	10.	No Agency Created. 

  

	 	A.	For the protection of both Verdisys and Licensee, the relationship created by this Agreement between Verdisys and Licensee is not that of principal and agent, and under no
circumstances shall either party be considered an agent of the other. 

  

	 	B.	Licensee is, and shall remain, an independent contractor, and Licensee alone shall be answerable for any loss or damage caused by it or its employees or agents. Licensee may, if it
wishes, indicate in its advertising and on its stationery that it is an authorized Verdisys licensee, provided that Licensee clearly understands and states that it is separately owned and operated. 

  

	 	C.	Verdisys does not authorize Licensee to represent itself as Verdisys, or does Verdisys authorize Licensee to pledge the credit of Verdisys, or enter into any contract for Verdisys,
nor does Verdisys convey to Licensee any property interest in Verdisys’ name, trademarks, or patents. 

  

	11.	This agreement may not be assigned by Licensee except as provided in Section 5, Subsection - C - i. 

  

	12.	Commercial Arrangements. Licensee shall provide Verdisys with an opportunity to match any quote for any additional rigs, equipment rental, or other types of service work
entered into by Edge Capital in the execution of their joint programs. The option to contract Verdisys is at Edge Capital’s sole option. 

  

	13.	Former Agreement. Except as stated herein, all prior or contemporaneous written or oral statement, arrangements, or agreements regarding the License are merged into and
superseded by this Agreement. 

  

	14.	Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, or unenforceable, or is not enforced, this Agreement shall be considered divisible as to such
provisions, and the remainder of the Agreement valid and binding as though such provision were not included in this Agreement. 

  

 5 

	15.	Prevailing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Texas. Jurisdiction for any dispute arising out of any term
or matter related to this License and any sub-licenses shall be the courts of Texas. 

  

	16.	Arbitration 

  

	 	A.	All disputes under this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration at such time pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration may be commenced at any
time by any Party hereto giving written notice to the other Party that a dispute has been referred to arbitration under this Section. Each Party shall each appoint one individual as an arbitrator and the two individuals so appointed shall select
another individual to serve as the third and final member of the arbitration panel. Any award rendered by the arbitrators shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties provided, however, that any such award shall be accompanied by a written
opinion of the arbitrators giving the reasons for the award. This provision for arbitration shall be specifically enforceable by the Parties, and the decision of the arbitrators in accordance herewith shall be final and binding and there shall be no
right to appeal therefrom. Each Party shall pay its own expenses of arbitration and the expenses of the arbitrators shall be equally shared; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the arbitrators any position or claim of a Party or any defense
or objection thereto was unreasonable, the arbitrators may assess, as part of their award, all or any part of the arbitration expenses of the other Party (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and fees of the arbitrators) against the Party
raising such unreasonable position, claim, defense or objection. 

  

	 	B.	To the extent that arbitration may not be legally permitted hereunder and the Parties to any dispute hereunder may not at the time of such dispute mutually agree to submit such
dispute to arbitration, any Party may commence a civil action in a court of appropriate jurisdiction to solve disputes hereunder. Nothing contained in this Section shall prevent the Parties from settling any dispute by mutual agreement at any time.

  

	17.	Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for failure to perform its part of this Agreement when the failure is due to fire, floods, strikes, or other industrial
disturbances, inevitable accident, war, riot, insurrection, act of terrorism or other causes beyond the control of the party claiming force majeure. The party most affected shall act diligently to remove the force majeure condition at the earliest
practicable time. In no event shall financial inability to pay be considered force majeure; nor shall force majeure excuse any party’s obligation to pay pursuant to this Agreement, any sums for which such party became obligated prior to the
occurrence of the force majeure event.  

  

 6 

	18.	Compliance with Law. 

  

	 	A.	Licensee agrees that it will not violate any applicable law or regulation of any country, state, or political subdivision thereof in performing or purporting to perform any act
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. 

  

	 	B.	Pursuant to the above-stated obligation, Licensee agrees to maintain such records as required by applicable laws and regulations, and to provide all written assurances required by
Verdisys in connection with such laws and regulations. 

  

	19.	Environmental and Occupational Regulations. It is Licensee’s obligation to insure that all environmental and work place regulations applicable to Licensee, either
Federal, State or local, are adhered to and that any conditions set by environmental or occupational regulatory agencies such as EPA or OSHA are met by Licensee. 

  

	20.	Indemnification. 

  

	 	A.	Licensee agrees to hold Verdisys harmless, and to indemnify and defend Verdisys for all claims, loses and liabilities (“Losses”), that may occur as the result of
Licensee’s acts or omissions under this Agreement or otherwise, or arising out of or resulting from the use proper or improper, of the Verdisys Horizontal Technology, or from the negligence or willful misconduct of Licensee or Licensee’s
personnel, or of its sub-licensees or assignees. 

  

	 	B.	ATTORNEY FEES. THE SUCCESSFUL PARTY IN ANY LITIGATION SHALL RECOVER ITS ATTORNEY FEES AND RELATED LITIGATION EXPENSES, INCLUDING TIME AND TRAVEL. IN THE EVENT OF THIRD PARTY
LITIGATION INVOLVING THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE USE OF THIS TECHNOLOGY, IF IT IS ADJUDICATED THAT ONE OF THE PARTIES OF THIS AGREEMENT IS AT FAULT, THE OTHER PARTY SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED BY THE THIRD PARTY AT FAULT FOR ITS REASONABLE ATTORNEY FEES, COSTS,
AND LITIGATION RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING TIME AND TRAVEL EXPENSES. 

  

	21.	No Liability on Termination. The right to termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement is absolute and Verdisys shall not incur any liability by
reason of such termination. Licensee shall release Verdisys and Landers from damages and from any claim of any nature (including but not limited to damages sustained on account of loss of prospective commission or profits, or on investments,
contracts, leases, or other commitments) resulting from or arising out of such termination, provided, however, that nothing in this section shall be construed as a release of any obligation that shall have accrued prior to the effective date of such
termination and that is preserved pursuant to this Agreement.
