Certain capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings as set forth in Section 16 of this Agreement.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to enter into an agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment with the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants, agreements and understandings contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Employment. The Company shall employ Executive, and Executive hereby accepts employment with the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending as provided in Section 4 hereof (the “Employment Period”).

2. Position and Duties.

(a) During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as the Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company, and shall have the normal duties, responsibilities and authority of such offices.

(b) Executive shall devote Executive’s reasonable best efforts and substantially all of Executive’s business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods, reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity, and reasonable time for participation in charitable or professional affiliation organizations) to the business and affairs of the Company and its Affiliates. Executive shall perform Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the best of Executive’s abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, businesslike and efficient manner. Executive shall comply with all Company policies and procedures and all applicable local, state, and federal laws.

3. Base Salary; Benefits and Bonuses.

(a) At the beginning of the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary shall be Three Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$300,000) per annum (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices as may be in effect from time to time. The Base Salary shall be subject to deduction and withholding authorized or required by applicable law. In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to receive such perquisites and fringe benefits and participate in all of the Company’s employee benefit programs and/or plans for which senior executive employees of the Company are generally eligible in accordance with the policies of the Company in effect from time to time. Upon the successful closing of an S-1 for new financing by the Company, the Base Salary shall be increased to a to be determined amount. In addition, on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on each anniversary thereafter, then current base salary will be increased by a to be determined amount per year.

(b) Executive will be eligible to receive an annual bonus, with a target bonus opportunity equal to 30% of Executive’s then-current base salary, based upon the Company’s achievement of performance and management objectives as set and approved by the CEO of the Company, in consultation with the Executive. The annual bonus shall be paid on or before March 31 of the year following the year in which the bonus is earned. Executive must be employed by the Company on the date of payment in order to earn and receive any annual bonus, unless Executive is terminated without Cause or resigns with Good Reason. For calendar year 2020, such bonus will be prorated for the approximately 2 months after the Effective Date. In addition, the bonus will be adjusted upon the successful closing of an S-1 for new financing by the Company.

(c) Concurrent with the parties entry into this Agreement, the Company shall grant the Executive an incentive stock option to purchase 180,000 shares of the fully diluted outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Options”). The Options shall have a term of 10 years; an exercise price equal to the Fair Market Value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant; as defined in the Company’s 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), shall be subject to such Plan, shall be evidenced by a stock option agreement entered into by the Company, and shall vest at the rate of (a) 1/5^th of such Options on the execution date of this Agreement; and (b) the remaining 4/5^th of such options will vest ratably on a monthly basis over the following 36 months, on the last day of each calendar month; provided, however, that the equity awards will vest immediately upon Executive’s death or disability (as defined in section 4(b)), termination without Cause or a termination by Executive for Good Reason, a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Company’s equity incentive plan or agreement) or upon a sale of the Company. Such equity awards shall be subject to such other provisions to be set forth in Company’s equity incentive plan. Future equity rewards will be recommended by the Company’s CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Future equity grants will be determined in future years.

(d) Executive was a consultant to an affiliate of the Company with a compensation of US$10,000 per month (“Consulting Agreement”). Entering into this agreement terminates that consulting agreement and the Company acknowledges that any amounts outstanding under the Consulting Agreement is now an obligation of the Company and will pay the Executive this backpay in due course. As the Executive’s Base Salary is effective as of the Effective Date, compensation paid under the Consulting Agreement since the Effective Date will be offset against the Executives Base Salary until the date of termination of such Consulting Agreement.

(e) The Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred by Executive in the course of performing Executive’s duties under this Agreement, which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses.

(b) Upon a termination of the Employment Period, other than a termination prior to the end of the Employment Period by the Company without Cause or by the Executive within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of Good Reason, all future compensation or bonuses to which Executive would otherwise be entitled and all future benefits for which Executive would otherwise be eligible shall cease and terminate as of the date of such termination; provided, that Executive shall receive any salary earned through the date of termination, payable pursuant to the Company’s general payroll practices as may be in effect from time to time and subject to deduction and withholding authorized or required by applicable law.

(e) Executive expressly covenants and agrees that for a period two years following termination, Executive will not, and Executive will cause Executive’s affiliates not to (i) engage or employ, or solicit or contact with a view to the engagement or employment of, any person who is an officer or employee of the Company or any of its affiliates or (ii) canvass, solicit, approach or entice away or cause to be canvassed, solicited, approached or enticed away from the Company or any of its affiliates any person who or which is a customer of any of such entities during the period during which Executive is employed by the Company.

5. Confidential Information. The Company will provide Executive with confidential and proprietary information concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its Affiliates, and Executive acknowledges that such information, along with other data and observations obtained by Executive while employed by the Company (prior to or after the date hereof) (“Confidential Information”) shall be the property of the Company or such Affiliate. Therefore, Executive agrees that Executive shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for Executive’s own purposes any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Board, unless and to the extent that (a) the aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions, or (b) the disclosure of Confidential· Information is made in response to a valid order of a court or other governmental body, or was otherwise required by law. Executive shall deliver to the Company at the termination of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes, printouts and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information, Work Product (as defined below) or the business of the Company or any Affiliate which Executive may then possess or have under Executive’s control.

6. Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods,· designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to the Company’s or any of its Affiliates’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive while employed by the Company and its Affiliates (“Work Product”) belong to the Company or such Affiliate. Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

7. Enforcement. If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 5 or 6 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to Confidential Information and Work Product, the parties hereto agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Company or its successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). Executive agrees that the restrictions contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement are reasonable.

8. Withholding. The Company and its Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Affiliates to Executive under this Agreement between the Company and any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Executive and any of his Affiliates, on the other hand, any United States federal, state or local or non-United States withholding taxes, excise taxes or employment taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from the Company or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement (including wages and bonuses). In the event that the Company or any of its Affiliates incorrectly makes or fails to make such deductions or withholdings, (a) Executive shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of a reasonably detailed written notice from the Company, reimburse the Company and its Affiliates for any such amounts paid by the Company with respect to Taxes attributable to Executive but not deducted or withheld from Executive by the Company and (b) the Company and its Affiliates shall, within thirty (30) calendar days after the Company determines that it has incorrectly made any deduction or withholding, pay to the Executive any amounts deducted or withheld from Executive in excess of the Taxes attributable to Executive (to the extent such amounts have not been paid to a government authority).

9. Insurance. The Company or any of its Affiliates may, at its discretion, apply for and procure in its own name and for its own benefit life and/or disability insurance on Executive in any amount or amounts considered advisable. Executive agrees to cooperate in any medical or other examination, supply any information and execute and deliver any applications or other instruments in writing as may be reasonably necessary to obtain and constitute such insurance.

11. Executive’s Cooperation. During the Employment Period and at any time thereafter, Executive shall, at reasonable times and with due regard for his other obligations, cooperate with the Company and its Affiliates in any internal investigation, any administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding or any dispute with a third Person as reasonably requested by the Company or any of its Affiliates (including Executive being available to the Company and its Affiliates upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s or any of its Affiliates’ request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company and its Affiliates all pertinent information and turning over to the Company and its Affiliates all relevant documents which are or may come into the Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with the Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments).
