6.2 Disability.

(a) If Employee becomes “Disabled” (as hereinafter defined) during the Term, the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be deemed “Disabled” if Employee is unable, as a result of any medically determinable physical or mental disease or impairment, to discharge with or without reasonable accommodation the essential functions of Employee’s job for a continuous period of 120 days or a cumulative period of 180 days during any 12-month period.

(b) If the Company determines that Employee has become Disabled and elects to terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company as a result thereof, the Company shall deliver written notice (the “Disability Notice”) thereof to Employee. Within five days after delivery of a Disability Notice by the Company, Employee may dispute the Company’s claim that he is disabled by delivering a written notice (the “Dispute Notice”) thereof to the Company. Employee’s failure to deliver the Dispute Notice within said five-day period shall be deemed an election not to dispute the Company’s determination that Employee is disabled or the Company’s election to terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company. Within five days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, Employee and the Company shall each select a duly licensed physician, and such licensed physicians shall then mutually appoint a third duly licensed physician, who shall examine Employee for the purpose of determining whether Employee is Disabled for purposes of this Agreement and whose determination shall be binding on the Company and Employee. Said third physician shall endeavor to make a determination as to the Disability of Employee as soon as possible, but in no event later than 14 days after such appointment.

Said payments of the Accrued Obligations shall be made on the same dates as such payments would have been paid to Employee had he not become Disabled. Any termination for Disability under this Agreement shall not affect the rights, if any, that Employee may otherwise have under any other disability plan the Company may have in effect at the date of such termination and in which Employee is then participating.

6.3 For Cause or Without Good Reason. The Company may terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company for “Cause,” and Employee may terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company without “Good Reason” (as defined in Section 6.4), each upon at least 10 days’ notice to the other party. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean that one of the following events shall have occurred (the “Cause Events”): (i) Employee having been convicted of, or having pleaded guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony (other than a traffic violation or by reason of vicarious liability) or a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude; (ii) Employee’s substantial and repeated failure or refusal to perform his lawful duties under this Agreement, except during periods of physical or mental incapacity, or otherwise materially breach his obligations under this Agreement; (iii) Employee’s willful misconduct or gross negligence with respect to any material aspect of the Company’s business, which willful misconduct or gross negligence has a material and demonstrable adverse effect on the Company; or (iv) any material misappropriation or embezzlement of the property of the Company or any of its affiliates by Employee. The Board of Directors shall provide written notice to Employee setting forth the applicable Cause Event, and (with respect to the occurrence of a Cause Event occurring pursuant either to subclause (ii) or (iii) above) Employee shall have 15 days (the “Cure Period”) in which to cure such Cause Event. If Employee fails to cure said Cause Event within the Cure Period, this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company shall terminate without any further action of the parties as of the end of the Cure Period. If this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company are terminated by the Company with Cause, or if Employee terminates this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company without Good Reason, the Company shall have no further obligation to Employee other than the obligation of Company to pay to Employee the Accrued Obligations. Said payments of the Accrued Obligations shall be made on the same dates as such payments would have been paid to Employee had this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company not been terminated for Cause or had Employee not terminated this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company without Good Reason.

6.4 Without Cause or for Good Reason. The Company may terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company at any time without

Cause, and Employee may terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company at any time with “Good Reason.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean that one of the following events shall have occurred and shall not have been cured by the Company within 30 days after receipt of written notice from Employee of the occurrence of such event delivered to the Company within 90 days of the occurrence of such event: (i) the Company shall have reduced Employee’s Base Salary, materially diminished Employee’s duties, responsibilities or authority, materially changed Employee’s reporting structure, or otherwise breached the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement then in effect between Employee and the Company (or any of its affiliates); or (ii) the Company shall have relocated the principal location at which Employee is to provide his services hereunder to a location more than 15 miles from , , , . If this Agreement and Employee’s employment with the Company are terminated by the Company without Cause or are terminated by Employee for Good Reason, the Company shall (a) pay to Employee the Accrued Obligations, and (b) pay to Employee his then current Base Salary and then current Benefits from the effective date of termination up through and until the date which is six months from the date of termination (the “Severance Period”). Said payments of the Accrued Obligations and the amounts due in respect of the Severance Period shall be made within 30 days after the effective termination date. Any payments received through the subsequent employment with or performance of services for another entity, through self- employment or otherwise, during or after the Severance Period (including, without limitation, salaries, fees, commissions, bonuses and consulting fees) shall not reduce any amounts payable by the Company to Employee pursuant to this Section 6.4.

It is the intent of the parties that the terms and conditions of the Applicable Agreements and the making of any payment thereunder shall not result in a plan failure subject to Code Section 409A(a)(1). The Applicable Agreements shall be interpreted in a manner to prevent the occurrence of a plan failure subject to Code Section 409A(a)(1) and to comply with the Section 409A Provisions. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Applicable Agreements to the contrary, if the Company or Employee determines that any payment or benefit to Employee under the Applicable Agreements may be subject to Code Section 409A(a)(1), Company and Employee, at the request of either but with the written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall adopt such amendments to the Applicable Agreements or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect) or take any other actions necessary or appropriate to cause the compensation and benefits payable under the Applicable Agreements to comply with the Section 409A Provisions, to be not subject to Code Section 409A(a)(1), and to preserve the intended tax treatment of such payments and the benefits under the Applicable Agreements.

(b) If a Covered Payment is payable upon a separation from service of the Employee, the term separation from service shall have the meaning set forth in Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h).

Section 409A- 1(i), the Covered Payments payable upon a separation of service shall not be paid before the date that is six months after the separation from service or, if earlier, the date of death of Employee. Any Covered Payment which is delayed pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid on the first business day of the seventh month following the separation from service of Employee.

(d) If a Covered Payment is payable at a specified time or on a fixed schedule which does not comply with the requirements of Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1), the Applicable Agreements shall be modified to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1).

(e) No acceleration of the time or schedule of any Covered Payment shall be made. No Covered Payment may be alienated, sold or used to secure a loan. The prohibition set forth in this Section 6.5 shall not apply to any Covered Payment to the extent such Covered Payment qualifies for an exception pursuant to Reg. Section 1-409A- 3(j)(4).

(f) If any Applicable Agreement or policy of Company provides for separation pay, including the payments provided by Section 6 of this Agreement, the terms and conditions under which such separation pay is payable to Employee shall be modified if necessary, but only to the extent necessary, to satisfy the requirements of Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) to qualify the separation pay for the exception from characterization as deferred income.

(a) The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state, and/or local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to applicable law or regulations, which amounts shall be deemed to have been paid to Employee.

(b) If any payment under this Agreement is an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code, the amount of such payment shall be increased by an amount (the “adjustment amount”) such that the increased payment, after reduction for incremental taxes, as defined below, shall produce a net payment equal to the amount otherwise payable to Employee if such payment were not an “excess parachute payment.” Incremental taxes shall mean the following taxes: (i) the tax imposed by Code Section 4999 on the excess parachute payment and the adjustment amount, (ii) the hospital insurance tax imposed by Code Section 3101(b) on the adjustment amount, (iii) the federal income tax on the adjustment amount determined at the highest rate of tax imposed by Code Section 1, and (iv) the state and local income tax on the adjustment amount at the highest rates of tax imposed by each applicable state or local income taxing law.

Employee will promptly disclose in writing to the Board of Directors complete information concerning all Property developed, created or conceived by Employee, either solely or in collaboration with others. To the extent the Property, or any portion thereof, is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or administrative agency not to be a “work made for hire,” Employee hereby assigns all proprietary rights in the Property to Company without further compensation, and further agrees to execute, without any further compensation, any and all documents deemed necessary or appropriate by Company to effectuate a complete transfer of ownership of all rights to Company throughout the universe. Employee also agrees that Company shall have the sole and exclusive right in perpetuity to use, exploit, distribute and otherwise turn to account any or all of the Property, and that Company may modify, change or alter all or any part of the Property, all as Company may determine from time to time in its sole discretion. Employee hereby waives any “artist’s rights” or “moral rights” which Employee might otherwise have in any Property. Employee hereby agrees that Company may modify or change any Property in its sole or absolute discretion without notice to or consent of Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Property” shall not apply to or include, and the Company shall have no rights in, any intellectual property then in the public domain, or any intellectual property that Employee developed entirely on Employee’s own time without using the Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for that intellectual property that either: (i) relates at the time of conception or reduction to practice of such intellectual property to the Company’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the Company; or (ii) result from any work performed by the Employee for the Company.

8. Proprietary Information.

8.1 Defined. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee has learned and obtained information, and will in the future learn and obtain information, tangible or intangible, relating to: (i) the Company, its “affiliates” (as defined below) and their respective owners (collectively, the “Company Parties”); (ii) employees or independent contractors of the Company Parties; (iii) the customers and clients of the Company Parties; and/or (iv) the business, operations, prospects and condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company Parties, such employees, independent contractors, customers and clients (collectively, “Proprietary Information”). Proprietary Information includes, but is not limited to, any and all written or electronic research, developments, engineering plans, trade secrets, know-how, inventions, techniques, processes, customer lists, financial data, sales, marketing or merchandising plans, specifications, blueprints, designs, budgets, schedules, source code, drawings, tapes, notes, works derived from source code and agreements. For purposes of this Agreement,

an “affiliate” means (a) any individual or entity that owns (directly or indirectly) at least 50% of the outstanding equity securities (determined on a fully diluted basis) of the Company including but not limited to Holdco (a “Parent”), or (b) any individual or entity whose equity securities (determined on a fully diluted basis) are at least 50% owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company or the Company’s Parent.

8.2 Employee Obligations. Employee agrees to hold all Proprietary Information (whether received prior to or during Employee’s employment with the Company) in strict confidence and trust for the sole benefit of Company and not to, directly or indirectly, disclose, use, copy, publish or summarize any Proprietary Information, except or unless (i) during Employee’s employment with the Company, to the extent necessary to carry out Employee’s responsibilities under this Agreement; (ii) after termination of this Agreement, as specifically authorized in writing by the Board of Directors or as required by any law, court order or similar process or proceeding; (iii) such Proprietary Information is or becomes publicly known through lawful means; (iv) the Proprietary Information was rightfully in Employee’s possession or part of his general knowledge prior to his employment with the Company or Psyop Productions, LLC, and Employee did not learn of it, directly or indirectly, from the Company or Psyop Productions, LLC; or (v) such Proprietary Information is disclosed to Employee without confidential or proprietary restriction by a third party who rightfully possesses such Proprietary Information (without confidential or proprietary restriction) and did not learn of it, directly or indirectly, from any Company Party. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Employee shall return to the Company all books, records, notes, manuals, recordings, and other personal property and tangible Proprietary Information obtained or prepared by Employee during the course of his employment, or otherwise belonging to the Company.

8.3 Economic Value to Company and its Customers; Potential Liabilities. Employee acknowledges that Proprietary Information has significant economic value to the Company Parties, employees, independent contractors, customers and clients, which constitutes a substantial basis and foundation upon which the business of the Company Parties (and such customers and clients) is predicated, due to the fact that the Proprietary Information is not generally known to the public, and that the unauthorized use or disclosure of the Proprietary Information is likely to be extremely detrimental to the interests of the Company Parties and its customers and clients, and so may result in injunctive and other equitable relief, as well as liability for damages and other civil or criminal liability.

9. Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

9.1 Covenants Not to Compete. Except in connection with his performance of services for the Company, Employee agrees that at no time between the Effective Date and the termination of this Agreement will he, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors, (i) directly or indirectly engage in; or (ii) have any direct or indirect interest in (whether as a proprietor, partner, investor, shareholder, member or lender) any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other

entity (each, an “Entity”) that directly or indirectly is or expects to engage in; or (iii) assist or render services (whether or not for compensation, and whether as a director, officer, employee, agent, advisor or consultant) to or for any Entity that, directly or indirectly, is engaged in or expects to become engaged in, any business conducted by the Company during the Term. This Section 9.1 shall not apply to the Entities and the services which Employee may perform for such Entities, directly or indirectly, which are set forth in Schedule A hereto.

9.2 Covenant Not to Solicit or Interfere. Employee agrees that, between the Effective Date and the termination of this Agreement, he will not, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors, directly or indirectly (i) solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert or take away, any individual who is on or at any time during the Term an employee of any Company Party, or induce or attempt to induce any such employee to terminate his/her employment with such Company Party; or (ii) solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert or take away, any individual or Entity who is, upon or at any time during the Term a customer or client of any Company Party, or advise or induce any such individual or Entity not to continue as a customer or client of such Company Party.

9.3 Exclusion for Publicly Traded Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Employee may own (beneficially or of record) securities issued by any Entity, if such securities are listed on any national securities exchange or are registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and such ownership does not exceed 5% of the aggregate issued and outstanding shares or units of such securities.

9.4 Blue Penciling. In the event any provision of this Section 9 is held by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless continue in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way. Without in any way limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, in the event the covenant not to compete contained herein, in the view of a court or arbitrator asked to rule upon the issue, is deemed unenforceable by reason of covering too large an area, too long a period of time or too many business activities, then the same shall be deemed to cover only the largest area, the longest time period or the most business activities, as the case may be, which will not render it unenforceable. In the event in any proceeding, a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator shall refuse to enforce any of the separate covenants deemed included in this Section 9, then such unenforceable covenants shall be deemed deleted from this Section 9 to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced.

9.5 Covenants Reasonable. Employee agrees that the covenants provided for in this Section 9, including the term and geographical area encompassed therein, are necessary and reasonable in order to protect the Company in the conduct of its businesses and the utilization of the Proprietary Information of the Company, including good will.

With respect to each and every breach or violation or threatened breach or violation by Employee of Sections 7, 8 or 9 above, the Company, in addition to all other remedies available to it at law or in equity (including, without limitation, specific performance of the provisions hereof), shall be entitled to seek to enjoin the commencement or continuance thereof and may apply in arbitration or in any court of competent jurisdiction for entry of equitable relief, as permitted by law, including, without limitation, an immediate restraining order or injunction, without the necessity of posting a bond or other surety.

11. Agreement to Arbitrate.
