Each installment of the Separation Payment shall be paid on the first business day of each month for the applicable number of months specified above, beginning with the first such date that is after the effective date of the above-reference separation agreement that the Executive will be required to sign.

(c) Compliance with Section 409A

(i) General. It is the intention of both the Company and the Executive that the benefits and rights to which the Executive could be entitled pursuant to this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and other guidance promulgated or issued thereunder (“Section 409A”), to the extent that the requirements of Section 409A are applicable thereto, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with that intention. If the Executive or the Company believes, at any time, that any such benefit or right that is subject to Section 409A does not comply, it shall promptly advise the other and shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights such that they comply with Section 409A (with the most limited possible economic effect on the Executive and on the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Executive that the payments or benefits provided under this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Executive or any beneficiary of the Executive for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Executive or any beneficiary of the Executive may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with respect thereto, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.

(ii) “Distribution” on Account of Separation from Service. If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Executive’s services hereunder shall be made unless and until the Executive incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(iii) 6 Month Delay for Specified Executive.

(iv) No Acceleration of Payments. Neither the Company nor the Executive, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Section 409A, except in compliance with Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount that is subject to Section 409A shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it may be paid without violating Section 409A.

(v) Exception for Separation Payments. To the extent that the payment of any portion of the Severance Payment constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A, such portion of the Severance Payment shall be paid no later than March 15 of the year immediately following the year of the Executive’s termination and in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll schedule and practices.

(vi) Treatment of Each Installment as a Separate Payment and Timing of Payments. For purposes of applying the provisions of Section 409A to this Agreement, each separately identified amount to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In addition, to the extent permissible under Section 409A, any series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.

(vii) Taxable Reimbursements and In-Kind Benefits.

(d) Section 280G of the Code.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement, or agreement to the contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by the Company or its affiliates to the Executive or for the Executive’s benefit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (“Covered Payments”) constitute excess parachute payments (“Parachute Payments”) within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and would, but for this Section, be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then, prior to making the Covered Payments, a calculation shall be made comparing (A) the Net Benefit (as defined below) to the recipient of the Covered Payments after payment of the Excise Tax to (B) the Net Benefit to the Executive if the Covered Payments are limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (A) above is less than the amount under (B) above will the Covered Payments be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the Covered Payments is subject to the Excise Tax (that amount, the “Reduced Amount”). “Net Benefit” shall mean the present value of the Covered Payments, net of all federal, state, local, foreign income, employment and excise taxes (including the Excise Tax).

(ii) Any such reduction shall be made in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and shall be made by the Company in its sole discretion consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(iii) Any determination required under this Section, including whether any Covered Payments or other benefits are Parachute Payments, shall be made by the Company in its sole discretion. The Executive shall provide the Company with such information and documents as the Company may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company’s determination shall be final and binding on the Executive.

(iv) It is possible that, after the determinations and selections made pursuant to this Section, the Executive will receive Covered Payments that are in the aggregate more than the amount provided under this Section (an “Overpayment”). In the event of an assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) against either the Company or the Executive, which the Company reasonably believes has a high probability of success, that an Overpayment has been made or it is established pursuant to a final determination of a court or an IRS proceeding that has been finally and conclusively resolved that an Overpayment has been made, then the Executive shall pay any such Overpayment to the Company, together with any interest request by the IRS.

The Executive acknowledges that (a) during the Employment Period, and as a part of his employment, Executive will be afforded access to Confidential Information and goodwill; (b) public disclosure of such Confidential Information could have an adverse effect on the Company and its business; (c) because Executive possesses substantial technical and business expertise and skill with respect to the Company’s business, Employer desires to obtain exclusive ownership of each Executive Invention, Executive trade secrets, and the Parties agree that Employer will be at a substantial competitive disadvantage if it fails to acquire exclusive ownership of each Executive Invention; (d) Employer has required that Executive make the covenants in this Section 5 as a condition of Executive’s employment with the Company; and (e) the provisions of this Section 5 are reasonable and necessary to prevent the improper use or disclosure of Confidential Information and to provide Employer with exclusive ownership of all Executive Inventions.

In consideration of the compensation and benefits to be paid or provided to Executive by Employer under this Agreement, Executive covenants as follows:

(a) Confidentiality

(i) During and following the Employment Period, Executive will hold in confidence all Confidential Information and will not disclose it to any person except with the specific prior written consent of the Company or except as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) Any trade secrets of the Company will be entitled to all of the protections and benefits under applicable law. If any information that the Company deems to be a trade secret is found by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a trade secret for purposes of this Agreement, such information will, nevertheless, be considered Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement. The Executive hereby waives any requirement that Employer submits proof of the economic value of any trade secret or posts a bond or other security.

(iii) None of the foregoing obligations and restrictions applies to any part of the Confidential Information that Executive demonstrates was or became generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Executive.

(iv) Executive will not remove from Employer’s premises (except to the extent such removal is for purposes of the performance of Executive’s duties at home or while traveling, or except as otherwise specifically authorized by Employer) any document, record, notebook, plan, model, component, device, or computer software or code, whether embodied in a disk or in any other form (collectively, the “Proprietary Items”). Executive recognizes that, as between the Company and Executive, all of the Proprietary Items, whether or not developed by Executive, are the exclusive property of the Company. Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, or upon the request of Employer during the Employment Period, Executive will immediately return to Employer all of the Proprietary Items in Executive’s possession or subject to Executive’s control, and Executive shall not retain any copies, abstracts, sketches, or other physical embodiment of any of the Proprietary Items.

(v) Post-Employment. Executive’s obligations under this section continue after his employment with the Company ends; provided that Executive’s post-employment obligations contained herein with respect to Confidential Information shall not apply if and to the extent Executive demonstrates that: (i) the same information was in Executive’s possession prior to Executive’s employment by the Company; (ii) the same information is or becomes generally available to the public and such public availability is not the result, directly or indirectly, of any fault of, or improper taking, use or disclosure by, Executive or anyone working in concert or participation with Executive; or (iii) Executive obtains the information properly, from a source that was free to disclose it, and under circumstances such that Executive neither knew nor had reason to know that such information had been acquired, used or disclosed improperly.

(vi) Defend Trade Secrets Act. Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any U.S. Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (a)(i) in confidence to a U.S. Federal, State or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. If Executive files a lawsuit against the Company for retaliation by the Company for reporting by Executive of a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Executive (x) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to conflict with 18 U.S.C. §1833(b) or create liability for disclosures of trade secrets that are expressly allowed by 18 U.S.C. §1833(b).

(b) Executive Inventions. Each Executive Invention will belong exclusively to Employer. The Executive acknowledges that all of Executive’s writing, works of authorship, specially commissioned works listed in Schedule 5.2(b), and other Executive Inventions are works made for hire and the property of Employer, including any copyrights, patents, or other intellectual property rights pertaining thereto. If it is determined that any such works are not works made for hire, Executive hereby assigns to Employer all of Executive’s right, title, and interest, including all rights of copyright, patent, and other intellectual property rights, to or in such Executive Inventions. The Executive covenants that he will promptly:

(i) disclose to Employer in writing any Executive Invention;

(ii) assign to Employer or to a party designated by Employer, at Employer’s request and without additional compensation, all of Executive’s rights to Executive Inventions for the United States and all foreign jurisdictions;

(iii) execute and deliver to Employer such applications, assignments, and other documents as Employer may request in order to apply for and obtain patents or other registrations with respect to any Executive Invention in the United States and any foreign jurisdictions;

(iv) sign all other papers necessary to carry out the above obligations; and

(v) give testimony and render any other assistance but without expense to Executive in support of Employer’s rights to any Executive Invention.

The Executive acknowledges that: (a) the services to be performed by him under this Agreement are of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary, and intellectual in character; (b) that Executive utilizes Company’s Confidential Information (including trade secrets) and goodwill in the performance of his duties under this Agreement; (c) Employer competes with other businesses in the digital content management for local broadcaster space; and (d) the provisions of this Section 6 are reasonable and necessary to protect Employer’s business and will not result in any undue hardship to Executive.

In consideration of the acknowledgments by Executive, and in consideration of the compensation and benefits to be paid or provided to Executive by Company, Executive covenants that he will not, directly or indirectly:

(a) during the Employment Period and for a period of one (1) year after termination of the Agreement, within the Restricted Area, engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of, be employed by, associated with, or in any manner connected with, lend Executive’s name or any similar name to, lend Executive’s credit to or render services or advice to, any esports business whose products or activities directly compete in whole or in material part with the products or activities of the Company in the esports field;

(b) whether for Executive’s own account or for the account of any other person, at any time during the Employment Period and for one (1) year following termination of the Agreement, solicit business of the same or similar type being carried on by the Company, from any person known by Executive to have been a customer, client, prime contractor, subcontractor or strategic partner of the Company during the Employment Period, where the Executive had personal contact with such person or entity, or learned of such person or entity, during and by reason of Executive’s employment with the Company and the revenue derived by the Company from such person or entity during the last twelve months of the Employment Period was in excess of US$50,000;

(c) whether for Executive’s own account or the account of any other person (i) at any time during the Employment Period and for one (1) year following termination of the Agreement, solicit, employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, any person who is or was an employee or contractor of the Company at any time during the Employment Period or in any manner induce or attempt to induce any employee or contractor of Employer to terminate his employment or consultancy with the Company; or (ii) at any time during the Employment Period and for two (2) years following termination of the Agreement, interfere with the Company’s relationship with any person, including any person who at any time during the Employment Period was an employee, contractor (prime or sub-), supplier, or customer of the Company; or

(d) at any time during or after the Employment Period, disparage the Company or any of its shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or agents.

Executive acknowledges and agrees: (a) that if a court of competent jurisdiction subsequently determines that any of such covenant in this Section 6.2, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of such covenants and agreements shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect without regard to the invalid portions; and (b) if any court determines that any of the covenants in this Section 6.2, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable because of the duration or scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce, modify, or reformation the duration or scope of such provision to the fullest extent provided by law, as the case may be, and, in its reduced, modified or reformed form, such provision shall then be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

If Executive violates one of the post-employment restrictions in this Agreement on which there is a specific time limitation, the time period for that restriction will be extended by one day for each day Executive violates it, up to a maximum extension equal to the length of time originally prescribed for the restriction, so as to give Company the full benefit of the bargained-for length of forbearance.

Executive acknowledges that the injury that would be suffered by the Company as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Agreement (including any provision of Sections 5 and 6) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to the Company for such a breach would be an inadequate remedy. Consequently, the Company will have the right, in addition to any other rights they may have, to seek injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this Agreement and will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief. Without limiting the Company’s rights under this Section 7 or any other of their remedies, if Executive breaches any of the provisions of Section 5 or 6, the Company will have the right to cease making any payments otherwise due to Executive under this Agreement until such breach has been remedied or cured. Any and all of Company’s remedies for the breach of this Agreement shall be cumulative and the pursuit of one remedy shall not be deemed to exclude any and all other remedies with respect to the subject matter hereof.

The covenants by Executive in Sections 5 and 6 are essential elements of this Agreement, and without Executive’s agreement to comply with such covenants, Employer would not have entered into this Agreement or employed the Executive. Employer and Executive have independently consulted their respective counsel and have been advised in all respects concerning the reasonableness and propriety of such covenants, with specific regard to the nature of the business conducted by Employer.

The Executive’s covenants in Sections 5 and 6 are independent covenants and the existence of any claim by Executive against Employer under this Agreement or otherwise or against Employer will not excuse Executive’s breach of any covenant in Section 5 or 6.

If Executive’s employment hereunder expires or is terminated, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect as is necessary or appropriate to enforce the covenants and agreements of Executive in Sections 5 and 6.

Executive represents and warrants to Employer that the execution and delivery by Executive of this Agreement do not, and the performance by Executive of Executive’s obligations hereunder will not, with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both: (a) violate any judgment, writ, injunction, or order of any court, arbitrator, or governmental agency applicable to the Company; or (b) conflict with, result in the breach of any provisions of or the termination of, or constitute a default under, any agreement to which Executive is a party or by which Executive is or may be bound.

The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by either party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement.

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon (without any further action by Executive required), the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, and legal representatives, including any entity with which Employer may merge or consolidate or to which all or substantially all of its assets may be transferred. The duties and covenants of Executive under this Agreement, being personal, may not be delegated.

All notices, consents, waivers, and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when (a) delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (b) sent by facsimile (with written confirmation of receipt), provided that a copy is mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or (c) when received by the addressee, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service (receipt requested), in each case to the appropriate addresses and facsimile numbers or to such other addresses and facsimile numbers as a party may designate by notice to the other parties.

This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the Parties hereto regarding the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the Parties hereto.

This Agreement shall be construed according to the laws of the United States of America and the State of Texas, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. Both Parties hereby expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction of the State and Federal Courts located in Collin County, Texas in any legal action filed by either party arising from or related to this Agreement. In any legal action brought by either party to enforce the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party the cost of such action, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

The headings of Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Section” or “Sections” refer to the corresponding Section or Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word “including” does not limit the preceding words or terms.

If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments required to be made by the Company hereunder to the Executive or his estate or beneficiaries shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may reasonably determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. In lieu of withholding such amounts, in whole or in part, the Company may, in its sole discretion, accept other provisions for payment of taxes and withholding as required by law, provided it is satisfied that all requirements of law affecting its responsibilities to withhold have been satisfied.

The Executive acknowledges having read and considered all of the provisions of this Agreement carefully, and having had the opportunity to consult with counsel of his own choosing, and, given this, the Executive agrees that the obligations created hereby are not unreasonable. The Executive acknowledges that he has had an opportunity to negotiate any and all of these provisions and no rule of construction shall be used that would interpret any provision in favor of or against a party on the basis of who drafted the Agreement.

Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent the Company or the Executive from seeking and recovering from the other damages sustained by either or both of them as a result of its or his breach of any term or provision of this Agreement.

THE EXECUTIVE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT THE EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY AGREEMENT, DOCUMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by Employee. The Company may sell, assign, and transfer all of its right, title and interests in this Agreement without the prior consent of Employee, whether by operation of law or otherwise, in which case this Agreement shall remain in full force after such sale, assignment or other transfer and may be enforced by (a) any successor, assignee or transferee of all or any part of the Company’s business as fully and completely as it could be enforced by the Company if no such sale, assignment or transfer had occurred, and (b) the Company in the case of any sale, assignment or other transfer of a part, but not all, of the business. Employee’s duties and obligations under this Agreement shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and shall, likewise, continue to apply and be valid notwithstanding any change in Employee’s duties, compensation, responsibilities, position or title and/or the assignment of this Agreement by the Company.
