AMENDMENT
TO SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

This
Amendment (this “Amendment”), made as of the 23rd day of June 2019 (the “Amendment Date”),
is to the Severance Agreement, which had an effective date of January 1, 2006, by and between AF Services, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (“AFS”) and Brandon LaVerne (“Employee”) (the “Agreement”
and attached hereto as Exhibit A). Subsequent to the execution of the Agreement, Employee became employed by PCM, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (formerly known as PC Mall, Inc. and referred to herein as the “Company”), and PCM, Inc. assumed
the rights and obligations of AFS under the Agreement (and PCM, Inc. is the “Company” for purposes of the Agreement)
and this Amendment is therefore by and between Employee and PCM, Inc.

 

W
I T N E S E T H:

 

WHEREAS,
the parties wish to update and modify certain parts of the Agreement by this Amendment; and

 

WHEREAS,
this Amendment is a written agreement signed by the parties as required by Section 6 of the Agreement with respect to modifying
the Agreement.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree
as follows:

 

1.   Restatement
of Section 1.2. Section 1.2 of the Agreement shall be hereby entirely replaced with the below language:

 

1.2   If Employee’s employment terminates due to a Qualifying Termination (as defined below in Section 1.4) at any point, after
execution (and non-revocation) of a severance and release agreement that is acceptable to the Company’s Board of Directors
and that contains, among other things, a release provision, the Company shall pay Employee the equivalent of six months of Employee’s
then-Base Salary (“Cash Severance”) plus the below medical insurance benefits (the “Severance and Release Agreement”).
The Severance and Release Agreement must become effective by its own terms within fifty-five days after termination of Employee’s
employment in order for any severance benefits to be made. The Cash Severance payments will be paid as follows: (i) the first
installment in an amount equal to one-sixth of Base Salary will be paid to Employee on the 60th day after Employee’s
termination of employment and (ii) thereafter the Company shall make four equal monthly installments (each in an amount equal
to one-twelfth of Base Salary) to Employee commencing with the calendar month following the calendar month of the payment made
under clause (i). For purposes of this paragraph, any reductions to Base Salary which were not agreed to in writing by Employee
shall be disregarded with respect to determining what Employee’s then-Base Salary was as of the time of the Qualifying Termination.
In addition to the Cash Severance, subject to immediate cessation if Employee obtains medical coverage through another employer
(or Employee is offered other medical coverage through another employer but Employee does not accept such coverage), the Company
shall continue to pay the Company portion of the premium for Employee’s Company group medical insurance coverage for Employee
and his dependents (who were being covered under the Company’s group medical insurance as of immediately before the date
of the Qualifying Termination) for the twelve month period commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the date
of the Qualifying Termination provided that Employee timely pays any portion of the necessary premiums that Employee would be
required to pay if Employee were still an employee and Employee timely makes the necessary elections to continue such group medical
coverage after the date of the Qualifying Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that its payment
of the premiums on Employee’s behalf would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of Code Section 105(h)(2)
or any statute or regulation of similar effect (including but not limited to the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,
as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act), then the Company shall instead each month during such twelve
month period (or shorter duration if the Employee ceases to be covered under the Company’s group medical insurance plan)
provide Employee with a taxable payment equal to the amount of the Company-portion of the premiums which Employee may, but is
not required to, use towards the cost of such medical coverage. After the Company has satisfied its severance payment obligations
under this paragraph, and except for the benefits that have vested and accrued, all obligations of the Company under this Agreement
shall immediately cease upon termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.

 

    	-1-

    	 

    

 

2.   Restatement
of Section 1.4. Section 1.4 of the Agreement shall be hereby entirely replaced with the below language:

 

1.4   For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Good Reason" shall mean: the occurrence of any one or more of the following
without Employee’s written consent: (i) a material reduction of the material duties and responsibilities assigned to Employee,
(ii) a material reduction (of at least ten percent in the aggregate) in Employee’s Base Salary under Section 1.5; (iii)
a material reduction (of at least ten percent in the aggregate) in Employee’s annual bonus opportunity; (iv) a relocation
of Employee’s principal place of employment to a new location that is more than fifty (50) miles away; or (v) the Company’s
material breach of this Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, “Good Reason” shall only be found to exist if, prior to Employee’s resignation and within ninety
(90) days after the initial existence of an alleged event of Good Reason, Employee has provided written notice to the Company
describing such alleged Good Reason event(s), and the Company does not cure or remedy such event within thirty (30) days following
the Company’s receipt of such notice from Employee, and the date of Employee’s termination of employment due to Employee’s
resignation for Good Reason occurs within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the foregoing thirty (30) day cure/remedy period.
The foregoing Good Reason definition is intended to satisfy the Good Reason safe harbor requirements under the Internal Revenue
Code Section 409A regulations.

 

    	-2-

    	 

    

 

For
purposes of this Agreement, the term "Qualifying Termination" shall mean that Employee has experienced a “separation
from service” (as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A) with the Company due to (i) Employee’s resignation
of employment for Good Reason or (ii) the Company terminating Employee’s employment without Cause. A separation from service
due to Employee’s death or disability is not a Qualifying Termination.

 

3.   Addition
of New Section 1.5. Section 1.5 of the Agreement shall be hereby added to the Agreement and shall contain the below language.
For avoidance of doubt, the below revisions are intended purely to merely reflect the current level of base salary being paid
as of the Amendment Date and does not (i) alter the current amount of base salary or (ii) connote when such base salary amounts
were changed in the past or (iii) provide any entitlement to greater compensation or backpay.

 

1.5   As compensation for Employee's services, the Company will pay to Employee an annual base salary in the gross amount of $381,000
(the "Base Salary"), payable in accordance with the Company's regularly established payroll practices.

 

4.   Addition of New Section 12. Section 12 of the Agreement shall be hereby added to the Agreement and shall contain the below
language:

 

12.   Section
409A. This Agreement and its payments and benefits are intended to comply with (or be exempt from) the requirements of Internal
Revenue Code Section 409A (“Section 409A”) and will be interpreted and administered in accordance with such intention.
In the event this Agreement or any other payment or benefit provided to Employee is deemed to be subject to Section 409A, Employee
consents to the Company adopting such conforming amendments or taking such actions as the Company deems necessary, in its discretion
(and without an obligation to do so), to comply with Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made to Employee
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise will be designated as a separate payment. To the extent any nonqualified deferred compensation
payment to Employee could be paid in one or more of Employee’s taxable years depending upon Employee completing certain
employment-related actions, then any such payments will commence or occur in the later taxable year to the extent required by
Section 409A. The Company reserves the right to at any time terminate any nonqualified deferred compensation plan or arrangement
involving Employee in accordance with the Section 409A plan termination regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
if upon Employee’s “separation from service” (as defined under Section 409A) Employee is then a “specified
employee” (as defined under Section 409A), then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A and avoid the imposition
of taxes under Section 409A, the Company shall defer payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section
409A payable as a result of and within six (6) months following Employee’s separation from service until the earlier of
(i) the first business day of the seventh month following Employee’s separation from service (or if later, and solely if
required in order to avoid or minimize the amount of any Section 409A taxes, December ___, 2020 which is the date that is eighteen
months after the Agreement was amended on June ___, 2019), or (ii) ten (10) days after the Company receives written notification
of Employee’s death. Any such delayed payments shall be made without interest.

 

    	-3-

    	 

    

 

5.       Scope.
Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, the provisions of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect on and
after the Amendment Date.

 

6.       Defined
Terms. Except as otherwise defined in this Amendment, the capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the same meaning
as such terms have in the Agreement.

 

7.       Governing Law. This Amendment has been negotiated and executed in the State of California and shall in all respects be
governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to principles of conflict
of laws.

 

8.       Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but
all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment to the Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the Amendment
Date.

or controversies covered by this agreement. The parties agree that none of those claims or controversies shall be resolved by
a jury trial.

Severability Of Unenforceable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable. In the event that any one or
more of the provisions contained in this Agreement, or the application thereof in any circumstances is held invalid, illegal,

NOW,
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree
as follows:

 

1.   Restatement
of Section 3.1. Section 3.1 of the Agreement shall be hereby entirely replaced with the below language. For avoidance of doubt,
the below revisions to Sections 3.1 and 3.2 are intended purely to merely reflect the current level of base salary and annual

3.   Restatement
of Section 4.2. Section 4.2 of the Agreement shall be hereby entirely replaced with the below language:

 

4.2  If,
however, Employee’s employment terminates due to a Qualifying Termination (as defined below in Section 4.4) at any point,
after execution (and non-revocation) of a severance and release agreement that is acceptable to the Company’s Board of Directors
and that contains, among other things, a release provision, the Company shall pay Employee the equivalent of six months of Employee’s
then-Base Salary (“Cash Severance”) plus the below medical insurance benefits (the “Release Agreement”).
The Release Agreement must become effective by its own terms within fifty-five days after termination of Employee’s employment
in order for any severance benefits to be made. The Cash Severance payments will be paid as follows: (i) the first installment
in an amount equal to one-sixth of Base Salary will be paid to Employee on the 60th day after Employee’s termination
of employment and (ii) thereafter the Company shall make four equal monthly installments (each in an amount equal to one-twelfth

For purposes of this paragraph, any reductions to Base Salary which were not agreed to in writing by Employee shall be disregarded
with respect to determining what Employee’s then-Base Salary was as of the time of the Qualifying Termination. In addition
to the Cash Severance, subject to immediate cessation if Employee obtains medical coverage through another employer (or Employee
is offered other medical coverage through another employer but Employee does not accept such coverage), the Company shall continue
to pay the Company portion of the premium for Employee’s Company group medical insurance coverage for Employee and his dependents
(who were being covered under the Company’s group medical insurance as of immediately before the date of the Qualifying
Termination) for the twelve month period commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the date of the Qualifying
Termination provided that Employee timely pays any portion of the necessary premiums that Employee would be required to pay if
Employee were still an employee and Employee timely makes the necessary elections to continue such group medical coverage after
the date of the Qualifying Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines that its payment of the premiums
on Employee’s behalf would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of Code Section 105(h)(2) or any statute
or regulation of similar effect (including but not limited to the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended
by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act), then the Company shall instead each month during such twelve month
period (or shorter duration if the Employee ceases to be covered under the Company’s group medical insurance plan) provide
Employee with a taxable payment equal to the amount of the Company-portion of the premiums which Employee may, but is not required
to, use towards the cost of such medical coverage. After the Company has satisfied its severance payment obligations under this
Section, all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall immediately cease.

4.   Restatement
of Section 4.4. Section 4.4 of the Agreement shall be hereby entirely replaced with the below language:

a material reduction (of at least ten percent in the aggregate) in Employee’s annual bonus opportunity under Section 3.2;
(iv) a relocation of Employee’s principal place of employment to a new location that is more than fifty (50) miles away;
or (v) the Company’s material breach of this Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, “Good Reason” shall only be found to exist if, prior to Employee’s resignation and within ninety
(90) days after the initial existence of an alleged event of Good Reason, Employee has provided written notice to the Company
describing such alleged Good Reason event(s), and the Company does not cure or remedy such event within thirty (30) days following
the Company’s receipt of such notice from Employee, and the date of Employee’s termination of employment due to Employee’s
resignation for Good Reason occurs within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the foregoing thirty (30) day cure/remedy period.
The foregoing Good Reason definition is intended to satisfy the Good Reason safe harbor requirements under the Internal Revenue
Code Section 409A regulations.

 

For
purposes of this Agreement, the term “Qualifying Termination” shall mean that Employee has experienced a “separation
from service” (as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A) with the Company due to (i) Employee’s resignation
of employment for Good Reason or (ii) the Company terminating Employee’s employment without Cause. A separation from service
due to Employee’s death or disability is not a Qualifying Termination.

5.   Addition
of New Section 16. Section 16 of the Agreement shall be hereby added to the Agreement and shall contain the below language:

 

16.   Section
409A. This Agreement and its payments and benefits are intended to comply with (or be exempt from) the requirements of Internal
Revenue Code Section 409A (“Section 409A”) and will be interpreted and administered in accordance with such intention.
In the event this Agreement or any other payment or benefit provided to Employee is deemed to be subject to Section 409A, Employee
consents to the Company adopting such conforming amendments or taking such actions as the Company deems necessary, in its discretion
(and without an obligation to do so), to comply with Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made to Employee
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise will be designated as a separate payment. To the extent any nonqualified deferred compensation
payment to Employee could be paid in one or more of Employee’s taxable years depending upon Employee completing certain
employment-related actions, then any such payments will commence or occur in the later taxable year to the extent required by
Section 409A. The Company reserves the right to at any time terminate any nonqualified deferred compensation plan or arrangement
involving Employee in accordance with the Section 409A plan termination regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary,
if upon Employee’s “separation from service” (as defined under Section 409A) Employee is then a “specified
employee” (as defined under Section 409A), then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A and avoid the imposition
of taxes under Section 409A, the Company shall defer payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section
409A payable as a result of and within six (6) months following Employee’s separation from service until the earlier of
(i) the first business day of the seventh month following Employee’s separation from service (or if later, and solely if
required in order to avoid or minimize the amount of any Section 409A taxes, December ___, 2020 which is the date that is eighteen
months after the Agreement was amended on June ___, 2019), or (ii) ten (10) days after the Company receives written notification
of Employee’s death. Any such delayed payments shall be made without interest.

 

6.        Scope.
Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, the provisions of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect on and
after the Amendment Date.

 

7.        Defined
Terms. Except as otherwise defined in this Amendment, the capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the same meaning
as such terms have in the Agreement.

 

8.        Governing
Law. This Amendment has been negotiated and executed in the State of California and shall in all respects be governed by and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws.

 

    	-4- 

    	 

    

 

9.        Counterparts.
This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together
will constitute one and the same instrument.

 

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment to the Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the Amendment
Date.

EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT

 

This
Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Robert Newton (“Employee”)
and PC Mall, Inc. (“PC Mall” or the “Company”), effective June 8, 2004 (the “Effective Date”).

 

RECITALS

 

A.                    PC
Mall is a rapid response direct marketer of computer hardware, software, peripheral, and electronics products. The Company engages
in the highly competitive market of offering hardware, software, peripherals, components, and accessories for users of computer
products, as well as electronic equipment.

 

B.                    The
Company has spent significant time, effort, and money to acquire and develop certain goodwill and Proprietary Information (as
defined below) that it considers vital to its business, and which has become of great value to PC Mall in amassing its clientele
and maintaining its operations.

 

C.                    The
Company also has developed a substantial body of Proprietary Information regarding the methods and systems of operation, which
is used by the Company for the acquisition and management of client accounts. PC Mall has also acquired, at great expense and
time, Proprietary Information regarding the particularized needs of its clientele, including information regarding its client’s
finances, marketing, operations, and product needs. The Company has, at all times, kept its Proprietary Information secret, and
such information has given the Company a competitive advantage over others engaged in the same type of business.

 

D.                    The
Company desires to employ Employee as General Counsel of PC Mall, Inc. Employee desires to accept such employment with the Company
on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

And Conditions Of Employment.

 

2.1       Employee
represents and warrants that he will not use for the benefit of, disclose to the Company, or induce the Company to use any confidential

upon the execution by Employee and the Company of a stock option agreement and shall be subject to its terms and the terms of
the Stock Incentive Plan.

3.5       Benefits.
Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s benefit plans made generally available to similarly situated
employees of the Company, including group medical, life and disability insurance, and retirement programs. Employee’s eligibility

the Company or the governing plan documents, which may be amended from time to time in the Company’s sole discretion.

 

3.6       Vacation.
Employee shall be entitled to take paid vacation pursuant to the Company’s existing policies regarding paid vacations. Employee

and his accrued vacation time has dropped below the maximum annual entitlement.

 

3.7       Withholdings.

4.1       At
any time, the Company or Employee may terminate Employee’s employment for any reason, or no reason at all, with or without
cause, and without prior notice. The Company will pay Employee all compensation then due and owing. Thereafter, all of the Company’s
obligations under this Agreement shall cease. The Company may discipline, demote, or dismiss Employee as provided in this Section
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in or arising from any statements, policies, or practices of the Company relating
to the employment, discipline, or termination of its employees.

 

4.2       If,
however, the Company terminates Employee’s employee without Cause (as defined below in Section 4.4) at any point, upon execution
of a severance and release agreement that is acceptable to the Company’s Board of Directors and that contains, among other
things, a release provision, PC Mall shall pay Employee the equivalent of three months of Base Salary. This severance payment

Section 4.2, the Company may terminate Employee’s employment for Cause at any time, without prior notice, and without any
obligation to pay any severance. If Employee is terminated for Cause, the Company shall pay Employee all compensation to which
he is entitled up through the date of termination and thereafter, all obligations of the Company shall immediately cease.

 

    	-3-

With The Company. In the event that Employee’s employment is terminated for any reason, Employee will cooperate with

employment for any reason.

6.         Proprietary
Information; Non-Disclosure; and Non-Solicitation.

 

6.1       Proprietary
Information: For purposes of this Agreement, “Proprietary Information” means all information and any idea in whatever
form, tangible or intangible, whether disclosed to or learned or developed by Employee, pertaining in any manner to the business
of the Company or to the Company’s affiliates (including subsidiaries), consultants, customers, and business associates,
unless: (i) the information is or becomes publicly known through lawful means; (ii) the information was rightfully in Employee’s
possession or part of my general knowledge prior to his employment by the Company; or (iii) the information is disclosed to Employee
without confidential or proprietary restriction by a third party who rightfully possesses the information and did not learn of
it, directly or indirectly, from the Company. Employee further understands that the Company considers the following information
to be included, without limitation, in the definition of Proprietary Information: (a) techniques, development tools and processes,
computer printouts, computer programs, design manuals; (b) information about costs, profits, revenues, margins and markets; (c)
plans for future development and new product concepts; (d) customer names, addresses, telephone numbers, facsimile numbers, credit
card numbers, contact persons and customer preferences; (e) vendor names, addresses, telephone numbers, facsimile numbers, contact
persons, vendor preferences and pricing; (f) marketing plans, bidding information, costs of product, services and other items,

or retrieved by any means, that have been or will be given to Employee by the Company (or any affiliate of it), as well as written
or verbal instructions or comments.

 

    	-4- 

    	 

    

 

6.2       Non-Disclosure.
Employee agrees that his work with the Company will involve access to and creation of Proprietary Information. Employee further
agrees to hold all Proprietary Information in strict confidence and never to use or disclose any Proprietary Information to anyone
at any time, including after the termination of his employment, except to the extent necessary to carry out his responsibilities
as an employee of the Company, or as specifically authorized in writing by an authorized officer of the Company, other than Employee.

 

6.3       Location
And Reproduction. Employee shall maintain at his work station and any other place under his control only such Proprietary
Information as he has a current “need to know.” Employee shall return to the appropriate person or location or otherwise
properly dispose of Proprietary Information once that need to know no longer exists.

belonging to all prior employers, if any.

 

6.5       Non-Solicitation:
Employee understands and agrees that, because of his responsibilities at the Company, he will help to develop, and will be exposed
to the Company’s business strategies, information on customers and clients, and other valuable Proprietary Information,
and that use or disclosure of such Proprietary Information in breach of this

 

Agreement
would be extremely difficult to detect or prove. Employee acknowledges that the Company’s relationships with its employees,
customers, clients, vendors, and other persons are valuable business assets. Therefore, Employee agrees as follows:

 

(a)
Employee shall not, for a period of two years after he is no longer employed by the Company, directly or indirectly solicit, induce,
recruit, or encourage any officer, director, or employee of the Company, or any of the Company’s affiliates, to leave the
Company or terminate his or her employment with the Company;

 

(b)
Employee shall not, for a period of one year after he is no longer employed by the Company: (i) divert or attempt to divert any
business from the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates; (ii) interfere with any business relationship or contract
between the Company, including the Company’s affiliates, and any of its customers, clients, members, vendors, business partners,
or suppliers; or (iii) for the purpose of selling products or services competitive with the Company’s or the Company’s
affiliates, solicit any person, firm, corporation or entity of any kind, that was a customer, client or prospective client of
the Company at any time during the one year period preceding the termination date of Employee’s employment.

 

    	-5- 

    	 

    

 

6.6       Injunctions.
Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Section 6 are reasonable and necessary in view of the nature of Company’s
businesses, in order to protect the legitimate interests of Company, and that any violation thereof would result in irreparable
injury to Company. Therefore, Employee agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Employee of the provisions
of the paragraphs above, the Company shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction, preliminary and permanent
injunctive relief restraining Employee from any violation of the foregoing.

 

7.         Arbitration.

 

7.1       The
Company and Employee hereby agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all claims or controversies between them
(or between Employee and any present or former officer, director, agent, or employee of the Company or any parent, subsidiary,
or other entity affiliated with the Company) shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration.

 

7.2       Claims
subject to arbitration shall include, without limitation, contract claims, tort claims, claims relating to compensation and stock
options, as well as claims based on any federal, state, or local law, statute, or regulation, including but not limited to any
claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities
Act, and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act. However, claims for unemployment benefits, workers’ compensation
claims, and claims under the National Labor Relations Act shall not be subject to arbitration.

 

7.3       Any
arbitration proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes of the
American Arbitration Association (“the AAA Rules”). The arbitrator shall apply the same substantive law, with the
same statutes of limitations and same remedies that would apply if the claims were brought in a court of law.

 

7.4       Either
the Company or Employee may bring an action in court to compel arbitration under this Agreement and to enforce an arbitration
award. Otherwise, neither party shall initiate or prosecute any lawsuit or claim in any way related to any arbitrable claim, including
without limitation any claim as to the making, existence, validity, or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate. Nothing in
this Agreement, however, precludes a party from filing an administrative charge before an agency that has jurisdiction over an
arbitrable claim. Moreover, nothing in this Agreement prohibits either party from seeking provisional relief pursuant to Section
1281.8 of the California Code of Civil Procedure

 

7.5        All
arbitration hearings under this Agreement shall be conducted in Los Angeles, California, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
The arbitration provisions of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), unless the
FAA does not apply, in which case the California Arbitration Act shall apply. In all other respects, this Agreement shall be construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without reference to conflicts of law principles.

 

    	-6- 

    	 

    

 

7.6       Each
party shall pay its own costs and attorney’s fees, unless a party prevails on a statutory claim, and the statute provides
that the prevailing party is entitled to payment of its attorneys’ fees. In that case, the arbitrator may award reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs to the prevailing party as provided by law. The Company agrees to pay the costs and fees of the
arbitrator to the extent required by law.

 

7.7       The
parties also understand and agree that this agreement constitutes a waiver of their right to a trial by jury of any claims or
controversies covered by this agreement. the parties agree that none of those claims or controversies shall be resolved by a jury
trial.

 

8.         Severability.

 

8.1       Severability
Of Unenforceable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable. In the event that any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement, or the application thereof in any circumstances is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any
respect for any reason, the validity and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions
of this Agreement shall not be in any way impaired or affected, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges contained
in this Agreement shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

8.2       Scope.
To the extent that any provision hereof is deemed unenforceable by virtue of its scope, but could be enforceable by reducing the
scope, Employee and the Company agree that same shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public
policies applied in the jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought, and that the Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion,
to modify such invalid or unenforceable provision to the extent required to be valid and enforceable.

 

9.         Successors.

 

This
Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor
or successors of the Company by way of reorganization, merger, acquisition or consolidation, and any assignee of all or substantially
all of the Company’s business and properties.

 

10.       Amendments;
Waivers.

 

This
Agreement may not be orally modified or amended. It may only be modified or amended by an instrument in writing signed by Employee
and by a duly authorized representative of the Company, other than Employee. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising
any right, remedy, or power under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof or as a waiver of any other right, remedy,
or power, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, or power hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
of any other right, remedy, or other power provided herein or by law or in equity.
