and each Group Company that You will not for a period of 6 months following the Termination Date, directly or indirectly, on your own
behalf, or on behalf of any person, firm or company within the Restricted Territory (as defined above) set up, carry on, be employed
in, provide services to, be associated with, or be engaged or interested in, whether as director, employee, principal, shareholder,
partner or other owner, agent or otherwise, any business which is, or is intended or about to be, competitive with the Restricted Business
save as a shareholder for investment purposes only of not more than three per cent of any public company whose shares or stocks are
quoted or dealt in on any Recognised Investment Exchange.
22.5
You covenant with the Company
and each Group Company that You will not for a period of 6 months following the Termination Date, directly or indirectly, on your own
behalf, or on behalf of any person, firm or company endeavour to cause any person, firm or company who at the Termination Date, or
at any time during the 12 months immediately prior to the Termination Date, is or was a Restricted Supplier (as defined above) to the
Company and/or any Group Company, to either cease to supply the Company or any Group Company or materially alter the terms of such
supply in a manner detrimental to the Company or any Group Company.
22.6
In the event that You receive
an offer of employment or request to provide services either during the Appointment or during the currency of the restrictive periods
set out in clauses 22.3 and 22.4 and 22.5, You must (and the Company may) provide immediately to such person, company or other entity
making such an offer or request a full and accurate copy of this agreement signed by both parties.
22.7
The restrictions contained
in this clause are considered by the parties to be reasonable in all the circumstances. Each sub clause constitutes an entirely separate
and independent restriction and the duration, extent and application of each of the restrictions are no greater than is necessary for
the protection of the interests of the Company and any Group Company.
23
Intellectual Property Rights
23.1
You (and the Company) acknowledge
that You may create Inventions (alone or jointly) in the course of your employment with the Company and that You have a special obligation
to further the interests of the Company in relation to such Inventions. You must, promptly following creation, disclose to the Company
all such Inventions and works embodying Company Intellectual Property.
23.2
You acknowledge that (except
to the extent prohibited by or ineffective in law) all Company Intellectual Property and materials embodying them will automatically
belong to the Company as from creation for the full term of those rights.
19
23.3
To the extent that any Company
Intellectual Property does not vest in the Company automatically pursuant to clause 23.2 (and except to the extent prohibited by or
ineffective in law) You:
(a)
hereby assign, by way of
present and future assignment, any and all right, title and interest in the Company Intellectual Property to the Company; and
(b)
must hold the Company Intellectual
Property on trust for the benefit of the Company until such Company Intellectual Property fully vests in the Company; and
(c)
hereby grant to the Company
an exclusive, worldwide, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free and fully paid-up licence to use the Company Intellectual Property
in its discretion until such Company Intellectual Property fully vests in the Company.
23.4
To
the extent that any Inventions You create (whether alone or jointly) at any time during the course of your Appointment are prohibited
by or prevented in law from automatically vesting with the Company pursuant to clause 23.2 or from being assigned to the Company pursuant
to clause 23.3(a), You must, immediately upon creation of such rights, grant the Company a right of first refusal, in writing, to acquire
them on arm’s length terms to be agreed between You and the Company. If You and the Company cannot agree on such terms within
30 days of the Company receiving your offer, the Company will refer the dispute to an independent expert who will be appointed by the
President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. The expert will be instructed to act as an independent expert,
and not as an arbitrator. The expert’s decision will be final and binding on the parties and the costs of the expert’s
determination will be borne equally by You and the Company.
23.5
You agree:
(a)
to do everything You can
to execute all such documents, both during and after the Appointment, as the Company may require to vest in the Company all right,
title and interest pursuant to this agreement at the reasonable expense of the Company;
(b)
to do everything You can
to provide all such information and assistance and do all such further things as the Company may require to enable it to protect, maintain
and exploit the Company Intellectual Property to the best advantage, at the reasonable expense of the Company, including (without limitation),
at the Company’s request, applying for the protection of Inventions throughout the world;
(c)
to do everything You can
to assist the Company in applying for the registration of any registrable Company Intellectual Property, to enable it to enforce the
Company Intellectual Property against third parties and to defend claims for infringement of third party Intellectual Property Rights
at the reasonable expense of the Company;
(d)
not to apply for the registration
of any Company Intellectual Property in the United Kingdom or any other part of the world without the prior written consent of the
Company; and
(e)
to keep confidential all
Company Intellectual Property unless the Company has consented in writing to its disclosure by You.
23.6
You hereby waive, as against
the Company, its successors and assigns and any licensee of any of the foregoing, all of your present and future moral rights which
arise under the Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 and all similar rights in other jurisdictions relating to the Company Intellectual
Property.
23.7
You acknowledge that, except
as provided by law, no further remuneration or compensation, other than that provided for in this agreement, is or may become due to
You in respect of your compliance with this clause 23. This clause is without prejudice to your rights under the Patents Act 1977.
20
23.8
You irrevocably appoint the
Company as your attorney in your name to sign, execute, do or deliver on your behalf any deed, document or other instrument and to
use your name for the purpose of giving full effect to this clause.
23.9
Rights and obligations under
this agreement will continue in force after termination of this agreement in respect of any Company Intellectual Property.
24

Upon notice of termination
of the Appointment being given, or upon termination of the Appointment, or, at the start of a period of Garden Leave, or at any time
upon request by the Company in writing, You must:
(a)
at the request of the Company
resign from all (if any) offices held by You in the Company or any Group Company and all (if any) trusteeships held by You of any pension
scheme or any trust established or subscribed to/by the Company and any Group Company and in the event of your failure to do so the
Company is hereby irrevocably authorised to appoint some person in your name and on your behalf to sign and execute all documents and
do all things necessary to constitute and give effect to such resignation;
(b)
immediately return to the
Company all Company or Group Company related correspondence (including emails), documents, papers, materials, memoranda, notes, records
(on whatever media and whether or not prepared or produced by You) and any copies thereof, all Confidential Information, all business

provided to You as a contractual benefit;
(c)
if requested send to the
Company a signed statement confirming that You have complied with clause 23.3 (b); and
(d)

assistance as the Company may require in ensuring the smooth and orderly handover of your role to any individual(s) nominated by the
Company.
24.4
You agree that the Company
may withhold any sums owing to You on termination of your Appointment pending your compliance with clause 24.3(b).
24.5
Following notice to terminate
the Appointment being given by the Company or You, the Company may at any time:
(a)
announce to employees, officers,
shareholders, investors, clients, customers and suppliers of the Company or any Group Company and/or (where appropriate) on a more
general basis that the Appointment is ending and, where reasonably appropriate, the reason for such termination. You will not make
any such announcement unless You have first obtained the Company’s express written consent; and/or
(b)

of your role.
24.6
You must not at any time

Company or the Group.
25
Payment
in lieu of notice
25.1
At its absolute discretion
the Company may at any time (including without limitation after notice of termination has been given by either party) lawfully terminate
this agreement with immediate effect by notifying You in writing that the Company is exercising its right under this clause 25.1 and
that it will make within 45 days a payment in lieu of notice (Payment in Lieu).
22
25.2
The Payment in Lieu will
be equal to your Salary for the then unexpired period of notice (subject to deductions required by law including the deduction at source
of income tax and national insurance contributions). For the avoidance of doubt, the Payment in Lieu will not include any element in
relation to:
(a)
any bonus or commission payments,
or payments, rights or benefits under any share option or long term incentive plan or salary sacrifice scheme that might otherwise
have been due had You worked for the Company during the notice period for which the Payment in Lieu is made;
(b)
any payment in respect of
benefits which You would have been entitled to receive had You worked for the Company during the notice period for which the Payment
in Lieu is made; and
(c)
any payment in respect of
any Holiday Entitlement that would have accrued had You worked for the Company during the notice period for which the Payment in Lieu
is made.
25.3
You have no right to receive
a Payment in Lieu unless the Company has exercised its discretion in clause 25.1. Nothing in this clause 25 prevents the Company from
terminating the Appointment in breach.
25.4
Notwithstanding clause 25.1
You will not be entitled to any Payment in Lieu if the Company would otherwise have been entitled to terminate the Appointment without
notice in accordance with clause 25.1 and in that case the Company will also be entitled to recover from You any Payment in Lieu already
made.
25.5
On termination of the Appointment
howsoever arising You will not have any claim for breach of contract in respect of the loss of any rights or benefits under any share
option, bonus, long-term incentive plan or other profit sharing scheme operated by the Company or by any Group Company in which You
may participate which would otherwise have accrued during the period of notice to which You are entitled.
26
Garden leave
26.1
Following notice to terminate
the Appointment being given by the Company or You or if You purport to terminate the Appointment in breach of contract the Company
may by written notice require You not to perform any services (or to perform only specified services) for the Company or for any Group
Company for all or part of the applicable notice period required under this Agreement.
26.2
During any period of Garden
Leave You will:
(a)
not be entitled to receive
any work from the Company;
(b)
continue to receive the Salary
and other contractual benefits under this agreement in the usual way and subject to the terms from time to time in force of any benefit
arrangements;
(c)
remain an employee of the
Company and remain bound by your duties and obligations, whether under this agreement or otherwise, which will continue in full force
and effect;
23
(d)
not contact or deal with
(or attempt to contact or deal with) any customer, client, supplier, agent, distributor, shareholder, employee, officer or other business
contact of the Company or any Group Company without the prior written consent of the Board;
(e)
not (unless otherwise requested)
enter onto the premises of the Company or any Group Company without the prior written consent of the Board;
(f)
not commence any other employment
or engagement (including taking up any directorships or consultancy services;
(g)
provide such assistance as
the Company or any Group Company may require to effect an orderly handover of your responsibilities to any individual or individuals
appointed by the Company or any Group Company to take over your role or responsibilities; and
(h)
make yourself available to
deal with requests for information, to provide assistance, to attend meetings and to advise on matters relating to the Business. In
connection with this clause 26.2 (h) You must ensure that your line manager knows how You can be contacted during each working day
(with the exception of such periods of Garden Leave which are taken as holiday).
26.3
In the event that the Company
exercises its rights under clause 26.1 of this agreement then any Garden Leave will be set off against and therefore reduce the periods
for which the restrictions in clauses 22.3 and 22.4 of this agreement apply.
27
Directorship
27.1
Subject to clause 27.2, the
Company will procure your appointment and You will act as a director of the Company. You must also accept (if offered) appointment

such executive powers as the Board will decide in its absolute discretion.
27.2
Your appointment as a statutory
director of the Company or any Group Company does not amount to a term of employment. In the event of you ceasing to be a statutory
director as a result of the shareholders of the Company failing to elect or re-elect you as a statutory director of the Company or
the Company removing You from any such directorship at any time for any reason, this will not amount to a breach of this agreement
and will not give rise to a claim for damages or compensation.
27.3
During your Appointment,
You must:
(a)
be responsible directly to
the Board, or Executive Chairman or CEO of the same;
(b)
observe and comply with all

Company is hereby irrevocably authorised to appoint a person in your name and on your behalf to sign and execute all documents and
do all things necessary to constitute and give effect to such resignation. Termination, at the Board’s request, of a directorship
or other office held by You will not terminate your employment or amount to a breach of the terms of this agreement by the Company.
24
27.4
You consent to the Company
or any Group Company making your service contract (as defined in the Companies Act 2006) available for inspection in compliance with
that Act notwithstanding that it contains your residential address.
27.5
Your Salary is set out at
clause 12.5 and will be inclusive of any fees and/or remuneration to which You may be entitled as a director of the Company or any

continued normal operation of the Company’s Business is reasonably perceived to be at risk due to exceptional and/or unexpected
serious national or international events which directly or indirectly impact on the Company (including, but not limited to, a catastrophe,
a pandemic, war, terrorism or financial crisis) the Company may in its absolute discretion and with immediate effect to reduce your
Salary, without any corresponding reduction in your normal working hours, by such amount as it considers reasonable to facilitate the
future viability of the Business, save that any such reduction will not exceed 50% of your Salary.
27.7
If the Company is wound up
for the purposes of reconstruction or amalgamation You will not as a result or by reason of any termination of your Appointment or
the redefinition of your duties within the Company or the Group arising or resulting from any reorganisation or amalgamation of the
Group have any claim against the Company or any other Group Company for damages for termination of your Appointment or otherwise so
long as You will be offered employment with any concern or undertaking resulting from such reconstruction reorganisation or amalgamation
on terms and conditions no less favourable to You than the terms contained in this agreement.
27.8
If You at any time have been
offered but have unreasonably refused or failed to agree to the transfer of this agreement by way of novation to a Group Company or
any company which has agreed to acquire, directly or indirectly, 50 per cent of the share capital of the Company, the Company may terminate
your Appointment by such notice as is required by section 86 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 given within one month of such offer.
27.9
Your Appointment may be terminated
without notice or payment in lieu of notice with immediate effect by the Company if at any time:

You are declared bankrupt
or have a receiving order made against You or You make any general composition with your creditors or take advantage of any statute
affording relief for insolvent debtors; or
(b)
You become prohibited by
law from being or acting as a statutory director of the Company; or
(c)
You refuse or fail to agree
to accept employment on the terms and in the circumstances specified in clause 27.8 of this agreement; or

your Appointment but without prejudice to any claim You may have for damages for breach of this agreement.
25
