least three (3) Business Days before the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its good
faith estimate of Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), Closing Indebtedness (“Estimated
Closing Indebtedness”), Closing Transaction Expenses (“Estimated Closing Transaction Expenses”), which statement

prior to the Closing Date (without giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein) and a calculation of Estimated Closing Working
Capital, Estimated Closing Indebtedness and Estimated Closing Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Closing Statement”).
The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied using the same accounting methods, practices, principles,
policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation
of the illustrative calculation of working capital as of September 30, 2021, attached hereto as Exhibit C. The Company
shall provide Buyer and its representatives with reasonable access to the books and records of the Company and shall cause the personnel
of the Company to reasonably cooperate with Buyer and its representatives for the purpose of enabling Buyer to review the Company’s
determination of all amounts and estimates in the Estimated Closing Statement and each component thereof, and such amounts shall be adjusted
in response to any reasonable comments of Buyer provided prior to the Closing.

 

(ii)          The
 “Estimated Closing Working Capital Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Estimated Closing Working Capital minus
the Target Working Capital.

 

(b)      Post-Closing
Adjustment.

 

(i)           Within
ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a statement setting forth its calculation of
Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, which statement shall contain a balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (without
giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein) and a calculation of Closing Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness and Closing
Transaction Expenses, and the resulting Post-Closing Adjustment, if any (the “Closing Statement”). The Closing Statement
shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied using the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with
consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the Example Statement
of Working Capital and Estimated Closing Working Capital.

 

(ii)          The
Sellers shall provide the Buyer with such assistance and such information as the Buyer may reasonably request or require in connection
with the preparation of the Closing Statement.

 

(iii)         The
 “Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital (as finally determined
in accordance with Section 2.05(b) and (c)) minus the Estimated Closing Working Capital.

 

(iv)         The
 “Final Closing Purchase Price” shall be an amount equal to the Purchase Price, plus (A) if the Final Closing
Working Capital Adjustment is a positive number, the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to (x) [***] divided by (y) [***]

    5

     

    

 

(c)       Examination
and Review.

 

(i)           Examination.
After receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, the Sellers shall have thirty (30) days (the “Review Period”)
to review the Closing Working Capital Statement.

 

(ii)          Objection.
On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, the Sellers may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to the
Buyer a written statement setting forth its objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed item or amount and the basis for
its disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If the Sellers fails to deliver the Statement of Objections
before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be,
reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Sellers. If the Sellers delivers the Statement
of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Buyer and the Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections
within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same
are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes
as may have been previously agreed in writing by the Buyer and the Sellers, shall be final and binding.

 

(iii)         Resolution
of Disputes. If the Sellers and the Buyer fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement
of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts”
and any amounts not so disputed, the “Undisputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of an impartial
internationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants appointed by mutual agreement (not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed) of the Buyer and the Sellers (the “Independent Accountant”) who, acting as experts and not
arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and
the Closing Working Capital Statement. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The
Independent Accountant shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must
be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.
The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by the Sellers, on the one hand, and by the Buyer, on the other hand,
based upon the percentage that the amount actually contested but not awarded to the Sellers or the Buyer, respectively, bears to the aggregate
amount actually contested by the Sellers and the Buyer. The Independent Accountant’s resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their
adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties
hereto.

 

(d)      Payment
of Post-Closing Adjustment.

 

(i)           If
the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number, the Buyer shall, within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of
the Post-Closing Adjustment, cause Buyer to issue to each Seller such Seller’s pro rata portion of the Post-Closing Adjustment.

 

(ii)          If
the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number, the Buyer shall, within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of
the Post-Closing Adjustment, cause Buyer to exercise its Clawback Right or Set-Off Right with respect to each Seller’s pro rata
portion of the Post-Closing Adjustment.

 

(e)       Adjustments
for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by
the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

 

Section 2.06     Earnouts.

 

(a)       Earnout
Amount.

 

(i)           For
[***] months following the Closing, in addition to the Purchase Price, as incentive compensation to the Earnout Holders, (i) the
Equity Earnout Holders shall be entitled to receive the Equity Earnout Shares (as defined below), and (ii) the Cash Earnout Holders
shall be entitled to receive the Cash Earnout Amount (as defined below), if any, in each case, in accordance with the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in this Section 2.06. If the Equity Earnout Shares and/or the Cash Earnout Amount are earned in
accordance with this Section 2.06, such Equity Earnout Shares and/or Cash Earnout Amount shall be issued or paid, as the case
may be, to the Earnout Holders in accordance with Section 2.06(d) below.

 

(ii)          At
the Closing, in addition to the Purchase Price, as incentive compensation to Hyungil Jeong, Hyungil Jeong shall receive the Restricted
Stock Earnout Shares (as defined below), as set out in Exhibit D (subject to any change thereto as set forth in Section 2.06(b)).
which shall be subject to potential future forfeiture upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 2.06.

 

    6

     

    

 

(b)       Earnout-Related
Definitions. For purposes of this Section 2.06:

 

(i)           “Equity
Earnout Shares” means an amount equal to [***] shares of Buyer Common Stock. In the event that the Company’s annualized,
one-year booking value from licensing the Company’s core software platform, but excluding (a) [***], (b) [***], and (c) [***]
(“ARR“), at the end of any given calendar month during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the
date that is [***] months immediately following the Closing Date (the “Earnout Period”), equals or exceeds [***] United
States Dollars (US$[***]) (the “Target ARR”), the Equity Earnout Shares will be issued to Equity Earnout Holders in
accordance with this paragraph and Section 2.06(d) below. With respect to each Equity Earnout Holder that is a Key Employee,
such Key Employee’s share of the Equity Earnout Shares that otherwise would be deemed due and issuable in accordance with this Section 2.06(b)(i),
if any, shall be issued in accordance with Section 2.06(d) only if such Key Employee is an active employee of the Company
in good standing on the date that such issuance would otherwise be required, unless such Key Employee is no longer an active employee
because such Key Employee has resigned for Good Reason or was terminated other than for Cause prior to the date that such issuance would
otherwise be required.

 

(ii)         “Cash
Earnout Amount“ means an amount equal to [***] United States Dollars ($[***]). In the event that the Company’s ARR at
the end of any given calendar month during the Earnout Period equals or exceeds the Target ARR, the Cash Earnout Amount shall be paid
to the Cash Earnout Holders in accordance with this paragraph and Section 2.06(d) below. For the avoidance of doubt,
each Cash Earnout Holder’s share of the Cash Earnout Amount that otherwise would be deemed due and payable in accordance with this
Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.06(d) only if such Cash Earnout Holder
is an active employee of the Company in good standing on the date that such payment becomes due and payable, unless such Cash Earnout
Holder is no longer an active employee because such Cash Earnout Holder has resigned for Good Reason or was terminated other than for
Cause prior to the date that such payment becomes due and payable.

 

(iii)         “Restricted
Stock Earnout Shares” means an amount equal to [***] shares of Buyer Common Stock. In the event that the Company’s ARR
at the end of any given calendar month during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is [***] years immediately
following the Closing Date (the “Restricted Stock Earnout Period”), does not equal or exceed [***] United States Dollars
(US$[***]) (the “Restricted Stock Target ARR”), the Restricted Stock Earnout Shares shall be forfeited by Hyungil Jeong.
Notwithstanding the above, the Restricted Stock Earnout Shares shall be subject to an additional vesting requirement such that, if Hyungil
Jeong is not an active employee of the Company in good standing at the end of the Restricted Stock Period, unless Hyungil Jeong is no
longer an active employee because Hyungil Jeong has resigned for Good Reason or was terminated other than for Cause prior to the end of
the Restricted Stock Period, Restricted Stock Earnout Shares shall be cancelled and extinguished for no consideration .

 

(iv)            For
purpose of calculating the Target ARR and the Restricted Stock Target ARR, the conversion rate to be used for the conversion of USD
to KRW shall be the Basic Exchange Rate for USD into
KRW, as published by Seoul Money Brokerage (http://www.smbs.biz/Eng/ExRate/TodayExRate.jsp)
for the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable payment date.

 

(c)       Earnout
Statements.

 

(i)           Not
later than sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Earnout Period, the Buyer or its Representatives shall prepare and deliver
to the Earnout Holders a written statement, prepared in accordance with GAAP, setting forth the Buyer’s calculation of the Company’s
ARR during the Earnout Period (the “Earnout Statement”), including without limitation the attribution of the Cash Earnout
Amount payable to each Cash Earnout Holder and the Equity Earnout Shares to be issued to each Equity Earnout Holder individually. Upon
receipt of an Earnout Statement, the Earnout Holders and/or their accountants will be given reasonable access upon reasonable notice to
Buyer to the Company’s relevant books, records, workpapers and personnel during normal business hours solely for the purpose of
verifying the Company’s ARR. Upon request of Buyer, the Earnout Holders and/or their accountants shall execute and deliver a confidentiality
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, prior to accessing the Company’s books, records, workpapers and/or
personnel.

 

    7

     

    

 

(ii)          Prior
to the date which is thirty (30) days after the Buyer’s delivery of an Earnout Statement (the “Earnout Protest
Deadline“), the Earnout Holders may deliver written notice to the Buyer (an “Earnout Protest Notice“) setting
forth any objections which the Earnout Holder may have to such Earnout Statement. The sole permissible grounds for objection shall be
that the Company’s ARR set forth on such Earnout Statement was not calculated in accordance with the definition set forth in Section 2.06(b)(i) or
where any calculation or accounting error has been identified in the computation of the same. An Earnout Protest Notice shall specify
in reasonable detail any contested amounts and the basis therefor and shall include a schedule setting forth the Seller’s determination
of the Company’s ARR. If an Earnout Protest Notice is not delivered prior to the Earnout Protest Deadline, the Company’s ARR
as set forth on such Earnout Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Earnout Holder. If an Earnout Protest Notice
is delivered prior to the Earnout Protest Deadline, any such amounts not disputed therein shall be final, binding and non-appealable by
the Earnout Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the beneficial interest that the Earnout Holder may have in the Cash Earnout
Amount and the Equity Earnout Shares, the Earnout Holders shall have the joint and several right to render an Earnout Protest Notice to
dispute the Earnout Statements.

 

(iii)         The
Buyer and the Earnout Holders shall confer and attempt to resolve any disagreement with respect to an Earnout Statement within thirty
(30) days following the Buyer’s receipt of an Earnout Protest Notice. If the Buyer and the Earnout Holders are unable to resolve
any such disagreement within such thirty (30) day period, then any matters that remain in dispute will be referred to the Independent
Accountant, which will be instructed to determine the amounts in dispute within forty-five (45) days after such referral. The determination
by the Independent Accountant of the amounts in dispute shall be based solely on presentations by the Buyer and the Earnout Holders, and
shall not involve the Independent Accountant’s independent review. Any determination by the Independent Accountant shall not be
outside the range defined by the respective amounts in such Earnout Statement proposed by the Buyer and the Earnout Holders’ proposed
adjustments thereto set forth in the Earnout Protest Notice, and absent manifest mathematical error such determination shall be final,
binding and non-appealable. Each of the Buyer and the Earnout Holders shall execute and deliver a customary engagement letter as may be
requested by the Independent Accountant, and each of the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Earnout Holders (jointly and severally) on the
other hand, shall bear that percentage of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant equal to the proportion (expressed as a
percentage and determined by the Independent Accountant) of the dollar value of the disputed amounts determined in favor of the other
party by the Independent Accountant.

 

(d)       Payment
of Earnout Amounts. No later than thirty (30) days following the date on which an Earnout Statement becomes final and binding
upon the parties in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.06 (each such date, an “Earnout Determination Date“),
(i) if the Equity Earnout Shares are earned in accordance with this Section 2.06, the Buyer shall issue the Equity Earnout
Shares to the Equity Earnout Holders, and (ii) if the Cash Earnout Amount is earned in accordance with this Section 2.06,
the Buyer shall pay the Cash Earnout Amount to the Cash Earnout Holders, in each case of clause (i) and (ii), in accordance with
each respective Earnout Holder’s distribution proportion as set out in Exhibit E (subject to any change thereto as set
forth in Section 2.06(b)).

 

(e)       Buyer
Control. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 2.06 shall restrict the Buyer’s right to
control the Company in any respect, including without limitation the hiring or termination of employees, consultants and contractors;
the non-exclusive licensing of Intellectual Property; the offering or ceasing to offer particular products or services; the incurrence
of expenses and requiring compliance with the Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ internal controls, corporate governance policies
and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance standards and consumer data guidelines and privacy rules and regulations; provided,
however, that the Parties understand that the Buyer’s actions to control the Company nonetheless may impact calculation of
the Company’s ARR. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the Buyer, the Company or any of their Affiliates
(i) shall be under any obligation or have any duty to act in such a manner that the Equity Earnout Shares or the Cash Earnout Amount
are issued or paid, (ii) will owe the Sellers or any Earnout Holders any fiduciary or other similar duty in respect of this Section 2.06,
or (iii) will have any obligation, and shall be bound by no agreement or covenant of any kind, in respect of this Section 2.06
other than an obligation to comply with (A) the covenants and agreements expressly set forth in this Section 2.06 and
(B) the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, it being the Parties’ intention that any other covenants, agreements and/or
obligations are expressly waived and disclaimed.

 

    8

     

    

 

(f)        Non-Assignability.

Buyer’s Affiliates which involves the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Action, in respect of which an indemnity

    30 

     

    

 

 

(i)            Payments
by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the
amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other
similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party (increased by any costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party with
respect to such recovery, and increased by Taxes of the Indemnified Party (or the Company, in the case of a Buyer Indemnitee) attributable
to the receipt of any such proceeds) by the Indemnified Party (or the Company, in the case of a Buyer Indemnitee) in respect of any such
Loss.

 

(j)            Each
Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware
of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, but such Indemnified Party will not have
a duty to incur any material costs in connection with the foregoing, and any out-of-pocket costs incurred by such Indemnified Party in
connection with such mitigation shall constitute Losses that may be recovered by such Indemnified Party.

 

Section 8.05     Indemnification
Procedures. The party making a claim under this Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”,
and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.
For purposes of this Article VIII, (i) if the Buyer (or any other Buyer Indemnitee) comprises the Indemnified Party,
any references to Indemnifying Party (except provisions relating to an obligation to make payments) shall be deemed to refer to the Seller,
and (ii) if the Buyer comprises the Indemnifying Party, any references to the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to refer to the Seller
and Seller Indemnitiees. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified
Party, to assume the defense of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party
to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim“) at the Indemnifying Party’s expense
and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. The Indemnified
Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying
Party’s right to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim,
fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently
prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification
for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party,
except as provided in this Section 8.05. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim,
assertion, event or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of any breach
or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in Article VII) shall be governed
exclusively by Article VII hereof.

 

Section 8.06     Payments.

 

(a)            On
and after the Closing, once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable, the Indemnifying Party
shall satisfy its obligations within [fifteen (15) Business Days] of such agreement or final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer
of immediately available funds. For the avoidance of doubt, any Losses payable to a Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to Article VIII
shall be satisfied from the Sellers, jointly and severally, as Indemnifying Parties.

 

(b)            Subject
to the limitations described in this Article VIII, the Buyer shall have the right to deduct and set-off any amount to which
it or any of the other Buyer Indemnitees is entitled under Section 2.05, Article VII or this Article VIII,
from and against any payments or other amounts due or owing to the Sellers, as Indemnifying Parties (such set-off right, the “Set-Off
Right“). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer, on behalf of itself and any of the other Buyer Indemnitees,
shall have the right to redeem (or cause Buyer to effect the redemption of) any Buyer Common Stock then-currently held by any Indemnifying
Party (and, in the case of the Seller, any shareholder of the Seller to whom the Seller have transferred or distributed any Buyer Common
Stock, each, a “Seller Shareholder”) to satisfy any amount to which Buyer or any of the other Buyer Indemnitees is
entitled under Section 2.05, Article VII or this Article VIII (the “Clawback Right”).

 

    31

     

    

 

(c)            Before
the Buyer (on behalf of itself or any Buyer Indemnitee) exercises its Clawback Right and effects such a redemption, the Buyer shall provide
written notice to the Sellers of its intention to effect such a redemption and afford the applicable Indemnifying Party (or the Seller
Shareholder) an opportunity to satisfy such amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days
of the delivery of such notice. Any such redemption of any share of Buyer Common Stock will be at the Buyer
Common Stock Per Share Price. The Sellers hereby grant, and, at the time of transfer or distribution of any Buyer Common Stock
by the Seller to any Seller Shareholder, the Seller shall procure that each Seller Shareholder grants, the Buyer and Buyer an irrevocable
power of attorney in order to effect such a redemption of Buyer Common Stock.

 

Section 8.07     Tax
Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties
as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

 

Section 8.08     Exclusive
Remedies. Other than (i) claims with respect to fraud, (ii) claims pursuant to Section 9.11 with respect to covenants
to be performed at or following the Closing, and (iii) claims pursuant to the terms of any Ancillary Document, the parties acknowledge

Executive Compensation Plan

 

Dear Reed,

 

We are pleased to share the following revision of your
compensation.

 

Updates are as follows:

 

		1.	Your annualized base Salary will increase to $250,000, effective, August 1, 2020.

 

		2.	You will be granted the Option to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price per share equal to
the fair market value per share of the Common Stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, and
subject to Board approval. Ten percent (10%) of the shares subject to the option shall vest 12 months after the date your vesting begins
subject to your continuing employment with the Company, and no shares shall vest before such date. The remaining shares shall vest quarterly
according to the following per-year schedule: 20%, 35%, 35% subject to your continuing employment with the Company. This option grant
shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan and Stock Option Agreement, including vesting
requirements. No right to any stock is earned or accrued until such time that vesting occurs, nor does the grant confer any right to continue
vesting or employment.

 

		3.	According to our SLT Performance-based bonus structure, hitting 100% of personal and company joint accountability goals would result
in an annualized bonus target of $175,000, to be evaluated and paid out quarterly.

 

		4.	Additionally, you’re eligible for a year-end bonus target $40,000 aligned to personal and company objectives and subject to
executive compensation guidelines.

 

This compensation summary supersedes previous salary,
commission, and bonus structure. Titles, compensation, and benefits may be changed at the discretion of the Company and employment remains
at-will.

 

Congratulations and thank you for your contributions!

 

Sincerely,

Tim Hwang
