EMINENT, Inc.

This Executive Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the Effective Date (as defined below) by and between Eminent, Inc. (the “Company”), and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (“Executive”).

1.Duties and Scope of Employment.

(a)Positions and Duties. As of the Effective Date, Executive will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer and Head of Strategy and report to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”). Executive will render business and professional services in the performance of Executive’s duties, consistent with Executive’s position within the Company, as will reasonably be assigned to Executive by the CEO.

(b)Obligations. During the Employment Term, Executive will perform Executive’s duties faithfully and to the best of Executive’s ability and will devote Executive’s full business efforts and time to the Company. For the duration of the Employment Term, Executive agrees not to (i) actively engage in any other employment, occupation, or consulting activity for any direct or indirect remuneration or (ii) serve on other boards of directors, in all cases, without the prior approval of the Board. Executive further agrees to comply with all Company policies, including, for the avoidance of any doubt, any xxxxxxx xxxxxxx policies and compensation clawback policies currently in existence or that may be adopted by the Company during the Employment Term.

(c) Employment Term; At-Will Employment. As of the Effective Date, Executive and Company mutually agree Executive will continue to be employed by the Company through the end of the IPO Period, and will remain employed on an at-will basis thereafter (the period during which Executive is employed with the Company, the “Employment Term”). The parties agree that Executive’s employment with the Company during the Employment Term remains “at-will” employment and may be terminated at any time with or without cause or notice; provided, however, that in the event the Company desires to terminate Executive’s employment with the Company during the IPO Period for reasons other than Cause, the Company must first either provide notice to the Executive for the remaining duration of the IPO Period (such termination not to take effect until the end of the IPO Period) or provide the payments and benefits under Section 7(b). Executive understands and agrees that neither Executive’s job performance nor promotions, commendations, bonuses or the like from the Company give rise to or in any way serve as the basis for modification, amendment, or extension, by implication or otherwise, of Executive’s employment with the Company. However, as described in this Agreement, Executive may be entitled to severance payments and benefits depending on the circumstances of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company.

2.Compensation.

(a)Base Salary. The Company will pay Executive an annual salary of $424,000 as compensation for Executive’s services. The annual base salary will be paid periodically in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices and be subject to the usual, required withholdings. Executive’s annual base salary will be subject to periodic review by the Company’s board of directors or its compensation committee (either, the “Committee”) and adjustments may be made by the Committee.

(b)Target Bonus. Executive will be eligible to receive an annual target bonus of 40% of Executive’s annual base salary (the “Target Bonus”) upon achievement of performance objectives to be determined by the Committee. Executive’s Target Bonus will be subject to periodic review by the Committee and adjustments may be made by the Committee. The amount of any Target Bonus to be paid to Executive, if any, and the timing of such payment will be: (i) determined in the sole discretion of the Committee pursuant to the terms of the Company’s bonus plan governing such opportunity and (ii) subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company through the payment date, provided that if Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause during a performance period and before such payment date, the Company will pay Executive the prorated portion of the actual bonus that Executive would have received based on the achievement of the relevant performance metrics had Executive been employed with the Company through the payment date, with the proration based on the number of days in which Executive is employed during that performance period.

(c)Equity.

(i)Executive will be eligible to receive Equity Awards pursuant to any plans or arrangements the Company or its affiliates may have in effect from time to time. The Committee will determine in its discretion whether Executive will be granted any Equity Awards and the terms of any Equity Awards in accordance with the terms of any applicable plan or arrangement that may be in effect from time to time.

(ii)Any outstanding Equity Awards held by Executive as of the Effective Date shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the Advance Holdings, LLC 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) and form of option agreement thereunder, except as otherwise amended by Sections 7 and 8 of this Agreement. For clarity, as set forth in Section 7(b) of the 2013 Plan, in the event of a dividend, split or combination of the interests subject to Equity Awards granted under the 2013 Plan (including a reverse split), recapitalization or other change in the capital structure that constitutes an equity restructuring within the meaning of ASC Topic 718 (each such an event being an “Equity Change”), the 2013 Plan administrator shall make appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of equity interests or securities subject to such Equity Awards granted thereunder that are then outstanding or subsequently granted, any exercise prices relating to such Equity Awards and any other provision of such Equity Awards affected by such change. Such adjustments made by the 2013 Plan Administrator shall be equitable and result in the value of each such Equity Award immediately following the occurrence of the Equity Change being approximately equivalent value of such Equity Award as of immediately before the occurrence of the Equity Change.

3.Employee Benefits. Executive will be entitled to participate in employee benefit plans and programs of the Company, if any, on the same terms and conditions as other similarly-situated employees to the extent that Executive’s position, tenure, salary, age, health and other qualifications make Executive eligible to participate in the plans or programs, subject to the rules and regulations applicable thereto. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the benefit plans and programs it offers to its employees at any time.

4.PTO. Executive will be entitled to paid time off (PTO) in accordance with the Company’s PTO policy, with the timing and duration of specific days off mutually and reasonably agreed to by the parties.

5.Expenses.

Any other then-unvested portion of Executive’s then-outstanding Equity Awards will remain outstanding for 3 months or until the occurrence of a Change in Control (whichever is earlier) so that any benefits due on a CIC Qualified Termination as set forth in Section 7(c)(iii) below can be provided if a Change in Control occurs within 3 months following the applicable Early Non-CIC Qualified Termination (provided that in no event will Executive’s stock options or similar Equity Awards remain outstanding beyond the Equity Award’s maximum term to expiration).

In the case of an Equity Award with performance-based vesting, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Equity Award agreement governing such award, all performance goals and other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at the greater of actual performance measured as of the date of termination or 100% of target levels. Any restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards that vest under this paragraph will be settled on the date on which the Release becomes irrevocable (subject to any delay as required under Section 9 below).

(d)Termination other than a Qualified Termination. If the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company Group is not a Qualified Termination, then Executive will not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits.

(e)Non-Duplication of Payment or Benefits. If (i) Executive’s Qualified Termination occurs prior to a Change in Control that qualifies Executive for severance payments and benefits under Sections 7(a) or 7(b), as applicable, and (ii) a Change in Control occurs within the 3‑month period following Executive’s Qualified Termination that qualifies Executive for severance payments and benefits under Section 7(c), then (A) Executive will cease receiving any further payments or benefits under Sections 7(a) or 7(b), as applicable, and (B) Executive will receive the payments and benefits under Section 7(c) instead but each of the payments and benefits otherwise payable under Section 7(c) will be offset by the corresponding payments or benefits Executive already received under Sections 7(a) or 7(b), as applicable.

8.Accrued Compensation. On any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company Group, Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements or as otherwise required by applicable law.

9.Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

(a)Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon Executive’s Qualified Termination under Section 7 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking the Company’s then-standard separation agreement and release of claims in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto, subject to any changes that the Company believes are necessary or appropriate (the “Release” and that requirement, the “Release Requirement”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the 60th day following Executive’s Qualified Termination (the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 7. In no event will severance payments or benefits under Section 7 be paid or provided until the Release actually becomes effective and irrevocable. To the extent that payments are delayed under Section 9(c), the Company will pay or provide Executive the severance payments and benefits that Executive would otherwise have received under Section 7 on or prior to that date, with the balance of the severance payments and benefits being paid or provided as originally scheduled.

(b)Return of Company Property. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon Executive’s Qualified Termination under Section 7 is subject to Executive returning all documents and other property provided to Executive by any member of the Company Group (with the exception of a copy of the Employee Handbook and personnel documents specifically relating to Executive), developed or obtained by Executive in connection with his employment with the Company Group, or otherwise belonging to the Company Group.

(c)Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any guidance promulgated under Section 409A of the Code (collectively, “Section 409A”) so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No payment or benefits to be paid to Executive, if any, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”), will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Any severance benefits that would be considered Deferred Payments will be paid on, or, in the case of installments, will not commence until, the 60th day following Executive’s separation from service, or, if later, such time as required under this paragraph. Except as required under this paragraph, any installment payments that would have been made to you during the 60-day period immediately following Executive’s separation from service but for the preceding sentence will be paid to you on the 60th day following Executive’s separation from service and the remaining payments will be made as provided above. If, at the time of Executive’s termination of employment, Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, then the payment of the Deferred Payments will be delayed to the extent necessary to

-6-

avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, which generally means that Executive will receive payment on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date that is 6 months and 1 day following Executive’s termination of employment. The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive or any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will any member of the Company Group reimburse Executive for any taxes that may be imposed on Executive as a result of Section 409A.

(d)Resignation of Officer and Director Positions. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon Executive’s Qualified Termination under Section 7 is subject to Executive resigning from all officer and director positions with all members of the Company Group and Executive executing any documents the Company may require in connection with the same.

10.Limitation on Payments.

(a)Reduction of Severance Benefits. If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive from any Company Group member or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The “Best Results Amount” will be either (A) the full amount of the Payment or (B) a lesser amount that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of those amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: reduction of cash payments; cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock awards; reduction of employee benefits. In the event that acceleration of vesting of stock award compensation is to be reduced, the acceleration of vesting will be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant of Executive’s equity awards unless Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation. Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and Executive will not be reimbursed by any member of the Company Group for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

(b)Determination of Excise Tax Liability. The Company will select a professional services firm to make all of the determinations required to be made under these paragraphs relating to parachute payments. The Company will request that firm provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Executive prior to the date on which the event that triggers the Payment occurs if administratively feasible, or subsequent to that date if events occur that result in parachute payments to Executive at that time. For purposes of making the calculations required under these paragraphs relating to parachute payments, the firm may make reasonable

-7-

assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith determinations concerning the application of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the firm any information and documents as the firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under these paragraphs relating to parachute payments. The Company will bear all costs the firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by these paragraphs relating to parachute payments. Any determination by the firm will be binding upon the Company and Executive, and the Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the firm.

11.Definitions. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

(a)Base Salary. “Base Salary” means Executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Qualified Termination (or if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in base salary, as applicable, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the reduction) or, if Executive’s Qualified Termination is a CIC Qualified Termination and the amount is greater, at the level in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

(iii)A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets which occurs on the date that any Person acquires (or has acquired during the twelve (12)‑month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than fifty percent (50%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (iii), the following will not constitute a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets: (A) a transfer to an entity that is controlled by the Company’s stockholders immediately after the transfer, or (B) a transfer of assets by the Company to: (1) a stockholder of the Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to the Company’s stock, (2) an entity, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, (3) a Person, that owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock of the Company, or (4) an entity, at least fifty percent (50%) of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a Person described in this subsection (iii)(B)(3). For purposes of this subsection (iii), gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

In consideration of your acceptance of this Agreement, and subject to your meeting in full your obligations hereunder, the Company agrees it will pay you the severance payments and benefits set forth in Section [7] / [8] of the Employment Agreement to which this release is attached subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.

No other Payments or Benefits. All wages, compensation, vacation, benefits or like or similar payments of any kind have already been fully paid to you. Except as may be set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, you acknowledge that you are not entitled to any other compensation, severance pay or benefits of any kind.

COMPLETE RELEASE.

Release. You irrevocably and unconditionally release all the claims described in hereunder that you may now have or which may arise before you sign this Agreement against the following persons or entities (the “Releasees”): the Company and all of its past and present owners, general partner(s), limited partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, assigns, attorneys, insurers, subsidiaries, Affiliates, predecessors, benefit plans, the benefit plans’ sponsors, fiduciaries, administrators, affiliates and agents, and any other persons acting by, through, under or in concert with any of the persons or entities listed in this subsection. You further agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any and all taxes, penalties, attorneys’ fees or other charges with respect to the consideration in Section 1 above. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliates” means all persons and entities directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company, where control may be by management authority, equity interest, or otherwise.

Claims Released. The claims released by you with respect to the Releasees include all claims, promises, debts, causes of action or similar rights of any type or nature contingent or non-contingent, matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not known, suspected or claimed you have or had or may have which in any way relate to the payment under this Agreement, your employment with the Company or the cessation of that employment. The claims you are releasing include, but are not limited to, claims arising under any:

Anti-Discrimination Statutes, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §1981; Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Fair Labor Standards Act (including the Equal Pay Act) which prohibit race, color, religion, sex and national origin discrimination in employment; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (29 U.S.C. §621 through 634) and all amendments thereto, which prohibits age discrimination in employment; the

California Fair Employment and Housing Act, which prohibits all forms of harassment, discrimination and retaliation; the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities; the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993; the California Family Rights Act; any other federal, state or municipal statute or ordinance relating to discrimination in employment or unfair employment practices; or any compensation-related claim including but not limited to misclassification, unpaid wages or penalties, overtime, meal and rest period pay, severance pay, bonus, sick leave, holiday pay, vacation pay, life insurance, health or medical insurance, employee benefit plan, or any other fringe benefit; and

Other laws, such as the California Constitution and the California Labor Code which regulates wages, hours and working conditions, workers’ compensation laws and all other laws which regulate employment in California or elsewhere; or any other federal, state or local laws whether based on statute, regulation or common law, providing recourse for alleged wrongful discharge, breach of contract (actual or implied), breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, physical or personal injury, privacy, emotional distress, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, libel, slander, defamation, assault, battery, other torts, and similar or related claims.

Notwithstanding, this release shall not apply to any obligations that you have under this Agreement.

You expressly waive all rights afforded by laws regarding a waiver of unknown claims including under California Civil Code §1542, and you do so understanding and acknowledging the significance of such a waiver. Section 1542 states as follows:

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

You hereby acknowledge that you may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those that you now know or believed to be true when you expressly agreed to assume the risk of the possible discovery of additional facts, and you agree that this Agreement will be and remain effective regardless of such additional or different facts. You expressly agree that this Agreement shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown or unsuspected claims, demands, causes of action, governmental, regulatory or enforcement actions, charges, obligations, damages, liabilities, and attorneys’ fees and costs, if any, as well as those relating to any other claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages, liabilities, charges and attorneys’ fees and costs specified herein.
