Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election

of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On October 1, 2026, United States Antimony

Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an employment agreement with Gary C. Evans to continue as the Chief Executive Officer

of the Company (the “Employment Agreement”). The following is a summary of the material terms of the Employment Agreement.

The Employment Agreement is effective as of August 1,

2026. The Employment Agreement has a three-year term and provides for an annual base salary of $430,000 per year, subject to annual review.

Mr. Evans will have an opportunity to receive an annual bonus based upon the achievement of performance goals established from year

to year by the Compensation Committee of the Company in consultation with the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. Evans will

also have an opportunity to participate in the benefit plans maintained by the Company to the extent eligible, subject to the terms and

conditions of such plans, and he will be entitled to five (5) weeks of paid vacation each year, offered consistent with the Company’s

policy for senior executives.

Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, if a change

in control of the Company occurs during the term of the Employment Agreement and, within twenty-four months following such change in control,

the Company terminates Mr. Evans’ employment other than for “cause” or Mr. Evans resigns for “good reason”

(as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement), then the Company will pay to Mr. Evans an amount equal to two times the

sum of Mr. Evans’ then-current base salary and target bonus with respect to the immediately prior calendar year, payable in

substantially equal installments over the twenty-four (24) months following his termination, subject to Mr. Evans’ compliance

with certain restrictive covenants and execution and non-revocation of a mutual general release of claims.

Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, if the

Company terminates Mr. Evans’ employment other than for cause or Mr. Evans resigns for good reason prior to a change

in control or more than twenty-four (24) months following a change in control, then the Company will pay Mr. Evans an amount

equal to one-and-a-half (1.5) times the sum of Mr. Evans’ then-current base salary and target bonus payable in

substantially equal installments over eighteen (18) months in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, in

addition to a pro-rated bonus for the calendar year in which the termination date occurs, each subject to Mr. Evans’

compliance with certain restrictive covenants and execution and non-revocation of a separation agreement and mutual general release

of claims. In addition, within thirty (30) days of the termination date, the Company will pay Mr. Evans in

a lump sum in cash any “accrued obligations” (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement).

customer and prospective customer non-solicitation / non-interference and personnel non-solicitation covenants that apply during his employment

with the Company and for periods between one (1) and two (2) years following his termination of employment.

Exhibit 10.1

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”),

effective as of August 1, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), is entered into by and between Gary C. Evans (“Executive”)

and United States Antimony Corporation, a Texas corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires

to establish its right to the services of Executive, in the capacity described below, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth,

and Executive is willing to accept such employment on such terms and conditions.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration

of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, Executive and the Company have agreed and do hereby agree as follows:

1A.          EMPLOYMENT.

During the Term (as defined below), the Company shall employ Executive, and Executive shall be employed, as the Chief Executive Officer

of the Company and Executive shall do and perform all services and acts necessary or advisable to fulfill the duties and responsibilities

as are commensurate and consistent with such position and shall render such services on the terms set forth herein. During Executive’s

employment with the Company, Executive shall report to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”)

and shall be nominated to stand for election to the Board during the Term. Executive shall have such powers and duties with respect to

the Company as may be assigned to Executive by the Board, to the extent consistent with Executive’s position as Chief Executive

Officer of the Company. Executive agrees to devote substantially all of Executive’s working time, attention and efforts to the

Company and to perform the duties of Executive’s position in accordance with the Company’s written policies as in effect

from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may (i) participate in or serve or advise on the boards of directors

of (A) civic and charitable activities, and (B) with the Board’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed),

additional private and public companies that do not compete with the Company, (ii) engage in speaking activities, (iii) manage

Executive’s and Executive’s immediate family’s personal investments, and (iv) purchase or own securities in any

private or publicly traded companies that do not compete with the Company; in all events so long as such activities do not conflict with

or materially interfere with Executive’s performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. During the Term, Executive’s

principal place of employment shall be principally, Dallas, Texas (the “Principal Location”); provided, however,

that Executive shall travel as necessary to fulfill Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company.

2A.          TERM.

This Agreement, and Executive’s employment hereunder, shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for a period of three

(3) years following the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”), unless earlier terminated in accordance with

the terms of this Agreement. If not earlier terminated, the Initial Term shall automatically be renewed for successive one (1)-year periods

on the third anniversary of the Effective Date and on each anniversary thereafter (the Initial Term, together with each successive one-year

renewal term, the “Term”), unless either party hereto provides written notice to the other, at least ninety

(90) days prior to the end of the applicable Term, that it elects not to extend the Term, which notice shall be irrevocable (any such

notice, a “Non-Renewal Notice”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Executive’s

employment hereunder is “at will” and may be terminated by the Company or Executive at any time for any reason or for no

reason, with or without Cause (as defined below), subject to the provisions of Section 1 of the Standard Terms and Conditions attached

as Exhibit A hereto (the “Standard Terms and Conditions”).

3A.          COMPENSATION.

(a)            BASE

SALARY. During the Term, the Company shall pay Executive an annual base salary of $430,000 (the “Base Salary”),

pro-rated for partial years of employment. The Base Salary shall be payable in equal biweekly installments (or, if different, in accordance

with the Company’s payroll practice as in effect from time to time, but no less often than monthly). The Base Salary will be reviewed

annually by the Board (or its Compensation Committee (the “Committee”)), and may be adjusted in the sole discretion

of the Board. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Base Salary” shall refer to the Base Salary as in effect from

time to time.

(b)            ANNUAL

BONUS. For each calendar year ending during the Term, Executive shall be eligible to receive a discretionary annual cash bonus (payable

at the same time as bonuses are paid to other executives at the Company, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year

following the year with respect to which such bonuses are payable). The target amount of the annual bonus shall be equal to 100% of Executive’s

Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”), with the actual amount (which could be less or greater than the target amount

above but in no event greater than 200% of Executive’s Base Salary), if any, in all cases to be determined by the Committee, in

consultation with the Board and based on performance metrics proposed by management and approved by the Committee. The payment of any

such bonus, to the extent payable, will be subject to Executive’s continued employment through the date on which the bonus is paid.

Executive may also be eligible to receive additional bonuses from time to time as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to participate in any welfare, health and life insurance, pension, retirement, benefit and

incentive programs as may be adopted from time to time by the Company on the same basis as that provided to similarly situated senior

executives of the Company and subject to the terms and conditions of such programs. Nothing in this Agreement will preclude the Company

from changing, altering or terminating any of the plans or programs for which employees of the Company are eligible, in whole or in part,

in the Company’s sole discretion. Executive also shall be entitled to statutory holidays and the number of paid holidays provided

for under the policies and procedures of the Company, as they may exist from time to time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:

(i)            Vacation.

During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to five (5) weeks of paid vacation each year, in accordance with the Company’s

vacation policy applicable to similarly situated senior executives of the Company generally, as it may exist from time to time. Executive

shall take such vacation only at times approved in writing in advance by the Board, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(ii)           Reimbursement

for Expenses. During the Term, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred by Executive in performing

Executive’s duties for the Company, on at least the same basis as similarly situated senior executives and in accordance with the

Company’s policies as in effect from time to time.

(d)            EQUITY

AWARDS. Under and subject to the provisions of the United States Antimony Corporation Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan,

as amended from time to time (the “2023 Plan”), Executive shall be eligible to receive annual awards, subject

to applicable approvals of the Board and the Committee, in the range of 200% to 250% of Executive’s Base Salary, as determined

in the Committee’s sole discretion and consistent with market practice and Company performance. In the event of a Change of Control,

all outstanding equity awards under the 2023 Plan shall vest in accordance with the terms of the 2023 Plan; provided, however, that if

any awards are assumed or replaced in connection with the Change in Control, vesting shall continue in accordance with the terms of the

assumed or replaced awards unless otherwise determined by the Committee. Any cash out, substitution or adjustment of any awards by the

Committee under the 2023 Plan shall be effectuated in a manner that is consistent with the terms and conditions of the 2023 Plan. For

purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall have the meaning set forth in the 2023 Plan.

5A.          GOVERNING

LAW; JURISDICTION. This Agreement and the legal relations thus created between the parties hereto (including, without limitation,

any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement or Executive’s employment) shall be governed by and construed under and

in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas without reference to its principles of conflicts of laws. Any dispute between

of or related to this Agreement and (d) agrees that a judgment or order of any court referred to above in connection with any dispute

between the parties hereto arising out of or related to this Agreement is conclusive and binding on it and may be enforced against it

in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

6A.          COUNTERPARTS.

This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute

one and the same instrument.

-3-

7A.         STANDARD

TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Executive expressly understands and acknowledges that the Standard Terms and Conditions attached hereto are

incorporated herein by reference, deemed a part of this Agreement and are binding and enforceable provisions of this Agreement. References

to “this Agreement” or the use of the term “hereof” shall refer to this Agreement and the Standard Terms and

Conditions attached hereto, taken as a whole.

8A.         SECTION 409A

OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.

(a)            It

is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement and the Company’s and Executive’s exercise of authority or discretion

hereunder shall comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),

and the rules and regulations issued thereunder (“Section 409A”) or an available exemption therefrom,

and thus avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted

consistent with that intent.

(b)            For

purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” occurs when Executive dies, retires or otherwise has

a termination of employment with the Company that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury

Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1), without regard to the optional alternative definitions available thereunder (the date of any

such Separation from Service, a “Termination Date”).

Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date

of Executive’s Separation from Service, Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefit pursuant to Section 1 of

the Standard Terms and Conditions to the extent that any such payment would constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation”

(if at all) within the meaning of Section 409A until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after his Separation

from Service for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. The provisions of this paragraph shall

only apply if, and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section 409A. Any

amounts otherwise payable to Executive upon or in the six (6) month period following Executive’s Separation from Service that

are not so paid by reason of this Section 8A(c) shall be paid (without interest) as soon as practicable after the date that

is six (6) months after Executive’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, as soon as practicable after the date of Executive’s

death).

(d)            To

the extent that any reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement is taxable to Executive, Executive shall provide the Company with documentation

of the related expenses promptly so as to facilitate the timing of the reimbursement payment contemplated by this paragraph, and any

reimbursement payment due to Executive pursuant to such provision shall be paid to Executive on or before the last day of Executive’s

taxable year following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. Such reimbursement obligations pursuant to this Agreement

are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in one taxable

year shall not affect the amount of such benefits that Executive receives in any other taxable year.

(e)            In

no event shall the Company be required to pay Executive any “gross-up” or other payment with respect to any taxes or penalties

imposed under Section 409A with respect to any benefit paid to Executive hereunder. The Company agrees to take any reasonable steps

requested by Executive to avoid adverse tax consequences to Executive as a result of any benefit to Executive hereunder being subject

to Section 409A, provided that Executive shall, if requested, reimburse the Company for any incremental costs (other than

incidental costs) associated with taking such steps.

(f)            Any

right to a series of installment payments pursuant to this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. All

payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a Separation from Service under Section 409A.

-4-

9A.         INDEMNIFICATION.

The Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless for acts and omissions in Executive’s capacity as an officer, director

or employee of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law; provided, however, that, except as otherwise

required by applicable law, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries and affiliates shall indemnify Executive for any losses incurred

by Executive as a result of acts described in Section 1(c) of the Standard Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.

10A.       REDUCTION

OF CERTAIN PAYMENTS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in any other agreement between Executive and the

Company or any plan maintained by the Company, if there is a 280G Change in Control (as defined in Section 10A(e)(i) below),

the following rules shall apply:

(a)            Except

as otherwise provided in Section 10A(c) below, if it is determined in accordance with Section 10A(d) below that any

portion of the Contingent Compensation Payments (as defined in 10A(e)(ii) below) that otherwise would be paid or provided to Executive

or for his benefit in connection with the 280G Change in Control would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of

the Code (“Excise Tax”), then such Contingent Compensation Payments shall be reduced by the smallest total

amount necessary in order for the aggregate present value of all such Contingent Compensation Payments after such reduction, as determined

in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, not to exceed the

Excise Tax Threshold Amount (as defined in Section 10A(e)(iii) below).

(b)           If

the Auditor (as defined in Section 10A(d) below) determines that any reduction is so required, the Payments to be reduced,

and the reduction to be made to such Payments, shall be determined by the Auditor in its sole discretion in a manner which will result

in the least economic cost to Executive, and if the reduction with respect to two or more Payments would result in equivalent economic

cost to Executive, such Payments shall be reduced in the inverse chronological order of the dates on which such Payments were otherwise

scheduled to be made to Executive, until the required reduction has been fully achieved.

the foregoing, no reduction in any of the Executive’s Contingent Compensation Payments shall be made pursuant to Section 10A(a) above

if it is determined in accordance with Section 10A(d) below that the After Tax Amount of the Contingent Compensation Payments

payable to Executive without such reduction would exceed the After Tax Amount of the reduced Contingent Compensation Payments payable

to Executive in accordance with Section 10A(a) above. For purposes of the foregoing, (x) the “After Tax Amount”

of the Contingent Compensation Payments, as computed with, and as computed without, the reduction provided for under Section 10A(a) above,

shall mean the amount of the Contingent Compensation Payments, as so computed, that Executive would retain after payment of all taxes

(including without limitation any federal, state or local income taxes, the Excise Tax or any other excise taxes, any Medicare or other

employment taxes, and any other taxes) imposed on such Contingent Compensation Payments in the year or years in which payable; and (y) the

amount of such taxes shall be computed at the rates in effect under the applicable tax laws in the year in which the 280G Change in Control

occurs, or if then ascertainable, the rates in effect in any later year in which any Contingent Compensation Payment is expected to be

paid following the 280G Change in Control, and in the case of any income taxes, by using the maximum combined federal, state and (if

applicable) local income tax rates then in effect under such laws.

-5-

(d)           A

determination as to whether any Excise Tax is payable with respect to Executive’s Contingent Compensation Payments and if so, as

to the amount thereof, and a determination as to whether any reduction in Executive’s Contingent Compensation Payments is required

pursuant to the provisions of Sections 10A(a) and 10A(c) above, and if so, as to the amount of the reduction so required, shall

be made by no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the closing of the transaction or the occurrence of the event that constitutes the

280G Change in Control. Such determinations, and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by

an independent auditor (the “Auditor”) jointly selected by Executive and the Company, all of whose fees and

expenses shall be borne and directly paid solely by the Company. The Auditor shall be a nationally recognized public accounting firm

which has not, during the two years preceding the date of its selection, acted in any way on behalf of the Company or any of its affiliates.

If Executive and the Company cannot agree on the firm to serve as the Auditor, then Executive and the Company shall each select one accounting

firm and those two firms shall jointly select the accounting firm to serve as the Auditor, all of whose fees and expenses shall be borne

and directly paid solely by the Company. The Auditor shall provide a written report of its determinations, including detailed supporting

calculations, both to Executive and to the Company. The determinations made by the Auditor pursuant to this Section 10A(d) shall

be binding upon Executive and the Company.

(e)            For

purposes of the foregoing, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

(i)            “280G

Change in Control” shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of a substantial

portion of the assets of the Company, as determined in accordance with Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and the regulations issued

thereunder.

(ii)           “Contingent

Compensation Payment” shall mean any payment or benefit in the nature of compensation that is to be paid or provided to

Executive or for Executive’s benefit in connection with a 280G Change in Control (whether under this Agreement or otherwise, including

by the entity, or by any affiliate of the entity, whose acquisition of the stock of the Company or its assets constitutes the 280G Change

in Control) if Executive is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) at the time

of the 280G Change in Control, to the extent that such payment or benefit is “contingent” on the 280G Change in Control within

the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder.

(iii)          “Excise

Tax Threshold Amount” shall mean an amount equal to (x) three times Executive’s “base amount” within

the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, less (y) $1.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.            TERMINATION

OF EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT.

(a)           DEATH.

Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death. In the event Executive’s employment hereunder

is terminated by reason of Executive’s death, (i) the Company shall pay Executive’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries

(or, if none, Executive’s estate), within thirty (30) days of Executive’s death (or such earlier date as may be required

by applicable law) in a single, lump sum in cash, (A) Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the month in which Executive’s

death occurs, and (B) any Accrued Obligations (as defined below); and (ii) Executive shall be entitled to receive the same

severance entitlements described in Section 1(d) below.

(b)           DISABILITY.

As used herein, “Disability” shall mean such term (or word of like import) as defined under the long-term disability

policy of the Company regardless of whether Executive is covered by such policy. If the Company does not have a long-term disability

policy in place, “Disability” means that Executive is unable to carry out the responsibilities and functions of the position

held by Executive by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment for a period of four (4) consecutive months.

If within thirty (30) days after written notice of a pending termination for Disability is provided to Executive by the Company (in accordance

with Section 4A above), Executive is not able to substantially perform Executive’s duties hereunder, then Executive’s

employment under this Agreement may be terminated by the Company due to such Disability. During any period prior to such termination

during which Executive is absent from the full-time performance of Executive’s duties with the Company due to Disability, the Company

shall continue to pay Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of such period of Disability, offset by

any amounts payable to Executive under any disability insurance plan or policy provided by the Company. Upon termination of Executive’s

employment due to Disability, (i) the Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days of such termination (or such earlier date

as may be required by applicable law) in a single, lump sum in cash (A) Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the month

Company, and (B) any Accrued Obligations; and (ii) Executive shall be entitled to receive the same severance entitlements described

in Section 1(d) below.

FOR CAUSE; TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE WITHOUT GOOD REASON. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for

Cause (as defined below) or by Executive without Good Reason (as defined below), the Company shall have no further obligation hereunder,

(other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness); or (v) a knowing and material violation

by Executive of any material Company policy pertaining to ethics, wrongdoing or conflicts of interest, which policy had been provided

to Executive in writing or otherwise made generally available prior to such violation; provided, that in the case of conduct described

in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above which is capable of being cured, Executive shall have a period of no less than ten

(10) days after Executive is provided with written notice (specifying in reasonable detail the acts or omissions believed to constitute

Cause and the steps necessary to remedy such condition, if curable) in which to cure, which such notice specifically identifies the breach,

the nature of the willful or gross neglect or the violation that the Company believes constitutes Cause.

(d)           TERMINATION

BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE OR RESIGNATION BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON WITHOUT A CHANGE IN CONTROL. If Executive’s employment

hereunder is terminated prior to the expiration of the Term by the Company for any reason other than for Cause or if Executive terminates

Executive’s employment hereunder prior to the expiration of the Term for Good Reason, in any case, outside of the Change in Control

Period (as defined below), then:

(i)            the

Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to one-and-a-half (1.5) times the sum of the Executive’s Base Salary and Target

Bonus, payable in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices over the eighteen

(18) months from the Termination Date (the “Severance Period”), which installments shall commence on the first

payroll date following the effective date of the Release (as defined below) and amounts otherwise payable prior to such first payroll

date shall be paid on such date without interest thereon (it being understood that if any applicable Release consideration/revocation

period spans two calendar years, in no event shall any such payments be made prior to the first Company payroll date in the latter such

calendar year, if later than the date such payments would otherwise commence);

(ii)           in

addition, the Company shall pay Executive within thirty (30) days after the Termination Date (or such earlier date as may be required

by applicable law) in a lump sum in cash any Accrued Obligations;

(iii)          in

addition, the Company shall pay a pro-rated bonus for the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs based on the number of calendar

days Executive was employed by the Company in relation to three hundred sixty five (365). Such pro-rated bonus shall be based upon actual

Company performance for such calendar year and shall be paid no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year

with respect to which such bonuses are payable; and

(iv)          the

Company shall, during the Severance Period, provide Executive with continued coverage under the Company’s group health plan, at

the Company’s cost, or with an additional taxable monthly payment in an amount equal to the full premiums for continued healthcare

coverage under the Company’s plans through COBRA, at the same coverage level as in effect for Executive as of the Termination Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive obtains alternative employment during the Severance Period offering employer-paid

healthcare coverage that is no less favorable in the aggregate than the benefits provided under the Company’s group health plan

for active employees, Executive shall enroll in and obtain coverage under such new employer’s plan at the earliest opportunity

and the Company’s obligations under this clause (iv) shall cease as of the effective date of such alternate coverage.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Good

Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following without Executive’s written consent: (A) a material

Salary or Target Bonus, (C) the Company requiring Executive’s Principal Location to be relocated beyond one hundred (100)

miles, or (D) any material breach by the Company of this Agreement; provided that in no event shall Executive’s resignation

be for “Good Reason” unless (x) an event or circumstance constituting “Good Reason” shall have occurred

and Executive provides the Company with written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after Executive has knowledge of the occurrence

or existence of such event or circumstance, which notice specifically identifies the event or circumstance that Executive believes constitutes

Good Reason, (y) the Company fails to correct the circumstance or event so identified within thirty (30) days after the receipt

of such notice, and (z) Executive resigns within ninety (90) days after the date of delivery of the notice referred to in clause

(x) above.

(e)           TERMINATION

BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE OR RESIGNATION BY EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON IN CONNECTION WITH A CHANGE IN CONTROL. If Executive’s

employment hereunder is terminated during the Term by the Company for any reason other than for Cause or if Executive terminates Executive’s

employment hereunder during the Term for Good Reason, in any case, within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control (the

“Change in Control Period”), then Executive shall be entitled to receive the same severance entitlements described

in Section 1(d), except that:

(i)            the

total amount of payments pursuant to Section 1(d)(i) shall be equal to two (2) times the sum of Executive’s Base

Salary and Target Bonus, payable in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices

over the twenty-four (24) months from the Termination Date (the “CIC Severance Period”);

(ii)           if

actual performance is not reasonably determinable as of the Termination Date, the pro-rated bonus pursuant to Section 1(d)(iii) shall

be based upon the established targets; and

(iii)          the

benefits payable pursuant to Section 1(d)(iv) shall be paid or provided during the CIC Severance Period (i.e., up to twenty-four

(24) months rather than up to eighteen (18) months).

(f)            RELEASE.

The payments and severance benefits described in Sections 1(a), 1(b), 1(d) and 1(e), with the exception of the payment of the Accrued

Obligations thereunder, shall be subject to Executive’s compliance in all material respects with the restrictive covenants set

forth in Section 2 below and Executive’s execution within twenty-one (21) days following the Termination Date (or such longer

period as may be required by applicable law) and non-revocation of a mutual general release of claims (the “Release”).

(g)           EXCLUSIVE

BENEFIT. Except as expressly provided in this Section 1, Executive shall not be entitled to any additional payments or benefits

upon or in connection with Executive’s termination of employment.

OBLIGATIONS. As used in this Agreement, “Accrued Obligations” shall mean the sum of (i) any portion

of Executive’s accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the Termination Date; (ii) any unreimbursed business expenses incurred by

Executive prior to the Termination Date that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 3A(c)(ii) above; and (iii) the

value of any accrued and unused vacation days.

FROM ALL POSITIONS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon the termination of Executive’s employment for

any reason, unless otherwise requested by the Board, Executive shall immediately resign as of the Termination Date from all positions

that Executive holds with the Company and any of its subsidiaries, including, without limitation, the Board and all boards of directors

that any restriction in this Section 2 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under the laws of

that state, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it

enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the law of that state.

3.            TERMINATION

OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS / EXISTING CLAIMS / AUTHORITY. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto

and, as of the Effective Date, terminates and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between

the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor anyone

acting on its behalf has made, and no such person or entity is making, and in executing this Agreement, Executive has not relied upon,

any representations, promises or inducements except to the extent the same is expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Company represents

that it has due authority to enter into this Agreement and has taken all necessary corporate action to enter into this Agreement and

provide the compensation set forth herein.

4.            ASSIGNMENT;

SUCCESSORS. This Agreement is personal in its nature and none of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the others,

assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, other than Executive to his heirs and beneficiaries upon his

death to the extent provided in this Agreement; provided that (i) the Company may assign or transfer this Agreement to any

subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, and (ii) in the event of the merger, consolidation, transfer, or sale of all or substantially

a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. References to “this Agreement” or the use of the term “hereof”

shall refer to these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Employment Agreement attached hereto, taken as a whole.

7. REMEDIES FOR BREACH.

(a)           Executive

expressly agrees and understands that Executive will notify the Company in writing of any alleged breach of this Agreement by the Company,

and the Company will have thirty (30) days from receipt of Executive’s notice to cure any such breach. Executive expressly agrees

and understands that in the event of any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company during the Term, the Company’s

contractual obligations to Executive shall be fulfilled through compliance with its obligations under these Standard Terms and Conditions.

(b)           Executive

expressly agrees and understands that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Executive of Section 2 of these Standard

Terms and Conditions, the Company will have no adequate means of protecting its Confidential Information, Company goodwill, reputation,

acquired market standing, training investment, commercial advantages, and other rights under this Agreement, the Company will suffer

irreparable harm; and money damages alone will not be an adequate and complete remedy to redress the harm to the Company. Accordingly,

Executive agrees that, upon Executive’s breach or threatened breach of any provision of such Section 2, the Company shall

be entitled to seek from any court of competent jurisdiction immediate injunctive relief and a temporary order restraining any threatened

or further breach as well as an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of such violation. Nothing in this Agreement

shall be deemed to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this

Agreement, including Section 2, which may be pursued by or available to the Company.

Executive violates Section 2 of these Standard Terms and Conditions, unless expressly prohibited by law, the period of the covenant

shall be automatically extended for a period of time equal to the period of such breach.

(d)           If

the Company seeks a temporary restraining order, an injunction, or any other form of equitable relief for Executive’s violation

of Section 2 of these Standard Terms and Conditions, and recovers any such relief, or if the Company obtains a final judgment of

a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to which Executive is determined to have breached Executives obligations in such Section 2,

Executive shall reimburse the Company for its reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other costs and expenses incurred obtaining

that relief and/or judgment (even if other relief is denied).

8.            WAIVER;

MODIFICATION. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants, or conditions hereof shall not be deemed

a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of, or failure to insist upon strict compliance

with, any right or power hereunder at any one or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of such right or power at any other

time or times. This Agreement shall not be modified in any respect except by a writing executed by each party hereto.

9.            SEVERABILITY.

In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion of this Agreement is in violation of any law or public

policy, only the portions of this Agreement that violate such law or public policy shall be stricken. All portions of this Agreement

that do not violate any statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. Further, any court order striking any portion

of this Agreement shall modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the

parties under this Agreement.

10.          SARBANES-OXLEY

ACT OF 2002. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Company determines, in its good faith judgment, that any

transfer or deemed transfer of funds hereunder is likely to be construed as a personal loan prohibited by Section 13(k) of

the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, then such transfer or deemed transfer shall be provided

to Executive as compensation (and not as a loan) to Executive (and as such shall be subject to tax withholding obligations).

11.          EXECUTIVE

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) Executive is entering into this Agreement

voluntarily and that Executive’s acceptance of employment with the Company and the performance of Executive’s duties and

responsibilities hereunder will not, in any case, violate any agreement between Executive and any other person, firm, organization or

other entity; (b) Executive is not bound by the terms of any agreement with any previous employer or other party to refrain from

competing, directly or indirectly, with the business of such previous employer or other party, in any case, that would be violated by

Executive’s entering into this Agreement and/or providing services to the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and

(c) all compensation payable under this Agreement, inclusive of equity awards under the 2023 Plan, are subject to the Company’s

clawback policy, SEC Rule 10D-1 and applicable New York Stock Exchange requirements.
