ARTICLE 8.0 – INDEMNIFICATION &
DEFENSE OF CLAIMS

 

8.1 
Indemnification Agreement.

 

It is the intent of the Parties,
and as an inducement for Executive to accept employment with Company under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, that Company will
provide indemnity protection to Executive, both in connection with his position of employment with Company and in the discharge of his
duties and responsibilities to Company, to the maximum extent allowed under the laws of the State of Nevada. Accordingly, Company and
Executive shall, either concurrently with, or immediately following, the execution of this Agreement, enter into and execute an Indemnification
Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

 

8.2 
Other Indemnity Protection.

 

The indemnity protections
provided to Executive in the Indemnification Agreement shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, any of indemnification rights
that may be granted or otherwise available to Executive under the governing documents of Company or under Nevada law.

 

    13

     

    

 

ARTICLE 9.0 – GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE
RESOLUTION

 

9.1 Governing Law.

 

This Agreement shall be construed and enforced
in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to the choice of laws principles thereof.

 

9.2 
Dispute Resolution; Arbitration.

 

(a)
At the option of Company or Executive, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute, controversy or question arising
under, based on or relating to this Agreement, or any breach or failure to comply with the terms hereof (each a “Dispute”),
shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”)
under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, arbitration of any Dispute
shall be conducted before a single arbitrator selected by the Parties and the forum and venue for such arbitration shall be AAA’s
Los Angeles Regional Center in Los Angeles, California. Each Party hereby submits to AAA and the selected forum for the arbitration of
any Dispute, waives any objection to the venue of such arbitration, and agrees that service of process and other notices, pleadings and
documents in any arbitration or proceeding hereunder may be delivered to a Party in accordance with the provisions governing “Notices”
in this Agreement.

 

(b)
If the Parties are unable to agree upon a neutral arbitrator within thirty (30) days after a Party notifies the other Party in
writing of its intent to submit a Dispute to arbitration, either Party may apply to AAA for the appointment of an arbitrator or, if AAA
is not then in existence or declines to act, either Party may apply to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of any county in the
State of California for the appointment of a neutral arbitrator to hear the Parties and settle the Dispute and such Judge is hereby authorized
to make such appointment.

 

(c)
If the Parties so agree in writing, and subject to the consent of the single arbitrator, hearings and proceedings conducted in
the arbitration of any Dispute hereunder may be conducted remotely by secure video conferencing technology that is acceptable to the Parties.

 

(d)
The decision or award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall set forth detailed reasoning for the award. Discovery shall
be conducted expeditiously, bearing in mind the objective of limiting discovery and expediting the decision or award of the arbitrator
at the most reasonable cost and expense to the Parties. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties
and no action at law or in equity shall be instituted or, if instituted, prosecuted by either Party other than to enforce the award of
the arbitrator. Judgment upon an award rendered pursuant to such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction or application
may be made to such court for a judicial acceptance of the award and/or an order of enforcement, as the case may be.

 

9.3 
Extraordinary Relief.

 

The rights of Company under
this Agreement are of a special, unique and intellectual character which gives them a unique value, and a breach of any provision of this
Agreement (including in particular the provisions contained in Articles 5.0 and 6.0) will cause Company irreparable economic harm or damage
that cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in an action at law. Accordingly, without limiting any right or remedy
that Company may have under this Agreement or applicable law, or otherwise, Executive agrees that Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive
and other extraordinary relief to enforce and protect its rights granted under this Agreement, whether through arbitration or litigation
as provided herein, without any requirement that it post a bond or other security.

 

    14

     

    

 

9.4 
Expenses of Enforcement.

 

In the event that Executive
is the prevailing party in any arbitration or litigation under this Article 9.0, Company shall pay Executive’s attorneys' fees and
costs, including the compensation and expenses of any arbitrator, unless the arbitrator or the court determines that (a) Company has no
liability in such Dispute, or (b) the action or claims by Executive are frivolous in nature. In any other case or matter, Company and
Executive shall each bear its or his/her own attorney fees and costs, except that Company shall pay the costs of any arbitrator appointed
under Section 9.2.

EXHIBIT A

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 

 

This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
(“Agreement”), dated and made effective as of July 30, 2021, is entered into by and between INNOVATIVE PAYMENT SOLUTIONS,
INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada, having offices at 19355 Business Center Drive, Northridge,
CA 91324 (“Company”), and WILLIAM CORBETT, an individual (“Indemnitee”) (each party hereto sometimes referred
to as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H

 

A.
Company desires to attract and retain the services of highly qualified individuals, including individuals such as Indemnitee, to
serve as officers, directors, and managers to or with Company and its affiliated companies and recognizes that competent and experienced
individuals are reluctant to serve as directors, officers, or managers of corporations unless they are protected by indemnification or
by liability insurance, or both, in light of increased exposure to litigation risks and costs that may arise in connection with the services
they provide to corporations and other legal entities and enterprises;

 

B.
Existing laws governing or relating to the duties of officers and directors are frequently difficult to interpret and apply and
are often unclear or ambiguous and fail to provide officers and directors with clear, adequate and reliable knowledge or guidance with
respect to the legal risks and potential liabilities to which they may be exposed and the actions that they should take in performing
their duties and responsibilities in good faith for their companies;

 

C. The Nevada
Corporation Law authorizes and empowers Company to indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents and the persons that serve
or served, at the request of Company, as officers, directors, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise and provides that a Nevada corporation, in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, or in an agreement, may
provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by
the corporation as such expenses are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt
of an undertaking to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the officer or director
is not entitled to be indemnified;

 

D. To induce Indemnitee
to serve as an officer, director, employee or agent of Company as contemplated hereinabove, Company desires to indemnify Indemnitee to
the fullest extent permitted by or under the Nevada Corporation Law.

 

    A-1

indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Claim (other than
a Claim by or in the right of Company), asserted or brought by reason of an Indemnity Event, against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee
in connection such Claim, if Indemnitee either (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS § 78.138, or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner
he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Company and, in the case of a criminal claim or proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe that his/her conduct was unlawful.

 

4.2 The termination
or resolution of any Claim by judgment, judicial order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, does
not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee is liable under or pursuant to NRS § 78.138 or did not act in good faith or
in a manner which he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Company or, with respect to any criminal
claim or proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his/her conduct was unlawful. Any payment of Expenses under
this Section 4 shall be made by Company within thirty (30) days after written demand by Indemnitee for such payment is delivered or submitted
to Company.

 

5. Indemnification; Derivative Actions.

indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Claim by or in
the name of Company to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of an Indemnity Event, against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in
connection with such Claim, if Indemnitee either (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138, or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner
he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Company.

 

5.2 Notwithstanding

jurisdiction determines upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled
to indemnity for such Expenses as the court deems proper. Any payment of Expenses under this Section 5 shall be made by Company, if Indemnitee
is determined to be entitled to such Expenses, within thirty (30) days after written demand by Indemnitee for such payment is delivered
or submitted to Company.

 

    A-4

     

    

 

6. Mandatory Payment/Reimbursement
of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement (other than as provided in Sections 10 and 11), if and
to the extent that Indemnitee is successful on the merits or otherwise in defending any Claim regarding or arising from an Indemnity Event
(including any favorable judgment or dismissal with or without prejudice), Indemnitee shall be indemnified, and shall be paid for all
Expenses incurred by Indemnitee (other than Expenses previously advanced or paid to Indemnitee by Company), in connection with any such
Claim.

 

7. Indemnification; Payment of Expenses.

 

7.1 Expense Advances.

 

(a) To the extent
permitted by applicable law, Company shall advance to Indemnitee the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim regarding
or arising from an Indemnity Event, with the advance of such Expenses being made by Company within thirty (30) days after Company receives
a statement, invoice or written demand from Indemnitee (with any required or supporting documentation) requesting such advance of Expenses,
provided and on the condition that Indemnitee (i) has provided to Company an undertaking to repay all such Expense Advances to Company
if and to the extent that it is determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order, that Indemnitee
is not entitled to be indemnified by Company, and (ii) such undertaking remains in effect hereunder.

 

(b) In requesting
any Expense Advance from Company, Indemnitee may, in the event that any supporting documentation refers to legal services rendered or
anticipated in a manner, or to the extent that, it could result in a waiver of the attorney/client privilege or other privilege accorded
Indemnitee under applicable law, deliver or submit to Company only copies of invoices without supporting documentation.

 

(c) Any Expense
Advances requested by Indemnitee shall be unsecured and interest-free and shall be made to Indemnitee without regard to Indemnitee’s
ability to repay such Expense Advances to Company (other than in providing Company with an undertaking by execution of this Agreement
as provided in Section 7.2 in the event that it is determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification with respect to such
Expenses. The right of Indemnitee to request and obtain Expense Advances hereunder shall continue until the final disposition (including
any appeal) of each Claim for which Expense Advances may be requested from time to time by Indemnitee as provided herein.

 

(d) Indemnitee’s
right to Expense Advances under this Section 7.1 shall not apply to any request or claim by Indemnitee for or with respect to which indemnification
is excluded or precluded under Sections 10 or 11.

 

7.2 Expense
Advance Undertaking. Company and Indemnitee each acknowledge and agree that Indemnitee’s execution and delivery of this
Agreement to Company shall constitute an undertaking by Indemnitee, to the fullest extent required by applicable law, to repay to Company
all Expense Advances if and to the extent that it is determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment
or order, that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by Company.

 

    A-5

     

    

 

8. Notice of Claims; Duty to Cooperate.

 

8.1 Indemnitee
agrees to provide Company with a written notice, as soon as possible or practicable, of any Claim threatened, asserted or made against
Indemnitee and for or as to which indemnification is or may be sought by Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise. Each such notice
by Indemnitee shall be directed to the board of directors of Company or to its chief executive officer or secretary at the address for
Company listed or displayed on the signature page of this Agreement (or such other address as Company may designate in writing to Indemnitee
from time to time). Any failure of Indemnitee to give written notice of any such Claim as provided hereinabove shall not relieve Company
of its obligation to indemnify Indemnitee unless and to the extent that Company demonstrates that such failure on the part of Indemnitee
has resulted or will result in irreparable economic harm to Company that could have been avoided if Indemnitee had provided timely notice
to Company as provided herein.

 

8.2 With respect
to any Claim for or as to which Company may be required to indemnify Indemnitee (or as to which Company has assumed the defense of Indemnitee
as provided hereinafter), Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with Company in the defense of any such Claim and will provide to Company
such information and documents as Company may reasonably require to the extent that Indemnitee is in possession of or has the power to
access and obtain such information and documents.

 

9. Selection of Counsel.

 

9.1 In the event
that Company is obligated to indemnify Indemnitee for the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim, Company shall
be entitled, at its election and upon giving written notice to Indemnitee, to assume the defense of such Claim with counsel selected by
Company and approved by Indemnitee (with such approval not unreasonably withheld or delayed by Indemnitee).

 

9.2 Upon Company’s
election to assume the defense of any Claim as provided herein (and counsel has been retained by Company in connection therewith), Company
shall have no further obligation to pay Indemnitee for attorneys’ fees incurred by Indemnitee with respect to such Claim. Notwithstanding
Company’s assumption of the defense of any such Claim, Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel with respect to
such Claim at Indemnitee’s expense. In addition thereto, Company shall dispense with the counsel it has retained (with Indemnitee’s
consent) and shall pay the fees and charges of Indemnitee’s separate counsel if (a) Company agrees to do so in writing, or (b) Indemnitee
and its separate counsel has determined that a conflict of interest may exist between Company and Indemnitee in conducting the defense
of any Claim.

 

    A-6

     

    

 

10. Exclusions from Indemnity.

 

10.1 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Company shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee or pay the Expenses of Indemnitee in
or with respect to any of the following:

 

(a) Any Claims
(and the Expenses incurred in connection therewith) that are initiated or asserted by Indemnitee and not by way of defense of any Claim,
except for claims, actions, suits or proceedings initiated by Indemnitee (1) to enforce his/her indemnification rights under this Agreement
or other agreement or insurance policy, or under the Articles or Bylaws, (2) with the prior authorization or approval of the Board of
Directors, or (3) as otherwise may be required under the Nevada Corporation Law to establish Indemnitee’s right to indemnity or
payment of Expenses (and regardless of its outcome or ultimate disposition).

 

(b) Any claims
asserted or any action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce the terms of this Agreement if a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that any such claim, action, suit or proceeding was not asserted or instituted by Indemnitee in good faith or is otherwise
determined to be frivolous or without any legitimate basis in fact or law. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly stated that the
Company is obligated to indemnify Executive for claims to enforce the terms of this Agreement that are brought in good faith and are non-frivolous.

 

(c) Any acts,
omissions, activities or other transactions conducted by Indemnitee for or as to which Indemnitee may not be indemnified or relieved of
liability under applicable law.

 

(d) Any Claims
(and the Expenses paid in connection therewith) if it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment or order that (1) such payments
were made in violation of applicable law, (2) Indemnitee must make an accounting of profits from Indemnitee’s purchase and sale
of Company’s securities under or pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or a similar provision under federal
or state law, or (3) Indemnitee’s acts, actions or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law,
including any determination that Indemnitee defrauded or stole from Company, misappropriated confidential or proprietary information or
the trade secrets of Company, or otherwise converted the assets or properties of Company to his/her own personal use or benefit.

 

(e) Settlement of any Claim, or any amounts
paid in settlement of any Claim, without Company’s written consent.

 

11. Exclusion; Potential Liability
Under Securities Laws.

 

Notwithstanding
any provision in this Agreement, Company shall not be required or obligated to indemnify Indemnitee under any Claim (or pay the Expenses
in connection therewith) to the extent that such indemnity and payment of Expenses (a) will violate the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, or the rules and regulations thereunder, respectively, or any registration statement filed by Company under the Securities Act, or
any public policy relating thereto, or (b) will require Company, to achieve compliance with the undertakings required in paragraph (h)
of Item 512 of Regulation S-K, to submit to a court of competent jurisdiction any issue regarding whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

    A-7

     

    

 

12. Statute of Limitations; Claims
in the Right of Company.

 

No civil action
or proceeding shall be asserted, initiated or brought by or in the right of Company against Indemnitee or his/her estate, spouse, heirs,
executors or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two (2) years from the date on which any Claim (or any claim or
cause of action asserted therein) arose or accrued under applicable law, and any such claim or cause of action shall be time-barred, extinguished
and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a civil action or proceeding within such two-year period; provided,
however, in the event that any shorter statute or period of limitations is or becomes applicable to any such claim or cause of
action under applicable law, the shorter statute or period of limitations shall govern.

 

13. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

 

13.1 Governing
Law. This Agreement, including the validity, substance, interpretation and enforcement thereof, shall be governed in all respects
by the laws of the State of Nevada without regard to its conflicts of laws or choice of laws principles.

 

13.2 Dispute Resolution; Arbitration.

 

(a) At the option
of Company or Executive, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute, controversy or question arising under, based on or
relating to this Agreement, or any breach or failure to comply with the terms hereof (each a “Dispute”), shall be finally
and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under
its Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, arbitration of any Dispute
shall be conducted before a single arbitrator selected by the Parties and the forum and venue for such arbitration shall be AAA’s
Los Angeles Regional Center in Los Angeles, California. Each Party hereby submits to AAA and the selected forum for the arbitration of
any Dispute, waives any objection to the venue of such arbitration, and agrees that service of process and other notices, pleadings and
documents in any arbitration or proceeding hereunder may be delivered to a Party in accordance with the provisions governing “Notices”
in this Agreement.

 

(b) If the Parties
are unable to agree upon a neutral arbitrator within thirty (30) days after a Party notifies the other Party in writing of its intent
to submit a Dispute to arbitration, either Party may apply to AAA for the appointment of an arbitrator or, if AAA is not then in existence
or declines to act, either Party may apply to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of any county in the State of California for the
appointment of a neutral arbitrator to hear the Parties and settle the Dispute and such Judge is hereby authorized to make such appointment.

    A-8

     

    

 

(d) The decision
or award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall set forth detailed reasoning for the award. Discovery shall be conducted expeditiously,
bearing in mind the objective of limiting discovery and expediting the decision or award of the arbitrator at the most reasonable cost
and expense to the Parties. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and no action at law
or in equity shall be instituted or, if instituted, prosecuted by either Party other than to enforce the award of the arbitrator. Judgment
upon an award rendered pursuant to such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction or application may be made to such
court for a judicial acceptance of the award and/or an order of enforcement, as the case may be.

 

13.3 Extraordinary Relief.

 

The rights of the
Parties under this Agreement are of a special, unique and intellectual character which gives them a unique value, and a breach of any
provision of this Agreement (including in particular the provisions contained in Articles 5.0 and 6.0) will cause the Parties irreparable
economic harm or damage that cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in an action at law. Accordingly, without limiting
any right or remedy that either Party may have under this Agreement or applicable law, or otherwise, the Parties agree that they each
shall be entitled to seek injunctive and other extraordinary relief to enforce and protect their respective rights granted under this
Agreement, whether through arbitration or litigation as provided herein, without any requirement that either Party post a bond or other
security.

 

13.4 Expenses of Enforcement.

 

The prevailing Party
in any arbitration under this Article 13.0 shall have its attorneys’ fees and costs, including the compensation and expenses of
any arbitrator, paid by the non-prevailing Party.

 

14. Notices.

 

All notices, requests,
demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (a) if delivered by hand or by
private courier and signed for by the receiving Party, on the date of such delivery, (b) if sent by facsimile with written evidence of
successful transmission, on the date of such transmission, or (c) if mailed by domestic certified or registered mail with postage prepaid,
on the third business day after the date postmarked. The addresses for notices to either Party are as displayed in the introductory paragraph
of this Agreement or as subsequently modified by written notice by a Party to the other Party.

 

15. General Provisions.

 

15.1 Amendment,
Waiver & Termination. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or cancellation of this Agreement shall be effective
unless it is in writing and signed by each Party. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be or shall
constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

 

    A-9

     

    

 

15.2 Integration;
Entirety. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the Parties and supersedes and merges all previous written
and oral negotiations, commitments, understandings and agreements relating to the subject matter hereof between the Parties.

 

15.3 Disclaimer
of Employment Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as giving Indemnitee any right to be retained
in the employ of Company or any of its Affiliates.

 

15.4 Severability.
In the event that any provision contained in this Agreement (including any provision within a single section, paragraph or sentence) is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable
to the fullest extent permitted by law. In connection therewith, and to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement
(including each portion of this Agreement containing any provision held to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable that is not itself
invalid, void or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the Parties in the provision held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

 

15.5 Subrogation.
In the event of any payment by Company under this Agreement, Company shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all of the
rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all documents required and shall do all acts as may be necessary to secure such rights
and to enable Company to assert all claims and to initiate all such civil actions, suits and proceedings that may be required or necessary
to enforce such rights and claims.

 

15.6 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, including facsimile or digital counterparts, each of which shall constitute
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 

 

This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
(“Agreement”), dated and made effective as of July 30, 2021, is entered into by and between INNOVATIVE PAYMENT SOLUTIONS,
INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada, having offices at 19355 Business Center Drive, Northridge,
CA 91324 (“Company”), and WILLIAM CORBETT, an individual (“Indemnitee”) (each party hereto sometimes referred
to as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H

 

A. Company
desires to attract and retain the services of highly qualified individuals, including individuals such as Indemnitee, to serve as officers,
directors, and managers to or with Company and its affiliated companies and recognizes that competent and experienced individuals are
reluctant to serve as directors, officers, or managers of corporations unless they are protected by indemnification or by liability insurance,
or both, in light of increased exposure to litigation risks and costs that may arise in connection with the services they provide to corporations
and other legal entities and enterprises;

 

B. Existing
laws governing or relating to the duties of officers and directors are frequently difficult to interpret and apply and are often unclear
or ambiguous and fail to provide officers and directors with clear, adequate and reliable knowledge or guidance with respect to the legal
risks and potential liabilities to which they may be exposed and the actions that they should take in performing their duties and responsibilities
in good faith for their companies;

 

C. The Nevada Corporation
Law authorizes and empowers Company to indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents and the persons that serve or served, at
the request of Company, as officers, directors, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise and provides that a Nevada corporation, in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, or in an agreement, may provide that the
expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation
as such expenses are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking
to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the officer or director is not entitled to
be indemnified;

 

D. To induce Indemnitee to
serve as an officer, director, employee or agent of Company as contemplated hereinabove, Company desires to indemnify Indemnitee to the
fullest extent permitted by or under the Nevada Corporation Law.

as of the date of this Agreement.

laws, statutes and regulations, any such changes shall not narrow or reduce, or be applied to narrow or reduce, the scope and benefits
of indemnification provided to Indemnitee as of the date of this Agreement.

 

4. Indemnification; Third Party Claims.

 

4.1 Company shall indemnify
Indemnitee if Indemnitee is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Claim (other than a Claim
by or in the right of Company), asserted or brought by reason of an Indemnity Event, against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection
such Claim, if Indemnitee either (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS § 78.138, or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Company and, in the case of a criminal claim or proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe that his/her conduct was unlawful.

 

    3

     

    

 

4.2 The termination or resolution
of any Claim by judgment, judicial order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, does not, of itself,
create a presumption that Indemnitee is liable under or pursuant to NRS § 78.138 or did not act in good faith or in a manner which
he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Company or, with respect to any criminal claim or proceeding,
that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his/her conduct was unlawful. Any payment of Expenses under this Section 4 shall
be made by Company within thirty (30) days after written demand by Indemnitee for such payment is delivered or submitted to Company.

 

5. Indemnification; Derivative Actions.

 

5.1 Company shall indemnify
Indemnitee if Indemnitee is a party to or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any Claim by or in the name
of Company to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of an Indemnity Event, against all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection
with such Claim, if Indemnitee either (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138, or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Company.

 

5.2 Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 5.1, no indemnification thereunder shall be provided to Indemnitee for any Claim, issue or matter to which Indemnitee has been
adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after the exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to Company or for amounts paid
in settlement to Company, unless and to the extent that any court in which such Claim is brought or other court of competent jurisdiction
determines upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity
for such Expenses as the court deems proper. Any payment of Expenses under this Section 5 shall be made by Company, if Indemnitee is determined
to be entitled to such Expenses, within thirty (30) days after written demand by Indemnitee for such payment is delivered or submitted
to Company.

 

6. Mandatory Payment/Reimbursement
of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement (other than as provided in Sections 10 and 11), if and
to the extent that Indemnitee is successful on the merits or otherwise in defending any Claim regarding or arising from an Indemnity Event
(including any favorable judgment or dismissal with or without prejudice), Indemnitee shall be indemnified, and shall be paid for all
Expenses incurred by Indemnitee (other than Expenses previously advanced or paid to Indemnitee by Company), in connection with any such
Claim.

 

7. Indemnification; Payment of Expenses.

 

7.1 Expense Advances.

 

(a) To the extent permitted
by applicable law, Company shall advance to Indemnitee the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim regarding or arising
from an Indemnity Event, with the advance of such Expenses being made by Company within thirty (30) days after Company receives a statement,
invoice or written demand from Indemnitee (with any required or supporting documentation) requesting such advance of Expenses, provided
and on the condition that Indemnitee (i) has provided to Company an undertaking to repay all such Expense Advances to Company if and to
the extent that it is determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order, that Indemnitee is
not entitled to be indemnified by Company, and (ii) such undertaking remains in effect hereunder.

 

    4

     

    

 

(b) In requesting any Expense
Advance from Company, Indemnitee may, in the event that any supporting documentation refers to legal services rendered or anticipated
in a manner, or to the extent that, it could result in a waiver of the attorney/client privilege or other privilege accorded Indemnitee
under applicable law, deliver or submit to Company only copies of invoices without supporting documentation.

 

(c) Any Expense Advances requested
by Indemnitee shall be unsecured and interest-free and shall be made to Indemnitee without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay
such Expense Advances to Company (other than in providing Company with an undertaking by execution of this Agreement as provided in Section
7.2 in the event that it is determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification with respect to such Expenses. The right of
Indemnitee to request and obtain Expense Advances hereunder shall continue until the final disposition (including any appeal) of each
Claim for which Expense Advances may be requested from time to time by Indemnitee as provided herein.

 

(d) Indemnitee’s right
to Expense Advances under this Section 7.1 shall not apply to any request or claim by Indemnitee for or with respect to which indemnification
is excluded or precluded under Sections 10 or 11.

 

7.2 Expense Advance
Undertaking. Company and Indemnitee each acknowledge and agree that Indemnitee’s execution and delivery of this Agreement
to Company shall constitute an undertaking by Indemnitee, to the fullest extent required by applicable law, to repay to Company all Expense
Advances if and to the extent that it is determined, by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order,
that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by Company.

 

8. Notice of Claims; Duty to Cooperate.

 

8.1 Indemnitee agrees to
provide Company with a written notice, as soon as possible or practicable, of any Claim threatened, asserted or made against Indemnitee
and for or as to which indemnification is or may be sought by Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise. Each such notice by Indemnitee
shall be directed to the board of directors of Company or to its chief executive officer or secretary at the address for Company listed
or displayed on the signature page of this Agreement (or such other address as Company may designate in writing to Indemnitee from time
to time). Any failure of Indemnitee to give written notice of any such Claim as provided hereinabove shall not relieve Company of its
obligation to indemnify Indemnitee unless and to the extent that Company demonstrates that such failure on the part of Indemnitee has
resulted or will result in irreparable economic harm to Company that could have been avoided if Indemnitee had provided timely notice
to Company as provided herein.

 

    5

     

    

 

8.2 With respect to any Claim
for or as to which Company may be required to indemnify Indemnitee (or as to which Company has assumed the defense of Indemnitee as provided
hereinafter), Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with Company in the defense of any such Claim and will provide to Company such information
and documents as Company may reasonably require to the extent that Indemnitee is in possession of or has the power to access and obtain
such information and documents.

 

9. Selection of Counsel.

 

9.1 In the event that Company
is obligated to indemnify Indemnitee for the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim, Company shall be entitled,
at its election and upon giving written notice to Indemnitee, to assume the defense of such Claim with counsel selected by Company and
approved by Indemnitee (with such approval not unreasonably withheld or delayed by Indemnitee).

 

9.2 Upon Company’s
election to assume the defense of any Claim as provided herein (and counsel has been retained by Company in connection therewith), Company
shall have no further obligation to pay Indemnitee for attorneys’ fees incurred by Indemnitee with respect to such Claim. Notwithstanding
Company’s assumption of the defense of any such Claim, Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel with respect to
such Claim at Indemnitee’s expense. In addition thereto, Company shall dispense with the counsel it has retained (with Indemnitee’s
consent) and shall pay the fees and charges of Indemnitee’s separate counsel if (a) Company agrees to do so in writing, or (b) Indemnitee
and its separate counsel has determined that a conflict of interest may exist between Company and Indemnitee in conducting the defense
of any Claim.

 

10. Exclusions from Indemnity.

 

10.1 Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, Company shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee or pay the Expenses of Indemnitee in or with
respect to any of the following:

 

(a) Any Claims (and
the Expenses incurred in connection therewith) that are initiated or asserted by Indemnitee and not by way of defense of any Claim, except
for claims, actions, suits or proceedings initiated by Indemnitee (1) to enforce his/her indemnification rights under this Agreement or
other agreement or insurance policy, or under the Articles or Bylaws, (2) with the prior authorization or approval of the Board of Directors,
or (3) as otherwise may be required under the Nevada Corporation Law to establish Indemnitee’s right to indemnity or payment of
Expenses (and regardless of its outcome or ultimate disposition).

 

(b) Any claims asserted
or any action, suit or proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce the terms of this Agreement if a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that any such claim, action, suit or proceeding was not asserted or instituted by Indemnitee in good faith or is otherwise
determined to be frivolous or without any legitimate basis in fact or law. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly stated that the
Company is obligated to indemnify Executive for claims to enforce the terms of this Agreement that are brought in good faith and are non-frivolous.

 

(c) Any acts, omissions,
activities or other transactions conducted by Indemnitee for or as to which Indemnitee may not be indemnified or relieved of liability
under applicable law.

 

    6

     

    

 

(d) Any Claims (and
the Expenses paid in connection therewith) if it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment or order that (1) such payments were
made in violation of applicable law, (2) Indemnitee must make an accounting of profits from Indemnitee’s purchase and sale of Company’s
securities under or pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or a similar provision under federal or state law,
or (3) Indemnitee’s acts, actions or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, including any
determination that Indemnitee defrauded or stole from Company, misappropriated confidential or proprietary information or the trade secrets
of Company, or otherwise converted the assets or properties of Company to his/her own personal use or benefit.

 

(e) Settlement of any Claim, or any amounts
paid in settlement of any Claim, without Company’s written consent.

 

11. Exclusion; Potential Liability
Under Securities Laws.

 

Notwithstanding any provision
in this Agreement, Company shall not be required or obligated to indemnify Indemnitee under any Claim (or pay the Expenses in connection
therewith) to the extent that such indemnity and payment of Expenses (a) will violate the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or the rules
and regulations thereunder, respectively, or any registration statement filed by Company under the Securities Act, or any public policy
relating thereto, or (b) will require Company, to achieve compliance with the undertakings required in paragraph (h) of Item 512 of Regulation
S-K, to submit to a court of competent jurisdiction any issue regarding whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act.

 

12. Statute of Limitations; Claims
in the Right of Company.

 

No civil action or proceeding
shall be asserted, initiated or brought by or in the right of Company against Indemnitee or his/her estate, spouse, heirs, executors or
personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two (2) years from the date on which any Claim (or any claim or cause of action
asserted therein) arose or accrued under applicable law, and any such claim or cause of action shall be time-barred, extinguished and
deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a civil action or proceeding within such two-year period; provided, however,
in the event that any shorter statute or period of limitations is or becomes applicable to any such claim or cause of action under applicable
law, the shorter statute or period of limitations shall govern.

 

13. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

 

13.1 Governing Law.
This Agreement, including the validity, substance, interpretation and enforcement thereof, shall be governed in all respects by the laws
of the State of Nevada without regard to its conflicts of laws or choice of laws principles.

 

13.2 Dispute Resolution; Arbitration.

 

(a) At the option of Company
or Executive, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute, controversy or question arising under, based on or relating
to this Agreement, or any breach or failure to comply with the terms hereof (each a “Dispute”), shall be finally and
exclusively resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its
Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, arbitration of any Dispute
shall be conducted before a single arbitrator selected by the Parties and the forum and venue for such arbitration shall be AAA’s
Los Angeles Regional Center in Los Angeles, California. Each Party hereby submits to AAA and the selected forum for the arbitration of
any Dispute, waives any objection to the venue of such arbitration, and agrees that service of process and other notices, pleadings and
documents in any arbitration or proceeding hereunder may be delivered to a Party in accordance with the provisions governing “Notices”
in this Agreement.

 

    7

     

    

 

(b) If the Parties are unable
to agree upon a neutral arbitrator within thirty (30) days after a Party notifies the other Party in writing of its intent to submit a
Dispute to arbitration, either Party may apply to AAA for the appointment of an arbitrator or, if AAA is not then in existence or declines
to act, either Party may apply to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of any county in the State of California for the appointment
of a neutral arbitrator to hear the Parties and settle the Dispute and such Judge is hereby authorized to make such appointment.

 

(c) If the Parties so agree
in writing, and subject to the consent of the single arbitrator, hearings and proceedings conducted in the arbitration of any Dispute
hereunder may be conducted remotely by secure video conferencing technology that is acceptable to the Parties.

 

(d) The decision or award
of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall set forth detailed reasoning for the award. Discovery shall be conducted expeditiously,
bearing in mind the objective of limiting discovery and expediting the decision or award of the arbitrator at the most reasonable cost
and expense to the Parties. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and no action at law
or in equity shall be instituted or, if instituted, prosecuted by either Party other than to enforce the award of the arbitrator. Judgment
upon an award rendered pursuant to such arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction or application may be made to such
court for a judicial acceptance of the award and/or an order of enforcement, as the case may be.

 

13.3 Extraordinary Relief.

 

The rights of the Parties under
this Agreement are of a special, unique and intellectual character which gives them a unique value, and a breach of any provision of this
Agreement (including in particular the provisions contained in Articles 5.0 and 6.0) will cause the Parties irreparable economic harm
or damage that cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in an action at law. Accordingly, without limiting any right
or remedy that either Party may have under this Agreement or applicable law, or otherwise, the Parties agree that they each shall be entitled
to seek injunctive and other extraordinary relief to enforce and protect their respective rights granted under this Agreement, whether
through arbitration or litigation as provided herein, without any requirement that either Party post a bond or other security.

 

13.4 Expenses of Enforcement.

 

The prevailing Party in any

paid by the non-prevailing Party.

of this Agreement or as subsequently modified by written notice by a Party to the other Party.

15.1 Amendment, Waiver
& Termination. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or cancellation of this Agreement shall be effective unless
it is in writing and signed by each Party. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be or shall constitute

This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the Parties and supersedes and merges all previous written and oral negotiations,
commitments, understandings and agreements relating to the subject matter hereof between the Parties.

EXHIBIT B

 

CALIFORNIA LABOR CODE SECTION 2870

 

(a) Any
provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an
invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using
the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either:

 

		(1)	Relate at the time of conception
or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development
of the employer; or

 

		(2)	Result from any work performed
by the employee for the employer.

 

(b) To
the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being
required to be assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.
