(ii) The Executive’s committing any act of fraud, embezzlement, or theft;
(iii) The Executive’s material violation of the Company’s policies;
(iv) The Executive’s behavior or engagement in any acts that may interfere with the ability of the Company or any of its affiliates to maintain a license to harvest, cultivate, process, or sell cannabis or otherwise continue to operate its business;
(v) The Executive’s breach of any non-disclosure, non-disparagement, non-competition, non-solicitation, assignment of inventions agreement or other restrictive covenants set forth herein, other than the Executive’s inadvertent and immaterial breach of any non-competition or non-disclosure obligation that is not otherwise detrimental to the Company or any of its affiliates, as determined by the Board (excluding the Executive);
(vi) The Executive’s conviction of a felony (including pleading guilty or nolo contendere to a felony) or commitment of other acts causing a material detriment to the reputation, the business or a business relationship of the Company or any of its affiliates; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, no conviction or plea of nolo contendere of a felony or crime that occurs solely as a result of a violation of U.S. federal law concerning cannabis or the cannabis industry shall be deemed to constitute “Cause”, so long as (A) the acts, omissions, conduct or activity related to cannabis or the cannabis industry giving rise to any such conviction or plea of nolo contendere of a felony or crime could be reasonably believed to be in compliance with applicable state and local laws and (B) such conviction or plea of nolo contendere is not likely to interfere with the ability of the Company or any of its affiliates to maintain a license to harvest, cultivate, process, or sell cannabis or otherwise continue to operate its business;

(viii) The Executive’s material breach of the terms of this Agreement. For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act on the part of the Executive shall be considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive's action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based on authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or on the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. Termination of the Executive’s employment shall not be deemed to be for Cause unless and until (I) the Company has given notice thereof to the Executive specifying in reasonable detail the conduct constituting “Cause,” (II) solely with respect to the conduct described in clauses (i), (iii), (iv), (v) and (viii) above, the Executive fails to cure and correct his conduct (if capable of cure and correction) within thirty (30) days after such notice, and (III) the Company delivers to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the Board (excluding the Executive) (after the Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding in good faith that the Executive has engaged in the conduct described in any of (i)-(viii) above.
