commencement of trading in the Company’s shares on Nasdaq, provided that any such shares will in no event be granted before the second day of trading in the Company’s shares on Nasdaq. 

The Initial Grant will be calculated by dividing $200,000 by the average daily closing price of the Company’s common stock on the
securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed for the ten business days ending on the day following the initial listing date, rounding down to the nearest whole share. 

The Initial Grant upon shareholder approval shall vest in equal installments with 50% of the Initial Grant vesting at the first annual general

	(b)	 You acknowledge that all materials that are or which may come into your possession during your Appointment
relating to the nature, operation or activities of the Company remain the Company’s property. You shall not either during the period of your Appointment or afterwards use or permit to be used any books, documents, moneys, assets, records or
other property belonging to or relating to any dealings, affair or business of the Company or its affiliates other than for the benefit of the Company. You shall immediately deliver and return to the Company all such books, documents, moneys,
securities, records or other property which you then have or should have in your possession upon termination of your Appointment hereunder.
