 Exhibit 10.10 
 EXECUTION COPY 
 AGREEMENT NOT-TO-COMPETE 
 This Agreement Not-To-Compete (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 1, 2007, by and between Geospatial Mapping
Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Mark A. Smith (the “Employee”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Employment Agreement dated as of even
date herewith between the Company and the Employee (the “Employment Agreement”). 
 WHEREAS, the Employee is employed by the
Company; 
 WHEREAS, in the course of the Employee’s employment, the Employee will obtain extensive knowledge of and experience in the
business conducted by the Company; 
 WHEREAS, the Employee will enjoy extensive high level contacts with customers and prospective customers
of the Company and will have access to confidential and proprietary information of the Company; 
 WHEREAS, the Company has entered into the
Employment Agreement with the Employee in consideration for the Employee entering into this Agreement; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of
the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Confidential Information. 
 (a) The Employee acknowledges that (i) during employment by, and as a result of the Employee’s relationship with, the Company, the Employee will
obtain knowledge of and gain access to information regarding the business, operations, products, proposed products, production methods, processes, customer lists, advertising, marketing and promotional plans and materials, price lists, pricing
policies, financial information and other trade secrets of the Company, other confidential information of, and material proprietary to, the Company or designated as being confidential by the Company which is not generally known to persons outside of
the Company, including information and material originated, discovered or developed in whole or in part by the Employee (collectively referred to herein as “Confidential Information”), (ii) the direct and indirect disclosure of any
such Confidential Information to existing or potential competitors of the Company would place the Company at a competitive disadvantage and would do damage, monetary or otherwise, to the business of the Company; and (iii) the engaging by the
Employee in any of the activities prohibited by this Section 1 may constitute improper appropriation and/or use of such information and trade secrets. The Employee expressly acknowledges the trade secret status of the Confidential Information
and that the Confidential Information constitutes a protectable business interest of one or more members of the Company. Accordingly, the Employee agrees that during the Period of Employment with the Company (or any member thereof) and, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, thereafter, the Employee will, in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company, hold all Confidential Information strictly in confidence and will not directly or indirectly reveal, report, disclose, publish or
transfer any of such Confidential Information to any person, firm or

EXECUTION COPY 
  
 
other entity, or utilize any of the Confidential Information for any purpose, except in furtherance of the Employee’s employment with the Company or
with any member of the Company or as may be required by law. 
 (b) Proprietary Interest. All inventions, designs, improvements,
patents, copyrights and discoveries conceived by the Employee during the Period of Employment that are useful in or directly or indirectly related to the business of any member of the Company, or to any experimental work carried on by any member of
the Company, shall be the property of the Company. The Employee will promptly and fully disclose to the Company all such inventions, designs, improvements, patents, copyrights and discoveries (whether developed individually or with other persons)
and shall take all steps necessary and reasonably required to assure the Company’s ownership thereof and to assist the Company in protecting or defending proprietary rights therein of the Company and/or the appropriate member of the Company.

 (c) Return of Materials. The Employee expressly acknowledges that all lists, books, records and other Confidential Information of
the Company obtained in connection with the business of any member of the Company is the exclusive property of the Company and the appropriate member of the Company and that upon the termination of the Period of Employment, or earlier if so
requested by the Company, the Employee will immediately surrender and return to the Company all such items and all other property belonging to any member of the Company then in the possession of the Employee, and the Employee shall not make or
retain any copies thereof. 
 2. Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation. 
 (a) The Employee agrees that during the Period of Employment and for a period of twelve full months following the Date of Termination (the
“Non-Compete Period”), the Employee will not, directly or indirectly, individually or otherwise, engage in a business competing with any of the businesses conducted by any member of the Company any where in the United States, nor without
the prior written consent of the Board directly or indirectly have any interest in, own, manage, operate, control, be connected with as a stockholder, joint venturer, lender, officer, employee, partner or consultant, or otherwise engage, invest or
participate in any business that is competitive with any of the businesses conducted by any member of the Company; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 2(a) shall prevent the Employee from being the registered or
beneficial owner of up to 2% of any class of the capital stock of a corporation registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Employee further agrees that during the Non-Compete Period the Employee will not, in any manner,
directly or indirectly, for the Employee’s benefit or for the benefit of any other person, firm or entity, (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of any member of the Company to terminate or abandon his or her employment with any
such member for any purpose whatsoever, (2) solicit from any customer doing business with any member of the Company during the Non-Compete Period, business of the same or similar nature to the business of any member of the Company with such
customer, or (3) otherwise interfere with the business or accounts of any member of the Company.

 (b) As consideration for the Employee’s agreement to the provisions of Sections 1 and 2(a), the Company has entered into the
Employment Agreement with Employee. 
 3. Injunctive Relief. The Employee acknowledges that a breach of the covenants contained in
Section 1 or Section 2 hereof shall cause irreparable damage to the Company, the exact amount of which shall be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach shall be inadequate. Accordingly, the Employee agrees
that, notwithstanding any provision of the Employment Agreement to the contrary, if the Employee breaches any of the covenants contained in Section 1 or Section 2 hereof, then the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition
to any other remedy or remedies available to the Company at law or in equity. 
 4. Notices. All notices and other communications
given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made the second business day after the date of mailing, if delivered by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid; upon delivery, if sent
by hand delivery; upon delivery, if sent by prepaid courier, with a record of receipt; or the next day after the date of dispatch, if sent by cable, telegram, facsimile or telecopy (with a copy simultaneously sent by registered or certified mail,

 Exhibit 10.11 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 BETWEEN 
 Richard Nieman 
 AND 
 GEOSPATIAL MAPPING SYSTEMS, INC. 

 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), by and between GEOSPATIAL MAPPING SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Richard Nieman (the “Executive”) is
entered into as of December 1, 2007 (the “Employment Date”). In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, the Company and the Executive hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Employment. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive, and the Executive agrees to continue to serve the Company, in the
capacities described in Section 3 of this Agreement, during the Period of Employment (as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement), in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 2. Period of Employment. The term “Period of Employment” shall mean the period which commenced on the Employment Date and,
unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 6, ends on November 30, 2010. 
 3. Duties During the Period of
Employment. 
 3.1 Duties. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall be employed as the Executive VP/Business
Development of the Company or other position as assigned by the President. 
 3.2 Scope. Throughout the Period of Employment, and
excluding any periods of vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is entitled, the Executive shall devote substantially all of his business time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company. It shall not be a violation of this
Agreement for the Executive to (a) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, (b) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach occasional courses or seminars at educational institutions, or (c) manage
personal investments and engage in any other activities, so long as such activities under clauses (a), (b) and (c) do not interfere, in any significant respect, with the Executive’s responsibilities hereunder or otherwise violate this
Agreement or the Agreement Not to Compete executed and delivered by the Executive pursuant to the provisions of Section 12. 
 4.
Compensation and Other Payments. 
 4.1 Salary. During the Period of Employment, the Executive’s Base Salary shall
initially be at the rate of One Hundred Twenty Thousand Dollars ($120,000) per year (the “Base Salary”). 
 4.2 Stock
Options. The Company hereby grants to the Executive a ten (10) year stock option award with respect to one million (1,000,000) shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of fifty cents ($0.50) per share. This option
award (a) is a non-qualified option granted under the 2007 Stock Option Plan of the Company dated December 1, 2007, (b) shall be fully vested and exercisable immediately upon grant, and (c) shall be further documented by an
option agreement in the form customarily used by the Company for non-qualified option awards under that plan, but with all terms consistent with this Agreement. 

 4.3 Other Compensation. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to
participate, at a level and on a basis commensurate with the Executive’s position and responsibilities, in any and all supplemental compensation plans or arrangements established by the Company for its senior executives, including but not
limited to any equity-based incentive compensation plans or arrangements. 
 5. Other Executive Benefits. 
 5.1 Business Expenses. Subject to the Executive’s compliance with the policies and procedures approved by the Board and applicable to all
senior executives of the Company, the Company shall promptly reimburse the Executive for all expenses and disbursements reasonably incurred by the Executive in the performance of his duties hereunder during the Period of Employment. 
 5.2 Benefit Plans. The Executive and his eligible family members shall be entitled, subject to any normally applicable waiting periods and
eligibility criteria, to participate, on terms no less favorable to the Executive than the terms offered to other senior executives of the Company, in any group and/or executive life, hospitalization or disability insurance plan, health program,
pension, profit sharing, 401(k) and similar benefit plans (qualified, non-qualified and supplemental) or other fringe benefits (it being understood that items such as stock options and other equity awards are not fringe benefits) of the Company
(collectively referred to as the “Benefits”). Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Benefits described herein shall not duplicate benefits made available to the Executive pursuant to any other provision of
this Agreement. 
 5.3 Holidays and Vacation. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to the same
paid holidays as other employees of the Company. The Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation and other absences from work that are reasonably consistent with the performance of the Executive’s duties as provided in this Agreement. Such
vacations and absences shall be consistent with those generally provided to other senior executives of the Company. 
 5.4 Company
Automobile. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall be reimbursed for use of an automobile in accordance with a policy approved by the Board. 
 6. Termination. 
 6.1 Death. The Period of Employment shall terminate automatically
upon the Executive’s death. 
 6.2 Disability. If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has
occurred (pursuant to the definition of “Disability” set forth below), it may give to the Executive written notice of its intention to terminate the Executive’s employment. In such event, the Period of Employment shall terminate
effective on the 30th day 

  

 -2- 

 
after receipt by the Executive of such written notice given at any time after a period of 120 consecutive days of Disability or a period of 180 days of
Disability within any 12 consecutive months, and, in either case, while such Disability is continuing (“Disability Effective Date”). The Disability Effective Date shall not occur if the Executive returns to performance of the
Executive’s duties as contemplated in this Agreement within 30 days after receipt of such notice. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means the Executive’s inability to substantially perform his duties hereunder,
with reasonable accommodation, as evidenced by a certificate signed either by a physician mutually acceptable to the Company and the Executive or, if the Company and the Executive cannot agree upon a physician, by a physician selected by agreement
of a physician designated by the Company and a physician designated by the Executive; provided, however, that if such physicians cannot agree upon a third physician within 30 days, such third physician shall be designated by the American Arbitration
Association. Until the Disability Effective Date, the Executive shall be entitled to all compensation and benefits provided for under Sections 4 and 5 hereof. It is understood that nothing in this Section 6.2 shall serve to limit the
Company’s obligations under Section 7.3, below. 
 6.3 By the Company for Cause. During the Period of Employment, the
Company may terminate the Executive’s employment immediately for “Cause.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means (a) a material breach of this Agreement by the Executive or the gross neglect of the
Executive’s duties hereunder (after the provision to the Executive by the Company of written notice reasonably specifying the breach and/or performance deficiency and thirty (30) days to cure such breach), (b) the Executive’s
willful misconduct or gross negligence, which is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company monetarily or otherwise, or (c) the Executive’s engaging in egregious misconduct involving serious moral turpitude to the extent that the
Executive’s credibility and reputation no longer conforms to the standards of employees of the Company employed in a similar level or position. For purposes of this definition, no act or failure to act on the part of the Executive shall be
considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interest of the Company. Any act, or failure to act,
based upon direction given in a resolution duly adopted by the Board or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best interest of the
Company. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Company may not terminate the Executive’s employment for Cause, and any purported termination by the Company of Executive’s employment shall be presumed other than for Cause, unless (i)a
determination that Cause exists is made and approved by at least a 3/4ths majority of the Board, (ii) the Executive is given at least seven (7) days written notice of the Board meeting called to make such determination, including written
notice of the particulars purporting to establish Cause and (iii) the Executive and his legal counsel are given the opportunity to address that meeting. 
 6.4 By Executive for Good Reason. During the Period of Employment, the Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Executive for Good Reason upon (30) days’ written notice. For
purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” means, without the Executive’s written consent, (a) any material breach of this Agreement by the Company (after the provision to the Company by the Executive of written notice
reasonably specifying the breach and/or performance deficiency and thirty (30) days to cure such breach), or (b) any termination by the Executive during the period of six (6) months immediately following the occurrence of a Change of
Control, as defined in Section 8, below. 
  

 -3- 

 6.5 Other than for Cause or Good Reason. The Executive or the Company may terminate this
Agreement for any reason other than for Good Reason or Cause, respectively, upon 30 days’ written notice to the Company or the Executive, as the case may be. 
 6.6 Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company or by the Executive shall be communicated by a Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 18.2 of this
Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (a) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (b) sets forth in reasonable detail, if
applicable, the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, and (c) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of
such notice, specifies the Date of Termination. The failure by the Executive or Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of the basis for termination shall not waive any right of such
party hereunder or preclude such party from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing his or its rights hereunder. 
 6.7 Date of
Termination. “Date of Termination” means the date specified in the Notice of Termination; provided, however, that if the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the
date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be. 
 7. Obligations of the Company Upon
Termination. The following provisions of this Section 7 describe the entire obligations of the Company to the Executive upon termination of his employment under this Agreement. 
 7.1 Termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive’s Resignation without Good Reason. In the event the Period of Employment terminates
by reason of the termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause, or by reason of the resignation of the Executive other than for Good Reason, the Company shall pay to the Executive all Accrued Obligations. “Accrued
Obligations” shall mean, as of the Date of Termination, the sum of (a) the Executive’s Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid, (b) the amount of any bonus, incentive compensation,
deferred compensation and other cash compensation earned by the Executive as of the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid, and (c) any vacation pay, expense reimbursements and other cash entitlements earned by the Executive as
of the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid. 
 7.2 Death. If the Period of Employment is terminated by death, the
Executive’s beneficiaries shall be paid the Accrued Obligations. In addition, all equity awards granted to the Executive by the Company that have not yet vested shall fully vest on the Date of Termination; and all vested options (whether
previously vested or vesting under this sentence) shall remain exercisable for a period equal to their full original terms. 
  

 -4- 

 7.3 Disability. If the Period of Employment is terminated because of Disability, the Executive
shall be paid the Accrued Obligations. In addition, all equity awards granted to the Executive by the Company that have not yet vested shall fully vest on the Date of Termination; and all vested options (whether previously vested or vesting under
this sentence) shall remain exercisable for a period equal to their full original terms. 
 7.4 Resignation with Good Reason or
Termination without Cause. If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment other than for Cause (and other than due to the Executive’s Disability), or if the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, the Executive shall
receive, in addition to payment of the Accrued Obligations, the following: 
 7.4.1 A lump sum cash payment in an amount equal to the number of months remaining in the Period of Employment multiplied by the sum of (a) 1/12th of the Executive’s annual Base Salary on the Date of Termination (without regard to any reduction in Base Salary not approved by the Executive). 
 7.4.2 Immediate vesting in all equity awards granted to the Executive by the Company but not yet vested as of the Date of Termination;

 7.4.3 Continued exercisability, for a period equal to their full original terms, for all vested options, whether previously vested
or vesting under subsection 7.5.2; 
 7.4.4 For a period of 12 months after the Date of Termination, the Company shall continue
health, prescription drug, dental, disability and life insurance benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible family members at least equal to those which would have been provided to them in accordance with Section 5.2 of this
Agreement if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated (provided that any benefits provided under this subsection 7.4.4 are subject to immediate early termination if the Executive becomes eligible to receive similar types of benefits
through subsequent employment). 
 7.5 Release. Any and all compensation and benefits payable pursuant to Section 7.4, above,
beyond payments of the Accrued Obligations shall be payable only if the Executive delivers to the Company a general release, in a form reasonably prescribed by the Company, of all claims of the Executive arising up to the date of the release; and
such release shall be delivered by the Executive within twenty-one (21) days after presentation thereof to the Executive by the Company. 
 7.6 Exclusive Rights. It is understood that the Executive’s rights under this Section 7 are in lieu of all other rights which the Executive may otherwise have had upon termination of employment under this Agreement.

 7.7 No Right of Set-Off. The Company shall have no right to reduce, because of any debt or financial obligation of the Executive
to the Company, the amount of any compensation or benefit otherwise payable by the Company to the Executive under this Agreement or under any other plan, policy, arrangement or practice of the Company. 
  

 -5- 

 8. Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in
Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if: 
 8.1 Change in Ownership. Any “person” (as defined in
Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 19434, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), excluding for this purpose, (a) the Executive, (b) the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or (c) any employee
benefit plan of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company, or any person or entity organized, appointed or established by the Company for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities of the
Company, is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act). Directly or indirectly of securities of the Company representing more than thirty percent (30%) of the combined voting power of the
Company’s then outstanding securities; provided, however, that no Change of Control will be deemed to have occurred as a result of a change in ownership percentage resulting from an acquisition of securities by the Company; or 
 8.2 Change in Board. During any twenty-four (24) consecutive months, individuals who at the beginning of such twenty four (24) month
period constitute the Board of Directors of the Company and any new directors (except for any director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described elsewhere in this definition of Change
of Control) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the
period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved (such individuals and any such new directors being referred to as the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; or

 8.3 Business Combination. Consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, or sale or disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company (a “Business Combination”), in each case, unless following such Business Combination, all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of outstanding
voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty-five percent (55%) of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity which, as a result of such transaction, owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets
either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; or 
 8.4 Liquidation. Consummation of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 
 9. Taxes. In the event that the aggregate of all payments or benefits made or provided to, or that may be made or provided
to, the Executive under this Agreement and under all other plans, programs and arrangements of the Company (the “Aggregate Payment”) is determined to constitute an “excess parachute payment,” as such term is defined in
Section 280G(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company shall pay to the Executive prior to the time 

  

 -6- 

 
any excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Excise Tax”) is payable with respect to such Aggregate Payment, an
additional amount which, after the imposition of all income and excise taxes thereon, is equal to the Excise Tax on the Aggregate Payment. The determination of whether the Aggregate Payment constitutes an excess parachute payment and, if so, the
amount to be provided to the Executive and the time of payment pursuant to this Section 8 shall be made by an independent auditor (the “Auditor”) jointly selected by the Company and the Executive and paid by the Company. The Auditor
shall be a nationally recognized United States public accounting firm which has not, during the two (2) years immediately preceding the date of its selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company or any affiliate thereof. If the Executive
and the Company cannot agree on the firm to serve as the Auditor, then the Executive and the Company shall each select one accounting firm and those two firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the amount of the Executive’s Excise Tax liability is subsequently determined to be greater than the Excise Tax liability with respect to which any initial payment to the Executive under this Section 8 has been
made, the Company shall pay to the Executive an additional amount (grossed up for all taxes), with respect to such additional Excise Tax (and any interest and penalties thereon) at the time and in the amount reasonably determined by the Auditor.
Similarly, if the amount of the Executive’s Excise Tax liability is subsequently determined to be less than the Excise Tax liability with respect to which any prior payment to the Executive has been made under this Section 8, the Executive
shall refund to the Company the excess amount received, after reduction for any nonrefundable tax, penalties and/or interest incurred by the Executive in connection with the receipt of such excess, and such refund shall be paid promptly after the
Executive has received any corresponding refund of excess Excise Tax paid to the Internal Revenue Service. The Executive and the Company shall cooperate with each other in connection with any proceeding or claim relating to the existence or amount
of liability for Excise Tax, and all expenses incurred by the Executive in connection therewith shall be paid by the Company promptly upon notice of demand from the Executive. 
 10. Mitigation. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts
payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise set forth herein with respect to health, prescription drug, dental, disability and life insurance benefits, any severance benefits payable to the Executive
shall not be subject to reduction for any compensation received from other employment. 
 11. Indemnification. The Executive shall be
indemnified by the Company against liability as an officer and director of the Company and any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. To the full extent permitted under the corporate governing
documents of the Company, and subject to the terms of any policies and procedures applicable to all directors and senior officers of the Company, the Company shall advance to the Executive payment of reasonable costs of defending against any claims
covered by the foregoing indemnification commitment. The Executive’s rights under this Section 10 shall continue so long as he may be subject to such liability, whether or not this Agreement may have terminated prior thereto. 

12. Confidential Information and Trade Secrets. As a condition to the Company’s obligations hereunder, the Executive shall execute and
deliver to the Company an Agreement Not to Compete in the form attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement. The Company hereby acknowledges receipt of an Agreement Not to Compete executed by the Executive. 
  

 -7- 

 13. Withholding. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments required
to be made by the Company hereunder to the Executive shall be subject to withholding at the time payments are actually made to the Executive and received by him of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may reasonably determine it should
withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. In lieu of withholding such amounts, in whole or in part, the Company may, in its sole discretion, accept other provision for payment of taxes as required by law, provided that it is satisfied
that all requirements of law as to its responsibilities to withhold such taxes have been satisfied. 
 14. Arbitration. Any dispute or
controversy between the Company and the Executive arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other than a dispute arising out of or related to the Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information and Trade Secrets Agreement, shall be settled by
arbitration conducted under the rules of (but not necessarily administered by) the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect, and judgment
on any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any arbitration shall be held before a single arbitrator who shall be selected by the agreement of the Company and the Executive, unless the parties are
unable to agree to an arbitrator, in which case the arbitrator will be selected under the procedures of the AAA. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could order or grant,
including, without limitation, the issuance of an injunction. Either party may, without inconsistency with this arbitration provision, apply to any court having jurisdiction over the parties and seek interim provisional, injunctive or other interim
equitable relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Except as necessary in court proceedings to enforce this arbitration provision or an award rendered hereunder, or to obtain interim relief, neither a
party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company and the Executive. The Company and the Executive acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a
transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding any choice of law provision included in this Agreement, the United States Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. The
arbitration proceeding shall be conducted in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania or such other location to which the parties may agree. The Company shall pay the costs of any arbitrator appointed hereunder.
