Appointment of Omar Karim as Chief Revenue Officer.

 

On November 18, 2025 (“Effective Date”), Adapti, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Omar Karim to serve as the Chief Revenue Officer of the Company.

 

Omar Karim, age 44, was appointed to serve as our chief revenue officer in November 2025. From 2002 until November 2025, Mr. Karim was a founder and served as president of MAB Ventures Digital Marketing Agency, LLC until its sale. MAB is a full-service performance marketing agency that specializes in brand strategy, creative execution, end-to-end digital technology, and engagement. Earlier in his career, Mr. Karim managed an automobile dealership, worked as vice-president of business development for PayDivvy, a financial technology startup, which was acquired by HigherOne in 2013, and was a founding member of Fitlab, LLC, an integrated health and wellness venture. Mr. Karim graduated from the University of Southern California and holds a BA in international relations with a double minor in Business Administration and Business Technology.

 

Omar Karim Employment Agreement and Related Contracts

 

On the Effective Date, in connection with Mr. Karim’s employment, we entered into an at-will employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Mr. Karim. Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Karim will receive a base salary of $180,000 per annum. Such base salary will accrue, but not be payable until the earlier of (i) the Company’s board of directors (“Board”) determining that the Company is sufficiently capitalized or (ii) the Company raises an aggregate of $1,000,000 in net proceeds from the sale of its equity securities in one or more transactions (collectively, the “Funding Threshold”). Upon the Funding Threshold, the Company will be required to pay all accrued but unpaid base salary and such base salary will automatically increase to $300,000 per annum.

 

Upon completion of the Funding Threshold, if Mr. Karim’s employment is terminated for any reason other than “Cause”, “Permanent Disability”, or death, each as described in the Employment Agreement (an “Elective Termination”), then the Company will be required to pay Mr. Karim six (6) months of continued base salary in effect at the time of termination.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrant

 

In addition, on the Effective Date, the Company issued to Mr. Karim, a warrant to purchase up to 240,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrant”). The Warrant has a term of five (5) years, and an exercise price per share of $3.08, subject to adjustment for stock splits and dividends. The Warrant vests as follows: (i) 48,000 shares vest on the Effective Date, and (ii) an additional 48,000 shares vest on each yearly anniversary thereafter such that the Warrant is fully vested on the four (4) year anniversary of the Effective Date. The Warrant also vests (i) fully upon a “change of control” of the Company, as defined in the Warrant or (ii) ratably from the most recently completed vesting period until the date of any Elective Termination.

 

Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement

 

In addition, Mr. Karim entered into the Company’s standard confidential information and invention assignment agreement (“Assignment Agreement”) governing the ownership of any inventions and confidential information.

 

There were no arrangements pursuant to which Mr. Karim was appointed as Chief Revenue Officer. There are no family relationships between Mr. Karim and any of the directors or officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

 

The foregoing summary of the Employment Agreement, Warrant and Assignment Agreement are qualified in their entirety by the respective terms of the Employment Agreement, Warrant, and Assignment Agreement, which are attached to this Current Report as Exhibits 10.01, 4.01, and 10.02, respectively.

a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto; and, within 3 Business Days of the date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company, the Company shall have received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within 3 Business Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company.

b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $3.08, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

 

c) Exercise Limitations.

 

i. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other person or entity acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(d) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(d), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(d) shall continue to apply. Any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(c) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

ii. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, until such time as the Company receives approval from its primary Trading Market for the listing of the Warrant Shares.

 

d) Mechanics of Exercise.

 

i. Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise within 15 Business Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise Form, surrender of this Warrant (if required) and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above (the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the date the Exercise Price is received by the Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(e)(v) prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid.

 

ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the transfer agent of the Company to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(e)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then, the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

iv. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

v. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

 

4

 

 

vi. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(f) Vesting. This Warrant shall vest in an amount equal to (i) 48,000 shares on the Initial Exercise Date, (ii) 48,000 shares on the one (1) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, (iii) 48,000 shares on the two (2) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (iv) 48,000 shares on the three (3) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, and (v) 48,000 shares on the four (4) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, so long as Holder continues to services to the Company as a consultant or employee. In the event Holder ceases to provide such services to the Company, any portion of this Warrant which is not yet vested shall immediately terminate and not be exercisable. Notwithstanding the vesting provisions contained in this Section 2(f), in the event that there is a “Change of Control” of the Company, any unvested portion of this Warrant will immediately vest in full. For purposes of this Warrant, “Change of Control” means (i) a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets other than to an Excluded Entity (as defined below), (ii) a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization or business combination transaction of the Company with or into another corporation, limited liability company or other entity other than an Excluded Entity, or (iii) the consummation of a transaction, or series of related transactions, in which any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of all of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction shall not constitute a Change of Control if its primary purpose is to (A) change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, (B) create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who hold the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction, or (C) obtain funding for the Company in a financing that is approved by the Company’s Board. An “Excluded Entity” means a corporation or other entity of which the holders of voting capital stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction are the direct or indirect holders of voting securities representing at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by all of such corporation’s or other entity’s voting securities outstanding immediately after such transaction

 

i. Partial Vesting on Termination Without Cause. In the event that your employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than “Cause”, death or “Permanent Disability”, each as described in your employment agreement dated November 18, 2025, such portion of the shares underlying this Warrant will ratably vest from the most recent vesting event through the date of such termination based on the number of days that have elapsed since from the most recent vesting event through the date of such termination.

  Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

 

a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

b) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

c) Notice to Holder.

 

i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company makes a public disclosure with regard to the Exercise Price adjustment, such disclosure shall be deemed notice to the Holders.

 

6

 

 

ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company makes a public disclosure with regard to the subject matter of this Section 3(d)(ii), such disclosure shall be deemed notice to the Holders.

 

  Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon request by Holder, the Company will issue a new Warrant or Warrants in the names of any assignee(s) of Holder at no charge to Holder or the assignee(s).

 

7

 

 

b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney.

All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

d) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, may be required by the Company to provide an opinion of counsel with regard to such assignment or transfer.

a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(e)(i).

 

b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

e) Governing Law and Venue. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the state of California. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the state of California for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceedings or questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant.

 

f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. If the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

h) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile prior to 5:30 p.m. (California time) on a Trading Day, (b) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via electronic mail prior to 5:30 p.m. (California time) on a Trading Day, (c) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or electronic mail on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (California time) on any Trading Day, the date of the public disclosure if such notice is communicated via public disclosure (d) the second Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (e) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be: (i) if to Holder, at its address of records as contained in the Warrant Register, and (ii) if to Company, at its corporate headquarters.

 

10

 

 

i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

l) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and Holder.

 

m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

Re: EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

Dear Mr. Karim:

 

On behalf of Adapti, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), I am pleased to offer you the position of Chief Revenue Officer of the Company. Your employment by the Company shall be governed by the following terms and conditions (this “Agreement”):

 

1. Duties and Scope of Employment.

 

(a) Position. For the term of your employment under this Agreement (your “Employment”), the Company agrees to employ you in the position of Chief Revenue Officer or in such other position as the Company subsequently may assign to you. You will report to the Company’s Executive Chairman. You will be working remotely. You will perform the duties and have the responsibilities and authority customarily performed and held by an employee in your position or as otherwise may be assigned or delegated to you by the Company’s Executive Chairman, including but not limited to overseeing integration of revenue generation for the Company and its current and future subsidiaries and affiliates.

 

(b) Obligations to the Company. During your Employment, you shall devote your full business efforts and time to the Company. During your Employment, without the prior written approval of the Company’s Executive Chairman, you shall not render services in any capacity to any other person or entity and shall not act as a sole proprietor or partner of any other person or entity or own more than five percent of the stock of any other corporation that competes with the Company, with such determination of a competing company to be made at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements, teach at educational institutions, or manage personal investments without such advance written consent, provided that such activities do not individually or in the aggregate interfere with the performance of your duties under this Agreement. You shall comply with the Company’s policies and rules, as they may be in effect from time to time during your Employment and upon notice of such Policies provided to you.

 

(c) No Conflicting Obligations. You represent and warrant to the Company that you are under no obligations or commitments, whether contractual or otherwise, that are inconsistent with your obligations under this Agreement. In connection with your Employment, you shall not use or disclose any trade secrets or other proprietary information or intellectual property in which you or any other person has any right, title or interest and your Employment will not infringe or violate the rights of any other person. You represent and warrant to the Company that you have returned all property and confidential information belonging to any prior employer.

 

 

 

 

(d) Commencement Date. You shall commence full-time Employment as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than November 18, 2025 (“Start Date”).

 

2. Cash and Incentive Compensation.

 

(a) Salary. The Company shall pay you as compensation for your services an initial base salary at a gross annual rate of $180,000. Your base salary will accrue, but not be payable until the earlier of such time as (i) the Company’s Board of Directors determines that the Company is sufficiently capitalized and (ii) the Company raises an aggregate of $1,000,000 in net proceeds from the sale of its equity securities in one or more transactions (the “Funding Threshold”). Upon the occurrence of the Funding Threshold, you will be paid all accrued but unpaid base salary and your base salary will automatically increase to the gross annual rate of $300,000. Subject to the terms of this Section 2(a), such base salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll procedures. The annual compensation specified in this Section 2(a), together with any modifications in such compensation set forth herein and that the Company may make from time to time, is referred to in this Agreement as “Base Salary.”

 

(b) Common Stock Warrant. On the Start Date, the Company shall grant you a Common Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to 240,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Warrant”). The Warrant’s exercise price per share will be $3.08. The term of the Warrant shall be 5 years. The Warrant will vest as follows: (i) 48,000 shares will vest on the Start Date, (ii) 48,000 shares will vest on the one (1) year anniversary of the Start Date, (iii) 48,000 shares will vest on the two (2) year anniversary of the Start Date, (iv) 48,000 shares will vest on the three (3) year anniversary of the Start Date, and (v) 48,000 shares will vest on the four (4) year anniversary of the Start Date, subject to you continuing to provide services to the Company under this Agreement or any other employment or consulting agreement on each applicable vesting date. A copy of the Warrant is attached hereto as Attachment A.

 

3. Vacation/PTO and Employee Benefits. You will receive unlimited paid vacation / time off, subject to prior written approval by the Executive Chairman. During your Employment, you shall be eligible to participate in the employee benefit plans maintained by the Company and generally available to similarly situated employees of the Company, subject in each case to the generally applicable terms and conditions of the plan in question and to the determinations of any person or committee administering such plan.

 

4. Business Expenses. The Company will reimburse you for your necessary and reasonable business expenses incurred in connection with your duties hereunder upon presentation of an itemized account and appropriate supporting documentation, all in accordance with the Company’s generally applicable policies.

 

 

 

 

5. Termination.

 

(a) Employment at Will. Your Employment shall be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company shall be entitled to terminate your Employment at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you shall be superseded by this Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on the “at-will” nature of your Employment, which may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company.

 

(b) Rights Upon Termination. Except as expressly provided in Section 6, upon the termination of your Employment, you shall only be entitled to the compensation and benefits earned and the reimbursements described in this Agreement for the period preceding the effective date of the termination.

 

6. Termination Benefits.

 

(a) General Release. Any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, subsections (b) and (c) below shall not apply unless and until (i) you have executed (and do not revoke) a full and complete general release of all claims in a form provided by the Company without alteration and (ii) you have returned all Company property.

 

(b) Severance Pay. Subject to the prior completion of the Funding Threshold, if, during the term of this Agreement, the Company terminates your Employment for any reason other than Cause, death or Permanent Disability, then, in addition to the amounts payable in accordance with Section 5(b), the Company shall pay you severance pay at a rate equal to your Base Salary in effect at the time of termination of your Employment for a period of six (6) months following the termination of your Employment (the “Continuation Period”). Such severance pay shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll procedures on the Company’s payroll dates and shall be subject to all applicable withholdings; provided that, if the Company’s stock becomes publicly traded on an established securities market, such severance pay shall be paid in a single lump-sum cash payment on the six (6) month anniversary of the employment termination date to the extent required by Code section 409A.

 

(c) Partial Warrant Acceleration. In the event that your employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause, death or Permanent Disability, then in addition to the amounts payable in accordance with Section 5(b) and 6(b), such portion of the shares underlying Warrant will ratably vest from the most recent vesting event through the date of such termination based on the number of days that have elapsed since such termination.

 

(c) Definition of “Cause.” For all purposes under this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

 

(i) Any breach by you of this Agreement, the Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement between you and the Company, or any other written agreement between you and the Company;

 

 

 

 

(ii) Any failure by you to comply with the Company’s written policies or rules, as they may be in effect from time to time during your Employment pursuant to notice of such policies provided to you;

 

(iii) Your repeated failure to follow reasonable and lawful instructions from the Company or the Executive Chairman of the Company and your failure to cure such condition after receiving 10 days advance written notice;

 

(iv) Commission, conviction of, or a plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any State by you;

 

(v) Your misappropriation of funds or property of the Company;

 

(vi) Neglect of your duties; or

 

(vii) Any gross or willful misconduct by you.

 

(d) Definition of “Permanent Disability.” For all purposes under this Agreement, “Permanent Disability” shall mean your inability to perform the essential functions of your position with or without reasonable accommodation for a period of 120 consecutive days because of your physical or mental impairment.

 

7. Non-Solicitation. During the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the second anniversary of the date when your Employment terminated for any reason, you shall not directly or indirectly, personally or through others, solicit or attempt to solicit (on your own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity) either (i) any employee or any consultant of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or (ii) the business of any customer of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates.

 

8. Pre-Employment Conditions.

 

(a) Confidentiality Agreement. Your acceptance of this offer and commencement of employment with the Company is contingent upon the execution, and delivery to an officer of the Company, of the Company’s Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Attachment B, for your review and execution (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), prior to or on your Start Date.

 

(b) Right to Work. For purposes of federal immigration law, you will be required to provide to the Company documentary evidence of your identity and eligibility for employment in the United States. Such documentation must be provided to us within three (3) business days of your Start Date, or our employment relationship with you may be terminated.

 

 

 

 

9. Successors.

 

(a) Company’s Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successor (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business or assets that becomes bound by this Agreement.

 

(b) Your Successors. This Agreement and all of your rights hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, your personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.

 

10. Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

(a) Notice. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In your case, mailed notices shall be addressed to you at the home address that you most recently communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, mailed notices shall be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices shall be directed to the attention of its Secretary.

 

(b) Modifications and Waivers. No provision of this Agreement shall be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by you and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than you). No waiver by either party of any breach of, or of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement by the other party shall be considered a waiver of any other condition or provision or of the same condition or provision at another time.

 

(c) Whole Agreement. No other agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express or implied) which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement have been made or entered into by either party with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

(d) Withholding Taxes. All payments made under this Agreement shall be subject to reduction to reflect taxes or other charges required to be withheld by law.

 

(e) Choice of Law and Severability. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to provisions governing the choice of law. If any provision of this Agreement becomes or is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any applicable jurisdiction by reason of the scope, extent or duration of its coverage, then such provision shall be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to be valid and enforceable or, if such provision cannot be so amended without materially altering the intention of the parties, then such provision shall be stricken and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement is rendered illegal by any present or future statute, law, ordinance or regulation (collectively, the “Law”) then that provision shall be curtailed or limited only to the minimum extent necessary to bring the provision into compliance with the Law. All the other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without impairment or limitation.

 

(f) No Assignment. This Agreement and all of your rights and obligations hereunder are personal to you and may not be transferred or assigned by you at any time. The Company may assign its rights under this Agreement to any entity that assumes the Company’s obligations hereunder in connection with any sale or transfer of all or a substantial portion of the Company’s assets to such entity.

 

(g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

INVENTION ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT

 

Employee Name:__________________

 

Effective Date: November ________________________

 

As a condition of my employment (or my employment being continued) with Adapti, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company” and, collectively with any and all of its current or future subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns, the “Company Group”), and in consideration of my employment with the Company and my receipt of the compensation now and hereafter paid to me pursuant to such employment , the receipt of Confidential Information (as defined below) while associated with the Company, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company (on behalf of itself and the Company Group) and, I hereby agree to the following:

 

1. Past and Future Activities. This Employee Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreement (this “Agreement”) applies to my employment relationship with the Company. For purposes of clarity, if (a) I performed work, activities, or services, or otherwise made efforts, on behalf of the Company Group or for its benefit, or in anticipation of my involvement with the Company Group (whether before or after inception of the Company) that would have been within the scope of my employment relationship if performed during the term of this Agreement or (b) within one (1) year after my employment relationship with the Company ends I become reemployed by any member of the Company Group, then, unless the Company and I otherwise agree in writing, this Agreement shall apply to all such past and future work, activities, services, and efforts. Without limiting the foregoing, the “Relationship” refers to my employment relationship with the Company, whether commenced before, on, or after the Effective Date.

 

2. Confidentiality.

 

(a) Confidential Information Definition. “Confidential Information” means any and all information and physical manifestations thereof not generally known or available outside the Company Group and information and physical manifestations thereof entrusted to the Company Group in confidence by third parties, whether or not such information is patentable, copyrightable or otherwise legally protectable, and without regard to whether such information and physical manifestations thereof are marked or otherwise designated as “confidential”, “proprietary”, or something similar. Confidential Information includes, without limitation: (i) Company IP (as defined below); (ii) IP owned or licensed by the Company Group prior to or outside of this Agreement; (iii) Company Data (as defined below) that I receive, access or use in connection with the Relationship; (iv) access credentials, such as username, password, security key, security token, or PIN; (v) lists of, or information relating to, employees and consultants of the Company Group (including, but not limited to, the names, contact information, jobs, compensation, and expertise of such employees and consultants); and (vi) lists of, agreements with, or information relating to, suppliers and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company Group on whom I called or with whom I became acquainted during the Relationship) and any other third parties, price lists, pricing methodologies, cost data, market share data, marketing plans, licenses, contract information, business plans, financial forecasts, historical financial data, budgets or other business information disclosed to me by the Company Group either directly or indirectly, whether in writing, electronically, orally, or by observation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information that is generally available to and known by the public through no wrongful act of mine or of others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved.

 

 
 

 

(b) Protection of Information. I understand that during the Relationship, the Company intends to provide me with certain information, including Confidential Information, without which I would not be able to perform my duties to or for the Company. At all times during the Relationship and thereafter, I shall hold any and all Confidential Information that I obtain, access, or create during the Relationship in strictest confidence, shall not use such Confidential Information except for the Company’s benefit and to the extent necessary to perform my obligations to the Company in connection with the Relationship, and shall not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party without written authorization from the Company in each instance. I shall comply with the foregoing obligations whether or not during working hours, until the information at issue is no longer Confidential Information as described herein. I will not make copies of any Confidential Information (including any documents, records, files, media, or other resources containing any Confidential Information) except as authorized by the Company or in the ordinary course of my obligations to the Company in connection with the Relationship. I shall not use Confidential Information in violation of any applicable laws.

 

(c) Third Party Information. During the Relationship and thereafter, I will not improperly use or disclose to the Company Group any confidential, proprietary or secret information of my former employer(s) or any other person, and I will not bring any such information onto the Company Group’s property or place of business or upload or transfer any such information to the Company Group’s property, devices, or cloud services accounts.

 

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

 

(e) Permitted Disclosures. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information as may be required by applicable law or regulation, or pursuant to the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by such law, regulation, or order. To the extent legally permissible, I shall promptly provide reasonable advance written notice of any such order to an authorized officer of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

 

(i) Nothing in this Agreement prohibits or restricts me (or my attorney) from communicating with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or any other applicable regulatory authority regarding a possible securities law violation.

 

-2-
 

 

(ii) Nothing in this Agreement prohibits or restricts me from exercising protected rights, including without limitation those rights granted under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act, or otherwise disclosing information as permitted by applicable law, regulation, or order.

 

(iii) Nothing in this Agreement prevents me from discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that I have reason to believe is unlawful.

 

(iv) The U.S. Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (“DTSA”) provides that an individual shall 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 (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. In addition, DTSA provides that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual (x) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

 

3. IP Matters.

 

(a) IP Definitions.

I shall keep and maintain adequate and current written records of all IP made or conceived by me (solely or jointly with others) during the Relationship, which such records shall be considered Company IP. The records may be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, flow charts, electronic data or recordings, or any other format. I will make the records available to the Company Group on request. I will not remove such records from the Company Group’s place of business or systems except as expressly permitted by the Company’s policy which may, from time to time, be revised at the Company’s sole election. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Relationship and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, I will promptly make full written disclosure to the Company of all IP that I solely or jointly author, discover, develop, conceive, or reduce to practice during the period of, or otherwise in connection with, the Relationship for, among other things, the Company to determine which IP is Company IP and which is Excluded IP.

I further hereby waive and irrevocably quitclaim to the Company or its designee any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that I now have or may hereafter have for infringement of any Company IP. If I have any rights to Company IP that cannot be assigned to the Company, I hereby grant to the Company a perpetual, irrevocable, fully paid-up, royalty-free, worldwide, fully transferable and sublicensable (through multiple tiers), exclusive right and license to practice and exploit such rights and to make, have made, copy, modify, prepare derivative works of, use, sell, import, and otherwise distribute and commercialize any Company products or services that may practice such rights. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent I have any Moral Rights in Company IP that cannot be assigned or exclusively licensed under applicable law, I hereby waive and agree not to enforce any such Moral Rights, including without limitation any limitation on subsequent modification, to the extent permitted under applicable law.

During and after the Relationship, I agree to reasonably cooperate with the Company, at the Company’s expense and within the Company’s timeframe, to: (i) apply for, obtain, perfect, and transfer to the Company all Company IP; and (ii) maintain, protect, and enforce the same, including without limitation by participating in litigation and regulatory proceedings, as well as executing and delivering to the Company any and all applications, oaths, declarations, affidavits, waivers, assignments, and other documents and instruments requested by the Company.

The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall not be affected by my subsequent incapacity.

 

(e) Publicity. I hereby consent to any and all uses and displays by the Company Group and its agents of my name, voice, likeness, image, appearance, and biographical information in any media, at any time during or after the Relationship, for all legitimate business purposes of the Company Group. Notwithstanding, the Company will get your written approval for the use of your likeness for any non-routine disclosures (such routine disclosures being SEC filings, Company website, marketing materials, and Company decks / presentations), which such approval will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. I hereby forever release the Company Group and its directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, losses, costs, expenses, and liabilities of any kind, arising under any legal or equitable theory whatsoever, relating to any such permitted use of any of the foregoing.

5. Company Property.

 

(a) Company Equipment; Returning Company Documents. I acknowledge that I have no expectation of privacy with respect to the Company Group’s telecommunications, networking or information processing systems (including, without limitation, files, email messages, and voice messages) and that my activity and any files or messages on or using any of those systems may be monitored or reviewed at any time without notice. I further acknowledge that any property situated on the Company Group’s premises or systems and owned by the Company Group, including storage media, filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject to inspection by the Company Group’s personnel at any time with or without notice. At the time of termination of the Relationship, I will deliver to the Company (and will not keep in my possession, recreate or deliver to anyone else) any and all devices, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, laboratory notebooks, materials, flow charts, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any of the aforementioned items developed by me pursuant to the Relationship or otherwise belonging to the Company Group.

 

(b) Company Data. I acknowledge that in the course of the Relationship I may collect, receive, access, or use Personal Information and/or other Confidential Information relating to the Company Group’s customers, potential customers, end-users, suppliers, potential suppliers, employees, independent contractors, and other personnel, or others (collectively, “Company Data”), and that such Company Data may be subject to protection by federal, state or international privacy laws or contractual restrictions on use. I agree to treat Company Data as confidential and in compliance with all applicable laws, and I shall not collect, use, retain or disclose Company Data for any purpose other than as necessary for the purpose of performing legitimate business activities within the scope of the Relationship. I acknowledge that failure to adhere to the policies, procedures, contractual restrictions and instructions that the Company Group has implemented to protect the privacy and security of Company Data is a violation of the terms of my employment and may result in termination.

 

6. Non-Solicit.

 

(a) Generally. As described above, I acknowledge that the Company Group’s Confidential Information includes information relating to the Company Group’s customers, potential customers, end-users, suppliers, potential suppliers, employees, independent contractors, and other personnel, and others, and I will not use or disclose such Confidential Information except as authorized by the Company in advance in writing. I further agree as follows:

 

(i) Employees and Independent Contractors. During the Relationship, and for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the termination of the Relationship for any reason (the “Restriction Period”), whether with or without cause, I shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit any of the Company Group’s employees or independent contractors to terminate their relationship with the Company Group, either for myself or for any other person or entity.

 

-7-
 

 

(ii) Other Parties. During the Relationship, I will not influence any of the Company Group’s actual or potential customers from purchasing the Company Group’s products or services or solicit or influence or attempt to influence any actual or potential customer, either directly or indirectly, to direct any purchase of products and/or services to any person, firm, corporation, institution or other entity in competition with the business of the Company Group.

 

(b) Notice to Third Parties. During the Restriction Period, I shall inform any entity or person with whom I may seek to enter into a business relationship (whether as an owner, employee, independent contractor or otherwise) of my contractual obligations under this Agreement. I acknowledge that the Company Group may, with or without prior notice to me and whether during or after the Relationship, notify third parties of my agreements and obligations under this Agreement. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, upon written request by the Company Group, I will respond to the Company Group in writing regarding the status of my employment or proposed employment with any party during the Restriction Period.

 

7. Representations and Covenants.

 

(a) Facilitation of Agreement. I shall execute promptly, both during and after the end of the Relationship, any proper oath, and to verify any proper document, required to carry out the terms of this Agreement, upon the Company’s written request to do so.

 

(b) No Conflicts. I represent and warrant that my performance of my duties for the Company and all the terms of this Agreement does not and will not breach any agreement I have entered into, or will enter into, with any third party (including without limitation any former employer), including without limitation any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information or materials acquired by me in confidence or in trust prior to or during the Relationship. I will not induce the Company Group to use any inventions, confidential or non-public proprietary information, or material belonging to any previous client, employer or any other party. I represent and warrant that I have listed on Exhibit A 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 person or entity, that may restrict my ability to accept employment with the Company or my ability to recruit or engage customers or service providers on behalf of the Company Group, or otherwise relate to or restrict my ability to perform my duties for the Company or any obligation I may have to the Company Group. I shall not enter into any written or oral agreement that conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement without the Company’s prior written consent.

 

-8-
 

 

(c) Voluntary Execution. I certify and acknowledge that I have carefully read all of the provisions of this Agreement, that I understand and have voluntarily accepted such provisions, and that I will fully and faithfully comply with such provisions.

 

8. Acknowledgment. I acknowledge that the duties to be performed by me for the Company are of a special and unique character, that I will obtain knowledge and skill relevant to the Company’s industry, methods of doing business, and marketing strategies by virtue of my employment, and I agree that the terms of this Agreement are reasonable under such circumstances. I further acknowledge that the amount of my compensation reflects, in part, my obligations and the Company’s rights under this Agreement and I have no expectation of any additional compensation, royalties, or other payment of any kind in connection with my performance of this Agreement, that I will not be subject to undue hardship by reason of my full compliance with this Agreement or the Company’s enforcement thereof, and that this Agreement in itself is not a contract of employment for any particular time period and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Company or me to continue an employment relationship for any particular time period.

 

9. Termination Certification. In the event of the termination of the Relationship, I shall sign and deliver the “Termination Certification” attached hereto as Exhibit C; however, my failure to sign and deliver the Termination Certification shall in no way diminish my continuing obligations under this Agreement.

 

10. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement, and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

 

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and me relating to its subject matter and merges and supersedes all prior discussions between us. No amendment to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing signed by both parties to this Agreement. The Company shall not be deemed hereby to have waived any rights or remedies it may have in law or equity, nor to have given any authorizations or waived any of its rights under this Agreement, unless, and only to the extent, it does so by a specific writing signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, it being understood that, even if I am an officer of the Company, I will not have authority to give any such authorizations or waivers for the Company under this Agreement without specific approval by the Board of Directors of the Company. Any subsequent change or changes in my duties, obligations, rights or compensation will not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement.

 

(c) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives, and my successors and assigns, and will be for the benefit of the Company, its successors, and its assigns.

 

(d) Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient when delivered personally or by overnight courier or sent by email, or forty-eight (48) hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail as certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, addressed to the party to be notified at such party’s address as set forth on the signature page, as subsequently modified by written notice, or if no address is specified on the signature page, at the most recent address set forth in the Company’s books and records.

 

-9-
 

 

(e) Severability. If one or more of the provisions in this Agreement are deemed void or unenforceable to any extent in any context, such provisions shall nevertheless be enforced to the fullest extent allowed by law in that and other contexts, and the validity and force of the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected. The Company and I have attempted to limit my right to use, maintain and disclose the Company Group’s Confidential Information, and to limit my right to solicit employees and customers only to the extent necessary to protect the Company Group from unfair competition. Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that the scope of the covenants contained in Section 6 exceeds the maximum restrictiveness such court deems reasonable and enforceable, the parties intend that the court should reform, modify and enforce the provision to such narrower scope as it determines to be reasonable and enforceable under the circumstances existing at that time.

 

(f) Remedies. I acknowledge that violation of this Agreement by me may cause the Company irreparable harm, and therefore I agree that the Company will be entitled to seek extraordinary relief in court, including, but not limited to, temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions without the necessity of posting a bond or other security (or, where such a bond or security is required, that a $1,000 bond will be adequate), in addition to and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have for a breach of this Agreement.

 

(g) Advice of Counsel. I acknowledge THAT, IN EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT, I Have HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK THE ADVICE OF INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, AND I Have read and understood ALL OF THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AGAINST ANY PARTY BY REASON OF THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION HEREOF.

 

(h) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Execution via an electronic signature system, facsimile copy or scanned image will have the same force and effect as execution of an original, and an electronic signature, facsimile or scanned image signature will be deemed an original and valid signature.

(a) Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either:

 

(1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the employer; or

 

(2) Result from any work performed by the employee for the employer.

 

(b) To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being required to be assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.

 

Chapter 765, Section 1060/2 of the Illinois Compiled Statutes is as follows:

 

(1) A provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign or offer to assign any of the employee’s rights in an invention to the employer does not apply to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information of the employer was used and which was developed entirely on the employee’s own time, unless (a) the invention relates (i) to the business of the employer, or (ii) to the employer’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (b) the invention results from any work performed by the employee for the employer. Any provision which purports to apply to such an invention is to that extent against the public policy of this State and is to that extent void and unenforceable. The employee shall bear the burden of proof in establishing that his invention qualifies under this subsection.

 

(2) An employer shall not require a provision made void and unenforceable by subsection (1) of this Section as a condition of employment or continuing employment.
