Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The
disclosure required by this Item is included in Item 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”)
and is incorporated herein by reference. Based in part upon the representations of the applicable officers and directors of HeartSciences
Inc., a Texas corporation (“HeartSciences” or “Parent”), the offering and issuance of the Equity
Award (as defined below), will be exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities
laws.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain
Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 23, 2026, HeartSciences,
Fortitude Mining Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Seller”), Fortitude Mining HoldCo, LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Seller (“Fortitude”), and Cordis Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the satisfaction or waiver
of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), Merger
Sub will merge with and into Fortitude, with Fortitude surviving the merger (the “Merger”) with HeartSciences thereby
becoming the sole managing member of the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”) following the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (such transactions, the “Transactions” and such consummation,
the “Closing”).
Employment Agreement
Amendment with Andrew Simpson
In
connection with the Transactions, on June 22, 2026, HeartSciences entered into an amendment (the “Simpson EA Amendment”)
to the Employment Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2022 (the “Simpson Employment Agreement”), with Mr. Simpson, HeartSciences’
current Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), to provide certain revisions
to the definitions of “Just Cause” and “Constructive Termination” (each as defined in the Simpson EA Amendment).
In addition, effective as of the Closing, the term of the Simpson Employment Agreement will restart to commence as of the date of the
Closing and will continue for one year thereafter, with the term automatically renewing for an additional one-year period at the end of
the original one-year term and any additional one-year term, unless either Parent or Mr. Simpson gives written notice to the other party,
at least 90 days prior to the end of the applicable term, of such party’s decision not to renew. The
foregoing description of the Simpson EA Amendment does not purport to be complete and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current
Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
Bonuses
In
addition, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement and subject to the Closing, the Compensation Committee of the Board
(the “Compensation Committee”) granted an award of 425,000 restricted shares of Parent’s common stock (the “Shares”)
to Mr. Simpson (the “Simpson Equity Award”) under the HeartSciences’ 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended,
modified or restated from time to time, the “Plan”) as a retention bonus in connection with the Transactions to lead
Parent’s and the Merger Sub’s efforts to close the Transactions and to lead the current legacy business of HeartSciences after
the Closing, and to provide public-company, SEC-reporting and capital-markets guidance and transition support to HeartSciences following
the Closing. The Shares will be non-voting until they vest. The Shares were issued on June 22, 2026, before the signing of the Merger
Agreement. The vesting of such restricted shares is subject to the Conditions (as defined below).
1
The
Shares shall vest in full subject to the satisfaction of all of the following conditions (the “Conditions”): (i) occurrence
of the Closing and (ii)(x) one-fourth of the Shares shall vest on the three-month anniversary of the date of the Closing (the “Initial
Vesting Date”) and (y) thereafter, one-fourth of the Shares shall vest on each subsequent three-month anniversary of the Initial
Vesting Date (each an “Additional Initial Vesting Date” and together with the Initial Vesting Date, the “Vesting
Dates”), such that all of the Shares shall fully vest on the one-year anniversary of the date of the Closing, in each case provided
that Mr. Simpson is continuously employed in any capacity by the Parent or any of its subsidiaries from the date of the Closing through
each applicable Vesting Date (except as provided herein). If Mr. Simpson is terminated or otherwise let go by Parent or any of its subsidiaries
without Just Cause (as defined in the Simpson Employment Agreement, as amended by the Simpson EA Amendment), if the Simpson Employment
Agreement is terminated by Parent without Just Cause, or if the Simpson Employment Agreement is terminated by Mr. Simpson for Constructive
Termination (as defined in the Simpson Employment Agreement, as amended by the Simpson EA Amendment), then all of the Shares shall fully
vest immediately as of such date of Mr. Simpson’s termination or cessation of services or the expiration or termination of the Simpson
Employment Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that (A) no acceleration of vesting shall occur if Mr. Simpson’s employment
is terminated for Just Cause or for Excessive Absence (as defined in the Simpson Employment Agreement), in which case any unvested Shares
shall be forfeited and returned to Parent for cancellation, and (B) if Mr. Simpson voluntarily resigns or otherwise voluntarily departs
from Parent (other than as a result of any termination of the Simpson Employment Agreement by Mr. Simpson for Constructive Termination
or the expiration of the Simpson Employment Agreement), such voluntary resignation or voluntary termination shall not be deemed to satisfy
the continued-employment requirement with respect to the applicable Vesting Date and the applicable portion of the Shares shall not vest.
In addition, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Simpson Employment Agreement) other than as a result of the Closing,
100% of any unvested Shares shall immediately become fully vested. The foregoing description of the Simpson Equity Award does not purport
to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the related award agreement, a copy of which is filed
as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
The
Compensation Committee also determined that all of the performance-based criteria for a discretionary cash bonus of $250,000 previously
awarded to Mr. Simpson, which is payable upon the closing of a change of control transaction involving HeartSciences, shall be fully satisfied
upon the consummation of the Closing, subject to Mr. Simpson’s continued employment through the Closing. Upon the consummation of
the Closing, HeartSciences will promptly pay such cash bonus to Mr. Simpson.
In
addition, the Compensation Committee approved a discretionary cash bonus of $50,000 to Danielle
Watson, HeartSciences’ current Chief Financial Officer, of which up to $30,000 is payable after the filing by Parent of the
Proxy Statement (as defined below) relating to the Transactions and $20,000 of which is payable immediately upon the Closing, in each
case as determined by HeartSciences’ then current Chief Executive Officer and/or any member of the Compensation Committee in their
discretion.
2023 Equity Incentive
Plan Amendment
On
June 22, 2026, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Board approved Amendment No. 4 to the Plan to increase the
maximum aggregate number of shares of Parent common stock that may be issued under the Plan by an additional 475,000 shares and the Evergreen
Shares (as provided in such amendment) (the “Plan Amendment”). The Plan Amendment is subject to approval of HeartSciences’
shareholders and shall be considered and voted upon by HeartSciences’ shareholders as part of the proposals to be submitted to
HeartSciences’ shareholders in connection with Merger Agreement.
2
Director and Officer
Appointments
As
previously disclosed, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement and subject to the Closing, (i) HeartSciences will take
all necessary action to increase the size of the Board as directed by Seller and appoint the individuals determined by Seller prior to
the Closing to the Board effective as of the Effective Time, (ii) it is expected that Andrew Simpson and David Wells, each a current
member of the Board, shall remain on the Board after the Closing, and (iii) Andrea Childs will be named Chief Executive Officer and Erik
Ellingson will be named Chief Financial Officer of HeartSciences, respectively, of HeartSciences, in each case, effective as of the Effective
Time. On June 22, 2026, in connection with the Transactions and in each case subject to the Closing and effective as of the Effective
Time, the Board approved (w) the increase of the size of the Board from five to nine directors to accommodate the future appointment
of directors to be determined by Seller, (x) for Ms. Childs to be elected as a director to fill one of the newly created director vacancies
to serve until the earlier of her resignation, death, removal from office, or she is otherwise disqualified from serving as a member
of the Board, (y) for Ms. Childs to be appointed as the new Chief Executive Officer of HeartSciences to replace Mr. Simpson, HeartSciences’
current Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, and (z) for Mr. Ellingson to be appointed as the new Chief Financial
Officer of HeartSciences to replace Ms. Watson, HeartSciences’ current Chief Financial Officer. Ms. Childs’ and Mr. Ellingson’s
biographies and other information required by Items 5.02(c) and 5.02(d) of Form 8-K will be included in the Proxy Statement to be filed
by HeartSciences with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report includes
forward-looking statements, which statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Examples of forward-looking statements, include,
but are not limited to, statements relating to the timing and completion of the Transactions and the expected management of HeartSciences.
Forward-looking statements
are not statements of historical fact, but instead represent management’s expectations, estimates, and projections regarding future
events based on certain material factors and assumptions at the time the statement was made. While considered reasonable by HeartSciences
as of the date of this Current Report, such statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors
that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstances
that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the Merger Agreement; the possibility that the Transactions
do not close when expected or at all because the conditions to closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, including the failure
to timely obtain stockholder approval for the Transactions from HeartSciences’ stockholders, if at all; and other factors that
may affect future results of Fortitude or HeartSciences. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described
above can be found in HeartSciences’ most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025 and other documents
subsequently filed by HeartSciences with the SEC.
HeartSciences cautions investors
not to place considerable reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this Current Report. Investors are encouraged to read
HeartSciences’ filings with the SEC, available at www.sec.gov, for a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties. The
forward-looking statements in this Current Report speak only as of the date of this document, and HeartSciences undertakes no obligation
to update or revise any of these statements. HeartSciences’ business is subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, including
those referenced above. Investors, potential investors, and others should give careful consideration to these risks and uncertainties.

by and between HeartSciences Inc. (fka Heart Test Laboratories, Inc.), a Texas corporation (the “Company”), and Andrew

and
WHEREAS,
the Parties now desire to amend the Employment Agreement as set forth herein.
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and conditions contained herein, and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound
hereby, agree as follows:
Section
1. Amendments to the Employment Agreement.
(a) Section
4.6(a) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
““Constructive
Termination” shall mean: (i) a material reduction in Employee’s duties and, responsibilities without
Employee’s prior written consent; (ii) an action by the Employer which undermines or renders unfeasible the Employee’s
ability to undertake or fulfill his role in an effective manner; (iii) any breach by Employer of any of the material terms of,
or the failure to perform any material covenant contained in, this Agreement; (iv) a material reduction in Employee’s
compensation without Employee’s prior written consent; or (v) a material adverse change to Employee’s working
arrangements as in effect immediately prior to such change. Notwithstanding the above, an event listed in (i) – (v) of this
paragraph will not constitute a Constructive Termination unless the Employee has provided written notice to the Company of the
circumstances which constitute a Constructive Termination within thirty (30) days of the initial occurrence of such event, the
Company has had at least thirty (30) days from the date on which such notice is provided to cure such circumstances, and the
Employee terminates his employment within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such cure period. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, no event or circumstance arising out of, or in connection with, the Closing or the transactions contemplated by the
Merger Agreement or any agreement or transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall constitute a Constructive Termination
for purposes of this Agreement. In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason or no reason, or the Closing
otherwise fails to occur for any reason or no reason, this definition of Constructive Termination shall be null and void ab initio
and of no further force or effect, and the terms of the original Employment Agreement shall continue to apply.”
(b) Section

““Just
Cause” shall mean (i) Employee’s conviction of a felony or commission of any act of fraud, moral turpitude or dishonesty,
(ii) an intentional, material violation by Employee of a statutory or fiduciary duty not corrected within ten days after written notice
from Employer, (iii) any material breach by Employee of any of the terms or conditions of, or the failure to perform any material covenant
contained in, this Agreement and Employee does not cure such breach or failure within ten days following written notice from Employer;
provided, however, that Employee will not be entitled to cure any breach or failure under this subclause (iii) more than one time in
any consecutive three (3) month period, or (iv) the violation by Employee of reasonable instructions or policies established by Employer
with respect to the operation of its business and affairs or Employee’s failure to carry out the reasonable instructions of the
Board of Directors, in each case with any such instruction or policy not causing a material adverse change to Employee’s working
arrangements as in effect immediately prior to the establishment of such instruction or policy, and following notice thereof from Employer
to Employee, Employee does not cure any such violation or failure within ten days following written notice from Employer; provided, however,
that Employee will not be entitled to cure any breach or failure under this subclause (iv) more than one time in any consecutive three
(3) month period.”
(c) Effective
as of the Closing (as defined below), Section 3 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Unless
earlier terminated pursuant to Section 4 below, the Term of this Agreement shall commence as of the date of the closing (the “Closing”)
of the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 22, 2026, by and among the Company, Cordis
Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company, Fortitude Mining Holdings,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Fortitude Mining HoldCo, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Merger Agreement”),
and shall continue for one (1) year thereafter; provided, however, that the Term shall automatically renew for an additional one-year
period at the end of the original one-year term and any additional one-year term, unless either Party gives written notice to the other
Party, at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the applicable term, of such Party’s termination of this Agreement at the
end of the applicable term. As used herein, “Term” shall mean the original term and any additional renewal term(s).”
Section
2. Miscellaneous.

for the amendments expressly set forth in this Section 1, the text of the Employment Agreement shall remain unchanged and
in full force and effect.

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”), dated and effective as of June 22, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), by and between
HeartSciences Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), and Andrew Simpson (the
“Grantee” or “Employee”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Grantee is an
employee of the Company, and the Company has entered into that certain Employment Agreement with the Grantee, dated and effective as of
April 5, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Employment Agreement, dated and effective as of June 22, 2026 (as amended, the “Employment

WHEREAS, the parties hereto
desire to memorialize in this Agreement the grant of shares of its Common Stock for the reasons set forth above on the terms set forth

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Grant
of Shares. The Company hereby grants to the Grantee four hundred twenty five thousand (425,000) shares of Common Stock
(the “Shares”), under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, modified or restated from time to time,
the “Plan”), which Shares shall be issued on and effective as of the Effective Date and shall thereafter vest (such
vested Shares, the “Vested Shares”) subject to the satisfaction of all of the following conditions with respect to
the applicable portion of the Shares (the “Conditions”): (i) occurrence of the Closing of the Transaction (each term
as defined below); and (ii)(x) one-fourth (1/4th) of the Shares shall vest on the three (3) month anniversary of the Closing
Date (the “Initial Vesting Date”) and (y) thereafter, one-fourth (1/4th) of the Shares shall vest on each
subsequent three (3) month anniversary of the Initial Vesting Date (each an “Additional Initial Vesting Date” and together
with the Initial Vesting Date, the “Vesting Dates”), such that all of the Shares shall fully vest on the one (1) year
anniversary of the Closing Date, in each case provided that the Employee is continuously employed in any capacity by the Company or any
of its subsidiaries from the Closing Date through each applicable Vesting Date (except as otherwise provided below). Notwithstanding the
foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, if the Employee is terminated or otherwise let go
by the Company or any of its subsidiaries without Just Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or if the Employment Agreement
is terminated by the Company without Just Cause, or if the Employment Agreement is terminated by Employee for Constructive Termination,
then all of the Shares shall fully vest immediately as of such date of Employee’s termination or cessation of services or the expiration
or termination of the Employment Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that (A) no acceleration shall occur if the
Employee’s employment is terminated for Just Cause or for Excessive Absence (as defined in the Employment Agreement), in which case
any unvested Shares shall be forfeited and returned to the Company for cancellation and (B) if the Employee voluntarily resigns or otherwise
voluntarily departs (other than as a result of any termination of the Employment Agreement by Employee for Constructive Termination or
the expiration of the Employment Agreement) from the Company, such voluntary resignation or voluntary termination (other than as a result
of any termination by Employee for Constructive Termination or the expiration of the Employment Agreement) shall not be deemed to satisfy
this requirement with respect to the applicable Vesting Date and the applicable portion of the Shares shall not vest. The Employee shall
become the record owner of the Shares on the Effective Date, provided, that if all of the Conditions are not satisfied with respect to
the applicable portion of the Shares as provided herein, except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable portion of the Shares shall
not vest and shall not become Vested Shares, in which case the Employee shall return all of the unvested Shares to the Company for cancellation
(including, without limitation, be obligated to return any certificate(s) representing his unvested Shares to the Company), the Employee
shall provide to the Company and its transfer agent such documents as they shall reasonably request to cancel such unvested Shares and
such unvested Shares shall be deemed automatically canceled and of no further force or effect, all without any further action by the Employee
or the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event all of the Conditions are satisfied, all of the Shares shall immediately become
fully vested upon the satisfaction of the Conditions, provided that occurs on or prior to the eighteen (18)-month anniversary of the Closing
Date. All share amounts contained in this Agreement are subject to proportionate adjustment for stock splits, stock combinations and other
similar recapitalizations applicable to the Company; provided, however, that no adjustment to increase the number of Shares shall be made
pursuant to this provision in connection with, or as a result of, the Closing or the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
“Closing Date” shall mean the closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by that certain
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Cordis Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Fortitude Mining Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Seller”), and Fortitude Mining HoldCo, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary
of Seller (collectively, the “Transaction”).

2. Voting.
The Grantee shall not be permitted to vote any Shares which are not Vested Shares.
(f) Change
of Control. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement) other than as a result of the Closing of
the Transaction, 100% of any unvested Shares shall immediately become fully vested.
3. Restriction
Against Transfer.
(a) Federal
Law Restrictions on Transfer. The Grantee hereby acknowledges that in addition to the restrictions imposed by subsection 4(b)
below, the following restrictions also apply with respect to the Shares: (i) the Shares held by the Grantee must be held indefinitely
unless registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or unless, in the opinion of counsel to
the Grantee, which opinion and counsel is acceptable to the Company, an exemption from such registration is available; (ii) exemption
from registration may not be available or may not permit the Grantee to transfer Shares in the amounts or at the times proposed by the
Grantee; (iii) the Grantee has been advised that Rule 144 promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
under the Act (“Rule 144”), which provides for certain limited, routine sales of unregistered securities through brokers,
requires that the Shares be held and fully paid for within the meaning of Rule 144 for a minimum of six (6) months, and possibly longer,
before they may be resold under Rule 144, unless registered under the Act; (iv) the Company is under no obligation to furnish the
Grantee any information or opinions to sell any of the Shares under Rule 144; and (v) in reliance upon the representations of the
Grantee set forth in Section 6 below, the Company has not registered the Shares with the SEC under the Act as of the Effective Date.
(b) No
Transfer of Unvested or Vested Shares. The Grantee agrees that he will not transfer, assign, hypothecate, or in any way dispose
of any of the Shares, or any right or interest therein, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or by gift or otherwise, until such
Shares fully vest and the expiration of the restrictions imposed by this Agreement except by will or the laws of descent and distribution
with respect to any Vested Shares and subject to Grantee’s and such transferee’s compliance with applicable securities laws
(a “Permitted Transfer”). Any purported transfer in violation of any provision of this Agreement shall be void and
not effective and shall not operate to transfer any interest or title to the purported transferee.
4. Rights
as Shareholder; Dividends.
(a) The
Grantee or any transferee in a Permitted Transfer shall be the record owner of the Shares until such Shares are sold or otherwise disposed
of or if all of the Conditions are not satisfied with respect to the applicable portion of the Shares; provided, however, that the Shares
shall not be entitled to the right to vote such Shares or receive any dividends or other distributions paid until any such Shares become
Vested Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any dividends or other distributions shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability
as the Vested Shares with respect to which they were paid.
3
(b) The
Company may issue stock certificates or evidence any Shares by using a restricted book entry account with the Company’s transfer
agent. Upon request, the Company will deliver to the Grantee, or any transferee in a Permitted Transfer, as soon as reasonably practicable
following such request, a notice of issuance with respect to any unvested Shares or Vested Shares.
(c) If
the Grantee forfeits any rights he has under this Agreement in accordance with this Agreement, the Grantee shall, on the date of such
forfeiture, no longer have any rights as a shareholder with respect to the applicable Shares and shall no longer be entitled to receive
dividends on such Shares.
5. Representations
of Employee. Employee represents and warrants to the Company that:
(a) Employee
acknowledges and understands that (i) the issuance of the Shares will not be registered under the Act, or any other applicable securities
laws; (ii) the issuance of the Shares is intended to be exempt from registration under the Act and any other applicable securities laws
by virtue of certain exemptions thereunder, including Section 4(2) of the Act and regulations promulgated thereunder, and, therefore,
the Shares cannot be resold unless registered under the Act and any other applicable securities laws or unless an exemption from registration
is available; (iii) the Company and its advisors will rely on the representations and warranties of Employee contained in this Section
for purposes of determining whether the issuance of the Shares is exempt from registration under the Act and any other applicable securities
laws; (iv) the Shares will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the Act; and (v) Employee is acquiring the Shares
solely for Employee’s own account for investment purposes and not with a view toward any distribution, except as permitted under
applicable securities laws. In this connection, Employee represents that Employee is familiar with Rule 144. Employee recognizes (x) the
lack of liquidity of the Shares and restrictions upon transferability thereof (e.g., that the undersigned may not be able to sell or dispose
of them or use them as collateral for loans), and (y) the qualifications and backgrounds of the principals of the Company, among other
matters; and
(b) as
of the date of this Agreement and the date of any issuance of the Shares, Employee (i) has the financial ability to bear the economic
risk of the investment in the Shares, (ii) has adequate means for providing for Employee’s current needs and contingencies, (iii)
has no need for liquidity with respect to the investment in the Shares, (iv) can afford a complete loss of the investment in the Shares
at this time and in the foreseeable future (v) has had ample opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company’s
representatives concerning this investment and to obtain any and all documents requested in order to supplement or verify any of the information
supplied; (vi) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks
of an investment in the Shares and of making an informed investment decision with respect thereto, and (vii) is an “accredited investor”
as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
4
6. Notices.
All notices required or desired to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally served (including by
commercial delivery or courier service) or given by mail or facsimile. Any notice given by mail shall be deemed to have been given
and received when seventy-two (72) hours have elapsed from the time such notice was deposited in the United States mails, certified or
registered and first-class postage prepaid, addressed, if intended to a party to this Agreement, at the address set forth below its signature
or to such other address as such party may have designated by like written notice to each of the other parties from time to time.
7. Refusal
to Transfer. The Company shall not be required: (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold, given away, or
otherwise transferred in violation of any provision set forth in this Agreement; or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord
the right to receive dividends to any purchaser, donee, or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.
8. Restriction
on Certificates.
(a) Legends.
The Company and the Grantee agree that all certificates representing all Shares of the Company which at any time are subject to the provisions
of this Agreement shall have endorsed upon them legends substantially similar to the following:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER SUCH SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR (2) PURSUANT
TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, IN WHICH CASE
THE HOLDER MUST, PRIOR TO SUCH TRANSFER, FURNISH TO THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY, THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED PURSUANT TO
AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (3) IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, AND BASED ON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION
ARE SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT THE PROVISIONS OF REGULATION S HAVE BEEN SATISFIED.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY
THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF, AND ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN VESTING REQUIREMENTS AS SET FORTH
IN, THAT CERTAIN RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT, BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER HEREOF, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY
OF THE COMPANY.
(b) Stop
Transfer Instructions. The Grantee agrees that in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the
Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, with respect to such certificates
or instruments and, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.
5
9. Code Section 83(b)
Election. Grantee acknowledges that he has been informed and is aware of the following income tax consequences resulting from
the receipt and vesting of the Shares:
(a) Grantee
will be taxed on the fair market value of the Shares as and when the restrictions lapse in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
and any related agreement (such fair market value determined on such vesting dates), unless Grantee files an election pursuant to Section
83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code (as amended, the “Code”) (and any similar state tax provisions if applicable).
If such an election is made, Grantee will be taxed currently on the full fair market value of the Shares on the date of their grant.
Any such election must be filed by Grantee with the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, the proper state taxing authorities.
A form of Election under Section 83(b) is attached hereto. GRANTEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS HIS, HER OR ITS SOLE RESPONSIBILITY
AND NOT THE COMPANY’S (i) TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT TO MAKE ANY ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, AND (ii) IF GRANTEE
DETERMINES TO MAKE ANY SUCH ELECTION, TO TIMELY FILE SUCH ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, EVEN IF GRANTEE ASKS THE COMPANY OR
ITS REPRESENTATIVE TO MAKE THIS FILING ON HIS, HER OR ITS BEHALF. Grantee must obtain its own counsel to determine whether
Grantee is eligible to make an 83(b) election and Grantee’s compliance with all tax reporting obligations relating to the Agreement,
and the Company makes no representations with regard to any reporting obligations of the Grantee including the filing of an 83(b) election
or the form attached hereto. Company makes no representation or guarantees as to the legalities of the 83(b) election and any statements
expressed herein regarding the election.
(b) Grantee
shall notify the Company immediately in writing in the event Grantee makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (or any successor
provision) or corresponding provisions of state or local tax laws with respect to the Shares.
10. General
Provisions.
(a) Severability.
In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction,
the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby. This
Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Employment Agreement and the terms thereof shall be incorporated herein. In the event that
there is any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Employment Agreement, the terms of the
Employment Agreement shall govern.
(b) Construction.

of the person or persons, firm or firms, corporation or corporations may require.
(c) Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Arbitration.
(i) This
Agreement shall be deemed to be made in, and in all respects, shall be interpreted, construed, and governed by and in accordance with,
the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict of laws rules or provisions. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
submits to the jurisdiction of all state and federal courts sitting in the City of Dallas, State of Texas, the venue of the City of Dallas,
State of Texas and all actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement that are not resolved by arbitration under
subsection (ii) hereof shall be heard and determined in any state or federal court located in the City of Dallas, State of Texas.
6
(ii) Any
dispute between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any specific agreements contemplated herein) that
cannot be resolved in thirty (30) days through good faith negotiation and discussion among the parties shall be finally settled by arbitration
administered by the Dallas, Texas office of JAMS (the “Administrator”) in accordance with its then existing commercial
arbitration rules and procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in the City of Dallas, State of Texas, unless otherwise agreed by
the parties in writing. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral
arbitrator (“Arbitrator”) selected in accordance with the rules of the Administrator. The decision or award of the
Arbitrator shall be final, binding and incontestable and may be used as a basis for judgment thereon in any jurisdiction. The arbitration
proceeding and all related documents will be confidential, unless disclosure is required by law. The parties hereby expressly agree to
waive the right to appeal from the decision of the Arbitrator. Accordingly, there shall be no appeal to any court or other authority (government
or private) from the decision of the Arbitrator, and the parties shall not dispute nor question the validity of such decision or award
before any regulatory or other authority in any jurisdiction where enforcement action is taken by the party in whose favor the decision
or award is rendered, except in the case the decision or award was procured by fraud. The Arbitrator shall, within fifteen (15) calendar
days after the conclusion of the arbitration hearing, issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings
and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. Each party shall bear its own costs and
attorneys’ fees, and the parties shall equally bear the fees, costs, and expenses of the Administrator, the Arbitrator and the arbitration
proceedings; provided, however, that the Arbitrator may exercise discretion to award costs, including reasonable and necessary attorneys’
fees, to the prevailing party. The parties consent and submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal
court located in the City of Dallas, State of Texas, to compel arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, to enforce any arbitration
award granted pursuant to this Agreement, including, any award granting equitable or injunctive relief, and to otherwise enforce this
Agreement and carry out the intentions of the parties to resolve all disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement through
arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section will restrict either party from applying to any court of competent
jurisdiction for injunctive relief.

matter contained herein. There are no representations, agreements, arrangements, or understandings, oral or written, between or

to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Format file (“.pdf”) (or in any present or future file format intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance
of a document), or by means of facsimile transmission, constitutes the valid and effective execution and delivery of this Agreement for
all purposes and has the same force and effect for all purposes as the personal delivery of a manually executed counterpart bearing an
original ink signature.
