2.7              Certain Definitions. As used in this Section 2:

(b)               “Net Operating Income” shall mean the difference of gross income less cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses, operating expenses, depreciation, interest, taxes and other expenses, each determined on a generally accepted accounting principles basis of accounting.

ARTICLE III
TERMINATION; EQUITY

3.1              Commencement of Employment Term. Employee’s employment shall commence on the Effective Date of this Agreement.

3.2              Right to Terminate; Automatic Termination.

(a)               Termination for Cause. The Company shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement for Cause (as defined below) effective immediately in the event of (a) Employee’s material breach of any agreement between Employee and the Company; (b) Employee’s conviction of, or Employee’s plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any State, provided, however, that such felony is not related to the manufacture, sale or possession of cannabis or any components thereof; (c) Employee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the provision of services for the Company; or (d) Employee’s failure to cooperate in good faith with a governmental or internal investigation of the Company or its managers, officers or employees (collectively, “Cause”); provided, however, that if any such event by its nature is capable of being cured with no adverse effect to the Company, and Employee is taking reasonable and diligent steps to cure such event, then such termination shall be effective only if such event remains uncured for a period of thirty calendar days after the Company provides written notice to Employee setting forth the nature of the event constituting Cause hereunder.

(b)               Termination Upon Death or Disability. Subject to Section 3.3, Employee’s employment and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, unless specifically stated otherwise herein, shall terminate: (i) automatically, effective immediately and without any notice being necessary, upon Employee’s death; and (ii) in the event of any Disability of Employee, by the Company giving notice of termination to Employee. As used in this Section 3.2(b), “Disability” shall mean that (A) Employee is unable, by reason of an injury, a sickness or accident, to perform Employee’s duties under this Agreement for an aggregate of sixty (60) days in any consecutive six (6) month period, or (B) Employee has a guardian of the person or estate appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

3.3              Rights Upon Termination. If Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 3.2, or if Employee quits employment, notwithstanding the terms of this Agreement, Employee or Employee’s estate shall have no further rights against the Company hereunder, except for the right to receive, (i) any earned but unpaid Base Salary and Incentive Bonuses, (ii) reimbursement of expenses to which Employee is entitled pursuant to Section 2.4, and (iii) Employee shall be deemed to resign from any board to which Employee has been appointed or nominated by or on behalf of the Company. If Employee is terminated (but not for cause) within the first twelve (12) months of his employment, then Employee will receive a total of three (3) months of Base Salary (subject to standard deductions and withholdings for taxes) as a severance payment, payable in equal payments on regularly scheduled pay days following the termination of his employment. For every year of full-time employment completed beyond the initial twelve (12) months, the amount of such severance payment will be increased by one (1) month of Base Salary. For example, if Employee successfully completes full-time employment for Company for twenty-four (24) months and is terminated for any reason but “for cause” during his twenty-fifth (25^th) month of employment, then Employee will receive four (4) months of Base Salary (subject to normal deductions for taxes, etc.) as severance. To the extent reasonably possible, Company will continue Employee’s Plans during any severance payment period or, in the alternative, provide you with the amount of money which otherwise would have been paid for such Plans during that time period. To be clear, if Employee is terminated “for cause” by Company or one of its affiliates, as applicable, then Employee will not be eligible for any severance payments or continuation of Plans beyond the termination date.

Employee recognizes that the Company may have received and in the future may receive from third parties associated with the Company, e.g., the Company’s customers, suppliers, licensors, licensees, partners, or collaborators (“Associated Third Parties”), their confidential or proprietary information (“Associated Third Party Confidential Information”). By way of example, and not as an exhaustive list, Associated Third Party Confidential Information may include the habits or practices of Associated Third Parties, the technology of Associated Third Parties, requirements of Associated Third Parties, and information related to the business conducted between the Company and such Associated Third Parties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in the course of his employment with the Company, Employee incorporates into or uses in connection with any product, process, service, technology, or other work by or on behalf of the Company any Prior Invention, Employee hereby grants to the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license, with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses, to make, have made, modify, use, import, offer for sale, and sell such Prior Invention as part of or in connection with such product, process, service, technology, or other work, and to practice any method related thereto.

Employee further acknowledges that all original works of authorship that are made by him (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the period of his employment with the Company and that are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire,” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act.

(c)               Maintenance of Records. Employee agrees to keep and maintain adequate, current, accurate, and authentic written records of all Inventions made by him (solely or jointly with others) during the term of his employment with the Company. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, electronic files, reports, or any other format that may be specified by the Company. The records are and will be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times.

(d)               Patent and Copyright Registrations. Employee agrees to reasonably assist the Company, or its designee, at the Company’s expense, in every proper way to secure the Company’s rights in the Inventions and any rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to the Company of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments, and all other instruments that the Company shall deem proper or necessary in order to apply for, register, obtain, maintain, defend, and enforce such rights, and in order to assign and convey to the Company, its successors, assigns, and nominees the sole and exclusive rights, title, and interest in and to such Inventions and any rights relating thereto, and testifying in a suit or other proceeding relating to such Inventions and any rights relating thereto. Employee further agrees that his obligation to execute or cause to be executed, when it is in his power to do so, any such instrument or papers shall continue after the termination of this Agreement. If the Company is unable because of Employee’s mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason to secure Employee’s signature with respect to any Inventions, including, without limitation, to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents or copyright registrations covering such Inventions, then Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as his agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in his behalf and stead, to execute and file any papers and oaths, and to do all other lawfully permitted acts with respect to such Inventions with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Employee.

5.2              Entire Agreement; Survival. This Agreement contains the entire understanding and the full and complete agreement of the parties and supersedes and replaces any prior understandings and agreements among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement, or of Employee’s employment for any reason, to the extent necessary to enable the parties to enforce their respective rights.

5.3              Amendment; Headings and References. This Agreement may be altered, amended or modified only in writing, signed by Employee and the Company, except that either party hereto may update its address set forth in Section 5.1 by providing a notice of the updated address in the manner set forth in Section 5.1. Headings included in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not intended to limit or expand the rights of the parties hereto. References to Sections herein shall mean sections of the text of this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated.

5.4              Assignability. This Agreement and the rights and duties set forth herein may not be assigned by either of the parties without the express written prior consent of the other party. This Agreement shall be binding on, and inure to the benefit of, each party and such party’s respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

5.5              Severability. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall have no effect on the other provisions hereof, which shall remain valid, binding and enforceable and in full force and effect, and such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be construed in a manner so as to give the maximum valid and enforceable effect to the intent of the parties expressed therein.

5.6              Waiver of Breach. The waiver by either party of the breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by either party.

5.7              Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Construction. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Texas, without regard to any rules of construction that would require application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Any legal proceeding related to this Agreement must be litigated in an appropriate Texas state or federal court sitting in Dallas County, Texas, and both the Company and Employee hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of Texas for this purpose; waive any objection they may now or hereafter have to venue or to convenience of forum and agree that all legal proceedings will be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction in Dallas County, Texas by a judge without a jury.

5.8              Tax Compliance.

(a)               The Company may withhold from any amounts payable hereunder any amounts required to be withheld under federal, state or local law and any other deductions authorized in writing by Employee.

(b)               The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Section 409A”), and the Company shall have complete discretion to interpret and construe this Agreement and any associated documents in any manner that establishes an exemption from (or compliance with) the requirements of Section 409A.  If for any reason, such as imprecision in drafting, any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation, including, without limitation, equity compensation or benefits) does not accurately reflect its intended establishment of an exemption from (or compliance with) Section 409A, as demonstrated by consistent interpretations or other evidence of intent, such provision shall be considered ambiguous as to its exemption from (or compliance with) Section 409A and shall be interpreted by the Company in a manner consistent with such intent, as determined in the discretion of the Company.

(c)               For purposes of Section 409A, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

(d)               With respect to any reimbursement of expenses of, or any provision of in-kind benefits to, Employee, as specified under this Agreement, such reimbursement of expenses or provision of in-kind benefits shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year, except for any medical reimbursement arrangement providing for the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code; (ii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(e)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Employee is a “specified employee” as determined pursuant to Section 409A as of the date of Employee’s “separation from service” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (or any successor regulation) and if any payments or entitlements provided for in this Agreement constitute a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and cannot be paid or provided in the manner provided herein without subjecting Employee to additional tax, interest or penalties under Section 409A, then any such payment or entitlement which is payable during the first six (6) months following Employee’s “separation from service” shall be paid or provided to Employee in a cash lump-sum on the first business day of the seventh (7th) calendar month immediately following the month in which Employee’s “separation from service” occurs or, if earlier, upon Employee’s death. In addition, any payments or benefits due hereunder upon a termination of Employee’s employment which are a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall only be payable or provided to Employee (or Employee’s estate) upon a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A.

(f)                Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (for example, “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.  In no event may Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this Agreement, to the extent such payment is subject to Code Section 409A.

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

5.9              Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile or other electronic transmission.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Shares” shall mean the Restricted Stock granted under this Agreement, and all securities received (i) in replacement of the Restricted Stock, (ii) as a result of stock dividends or stock splits with respect to the Restricted Stock, and (iii) in replacement of the Restricted Stock in a merger, recapitalization, reorganization or similar corporate transaction.

2.                   Award and Vesting of Shares.

A.                 Award. The Restricted Stock shall be awarded to Grantee in the following amounts, at the following times and upon the following conditions, provided that the Continuous Service of Grantee continues through and on the applicable Award Date:

The Restricted Stock will be issued by the Company to the Grantee on the First Award Date and on the Second Award Date in accordance with this Agreement and will not otherwise be issued or held in escrow or otherwise be outstanding prior to their issuance under this Agreement.

B.                  Vesting. The First Award of Restricted Stock shall vest on the 12-month anniversary of the First Award Date (the “First Vesting Date”) provided that the Continuous Service of Grantee continues through such date. The Second Award of Restricted Stock shall vest on the 12-month anniversary of the Second Award Date (the “Second Vesting Date”) provided that the Continuous Service of Grantee continues through such date (such Second Vesting Date, together with First Vesting Date each a “Vesting Date” with respect to the applicable Shares of Restricted Stock).

C.                  Acceleration of Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2(C) and in Section 4 of this Agreement, there shall be no proportionate or partial vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock in or during the months, days or periods prior to each Vesting Date, and all vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock shall occur only on the applicable Vesting Date.

(1)                Acceleration of Vesting Upon Change in Control. In the event that a Change in Control of the Company occurs during Grantee’s Continuous Service, the Shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement shall become immediately vested in Grantee’s favor as of the date of the Change in Control.

(2)                Acceleration of Vesting at Company Discretion. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) shall be authorized, in its sole discretion, based upon its review and evaluation of the performance of Grantee and of the Company, to accelerate the vesting of any Shares of Restricted Stock under this Agreement, at such times and upon such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem advisable.

(3)                Adjustment to Number of Shares. In the event of a forward or reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding Shares of Common Stock of the Company, a Common Stock dividend or distribution, an asset distribution, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction by the Company which would customarily result in an adjustment to the number of Shares of Common Stock issuable or outstanding under other outstanding securities of the Company, then the number of Shares subject to vesting and issuance under this Agreement will automatically be adjusted upward or downward, as the case may be, proportionately and appropriately.

D.                 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

3.                   Delivery of Restricted Stock.

A.                  Issuance of Stock Certificates and Legends. One or more stock certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock shall be issued in the name of Grantee but shall be held and retained by the Company until the Vesting Date on which the Shares (or a portion thereof) subject to this Restricted Stock award become Vested Shares pursuant to Section 2 hereof, subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof. All such stock certificates shall bear the following legends, along with such other legends that the Board shall deem necessary and appropriate or which are otherwise required or indicated pursuant to any applicable stockholders agreement:

THE COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE OR INSTRUMENT MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION COMPLIES WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THAT CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN MR. BRIAN D. MOON AND FREEDOM LEAF INC. (THE “COMPANY”), DATED AS OF AUGUST 28, 2019 (A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE COMPANY; THE “RSA”). EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE RSA, NO TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE EXCEPT (A) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR (B) IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH A SATISFACTORY OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER THAT SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5 OF THE ACT AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS IN EFFECT THEREUNDER.

B.                  Stop-Transfer Instructions. Grantee agrees that, to ensure compliance with the restrictions imposed by this Agreement, the Company may issue appropriate “stop-transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

C.                  Stock Powers. Grantee shall deposit with the Company stock powers or other instruments of transfer or assignment, duly endorsed in blank with signature(s) guaranteed, corresponding to each certificate representing Shares of Restricted Stock until such Shares become Vested Shares. If Grantee shall fail to provide the Company with any such stock power or other instrument of transfer or assignment, Grantee hereby irrevocably appoints the Secretary of the Company as his attorney-in-fact, with full power of appointment and substitution, to execute and deliver any such power or other instrument which may be necessary to effectuate the transfer of the Restricted Stock (or assignment of distributions thereon) on the books and records of the Company.

D.                 Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares, or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares have been so transferred.

E.                  Delivery of Stock Certificates. On or after each Vesting Date, upon written request to the Company by Grantee, the Company shall promptly cause a new certificate or certificates to be issued to Grantee for and with respect to all Shares that become Vested Shares on that Vesting Date, which certificate(s) shall be delivered to Grantee as soon as administratively practicable after the date of receipt by the Company of Grantee’s written request. The new certificate or certificates shall continue to bear those legends and endorsements that the Company shall deem necessary or appropriate (including those relating to restrictions on transferability and/or obligations and restrictions under applicable securities laws).

F.                  Issuance Without Certificates. If the Company is authorized to issue Shares without certificates, then the Company may, in the discretion of the Board, issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement without certificates, in which case any references in this Agreement to certificates shall instead refer to whatever evidence may be issued to reflect Grantee’s ownership of the Shares subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

4.                   Forfeiture of Non-Vested Shares. If Grantee’s Continuous Service with the Company is terminated for any reason, all Non-Vested Shares shall be forfeited immediately upon such termination of Continuous Service and revert back to the Company without any payment to Grantee. The Board shall have the power and authority to enforce on behalf of the Company any rights of the Company under this Agreement in the event of Grantee’s forfeiture of Non-Vested Shares pursuant to this Section 4.

5.                   Rights with Respect to Restricted Stock.

A.                 General. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Grantee shall have, with respect to all of the Shares of Restricted Stock, whether Vested Shares or Non-Vested Shares, all of the rights of a holder of Shares of Common Stock of the Company, including without limitation (i) the right to vote such Restricted Stock, (ii) the right to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared on the Restricted Stock from time to time, and (iii) the rights available to all holders of Shares of Common Stock of the Company upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or dissolution, stock split-up, stock dividend or recapitalization undertaken by the Company; provided, however, that all of such rights shall be subject to the terms, provisions, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation conditions under which all such rights shall be forfeited). Any Shares issued to Grantee as a dividend with respect to Shares of Restricted Stock shall have the same status and bear the same legend as the Shares of Restricted Stock and shall be held by the Company, if the Shares of Restricted Stock that such dividend is attributed to is being so held, unless otherwise determined by the Board.

B.                  No Restrictions on Certain Transactions. Notwithstanding any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the existence of this Agreement, or of any outstanding Restricted Stock awarded hereunder, shall not affect in any manner the right, power or authority of the Company to make, authorize or consummate: (i) any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business; (ii) any merger, consolidation or similar transaction by or of the Company; (iii) any offer, issue or sale by the Company of any capital stock of the Company, including any equity or debt securities, or preferred or preference stock that would rank prior to or on parity with the Restricted Stock and/or that would include, have or possess other rights, benefits and/or preferences superior to those that the Restricted Stock includes, has or possesses, or any warrants, options or rights with respect to any of the foregoing; (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; (v) any sale, transfer or assignment of all or any part of the stock, assets or business of the Company; or (vi) any other corporate transaction, act or proceeding (whether of a similar character or otherwise).

C.                  Transferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Shares of Restricted Stock are not transferable unless and until the later of (i) the date that is twelve (12) months after the date hereof and (ii) the date such Shares become Vested Shares in accordance with this Agreement, otherwise than by will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Grantee. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5(C), any attempt to effect a Transfer of any Shares of Restricted Stock prior to the date on which the Shares become Vested Shares shall be void ab initio. For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer” shall mean any sale, transfer, encumbrance, gift, donation, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition, whether similar or dissimilar to those previously enumerated, whether voluntary or involuntary, and including, but not limited to, any disposition by operation of law, by court order, by judicial process, or by foreclosure, levy or attachment.

6.                   Representations and Warranties of Grantee. Grantee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

A.                 Terms of this Agreement. Grantee has received a copy of this Agreement, has read and understands the terms of this Agreement, and agrees to be bound by its terms and conditions.

B.                  Acceptance of Shares for Own Account for Investment. Grantee is acquiring the Shares for Grantee’s own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, a distribution of the Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Grantee has no present intention of selling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion of the Shares.

C.                  Access to Information. Grantee has had access to all information regarding the Company and its present and prospective business, assets, liabilities and financial condition that Grantee reasonably considers important in making the decision to acquire the Shares, and Grantee has had ample opportunity to ask questions of the Company’s representatives concerning such matters and this investment.

D.                 Understanding of Risks. Grantee is fully aware of: (i) the highly speculative nature of the investment in the Shares; (ii) the financial hazards involved; (iii) the lack of liquidity of the Shares and the restrictions on transferability of the Shares (e.g., that Grantee may not be able to sell or dispose of the Shares or use them as collateral for loans); (iv) the qualifications and backgrounds of the management of the Company; and (v) the tax consequences of an investment in the Shares. Grantee is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment, has the ability to protect Grantee’s own interests in this transaction and is financially capable of bearing a total loss of this investment.

E.                  Accredited Investor. Grantee is an “accredited investor” pursuant to Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

F.                  No General Solicitation. At no time was Grantee presented with or solicited by any publicly issued newspaper, mail, radio, television or other form of general advertising or solicitation in connection with the offer, sale and issue of the Shares.

G.                 Compliance with Securities Laws. Grantee understands and acknowledges that the Shares have not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act and that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the issuance of any Shares is expressly conditioned upon compliance with the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws. Grantee agrees to cooperate in good faith (but at no material cost to Grantee) with the Company to ensure compliance with such laws.

H.                 No Transfers Unless Registered or Exempt. Grantee understands that Grantee may not transfer any Shares unless such Shares are registered under the Securities Act and qualified under applicable state securities laws or unless, in the good faith opinion of counsel to the Company, exemptions from such registration and qualification requirements are available. Grantee understands that only the Company may file a registration statement with the SEC and that the Company is under no obligation to do so with respect to the Shares. Grantee has also been advised that exemptions from registration and qualification may not be available or may not permit Grantee to transfer all or any of the Shares in the amounts or at the times proposed by Grantee.

I.                    SEC Rule 144. In addition, Grantee has been advised that SEC Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which permits certain limited sales of unregistered securities, may not always be available with respect to the Shares and, in any event, requires that the Shares be held for a minimum of six months, and in certain cases one (1) year, after they have been acquired before they may be resold under Rule 144. Grantee understands that Rule 144 may indefinitely restrict transfer of the Shares so long as Grantee remains an “affiliate” of the Company or if “current public information” about the Company (as defined in Rule 144) is not publicly available.

J.                    Market Standoff Agreement. Grantee agrees in connection with any registration of the Company’s securities that, upon the request of the Company or the underwriters managing any public offering of the Company’s securities, Grantee shall not sell or otherwise dispose of any Shares without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) after the effective date of such registration that is requested by such underwriters and subject to all restrictions as the Company or the underwriters may specify. Grantee further agrees to enter into any agreement reasonably required by the underwriters to implement the foregoing.

7.                   Tax Matters; Section 83(b) Election.

A.                 Section 83(b) Election. If Grantee properly elects, within thirty (30) days of the applicable Award Date, to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes an amount equal to the fair market value (as of the applicable Award Date) of the Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Grantee shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company any federal, state or local income taxes required to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock. If Grantee shall fail to make such tax payments as are required, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be issued to Grantee under this Agreement) otherwise due to Grantee any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.

B.                  No Section 83(b) Election. If Grantee does not properly make the election described in paragraph 7(A) above, Grantee shall, no later than the date or dates as of which the restrictions referred to in this Agreement hereof shall lapse, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Board for payment of, any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the vesting thereof), and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind (including without limitation, the withholding of any Shares that otherwise would be distributed to Grantee under this Agreement) otherwise due to Grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock.

C.                  Satisfaction of Withholding Requirements. Grantee may satisfy the withholding requirements with respect to the Restricted Stock pursuant to any one or combination of the following methods: (a) payment in cash; or (b) if and to the extent permitted by the Board, payment by surrendering unrestricted previously held Shares which have a value equal to the required withholding amount or the withholding of Shares that otherwise would be deliverable to Grantee pursuant to this Award. Grantee may surrender Shares either by attestation or by delivery of a certificate or certificates for Shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, and if required with medallion level signature guarantee by a member firm of a national stock exchange, by a national or state bank (or guaranteed or notarized in such other manner as the Board may require).

D.                 Grantee’s Responsibilities for Tax Consequences. Tax consequences on Grantee (including without limitation federal, state, local and foreign income tax consequences) with respect to the Restricted Stock (including without limitation the grant, vesting and/or forfeiture thereof) are the sole responsibility of Grantee. Grantee shall consult with his or her own personal accountant(s) and/or tax advisor(s) regarding these matters, the making of a Section 83(b) election, and Grantee’s filing, withholding and payment (or tax liability) obligations.

E.                  Amendment, Modification & Assignment; Non-Transferability. This Agreement may only be modified or amended in a writing signed by both the Company and the Grantee. No promises, assurances, commitments, agreements, undertakings or representations, whether oral, written, electronic or otherwise, and whether express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof, have been made by either party which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Company, in its sole discretion, this Agreement (and Grantee’s rights hereunder) may not be assigned, and the obligations of Grantee hereunder may not be delegated, in whole or in part. The rights and obligations created hereunder shall be binding on Grantee and his heirs and legal representatives and on the successors and assigns of the Company.

D.                 No Trust or Fund Created. Neither this Agreement nor the grants of Restricted Stock hereunder shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Related Entity and Grantee or any other person.

Section 409A.

(1)                It is intended that the Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) because it is believed that the Agreement does not provide for a deferral of compensation and accordingly that the Agreement does not constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with this intention, and the provisions of this Agreement shall not be amended, adjusted, assumed or substituted for, converted or otherwise modified without Grantee’s prior written consent if and to the extent that the Company believes or reasonably should believe that such amendment, adjustment, assumption or substitution, conversion or modification would cause the award to violate the requirements of Section 409A.

(2)                In the event that either the Company or Grantee believes, at any time, that any benefit or right under this Agreement is subject to Section 409A, and does not comply with the requirements of Section 409A, it shall promptly advise the other and the Company and Grantee shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights, if such an amendment may be made in a commercially reasonable manner, such that they comply with Section 409A with the most limited possible economic effect on Grantee and on the Company.

(3)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to Grantee that the Shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfies, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless Grantee or any beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that Grantee or any beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof or any other action taken with respect thereto that either is consented to by Grantee or that the Company reasonably believes should not result in a violation of Section 409A, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A

I.                    Non-Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party hereto of the other party’s prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effected solely in a writing signed by such party, and shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation, and the waiver by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which he or it may possess shall not operate nor be construed as the waiver of such right or remedy by such party, or as a bar to the exercise of such right or remedy by such party, upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation.

J.                    Reliance on Counsel and Advisors. Grantee acknowledges that Kleinberg, Kaplan, Wolff & Cohen, P.C., is representing only the Company in this transaction. Grantee acknowledges that he or she has had the opportunity to review this Agreement, including all attachments hereto, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with his or her own legal counsel, tax advisors and other advisors. Grantee is relying solely on his or her own counsel and advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or its agents for legal or other advice with respect to this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

K.                 Counterparts.
