1. The Services

1.1 The Company hereby engages the Consultant as of the Effective Date as an independent consultant and the Consultant hereby agrees to serve as a consultant to the Company and provide the consulting services specified in Schedule 1.1 attached hereto (the “Services”), as may be amended from time to time upon the mutual agreement of the parties.

1.5 Where the nature of the Services so require, the Consultant shall be responsible for maintaining, at the Consultant’s own expense, a place of work, any necessary equipment and supplies, and appropriate communications facilities.

1

1.6 Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as preventing or restricting the Company in obtaining or seeking from any other person services of the same nature as the Services. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as preventing or restricting Consultant from supplying services to any third party, as long as such services to third parties (i) do not conflict with any obligation or undertaking of the Consultant hereunder, and (ii) do not interfere with the performance of or restrict the ability of the Consultant to perform the Services hereunder. However, Consultant has not and will not, during the term of this Agreement, enter into any agreement that would substantially affect Consultant’s ability to provide the Services. Consultant represents that the performance of the Services will not breach any agreement or obligation with any third party, including any obligation to refrain from engaging in activities that may compete with such third party.

1.7 Consultant represents and warrants that Consultant is permitted to enter into this Agreement pursuant to the Applicable Laws and professional rules and guidelines and any policies concerning conflict of interest, competing activities, professional consulting and additional workload. Consultant agrees not to make any use of any funds, space, personnel, facilities, equipment or other resources of a third party in performing the Services, nor take any other action that would result in a third party asserting ownership of, or other rights in, any Records or Inventions related to the Services.

2. Records; Company’s Right to Audit.

2.1 Consultant will maintain complete and accurate records, accounts, reports and data pertaining to the Services in accordance with the Applicable Laws and professional rules and guidelines. During the term of this Agreement and for any longer period specified by the Applicable Laws, Consultant will maintain all materials, information, databases and records, accounts, reports, and data obtained or generated by Consultant in the course of providing the Services (collectively, the “Records”), including all computerized records and files, in a non-public and secure area, in accordance with Applicable Laws. Company may at any time have access to any and all records for the Services (and will be permitted to make copies thereof). At Company’s request, Consultant will cooperate with any regulatory authorities and allow them access to applicable Records and data. Consultant will promptly inform Company of any request or effort by any regulatory authority to review Records and data, or to contact, visit, or inspect Consultant’s Records and data, relating to the Services, and will notify Company immediately (and in no event later than within one calendar day) if any regulatory authority issues or gives to Consultant any notice of intent to inspect, notice of inspection, notice of inspectional observations, warning letter, or other written communication concerning the Services, and Consultant immediately (and in no event later than within one calendar day) will provide Company copies thereof. Where reasonable and practical, Company will have the opportunity to be present at such an inspection, at its own cost. Company will have the opportunity to review, revise, and/or approve of any response prior to submission of a response by Consultant to any regulatory authority submitted by Consultant during the course of the inspection. For the avoidance of doubt, Consultant shall not provide any regulatory authority with any documentation or provide regulatory authorities with any undertakings without the prior specific written approval of Company. Consultant shall immediately, and no later than 24 hours after the submission of such documents to the authority, provide Company with copies of all documents provided to any regulatory authority.

3.1 All information provided by Company or on Company’s behalf, all data and information collected or generated by Consultant for or on behalf of Company in the performance of the Services and all Records and Inventions, are deemed to be the confidential information of Company (“Confidential Information”) and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Company. Consultant will not disclose Confidential Information to any third party or use Confidential Information for any purpose other than for the performance of the Services, without the prior written consent of Company. Consultant will exercise due care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent the unauthorized disclosure and use of Confidential Information. Confidential Information will not include information that (a) was known by Consultant before disclosure by Company in connection with the Services or this Agreement, with no restriction, (b) is independently discovered by Consultant, after the Effective Date, without use of or access to the Confidential Information, as evidenced by written records, (c) is in the public domain on the Effective Date or subsequently becomes publicly available through no fault or action of Consultant, or (d) is disclosed to Consultant by a third party not known by Consultant to be under any obligation prohibiting the disclosure of such information. If Consultant is required to disclose any Confidential Information or the substance of this Agreement in connection with a legal or administrative proceeding or otherwise to comply with a requirement imposed by the Applicable Laws and Regulations, Consultant will give Company, to the extent legally permissible, prompt notice (prior to disclosure, if possible) of such request so that Company may seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, or waive compliance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement. If Company seeks a protective order or other remedy, Consultant will, at Company’s expense, reasonably cooperate with and assist Company in such efforts. In any case, Consultant will only disclose that portion of Confidential Information that Consultant is advised by its counsel is required to be disclosed.

5.2 The Consulting Fees are inclusive of any and all taxes, and the Consultant shall bear full responsibility for all tax obligations of any kind or nature relating, directly or indirectly, to the Consulting Fees and otherwise to the Services hereunder.

All matters related to such Options, including but not limited to the exercise price and the required execution of any governing agreement and/or other documentation, shall be subject to the sole discretion of the Company Board. It is understood that nothing herein is intended to constitute a grant of, or right to, any share capital of the Company, and it is hereby confirmed that the Consultant shall be solely responsible for any tax liability incurred in connection with the Options, including but not limited to with respect to the grant, exercise, and/or sale of such Options.

If the Board of Directors of the Company approves a transaction bonus pool program to be used by the Chief Executive Officer (in her sole discretion) to reward certain employees and other personnel for their work related to the consummation of a Merger/Sale (as such term is defined under the Company’s 2017 Share Incentive Plan (as amended), then the Company will consider, in the Chief Executive Officer’s sole discretion, including Consultant as a recipient in such transaction bonus pool program.

In addition, if any particular provision contained in this Undertaking shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed by limiting and reducing the scope of such provision so that the provision is enforceable to the fullest extent compatible with applicable law.

No amendment of or waiver of, or modification of any obligation under this Undertaking will be enforceable unless set forth in a writing signed by the Company. No delay or failure to require performance of any provision of this Undertaking shall constitute a waiver of that provision as to that or any other instance. No waiver granted under this Undertaking as to any one provision herein shall constitute a subsequent waiver of such provision or of any other provision herein, nor shall it constitute the waiver of any performance other than the actual performance specifically waived.

4.8 This Undertaking, the rights of the Company hereunder, and the obligations of Consultant hereunder, will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives.
