1. Duties and Scope of Employment.

(a) Title and Duties. As of the Effective Date (as defined in Section 3 below), Executive will be employed and serve as President of the Company. During the Employment Term, and without any additional compensation in connection with such service, Executive shall also serve as an officer of such affiliates of the Company as the Board may determine from time to time. During the Employment Term (as defined in Section 3 below), Executive will have authority and render such business and professional services in the performance of Executive’s duties as are customarily associated with Executive’s position(s) provided above, and Executive agrees to perform such other duties and functions as may from time to time be reasonably determined by the Board. The “Board” means (i) the board of directors of FlexEnergy Green Solutions, Inc. (“FGS”) if the Company is a direct or indirect subsidiary of FGS; or (ii) the board of directors or analogous governing body of the Company if the Company is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of FGS.

(b) Obligations. During the Employment Term, and excluding any periods of vacation, sick leave, or other leave to which the Executive is entitled, Executive will perform Executive’s duties faithfully and to the best of Executive’s ability and will devote such time as reasonably necessary to fulfill Executive’s responsibilities in the position. Executive and the Company agree that the Company represents Executive’s principal business focus. Except as may otherwise be approved by the Company from time to time, Executive’s services shall be primarily performed at the Company’s office at Greenwood Village, Colorado, or other locations less than 50 miles from such location determined by the Company. Executive agrees to travel as reasonably necessary to fulfill Executive’s responsibilities in the position. During the Employment Term, Executive agrees that Executive shall maintain loyalty to the Company, shall take no action that would be injurious to the Company interests, and shall comply with all rules, regulations and policies of the Company. During the Employment Term, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for Executive to (i) serve on up to two (2) civic or charitable boards or committees (and other board and committees from time to time as approved by the Board), (ii) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions, or (iii) manage personal investments and business endeavors, so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities as an employee of the Company in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) Executive’s Employability. Executive represents and warrants that: (i) Executive has the right to execute, deliver and perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement, and (ii) Executive is not a party to any other agreements, arrangements or obligations (e.g., confidentiality agreements, noncompetition agreements), whether written, oral or implied, which include terms that would limit Executive’s ability to execute, deliver and perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement or which are otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement. This warranty will remain in full force and effect throughout the Employment Term (as defined in Section 3 below).

2. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Term, the Company will pay Executive as compensation for Executive’s services a base salary at rate of $24,625.00 per month (the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary will be paid in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, subject to applicable deductions and withholdings. The first and last payment will be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect a commencement or termination date other than the first or last working day of a pay period.

(b) Annual Bonus. Executive shall be eligible for an annual bonus (collectively the “Annual Bonus”) during the Employment Term in a target amount equal to 50% of Base Salary, to be earned based on such targets, criteria, terms and conditions as be determined by the Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) in its sole discretion, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Any such Annual Bonus (i) will only be determined and awarded after the completion of the audited financial statements for FGS with respect to the applicable annual period for which the Annual Bonus is to be earned; (ii) will only be awarded and paid if both (A) Executive remains employed with the Company during the full annual period for which the Annual Bonus is to be earned and (B) (I) Executive remains employed with the Company through the award and payment of the Annual Bonus or (II) subject to Section 4(b), Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause between the last day of the annual period for which the Annual Bonus is to be earned and the date on which the Annual Bonus would otherwise be paid; and (iii) will be paid as soon as practicable, but not later than 45 days, after the completion and public release of audited financial statements for FGS with respect to the applicable annual period for which the Annual Bonus is earned.

(i) Incentive Award Plan Eligibility. Executive shall be eligible to participate in, and receive one or more grants under, the FlexEnergy Green Solutions, Inc. 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). Any such awards and the terms and conditions thereof shall be subject to the discretion of the board of directors of FGS and set forth in award documentation as such board of directors deems reasonably necessary in connection with any such award.

(ii) Issuance of Shares One Year After IPO. The Company agrees to cause the issuance to Executive under the Incentive Plan (pursuant to then-current forms of award agreement under the Incentive Plan), after the one (1) year anniversary of the IPO (as defined in Section 3 below), of an amount of shares of common stock of FGS equal to 1.2% of the total number of shares initially available under the Plan if (A) Executive remains employed by the Company throughout the one (1)-year period immediately following the IPO, (B) Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause (defined below) during one (1)-year period immediately following the IPO, or (C) Executive terminates this Agreement for Good Reason. For the avoidance of doubt, no shares will be issued to Executive if Executive fails to remain employed by the Company during the one (1)-year period immediately following the IPO under any other circumstances (ex. resignation by Executive without Good Reason, termination by the Company for Cause).

(iii) Initial Stock Option Award. Without limiting Sections 2(c)(i) or 2(c)(ii) above, the Company will recommend to the FGS board of directors that Executive receive a stock option award to purchase, (A) at an exercise price determined by the FGS board of directors in accordance with the requirements of the Incentive Plan, (B) (I) shares of common stock of FGS in an amount equal to 2% of the total number of shares initially available under the Plan, to be initially vested and exercisable upon grant, and (II) shares of common stock of FGS in an amount equal to 8% of the total number of shares initially available under the Plan, to vest and become exercisable over a four (4)-year period with 25% vesting on each anniversary of the IPO (defined below) subject to Executive’s continuous service through the applicable anniversary, (C) not subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 12 of the Incentive Plan, without Executive’s written consent, that would reduce the number of shares subject to the stock option or increase the exercise price applicable to the stock option (except to provide equitable adjustment with respect to a reverse stock split or other event specified in Section 12(i) of the Incentive Plan having a substantively similar effect on the outstanding capital of FGS), and (D) otherwise subject to the general terms and conditions of the Incentive Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that no stock option award to Executive has been approved by the FGS board of directors, and Executive has no right to receive (and neither the Company nor FGS has any obligation to issue) any stock option award unless and until the FGS board of directors has actually approved any such stock option award and the full terms thereof (including the applicable exercise price).

(d) Expense Reimbursement. During the Employment Term, the Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket business expenses incurred by Executive in furtherance of Company’s business in accordance with Company’s policies with respect thereto as in effect from time to time (the “Expense Reimbursement”). All reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement); (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year; (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred; and (iv) the right to reimbursement or in kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

During the Employment Term, Executive will be considered a full-time employee and be entitled to participate in the employee benefit plans and programs currently and hereafter maintained by the Company of general applicability to other Employees of Executive’s classification at the Company (the “Benefits”). The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the Benefit plans and programs it offers to its employees at any time. In the event of any dispute between this Agreement and the terms of any Benefit summary plan description, the terms of the summary plan description shall control.

3. Effective Date; Term of Employment.

(a) Employment Term; Effective Date. The “Employment Term” under this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue until the Executive’s employment terminated by either the Company or Executive as provided in Section 3(b) of this Agreement. This Agreement shall only become a legally effective agreement binding on Executive and the Company on the closing date (the “Effective Date”) of an initial public offering of the common stock of FGS pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (an “IPO”). If an IPO does not close on or before January 31, 2022, then this Agreement shall thereafter be void and no legal force or effect.

For the avoidance of doubt, such termination shall not constitute a termination for Good Reason if Company cures the conditions identified in Executive’s notice as provided in Section 3(d)(iii).

(iii) Termination by the Company.

(1) For Cause. If terminated by the Company for Cause (defined below), upon written notice by the Company to Executive that Executive’s employment is being terminated for Cause, which termination shall be effective on the date of such notice or such later date as specified in writing by the Company;

(2) Without Cause or Disability. If terminated by the Company for reasons other than for Cause or Disability, upon written notice by Company to Executive that Executive’s employment is being terminated, which termination shall be effective immediately after the date of such notice or such later date as specified in writing by the Company; or

(3) For Disability. If terminated by the Company because of Executive’s Disability (defined below), upon written notice by the Company to Executive that Executive’s employment is being terminated as a result of Executive’s Disability, which termination shall be effective 30 days after the date of such notice or such later date as specified in writing by the Company, unless within such period Executive becomes capable of rendering services of the character contemplated hereby (and a physician chosen by the Company so certifies in writing) and Executive in fact resumes such services.

(c) Deemed Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if (i) the Company at any time determines that Cause existed at the time of Executive’s termination or written notice thereof, (ii) Executive has breached or breaches the terms of Section 5, then upon written notice by the Company to Executive (i) the Executive’s termination shall be deemed be (or have been) terminated by the Company for Cause pursuant to Section 3(b)(iii)(1) (including for purposes of Section 4 and Section 6(g)(ii)(1)), (ii) the Company may immediately cease payments of any Basic Severance Payments and/or any Extended Severance Payments that may otherwise be due to Executive, and (iii) the Company may recover from Executive any Basic Severance Payments and/or any Extended Severance Payments that may have already been paid to Executive.

4. Payments upon Termination.

(a) Generally; Accrued Obligations. If Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason, then the Company shall pay Executive the Accrued Obligations promptly following the effective date of such termination. “Accrued Obligations” means (A) the portion of Executive’s Base Salary that has accrued prior to any termination of Executive’s employment with Company and has not yet been paid, any bonus that has been awarded to Executive as of the date of termination of Executive’s employment but has not yet been paid to Executive, (B) and the amount of any unreimbursed Expense Reimbursement.

(b) Termination by the Company without Cause or Termination for Good Reason. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause or the Executive terminates Executive’s employment for Good Reason, then, in addition to the Accrued Obligations, and subject to (A) the Executive signing a separation and release agreement in the form attached as Exhibit A, and as such form may be updated by the Company from time to time at any time to conform with changes in applicable laws (a “General Release”) and (B) the General Release becoming effective and irrevocable, all within 60 days after the date of termination (or such shorter period as set forth in the General Release), the Company shall pay Executive:

If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause during a Change in Control Period, then, in addition to the Accrued Obligations, and subject to (i) the Executive signing a General Release and (ii) the General Release becoming effective and irrevocable, all within 60 days after the date of termination (or such shorter period as set forth in the General Release), the Company shall pay Executive the Extended Severance Payments.

(d) COBRA Premiums.

(i) Subject to Section 4(d)(ii), if (A) Executive is entitled to Basic Severance Payments or Extended Severance Payments (including, without limitation, Executive’s timely execution and delivery of a General Release that has become effective and irrevocable), and (B) Executive is eligible for and timely and properly elects continuation health care coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), then the Company will pay or promptly reimburse the COBRA premium amounts required for the continued coverage of Executive and Executive’s dependents (if any) under the Company’s group health care plans at the same levels that would have applied if Executive’s employment had not terminated (if possible) until the end of the Basic Severance Term or Extended Severance Term, as applicable (or until such earlier time as Executive ceases to be eligible for COBRA coverage, if earlier) (the “COBRA Premiums”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA Premium without a substantial risk of violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company instead shall pay Executive a monthly cash payment equal to the applicable COBRA Premium for that month.

-5-

(ii) If, however, health care insurance benefits are available to Executive from a new employer, the Company shall have no further obligation relating to payment of additional COBRA Premiums. Executive agrees to promptly inform the Company if and when health care insurance benefits are available from a new employer, and to reimburse the Company for any amounts paid with respect to COBRA Premiums to the extent paid after health care insurance benefits are available to Executive from a new employer.

(e) Certain Definitions.

(i) Basic Severance Payments; Basic Severance Term. For purposes of this Agreement, “Basic Severance Payments” means, to the extent applicable, the monthly cash severance at the Base Salary rate, less standard withholdings and deductions, to be paid during the Basic Severance Term. For purposes of this Agreement, “Basic Severance Term” means the six (6)-month period immediately following the termination date of Executive’s employment.

(ii) Extended Severance Payments; Extended Severance Term. For purposes of this Agreement, “Extended Severance Payments” means, to the extent applicable, the monthly cash severance at the Base Salary rate, less standard withholdings and deductions, to be paid during the applicable Extended Severance Term. For purposes of this Agreement, “Extended Severance Term” means the one (1)-year period immediately following the termination date of Executive’s employment.

(f) Execution of General Release. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be obligated to pay Executive any severance payments unless a General Release has been timely executed and delivered by Executive and such General Release has become effective and irrevocable.

(g) Limited Rights to Severance Payments. For clarity, (i) entitlement to severance payments of any kind pursuant to this Agreement shall only be possible if (A) the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause, or (B) Executive terminates this Agreement for Good Reason; and (ii) no severance payment obligations shall arise out of (W) a termination of this Agreement by the Company with Cause, (X) a termination of this Agreement by the Executive without Good Reason, or (Y) a termination of this Agreement due to Executive’s death or Disability.

(h) No Continued Vesting. For the avoidance of doubt, vesting of any grants under the Incentive Plan or any other stock, stock option or other incentive awards shall cease upon the date of any termination of Executive’s employment, and shall not continue to vest for the remainder of any Noncompetition Period, Non-Solicitation Period or during any applicable Basic Severance Term or Extended Severance Term.

(i) Execution of General Release. In accordance with Section 4(b), Section 4(c) and Section 4(d), to receive the payments set forth in those Sections, Executive’s or Executive’s estate’s, if applicable, General Release must be executed, effective and irrevocable before the expiration of 60 days after the date of termination. The payments specified in these Sections will begin as soon as practicable (not to exceed 30 days) after the General Release is executed, effective and irrevocable, but if the 60-day period could span two (2) tax years, the payments must be made in the later year. For example, if the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause on December 15, Executive has 60 days—until February 13 —for a General Release to be sign and become effective and irrevocable. In this case, payments due in accordance with Section 4(b), Section 4(c) or Section 4(d) may not begin until the following year, even if the release was signed, effective and irrevocable in December. If Executive’s or Executive’s estate’s, if applicable, General Release is not executed, effective and irrevocable before the end of the 60-day-period, then the Executive and Executive’s estate forfeit, on behalf of Executive and all who might claim through Executive, the payments that would otherwise be due under the applicable Section of this Agreement.

5. Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement. Executive has executed, and as applicable shall execute, the Company’s Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement, the current form of is attached as Exhibit B, and as updated from time to time (“CIIA”), the provisions of which are hereby incorporated by reference and shall govern the Executive’s obligations and responsibilities with regard to the Company Confidential Information (as that term is defined in the CIIA), the assignment of intellectual property, and other matters. Executive agrees to comply with the terms of the CIIA. To the extent that any provision of the CIIA conflicts with any provision in this Agreement, the provisions requiring Executive to comply with the higher standard shall govern.

(2) the period during Executive’s employment with the Company and for the six (6)-month period after the end of Executive’s employment with the Company if Executive’s employment is terminated in any circumstances not provided in Section 6(g)(ii)(1)(A), (B) or (C) above; provided, however, that the Board may, in its sole discretion, elect (by written notice to Executive within 10 days following the termination of Executive’s employment) that the Company will pay Extended Severance Payments to Executive (instead of any Basic Severance Payments), in which case the “Non-Competition Period” instead means the period during the Executive’s employment with the Company and for the one (1)-year period after the end of Executive’s employment with the Company.

(iii) “Non-Solicitation Period” means the period during Executive’s employment with the Company and for the one (1)-year period after the end of Executive’s employment with the Company.

(iv) “Company” includes the Company and any of the Company’s affiliates.

-8-

(v) “Covered Customers” means persons; firms; associations; partnerships; corporations; limited liability companies; institutions, local, state, federal and foreign entities or agencies; and other entities (A) to which the Company provided services or products before or during Executive’s employment with the Company, (B) in relation to which Executive has provided any of the Services, or (C) that the Company (or Executive in connection with the Services) has contacted or solicited with respect to the provision of services or products before or during Executive’s employment with the Company.

(vi) An “employee” or “independent contractor” of the Company is any person who is an employee or independent contractor, respectively, of any of the Company on the date hereof or who becomes an employee or independent contractor of the Company during Executive’s employment with the Company.

(h) Remedies. If Executive breaches any of the provisions contained in this Section 6, the Company shall have the remedies set forth below, each of which shall be enforceable, and each of which is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company at law or in equity. The provisions of this Section 6 are intended to be for the benefit of the Company and its affiliates, and any of the Company or its affiliate may enforce such provisions. Executive recognizes and acknowledges that a breach of the covenants contained in this Section 6 will cause irreparable harm to the goodwill and business of the Company, the exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, in the event of an alleged or threatened breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 6, the Company may, in addition to all other rights and remedies existing in its favor, seek specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof. Additionally, if Executive breaches Executive’s obligations under Section 5 or Section 6, then the Company may immediately cease payments of any Basic Severance Payments and/or any Extended Severance Payments and may recover any Basic Severance Payments and/or any Extended Severance Payments paid to Executive after such breach. The cessation and recovery of such payments shall be in addition to, and not as an alternative to, any other remedies at law or in equity available to the Company including, without limitation, the right to specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief.

(i) Severability. In the event any provision of this Section 6 shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, it will be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable, over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable, or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such action. If any provision of this Agreement, or any part thereof, is held to be invalid or unenforceable because of the scope or duration of or the area covered by such provision, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall reduce the scope, duration and/or area of such provision (and shall substitute appropriate provisions for any such invalid or unenforceable provisions) in order to make such provision enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law and/or shall delete specific words and phrases, and such modified provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced. In the event that any court determines that the time period or the area, or both, are unreasonable and that any of the covenants is to that extent invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that such covenants will remain in full force and effect, first, for the greatest time period, and second, in the greatest geographical area that would not render them unenforceable.

(j) Enforceability. The Parties each acknowledge that the other party acted in good faith in the negotiation and execution of the provisions in this Section 6. In particular, the Parties acknowledge that given the nature of Executive’s duties and responsibilities (and Executive’s associated influence over the Company’s business and its relationships with its customers), the restrictions and duration of the obligations set forth in this Section 6 are reasonable and no broader than necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and the goodwill thereof. Executive further acknowledges that the restrictions and duration of this Section 6 do not and will not impose an unreasonable hardship upon Executive. The Parties further agree that the requirements of this Section 6 shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.

-9-

(k) Waiver or Inapplicability of Non-Competition Obligations. Executive may submit to the Board a written description setting out a reasonable description (including without limitation the identity of any associated employer and other relevant parties) of any contemplated activity that would or may otherwise violate or contravene Executive’s obligations under Section 6(e) (the “Specified Activity”), and request that the Board waive or otherwise confirm the inapplicability of Executive’s obligations under Section 6(e) with respect to such Specified Activity. If and to the extent the Board confirms in writing to Executive the waiver or inapplicability of Executive’s obligations under Section 6(e) with respect to the Specified Activity (such waiver or confirmation, not to be unreasonably withheld based on the interests of the Company), then Executive shall thereafter have no liability or obligation under Section 6(e) with respect to the Specified Activity.

7. Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of (a) the heirs, executors and legal representatives of Executive upon Executive’s death and (b) any successor of the Company. Any such successor of the Company will be deemed substituted for the Company under the terms of this Agreement for all purposes. For this purpose, “successor” means any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company. None of the rights of Executive to receive any form of compensation or benefits pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned or transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. None of the obligations of Executive under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred. Any other attempted assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits will be null and void.

8. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications called for under this Agreement will be in writing and will be delivered personally by hand or by courier, mailed by United States first-class mail, postage prepaid, or sent by email or by other electronic means directed to the party to be notified at the address or email address indicated for such party on the signature page to this Agreement, or at such other address or email address as such party may designate by 10 days’ advance written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and other communications will be deemed given upon personal delivery, three (3) days after the date of mailing, or when sent if given via email or other electronic means.

9. Severability. In the event that any provision(s) of this Agreement becomes or is declared by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect without such provision(s).

10. Arbitration. READ THE FOLLOWING ARBITRATION PROVISION CAREFULLY. IT LIMITS CERTAIN OF YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO OBTAIN REDRESS THROUGH COURT ACTION

(a) Executive and the Company agree that other than any claims (by Company or Executive) for injunctive relief, any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, or the interpretation, validity, construction, performance, breach, or termination thereof, will be settled by binding arbitration to be held in Colorado in accordance with the National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes then in effect of the American Arbitration Association (the “Rules”). The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction.

(b) The arbitrator(s) will apply Colorado law to the merits of any dispute or claim, without reference to rules of conflicts of law. The arbitration proceedings will be governed by federal arbitration law and by the Rules, without reference to state arbitration law.

(c) EXECUTIVE HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THIS SECTION, WHICH DISCUSSES ARBITRATION. EXECUTIVE UNDERSTANDS THAT BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EXECUTIVE AGREES TO SUBMIT ANY CLAIMS (OTHER THAN THOSE FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF) WHICH ARISE OUT OF, RELATE TO, OR ARE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, PERFORMANCE, BREACH OR TERMINATION THEREOF TO BINDING ARBITRATION, AND THAT THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF EXECUTIVE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF THE EMPLOYER/EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLAIMS OF DISCRIMINATION, HARASSMENT, OR RETALIATION, OTHER THAN CLAIMS FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF.

Recipient shall not (A) use the Company Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever other than for the benefit of the Company in the course of the Relationship, or (B) disclose the Company Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written authorization of the Company. Recipient understands that Recipient’s unauthorized use or disclosure of Company Confidential Information may lead to immediate termination of the Relationship and additional legal action by the Company. Recipient shall immediately notify the Company, in writing, of any known or perceived disclosure or misappropriation of the Company's Proprietary Information of which Recipient is aware, whether such disclosure or misappropriation is a result of a negligent or an intentional act of Recipient or a third party.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, during and following the Relationship, Recipient shall hold in strictest confidence the Company’s Trade Secrets that come into Recipient’s knowledge during the Relationship, and shall not directly or indirectly disclose, publish, or make use of at any time such Trade Secrets for so long as the information remains a Trade Secret or the obligations of this Agreement are effective, whichever is longer. If Recipient has any questions regarding what data or information constitutes a Trade Secret, Recipient agrees to contact the appropriate person(s) at the Company for written clarification.

(iii) If Recipient is required to disclose any Company Confidential Information pursuant to applicable federal, state or local law, regulation or a valid order issued by a court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction (a “Legal Order”), prior to such disclosure Recipient shall use best efforts to provide the Company with (A) prompt written notice of such requirement so that the Company may seek, at its sole cost and expense, a protective order or other remedy; and (B) reasonable assistance in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. If, after providing such notice and assistance as required herein, Recipient remains required by a Legal Order to disclose any Company Confidential Information, the Recipient (or its Representatives or other persons to whom such Legal Order is directed) shall disclose no more than that portion of the Company Confidential Information which, in the written opinion of the Recipient's legal counsel, such Legal Order specifically requires the Recipient to disclose.

(d) Associated Third Party Information. Recipient recognizes that the Company has received, and in the future will receive, from third parties associated with the Company, such as the Company’s customers, suppliers, licensors, licensees, advisors, independent contractors, partners or collaborators (“Associated Third Parties”), their confidential or proprietary information (“Associated Third Party Confidential Information”), subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such Associated Third Party Confidential Information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. By way of example, 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. Recipient agrees at all times during the Relationship and thereafter, that Recipient owes the Company and its Associated Third Parties a duty to hold all such Associated Third Party Confidential Information in the strictest confidence, and not to use it or to disclose it to any other third party except as necessary in carrying out Recipient’s work for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such Associated Third Parties. Recipient further agrees to comply with any and all Company policies and guidelines that may be adopted from time to time regarding Associated Third Parties and Associated Third Party Confidential Information. Recipient understands that Recipient’s unauthorized use or disclosure of Associated Third Party Confidential Information or violation of any Company policies during or after the Relationship may lead to disciplinary action, up to, and including, immediate termination and additional legal action by the Company. Recipient understands that Recipient’s unauthorized use or disclosure of Company Confidential Information may lead to immediate termination of the Relationship and additional legal action by the Company.

(e) Former Employer Confidential Information. Recipient agrees that during the Relationship, Recipient has not and shall not improperly access, download, upload, store, use, disclose, or induce the Company to access, use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former employer or other person or entity with which Recipient has an obligation of confidentiality. Recipient further agrees that Recipient has not brought, and shall not bring, onto the Company’s premises or transfer onto the Company’s technology systems any unpublished document, proprietary information, or trade secrets or other confidential information belonging to any third party unless disclosure to, and use by, the Company has been consented to, in writing, by such third party.

(f) Defend Trade Secrets Act. Misappropriation of a trade secret of the Company in breach of this Agreement may subject Recipient to criminal liability under the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (the “DTSA”), entitle the Company to injunctive relief, and require Recipient to pay compensatory damages, double damages, and attorneys’ fees. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company hereby notifies Recipient in accordance with the DTSA that Recipient will 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 (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, in each case solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. The Company further notifies Recipient that if Recipient files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Recipient may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to Recipient’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if Recipient files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order.

(g) Other Rights. For the absence of doubt, this Agreement is intended to supplement, and not to supersede, any rights the Company may have in law or equity with respect to the protection of trade secrets or confidential or proprietary information.

3. Inventions.

(a) Company Inventions. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Inventions” means any and all prior, existing and future Inventions solely or jointly authored, discovered, developed, invented, conceived, or reduced to practice by Recipient (solely or jointly with others) (i) in connection with, relating to, or as a result of, the services performed for the Company, (ii) with the use of Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or Company Confidential Information, or (iii) otherwise relating to the Company’s actual or anticipated businesses, products, services, or research and development, except as otherwise provided in Section 3(g) or Section 3(h) below.

Recipient expressly agrees that this assignment includes a present conveyance to the Company of ownership of any of the Company Inventions that are not yet in existence. Recipient hereby waives and irrevocably quitclaims to the Company (and successors and designees) any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that Recipient now has or may hereafter have for infringement of any and all of the Company Inventions.

Recipient further acknowledges that all original works of authorship that are made by Recipient (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the period of the Relationship and that are protectable by Copyright are “works made for hire,” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act. “Copyright” means the exclusive legal right to reproduce, perform, display, distribute and make derivative works of a work of authorship (as a literary, musical, or artistic work) recognized by the laws of any jurisdiction or country.

Recipient further waives all of Recipient’s rights under the United States Copyright Act and under any other country’s copyright law, including any rights provided in 17 U.S.C. § 106 and 106A, for any and all purposes for which such work product and any derivative works thereof may be used to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by the laws of the United States of America or the laws of any other country.

(c) Moral Rights; Non-Assignable and Non-Licensable Rights. The assignment to the Company of the Company Inventions includes all rights of attribution, paternity, integrity, modification, disclosure, withdrawal, special, and any other similar rights throughout the world that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral,” or the like recognized by the laws of any jurisdiction or country (collectively, “Moral Rights”). To the extent that Moral Rights cannot be assigned under applicable law, Recipient hereby waives and agrees not to enforce any and all Moral Rights, including, without limitation, any limitation on subsequent modification, to the extent permitted under applicable law. Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that neither Recipient’s successors-in-interest nor legal heirs retain any Moral Rights in any Company Inventions (and any Intellectual Property Rights with respect thereto). To the extent any of the rights, title, and interests in and to Company Inventions cannot be assigned by Recipient to the Company, Recipient hereby grants to Company an exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, worldwide, fully paid-up license (with the right to grant and authorize multiple tiers of sublicenses) to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale, sell, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise exploit such Company Inventions, without restriction, including, without limitation, as part of, or in connection with, such Company Invention, and to practice any method related thereto. To the extent any of the rights, title, or interests in and to Company Inventions can neither be assigned nor licensed by Recipient to the Company, Recipient hereby irrevocably waives and agrees never to assert the non-assignable and non-licensable rights, title, and interests against the Company, any of the Company’s successors in interest, or any of the Company’s customers.

(d) Maintenance of Records. Recipient agrees to keep and maintain adequate, current, accurate and authentic written records of Company Inventions authored, discovered, developed, invented, conceived, or reduced to practice by Recipient (solely or jointly with others) during the term of the Relationship. The records may be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, flow charts, electronic files, reports, data or recordings, or any other format that may be specified by the Company. As between the Company and Recipient, the records are and shall be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times. Recipient agrees not to remove such records from the Company’s place of business except as expressly permitted by Company policy which may, from time to time, be revised at the sole election of the Company for the purpose of furthering the Company’s business. Recipient agrees to deliver all such records (including any copies thereof) to the Company upon the termination of the Relationship as provided in Section 5.

(e) Cooperation in Perfecting Rights. Recipient agrees to assist the Company, or its designee, at the Company’s expense, in every appropriate way to secure the Company’s, or its designee’s, rights in the Company Inventions and any Copyrights, patents, trademarks, mask work rights, Moral Rights, or other intellectual property rights recognized by the laws of any jurisdiction or country (collectively, “Intellectual Property Rights”) relating thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to the Company or its designee of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments, recordations, and all other instruments that the Company or its designee shall deem appropriate or necessary in order to apply for, register, obtain, maintain, defend, enforce and transfer such rights, or if not transferable, waive and agree never to assert such rights, and in order to deliver, assign and convey to the Company (and successors and designees) the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to such Company Inventions and any Intellectual Property Rights relating thereto, and testifying in a suit or other proceeding relating to such Company Inventions. Recipient further agrees that Recipient’s obligation to execute or cause to be executed, when it is in Recipient’s power to do so, any such instrument or papers shall continue during and at all times after the end of the Relationship and until the expiration of the last such intellectual property right to expire in any country of the world.

(f) Attorney-in-Fact. Recipient agrees that, if the Company is unable because of Recipient unavailability, mental or physical incapacity, or for any other reason to secure Recipient’s signature with respect to any Company Inventions, including, without limitation, for the purpose of applying for or pursuing any application for any United States or foreign Intellectual Property Rights registrations covering the Company Inventions assigned to the Company in Section 3(b), then Recipient hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Recipient’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on Recipient’s behalf to execute and file any instruments, papers and oaths, and to do all other lawfully permitted acts with respect to such Company Inventions to further the prosecution and issuance of Intellectual Property Rights registrations with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Recipient. This power of attorney shall be deemed coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable, and shall not be affected by Recipient’s subsequent incapacity.

(g) Prior Inventions. Recipient represents that Exhibit A provides a complete list describing with particularity any and all Inventions that, as of the Effective Date: (i) Recipient (or any Recipient assignee(s)) owns or has an interest, (ii) that may relate to the Company’s actual or anticipated businesses, products, services, or research and development, and (iii) that are not assigned to the Company under this Agreement (“Prior Inventions”); or, if no such list is attached, Recipient represents that there are no Prior Inventions, and to the extent such Prior Inventions do exist and are not listed on Exhibit A, Recipient hereby forever waives any and all rights or claims of ownership to such Prior Inventions. Recipient understands that Recipient’s listing of any Inventions on Exhibit A does not constitute an acknowledgement by the Company of the existence or extent of such Inventions, nor of Recipient’s ownership of such Inventions. Recipient shall not incorporate any Prior Inventions listed on Exhibit A, Prior Inventions required to be listed on Exhibit A or Inventions otherwise owned by any third party into any Company Invention without the Company’s prior written permission. Whether or not Recipient receives written permission, unless the Company otherwise specifically agrees in writing, Recipient hereby irrevocably grants to the Company a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, worldwide, fully paid-up license (with the right to grant and authorize multiple tiers of sublicenses) to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale, sell, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise exploit such Inventions, without restriction, including, without limitation, as part of, or in connection with, such Invention, and to practice any method related thereto.

(h) Exception to Assignments. Subject to the requirements of applicable state law, if any, Recipient understands that the Company Inventions shall not include, and the provisions of this Agreement requiring assignment of inventions to the Company do not apply to, any invention (an “Excluded Invention”) that qualifies fully for exclusion under the provisions of applicable state law, if any, other than those Company Inventions that are covered by a contract between the Company and the United States or any of its agencies that require full title to such Company Invention to be in the United States. In order to assist in the determination of which Inventions qualify for such exclusion, Recipient shall advise the Company promptly in writing, during the Relationship and for a period of 12 months immediately thereafter, of all Inventions that Recipient believes are Excluded Inventions pursuant to this Section 3(h) that solely or jointly authored, discovered, developed, invented, conceived, or reduced to practice by Recipient (i) in connection with, relating to, or as a result of, the services performed for the Company, (ii) with the use of Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or Company Confidential Information, or (iii) otherwise relating to the Company’s actual or anticipated businesses, products, services, or research and development.

Without limiting Section 4(a), Recipient represents and warrants that Recipient has no other agreements, relationships, or commitments to any other person or entity that conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, Recipient’s obligations to the Company under this Agreement, or Recipient’s ability to perform the services for which Recipient is being engaged by the Company. Recipient further agrees that if Recipient has signed a confidentiality agreement or similar type of agreement with any former client, employer or other third party, Recipient shall comply with the terms of any such agreement to the extent that its terms are lawful under applicable law. Recipient represents and warrants that after undertaking a careful search (including searches of Recipient’s computers, cell phones, electronic devices, and documents), Recipient have returned all property and confidential information belonging to all prior clients, employers and/or other third parties for which Recipient has performed services in accordance with the terms of Recipient’s applicable agreement. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that Recipient has provided the Company with copies of all agreements (e.g., non-competition agreements, non-solicitation of customers agreements, non-solicitation of employees agreements, confidentiality agreements, inventions agreements, etc.), if any, with a current or former client, employer, or any other third party, that may relate to or restrict Recipient’s ability to perform services for the Company, or fulfill any obligation Recipient may have to the Company. Moreover, Recipient agrees to fully indemnify the Company, its directors, officers, managers, members, agents, employees, investors, shareholders, administrators, affiliates, divisions, subsidiaries, predecessor and successor entities, and assigns for all verdicts, judgments, settlements, and other losses incurred by any of them resulting from Recipient’s breach of Recipient’s obligations under any agreement with a third party to which Recipient is a party or obligation to which Recipient is bound, as well as any reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs if the plaintiff is the prevailing party in such an action, except as prohibited by law.

(c) Jurisdiction; Venue; Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto knowingly, voluntarily, and irrevocably (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Colorado, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceedings may be heard and determined in any such court, (ii) expressly submits to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such court for the purposes hereof and expressly waives any claim of improper venue and any claim that such courts are an inconvenient forum, provided that the Company or its successors or assigns may seek injunctive or equitable relief from any court in any jurisdiction, and (iii) agrees that the other party to this Agreement may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consents, waivers and agreements of the parties.

(d) Equitable Relief. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that, by virtue of Recipient’s Relationship, the Services provided, and the access to and use of Company Confidential Information, any violation by Recipient of any of the undertakings contained in this Agreement would cause the Company immediate, substantial, and irreparable injury for which the Company has no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, Recipient agrees and consents to the entry of an injunction or other equitable relief (including but not limited to temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions) by a court of competent jurisdiction restraining any violation or threatened violation of any undertaking contained in this Agreement, in addition to and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have for a breach of this Agreement. Recipient waives posting of any bond otherwise necessary to secure such injunction or other equitable relief (or, where such a bond or security cannot be waived, Recipient agrees that a $1,000 bond shall be adequate). Rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and shall be in addition to rights and remedies otherwise available to the Company under any other agreement or applicable law.

(e) Administrative Relief. To the extent the Relationship is that of an employee, RECIPIENT UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT PROHIBIT RECIPIENT FROM PURSUING AN ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIM WITH A LOCAL, STATE, OR FEDERAL ADMINISTRATIVE BODY OR GOVERNMENT AGENCY THAT IS AUTHORIZED TO ENFORCE OR ADMINISTER LAWS RELATED TO EMPLOYMENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION (OR EQUIVALENT STATE AGENCY), THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD, OR THE WORKERS’ COMPENSATION BOARD.

Recipient represents and warrants that Recipient is not relying on, and hereby disclaims any reliance upon, any statement or representation of any kind or nature not expressly contained in this Agreement. For clarity, (i) Recipient’s obligations to the Company under this Agreement are separate from, and in addition to, any of Recipient’s obligations to the Company under any other agreement, and (ii) the execution of this Agreement does not release, limit or terminate any liability of, or breach by, Recipient under any confidentiality and invention assignment agreement or similar agreement previously executed by Recipient.

(g) Severability; Construction. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. Headings are used in this Agreement for reference only and shall not be considered when interpreting this Agreement.

(h) Applicability to Past Activities. Recipient agrees that if and to the extent that, during any Prior Engagement Period (defined below): (i) Recipient received access to any information that would have been Company Confidential Information if Recipient received access to such information during the Relationship; or (ii) Recipient authored, discovered, developed, invented, conceived, or reduced to practice any Invention, including any Intellectual Property Rights with respect thereto, that would have been a Company Invention if authored, discovered, developed, invented, conceived, or reduced to practice during the Relationship; then any such information shall be deemed Company Confidential Information hereunder and any such Invention shall be deemed a Company Invention hereunder, and this Agreement shall apply to such information or Invention as if authored, discovered, developed, invented, conceived, or reduced to practice under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Prior Engagement Period” means any period of time prior to the date of this Agreement and/or the Relationship that Recipient provided services to the Company or to a predecessor in interest thereof.

(i) Amendments and Waivers. Except as provided in Section 10(g), no modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, shall be effective unless in a writing signed by Recipient and a duly authorized officer of the Company. No delay or failure to require performance of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of that provision as to that or any other instance. Waiver by the Company of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. Any refusal or failure of the Company or its successors or assigns to enforce any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement against Recipient, for any reason, shall not constitute an act of precedent or a defense to the enforcement by the Company or its successors or assigns of the restrictive covenants set forth herein.

(j) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon Recipient’s heirs, executors, assigns, administrators, and other legal representatives, and shall be for the benefit of the Company, its successors, and its assigns. There are no intended third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement, except as may be expressly otherwise stated. The Company may freely assign this Agreement and any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement.
