NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the employment of Employee by the Corporation, and further in consideration of the salary, wages or other compensation and benefits to be provided by the Corporation to Employee, and for additional mutual covenants and conditions, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Corporation and Employee, intending legally to be bound, hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the above recitals and the mutual promises set forth in this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Nature and Capacity of Employment.

1.1 Title and Duties. Effective as of June 11, 2024 (the “Start Date”), the Corporation will employ Employee, with Employee to begin serving the Corporation as its Co-Chief Executive Officer effective July 1, 2024, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Employee will perform such duties and responsibilities for the Corporation as the Corporation’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) may assign to Employee from time to time consistent with Employee’s position. Employee shall serve the Corporation faithfully and to the best of Employee’s ability and shall at all times act in accordance with the law. Employee shall devote Employee’s full working time, attention and efforts to performing Employee’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement and advancing the Corporation’s business interests. Employee shall follow applicable policies and procedures adopted by the Corporation from time to time, including those relating to business ethics, conflict of interest and non-discrimination. Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board accept other employment or engage in other business activities during Employee’s employment with the Corporation that may prevent Employee from fulfilling the duties or responsibilities as set forth in or contemplated by this Agreement.

1.2 Location. Employee’s employment will be based at the Corporation’s corporate headquarters. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee’s position, duties and responsibilities will require regular travel, both in the U.S. and internationally.

2. Term. Unless terminated at an earlier date in accordance with Section 6, the term of Employee’s employment with the Corporation under the terms and conditions of this Agreement will be for the period commencing on the Start Date and ending on the two (2) year anniversary of the Start Date (the “Initial Term”). On the two (2) year anniversary of the Start Date, and on each succeeding one-year anniversary of the Start Date (each an “Anniversary Date”), the Term shall be automatically extended until the next Anniversary Date (each a “Renewal Term”), subject to termination on an earlier date in accordance with Section 6 or unless either Party gives written notice of non-renewal to the other Party at least ninety (90) days prior to the Anniversary Date on which this Agreement would otherwise be automatically extended that the Party providing such notice elects not to extend the Term. The Initial Term together with any Renewal Terms is the “Term.” If Employee remains employed by the Corporation after the Term ends for any reason, then such continued employment shall be according to the terms and conditions established by the Corporation from time to time (provided that any provisions of this Agreement and the Restrictive Covenants Agreement (as defined in Section 3) that by their terms survive the termination of the Term shall remain in full force and effect).

3. Restrictive Covenants Agreement. Simultaneous with Employee’s execution of this Agreement, Employee is entering into a Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Restrictive Covenants Agreement”), and Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Corporation’s execution of this Agreement and agreement to employ Employee are conditioned upon Employee executing the Restrictive Covenants Agreement and agreeing to Employee’s commitments and obligations under the Restrictive Covenants Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to modify, amend, cancel or supersede the Restrictive Covenants Agreement in any manner.

4. Compensation, Benefits and Business Expenses.

4.1 Base Salary. As of the Effective Date, the Corporation agrees to pay Employee an annualized base salary of $100,000.00 or such increased amount as the Board may from time to time determine (hereinafter referred to as the “Base Salary”); provided however, that the Base Salary may be reduced by no more than fifteen percent (15%) in connection with an across-the-board salary reduction by the Corporation similarly effecting all senior executives of the Corporation. The Base Salary will be earned by Employee on a pro rata basis as Employee performs services and which shall be paid according to the Corporation’s normal payroll practices. Such Base Salary will be reviewed at least annually by the Board pursuant to the Corporation’s normal performance review policies for senior executives.

4.2 Employee Benefits. While Employee is employed by the Corporation during the

Term, Employee shall be entitled to participate in the retirement plans, equity compensation plans, health plans, and all other employee benefits made available by the Corporation, and as they may be changed from time to time. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee will be subject to all eligibility requirements and all other provisions of these benefits plans, and that the Corporation is under no obligation to Employee to establish and maintain any employee benefit plan in which Employee may participate. The terms and provisions of any employee benefit plan of the Corporation are matters within the exclusive province of the Board, subject to applicable law.

4.3 Discretionary Time Off. While Employee is employed by the Corporation during the Term, Employee shall be eligible to use discretionary time off for illness or other personal business, or as vacation time off at such times so as not to materially disrupt the operations of the Corporation, or as required under applicable law.

4.4 Business Expenses. While Employee is employed by the Corporation during the Term, the Corporation shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket business, travel and entertainment expenses incurred by Employee in the performance of Employee’s duties and responsibilities hereunder, subject to the Corporation’s normal policies and procedures for expense verification and documentation.

5. Recoupment. In the event of a restatement of the Corporation’s financial results (other than a prophylactic or voluntary restatement due to a change in applicable accounting rules or interpretations) due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements, with respect to any compensation granted (whether already paid or only calculated as payable and yet to be paid) to Employee if the Board determines in good faith that such compensation was awarded (or in the case of unpaid compensation, determined for award) based on such material noncompliance then the Board or a committee thereof comprised of independent (as defined under the rules of any national securities exchange on which security of the Corporation is listed) Board members shall be entitled on behalf of the Corporation to recover all of Employee’s compensation (or in the case of unpaid compensation, to reduce such compensation) based on the erroneous financial data in excess of what would have been paid (or in the case of unpaid compensation, what should be paid) to Employee under the accounting restatement. Such recovery period shall comprise up to the three (3) completed fiscal years preceding the date on which the Corporation is required to prepare the accounting restatement.

In determining whether to seek recovery of compensation, the Board or applicable committee thereof may take into account any considerations it deems appropriate, including whether the assertion of a claim may violate applicable law or adversely impact the interests of the Corporation in any related proceeding or investigation and the extent to which Employee was responsible for the error that resulted in the restatement. This Section 5 shall be deemed amended to the extent reasonably necessary to conform to any applicable law, stock exchange rule, or to any Corporation recoupment policy adopted by the Board for its senior executives.

6. Termination of Employment.

6.1 Termination of Employment Events. Employee’s employment with the Corporation is at-will. Employee’s employment with the Corporation will terminate as follows:

	(a)	Upon the effective date following written notice from the Corporation of the termination of Employee’s employment as specified herein;

	(b)	Upon Employee’s abandonment of Employee’s employment or the effective date of Employee’s resignation for any reason; or

	(c)	Immediately upon Employee’s death.

6.2 Termination Date; Payments Upon Termination. The date upon which Employee’s termination of employment with the Corporation is effective is the “Termination Date.” If Employee’s employment with the Corporation is terminated during the Term by the Corporation or by Employee for any reason, then the Corporation shall pay to Employee or Employee’s beneficiary or Employee’s estate, as the case may be, Employee’s Base Salary and other compensation earned through the Termination Date and Employee shall not be eligible or entitled to receive any severance pay or benefits from the Corporation.

7. Resolution of Disputes. Any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any other arrangement between Employee and the Corporation, Employee’s employment with the Corporation, or any termination thereof shall (except to the extent otherwise provided in the Restrictive Covenants Agreement with respect to certain requests for injunctive relief) be resolved (x) if mutually agreed by the Corporation and Employee, by confidential mediation with the assistance of an independent mediator selected by mutual agreement of the parties, or (y) if such mediation is not successful or if such mediation is not mutually agreed by the Corporation or Employee, by litigation to occur in the District Court of the Second Judicial District, County of Xxxxxx, State of the Minnesota or the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota. Each party shall bear their own costs, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of their own attorney, and the fees and expenses of the arbitrator shall be borne equally by each party.

8. Section 409A and Taxes Generally.

8.1 Taxes. The Corporation shall be entitled to withhold on and report the making of such payments as may be required by law as determined in the reasonable discretion of the Corporation. Except for any tax amounts withheld by the Corporation from any compensation that Employee may receive in connection with Employee’s employment with the Corporation and any employer taxes required to be paid by the Corporation under applicable laws or regulations, Employee is solely responsible for payment of any and all taxes owed in connection with any compensation, benefits, reimbursement amounts or other payments Employee receives from the Corporation under this Agreement or otherwise in connection with Employee’s employment with the Corporation. The Corporation does not guarantee any particular tax consequence or result with respect to any payment made by the Corporation.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the provisions set forth below shall apply notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement:

(a) all payments to be made to Employee hereunder, to the extent they constitute a deferral of compensation subject to the requirements of Section 409A (after taking into account all exclusions applicable to such payments under Section 409A), shall be made no later, and shall not be made any earlier, than at the time or times specified in this Agreement or in any applicable plan for such payments to be made, except as otherwise permitted or required under Section 409A;

(b) to the extent that the reimbursement of any expenses eligible for reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefits under any provision of this Agreement would be considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (after taking into account all exclusions applicable to such reimbursements and benefits under Section 409A): (i) reimbursement of any such expense shall be made by the Corporation as soon as practicable after such expense has been incurred, but in any event no later than December 31^st of the year following the year in which Employee incurs such expense; (ii) the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, during any calendar year shall not affect the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any calendar year; and (iii) Employee’s right to receive such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit;

(c) except for any tax amounts withheld by the Corporation from the payments or other consideration hereunder and any employment taxes required to be paid by the Corporation, Employee shall be responsible for payment of any and all taxes owed in connection with the consideration provided for in this Agreement; and

(d) the Parties agree that this Agreement may be amended, as may be necessary to fully comply with, or to be exempt from, Section 409A and all related rules and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either Party.

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the above recitals and the promises set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

1. Protection of Confidential Information.

1.1 Definition of Confidential Information. As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean any information which the Employee learns or develops during the Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx that derives independent economic value from being not generally known or readily ascertainable by other persons who could obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and includes, but is not limited to, trade secrets, financial information, personnel information, and information relating to such matters as existing or contemplated products, services, profit margins, fee schedules, pricing, design, processes, formulae, business plans, sales techniques, marketing techniques, training manuals and materials, policies or practices related to the Corporation’s business, personnel or other matters, computer databases, computer programs, software and other technology, customer lists and requirements, vendor lists, or supply information. Confidential Information includes such information of the Corporation, its customers, vendors, and other third parties or entities with whom the Corporation does business. Any information disclosed to the Employee or to which the Employee has access to during the time of the Employee’s employment that the Employee reasonably considers to be Confidential Information, or which the Corporation treats as Confidential Information, will be presumed Confidential Information.

1.2 Restrictions on Use or Disclosure of Confidential Information. The Employee shall keep the Confidential Information in absolute confidence both during the Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx and after the termination of the Employee’s employment, regardless of the reason for such termination. The Employee agrees that the Employee has not and will not, at any time, disclose to others, use for the benefit of any entity or person other than the Corporation, or otherwise take or copy any such Confidential Information, whether or not developed by the Employee, except as required in the Employee’s duties to Xxxxxxx.

1.3 Exceptions. The confidentiality and restriction on the use of Confidential Information under this Agreement shall not apply to Confidential Information to the extent that such Confidential Information: is now, or hereafter becomes, through no breach of this Agreement by the Employee, generally known or available to the public; was known to the Employee without an obligation to hold it in confidence prior to the time such Confidential Information was disclosed to the Employee by the Corporation; is disclosed or used, as applicable, with the prior written consent of the Corporation and in accordance with any limitations or conditions on such disclosure or use that may be imposed in such written consent; or was or is independently developed by the Employee without any use of or reference to the Confidential Information. In addition, notwithstanding any other language in this Agreement to the contrary, the Employee understands that the Employee may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (a) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney if such disclosure is made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or for pursuing an anti-retaliation lawsuit; or (b) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal and the Employee does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to a court order.

1.4 Return of Confidential Information and the Corporation’s Property. When the Employee’s employment terminates with Xxxxxxx, regardless of the reason for such termination, the Employee will promptly turn over to the Corporation in good condition all Corporation property in the Employee’s possession or control, including but not limited to all originals, copies of, or electronically stored documents or other materials containing Confidential Information, regardless of who prepared them. In the case of electronically stored information retained by the Employee outside of the Corporation’s electronic systems, the Employee will promptly make a hard copy of such information in paper, audio recording, disc format, or other format as appropriate, turn that hard copy over to the Corporation, and then destroy the Employee’s electronically stored information.

2. Non-Solicitation.

2.1 Acknowledgement by the Employee. The Employee acknowledges that (a) the Employee’s services performed for Xxxxxxx are of a special and unique nature; (b) the Corporation operates in a highly competitive environment and would be substantially harmed if the Employee were to divulge its confidential information or engage in activities prohibited by this Section 2; (c) the Employee has received valuable and sufficient consideration for entering into this Agreement, including but not limited to employment with Xxxxxxx, and the receipt of Confidential Information; and (d) the provisions of this Section 2, including all of its subparts, are reasonable and necessary to protect the Corporation’s business.

2.2 No Solicitation of Customers. During the Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx and for a period of twelve (12) months after the Employee’s termination of employment with Xxxxxxx, regardless of the reason for such termination, the Employee agrees that the Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit business from, work for, or otherwise interfere with or attempt to interfere with the Corporation’s relationship with (a) any customer of the Corporation or (b) any then-active material customer prospect of the Corporation known to Employee.

2.3 No Solicitation of Employees or Business Contacts. During the Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx and for a period of twelve (12) months after the Employee’s termination of employment with Xxxxxxx, regardless of the reason for such termination, the Employee agrees that the Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action to encourage, solicit or recruit any then current employee, consultant, independent contractor, subcontractor, supplier, vendor, or other business relation of the Corporation to terminate their relationship with the Corporation.

2.4 Disclosure of Obligations. The Employee agrees that, during the Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx and for a period of twelve (12) months after the Employee’s termination of employment with Xxxxxxx, regardless of the reason for such termination, the Employee shall, prior to accepting employment or any other business relationship with any other person or entity, inform that person or entity of the Employee’s obligations under this Section 2, including all of its subparts.

3. Compliance and Remedies. The Employee recognizes that if the Employee violates this Agreement, including but not limited to Sections 1 and 2 of this Agreement, irreparable damage will result to Xxxxxxx that could not adequately be remedied by monetary damages. As a result, the Employee hereby agrees that notwithstanding any other dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement, in the event of any breach by the Employee of this Agreement, including but not limited to Sections 1 and 2 of this Agreement, Xxxxxxx shall be entitled, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies available to it, to an injunction to restrain the Employee’s violation of any portion of this Agreement.

4. Miscellaneous.

4.1 Integration. This Agreement and the Employment Agreement embody the entire agreement and understanding among the parties relative to subject matter hereof and combined supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter, including but not limited to any earlier agreements between Employee and Xxxxxxx.

4.2 Survival of Sections 1 and 2. Employee’s obligations set forth in Sections 1 and 2 of this Agreement, including all of these sections’ subparts, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Employee’s termination of employment with Xxxxxxx, regardless of the reason for such terminations.

4.3 Applicable Law. All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, application, validity and enforcement of this Agreement are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule, whether of the State of Minnesota or any other jurisdiction, that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Minnesota.

4.4 Choice of Jurisdiction. Employee and Xxxxxxx consent to jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Minnesota and/or the federal district courts, District of Minnesota, for the purpose of resolving all issues of law, equity, or fact, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx or the termination of such employment. Any action involving claims for interpretation, breach or enforcement of this Agreement or related to Employee’s employment with Xxxxxxx or the termination of such employment shall be brought in such courts. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction over such party in the state and/or federal courts of Minnesota and hereby waives any defense of lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.

4.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts and as so executed shall constitute one agreement binding on the parties hereto.

4.6 Modification by the Parties. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except by a written instrument signed by the parties. In addition, no waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be binding unless set forth in a writing signed by the party effecting the waiver. Any waiver shall be limited to the circumstance or event specifically referenced in the written waiver document and shall not be deemed a waiver of any other term of this Agreement or of the same circumstance or event upon any recurrence thereof.

4.7 Severability; Blue Pencil. The invalidity or partial invalidity of any portion of this Agreement shall not invalidate the remainder thereof, and said remainder shall remain in full force and effect. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be excessively broad as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise, so as to be unenforceable at law, such provision or provisions shall be construed by the appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with then applicable law.

4.8 Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
