within 90 days following the initial existence of such condition, that such Good Reason exists and setting forth in detail the
grounds the Executive believes constitutes Good Reason. If the Corporation does not cure the conditions constituting Good Reason
within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice thereof from the Executive, then Executive’s employment shall be
deemed terminated for Good Reason.

less withholding of all applicable taxes, at such times he would have received them if there was no termination;; (ii)

compensation and vacation pay through the date of termination and any other benefits accrued to him under any Benefit Plans
outstanding at such time and the reimbursement of documented, unreimbursed expenses incurred prior to such date. In the event

9.
Miscellaneous.

 

(a)
The Executive acknowledges that the services to be rendered by him under the provisions of this Agreement are of a special,
unique and extraordinary character and that it would be difficult or impossible to replace such services. Accordingly, the
Executive agrees that any breach or threatened breach by him of Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement shall entitle the
Corporation, in addition to all other legal remedies available to it, to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to seek
to enjoin such breach or threatened breach. The parties understand and intend that each restriction agreed to by the
Executive hereinabove shall be construed as separable and divisible from every other restriction, that the unenforceability
of any restriction shall not limit the enforceability, in whole or in part, of any other restriction, and that one or more or
all of such restrictions may be enforced in whole or in part as the circumstances warrant. In the event that any restriction
in this Agreement is more restrictive than permitted by law in the jurisdiction in which the Corporation seeks enforcement
thereof, such restriction shall be limited to the extent permitted by law. The remedy of injunctive relief herein set forth
shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies that the Corporation may have at law or in
equity.

 

(b)
Neither the Executive nor the Corporation may assign or delegate any of their rights or duties under this Agreement without
the express written consent of the other; provided however that the Corporation shall have the right to delegate its
obligation of payment of all sums due to the Executive hereunder, provided that such delegation shall not relieve the
Corporation of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

(c)
This Agreement constitutes and embodies the full and complete understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the
Executive’s employment by the Corporation, supersedes all prior understandings and agreements, whether oral or written,
between the Executive and the Corporation, and shall not be amended, modified or changed except by an instrument in writing
executed by the party to be charged. The invalidity or partial invalidity of one or more provisions of this Agreement shall
not invalidate any other provision of this Agreement. No waiver by either party of any provision or condition to be performed
shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same time or any prior or subsequent
time.

 

    	5

    	 

    

  

(d)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, be binding upon and enforceable against, the parties hereto and their
respective successors, heirs, beneficiaries and permitted assigns.

 

(e)
The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

 

(f)
All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered, sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or by private overnight mail service (e.g. Federal Express) to the party at the address set forth
above or to such other address as either party may hereafter give notice of in accordance with the provisions hereof. Notices
shall be deemed given on the sooner of the date actually received or the third business day after sending.

 

(g)
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without
reference to principles of conflicts of laws and each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and
venue of the federal and state courts located in the State of New York.

 

(h)
This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all
of which together shall constitute one of the same instrument. The parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date
set forth above.

 

10.
Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control (as hereinafter defined), the Executive shall receive all monies and compensation
due for the term of this contract. This contract will be enforceable but the duties and responsibilities may change for the executive
subject to mutual agreement between the Executive and the new ownership or the executive may exercise his termination clause and
be entitled to all compensation as stated above. The Executive (or his estate) shall receive all payments provided herein at such
times as he would have received them if there was no Change of Control.

 

For
purposes of this Agreement “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:

 

(a)
Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
of securities of the Corporation representing 50% or more of the total voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding
voting securities or 50% or more of the fair market value of the Corporation;

 

Or

 

(c)
The Corporation has sold all or substantially all of its assets to another person or entity that is not a majority-owned subsidiary
of the Corporation.

 

    	6

    	 

    

  

Notwithstanding
the preceding, the above-listed events must satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) in order to
be deemed a Change of Control.

 

11.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

(a)
In the event the Executive or the Corporation is the subject of an investigation (whether criminal, civil, or administrative)
involving possible violations of the United States federal securities laws by the Executive, the Compensation Committee or the
Board may, in its sole discretion, direct the Corporation to withhold any and all payments to the Executive (whether compensation
or otherwise) which would have otherwise been made pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise would have been paid or payable by
the Corporation, which the Compensation Committee or the Board believes, in its sole discretion, may or could be considered an
“extraordinary payment” and therefore at risk and potentially subject to, the provisions of Section 1103 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (“SOX”) (including, but not limited to, any severance payments made to the Executive upon termination
of employment). The withholding of any payment shall be until such time as the investigation is concluded, without charges having
been brought or until the successful conclusion of any legal proceedings brought in connection with such amounts as directed by
the Compensation Committee or the Board to be withheld with or without the accruing of interest (and if with interest the rate
thereof). Except by an admission of wrongdoing or the final adjudication by a court or administrative agency finding the Executive
liable for or guilty of violating any of the federal securities laws, rules or regulations, the Compensation Committee or the
Board shall pay to the Executive such compensation or other payments. Notwithstanding the exclusion caused by the first clause
of the prior sentence, the Executive shall receive such payments if provided for by a court or other administrative order.

 

(b)
In the event that the Corporation restates any financial statements which have been contained in reports or registration statements
filed with the SEC, and the restatement of the prior financial statements is as the result of material noncompliance with any
financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Executive hereby acknowledges that the Corporation shall recover
from the Executive (i) incentive based compensation (including stock options) awarded during the three year period preceding the
date on which the Corporation is required to prepare the restatement (ii) in excess of what would have been paid the Executive
under the restatement. Any rules passed by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 10D of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (added by Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) shall be incorporated in this
Agreement to the extent applicable. The Executive agrees to reimburse the Corporation for any bonuses received and/or profits
realized from the sale of the Corporation’s securities (including the cash received from exercise of any options (or other
awards of stock rights) during the 12-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the SEC of the report or
registration statement (whichever comes first) containing the financial information required to be restated. Provided,
however, this Section shall not impose any liability on the Executive beyond any liability that is imposed under Section
304 of SOX.

 

    	7

    	 

    

  

(c)
Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 10(b), if the Corporation’s common stock is listed on a national securities
exchange and such exchange adopts rules requiring clawbacks beyond what Section 304 of SOX requires, such rules shall be incorporated
in this Agreement to the extent applicable and the Executive shall comply with such rules, including but not limited to executing
any amendment to this Agreement.

 

12.
Section 409A.

 

(a)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at the time of the Executive’s separation from
service within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Corporation determines that the Executive is a “specified employee”
within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes
entitled to under this Agreement on account of the Executive’s separation from service would be considered deferred compensation
subject to the 20% additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)
of the Code, such payment shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be provided until the date that is the earlier of (i)
six months and one day after the Executive’s separation from service, or (ii) the Executive’s death (the “Six
Month Delay Rule”).

 

(b)
For purposes of this Section 12, amounts payable under the Agreement should not be considered a deferral of compensation subject
to Section 409A to the extent provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (i.e., short-term deferrals), Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) (i.e., separation pay plans, including the exception under subparagraph (iii)), and other applicable provisions
of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1 through A-6.

 

(c)
To the extent that the Six Month Delay Rule applies to payments otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall
include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six-month period but for the application
of the Six Month Delay Rule, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule.

 

(d)
To the extent that the Six Month Delay Rule applies to the provision of benefits (including, but not limited to, life insurance
and medical insurance), such benefit coverage shall nonetheless be provided to the Executive during the first six months following
his separation from service (the “Six Month Period”), provided that, during such Six-Month Period, the Executive pays
to the Corporation, on a monthly basis in advance, an amount equal to the Monthly Cost (as defined below) of such benefit coverage.
The Corporation shall reimburse the Executive for any such payments made by the Executive in a lump sum not later than 30 days
following the sixth month anniversary of the Executive’s separation from service. For purposes of this subparagraph, “Monthly
Cost” means the minimum dollar amount which, if paid by the Executive on a monthly basis in advance, results in the Executive
not being required to recognize any federal income tax on receipt of the benefit coverage during the Six Month Period.

 

    	8

    	 

    

  

(e)
The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any
provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such
a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended,
as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all related
rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party.

 

(f)
The Corporation makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions
of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an
exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

non-competition, and non-solicitation, as more particularly described herein.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the hiring by the Company of the Employee as an employee of the Company, the Employee hereby agrees
as follows:

 

1.
Confidential Information. The Employee acknowledges that, in order for him to perform his or her duties properly, the Company
must necessarily entrust the Employee with certain trade secrets and confidential business information (the “Confidential
Information”). The Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to: source code, object code, operational and functional
features and limitations of the Company’s software; the Company’s research and development plans and activities; the Company’s
manufacturing and production plans and activities; the prices, terms and conditions of the Company’s contracts with its customers;
the identities, needs and requirements of the Company’s customers; the Company’s pricing policies and price lists; the Company’s
business plans and strategies; the Company’s marketing plans and strategies; personnel information; and financial information
regarding the Company. The Employee further acknowledges that the development or acquisition of such Confidential Information
is the result of great effort and expense by the Company, that the Confidential Information is critical to the survival and success
of the Company, and that the unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information would cause the Company irreparable
harm.

 

2. Non-disclosure of Confidential Information. The Employee agrees that, during the term of his or her employment with
the Company and thereafter, he or she will not disclose the Confidential Information or use it in any way, except on behalf
of the Company, whether or not such Confidential Information is produced by the Employee’s own efforts. The Employee further
agrees, upon termination of his or her employment, promptly to deliver to the Company all Confidential Information, whether
or not such Confidential Information was produced by the Employee’s own efforts, and to refrain from making, retaining or
distributing copies thereof.

 

3.
Inventions and Discoveries. Any invention, discovery, development, improvement, procedure, writing, work or trade secret
(collectively referred to herein as “Inventions”) that relates to any phase of the business of the Company, or results
from any work performed on the premises of the Company or by use of the facilities, equipment or services of other employees of
the Company, whether patentable, copyrightable or not, and that is made or discovered by the Employee individually or jointly
with any other person or persons during the term of the Employee’s employment with the Company (including any period of time prior
to the date of this Agreement), shall forthwith be disclosed to the Company and shall be the sole property of the Company. Any
such Invention shall be considered a work made for hire. The Employee hereby assigns to the Company all of his or her right, title
and interest to any such Invention. The Employee further agrees to maintain adequate, current written records of any Invention
within the scope of the foregoing provisions in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, memoranda or other written evidence, which
records shall be and remain the sole property of the Company.

the Company in applying for patents, trademarks, copyrights, letters patent and other means for the protection of proprietary
information, both foreign and domestic, with respect to any Invention described in paragraph 4. The Employee shall execute and
deliver to the Company any and all other documents and instruments that, in the opinion of the Company and its counsel, are appropriate
in order to obtain said patents, trademarks, copyrights, letters patent and other means of protecting proprietary information.
The Employee shall further execute and deliver all such other instruments and take all other actions that in the opinion of the
Company and its counsel shall be appropriate to vest in the Company (or in such person as the Company may specify) all right,
title and interest in said patents, trademarks, copyrights, letters patent and other means of protecting proprietary information,
and shall cooperate and assist in any litigation commenced by the Company against third parties with respect to the same.

 

5.
Power of Attorney. In the event the Company is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure Employee’s signature on any letters
patent, copyright or other analogous protection relating to an Invention, whether because of Employee’s physical or mental incapacity
or for any other reason whatsoever, Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers
and agents as his or her agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and in his or her behalf and stead to execute and file any such
application or applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution thereon with the same legal
force and effect as if executed by Employee.

 

6.
Employee Developments. Employee represents that all inventions, discoveries, developments, improvements, procedures, writings,
works, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights to which Employee claims ownership as of the date of this Agreement
(the “Employee Developments”), and which the parties agree are excluded from this Agreement, are listed in Exhibit A
attached hereto. If no such Employee Developments are listed in Exhibit A, Employee represents that there are no such Employee
Developments at the time of signing this Agreement.

 

7.
Restrictions on Competition. The Employee agrees that, during the term of his or her employment with the Company and for
a period of one year after termination for any reason of Employee’s employment, he or she will not, directly or indirectly, render
services to, work for or on behalf of, have an interest in, make any loan to, or assist in any manner any business that is competitive
with that in which the Company was engaged or planned to engage on the date of the Employee’s termination from the Company.

8.

Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the expenditure of reasonable amounts of time by the Executive for the
making of passive personal investments, the conduct of private business affairs, charitable and professional activities such

restrictive covenants set forth in Section 9 below. Furthermore, The Executive will serve as a Director on the Board
for a period of three years from the date of this agreement. The executive may not be removed as a Board of Director member
for a period of 3 years unless terminated for cause as in section 5D. This supersedes the bylaws of the

(the “Initial Term”), shall be for a period of four (4) years commencing on May 8, 2013 (the
“Commencement Date”). The term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for additional terms of
one (1) year each (each a “Renewal Term”) unless either party gives prior written notice of non-renewal to
the other party no later than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term (“Non-Renewal
Notice”), or the then current Renewal Term, as the case may be. For purposes of this Agreement, the Initial Term
and any Renewal Term are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Term.”

4.

(a)
The Corporation shall pay the Executive as compensation for his services hereunder, in equal semi-monthly or bi-weekly

In addition to the Base Salary set forth in Section 4(a) above, the Executive
shall be entitled to receive, depending upon mutually agreeable performance targets, an annual bonus for the year in which
Employer meets or exceeds performance targets during the Term at the discretion of the board of directors of the Corporation.
Bonus targets and the amount of bonus for each fiscal year shall be set by the Board of Directors.

diminution); (iv) any material change in the geographic location at which the Executive must perform services to a location
without the Executive’s prior written consent; (or (v) any material violation by the Corporation of its obligations
under this Agreement. Prior to the Executive terminating his employment with the Corporation for Good Reason, the Executive
must provide written notice to the Corporation, within 90 days following the initial existence of such condition, that such
Good Reason exists and setting forth in detail the grounds the Executive believes constitutes Good Reason. If the Corporation
does not cure the conditions constituting Good Reason within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice thereof from the
Executive, then Executive’s employment shall be deemed terminated for Good Reason.

 

(d)

part of the Executive in connection with his employment duties hereunder, in all cases that is not cured within fourteen (14)
days after receipt of notice thereof (to the extent such breach is capable of being cured), or the Executive’s

larceny or embezzlement resulting in material harm to the Corporation by the Executive.

unpaid compensation and vacation pay through the date of death or Total Disability and any other benefits accrued to him

such date, the Executive or his estate or beneficiaries, as applicable, shall be entitled to the following severance
benefits: (i) (12) months’ Base Salary at the then current rate, to be paid in equal semi-monthly or bi-weekly
installments, less withholding of all applicable taxes, at such times he would have received them if there was no

compensation and vacation pay through the date of termination and any other benefits accrued to him under any Benefit Plans
outstanding at such time and the reimbursement of documented, unreimbursed expenses incurred prior to such date. In the event
the Corporation tenders a Non-Renewal Notice to the Executive, then the Executive shall be entitled to the same severance
benefits as if the Executive’s employment were terminated pursuant to all items in Section 5 above except for section
5d, if such Non-Renewal Notice was triggered due to the Corporation’s statement that the Executive’s employment
was terminated due to Section 5(d) (for “Cause”), then payment of severance benefits will determined by the board

to be paid in equal semi-monthly or bi-weekly installments, less withholding of all applicable taxes, at such times he would
have received them if there was no termination; (ii) continued provision for a period of twelve (12) months after the date of
termination of the benefits under Benefit Plans extended from time to time by the Corporation to its senior executives; and
(iii) payment on a pro-rated basis of any bonus or other payments earned in connection with any bonus plan to which the
Executive was a participant as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment. In addition, any options or
restricted stock shall be immediately vested upon termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 5(a)(v) or
by the Corporation or without “Cause”.

enter into that certain Non-Disclosure, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement attached hereto in the form of Exhibit
A.

 

9. Miscellaneous.

 

(a)
The Executive acknowledges that the services to be rendered by him under the provisions of this Agreement are of a special,
unique and extraordinary character and that it would be difficult or impossible to replace such services. Accordingly, the
Executive agrees that any breach or threatened breach by him of Sections 8 or 9 of this Agreement shall entitle the
Corporation, in addition to all other legal remedies available to it, to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to seek
to enjoin such breach or threatened breach. The parties understand and intend that each restriction agreed to by the
Executive hereinabove shall be construed as separable and divisible from every other restriction, that the unenforceability
of any restriction shall not limit the enforceability, in whole or in part, of any other restriction, and that one or more or
all of such restrictions may be enforced in whole or in part as the circumstances warrant. In the event that any restriction
in this Agreement is more restrictive than permitted by law in the jurisdiction in which the Corporation seeks enforcement
thereof, such restriction shall be limited to the extent permitted by law. The remedy of injunctive relief herein set forth
shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies that the Corporation may have at law or in
equity.

 

(b)
Neither the Executive nor the Corporation may assign or delegate any of their rights or duties under this Agreement without
the express written consent of the other; provided however that the Corporation shall have the right to delegate its
obligation of payment of all sums due to the Executive hereunder, provided that such delegation shall not relieve the
Corporation of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

(c)
This Agreement constitutes and embodies the full and complete understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the
Executive’s employment by the Corporation, supersedes all prior understandings and agreements, whether oral or written,
between the Executive and the Corporation, and shall not be amended, modified or changed except by an instrument in writing
executed by the party to be charged. The invalidity or partial invalidity of one or more provisions of this Agreement shall
not invalidate any other provision of this Agreement. No waiver by either party of any provision or condition to be performed
shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same time or any prior or subsequent
time.

 

(d)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, be binding upon and enforceable against, the parties hereto and their
respective successors, heirs, beneficiaries and permitted assigns.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

(e)
The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.

 

(f)
All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered, sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or by private overnight mail service (e.g. Federal Express) to the party at the address set forth
above or to such other address as either party may hereafter give notice of in accordance with the provisions hereof. Notices
shall be deemed given on the sooner of the date actually received or the third business day after sending.

 

(g)
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without
reference to principles of conflicts of laws and each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and
venue of the federal and state courts located in the State of New York.

 

(h)
This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all
of which together shall constitute one of the same instrument. The parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date
set forth above.

 

10. Change
of Control. Upon a Change of Control (as hereinafter defined), the Executive shall receive all monies and compensation
due for the term of this contract. This contract will be enforceable but the duties and responsibilities may change for the
executive subject to mutual agreement between the Executive and the new ownership or the executive may exercise his
termination clause and be entitled to all compensation as stated above. The Executive (or his estate) shall receive all
payments provided herein at such times as he would have received them if there was no Change of Control.

 

For
purposes of this Agreement “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:

 

(a)
Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly,
of securities of the Corporation representing 50% or more of the total voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding
voting securities or 50% or more of the fair market value of the Corporation;

 

Or

 

(c)
The Corporation has sold all or substantially all of its assets to another person or entity that is not a majority-owned subsidiary
of the Corporation.

 

Notwithstanding
the preceding, the above-listed events must satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) in order to
be deemed a Change of Control.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

11.
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

(a)
In the event the Executive or the Corporation is the subject of an investigation (whether criminal, civil, or administrative)
involving possible violations of the United States federal securities laws by the Executive, the Compensation Committee or the
Board may, in its sole discretion, direct the Corporation to withhold any and all payments to the Executive (whether compensation
or otherwise) which would have otherwise been made pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise would have been paid or payable by
the Corporation, which the Compensation Committee or the Board believes, in its sole discretion, may or could be considered an
“extraordinary payment” and therefore at risk and potentially subject to, the provisions of Section 1103 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002 (“SOX”) (including, but not limited to, any severance payments made to the Executive upon termination
of employment). The withholding of any payment shall be until such time as the investigation is concluded, without charges having
been brought or until the successful conclusion of any legal proceedings brought in connection with such amounts as directed by
the Compensation Committee or the Board to be withheld with or without the accruing of interest (and if with interest the rate
thereof). Except by an admission of wrongdoing or the final adjudication by a court or administrative agency finding the Executive
liable for or guilty of violating any of the federal securities laws, rules or regulations, the Compensation Committee or the
Board shall pay to the Executive such compensation or other payments. Notwithstanding the exclusion caused by the first clause
of the prior sentence, the Executive shall receive such payments if provided for by a court or other administrative order.

 

(b)
In the event that the Corporation restates any financial statements which have been contained in reports or registration statements
filed with the SEC, and the restatement of the prior financial statements is as the result of material noncompliance with any
financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Executive hereby acknowledges that the Corporation shall recover
from the Executive (i) incentive based compensation (including stock options) awarded during the three year period preceding the
date on which the Corporation is required to prepare the restatement (ii) in excess of what would have been paid the Executive
under the restatement. Any rules passed by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 10D of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (added by Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act) shall be incorporated in this
Agreement to the extent applicable. The Executive agrees to reimburse the Corporation for any bonuses received and/or profits
realized from the sale of the Corporation’s securities (including the cash received from exercise of any options (or other
awards of stock rights) during the 12-month period following the first public issuance or filing with the SEC of the report or
registration statement (whichever comes first) containing the financial information required to be restated. Provided,
however, this Section shall not impose any liability on the Executive beyond any liability that is imposed under Section
304 of SOX.

 

(c)
Notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 10(b), if the Corporation’s common stock is listed on a national securities
exchange and such exchange adopts rules requiring clawbacks beyond what Section 304 of SOX requires, such rules shall be incorporated
in this Agreement to the extent applicable and the Executive shall comply with such rules, including but not limited to executing
any amendment to this Agreement.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

12.
Section 409A.

 

(a)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at the time of the Executive’s separation from
service within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Corporation determines that the Executive is a “specified employee”
within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes
entitled to under this Agreement on account of the Executive’s separation from service would be considered deferred compensation
subject to the 20% additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)
of the Code, such payment shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be provided until the date that is the earlier of (i)
six months and one day after the Executive’s separation from service, or (ii) the Executive’s death (the “Six
Month Delay Rule”).

 

(b)
For purposes of this Section 12, amounts payable under the Agreement should not be considered a deferral of compensation subject
to Section 409A to the extent provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (i.e., short-term deferrals), Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) (i.e., separation pay plans, including the exception under subparagraph (iii)), and other applicable provisions
of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1 through A-6.

 

(c)
To the extent that the Six Month Delay Rule applies to payments otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall
include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six-month period but for the application
of the Six Month Delay Rule, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule.

 

(d)
To the extent that the Six Month Delay Rule applies to the provision of benefits (including, but not limited to, life insurance
and medical insurance), such benefit coverage shall nonetheless be provided to the Executive during the first six months following
his separation from service (the “Six Month Period”), provided that, during such Six-Month Period, the Executive pays
to the Corporation, on a monthly basis in advance, an amount equal to the Monthly Cost (as defined below) of such benefit coverage.
The Corporation shall reimburse the Executive for any such payments made by the Executive in a lump sum not later than 30 days
following the sixth month anniversary of the Executive’s separation from service. For purposes of this subparagraph, “Monthly
Cost” means the minimum dollar amount which, if paid by the Executive on a monthly basis in advance, results in the Executive
not being required to recognize any federal income tax on receipt of the benefit coverage during the Six Month Period.

 

(e)
The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any
provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such
a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended,
as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all related
rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party.

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

(f)
The Corporation makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions
of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an
exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.
