Interim Chief Executive Officer

Gentlemen:

This letter outlines the terms and objectives of the services to be provided to Towerstream Corporation (the "Company") by me in connection with the services as described below.

If you are satisfied with the arrangement described in this letter, please indicate your agreement by signing in the space provided on the last page and returning a copy to me.

1)      SCOPE OF SERVICES

I will fulfill the role of Chief Financial Officer and assume all the responsibilities and perform all the duties normally associated with such a position. In that connection:

2)      TERM

The Company and I agree that compensating me on a weekly basis would be an equitable arrangement for both parties. In recognition of the length of the term of this engagement and the number of days of services requested for each week, my hourly rate is $160 per hour. Assuming four days each week as previous described in Paragraph #1(c) and eight hours each day, this would equate to $5,120 per week. This rate will be fixed through December 31, 2016.

I will invoice the Company on the 15th and the last day of each month for services performed during the weeks ended within those periods. The Company agrees to pay such invoices within seven calendar days of receipt and, if possible, via ACH electronic transfer to the following account:

The Company agrees to remit a retainer of $10,000 upon the signing of this agreement. This retainer will be applied to reduce the amount due on my final invoice(s).

Expenses incurred by me will be invoiced on a weekly basis. Such weekly expenses are expected to be limited to transportation via my personal car to the Company's offices, lodging at a nearby hotels suggested by the Company, and meals.

4)      THE FINE PRINT

I appreciate the opportunity to be of service to Towerstream and help you to achieve your objectives. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact me at 609-802-6466 or frederick@larcombe.us.

Sincerely,

/s/   Frederick Larcombe

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Confidential Information” shall not include any information, data, or material which, at the time of disclosure or use, was generally available to the public other than by a breach of this Agreement, was available to the party to whom disclosed on a non-confidential basis by disclosure or access provided by the Company or a third party without breaching any obligations of the Company or such third party, or was otherwise developed or obtained legally and independently by the person to whom disclosed without a breach of this Agreement. This Section 6(i) shall not preclude Employee from disclosing Confidential Information if compelled to do so by law or valid legal process, provided that if Employee believes Employee is so compelled by law or valid legal process, Employee will notify the Company in writing sufficiently in advance of any such disclosure to allow the Company the opportunity to defend, limit, or otherwise protect its interests against such disclosure unless such notice is prohibited by law. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Section 6(i) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

(ii)      Non-Compete .

The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Section 6(ii) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason. Employee agrees that, for a period of three months following the Effective Date, he will not, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of himself or any third party, solicit any customers of the Company with respect to products or services competitive with products or services then being sold by the Company.

Employee agrees that he will not, at any time during the 12 months after the Termination Date, for his own account or benefit or for the account or benefit of any other person, firm or entity, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment any employee of the Company (or any person who was an employee of the Company in the 90-day period before such solicitation) or induce any employee of the Company (or any person who was an employee of the Company in the 90-day period before such inducement) to terminate his employment with the Company. Notwithstanding the above, the restrictions relating to persons employed in the 90-day period referenced in the parentheticals in the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to a person who was a party to an employment agreement with the Company and who terminates her employment for Good Reason or is terminated by the Company without Cause. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Section 6(iii) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

(iv)      Proprietary Matters . Employee expressly agrees that any and all improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how that are generated or conceived by Employee during the term of his employment or the during the Term, whether conceived during Employee’s regular working hours or otherwise, will be the sole and exclusive property of the Company. Whenever requested by the Company (either during the Term or thereafter), Employee will assign or execute any and all applications, assignments and/or other documents, and do all things which the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate, in order to permit the Company to: (a) assign and convey, or otherwise make available to the Company, the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to said improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes or know-how; or (b) apply for, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend patents, copyrights, trade names, or trademarks of the United States or of foreign countries for said improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how. However, the improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how generated or conceived by Employee and referred to in the Section 6.1(iv) (except those which may be included in the patents, copyrights, or registered trade names or trademarks of the Company) will not be exclusive property of the Company at any time after having been disclosed or revealed or have otherwise become available to the public or to a third party on a non-confidential basis other than by a breach of the Agreement or after they have been independently developed or discussed without a breach of this Agreement by a third party who has no obligation to the Company.

The parties acknowledge and agree that the right to such injunctive relief shall be cumulative and shall not be in lieu of, or be construed as a waiver of the Company’s right to pursue, any other remedies to which it may be entitled in law or in equity. The Parties agree that for purposes of Sections 6(i) through 6(iv) of the Agreement, the term “Company” shall include the Company and its affiliates.

Immediately upon the Termination Date, Employee must return to the Company all keys, key cards, iPad, cell phones, personal computers/laptops, jump drives, and other equipment issued or loaned to Employee during his employment with the Company.

7.      Assistance with Claims . Employee agrees that, throughout the Term and thereafter, Employee will assist the Company in the defense of any claims that may be made against the Company and will assist the Company in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by the Company, to the extent such claims may relate to services performed by Employee for the Company. Employee agrees to promptly inform the Company if Employee becomes aware of any lawsuits or potential claims that may be filed against the Company. For any assistance occurring after termination of Employee’s employment by the Company, the Company agrees to provide reasonable compensation to Employee for such assistance. Employee also agrees to promptly inform the Company if asked to assist in any investigation of the Company (or its actions) that may relate to services performed by Employee for the Company, regardless of whether a lawsuit has been filed against the Company with respect to such investigation.
