Consulting Agreement and this Agreement (the “Services”), Executive shall have such duties, responsibilities and authority as are normally associated with Executive’s position, together with such additional duties, commensurate with
Executive’s position, as may be assigned to Executive from time to time by the CEO. Executive shall perform the Services faithfully and to the best of Executive’s ability, and in compliance with all of the Company’s policies, as such policies
may be amended from time to time in the sole discretion of the Company. Executive shall devote all of Executive’s business time and best efforts to the performance of Executive’s Services for the Company and shall not engage in any other
business, profession or occupation for compensation that is undisclosed to the Company or conflicts with Executive’s duties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from (i) participating in
trade associations or industry organizations which are related to the business of the Company or engaging in activities for charitable, civic or political organizations (including serving as a member of the board of such organization),
(ii) engaging in personal investment activities for Executive and Executive’s family that do not give rise to any conflicts of interest with the Company or its “Subsidiaries” (as defined below) or affiliates, or (iii) subject to the prior
approval of the Board, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, serving as a member of the board of directors of any for-profit entity that does not give rise to any conflict of interests with the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates, in
each case, so long as the activities in (i), (ii), and (iii) above do not interfere, individually or in the aggregate, with the performance of Executive’s Services hereunder and do not materially breach Section 5 hereof.

Agreement and this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 4 of this Agreement.
3. COMPENSATION. During the term of this Agreement, Executive, through
1520955 B.C. LTD., shall be entitled to the compensation set forth in the Consulting Agreement and shall not receive any other compensation under this Agreement, except as set forth in Section 4.

(f) Resignation as Officer or Director. Upon termination of Executive’s Services to the Company for any reason, unless requested
otherwise by the Company, Executive shall resign each position (if any) that Executive then holds as an officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Executive’s execution of this Agreement shall be deemed the grant by
Executive to the officers of the Company of a limited power of attorney to sign in Executive’s name and on Executive’s behalf any such documentation as may be required to be executed solely for the limited purposes of effectuating such
resignations.
(g) Payment Directions. If mutually agreed between the Company and Executive, any cash severance payments payable under this Section

5. EXECUTIVE COVENANTS. Executive understands the Company has developed, and is continuing to
develop, substantial relationships with actual and prospective officers, directors, employees, consultants, agents, customers, referral sources, vendors, suppliers, investors and equity and financing sources, goodwill, and confidential and
proprietary business information and trade secrets, which the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates have the right to protect in order to safeguard their legitimate business interests. Any misappropriation of such relationships or
goodwill, or any improper disclosure or use of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ Confidential Information would be highly detrimental to their business interests in that serious and substantial loss of business and pecuniary
damages would result therefrom. Executive also acknowledges and recognizes that an important purpose of this Agreement is to align the interests of Executive with those of the Company’s stockholders and to ensure that Executive does not engage
in activity detrimental to the interests of the Company’s stockholders if Executive is going to be allowed the opportunity to participate in the financial rewards that result from this Agreement. In addition, Executive acknowledges that an
ancillary purpose consistent with protecting the interests of the stockholders arises with respect to Executive because during the period of Executive’s provision of the Services to the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate, Executive shall have
access to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ Confidential Information and will meet and develop such relationships and goodwill. Executive accordingly agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section 5 as a condition of the
provision of the Services to the Company and the compensation and benefits provided for in the Consulting Agreement and this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees not to contest or dispute the Company’s position that the prohibition of
unfair competition provided for in this Section 5 is inextricably connected to and part of the Company’s governance of its internal affairs and relates directly to the interests of the Company’s stockholders. Nothing contained in this Section 5
shall limit any common law, statutory or provincial obligation that Executive may have to the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate. For purposes of this Section 5, the “Company Group” refers to the Company and any incorporated or
unincorporated parent entity or Subsidiary, including any entity which engages Executive for the Services as a result of any reorganization or restructuring of the Company for any reason. The Company shall be entitled, in connection with its tax
planning or other reasons, to terminate the Services (which termination shall not be considered a termination for any purposes of this Agreement or otherwise) in connection with an invitation from a parent or Subsidiary of the Company to engage
Executive for the Services with such parent or Subsidiary in which case the terms and conditions hereof shall apply to Executive’s consulting relationship with such entity mutatis mutandis.
7
(a) Avoidance of Competition and Other Detrimental Acts During the Services. Executive agrees that during the period of Executive’s
provision of the Services to the Company or other member of the Company Group, Executive will comply with each of the following restrictions and obligations:
(i) Executive will comply at all times with Executive’s duty of loyalty to the
Company Group as an employee or agent of the Company placed in a position of special trust and confidence. This duty shall be understood to include, but not be limited to, (1) an obligation not to engage or participate in the business of a
Competing Business (as defined below in Section 5(b)), or become employed with a Competing Business as an employee, owner, member, partner, consultant, director, or otherwise, without the express written consent of the Company or applicable
member of the Company Group, provided that nothing herein prohibits the passive ownership of up to five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding shares of any corporation or entity publicly traded on a national securities exchange, so long as
Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation or entity, (2) an obligation not to interfere with or otherwise knowingly cause harm to the Company Group’s ongoing or prospective business
relationship with a Company Group employee, consultant, or individual providing services as an independent contractor, or a supplier, distributor, vendor, customer, or other person or entity that does business with the Company Group or that the
Company Group has a reasonable expectation of doing business with, and (3) an obligation to inform the Company Group of business opportunities that fall within the Company Group’s line of business and not pursue them for personal gain separate
from the Company Group without the Company’s or applicable member of the Company Group’s express written consent in advance, or otherwise participate in any conduct or relationship that creates a conflict of interest in violation of Company Group
policies; and
(ii) Executive will not knowingly participate in or pursue activities that harm the
value of the Company Group’s Intellectual Property and will honor all agreements with the Company Group concerning the ownership and protection of Intellectual Property.
(b) Non-competition. Executive agrees that during the period of Executive’s provision of the Services to
the Company or other member of the Company Group and for the one (1) year period immediately following the termination of the Services for any reason or for no reason (the “Restricted Period”), Executive shall not directly or indirectly,
serve in an executive or management level role with, or provide business, strategic, sales, financial, operational or technical advice or services, to any business that is a Competing Business. For purposes of this Section 5, “Competing
Business” means a business (which shall include any sole proprietorship, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company, corporation or other for-profit or not-for-profit business organization)
engaged in the business of mining, milling, refining and selling silver (the “Business”) in the Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(b) shall not apply to the performance of services for any enterprise to the extent
such services are restricted solely to one or more distinct portions of the operations and businesses of such entity and such distinct portions are not engaged in the Business, and Executive does not have any discussions with, or participate
in, the governance, strategy, development, management or operations of such business segments that engage in the Business.
8
(c) Solicitation of Employees, Customers, Referral Sources, Vendors, Etc. Executive agrees that during the Restricted Period,
Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, jointly or individually, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of or in assistance to any individual, person or entity:
(i) (x) solicit, or attempt to solicit, any “Covered Employee” (as defined below)
for employment or service with any entity other than those entities comprising the Company Group; or (y) recruit or facilitate the hire, or attempt to recruit or facilitate the hire, of any Covered Employee or otherwise induce or encourage any
Covered Employee to terminate or sever his, her, or its employment or other relationship with the Company Group or any of its successors or assigns; or
(ii) (x) solicit business from any “Covered Person” (as defined below) in
connection with, on behalf of or for the benefit of a Competing Business; or (y) otherwise induce or encourage any Covered Person to terminate, change, or reduce his, her, or its relationship with the Company Group or any of its successors or
assigns for any reason.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a general advertisement or solicitation for employment that is not targeted and that does not have the effect of being targeted to any Covered Employee or Covered Person shall not, by
itself, be deemed to be a violation of the restrictions on solicitation contained in this Section 5(c). For purposes of this Section 5(c), “Covered Employee” shall mean any officer, director, employee, or agent
who is employed by the Company Group or any of its successors or assigns or was so employed or engaged at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination of Executive’s Services and with whom Executive had contact or about whom
Executive learned Confidential Information; provided, however, that any such individual who has ceased to be employed by or engaged with the Company Group for a period of at least six (6) months shall no longer be deemed a Covered
Employee. “Covered Person” shall mean any: (i) customers of the Company Group or any of its successors or assigns with whom or which Executive had actual contact, or whose accounts Executive managed or worked on, or for whom or which
Executive used or developed Confidential Information; and (ii) referral sources, vendors, suppliers, investors, equity or financing sources, or consultants of the Company Group or any of its successors or assigns.
(d) Non-Disparagement. Executive agrees that during the period of
Executive’s provision of the Services to the Company or other member of the Company Group, and any time thereafter, Executive will not make or issue, or procure any third-party to make or issue, any written or oral statement or press release to
any third party (including, but not limited to, any current or former officer, director, manager, member, employee or other service provider of the Company Group) that is disparaging of, or defamatory, libelous or slanderous of the Company
Group. The obligations of Executive under this Section 5(d) shall not apply to “Protected Conduct” (as defined below in Section 5(e)(vi)(B)).
9
(e) Confidentiality.
(i) All books of account, records, systems, correspondence, documents, memoranda, manuals, email, electronic
or magnetic recordings or data and any and all other data, or compilations of such data or information, in whatever form and any copies thereof, concerning or containing any reference to the works and business of the Company Group shall belong to
the Company or applicable member of the Company Group and shall be given up to the Company or applicable member of the Company Group whenever the Company or applicable member of the Company Group requires Executive to do so, other than documents
pertaining to Executive’s individual compensation (such as pay stubs and benefit plan booklets). Subject to Section 5(e)(vi), Executive agrees that Executive shall not at any time during the term of Executive’s provision of the Services to the
Company or other member of the Company Group, or at any time thereafter, without the Board’s prior written consent, disclose to any individual, person or entity any Confidential Information, nor will Executive use, store, transmit, upload, copy,
or download any Confidential Information, except as necessary in the performance of the Services for the Company or other member of the Company Group.
(ii) Executive hereby confirms that all Confidential Information constitutes the Company’s or applicable member
of the Company Group’s exclusive property, and that all of the restrictions on Executive’s activities contained in this Agreement and such other nondisclosure policies of the Company Group are required for the Company Group’s reasonable
protection. Confidential Information shall not include any information that is (A) publicly available or has otherwise been disclosed to the public not in violation of this Agreement, (B) already known by Executive without any obligation of
confidentiality to any member of the Company Group or a third party, (C) independently developed by Executive without any reference to, or use of, Confidential Information, or (D) subsequently disclosed to Executive by a third party who is
legally entitled to disclose Confidential Information and such disclosure does not violate any obligation of confidentiality to any member of the Company Group. This confidentiality provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
shall not be limited by any other confidentiality agreements entered into with any member of the Company Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions provided for in this Section 5(e) shall not be construed to prohibit the use of
general knowledge and experience customarily relied upon in Executive’s trade or profession that is not specific to the particular business matters of the Company Group (such as its business transactions, customers, clients, or employees).
(iii) Executive agrees, promptly upon the request of the Company or applicable
member of the Company Group, and in any event promptly upon the termination of Executive’s Services to the Company or other member of the Company Group, at the Company’s or applicable member of the Company Group’s request, to return to the
Company or applicable member of the Company Group or, at the direction of the Company or applicable member of the Company Group, destroy, and certify as to such destruction, all of the Company’s or applicable member of the Company Group’s
material and Confidential Information and Inventions (as defined below in Section 5(e)(iv)) (including, but not limited to, writings, correspondence, e-mails, notes, drafts, records, invoices, technical and business policies and computer
programs, files and disks) and reproductions thereof in Executive’s possession or control, including, without limitation, any copies of such material that may reside on any cloud account or offline storage device under Executive’s control, any
computer Executive owns or otherwise controls or on any computer server used to provide an e-mail mail box to which Executive has access pursuant to any Internet or electronic mail service to which Executive subscribes.

relative to the disclosure to the Company or applicable member of the Company Group of such Inventions anticipated in this Section 5(e) shall continue beyond the termination of Executive’s Services and Executive shall, at the Company’s or
applicable member of the Company Group’s expense, give the Company or applicable member of the Company Group all assistance it reasonably requires to perfect, protect and use its right to the Inventions. “Intellectual Property” means, in
any jurisdiction throughout the world, any and all (A) copyrightable works of authorship, (B) trademarks, service marks, logos and domain names, and all goodwill associated therewith, (C) trade secrets, (D) inventions (whether patentable or
unpatentable and whether or not reduced to practice), all improvements thereto, and all patents, patent applications and patent disclosures, together with all provisionals, reissuances, continuations, continuations-in-part, divisions, revisions,

member of the Company Group and which relate to the business of the Company Group (“Prior Inventions”) and which are not assigned to a member of the Company Group by this Agreement. If there is no such Exhibit A attached or if
there is nothing listed on it, Executive represents that there are no such Prior Inventions. Executive agrees not to incorporate Prior Inventions into any product or system or other part of the Company Group’s operations, and to the extent any
such Prior Invention becomes so incorporated, Executive hereby grants to the Company a non-exclusive, fully paid-up, irrevocable, transferable, worldwide license to use and have used (including in manufacture, development, research, sale, offer
for sale, importation, export and distribution of) such Prior Invention in any product or system or other aspect of the Company Group’s operations into which such Prior Invention becomes incorporated during the time of Executive’s provision of
Services and for any and all improvements of such product, system or other operation.

(vi) Permitted Disclosures.
A. DTSA Notice: Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b), Executive shall not be
held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret of the Company Group that (1) is made (A) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or
indirectly, or to Executive’s attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (2) is made in a complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If
Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by a member of the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate for reporting 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, provided Executive (y) files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and (z) 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 such section.
B. Protected Conduct: Nothing in this Agreement (including Sections 5(d)
or 5(e)) or any other agreement Executive may have with any member of the Company Group shall prohibit or restrict Executive from (1) voluntarily communicating with an attorney retained by Executive; (2) voluntarily communicating with any law
enforcement, government agency, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any other state or local commission on human rights, or any self-regulatory organization regarding
possible violations of law, in each case without advance notice to the Company or applicable Subsidiary or affiliate, or otherwise initiating, testifying, assisting, complying with a subpoena from, or participating in any manner with an
investigation conducted by such government agency; (3) recovering a SEC whistleblower award as provided under Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (4) disclosing any information (including confidential information) to a court or
other administrative or legislative body in response to a subpoena, court order or written request (with advance notice to the Company or applicable member of the Company Group prior to any such disclosure to the extent legally permitted);
(5) filing or disclosing any facts necessary to receive any public benefits to which Executive is entitled; or (6) disclosing the underlying facts or circumstances relating to claims of discrimination, in violation of laws prohibiting
discrimination, against the Company or any member of the Company Group (collectively referred to as “Protected Conduct”). Further, nothing requires notice to or approval from the Company or applicable member of the Company Group before
engaging in such Protected Conduct.
(i) Executive acknowledges that compliance with all provisions, covenants and agreements set forth in this
Agreement, and the duration, terms and geographical area thereof, are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company Group.
(ii) Executive acknowledges that a breach of Executive’s obligations under this Section 5 may result in
irreparable and continuing damage to the Company Group for which there is no adequate remedy at law.
(iii) Executive acknowledges that Executive’s education, experience and/or abilities are such that the
enforcement of the restrictive covenants in this Agreement will not prevent Executive from earning a living and will not cause any undue hardship upon Executive. Further, Executive acknowledges that the compensation and benefits Executive
receives under this Agreement is mutually agreed upon consideration that is adequate and sufficient to make the covenants in Section 5 immediately binding and enforceable against them.
12
(iv) In the event of the violation by Executive of any of the covenants contained in this Section 5 the terms
of each such covenant so violated shall be automatically extended from the date on which Executive permanently ceases such violation for a period equal to the period in which Executive was in breach of the covenant or for a period of twelve (12)
months from the date of the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of an order or judgment enforcing such covenant(s), whichever period is later; provided, however, this extension of time shall be capped, except as to
violations of Section 5(d) hereof, so that the extension of time does not exceed two (2) years from the date Executive’s Services ended, and if this extension would make the restriction unenforceable under applicable law it will not be applied.
(v) Each of the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement is independent
of any other contractual obligations of this Agreement or otherwise owed by Executive to the Company and/or any member of the Company Group. Further, should Executive be subject to an agreement with any member of the Company Group containing
confidentiality, non-solicitation, and/or non-competition provisions, the restrictive covenants in this Agreement shall supplement (rather than supersede) the covenants in such other agreements (“Other Covenants”), and the Other Covenants
shall remain in full force and effect. The existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against the Company and/or any other member of the Company Group, whether based on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not create a defense to the
enforcement by the Company and/or the applicable member of the Company Group of any restrictive covenant contained in this Agreement.
(i) It is intended that, in view of the nature of the Company Group’s business,
the restrictions contained in this Section 5 are considered reasonable and necessary to protect the Company Group’s legitimate business interests and that any violation of these restrictions would result in irreparable injury to the Company
Group. In the event of a material breach (a “Covenant Breach”) or threatened Covenant Breach by Executive of any provision contained this Section 5, Executive agrees that the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group may
(i) cease or withhold payment to Executive of any severance payments described in Section 4, for which Executive otherwise qualifies under such Section 4, and (ii) seek to obtain remedies in equity, including, without limitation, specific
performance, injunctive relief, a temporary restraining order, and/or a permanent injunction in any court of competent jurisdiction in aid of arbitration, to prevent or otherwise restrain a breach of this Agreement, without the necessity of
proving damages, posting a bond or other security. The existence of any claim or cause of action of Executive against the Company or any other member of the Company Group, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a
defense to the enforcement by the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group of said covenants. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group from pursuing any
other legal or equitable remedies available to it or them for any breach or threatened breach of these provisions, including, without limitation, recoupment and other remedies specified in the Agreement.
13
(ii) In the event of a dispute regarding, arising out of, or in connection with the breach, enforcement or
interpretation of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any action seeking injunctive relief, the prevailing party shall recover from the other party all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by such prevailing party in
connection therewith.
(h) Company Inventions. Executive acknowledges and agrees that, as between
Executive and the Company, all Works (as defined below) conceived, created, or reduced to practice by Executive, alone or jointly with others, during Executive’s provision of the Services shall to the fullest extent permissible by law be solely
and exclusively owned by the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group. For clarity, all Works that are protectable by copyright shall be deemed a “work made for hire” under the U.S. Copyright Act, as amended, and the law of any
other country adhering to the “works made for hire” or similar notion or doctrine, and all right, title and interest there in will vest in the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group from the moment of creation or conception
forward for all purposes without the need for any further action or agreement by Executive or the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group. If any such Works or portions thereof shall not be legally qualified as a work made for
hire in the United States, or shall subsequently be held to not be a work made for hire by operation of law or do not already vest in the Company or other applicable member of the Company Group by virtue of its engagement of Executive as a
consultant, Executive hereby, as of the date such Work was created, irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys to the Company all of Executive’s right, title and interest throughout the world, in and to such Works. In addition to the foregoing
assignment of Works to Company, Executive hereby, as of the date such Work was created, irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys to the Company any and all moral rights and rights of attribution that Executive may have in or with respect to
such Works and forever waives and agrees never to assert any and all moral rights and rights of attributions Executive may have with respect to any Works, even after termination of Executive’s Services. If Executive has any rights to any Works
that cannot be assigned or waived, Executive hereby, as of the date such Work was created, grants to Company an irrevocable, perpetual, fully paid-up, royalty-free, exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide and unlimited license with
respect to any such rights. Executive will not engage in any unauthorized publication or use of such Works, nor will Executive use same to compete with or otherwise cause damage to the business interests of the Company Group. “Works”
means all Inventions and all Intellectual Property associated therewith that (A) are developed by Executive using equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secrets of a member of the Company Group, (B) result from work performed by Executive for a
member of the Company Group, or (C) relate to the business of the Company Group or actual or demonstrably anticipated research and development of a member of the Company Group. Executive acknowledges and agrees that there may be future rights
that the Company or a member of the Company Group may otherwise become entitled to with respect to the Works that do not yet exist, as well as new uses, media, means and forms of exploitation throughout the world exploiting current or future
technology yet to be developed, and Executive specifically intends the assignment of rights to the Company set forth herein to include all such now known or unknown uses, media and forms of exploitation throughout the world.
14
6. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND POLICIES. Executive will comply with all Applicable Laws (as
defined below) generally applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates and their respective employees, directors and officers. In addition, Executive shall perform all the Services in accordance with Applicable Laws and the
Company’s policies, procedures and rules as such are amended from time to time. “Applicable Laws” means collectively all federal, state and local laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, regulations, rules, requirements, guidelines, court
rulings, orders or determinations of all governmental authorities applicable to the performance of Executive’s Services.
7. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement, and all of the terms and conditions hereof,
shall bind the Company and its successors and assigns and shall bind Executive and Executive’s heirs, executors, administrators and successors; provided that the services provided by Executive under this Agreement are of a personal
nature, and rights and obligations of Executive under this Agreement shall not be assignable or delegable, except for any death payments otherwise due Executive, which shall be payable to the estate of Executive. The Company may assign the
rights and obligations of the Company hereunder, in whole or in part, to any of the Company’s Subsidiaries, affiliates or parent corporations; provided that such Subsidiary, affiliate or parent corporation directly or indirectly
owns all or substantially all of the Company’s consolidated assets, or to any other successor or assign in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or stock or in connection with any merger, acquisition and/or
reorganization, provided the assignee assumes the obligations of the Company hereunder.

To Executive:
At the address shown in Section 6 of the Consulting Agreement or to such other address or to the attention of such other person as the recipient party will have specified by prior written notice to
the sending party.
(b) Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction and subject to this paragraph be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining
provisions hereof in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provisions of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. If any covenant should be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a court of
competent jurisdiction because its scope is considered excessive, such covenant shall be modified so that the scope of the covenant is reduced only to the minimum extent necessary to render the modified covenant valid, legal and enforceable.
(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including any Exhibits), together with the Consulting Agreement,
constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and, effective as of the Effective Date, supersedes all prior and contemporaneous representations,
warranties, understandings and agreements, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.
(d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and each counterpart, when so executed
and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original and both counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same Agreement. A faxed or .pdf-ed signature shall operate the same as an original signature.
(e) Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing
signed by all of the parties hereto. The waiver by either party of the other party’s prompt and complete performance, or breach or violation, of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach or violation, and the delay in exercising or failure by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy which it may possess hereunder shall not operate nor be construed as a bar to the exercise of such right or remedy by such party
upon the occurrence of any subsequent breach or violation. No waiver shall be deemed to have occurred unless set forth in a writing executed by or on behalf of the waiving party. No such written waiver shall be deemed a continuing waiver
unless specifically stated therein, and each such waiver shall operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically
waived.
(f) Taxes. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive shall be responsible for payment to the
proper authorities of any and all applicable taxes, employment insurance premiums, Canada Pension Plan contributions and Workers’ Compensation insurance premiums in respect of the remuneration paid hereunder. The Company shall not be liable to
the Executive for any damages, liabilities, penalties, interest or costs caused to Executive for failure to make any required source deductions or payments that the Company would make in respect of payment or remuneration to employees.
Executive agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Company from any and all damages, penalties, interest, costs and liabilities of any nature arising as a result of the Company not making any required source deductions pursuant to the Income
Tax Act, the Employment Insurance Act, the Canada Pension Plan or any other applicable federal, provincial, state or local laws and regulations on payments to Executive.
16
(g) Choice of Law. This Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Idaho without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law of such state.
(h) Survivorship. The provisions of this Agreement necessary to carry out the intention of the
parties as expressed herein shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 4, 5 and 8 hereof.
(i) Captions. The captions of this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and in no
way define, describe, extend or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or the intent of any provision hereof.
(j) Construction. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement is the result of arm’s-length
negotiations between sophisticated parties, each afforded representation by legal counsel. Each and every provision of this Agreement shall be construed as though both parties participated equally in the drafting of the same, and any rule of
construction that a document shall be construed against the drafting party shall not be applicable to this Agreement.
(k) Arbitration. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement, the Company and
Executive mutually consent to the resolution by final and binding arbitration of any and all disputes, controversies or claims between them including, without limitation, (i) any dispute, controversy or claim related in any way to Executive’s
provision of the Services to the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate or any termination thereof, (ii) any dispute, controversy or claim of alleged discrimination, harassment or retaliation (including, but not limited to, claims based on
race, sex, sexual preference, religion, national origin, age, marital or family status, medical condition, handicap or disability) and (iii) any claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof (collectively, “Disputes”);
provided, however, that nothing herein shall require arbitration of any claim or charge which, by law, cannot be the subject of a compulsory arbitration agreement; provided, further, that notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, Executive may, but is not required to, arbitrate claims for sexual harassment or assault to the extent applicable law renders a pre-dispute arbitration agreement covering such claims invalid or unenforceable. All
Disputes shall be resolved exclusively by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect (the “AAA Rules”).
(i) Any arbitration proceeding brought under this Agreement shall be conducted in
Boise, Idaho before one arbitrator selected in accordance with the AAA Rules. The Company will pay for any administrative, hearing fees and/or filing fees charged by the arbitrator or AAA. Each party to any Dispute shall pay its own expenses,
including attorneys’ fees; provided that, the arbitrator shall award the prevailing party reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred but shall not be able to award any special or punitive damages. The arbitrator shall issue a decision
or award in writing, stating the essential findings of fact and conclusions of law.
(ii) Any judgment on or enforcement of any award, including an award providing
for interim or permanent injunctive relief, rendered by the arbitrator may be entered, enforced or appealed from in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any arbitration proceedings, decision or award rendered hereunder, and the validity, effect
and interpretation of this arbitration provision, shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.
17
(iii) It is part of the essence of this Agreement that any Disputes hereunder shall be resolved expeditiously
and as confidentially as possible. Accordingly, the Company and Executive agree that all proceedings in any arbitration shall be conducted under seal and kept strictly confidential. In that regard, no party shall use, disclose or permit the
disclosure of any information, evidence or documents produced by any other party in the arbitration proceedings or about the existence, contents or results of the proceedings except as may be required by any legal process, as required in an
action in aid of arbitration or for enforcement of or appeal from an arbitral award or as may be permitted by the arbitrator for the preparation and conduct of the arbitration proceedings. Before making any disclosure permitted by the preceding
sentence, the party intending to make such disclosure shall give the other party reasonable written notice of the intended disclosure and afford such other party a reasonable opportunity to protect its interests.
(l) Clawback. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any
performance-based incentive compensation amounts paid or payable to Executive (or the Consultant) shall be subject to forfeiture, reduction, and/or recoupment (i) to the extent provided in the Company’s Clawback and Forfeiture Policy, as it may
be amended from time to time; (ii) to the extent that Executive becomes subject to any other recoupment or clawback policy hereafter adopted by the Company, including any such policy adopted by the Company to comply with the requirements of any
applicable laws, rules, regulations, or stock exchange listing requirements, including pursuant to final SEC rules under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; or (iii) to the extent provided under applicable legal
requirements which impose recoupment, under circumstances set forth in such applicable legal requirements, including the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002.
9. EXECUTIVE REPRESENTATION AND ACCEPTANCE. By signing this Agreement,
Executive hereby represents that Executive is not restricted by any agreement or arrangement from entering into this Agreement and performing the Services.
18
