3.             Expiration
Date. The Options granted hereby shall expire upon the ten year anniversary of the Effective Date (such date being the “Expiration

4.            Vesting.
The Options shall vest and be exercisable by the Participant as follows:

 

(a)           Participant’s option to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock shall become exercisable on the first anniversary of the
Effective Date (as defined in the Employment Agreement);

5.

(a)           If the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), then all
Options shall terminate.

 

(b)           If the Participant terminates his employment without Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement), then all Options shall
terminate on the date that is 90 days after the date of termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service (as defined
in the Plan), but not later than the Expiration Date.

 

(c)           In the event of Participant’s Disability (as defined in the Plan), the Participant may exercise the Options at any time
within one (1) year after the date of termination but not later than the Expiration Date.

 

(d)           In the event of Participant’s death or if a Participant should die within a period of 90 days after termination of the Participant’s
Continuous Service for reason other than Cause (as defined in the Plan), the personal representatives of the Participant’s
estate or the person or persons who shall have acquired the Options from the Participant by bequest or inheritance may exercise
the Options at any time within one (1) year after the date of death, but not later than the Expiration Date.

 

6.            Sale,
Merger or Dissolution. In the event of a Change in Control, the Company shall give the Participant notice thereof and the
Options, whether or not currently vested and exercisable, shall become immediately vested and exercisable immediately prior to
the effective date of such event, and the Board shall have the power and discretion to provide alternatives regarding the terms
and conditions for the exercise of, or modification of, the Options in accordance with the Plan.

 

7.            Non-Assignability.
The Option granted hereby and any right arising thereunder may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated (whether
by operation of law or otherwise), except by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, and the Options and any
rights arising thereunder shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. The Options shall be exercisable during
the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition
of an Option not specifically permitted herein or in the Plan shall be null and void and without effect.

 

8.         
  Mode of Exercise.

 

(a)          The
Options may be exercised by delivery of an irrevocable notice of exercise in by the Participant to the Company, stating the number
of shares being purchased.

 

(b)          The
right to receive the Shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon exercise of the Options shall be conditioned upon the delivery
by the Participant of payment for shares and withholding taxes incurred by reason of the exercise and certain representations,
if requested by the Administrator. Acceptable forms of consideration for exercising the Options may include:

 

(1)        cash, check or wire transfer (denominated in U.S. Dollars);

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

(2)        subject to the Company’s discretion to refuse for any reason and at any time to accept such consideration and subject to
any conditions or limitations established by the Administrator, other shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by the Participant
which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Options to be exercised;

 

(3)        delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to the Shares then issuable
upon exercise of the Options, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale
to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate payments required; provided, that payment of such proceeds is then made to the
Company upon settlement of such sale;

 

(4)        subject to the Company’s discretion to refuse for any reason and at any time to accept such consideration and subject to
any conditions or limitations established by the Administrator, cashless “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which
the Company will reduce the number of shares issued upon exercise by the largest whole number of shares having an aggregate Fair
Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price, together with required withholding amounts (if any), provided
that the Company shall accept a cash or other payment from the Participant to the extent of any remaining balance not satisfied
by such reduction in the number of whole shares to be issued;

 

(5)        such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares of Common Stock to the extent permitted by Applicable
Laws and acceptable to the Administrator; and

 

(6)        any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

 

9.            Recapitalization.
The number of Shares covered by the Options and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease
in the number or type of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification
of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt
of consideration by the Company.  The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have
been “effected without receipt of consideration.”  Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination
in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.  

 

10.          Plan
Controlling. This Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with the requirements of the Plan. Inconsistencies between
the requirements of this Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved according to the terms of the Plan. The Participant acknowledges
receipt of a copy of the Plan.

 

11.          Rights
Prior to Exercise of Option. The Participant shall not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject
to the Option prior to the date on which he is recorded as the holder of such Shares on the records of the Company.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

12.          Withholding Taxes. The Company shall have the right to require the Participant or his beneficiaries or legal representatives
to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements, including upon
the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option. Whenever payments under the Plan or this Agreement are to be made to any Participant
in cash, such payments shall be net of any amounts sufficient to satisfy all applicable taxes, including without limitation, all
applicable federal, state and local withholding tax requirements to be withheld or submitted by the Company concerning such payments.
The Board may, in its sole discretion, allow the Participant to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company
withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the
minimum amount required to be withheld.  The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date
that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined.

 

13.          Section
409A. The Options granted hereunder are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Code Section 409A, and
the Agreement shall be interpreted accordingly. In no event, however, shall the Company be liable to the Participant for any tax,
penalties or interest that may be due in respect of any the Options as a result of the application of Code Section 409A, except
to the extent that such tax, penalty or interest results from a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

 

14.          Governing Law. This Agreement and all rights arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance
with, the laws of the State of Colorado.

 

15.          Venue; Dispute Resolutions. This Agreement shall be subject to the venue and dispute resolution provisions set forth in Sections
17 and 18 of the Employment Agreement.

THEREOF, NOR SHALL THEY INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF, AS APPLICABLE, TO TERMINATE
THE PARTICIPANT’S EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE AT ANY TIME WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.
