed and do
agree as follows:

 

AGREEMENT

 

	1.	Contracted
    Services. This Agreement shall apply to the delivery of information technology services, support, and functions as further
    described in Statements of Work (SOW or Base Services) that may be proposed and approved by the parties. Any such approved
    SOW shall be incorporated herein by reference (the services and functions described in any SOW are hereafter referred to as
    the “Services”). If the scope of the Services is expanded, revised, or modified, for any SOW incorporated herein,
    the parties shall prepare and sign an amended or new SOW (or change order), which likewise shall be attached hereto and incorporated
    herein by reference. Absent the execution of a SOW, this Agreement does not, in and of itself, represent a commitment by Customer
    to receive any Services from the Company or pay the Company any fees.
	 	 
	2.	The
    Term of Agreement.
	 	 
	(a)	The
    term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date set forth above and will continue until terminated by either party
    as provided below (“Term”). If the SOW provides for a different Term, the SOW Term will control for that specific
    SOW only.
	 	 
	(b)	Either
    party shall have the option to terminate this Agreement, without cause, by providing ninety (90) days notice days’ notice
    of its intent to terminate the Agreement without cause, provided that the parties retain the right to agree to such shorter
    period of notice. If a SOW provides for a different termination notice period, the SOW termination clause will control for
    that specific SOWonly. This clause shall be without prejudice to clause 14 hereof.
	 	 
	(c)	If
    there is a continuing need for any Services identified in a SOW, after the expiration of this Agreement and Customer requests,
    in writing, to have the Company complete the Services, this Agreement will automatically renew for the period that it takes
    for the completion of such Services.
	 	 
	(d)	The
    Agreement can be terminated for cause, as defined in paragraph 14(a) herein, at any time provided the alleged breaching party
    is provided an opportunity to cure the alleged breach in the manner set forth in paragraph 14(a) below or a Permitted Delay,
    as defined in paragraph 14(d) herein, does not apply.
	 	 
	3.	Fees
    and Payment Terms.
	 	 
	(a)	In
    exchange for the Services performed by the Company, as set forth in any SOW, Customer agrees to compensate the Company at
    the rates identified in the fee schedule set forth in a SOW. Such rates are exclusive of any federal, state, or local sales
    or use taxes, or any other taxes or fees assessed on, or in connection with any of the Services rendered herein. Customer
    will pay all undisputed invoices within fifteen (15) days of receipt thereof.
	 	 
	(b)	In
    addition, Customer shall reimburse the Company its actual out-of-pocket expenses as reasonably incurred by the Company in
    connection with the performance of Services. Additional expenses for materials, services, training and hardware may only be
    incurred by the Company and charged to Customer if prior written approval from Customer has been obtained.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

	(c)	A
    late charge of one and one-half percent (11⁄2%) per month, or the legal maximum if less, shall accrue on past due billings
    unless Customer notifies the Company of a billing dispute in writing prior to the payment due date. Customer shall be responsible
    for any costs incurred by the Company in the collection of unpaid invoices including, but not limited to, collection and filing
    costs and reasonable attorney’s fees of not less than fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding balance due.
	 	 
	4.	Change
    Orders or Out of Scope Services. To the extent that Customer requires or requests additional services or services that
    exceed the Services set forth in any SOW incorporated herein, the Company will charge an additional fee for such other services
    or out of scope work. Fees for such other services or out of scope work will be set forth on a Change Authorization Order
    (CAO), which will also provide a description of the changed or additional service(s) being requested. Once a CAO is signed
    by both parties, it will be incorporated into the Agreement and have the same legal effect as the SOW that is incorporated
    into the Agreement.
	 	 
	5.	Ownership
    of Materials Related to Services. The Parties agree that any materials prepared and delivered by the Company, will result
    in Parties jointly owning all right, title to and interest in (i) all Systems as described in the SOW Schedule and (ii) all
    the added features and benefits made to the Systems as defined in the SOW Schedule. The Parties shall jointly own all inventions,
    IPs, copyrights and distribution rights conceived solely pursuant to the Research and Development Plan. Notwithstanding the
    foregoing, the parties recognize that performance of the Company hereunder will require the skills of the Company and, therefore,
    the Company shall retain the right to use, without fee and for any purpose, such “know-how”, ideas, techniques
    and concepts used or developed by the Company during performance of the services of this Agreement.
	 	 
	6.	Independent
    Contractor. The parties enter into this Agreement as independent contractors and nothing within this Agreement shall be
    construed to create a joint venture, partnership, agency, or other employment relationship between the parties other than
    as defined in Section 5, which defines Ownership of Materials Related to Services. All the Company employees who are assigned
    to perform services at any Customer owned or leased facility shall be an employee of the Company only and will not be considered
    an agent or employee of Customer for any purpose. The  Company will be solely responsible for payment of all compensation
    owed to its employees, including all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes and will make deductions for all
    taxes and withholdings required by law. In no event will any the Company employee be eligible for or entitled to any benefits
    to Customer.
	 	 
	7.	Confidential
    Information.
	 	 
	(a)	Customer
    understands and acknowledges that the Company may, from time to time, disclose “Confidential Information” to Customer.
    For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall include but not be limited to any nonpublic
    and/or proprietary information or materials relating to the Company’s promotional and/or marketing strategy and activity,
    the Company’s pricing information (including but not limited to rates, margins, and budgets), the Company’s financial
    and budget information, the Company’s customer lists, information about the education, background, experience, and/or
    skills possessed by the Company employees, the Company employee compensation information, the Company’s service and/or
    sales concepts, the Company’s service and/or sales methodology, the Company’s service and/or sales techniques,
    the Company’s customer satisfaction data or sales information, or any information which the Company marks or identifies
    as “confidential” at the time of disclosure or confirms in writing as confidential within a reasonable time (not
    to exceed thirty (30) days) after disclosure. Customer will not disclose the Company’s Confidential Information to any
    third party at any time without the prior written consent of the Company and shall take reasonable measures to prevent any
    unauthorized disclosure by its employees, agents, contractors, or consultants. Further, the Company’s Confidential Information
    shall include the terms set forth in this Agreement, all of which shall remain the property of the Company and shall in no
    event be transferred, conveyed, or assigned to Customer because of the services provided pursuant to this Agreement. The foregoing
    duty shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

	(b)	The
    the Company also understands and acknowledges that Customer may, from time to time, disclose to the Company proprietary ideas,
    concepts, expertise, and technologies developed by Customer relating to computer application programming, installation, and
    operation (collectively “Customer’s Confidential Information”). Customer may further provide to the Company
    documentation, reports, memoranda, notes, drawings, plans, papers, recordings, data, designs, materials, or other forms of
    records or information relating to Customer’s business operations (collectively “Confidential Trade Information”).
    the Company agrees (i) not to use any Customer Confidential Information or Confidential Trade Information for its own use
    or for any purpose other than the specific purpose of completing the Services; (ii) not to voluntarily disclose any Customer
    Confidential Information or Confidential Trade Information to any other person or entity; and (iii) to take all reasonable
    measures to protect the secrecy of, and avoid disclosure or use of, Customer Confidential Information and/or Confidential
    Trade Information in order to prevent it from falling into the public domain or the possession of persons other than those
    persons authorized hereunder to have such Customer Confidential Information and/or Confidential Trade Information. The foregoing
    duty shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
	 	 
	(c)	In
    no event shall Customer use the Company’s Confidential Information to reverse engineer or otherwise develop products
    or services functionally equivalent to the products or services of the Owner.
	 	 
	(d)	The
    following shall not be considered Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement: (a) Information which is or becomes
    in the public domain through no fault or act of the receiving party; (b) Information which was independently developed by
    the receiving party without the use of or reliance on the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; (c) Information
    which was provided to the receiving party by a third party under no duty of confidentiality to the disclosing party; or (d)
    Information which is required to be disclosed by law with no further obligation of confidentiality, provided, however, prompt
    prior notice thereof shall be given to the party whose Confidential Information is involved.
	 	 
	(e)	The
    parties agree that the disclosure of any of the foregoing Confidential Information by either party shall give rise to irreparable
    injury to the owner of the Confidential Information, inadequately compensable in monetary damages. Accordingly, the no disclosing
    party may seek and obtain injunctive relief against the breach or threatened breach of the foregoing undertakings, in addition
    to any other legal remedies which may be available.
	 	 
	8.	No
    solicitation of Employees. Customer will not, either directly or indirectly (except through the Company) solicit, hire,
    or contract with any the Company employee during the term of this Agreement and for a one (1) year period following termination
    thereof (hereafter the “No solicitation Term”). If Customer desires to hire any the Company employee during the
    Nonsolicitation Term directly, Customer must first seek the Company’s consent to hire the employee directly and to speak
    with the Company employee about the employment opportunity. If the Company grants Customer the option to employ a Company
    employee directly, and the Company employee accepts an offer of employment from Customer, the parties shall discuss issues
    related to the employee’s transition to Customer. The employee’s start date will be mutually agreed upon by Customer
    and the Company in writing. Provided the parties agree to the Company employee’s transition terms, Customer shall pay
    the Company a placement fee of no less than 20% of offered salary prior to the Company employee commencing work as an employee
    of Customer. Unless the parties agree otherwise, Customer shall not directly hire more than two the Company employees during
    the Non-Solicitation Term. If Customer hires the Company employee without first obtaining the consent of the Company, Customer
    shall pay the Company liquidated damage equal to 100% of the employee’s fair market salary, as determined by the Company
    in its sole discretion. This provision is considered a material term that allows for accelerated termination rights under
    paragraph 14 of this Agreement.
	 	 
	9.	Customer
    Responsibilities. In addition to any obligations and responsibilities described in the SOW or elsewhere in this Agreement,
    Customer shall have shared responsibility with the Company regarding the following:
	 	 
	(a)	To
    ensure that the necessary business and application knowledge is available and conveyed from the Customer’s existing
    support team to the Company’s support team.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

	(b)	Provide
    ready access to all appropriate computing platforms, documentation (e.g., program source, copybooks, tables, subroutines)
    and personnel (i.e., end users and technical representatives) necessary to fully understand the current business systems and
    environments throughout the life of the engagement.
	 	 
	(c)	Provide
    at its facility, office space and equipment for the Company’s on-site employees. Access will also be provided to the
    Customer’s source libraries, test systems, and test data.
	 	 
	(d)	Provide
    external communications capability and/or access to its work facility to enable the Company’s on- site project team
    to access the Customer’s information technology system for after hours or weekend Services as required.
	 	 
	(e)	Customer
    shall assign an employee or representative to be present at the work facility for any after hours or weekend Services provided
    by the Company. If Customer declines or fails to assign an employee or representative to be present during such hours, Customer
    waives all claims for any property damage or loss that occurs during such time that the Company’s employee(s) is on
    the Customer’s work facility.
	 	 
	(f)	Provide
    passwords and job numbers to the Company employees as needed.
	 	 
	10.	Warranty
    of Services. Any warranty offered by the Company for Services provided herein shall be set forth in the SOW. In the absence
    of any warranty language in the SOW, the Company warrants that all Services performed pursuant to this Agreement will be performed
    in accordance with the general standards and practices of the information technology industry in existence at the time the
    Services are being performed. IN THE EVENT THAT THERE IS NO WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THE SOW, THE FOREGOING EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY
    IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN, CONTRACTUAL OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING
    BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE.
	 	 
	11.	Limitation
    of Liability. Customer agrees that the Company shall not be liable to Customer, or any third party, for (1) any liability
    claims, loss, damages or expense of any kind arising directly or indirectly out of services provided herein for (2) any incidental
    or consequential damages, however caused, and Customer agrees to indemnify and hold the Company harmless against such liabilities,
    claims, losses, damages (significant or otherwise) or expenses, or actions in respect thereof, asserted or brought against
    the Company by or in right of third parties or for (3) any punitive damages, provided that such claims, loss, damages or expenses
    are not the result of the fraud, willful default, misconduct and/or negligence of the Company or any of its employees, principals
    (partners, shareholders or holders of an ownership interest, as the case may be), agents, delegates and/or contractors. For
    purposes of this Agreement, incidental or consequential damages shall include, but not be limited to, loss of anticipated
    revenues, income, profits or savings; loss of or damage to business reputation or good will; loss of Customers; loss of business
    or financial opportunity; or any other indirect or special damages of any kind categorized as consequential or incidental

    expense relating to bodily injury or death of any person or damage to real and/or tangible personal property directly caused
    solely by the negligence or willful conduct of the indemnifying party, its personnel or agents in connection with the performance
    of the Services hereunder. To the extent that such claim arises from the concurrent conduct of Customer, the Company and/or
    any third party, it is expressly agreed that the Company’s liability shall be limited by the terms and provisions of
    paragraph eleven herein and that, with respect to any remaining obligations to pay any third party claims, demands, losses,
    damages or expenses that are not limited by the terms and provisions of paragraph eleven (11) herein, each party’s obligations
    of indemnity under this paragraph shall be effective only to the extent of each party’s pro rata share of liability.
    To receive the foregoing indemnities, the party seeking indemnification must promptly notify the other in writing of a claim
    or suit and provide reasonable cooperation (at the indemnifying party’s expense) and full authority to defend or settle
    the claim or suit. The indemnifying party shall have no obligation to indemnify the indemnified party under any settlement
    made without the indemnifying party’s written consent.

    State and local laws. Customer likewise represents that it will not discriminate in the referral or acceptance of Consultants
    hereunder based on race, color, sex, age, marital status, national origin, handicap, religious beliefs, veteran’s status
    or other protected category as required by applicable federal, state and local laws.
	 	 
	14.	Termination.
	 	 
	(a)	Termination
    for Cause: If either party believes that the other party has failed in any material respect to performing its obligations
    under this Agreement (including any Exhibits or Amendments hereto), then that party may provide written a notice to the other
    party’s management representative describing the alleged failure in reasonable detail. If the alleged failure relates
    to an inability to pay any sum due and owing under this Agreement or if Customer makes an unauthorized solicitation of the
    Company employee under the provisions of paragraph eight (8) herein, the breaching party shall have ten (10) business days
    after notice of such failure to cure the breach. If the breaching party fails to cure within ten (10) business days, then
    the non-breaching party may immediately terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, for cause by providing written a notice
    to the management representative of the breaching party. With respect to all other defaults, if the breaching party does not,
    within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving such written notice, either (a) cure the material failure or (b) if the breach
    is not one that can reasonably be cured within thirty (30) calendar days, then the non-breaching party may terminate this
    Agreement, in whole or in part, for cause by providing written notice to the management representative of the breaching party.
	 	 
	(b)	Termination
    for Bankruptcy: Either party shall have the immediate right to terminate this Agreement, by providing written notice to
    the other party, in the event that (i) the other party becomes insolvent, enters into receivership, is the subject of a voluntary
    or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (ii) a substantial part of the
    other party’s property becomes subject to any levy, seizure, assignment or sale for or by any creditor or government
    agency.
	 	 
	(c)	Payments
    Due: The termination of this Agreement shall not release either party from the obligation to make payment of all amounts
    then or thereafter due and payable.
	 	 
	(d)	Permitted
    Delays: Each party hereto shall be excused from performance hereunder for any period and to the extent that it is prevented
    from performing any services pursuant hereto in whole or in part, as a result of delays caused by the other party or an act
    of God, or other cause beyond its reasonable control and which it could not have prevented by reasonable precautions, including
    failures or fluctuations in electric power, heat, light, air conditioning or telecommunication equipment, and such nonperformance
    shall not be a default hereunder or a ground for termination hereof. the Company’s time of performance shall be enlarged,
    if and to the extent reasonably necessary, in the event: (i) that Customer fails to submit information, instructions, approvals,
    or any other required element in the prescribed form or in accordance with the agreed upon schedules; (ii) of a special request
    by Customer or any governmental agency authorized to regulate, supervise, or impact the Company’s normal processing
    schedule; (iii) that Customer fails to provide any equipment, software, premises or performance called for by this Agreement,
    and the same is necessary for the Company’s performance hereunder. the Company will notify Customer of the estimated
    impact on its processing schedule, if any.
	 	 
	(e)	Continuation
    of Services: The Company will continue to perform Services during the notice period unless otherwise mutually agreed upon
    by the parties in writing. If Customer provides the notice of termination and directs the Company not to perform the services
    through the notice period, Customer agrees to pay the Company an amount equal to the amount generally due to the Company for
    the notice period. Upon termination by either party, Customer will reimburse the Company for all services performed and charges
    and expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with the services provided under this Agreement through the
    date of termination.
	 	 
	15.	Miscellaneous
    Clauses:
	 	 
	(a)	Non-Restrictive
    Relationship. the Company may provide the same or similar services to other customers and Customer may utilize other information
    technology service providers that are competitive with the Company.
	 	 
	(b)	Waiver.
    The rights and remedies provided to each of the parties herein shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights
    and remedies provided by law or otherwise. Any failure in the exercise by either party of its right to terminate this Agreement
    or to enforce any provision of this Agreement for default or violation by the other party shall not prejudice such party’s
    rights of termination or enforcement for any further or other’s default or breach or be deemed a waiver or forfeiture
    of those rights.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

	(c)	Force
    Majeure. Neither party will be liable to the other for failure to perform its obligations hereunder if and to the extent
    that such failure to deliver results from causes beyond its control, including and without limitation: strikes, lockouts,
    or other industrial disturbances; civil disturbances; fires; acts of God; acts of a public enemy; compliance with any regulations,
    order, or requirement of any governmental body or agency; or inability to obtain transportation or necessary materials in
