THIS AGREEMENT (Agreement) is effective as of the Grant Date specified in the accompanying Grant Letter, by and between the Participant and Hibbett Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries (Company)).

A. The Company maintains the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (EIP or Plan).

B. The Participant has been selected by the committee administering the EIP (Committee) to receive a Restricted Stock Unit Award under the Plan.

C. Key terms and important conditions of the Award are set forth in the cover letter (Grant Letter) which was delivered to the Participant at the same time as this document.  This Agreement contains general provisions relating to the Award.

IT IS AGREED, by and between the Company and the Participant, as follows:

1. Terms of Award. The following terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in this paragraph 1:

(a)  The Participant is the individual named in the Grant Letter.

(b)  The Grant Date is the date of the Grant Letter.

(c)   The Units means an award denominated in shares of the Company's Stock as specified in the Grant Letter.

(d)   The Restricted Period shall begin on the Grant Date and extend, with respect to successive installments of Units (if any), until the dates and/or events specified in the Grant Letter (including Schedule A).

Other terms used in this Agreement are defined pursuant to paragraph 8 or elsewhere in this Agreement.

2. Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Participant is hereby granted the number of Units set forth in paragraph 1.

3. Settlement of Awards. The Company shall deliver to the Participant one share of Stock (or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock) for each vested Unit, as determined in accordance with the provisions of Grant Letter and this Agreement. The Units payable to the Participant in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 3 shall be paid solely in shares of Stock, solely in cash based on the Fair Market Value of the Stock (determined as of the first business day next following the last day of the Restricted Period), or in a combination of the two, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, except that cash shall be distributed in lieu of any fractional share of Stock.

19

4. Time of Payment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, payment of Units vested in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 5 will be delivered as soon as practicable after the end of the Restricted Period;  provided that any cash payment or delivery of shares shall occur no later than the end of the calendar year during which the Restricted Period ends.  To the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, in the event the Participant is a "specified employee" as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(i) on the Date of Termination (as defined below), any amounts payable hereunder shall be paid no earlier than the first business day after the six month anniversary of the Date of Termination.  Whether the Participant is a specified employee and whether an amount payable to the Participant hereunder is subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be determined by the Company.

5. Vesting and Forfeiture of Units.

(a)  Units shall vest, and the Participant shall be entitled to settlement on Units, when the Restricted Period has ended. Except in the situations described below, if the Participant's Date of Termination occurs during the Restricted Period, then Units shall be forfeited.

(b)  Units shall vest prior to the end of the Restricted Period, in the following situations:

(i)   Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the Grant Letter, if the Participant's Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant's death, or Disability, then the Units vest as of the Participant's Date of Termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Award is conditioned on the achievement of one or more performance objectives set forth in the Grant Letter, then the Participant shall become vested under this paragraph 5(b)(i) only upon Committee certification that  the performance objectives have been achieved.

(ii)  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the Grant Letter, if the Participant's Date of Termination occurs by reason of the Participant's Retirement, then the Units vest upon the Committee's certification of the achievement of one or more performance objectives set forth in the Grant Letter; provided that the Participant remains employed through the end of the fiscal year during which the performance objectives are measured.

(iii) If (x) a Change in Control occurs prior to the end of the Restricted Period, (y) the Participant's Date of Termination does not occur before the Change in Control date, and (z) the Committee determines to accelerate such vesting, then the Units vest as of the date of the Change in Control.

(c)    The Participant shall forfeit all unvested Units as of the date on which the Committee determines the Participant materially violated (A) the provisions of paragraph 10 below or (B) any non-competition agreement which the Participant may have entered into with the Company.

6. Withholding. All deliveries and distributions under this Agreement are subject to withholding of all applicable taxes. The Company is entitled to (a) withhold and deduct from future wages of the Participant (or from other amounts due to Participant) or make other arrangements for the collection of all legally required amounts necessary to satisfy such withholding or (b) require the Participant promptly to remit such amounts to the Company.  

 

20

Subject to such rules and limitations as may be established by the Committee from time to time, the withholding obligations described in this Section 6 may be satisfied through the surrender of shares of Stock which the Participant already owns, or to which the Participant is otherwise entitled under the Plan, including shares of Stock to be settled under this Agreement.

7. Transferability. Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered until the expiration of the Restricted Period or, if earlier, until the Participant is vested in the Units.   Transfers at death are governed by paragraph 9(c) below.

8. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms used in this Agreement shall have the following meanings:

(a)  Change in Control. The term Change in Control shall mean (a) the sale, lease, exchange or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (in one transaction or in a series of related transactions) to a corporation that is not controlled by the Company, (b) the approval by the shareholders of the Company of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, (c) a successful tender offer for the Common Stock of the Company, after which the tendering party holds more than 30% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company, or (d) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, or other transaction to which the Company is a party pursuant to which the holders of all of the shares of the Company outstanding prior to such transaction do not hold, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the outstanding shares of the surviving company after the transaction.

(b)  Date of Termination. The Participant's Date of Termination shall be the day immediately prior to the first day on which the Participant is not employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, regardless of the reason for the termination of employment; provided that a termination of employment shall not be deemed to occur by reason of a transfer of the Participant between the Company and a Subsidiary or between two Subsidiaries; and further provided that the Participant's employment shall not be considered terminated while the Participant is on a leave of absence approved by the Participant's employer.

(c)  Disability. The Participant shall be considered to have a Disability if he or she satisfies the definition contained in Section 409A(a)(2)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and any applicable guidance issued thereunder.

21

merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or otherwise, all or substantially all of the Company's assets and business.

 

(c)  If any rights exercisable by the Participant or benefits deliverable to the Participant under this Agreement have not been exercised or delivered, respectively, at the time of the Participant's death, such rights shall be exercisable by the Designated Beneficiary, and such benefits shall be delivered to the Designated Beneficiary, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan. The "Designated Beneficiary" shall be the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by the Participant in a writing filed with the Committee in such form and at such time as the Committee shall require. If a deceased Participant fails to designate a beneficiary, or if the Designated Beneficiary does not survive the Participant, any rights that would have been exercisable by the Participant and any benefits distributable to the Participant shall be exercised by or distributed to the legal representative of the estate of the Participant. If a deceased Participant designates a beneficiary and the Designated Beneficiary survives the Participant but dies before the Designated Beneficiary's exercise of all rights under this Agreement or before the complete distribution of benefits to the Designated Beneficiary under this Agreement, then any rights that would have been exercisable by the Designated Beneficiary shall be exercised by the legal representative of the estate of the Designated Beneficiary, and any benefits distributable to the Designated Beneficiary shall be distributed to the legal representative of the estate of the Designated Beneficiary.

10. Disclosure of Information.  The Participant recognizes and acknowledges that the Company's trade secrets, confidential information, and proprietary information, including customer and vendor lists and computer data and programs (collectively "Confidential Information"), are valuable, special and unique assets of the Company's business, access to and knowledge of which are essential to the performance of the Participant's duties.  The Participant will not, before or after his Date of Termination, in whole or in part, disclose such Confidential Information to any person or entity or make such Confidential Information public for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall the Participant make use of such Confidential Information for the Participant's own purposes or for the benefit of any person or entity other than the Company under any circumstances before or after the Participant's Date of Termination; provided that this prohibition shall not apply after the Participant's Date of Termination to Confidential Information that has become publicly known through no action of the Participant.  The Participant shall consider and treat as the Company's property all memoranda, books, records, papers, letters, computer data or programs, or customer lists, including any copies thereof in human- or machine-readable form, in any way relating to the Company's business or affairs, financial or otherwise, whether created by the Participant or coming into his or her possession, and shall deliver the same to the Company on the Date of Termination or, on demand of the Company, at any earlier time.

11. Administration. The authority to manage and control the operation and administration of this Agreement shall be vested in the Committee, and the Committee shall have all powers with respect to this Agreement as it has with respect to the Plan. Any interpretation of the Agreement by the Committee and any decision made by it with respect to the Agreement is final and binding on all persons.  Such powers or decision-making may be delegated, to the extent permitted by the Plan, to one or more of Committee members or any other person or persons selected by the Committee.

22

 as the Company may designate); and this Agreement is subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee from time to time pursuant to the Plan.

13. No Implied Rights.

(a)  The award of Units will not confer on the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment or other service with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor will it interfere in any way with any right the Company or any Subsidiary would otherwise have to terminate or modify the terms of such Participant's employment or other service at any time.

(b)  The Participant shall not have any rights of a shareholder with respect to the Units until shares of Stock have been duly issued following settlement of the Award as provided herein.

Notices sent by mail shall be deemed received three business days after mailing but in no event later than the date of actual receipt. Notices shall be directed, if to the Participant, at the Participant's address indicated by the Company's records, or if to the Company, at the Company's principal executive office.

15. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by written agreement of the Participant and the Company, without the consent of any other person.

16. Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Alabama without giving effect to the choice-of-law provisions thereof.  The Circuit Court of the City of Birmingham and the United States District Court, Northern District of Alabama, Birmingham Division shall be the exclusive courts of jurisdiction and venue for any litigation, special proceeding or other proceeding as between the parties that may be brought, or arise out of, in connection with, or by reason of this Agreement.

to the same extent as NORC is obligated there under. The parties hereto will take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate
to facilitate NORC’s performance of the Prime Contract as it relates to this Subcontract. Notwithstanding any other provision

2.            PAYMENT

 

2.01        Time
& Materials Contract

 

(A)      This
agreement is awarded on a time and material basis and will be incrementally funded as NORC receives task orders under the NIS
contract that requires the services of Subcontractor. The initial subcontract funding of this contract shall be $685,779, to support
NORC’s scope of work for the first two Task Orders, Task Order #1 (NIS-Core, Quarters 3,2012) and Task Order #2 (NIS-Teen,
Quarters 3 and 4, 2012) issued by the Government to NORC under the prime contract. At NORC’s discretion, incremental funding
shall be provided if required to complete additional Task Orders under the Government contract Any costs which exceed the funded
amount are incurred at the Subcontractor’s risk. The total cost to NORC for performance of the Work shall not exceed $1,000,000.00
which shall be the “Subcontract Cost Limitation.” NORC shall not be obligated to pay Subcontractor for an aggregate
amount in excess of the Subcontract Cost Limitation and Subcontractor shall not be obligated to continue the Work once the aggregate
amount of time and material costs incurred equal the Subcontract Cost Limitation.

 

(B)       If
at any time during the period of performance Subcontractor concludes that the scope of work in Appendix A cannot be completed
within the cost limit stated above, Subcontractor shall so notify NORC within 90 business days and shall provide, within 60 business
days, an estimate of the additional funds which would be necessary to complete that scope of work. Upon notice, NORC may reduce
the scope of work, revise the scope of work, increase the available funding, or advise Subcontractor to discontinue its efforts
when the funds have been exhausted.

 

2.02
        Payment Schedule

 

Provided Subcontractor has not caused
an Event of Default under this Subcontract Agreement, or a material breach which by passage of time would become an Event of Default,
NORC shall remit payment after Subcontractor’s satisfaction of the Statement of Work, as follows:

                                         production interviewing hours will be invoiced at $20.90 for each interviewing hour or
                                         portion thereof incurred in the execution of the Statement of Work. In the event that
                                         the Subcontractors productivity falls below the standards as specified in the Statement
                                         of Work by as much as 20 percent (e.g., hours per completed case [for landline and cell
                                         cases combined] rises from 12.3 to 14.8), NORC will have the right to consider reduction
                                         of the hourly payment by $2.00 for each interviewer hour. Such considerations shall be
                                         discussed with the Subcontractor prior to NORC exercising such an adjustment to this
                                         hourly rate.

 

		3.	Refusal
                                         conversion and/or Hispanic interviewing hours will be invoiced at $22.50 for each interviewing
                                         hour or portion thereof incurred in the execution of the Statement of Work.

Compliance

 

(A)
       Default. Given the nature of the Proprietary Information and the interests of
NORC therein, while NORC may issue notices to cease and desist unauthorized disclosure and/or prohibited actual or reasonably
anticipated competitive use, no cure period shall be allowed; unauthorized disclosure and/or use shall be deemed an automatic
Event of Default of Subcontractor’s obligations under this Agreement.

 

(B)       Right
to Equitable Remedies. Subcontractor acknowledges that monetary damages would be an insufficient remedy for any breach of
this Agreement, and that any such breach would cause NORC immediate and irreparable harm. Accordingly, Subcontractor agrees that
in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Subcontractor Agreement, Subcontractor shall not object to NORC’s
request for equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, without the requirement for NORC to post a
bond or other security, in addition to other remedies it may have at law, including monetary damages, or in equity.

requirements of Privacy Laws will adversely affect the Contract Requirements, including but not limited to timely delivery thereof,
Subcontractor shall give NORC prompt written notice thereof, not to exceed fifteen (15) days after the Subcontract Agreement,
specified in Section 1.02. NORC may, from time to time, request written certification and/or explanation of Subcontractor’s
compliance under Privacy Laws. NORC may, without incurring liability therefor or limiting Subcontractor’s obligations provided
above, provide within the Contract Requirements reference to specific Privacy Laws, which shall not be deemed an exclusive recitation
of any and all applicable Privacy Laws.

 

5.07         Disclosure
of Conflicts of Interest

 

Prior
to execution and delivery of this Subcontract Agreement to NORC, the Subcontractor shall inform NORC in writing of any and all
then-existing relationships and/or agreements of Subcontractor with any other person which causes a conflict of interest, or which
would give a reasonable inference of a conflict of interest. The term “conflict of interest” shall be interpreted
broadly in favor of disclosure and shall include, but not be limited to, the: (A) Subcontractor’s participation in any activity
similar to the Statement of Work during the Term, (B) Subcontractor engaged in any litigation or claim against any client of NORC,

7.             LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY

 

Subcontractor
and NORC, respectively, agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless against any and all claims, demands, judgments, costs and
expenses for injury to person and/or property, including reasonable attorney’s fees for the defense thereof, arising from such
indemnifying party’s actions or omissions under this Subcontract Agreement, from any breach or default on the part of such
indemnifying party in the performance of any covenant or agreement hereunder, and from any act of negligence of such party and
that of its agents, servants, employees, and/or contractors. In case of any action or proceeding brought against the indemnified
party by reason of any such claim, the indemnifying party covenants to defend such action or proceeding, including appeals therefrom,
with counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, NORC’s liability to Subcontractor hereunder whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise,

8.            CHANGES

 

a.       Permitted Changes. NORC shall have the right by written notice to make changes from time to time in the Services
to be rendered or the Products to be furnished by Subcontractor hereunder, including, but not limited to, changes to the delivery
or performance schedule, the quantity of Products or Services ordered, the Work Statement, the place of inspection, delivery,
or acceptance, and the amount of NORC or NORC Customer furnished property, if any.

 

b.       Request
for Equitable Adjustment and Duty to Proceed. If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of performance of
this Subcontract or in the time required for its performance, NORC may make an equitable adjustment in the Subcontract price or
delivery schedule or both and shall modify this Subcontract in writing accordingly. To the extent that Subcontractor seeks an
increase in price or extended schedule as a result of a change, Subcontractor must submit a written and fully supported request
for equitable adjustment within ten (10) days from the date of NORC’s written notice to Subcontractor of the change or such
further time as NORC may allow in writing. Subcontractor’s failure to adhere to the time deadlines in submitting its
equitable adjustment proposal shall waive Subcontractor’s right to an equitable adjustment. Subcontractor shall proceed
with the Subcontract as changed pending resolution of any request for equitable adjustment. The parties’ failure to agree
to any adjustment shall be a Dispute covered by Sections 14 and 15 of these General Provisions.

 

c.       Change
Based on Prime Contract Change. If NORC issues a change based on a change in the Prime Contract, the equitable adjustment to
Subcontractor, if any, in price or delivery schedule or both, will in no event be greater for an increase in price or schedule
or less for a decrease in price or schedule than the corresponding equitable adjustment to NORC under the Prime Contract, excluding
NORC’s performance costs, overhead, profit, and schedule impacts associated with the change.

 

d.       Signature
Required by NORC Purchasing Representative. Information, advice, approvals or instructions given by NORC’s technical personnel
or other representatives shall be deemed expressions of personal opinion only and shall not affect NORC’s and Subcontractor’s
rights and obligations hereunder unless set forth in a writing which is signed by NORC’s purchasing representative and which states
that it constitutes an amendment or change to this Subcontract.

9.             TERMINATION
FOR DEFAULT.

 

NORC,
at its option, may terminate this Subcontract, in whole or in part, for default (in addition to any other rights and remedies
provided at law) if any of the following acts of default occur: (1) Subcontractor’s performance under the Subcontract is in default;
(2) Subcontractor materially breaches any provision of this Subcontract; (3) Subcontractor becomes involved in or with a petition
under any bankruptcy act or similar statute which is not vacated within 30 days after such filing; or (4) any other reason set
forth in this Subcontract. Such termination for default shall be effective upon receipt by Subcontractor of a written notice of
termination for default issued by NORC. The notice of termination for default shall be preceded by a letter briefly describing
the conditions of default and offering Subcontractor not less than 5 days to cure the default unless NORC’s Customer has terminated
or threatened to terminate NORC’s contract without an opportunity to cure. After receipt of a notice of a complete or partial
termination for default, Subcontractor shall: (i) stop affected Work; (ii) terminate all affected subcontracts; (iu) return all
NORC and NORC Customer property or equipment to NORC; (iv) complete performance of any Subcontract work not terminated; and (v)
take such other and further action as may be reasonably required by NORC.

 

In
the event that NORC properly terminates this Subcontract
for default, either in whole or in part, Subcontractor shall only receive payment (less amounts covered by any NORC right of setoff)
under the terminated portion of the Subcontract for Subcontract-compliant Work provided to and accepted by NORC prior to the effective
date of such termination and only to the extent that NORC’s Customer first pays for such Work. Subcontractor shall submit a request
for payment under the terminated Subcontract, or terminated portion of the Subcontract, within 30 days after termination. In no
event shall Subcontractor be entitled to receive payment on Work for which NORC’s Customer will not pay. In the event of a partial
termination for default, Subcontractor shall not be entitled to an equitable adjustment to the non-terminated portion of the Subcontract.
Moreover, in the event of a termination for default, NORC may procure substitute services, deliverables, and/or supplies, to satisfy
the obligations set forth in the Subcontract or portion of the Subcontract terminated. Upon a termination for default, Subcontractor
shall be liable to NORC for all expenses incurred by NORC that would not have been incurred had Subcontractor performed pursuant
to this Subcontract including, but not limited to, the increased costs of (and associated with) any substitute services, deliverables,
and supplies procured. NORC’s remedies provided for in this provision shall be in addition to any other remedy available to NORC
by law or as otherwise provided for in this Subcontract, and this provision shall survive any termination of this Subcontract.
In the event that NORC improperly terminates this Subcontract for default, the termination shall be treated as a termination for
convenience and Subcontractor shall be entitled only to receive payment in accord with the provisions of Section 11 below.

 

10.          STOP
WORK ORDER

 

NORC
may direct the Subcontractor to stop work under this Subcontract Agreement at any time (“Stop Work Order”). The Subcontractor
will be reimbursed only for those costs actually incurred prior to the Stop Work Order, contingent upon full reimbursement to
NORC by the Client under the Prime Contract for these costs.

 

(A)       Under
the Prime Contract, the Contracting Officer may, at any time, by written order to NORC, require NORC to stop all or any part of
the Work called for by the Prime Contract. After the order is delivered to NORC, and for any further period to which the parties
may agree, the Contracting Officer may also cancel the stop Work order or terminate the Work covered by such order. Immediately
upon receipt of any stop Work order that affects the Work called for under this Subcontract, NORC shall direct Subcontractor to
stop all or any part of the Work called for under this Subcontract for a period corresponding to the period of the Contracting
Officer’s order to NORC or any agreed to extensions thereof, or such other period to which NORC and Subcontractor may agree.

 (B) If a Stop Work Order issued to Subcontractor under this article is canceled by NORC or the period of such order or any extension thereof expires, Subcontractor shall resume Work upon receipt of written notice by NORC to do so. In such event, an equitable adjustment shall be made in the delivery schedule or cost of this Subcontract Agreement if:

 

(1)       The
Stop Work Order resulted in an increase or decrease in the cost of or the time required for the performance of any part of the
Work to be performed under this Subcontract and,

 

(2)       Subcontractor
asserts a claim for such adjustment within thirty (30) days after the end of the period of Work stoppage and,

 

(3)       Said
claim is approved by the Contracting Officer or Client

 

(C)       If
a Stop Work Order is not canceled and the Work covered by such order is terminated by NORC either for convenience or default,
such termination shall be handled in accordance with the “Termination” provisions of this Subcontract. Reasonable
costs resulting from the Stop Work Order shall be allowed as part of the termination settlement.

 

(D)       In
the event that the Subcontractor receives an order to stop work and is unable to provide continued funding for personnel on the
project or is unable to assure that it will be able to resume work using such personnel, Subcontractor may immediately issue a
written termination notice to NORC.

 

11.          TERMINATION
FOR CONVENIENCE

 

NORC
may terminate this Subcontract for convenience, in whole or in part, without advance notice in the event that: (i)
NORC’s Customer terminates, for any reason (e.g., default or convenience), the Prime Contract; (ii) NORC’s
Customer terminates, for any reason, any part of the Prime Contract if this Subcontract relates (in whole or in part) to the
portion terminated. NORC also may terminate this Subcontract for convenience, in whole or in part, if NORC deems such
termination to be in NORC’s best interest regardless of whether NORC’s Prime Contract is terminated. After
receipt of a notice of partial or total termination for convenience, Subcontractor shall (unless otherwise directed by NORC
in writing): (i) stop affected Work; (ii) terminate all affected subcontracts; (iii) return all NORC and NORC Customer
property or equipment to NORC; (iv) deliver to NORC, retain (with an appropriate credit to NORC), or dispose of all other
Subcontract supplies, deliverables, or equipment (with an appropriate credit to NORC); (v) complete performance of any
Subcontract work not terminated; and (vi) take such other and further action as may be reasonably required by NORC. In the
event of a partial termination for convenience, Subcontractor may request (in writing and within 30 days of the
termination for convenience) an equitable adjustment for the non-terminated portion of the work to the extent the termination
for convenience impacted the continuing work. Subcontractor shall only receive such an equitable adjustment if NORC’s
Customer provides NORC with a corresponding equitable adjustment. Subcontractor shall submit a detailed and documented
Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) compliant termination for convenience settlement proposal under the
terminated Subcontract, or terminated portion of the Subcontract, within 60 days after termination. Absent NORC written
consent (which NORC may withhold for any reason), Subcontractor shall not seek any costs as part of its termination for
convenience settlement proposal which are not allowed by FAR Part 31 and FAR Subparts 49.1 and 49.2, and the provisions
referenced therein. If this Subcontract is terminated for convenience in whole or in part pursuant to this Section__and
notwithstanding the preceding sentence, NORC shall not be liable to Subcontractor for anything more than allowed for under
the payment provisions of this Subcontract (on a percentage performed basis) for Work performed before the effective date of
the termination and may only recover amounts recovered by NORC from NORC’s Customer (except where the NORC Customer
did not issue a termination).

14.          DISPUTES

 

a.       Arbitration.
Except for the right of either party to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, a preliminary
injunction, or other equitable relief to preserve the status quo or prevent irreparable harm, the parties agree that any Dispute
between them or against any agent, employee, successor, or assign of the other shall be settled, to the extent possible, by good
faith negotiations. Any Dispute which the parties cannot resolve by good faith negotiations within thirty (30) days or such longer
period as the parties may mutually agree to, shall be submitted and finally resolved by binding arbitration under the commercial
arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect. The arbitration shall be conducted
by a panel of three arbitrators in Chicago, Illinois unless both parties consent in writing to a different location. The panel
of arbitrators shall be appointed by agreement between the parties or failing such agreement in accordance with AAA rules. The
parties may conduct discovery pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Evidence. The chairperson of the arbitration
panel shall, among other things: (a) have authority to resolve discovery disputes and issue appropriate subpoenas and orders to
facilitate discovery; (b) rule on dispositive motions, and (c) conduct the arbitration according to the Federal Rules of Evidence.
The arbitration panel shall have authority to award monetary damages, declaratory judgments, specific performance, and injunctive
and other equitable relief, which shall be enforceable by either the panel or any court with jurisdiction over the enjoined party
or its assets. Either party may also, without waiving any remedy under this Subcontract, seek from any court having jurisdiction
over the parties or its assets any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party,
pending the establishment of the arbitral panel (or pending the arbitral panel’s determination of the merits of the controversy).
The arbitration panel shall not have authority to award punitive, special or consequential damages or any other damages not available
under this Subcontract. The arbitration panel also shall not have the power to modify or amend the provisions of this Subcontract
except in accord with Section 8. The Arbitration panel shall apply the law specified in Section 17.06. Subcontractor and NORC
will pay their own attorneys1 fees and expert fees and other costs related to prosecuting or defending any Dispute,
but shall share equally the costs and fees associated with the arbitration hearing and the panel.

TRIAL AND, INSTEAD, HAVE ANY AND ALL DISPUTES DECIDED BY ARBITRATION. THE PARTIES SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS MUTUAL WAIVER

15.
         DISPUTES UNDER PRIME CONTRACT PROVISION.

 

a.       Pass

Customer actions or directions) shall be resolved, at NORC’s option, as follows: (i) Subcontractor shall provide NORC with a fully
supported written claim, properly certified, within twenty (20) days after the claim accrues or such longer time as NORC allows
in writing; (ii) Subcontractor shall cooperate with NORC in prosecuting Subcontractor’s timely made claim or demand and will be
bound by the resulting decision; and (iii) Subcontractor shall pay its proportional costs in pursuing the claim. If Subcontractor
fails to provide NORC with a written claim for any Dispute that could fall within this Section within twenty (20) days after the
claim arises or a longer provided if allowed by NORC in writing, Subcontractor shall have waived the claim and may not bring the
claim under this Subcontract.

 

b.       Limitation
of NORC Liability. NORC’s entire liability to Subcontractor with respect to any matter prosecuted under the Prime Contract disputes
clause shall be limited to the recovery obtained against NORC’s Customer for Subcontractor’s claims, less markups specifically
allowed NORC. If Subcontractor is affected by the resulting decision and NORC elects to appeal, Subcontractor shall pay to NORC
Subcontractor’s proportion of the appeal costs. If NORC elects not to appeal the decision, NORC shall notify Subcontractor
of such decision within thirty (30) days. If Subcontractor submits a timely request to NORC to appeal such decision, NORC shall
file an appeal, at Subcontractor’s sole cost, if NORC may do so in good faith. NORC has the right to review, prior to submission,
any pleading or other papers Subcontractor wants to file in such appeal. Subcontractor agrees to delete any admissions or statements
in the pleadings or papers to which NORC reasonably objects. If NORC appeals such decision, whether or not at Subcontractor’s
request, any decision regarding such appeal shall be binding on NORC and Subcontractor as it relates to this Subcontract.

Exhibit
A

 

STATEMENT
OF WORK

 

STATEMENT
OF WORK

 

A.       Services

 

Subcontractor
shall conduct interviews and research services for NORC (“Research Services”) comprised of administering research surveys
(each, a “Client Survey”) by telephone from Subcontractor’s offices from the pool of telephone numbers (hereafter referred
to as “Sample”) provided by NORC.

 

B.       Subcontractor
Responsibilities

 

In
performing the Research Services, it is anticipated that the Subcontractor will be required to staff between 60 to 120 interviewing
stations (depending on CDC funded activities). It is further anticipated that each station will be required to support, on average
between 20 and 30 hours per week. To support daily production, Subcontractor will provide a telephone center manager; staffed
monitoring stations; floor supervisors; and clerical support, as necessary, each day on which interviewing occurs.

 

The
Subcontractor will recruit, screen and hire prospective interviewers and supervisors in accordance with NORC’s requirements,
and to the extent available, it will assign interviewers and supervisors to work on NORC projects who are already working at Precision
Opinion. The Subcontractor will consult with NORC in the event that circumstances (e.g., rapid and significant ramp-up required
to meet a new Task Order) require the Subcontractor to recruit new interviewers to work on NORC projects. All Subcontractor data
collection personnel will attend the required project-specific training. A trained Subcontractor staff Member (along with NORC
personnel, as needed) will conduct training at Subcontractor’s telephone center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The training hours assume
Subcontractor will provide all orientation information and non-project specific training for its supervisors/monitors and interviewers.
For project specific training, interviewers will attend 18 hours of initial project training related to the Government’s
Task Order #1 (NIS-Core) and Task Order #2 (NIS-Teen) combined, 3 hours of refusal aversion training, and 2 hours refresher training
each quarter. Supervisors and monitors will attend 18 hours of initial interviewer project training, 15 hours of monitoring/supervisor
training, 3 hours of interviewer refusal aversion training, and 2 hours of interviewer refresher training each quarter. The hours
required for training are subject to change based on experience. NORC will provide train-the-trainer training, and all subsequent
trainings will be conducted by Subcontractor.

 

On
a monthly basis, the Subcontractor will submit production reports including hours charged by interviewer by project code. In addition,
Subcontractor telephone center manager and project manager will attend telephone conferences calls with NORC, as needed, at a
time mutually agreed upon by NORC and the Subcontractor.

 

The
Subcontractor will use its reasonable commercial efforts to complete Client Surveys in accordance with the performance thresholds
set forth in Section D below, “Reports and Deliverables.” Performance will be reviewed each week to monitor progress
toward the completed-interview and productivity goals. Performance indicators to be reviewed include hours per completed interview,
completed interviews to date, and proportion of interviews which include partially completed interviews, based on disposition
codes developed by NORC. In addition, the Subcontractor’s telephone supervisory staff will monitor 10% of all interviewer
hours using an audio-visual system and will adopt the quality assurance program of the NORC.

 

    	 

    	SUBCONTRACT AGREEMENT
7400. PRECISION OPINION .01
	Page 22

    

 

NORC
will train the Subcontractor on Schedule Source, a web-based tool used to schedule and track interviewer hours. The Subcontractor
will use this system on a daily basis.

 

Subcontractor
will provide workstations, including computers, telephones, and headsets, for interviewers and supervisors/monitors.

 

Subcontractor
will be responsible for complying with all confidentiality and security protections specified by the CDC.

 

C.       NORC’s
Responsibilities

 

Sample
will be centrally and remotely controlled from the Chicago office of NORC.

 

NORC
will provide the Subcontractor with the reports necessary to evaluate interviewer quality and production for both individual interviewers
and the subcontractor production facilities.

 

NORC
will establish VOIP communications line between NORC’s Chicago facility and the Subcontractor’s offices. NORC will also maintain
security measures on its servers in its Chicago facility.

 

D.       Reports
and Deliverables

 

Subcontractor
shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to satisfy the performance goals described below.

 

1.       Production
standards

 

The
overall targets are shown in the table below for each of the subcontract data collection years. The Subcontractor will agree
to negotiate in good faith revisions in the productivity goals, if necessitated by contract negotiations. Targets will be
provided when negotiated and approved by the CDC.

2.       Reports

 

On
a monthly basis, the Subcontractor will submit production reports including hours charged by interviewer by project code. In
addition, Subcontractor telephone center manager and project manager will attend telephone conferences calls with NORC, as
needed, at a time mutually agreed upon by NORC and the Subcontractor.

 

3.       Invoicing

 

Subcontractor
will provide monthly invoices to NORC including interviewer names, hours worked, quarter number, project name, and type of activity
(interviewing, training, refusal conversion, downtime).

 

4.       Other
considerations

 

In
the event that the contractor encounters difficulty in meeting the performance goals described in the table above, or when difficulties
are anticipated complying with the Subcontract deliverable schedule, or when Subcontractor has knowledge that any actual or potential
situation is delaying or threatens to delay the timely performance of this Subcontract, the Subcontractor shall promptly notify
the NORC Project Director in writing, giving pertinent details. Such notification shall not be construed as a waiver by NORC of
any deliverable productivity standard or date, or any rights or remedies provided under this Subcontract.

or employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress in connection with any of the following covered Federal actions;
the awarding of any Federal contract; the making of any Federal grant; the making of any Federal loan; the entering into of any

CDC0-H022 Smoke Free Working Environment (May 2009)

 

In
compliance with Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) regulations, all contractor personnel performing work within CDC/ATSDR
facilities shall observe the CDC/ATSDR smoke-free working environment policy at all times. This policy prohibits smoking in all
CDC/ATSDR buildings and in front of buildings which are open to the public. This policy is also applicable to contractor personnel
who do not work full-time within CDC/ATSDR facilities, but are attending meetings within CDC/ATSDR facilities.

 

(End

H.5
CDC0-H055: Smoke Free Environment Certification (February 2009)

 

The
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recognizes that secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure poses serious health risks to
nonsmokers. SHS exposure in the workplace has been linked to an increased risk for heart disease and lung cancer among adult nonsmokers.
SHS has been designated as a known carcinogen (cancer-causing agent) by the National Toxicology Program of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency and by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health has concluded that SHS is an occupational carcinogen. There is no risk-free level of SHS exposure. Separating smokers
from nonsmokers, cleaning the air, and ventilating buildings cannot eliminate this exposure. SHS is an important preventable cause
of death from cancer and other illnesses, and many Americans, both adults and children, remain at significant risk from SHS exposure.

 

It
is the CDC’s intent to protect the health of all CDC employees and reduce cancer and other serious health hazards
caused by SHS exposure. Therefore, all meetings and conferences organized and/or sponsored or co-sponsored by the CDC shall
be held in a conference venue that provides a smoke-free environment. A smoke- free conference venue is defined as a venue
that makes ALL public places in the hotel and in all meeting facilities smoke-free. This includes, but is not limited to,
meeting rooms, common areas such as lobbies and hallways, all indoor public spaces, all indoor employee work areas,
restaurants (including restaurant bar areas), and lounges.

 

Conferences
include symposia, seminars, workshops, and any other organized and formal meeting lasting one or more days, where CDC personnel
assemble to exchange information and views or explore or clarify a defined subject, problem, or area of knowledge.

 

CERTIFICATION:
Offeror’s acceptance of any resulting contract certifies that the meeting/conference venue provided is “smoke- free”
and that all CDC personnel attending said meeting/conference will be doing so in a smoke-free environment.

preclude contractor from becoming a competitor for any acquisition(s) resulting from this information. Therefore, if an employee
participates in any discussions relating to procurement-sensitive information, assists in developing any procurement-sensitive
information, or otherwise obtains any procurement-sensitive information during the course of performing duties at the CDC, contractor

I.7 52.237-3
Continuity of Services (Jan 1991)

 

(a)       The
Contractor recognizes that the services under this contract are vital to the Government and must be continued without interruption
and that, upon contract expiration, a successor, either the Government or another contractor, may continue them. The Contractor
agrees to—

 

(1)       Furnish
phase-in training; and

 

(2)       Exercise
its best efforts and cooperation to effect an orderly and efficient transition to a successor.

 

(b)       The
Contractor shall, upon the Contracting Officer’s written notice, (1) furnish phase-in, phase-out services for up to 90 days after
this contract expires and (2) negotiate in good faith a plan with a successor to determine the nature and extent of phase-in,
phase-out services required. The plan shall specify a training program and a date for transferring responsibilities for each division
of work described in the plan, and shall be subject to the Contracting Officer’s approval. The Contractor shall provide sufficient
experienced personnel during the phase-in, phase-out period to ensure that the services called for by this contract are maintained
at the required level of

proficiency.

 

(c)       The
Contractor shall allow as many personnel as practicable to remain on the job to help the successor maintain the continuity and
consistency of the services required by this contract. The Contractor also shall disclose necessary personnel records and allow
the successor to conduct on-site interviews with these employees. If selected employees are agreeable to the change, the Contractor
shall release them at a mutually agreeable date and negotiate transfer of their earned fringe benefits to the successor.

 

(d)       The
Contractor shall be reimbursed for all reasonable phase-in, phase-out costs (i.e., costs incurred within the agreed period after
contract expiration that result from phase-in, phase-out operations) and a fee (profit) not to exceed a pro rata portion of the
fee (profit) under this contract.
