or (B) as a result of any acts or omissions of Executive which would entitle Employer to terminate Executive’s employment
for Cause (as defined in Section 6(a) of this Agreement), or (C) by and at the election of the Employer as a result of

in writing that Employer has taken any such Good Reason Action, (2) Employer shall have failed to rescind or cure such Good
Reason Action within thirty (30) consecutive calendar days following its receipt of such Good Reason Termination Notice, and (3) the
Good Reason Termination Notice must expressly state that Executive is terminating his/her employment for Good Reason pursuant to
this Section 6(c) and must describe in reasonable detail the Good Reason Action that entitles Executive to terminate this
Agreement and his/her employment for Good Reason; and (y) Executive shall not be entitled to terminate his/her employment
for Good Reason, if Executive shall have consented to the taking of such Good Reason Action by Employer or if Employer was required
to take any of the above-described actions in order to comply with any applicable laws or government regulations or any order,
ruling, instruction or determination of any court or other tribunal or any government agency having jurisdiction over Employer

(e)          Disability. If Executive shall become disabled so as to be unable to perform the essential
functions of Executive’s then existing position or positions with Employer or with any of Employer’s Affiliates under
this Agreement, then, upon the expiration of the lesser of (i) six (6) months thereafter or (ii) the then remainder of
the Term of this Agreement (the “Interim Disability Period”), Executive’s employment may be terminated by Employer
without liability to Executive, subject to the following terms and provisions. The Board may remove Executive from any responsibilities
and/or reassign Executive to another position with Employer for and the during the Interim Disability Period, provided, however,
that Executive shall continue to receive his/her full Base Annual Salary (less any disability pay or sick pay benefits to which
the Executive may be entitled under the Employer’s policies or benefit programs), together with benefits Executive receives
pursuant to Section 5 hereof (except to the extent that Executive may be ineligible for one or more such benefits under applicable
plan terms), for and during the Interim Disability Period. If any question shall arise as to whether Executive is disabled so as
to be unable to perform the essential functions of Executive’s then existing position or positions, with or without reasonable
accommodation, Executive may, and at the request of Employer shall, submit to Employer a physician’s certification (in reasonable
detail) as to whether Executive is so disabled and how long such disability is expected to continue. Such certification shall be
obtained only from a physician who is selected by Employer and to whom Executive or Executive’s guardian (as the case may
be) has no reasonable objection and the certification so obtained shall for purposes of this Agreement be conclusive of such question
or any issue as to the matters addressed in such certification. Executive shall cooperate with any reasonable request of that physician
in connection with such certification, including a request that Executive undergo any physical or mental examination or tests,
as deemed appropriate by such physician. If Executive shall fail to submit to such an examination or any such tests, as such physician
deems in his/her discretion to be appropriate for purposes of enabling physician to make such certification, then, Employer’s
determinations with respect to the questions of whether Executive is disabled and how long such disability is expected to continue
shall be binding on Executive. Nothing in this Section 6(d) shall be construed to waive the Executive’s rights, if any,
under existing law including, without limitation, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. §2601 et seq. and the
Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §12101 et seq.

 

(f)          Terminations
due to Certain Regulatory Actions Affecting Employer.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be contained elsewhere
in this agreement, this Agreement, and Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate, if a conservator, receiver, or other

jurisdiction or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over Employer. 

 

(g)          Expiration
of Term. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall terminate automatically on and as of the expiration date of
the Term (whether that is at the end of the Original Term or any Renewal Period), unless the parties shall have executed a written
agreement of renewal as contemplated in Section 4 hereof.

 

(h)          Survival.
Upon expiration or any termination of Executive’s employment with Employer pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section
6, this Agreement also shall terminate; provided, however, that the following shall survive and remain in full force
and effect after the expiration or any termination of this Agreement: (i) the respective representations and warranties of
each party contained in this Agreement, which shall continue in effect throughout the Term, and (ii) the respective rights,
obligations and covenants and agreements of the parties contained in Sections 7 (entitled "Compensation Upon Termination"),

(entitled "Miscellaneous") hereof.

7.          Compensation Upon Termination.

 

(a)          Termination
Generally. If Executive’s employment with Employer expires or is terminated (whether by Employer or Executive) for any
reason during the Term, Employer shall pay or provide to Executive (or to his/her authorized representative or estate): (i) any
unpaid Base Annual Salary earned through the date of such termination; (ii) any unpaid incentive compensation that is deemed
earned and has become payable under the terms of any incentive compensation program in which Executive was participating at the
time of or had participated prior to such expiration or termination of employment; (iii) unpaid expense reimbursements; (iv)
accrued but unused vacation, and (v) any vested benefits Executive may have earned under any employee benefit plan of Employer
or Parent prior to the expiration or termination of Executive’s employment; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 7(a), if Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause pursuant to Section 6(a) above or pursuant
to Section 6(f), due to certain Regulatory Actions, then, unless otherwise required by applicable law, Executive shall not be entitled
to receive any unpaid incentive compensation that might otherwise have been due to Executive.

 

(b)          Termination
by the Employer Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment
by Employer without Cause pursuant to Section 6(b) above, or by Executive for Good Reason pursuant to Section 6(c) above,
then subject to Executive’s execution and delivery of an agreement, that is satisfactory in a form and substance to Employer,
releasing any and all legal claims (known or unknown) Executive may have against Employer or any or its Affiliates, Employer shall
provide to Executive the following termination benefits (“Termination Benefits”):

 

(i)          A
severance payment (the “Severance Payment”) in an amount equal to (x) months of Executive’s Base Annual Salary
or (y) the aggregate Base Annual Salary that would have been paid to Executive for the remainder of the Term of the Agreement if
such remaining Term is shorter than the aforementioned month period, as the case may be (the “Termination Benefits Period”);
and

 

(ii)         continuation
during the Termination Benefits Period of group health plan benefits to the extent authorized by and consistent with 29 U.S.C.
§ 1161 et seq. (commonly known as “COBRA”), subject to payment of premiums by Executive at the active employee’s
rate (the Health Insurance Cost Sharing Benefit”). 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 7(b) or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (A) the Severance Payment and the Health Insurance
Cost Sharing Benefit that would otherwise be payable to Executive pursuant to this Section 7(b) shall be reduced by the amount
of any severance compensation or health insurance benefits that are due or are otherwise paid to Executive under any separate severance
compensation or change in control or similar agreement between Executive, on the one hand, and Employer or Employer's Parent, on
the other hand, or any severance pay or stay bonus plan of Employer or Parent (irrespective of when such agreement is entered into
or such plan becomes effective); (B) if Executive commences any employment with another employer during the Termination Benefits
Period and that other employer offers group health plan or health insurance benefits reasonably comparable to those available from
Employer, then, the Health Insurance Cost Sharing Benefit provided under paragraph 7(b)(ii) above shall cease to be payable as
of the date of commencement of such employment; and (C) nothing in this Section 7(b) shall be construed to affect Executive's right
to receive COBRA continuation entirely at Executive's own cost to the extent that Executive may continue to be entitled to COBRA
continuation after the Executive's Health Insurance Cost Sharing Benefit under this Section 7(b)(ii) ceases. Executive shall be
obligated to give prompt notice of the date of commencement of any employment during the Termination Benefits Period and shall
respond promptly to any reasonable inquiries concerning any employment in which Executive may be engaged during the Termination
Benefits Period. The Termination Benefits shall be paid by Employer in installments in accordance with the customary payroll practices
of Employer (net of required deductions and withholdings).

(c)          Termination
Upon Death. In the event of a termination of Executive’s employment due to death, Employer shall pay to Executive’s
estate an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s Base Annual Salary at the rate in effect immediately
prior to such termination (the "Death Benefit"), less the amount of any life insurance benefits which Executive's estate
or any of Executive's beneficiaries receive under any Employer-provided life insurance plan or program in which Executive was participating
at the time of his/her death. Any Death Benefit payable pursuant to this Section 7(c) shall be paid in a lump sum payment (net
of any tax and any other required withholdings) to the beneficiary designated in writing by Executive, or if no beneficiary was
designated, to his/her estate, as soon as is practicable following Executive’s death.

 

(d)          Exclusivity
of Termination Benefits. Except as may otherwise be set forth in Exhibit A hereto, Executive shall not be entitled
to any payments or benefits due to the expiration or termination of Executive’s employment with Employer other than those
benefits that are expressly provided for in this Section 7. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Termination Benefits
set forth in Section 7(b), together with any severance benefits that Executive may be entitled to receive under any separate severance
compensation or change of control or stay-pay agreement to which executive may be a party or any separate severance or stay pay
plan in which Executive may be a participant, shall constitute the exclusive rights and remedies against Employer and its Affiliates
to which Executive shall be entitled by reason of termination or Executive’s employment by Employer without Cause or by Executive
for Good Reason or for any damages arising therefrom. 

 

8.          Protective
Covenants. 

 

(a)          Certain
Definitions.

 

(i)          Confidential
Information. As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information belonging to Employer
or any of its Affiliates which is of value to Employer or any such Affiliates in the course of conducting any of their respective
businesses and the disclosure of which could result in a competitive or other disadvantage to Employer or any such Affiliates.
Confidential Information includes, without limitation, financial information, including financial statements and projections, business
and expansion or growth plans, reports, and forecasts; inventions, improvements and other intellectual property; trade secrets;
know-how; designs, processes or formulae; software; market or sales information or plans; customer lists and information regarding,
or supplied to Employer or any of its Affiliates by, any of their respective existing or prospective customers; supplier lists
and information about, or provided to Employer or any of its Affiliates by, any of their respective suppliers, vendors or consultants;
information regarding the capabilities, duties or compensation of employees of Employer or of any its Affiliates; and information
regarding the business prospects and opportunities of Employer or any of its Affiliates (such as possible acquisitions or dispositions
of businesses or facilities). Confidential Information also includes information developed by Executive in the course of Executive’s
employment by Employer, as well as other information to which the Executive may have access in connection with Executive’s
employment, and the confidential information of others with which Employer has a business relationship. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Confidential Information does not include information in the public domain, unless such information entered the public domain as
a result of a breach of any of Executive’s covenants under Section 8(b). Executive acknowledges and agrees that Employer
has a legitimate business interest in protecting the Confidential Information.

  

    	7

    	 

    

 

(ii)         Competing Business. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competing Business” shall mean a business
conducted anywhere within [the counties of Orange, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Riverside, in the state of California]
which is located within forty (40) miles of any office or facility used by Employer or any of its Affiliates which is competitive
with any business which Employer or any of its Affiliates conducts or proposes to conduct at any time during Executive’s
employment with Employer or any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, the commercial banking business and the investment
advisory services business.

 

(b)          Confidentiality.

 

(i)          Executive
understands and agrees that Executive’s employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust between Executive and Employer,
including with respect to all Confidential Information, whether such Confidential Information exists on the Employment Commencement
Date or is created, developed or acquired or comes into being at any time during the term of this Agreement. Executive covenants
and agrees that, at all times (both during Executive’s employment with Employer and after its expiration or termination for
any reason), Executive will keep all Confidential Information in strict confidence and trust and will not disclose any of the Confidential
Information to any Person, and Executive covenants and agrees that he will not use any of the Confidential Information for Executive’s
benefit or the benefit of any Person other than Employer and Parent and their Affiliates.

 

(ii)         In
the event that Executive is requested or required (including by means of deposition, interrogatories, requests for information
or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or by a tribunal, court or regulatory
agency, having applicable jurisdiction, to disclose any of the Confidential Information, Executive shall, unless prohibited by
law or regulation, provide Employer with prompt written notice of any such request or requirement so that Employer may seek a protective
order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8(b) with respect to such requested
or required Confidential Information. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy acceptable to Employer or the receipt
of a waiver from Employer, Executive is nonetheless legally required to disclose such Confidential Information to any tribunal,
court or government agency to avoid being held liable for contempt or suffering other censure or penalty, Executive may, without
thereby violating this Section 8(b) or incurring any liability to Employer hereunder, disclose only that portion of the Confidential
Information that Executive is legally required to disclose. In any case, Executive shall cooperate with Employer in any efforts
it may undertake to preserve the confidentiality of such Confidential Information, including, without limitation, by cooperating
with Employer’s efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment
will be accorded the Confidential Information.”

 

(c)          Documents,
Records, etc. All documents, records, data, apparatus, equipment and other physical property, including cell phones and computers,
and whether or not pertaining to Confidential Information, which are furnished to Executive by Employer or which are produced by
Executive in connection with Executive’s employment, will be and remain the sole property of Employer. Executive will return
to Employer all such materials and property as and when requested by Employer or if no request therefor has theretofore been made,
then, immediately upon the expiration or termination of Executive’s employment with Employer for any reason whatsoever. Executive
covenants and agrees that he/she will not retain any such materials or property or any copies thereof after any such expiration
or termination of his/her employment with Employer.

Affiliates or induce or influence any such employee to leave the employ of Employer, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates.

Covenant. Executive acknowledges that in connection with and in the course of his/her employment with Employer, Executive will
have access to trade secrets and other Confidential Information of Employer, Parent and their respective Affiliates, which Confidential

Affiliates. Accordingly, Executive covenants and agrees that during the Term of his/her employment with Employer and for a period
of eighteen (18) months following the termination, for any reason whatsoever, of his/her employment with Employer (including
any voluntary termination or any termination for Good Reason by Executive or any termination by Employer with or without Cause),
Executive shall not use any information that constitutes a trade secret or Confidential Information of Employer, Parent or any
of their Affiliates to directly or indirectly, personally or through others, (i) solicit for or on behalf of any Person competing
against Employer or its Affiliates, any existing or prospective client or customer of Employer, Parent or any of their Affiliates,
or (ii) encourage or induce any client, customer, supplier or vendor of or service provider to Employer, Parent or any of
their Affiliates to terminate or modify (in a manner adverse to any of them) the business relationship that any such client, customer,
supplier, vendor or service provider has with any of them.

and their respective Affiliates in their trade secrets and other Confidential Information and established client, customer, supplier,
vendor, employee and consultant relationships and the goodwill established by Employer, Parent or such Affiliates with or among
their respective clients, customers, suppliers, vendors, employees and consultants, (ii) acknowledges and agrees that this
Section 8 imposes no greater restraint or restriction on Executive than is reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate
business interests of Employer, Parent and their Affiliates, and such restrictions are reasonable and appropriate for this purpose
and will not adversely affect Executive’s ability, following a termination of his/her employment with Employer, to earn a
livelihood from his/her chosen profession, and (iii) acknowledges that the consideration received by him pursuant to this
Agreement is good, valuable and adequate consideration in exchange for his/her covenants and agreements contained in this Section 8.

 

(i)          Severability.
If any of the definitions contained in Section 8(a) or any of the covenants or agreements of Executive contained in Subsections
8(b), 8(c), 8(d), 8(e), or 8(f) above or in Subsections 8(j) or 8(k) below (collectively, the “Protective Covenants”)
is held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or unreasonable as to time, geographic coverage, or business
limitation, Executive and Employer agree that in any such instance that particular definition or that particular Protective Covenant,
as the case may be (the “Offending Provision”) shall be reformed to the maximum time, geographic area or business limitation
(as the case may be) that will permit it to be enforced under applicable law. The parties further agree that, in any such event,
all of the remaining definitions and Protective Covenants shall be severable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall be
enforceable independently of each other and a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction that any definition or Protective Covenant
is unenforceable or unreasonable to any extent shall not affect or impair the continued validity or enforceability of the other
definitions or Protective Covenants contained in this Section 8

 

(j)          Third
Party Agreements and Rights. Executive hereby represents and warrants that he is not bound by the terms of any contract or
other agreement (written or oral) with any previous employer or other Person which restricts in any way Executive’s use or
disclosure of information or Executive’s engagement in any business. Executive further represents and warrants to Employer
that Executive’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, Executive’s employment with Employer and the performance
of Executive’s duties for Employer pursuant to this Agreement will not violate any obligations, contractual or other, that
Executive may have to any such previous employer or other Person. In Executive’s work for Employer, Executive will not disclose
or make use of any information in violation of any contracts or other agreements (written or oral) with or the rights of any such
previous employer or other Person, and Executive will not bring to the premises of Employer any copies or other tangible embodiments
of non public information belonging to or obtained from any such previous employer or other Person.

(k)          Litigation
and Regulatory Cooperation. During and after the Term of this Agreement, Executive shall cooperate fully with Employer, Parent
and their Affiliates in the prosecution or defense of any claims or actions or other proceedings which has been or may be brought
on behalf of or against Employer, Parent or any of their Affiliates which relate to events or occurrences that transpired while
Executive was employed by Employer. Executive’s full cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include,
but shall not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on
behalf of Employer, Parent or any of their Affiliates at mutually convenient times. During and after the Term of this Agreement,
Executive also shall cooperate fully with Employer, Parent and their Affiliates in connection with any examination, investigation
or review by any federal, state or local regulatory authority which covers any period, or relates to events or occurrences that
transpired, while Executive was employed by Employer. Executive acknowledges that the performance by him of the covenants and duties
set forth in this Section 8(k) during the term of this Agreement are part of his/her duties under this Agreement and that
he shall not be entitled to any compensation therefor that is separate from or in addition to his/her compensation under this Agreement.
If Executive performs any of the duties as required by this Section 8(k) after the Term of this Agreement, as Executive’s
compensation therefor, Employer shall reimburse Executive for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
the performance by Executive of his/her duties under this Section 8(k).

 

(l)          Equitable
Remedies. Executive acknowledges and agrees that it would be difficult to measure the damages that Employer will sustain as
a result of any breach by Executive of any of the Protective Covenants or any of the other agreements of Executive contained in
this Section 8 and that monetary damages, in and of themselves, would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach. Accordingly,
Executive agrees that if he/she breaches, or threatens to breach, any of the Protective Covenants or any of the other agreements
of Executive contained in this Section 8, Employer shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights or remedies that it
may have under this Agreement or under applicable law, to bring an equitable proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction
and, in any such proceeding, to be awarded (i) temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to require Executive
to halt any such breach, or to refrain from committing any threatened breach (as the case may be), of any of such Protective Covenants
or other agreements, and (ii) such other appropriate equitable remedies to require Executive to comply with such Protective
Covenants and other agreements, without having to show or prove any actual monetary damages to Employer. Employer shall not be
required to post a bond or monetary or other security as a condition to the issuance or continuation of any such injunctive relief
or the granting or continuance of such other equitable remedies provided for in this Section 8(l).”

 

9.          Arbitration
of Disputes. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8(i) above and the last sentence of this Section 9 with respect to equitable
proceedings and remedies, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the performance or non-performance
(actual or alleged) by either party of any of such party's respective obligations hereunder or any actual or alleged breach thereof,
or otherwise arising out of the Executive’s employment or the termination of that employment (including, without limitation,
any claims of unlawful employment discrimination whether based on age or otherwise) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration in any forum and form agreed upon by the parties or, in the absence of such an agreement,
under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in Orange County, California in accordance with
the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the AAA, including, but not limited to, the rules and procedures applicable to the selection
of arbitrators. In the event that any Person other than Executive or Employer may be a party with regard to any such controversy
or claim, such controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration subject to such other Person’s agreement thereto. Judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitrator in any such arbitration proceeding may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
This Section 9 shall be specifically enforceable. The reasonable fees and disbursements of the prevailing party's legal counsel,
accountants and experts incurred in connection with any such arbitration proceeding shall be paid by the non-prevailing party in
such arbitration proceeding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be contained in this Section 9, each party shall
be entitled to bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of obtaining a temporary restraining order
or a preliminary or permanent injunction or other equitable remedies in circumstances in which such relief is appropriate.

CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE COMPENSATION
AGREEMENT

 

This CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE COMPENSATION
AGREEMENT, dated as of September 17, 2007 (the “Agreement”), is made by and between KELLER FINANCIAL GROUP, a California
corporation (the “Company”) and Ulrich E. Keller, Jr. (the “Executive”), with reference to the following
facts and circumstances:

 

RECITALS:

 

A.           The
Company’s Board of Directors has determined that it is appropriate and in the Company’s best interests to reinforce
and encourage the continued attention and dedication of key members of the management of the Company and its material subsidiaries,
who include the Executive, to their assigned duties without distraction in potentially disturbing circumstances that would arise
in the event of a threatened or actual Change in Control (as hereinafter defined) of the Company or such subsidiaries and thereby
also provide the Company with greater assurance that it will be able to retain the key members of management, including Executive,
in the employ of the Company or a material subsidiary (as the case may be) in the event of any threatened or actual Change in Control;
and

 

B.           This
Agreement sets forth the severance compensation which the Company agrees it will pay, or cause the Subsidiary to pay, to Executive
if his/her employment with the Company or The Keller Group Investment Management, Inc. (the “Subsidiary”), as the case
may be, terminates under one of the circumstances described herein following a Change in Control of the Company or the Subsidiary.

 

C.           Executive
is employed as the Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of the Subsidiary under an Executive Employment Agreement of even date
herewith (the “Employment Agreement”). This Change of Control Severance Compensation Agreement sets forth the rights
and obligations of the Company and Executive in the event of a termination of Executive’s employment, for Good Reason (as
defined below), that is attributable to, or that occurs concurrently with or within 24 months following, a Change in Control. On
the other hand, the Employment Agreement, rather than this Agreement, governs and determines the severance compensation to which
Executive would be entitled upon any other termination of Executive’s employment.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, it
is agreed as follows:

 

1.            Definitions.
The following terms shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them below in this Section 1:

 

1.1           The
terms “affiliate” and “associate” shall have the respective meanings given to such terms
in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act (even if the Company has no securities registered under that Act).

 

1.2           The
terms “beneficial ownership,” “beneficially owned” and “beneficial owner”
shall have the meanings given to such terms in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (even if the Company has no securities registered
under that Act).

 

1.3           The
term “Exchange Act” shall mean the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

1.4           The
term “Parent” of a corporation or other entity means any person that is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly,
of a majority of the Voting Securities of that corporation or other entity.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

 

1.5         The
term “Voting Securities” of any person that is a corporation means the combined voting power of that person’s
then outstanding securities having the right to vote in an election of that person’s directors. The term “Voting Securities”
of any person, other than a corporation, such as a partnership or limited liability company, shall mean the combined voting power
of that person’s outstanding ownership interests that are entitled to vote or select the individuals (such as the managers
of a limited liability company) that have substantially the same authority or decision-making powers with respect to such person
that are generally exercisable by directors of a corporation.

 

1.6         The
term “Common Stock” of the Company shall mean the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001
per share, and any voting securities into which such shares may be converted or exchanged in any merger, consolidation, reorganization
or recapitalization of the Company.

 

1.7         The
term “person” shall have the meaning given to such term in Section 13(d) and Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act
(even if the Company has no securities registered under that Act) and, therefore, the term “person” shall include any
two or more persons acting together, whether as a partnership, limited partnership, joint venture, syndicate or other group, at
least one of the purposes of which is to acquire, hold or dispose of beneficial ownership of securities of the Company or the Subsidiary.
The term “person also shall include any natural person, any corporation, limited liability company, general or limited partnership,
joint venture, trust, estate, or unincorporated association.

 

1.8         The
term “Change in Control” of the Company shall mean the occurrence of any of the following:

 

(a)          Any
person who (together with all of such person’s affiliates and associates) shall, at any time become the beneficial owner,
directly or indirectly, of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Company’s Voting Securities Company, except (i) the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any trustee, fiduciary or other person or entity holding securities under any employee
benefit plan or trust of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or (iii) Ulrich E. Keller, Jr. (collectively, the Exempt Owners”);
or

 

(b)          There
shall be consummated any consolidation, merger, or reorganization (as such term is defined in the California Corporations Code),
of the Company with or into another person, or of another person with or into the Company, in which the holders of the Company’s
outstanding Voting Securities immediately prior to the consummation of such consolidation, merger or reorganization would not,
immediately after such consummation, own beneficially, directly or indirectly, (in the aggregate) at least sixty percent (60%)
of the Voting Securities of (i) the continuing or surviving person in such merger, consolidation or reorganization (whether
or not that is the Company) or (ii) the ultimate Parent, if any, of that continuing or surviving person; or

 

(c)          There
shall be consummated any consolidation, merger or reorganization of the Subsidiary with or into another person, or of another person
with or into the Subsidiary, unless the persons that were the holders of the Company’s Voting Securities immediately prior
to such consummation would have, immediately after such consolidation, merger or reorganization, substantially the same proportionate
direct or indirect beneficial ownership of at least sixty (60%) of the Voting Securities of (i) the continuing or surviving
person in such consolidation, merger or reorganization (whether or not that is the Subsidiary) or, (ii) the ultimate Parent, if
any, of that continuing or surviving person; or

 

(d)          There
shall be consummated any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions contemplated or
arranged by any party as a single plan) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or of the Subsidiary; or

  

    	2

    	 

    

 

(e)          The
holders of the Voting Securities of the Company approve any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company,
unless the plan of liquidation provides for all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to be transferred to a person
in which the holders of the Company’s Voting Securities immediately prior to such liquidation have or will have, immediately
after such liquidation, substantially the same proportionate direct or indirect beneficial ownership of at least sixty percent
(60%) of the Voting Securities of such person; or

 

(f)          During
any period of two (2) consecutive years during the term of this Agreement, individuals who at the beginning of that two year period
constituted the entire Board of Directors do not, for any reason, constitute a majority thereof, unless the election (or the nomination
for election) by the holders of the Company’s Voting Securities, of each director who was not a member of the Board of Directors
at the beginning of that two year period was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who
were directors at the beginning of the two year period.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a "Change
in Control" shall not be deemed to have occurred within the meaning of Paragraph 1.8(a) above solely as the result of any
acquisition of Voting Securities by the Company or any subsidiary thereof that has the effect of (i) reducing the number of
the Company’s outstanding Voting Securities, or (ii) increasing the beneficial ownership of the Company’s Voting
Securities by any person to more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Company’s outstanding Voting Securities or by any
Pre-September 1, 2007 Shareholder; provided, however, that, if any such person (other than any of the Exempt Owners,
as defined above) shall thereafter become the direct or indirect beneficial owner of any additional Voting Securities of the Company
(other than pursuant to a stock split, stock dividend, or similar transaction or as a result of an acquisition of securities directly
from the Company) and immediately thereafter beneficially owns more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the then outstanding Voting
Securities of the Company, then, a "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement.

 

1.9         The
term “Employer” means whichever of the Company or Subsidiary is the principal employer of Executive.

 

1.10       The
term “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any successor statute thereto.

 

2.          Term.
The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 6 hereof,
shall end three (3) years following the date on which notice of non-renewal or termination of this Agreement is given by either
the Company or Executive to the other. Thus, this Agreement shall renew automatically on a daily basis so that the outstanding
term is always three (3) years following any effective notice of non-renewal or of termination given by the Company or Executive,
other than in the event of a termination pursuant to Section 6 hereof.

 

3.          Change
in Control. No compensation shall be payable under this Agreement unless and until (i) there has been a Change in Control
of the Company (as hereinafter defined) while the Executive is still an officer of the Company or the Subsidiary, and (ii) the
Executive’s employment by the Company or the Subsidiary terminates under any of the circumstances or for any of the reasons
set forth in Section 4 below.

 

4.          Termination
by Executive for Good Reason. If (i) a Change in Control of the Company occurs while the Executive is still employed as
an officer of the Company or the Subsidiary or the surviving or continuing person in any such Change in Control, and (ii) any
of the following events (each a “Good Reason Event”) shall occur (that is not consented to by Executive) as
a result or at the time or within 12 months of the consummation of such Change in Control, then, Executive shall be entitled to
the compensation provided in Section 5 of this Agreement, provided that he gives the Company written notice of the termination
of his/her employment and of all positions he/she may have with the Company and the Subsidiary for “Good Reason” within
forty-five (45) days following the occurrence of any such Good Reason Event.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

4.1           Reduction
or Adverse Change of Responsibilities, Authority, Etc. The scope of Executive’s authority or responsibilities is significantly
reduced or diminished or there is an change in Executive’s position or title as an officer of the Company or the Subsidiary,
or both, that constitutes or would generally be considered to constitute a demotion of Executive, unless such reduction, diminution
or change is made as a consequence of (i) Executive’ disability (determined as provided in Section 6(e) of the Employment
Agreement), or (ii)  any acts or omissions of Executive which would entitle the Company or Subsidiary to terminate Executive’s
employment for Cause (as defined in Section 6(a) of the Employment Agreement); or

 

4.2           Reduction
in Base Salary. Executive's Base Annual Salary (as defined in his Employment Agreement and as in effect immediately prior to
the consummation of the Change in Control) is reduced, unless such reduction is made (i) as part of an across-the-board cost
cutting measure that is applied equally or proportionately to all senior executives of the Employer, or (ii) as a result of
Executive’s Disability (determined as provided in Section 6(e) of the Employment Agreement), or any acts or omissions of
Executive which would entitle Employer to terminate Executive’s employment for Cause (as defined in Section 6(a) of the Employment
Agreement);

 

4.3           Discontinuance
or Reduction of Bonus Opportunity Under Bonus Compensation Plan. Executive's bonus and/or incentive compensation award opportunity

the Change of Control is discontinued or significantly reduced, unless such discontinuance or reduction (i) is expressly permitted
under the terms of such plan or program, or (ii) is a result of a policy of Employer applied equally or proportionately to
all senior executives of Employer participating in such plan or program, or (iii) is the result of the replacement of such
plan or program with another bonus or incentive compensation plan in which Executive is afforded substantially comparable bonus
or incentive compensation opportunities;

 

4.4           Discontinuance
of Participation in Employee Benefit Plans. Executive's participation in any other benefit plan maintained by the Company or
Employer in which Executive was participating immediately prior to the consummation of the Change of Control (including any vacation

discontinuance or reduction (as the case may be) is (i) expressly permitted by the terms of that plan or program, or (ii) due
to a change in applicable law or the loss or reduction in the tax deductibility to Employer of the contributions to or payments
made under such plan, or (iii) the result of a policy of Employer or the Company that is applied equally or proportionately
to all senior executives participating in such benefit plan, or (iv) the result of the adoption of one or more other benefit
plans providing reasonably comparable benefits (in terms of value) to Executive; or

 

4.5           Relocation.

of Agreements. A breach by the Company or Employer of any of its material obligations to Executive under the Employment Agreement
or this Agreement which continues uncured for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Executive.

 

5.          Severance
Compensation upon Termination of Employment for Good Reason. Subject to Section 5.4 and Section 7 below, upon a termination
of Executive’s employment by Executive pursuant to Section 4 hereof (a “Good Reason Termination”), then:

 

5.1           Change
of Control Severance Compensation. Subject to Section 5.4 below, in lieu of any further salary and bonus payments or other
payments that would otherwise be due to Executive under the Employment Agreement, or otherwise, for periods subsequent to the date
of such Good Reason Termination, Executive shall become entitled to receive the following severance compensation and benefits:

 

(a)          Employer
shall pay the Executive all amounts owed through the date of Executive’s Good Reason Termination; and

 

(b)          Employer
also shall pay to Executive, at the applicable time set forth in Section 5.3, an amount equal to the product of two (2) times the
sum of (i) Executive’s Base Annual Salary in effect as of the date of termination and (ii) an amount equal to the
Maximum Bonus Award (as hereinafter defined) payable to Executive under any incentive or bonus compensation plan in which he/she
was participating at the time of such termination of employment, which amount shall be paid as provided in Section 5.3 hereof.
For purposes hereof, the term “Maximum Bonus Award” shall mean the amount of the bonus compensation that would
be paid to Executive under such incentive or bonus compensation plan assuming that all performance goals or targets required to
have been achieved as a condition of the payment of the maximum bonus under such plan were achieved and all other conditions precedent
to the payment of such bonus compensation were satisfied.

 

(c)          All
options to purchase stock of the Company granted to the Executive that had not vested as of the date of such Good Reason Termination
shall vest effective immediately prior to such termination.

 

(d)          All
restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, and other forms of equity-based compensation awards granted to the Executive,
which had not vested as of the date of such Good Reason Termination, shall vest effective immediately prior to such termination.

 

(e)            The
Company or the Subsidiary shall maintain in full force and effect, during the period commencing on the date of such Good Reason
Termination and ending on the December 31 of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which such termination occurred
(the “Benefit Continuation Period”), all employee medical, dental and vision plans and programs, disability
plans and programs and all life insurance programs in which the Executive and/or his/her family members were entitled to participate
or under which they were entitled to receive benefits immediately prior to the date of the occurrence of the Good Reason Event,
provided, however, that if such continued participation is prohibited under the general terms and provisions of such
plans and programs, then, the Company or the Subsidiary shall, at its expense, arrange for substantially equivalent benefits to
be provided to Executive and/or his/her family members during the Benefit Continuation Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
there shall only be included as benefits to which Executive and/or his/her family members shall be entitled under this Paragraph
5.1(e), and Executive and/or such family members shall only be entitled to, those benefits if the plans or programs in which Executive
or his/her family members were participating immediately prior to the occurrence of the Good Reason Event were exempt from the
term “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” under Section 409A of the Code.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

Notwithstanding any other provision in
this Agreement to the contrary, under no circumstances, shall the Executive be permitted to exercise any discretion to modify the
vesting of an award or the amount, timing or form of payment or benefit described in this Section 5.1.

 

5.2         Timing
and Manner of Payment. The amount that becomes payable to Executive pursuant to Section 5.1(b) above shall be paid as follows:

 

(a)          If,
on the date that the Executive terminates his/her employment for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4 above, the Company is a reporting
company under the Exchange Act, then Executive will be entitled to receive such payment in a single lump sum on the first business
day that occurs at the end of the period commencing on the date of that termination and ending six months after the last day of
the calendar month in which the date of termination occurred (e.g., if Executive were to terminate his/her employment for Good
Reason on March 15, 2008, for example, then Employer would be required to pay the amount specified in Section 5.1(b) on the first
business day immediately following September 30, 2008); or

 

(b)          If,
however, the Company is not a reporting company under the Exchange Act at the time the Executive terminates his/her employment
for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4 above, then Executive shall be entitled to receive such payment in a single lump sum on the
fifth (5th) business day following such termination of employment.

 

5.3         No
Requirement of Mitigation. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or benefit provided for
in this Section 5 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall any compensation or other payments received by the Executive
from other persons after the date of termination reduce any payments due under this Section 5.

 

5.4         Limitation.

 

(a)          Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if any compensation, payment, benefit or distribution by the Company or Employer
Subsidiary to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement or otherwise (collectively, the "Severance Payments"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Code, then, the following provisions shall apply:

 

(i)          If
the Threshold Amount (as hereinafter defined) is less than (x) the Severance Payments, but greater than (y) the Severance
Payments reduced by the-sum of (A) the Excise Tax (as defined below) and (B) the total of the Federal, state, and local
income and employment taxes on the amount of the Severance Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount, then the Severance
Payments that would otherwise be payable under this Agreement shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the extent necessary so
that the maximum Severance Payments shall not exceed the Threshold Amount. To the extent that there is more than one method of
reducing the Severance Payments to bring them within the Threshold Amount, Executive shall determine which method shall be followed;
provided that if Executive fails to make such determination within 45 days after the Company has sent Executive written notice
of the need for such reduction, the Company may determine the amount of such reduction in its sole discretion.

 

(ii)         If,
however, the Severance Payments, reduced by the sum of (A) the Excise Tax and (B) the total of the Federal, state and
local income and employment taxes payable by Executive on the amount of the Severance Payments which are in excess of the Threshold
Amount, are greater than or equal to the Threshold Amount, there shall be no reduction in the Severance Payments to Executive pursuant
to Paragraph 5.4(a)(i) above.

  

    	6

    	 

    

 

(b)          For
the purposes of this Section 5.4, the term "Threshold Amount" shall mean three (3) times Executive's "base
amount" (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) less one dollar
($1.00); and the term "Excise Tax" shall mean the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, and any interest
or penalties incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax.

 

(c)          The
determination as to which of Paragraph 5.4(a)(i) or 5.4(a)(ii) shall apply to Executive shall be made by Vavrinek, Trine, Day &
Co., LLP, independent registered public accountants, or any other independent accounting firm selected by mutual agreement of the
Company and Executive (the "Accounting Firm"), which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by either
party. Such Accounting Firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive within 15 business
days of the date of Executive’s Good Reason Termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably requested
by the Company or Executive. For purposes of determining which of the alternative provisions of 5.4(a)(i) or 5.4(a)(ii) shall apply,
Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals
for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates
of individual taxation in the state and locality of Executive's residence on the Termination Date, net of the maximum reduction
in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. Any determination by the Accounting
Firm shall be binding on the Company and Executive.

 

5.5           Withholding.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be contained elsewhere in this Agreement, all payments made to Executive under
this Agreement shall be made net of all taxes and other amounts required to be withheld from the wages or salary of employees under
applicable federal, state or local laws or regulations.

 

6.            Termination
of Agreement. Notwithstanding Section 2 hereof, this Agreement shall terminate sooner as provided in this Section 6.

 

6.1           Termination
of Employment Other Than for Good Reason. This Agreement shall terminate upon the happening, at any time prior to the termination
of Executive’s employment for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4 hereof, of any of the following events:

 

(a)          Executive’s
Disability or Death. This Agreement shall terminate upon the termination of Executive’s employment as a result of Executive’s
disability pursuant to and in accordance with Section 6(e) of the Employment Agreement. This Agreement also shall terminate immediately
in the event of the death of the Executive.

 

(b)          Retirement.
This Agreement shall terminate automatically on Retirement (as hereinafter defined) of Executive. The term “Retirement”
as used in this Agreement shall mean termination by the Company or the Executive of Executive’s employment based on the Executive’s
having reached age 75 or such other age as shall have been fixed in any arrangement established with the Executive’s consent
with respect to Executive retirement.

 

(c)          Cause.
This Agreement shall terminate, if Executive’s employment with the Company or an Employer Subsidiary is terminated for Cause,
as such term is defined in Section 6(a) of the Employment Agreement.

 

(d)          Termination
by Executive without Cause. This Agreement shall terminate upon any voluntary termination by Executive of his/her employment
with the Company or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, other than pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

In the event of a termination of this Agreement
pursuant to this Section 6.1, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be contained elsewhere herein, except for
any severance or other compensation to which Executive may be entitled, by reason of such termination, under the Employment Agreement,
neither the Company nor the Subsidiary shall have any liability to Executive, or Executive’s estate, heirs, successors, representatives
or assigns, due to such termination of this Agreement or by reason of any prior or subsequent Change in Control of the Company.

 

6.2           Effect
of Good Reason Termination on Term of this Agreement. In the event of a Good Reason Termination pursuant to Section 4 hereof,
Executive shall have no further rights or remedies under this Agreement, except his/her right to receive the severance compensation
set forth in Section 5 hereof attributable to the occurrence of the Good Reason Event that entitled Executive to terminate his/her
employment pursuant to Section 4 hereof. Accordingly, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive shall be
entitled to receive any compensation under this Agreement in the event of the occurrence of a second Change in Control of the Company
after the date of the Executive’s Good Reason Termination.

 

7.          Release
of Claims. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall constitute the only obligations of the Company arising
from a Good Reason Termination by Executive pursuant to Section 4 hereof. Additionally, upon any such termination, except for Executive’s
rights and the obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary (as the case may be) under Section 5 hereof, none of the Company, the
Subsidiary or any of their affiliates shall have any obligation or liability of any kind or nature whatsoever to Executive by reason
of or arising out of his/her employment with the Company or the Subsidiary or the termination thereof. Executive further agrees
that, except for his/her rights and the obligations of the Company or the Subsidiary (as the case may be) under Section 5 hereof,
all demands, claims and causes of action that Executive may have against, and any and all rights that Executive may have to recover
any payments, damages, liabilities or other amounts of any kind or nature whatsoever from, the Company, the Subsidiary or any of
their affiliates , or any of their respective, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents or independent contractors
(the “Company Related Parties”), shall be forever released by Executive as a condition precedent to Executive’s
rights to receive and the obligations of the Company or Subsidiary (as the case may be) to pay or provide to Executive the severance
compensation and benefits provided for in Section 5 hereof, irrespective of whether or not such demands, claims, causes of action
or rights arise or have arisen under (i) this Agreement, the Employment Agreement, or any other contract, agreement or understanding,
written or oral, between Executive and the Company or any of the Company Related Parties, or (ii) any employee or executive
benefit plans or programs, including any stock incentive or stock based compensation plans, or (iii) any federal, state or local
statutes or government regulations, or otherwise, and whether or not such demands, claims, causes of action or rights are known
or unknown, certain or uncertain, or suspected or unsuspected by Executive. Executive further covenants and agrees that such condition
precedent shall not be satisfied unless and until he/she executes and delivers to the Company all appropriate written agreements
reflecting such settlement and complete release in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company.

 

9.          Arbitration
of Disputes. Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Section 9 with respect to equitable proceedings
and remedies, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the performance or non-performance (actual
or alleged) by either party of any of such party's respective obligations hereunder or any actual or alleged breach thereof, shall,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration in any forum and form agreed upon by the
parties or, in the absence of such an agreement, under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”)
in Orange County, California in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the AAA, including, but not limited
to, the rules and procedures applicable to the selection of arbitrators. In the event that any person, other than Executive or
the Company, may be a party with regard to any such controversy or claim, such controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration
subject to such other person’s agreement thereto. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator in any such arbitration
proceeding may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This Section 9 shall be specifically enforceable. The
reasonable fees and disbursements of the prevailing party's legal counsel, accountants and experts incurred in connection with
any such arbitration proceeding shall be paid by the non-prevailing party in such arbitration proceeding. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary that may be contained in this Section 9, however, each party shall be entitled to bring an action in any court
of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of obtaining a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction or
other equitable remedies in circumstances in which such relief is appropriate.

10.2         Assignment;
Successors and Assigns, etc. Neither party may make any assignment, in whole or in part, of this Agreement or any interest

of the other party; except that in the event of a Change in Control of the Company, the rights and obligations of the Company under
this Agreement may be assigned to the successor-in-interest of the Company in such Change in Control without the consent of Executive,
provided that (i) such successor-in-interest enters into a written agreement, in a form reasonably acceptable to Executive,

shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent
