 Agreement

 3.
Expenses. Company shall reimburse Director for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with his service as a director of Company, provided that the approval of Company shall be required prior to incurring any single, or

address located at 12038 N. 135th Place, Scottsdale, Arizona 82259 (“Contractor”). 

Recitals 
 A.
Contractor entered into a Services Agreement (“Original Agreement”) with TC Loan Service, LLC (“TCLS”).

D. Contractor is willing to perform such Services for Company on the terms and conditions as set forth in this Agreement. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and conditions herein set forth, the parties agree as follows: 

Agreement 
 1. Performance;
Independent Contractor. Company retains Contractor, and Contractor agrees to be retained, to perform the Services exclusively as an independent contractor. Contractor shall perform the Services in a professional and workmanlike manner, and to
the best abilities of Contractor. Further, Contractor shall perform the Services in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and all guidelines and procedures of Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute or be construed as
constituting or tending to create an agency, joint venture, partnership or employer-employee relationship between Company and Contractor. 
 2. Term.
The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall terminate as set forth in Section 6. Any termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not affect any right of action or claim of either party existing at the time of
such termination or expiration, and Sections 5 through 13 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Time is of the essence in the performance of the Services by Contractor. 

3. Fees and Expenses. In exchange for performance of the Services, Company shall pay Contractor the fees and costs as set forth on Exhibit A. All
invoices shall be paid in United States Dollars. Except as specifically set forth on Exhibit A, Company shall not have any obligation to pay Contractor any fees, costs, reimbursements or remuneration of any kind. Without limiting the foregoing,
Contractor is not eligible for any salary, fringe benefits, bonuses, equity incentives or other perquisites afforded to the employees of Company. Contractor is solely responsible for all taxes and withholdings arising from the compensation paid to
it hereunder including, but not limited 

 
to, federal and state income taxes. Contractor shall indemnify, defend and hold Company harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, liability, attorneys’ fees and expenses against
Company on account of any alleged failure by Contractor to satisfy any of such tax-related obligations. 
 4. Representations and Warranties. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Contractor will not result in any breach of or default under any term or provision of any agreement, obligation, instrument, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or governmental regulation
to which Contractor is a party or by which Contractor may be bound or which applies to Contractor’s performance of the Services. Contractor has no other agreements or obligations that would restrict and impair the performance of its obligations
pursuant to this Agreement including, without limitation, any confidentiality agreements with current or former clients or employers. Contractor has all requisite capacity and authority, as all well as all licenses, permits and other permissions, to
enter into this Agreement and perform all of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement is a legally binding obligation of Contractor. Contractor is a single-member limited liability company, wholly-owned by Stephen B. Galasso. 

5. Intellectual Property and Confidentiality. 

(a) Contractor shall hold all Confidential Information (as defined below) in confidence and will not disclose to any third party unless
authorized in writing by Company, or use or copy any Confidential Information, except to the limited extent as necessary to carry out its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Company does not grant any license to use the Confidential Information
other than to the limited extent required to perform the Services pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (b) As used in this Agreement,
“Confidential Information” means all information related to the business of Company including, but is not limited to, all Inventions (as defined below), discoveries, systems, technology, methods, trade secrets, programs (including
source and object code of computer programs), techniques, processes, procedures, sequences, designs, content, data, plans, specifications, costs, prices and other financial data, names and contact information of vendors, suppliers, business
partners, employees, contractors, customers, clients and licensees. Confidential Information does not include any information if: (i) it is publicly available prior to the Effective Date or becomes publicly available thereafter through no
wrongful act of Contractor; or (ii) it is independently developed by the Contractor without use of or reference to the Confidential Information. 

(c) Company will retain all right, title and interest in and to any content, software, data, designs and other materials, if any, supplied by
Company to Contractor (collectively, the “Materials”). Company hereby grants Contractor a limited, terminable, royalty-free and non-exclusive license to use the Materials solely for the purposes of performing the Services pursuant
to this Agreement. All deliverables, work in progress, records, data, notebooks, drawings, files, documents, software (source code and object code), products, equipment, and other materials including copies and in whatever form, relating to the
business of Company are the sole and exclusive property of Company. 
 (d) All right, title and interest in and to any deliverables which
result from the performance of the Services by Contractor shall be the exclusive property of Company, shall constitute the Confidential Information and shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be considered works made for hire. Further,
Contractor hereby assigns and agrees to assign to 

 
Company, without any further consideration, all right, title, and interest in and to all Inventions including, without limitation, all rights to obtain, register, perfect, and enforce patents,
trademarks, copyrights, mask work rights, and all other industrial and intellectual property protection for such Inventions. Contractor will disclose promptly and in writing to Company all Inventions that Contractor makes or reduces to practice.
During the term of this Agreement and for four (4) years after, Contractor will assist Company (at its expense) to obtain and enforce patents, copyrights, mask work rights, and all other forms of intellectual property protection on Inventions.
As used in this Agreement, “Inventions” means all inventions, discoveries, improvements, ideas, designs, programs (including all object code and source code), circuits, schematics, results, algorithms, trade secrets, works of
authorship, developments, improvements, and related know-how which result from work performed by Contractor, alone or with others, on behalf of Company or from access to the Confidential Information, Materials, deliverables or any property of
Company whether or not patentable or copyrightable. 
 (e) If for any reason Contractor is unable to assign to Company all right, title and
interest in and to any Invention or deliverable, then Contractor hereby grants Company an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free and fully-paid license to use, reproduce, display, perform, commercialize and prepare derivative works from any
Invention or deliverable. 
 (f) Contractor shall ensure that each of its employees and consultants has entered into confidentiality and
inventions assignment agreements consistent with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5. Upon the request of Company, Contractor shall provide copies of such agreements to Company, provided that Contractor may redact the economic
terms thereof. 
 (g) Contractor will safeguard and keep confidential the proprietary information of customers, vendors, licensees,
consultants, and other parties with which Company does business to the same extent as if it were Confidential Information. Contractor will not, during the term of this Agreement or at any time thereafter, use or disclose to Company any confidential,
trade secret, or other proprietary information or material of any previous client, and Contractor will not bring onto Company’s premises any unpublished document or any other property belonging to any former employer or client without the
written consent of that former client. 
 (h) Contractor agrees that damages will not be an adequate remedy in the event of a breach of any
of Contractor’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5. Therefore, Company shall be entitled (without limitation of any other rights or remedies otherwise available to Company and without the necessity of posting a bond or other security)
to obtain an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the threat, continuance or recurrence of any breach of this Section 5 without the requirement of posting a bond or any other security. 

6. Termination. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and termination on the first anniversary hereof provided that the term
of this Agreement shall automatically renew for additional terms of one (1) year each unless either party provides written notice of termination at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the end of the then-current term. Further, either
party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon at least thirty (30) calendar days notice to the other party. Each party may terminate this Agreement if the other party breaches this Agreement and such breach is not cured within ten
(10) calendar days after the non-breaching party has given the breaching party written notice reasonably describing the breach. 

 7. Indemnification. 

(a) Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, defend and indemnify and hold harmless Contractor and its successors, assigns, managers,
members, owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives, and agents from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and court costs at trial and all appellate levels)
whatsoever (collectively, “Losses”) which may (i) arise or result from Company’s breach of this Agreement or (ii) be asserted by any third party against Contractor as a result of the provision of the Services
hereunder, except to the extent that such Losses have arisen as a result of the gross negligence, fraud or intentional or willful misconduct of Contractor. 

(b) Contractor shall, at its sole cost and expense, defend and indemnify and hold harmless Company and its affiliates, subsidiaries and each
of their respective successors, assigns, stockholders, managers, members, owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives, and agents from and against any and all Losses which may arise or result from (i) Contractor’s breach of
this Agreement or (ii) the gross negligence, fraud or intentional or willful misconduct of Contractor, except to the extent that such Losses have arisen as a result of the gross negligence, fraud or intentional or willful misconduct of Company.

 8. Choice of Laws; Attorneys Fees. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
regard to its principles of conflicts of law. If any party takes any action to enforce this Agreement or bring any action or commence any arbitration for any relief against the other party, declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Agreement,
then the losing party shall pay the prevailing party such party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in litigating such suit or arbitration and/or enforcing any judgment granted therein. 

9. Amendments; Waivers. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing specifically
referring to this Agreement and duly signed by an authorized representative of each party. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period of time shall not be construed as a waiver of such right.

 10. Assignability. Contractor may not, either directly or by operation of law, assign, transfer or sell this Agreement or any of its rights or
responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder without Company’s prior express written consent. Any attempted assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void and without effect.

the subject matter hereof, and all written or oral agreements heretofore existing between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof are expressly canceled. Contractor acknowledges that the Original Agreement terminated as of the
Effective Date. 
 12. Partial Invalidity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
other provisions hereof. If any provision or partial provision hereof is found to be illegal or unenforceable for being too broad with respect to the duration, scope or subject matter thereof, then such provision or partial provision shall be deemed
and construed to be reduced to the maximum duration, scope or subject matter permitted by law. 

 13. Notices. All notices under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be deemed given when
personally delivered, or three (3) calendar days after being sent by recognized overnight courier service to the address of the other party to be noticed as set forth herein or such other address as such party last provided to the other by

 4. Representations and Warranties. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Contractor
will not result in any breach of or default under any term or provision of any agreement, obligation, instrument, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or governmental regulation to which Contractor is a party or by which Contractor may be bound or
which applies to Contractor’s performance of the Services. Contractor has no other agreements or obligations that would restrict and impair the performance of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement including, without limitation, any
confidentiality agreements with current or former clients or employers. Contractor has all requisite capacity and authority, as all well as all licenses, permits and other permissions, to enter into this Agreement and perform all of its obligations
hereunder. This Agreement is a legally binding obligation of Contractor. Contractor is a single-member limited liability company, wholly-owned by Stephen B. Galasso. 

5. Intellectual Property and Confidentiality. 

(a) Contractor shall hold all Confidential Information (as defined below) in confidence and will not disclose to any third party unless
authorized in writing by Company, or use or copy any Confidential Information, except to the limited extent as necessary to carry out its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Company does not grant any license to use the Confidential Information
other than to the limited extent required to perform the Services pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (b) As used in this Agreement,
“Confidential Information” means all information related to the business of Company including, but is not limited to, all Inventions (as defined below), discoveries, systems, technology, methods, trade secrets, programs (including
source and object code of computer programs), techniques, processes, procedures, sequences, designs, content, data, plans, specifications, costs, prices and other financial data, names and contact information of vendors, suppliers, business
partners, employees, contractors, customers, clients and licensees. Confidential Information does not include any information if: (i) it is publicly available prior to the Effective Date or becomes publicly available thereafter through no
wrongful act of Contractor; or (ii) it is independently developed by the Contractor without use of or reference to the Confidential Information. 

(c) Company will retain all right, title and interest in and to any content, software, data, designs and other materials, if any, supplied by
Company to Contractor (collectively, the “Materials”). Company hereby grants Contractor a limited, terminable, royalty-free and non-exclusive license to use the Materials solely for the purposes of performing the Services pursuant
to this Agreement. All deliverables, work in progress, records, data, notebooks, drawings, files, documents, software (source code and object code), products, equipment, and other materials including copies and in whatever form, relating to the
business of Company are the sole and exclusive property of Company. 
 (d) All right, title and interest in and to any deliverables which
result from the performance of the Services by Contractor shall be the exclusive property of Company, shall constitute the Confidential Information and shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be considered works made for hire. Further,
Contractor hereby assigns and agrees to assign to Company, without any further consideration, all right, title, and interest in and to all Inventions including, without limitation, all rights to obtain, register, perfect, and enforce patents,
trademarks, copyrights, mask work rights, and all other industrial and intellectual property protection for such Inventions. Contractor will disclose promptly and in writing to Company all Inventions that Contractor makes or reduces to practice.
During the term of this Agreement and for four (4) years after, Contractor will assist Company (at its expense) to obtain and enforce patents, copyrights, mask work rights, and all other forms of intellectual property protection on Inventions.
As used in this 

 
Agreement, “Inventions” means all inventions, discoveries, improvements, ideas, designs, programs (including all object code and source code), circuits, schematics, results,
algorithms, trade secrets, works of authorship, developments, improvements, and related know-how which result from work performed by Contractor, alone or with others, on behalf of Company or from access to the Confidential Information, Materials,
deliverables or any property of Company whether or not patentable or copyrightable. 
 (e) If for any reason Contractor is unable to assign
to Company all right, title and interest in and to any Invention or deliverable, then Contractor hereby grants Company an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free and fully-paid license to use, reproduce, display, perform, commercialize and
prepare derivative works from any Invention or deliverable. 
 (f) Contractor shall ensure that each of its employees and consultants has
entered into confidentiality and inventions assignment agreements consistent with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5. Upon the request of Company, Contractor shall provide copies of such agreements to Company, provided that
Contractor may redact the economic terms thereof. 
 (g) Contractor will safeguard and keep confidential the proprietary information of
customers, vendors, licensees, consultants, and other parties with which Company does business to the same extent as if it were Confidential Information. Contractor will not, during the term of this Agreement or at any time thereafter, use or
disclose to Company any confidential, trade secret, or other proprietary information or material of any previous client, and Contractor will not bring onto Company’s premises any unpublished document or any other property belonging to any
former employer or client without the written consent of that former client. 
 (h) Contractor agrees that damages will not be an adequate
remedy in the event of a breach of any of Contractor’s obligations pursuant to this Section 5. Therefore, Company shall be entitled (without limitation of any other rights or remedies otherwise available to Company and without the
necessity of posting a bond or other security) to obtain an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the threat, continuance or recurrence of any breach of this Section 5 without the requirement of posting a bond or any
other security. 
 6. Termination. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and termination on the first anniversary hereof
provided that the term of this Agreement shall automatically renew for additional terms of one (1) year each unless either party provides written notice of termination at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the end of the then-current
term. Further, either party may terminate this Agreement at any time upon at least thirty (30) calendar days notice to the other party. Each party may terminate this Agreement if the other party breaches this Agreement and such breach is not
cured within ten (10) calendar days after the non-breaching party has given the breaching party written notice reasonably describing the breach. 
 7.
Indemnification. 
 (a) Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, defend and indemnify and hold harmless Contractor and its
successors, assigns, managers, members, owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives, and agents from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and court costs at
trial and all appellate levels) whatsoever (collectively, “Losses”) which may (i) arise or result from Company’s breach of this Agreement or (ii) be asserted by any third party against Contractor as a result of the
provision of the Services hereunder, except to the extent that such Losses have arisen as a result of the gross negligence, fraud or intentional or willful misconduct of Contractor.

of their respective successors, assigns, stockholders, managers, members, owners, officers, directors, employees, representatives, and agents from and against any and all Losses which may arise or result from (i) Contractor’s breach of
this Agreement or (ii) the gross negligence, fraud or intentional or willful misconduct of Contractor, except to the extent that such Losses have arisen as a result of the gross negligence, fraud or intentional or willful misconduct of Company.

 8. Choice of Laws; Attorneys Fees. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. If any party takes any action to enforce this Agreement or bring any action or commence any arbitration for any relief against the other party, declaratory or
otherwise, arising out of this Agreement, then the losing party shall pay the prevailing party such party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in litigating such suit or arbitration and/or enforcing any judgment granted therein.

 9. Amendments; Waivers. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing
specifically referring to this Agreement and duly signed by an authorized representative of each party. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period of time shall not be construed as a waiver of
such right. 
 10. Assignability. Contractor may not, either directly or by operation of law, assign, transfer or sell this Agreement or any of its
rights or responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder without Company’s prior express written consent. Any attempted assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void and without effect. 

11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with each exhibit attached hereto constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof, and all written or oral agreements heretofore existing between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof are expressly canceled. Contractor acknowledges that the Original Agreement terminated as of the
Effective Date. 
 12. Partial Invalidity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
other provisions hereof. If any provision or partial provision hereof is found to be illegal or unenforceable for being too broad with respect to the duration, scope or subject matter thereof, then such provision or partial provision shall be deemed
and construed to be reduced to the maximum duration, scope or subject matter permitted by law. 
 13. Notices. All notices under this Agreement shall
be in writing, and shall be deemed given when personally delivered, or three (3) calendar days after being sent by recognized overnight courier service to the address of the other party to be noticed as set forth herein or such other address as
such party last provided to the other by written notice.
