W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ the Executive to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual obligations hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:

1. RECITALS. The above recitals are incorporated by reference herein and made a part hereof as set forth verbatim.

2. EMPLOYMENT. The Company shall employ the Executive, and the Executive agrees to be so employed, in the capacity of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to serve until the termination of the Executive’s employment as provided herein.

3. COMMENCEMENT. The Executive’s employment on the terms hereunder shall supersede any prior agreements with an effective date of January 1, 2018 (the “Effective Date”), and continue until the termination of the Executive’s employment as provided herein.

4. SERVICES. The Executive shall devote substantially all of the Executive’s business time, attention and effort to the Company’s affairs, including services to be provided by the Company to Second City Capital II Corporation and Second City Real Estate II Corporation under the Administrative Services Agreement dated February 1, 2016, between the Company and Second City Capital II Corporation and Second City Real Estate II Corporation (the “Services Agreement”). The Company further agrees that the Executive may engage in any civic and community activities that the Executive has disclosed to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) provided that such activities do not interfere with the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder. The Executive shall have full authority and responsibility for formulating policies and administering the Company in all respects, subject to the general direction, approval and control of the Board. The Company agrees to nominate the Executive to be a member of the Board and any Executive Committee (or similar committee) of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Executive agree that if the Services Agreement is not extended, the Executive may provide reasonable assistance to the parties to the Services Agreement for legacy assets, but not in the establishment of new funds or investments in new properties and only to the extent such activities do not materially interfere with the Executive’s employment obligations to the Company as determined by the Board.

5. COMPENSATION.

(a) Base Salary. Until the termination of the Executive’s employment as provided herein, the Company shall pay the Executive an annual Base Salary equal to Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000). The Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) shall consult with the Executive at annual intervals and may increase the Executive’s annual Base Salary from time to time as the Committee deems to be appropriate. Such Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s payroll schedule. Any increase in Base Salary shall not serve to limit or reduce any other obligations to the Executive under this Agreement.

(b) Annual Bonus. In addition to the Executive’s annual Base Salary, if, and as approved by, the Committee, in each calendar year until the termination of the Executive’s employment as provided herein, the Executive may have the opportunity to earn an annual performance bonus (“Annual Bonus”). The Annual Bonus shall be earned and payable based upon the achievement of performance goals that are established by the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, in its sole discretion. In the event an Annual Bonus is earned and payable pursuant to this Section 5(b), such bonus shall be paid to the Executive in a single cash payment no later than March 15 of the year after the year to which the bonus relates.

6. BENEFITS. The Company agrees to provide the Executive with the following benefits:

(a) Vacation. The Executive shall be entitled each calendar year to a vacation, during which time the Executive’ compensation shall be paid in full. The time allotted for such vacation shall be an aggregate of four (4) weeks. Subject to the minimum requirements of applicable employment standards laws, vacation time that is not used on or before December 31 each calendar year will be forfeited. In the year the Executive terminates employment, the Executive shall be entitled to receive a prorated paid vacation based upon the amount of time that the Executive has worked during the year of termination. In the event that in the year of termination the Executive has not taken all of the vacation time computed on a prorated basis, the Executive shall be paid, at the Executive’s regular rate of Base Salary, for unused vacation.

(b) Employee Benefits. Until the termination of the Executive’s employment as provided herein, the Executive (and the Executive’s spouse and dependents who satisfy the eligibility requirements) shall be eligible to participate in all Company employee benefit plans in which other executive level employees of the Company and/or the members of their families, as the case may be, are eligible to participate including, but not limited to, any health care, retirement, pension, profit-sharing, insurance, or other plans which may now be in effect or which may hereafter be adopted by the Company. The Company will adopt a long term disability benefit plan or obtain a long term disability insurance policy for the benefit of the Executive and the cost or premium of such plan or policy shall be paid by the Company. The Executive’s participation in and entitlement to any benefits under the plans referenced in this Agreement are subject to the terms of the formal plan documents which may be amended from time to time at the Company’s sole discretion; provided, however, that no plan amendment that adversely affects the Executive’s benefits, entitlements or rights under such plan and that does not apply to all executive level employees who participate in such plan shall be effective as to the Executive without his prior approval.

2

(c) Equity Plan Participation. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in any Company equity incentive plan providing for the grant of restricted stock units, options or other equity awards (the “Plan”) in effect while the Executive is employed by the Company and shall receive awards, in such amounts and subject to such terms, as determined by the Committee. The Company may amend the Plan from time to time at its sole discretion; provided, however, that without the Executive’s consent no Plan amendment shall adversely affect the Executive’s rights under any Plan award granted prior to the adoption of the Plan amendment.

(d) Professional Expenses. Until the Executive’s employment is terminated as provided herein, the Company agrees to reimburse the Executive for up to Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500) each calendar year for reasonable professional expenses including professional designation annual dues, professional development course, etc. incurred by the Executive during such calendar year.

7. EXPENSES. The Company recognizes that the Executive will have to incur certain out-of-pocket expenses related to the Executive’s services and the Company’s business, and the Company agrees to promptly reimburse the Executive for all reasonable expenses necessarily incurred by the Executive in the performance of the Executive’s duties to the Company upon presentation of a voucher or documentation indicating the amount and business purposes of any such expenses. These expenses include, but are not limited to, travel, meals and entertainment. Expenses that are reimbursable to the Executive under this Section 7 shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy within 30 days after the Executive has submitted an expense reimbursement request to the Company’s accounting department but in no event later than March 15 following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred.

8. TERMINATION.

(a) Termination by Executive. The Executive may at any time terminate his employment upon giving two weeks’ prior written notice to the Company. Where the Executive gives written notice of termination under this Section 8(a), the Company may at its sole discretion terminate the Executive’s employment as set out under Section 8(c) of this Agreement.

12. CODE SECTION 280G. This Section 12 applies if either the Executive or the Company is subject to the Code. The benefits that the Executive may be entitled to receive under this Agreement and other benefits that the Executive is entitled to receive under other plans, agreements and arrangements (which, together with the benefits provided under this Agreement, are referred to as “Payments”), may constitute Parachute Payments that are subject to Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. As provided in this Section 12, the Parachute Payments will be reduced if, and only to the extent that, a reduction will allow the Executive to receive a greater Net After Tax Amount than the Executive would receive absent a reduction.

The Accounting Firm will first determine the amount of any Parachute Payments that are payable to the Executive. The Accounting Firm also will determine the Net After Tax Amount attributable to the Executive’s total Parachute Payments.

The Accounting Firm will next determine the largest amount of Payments that may be made to the Executive without subjecting the Executive to tax under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Capped Payments”). Thereafter, the Accounting Firm will determine the Net After Tax Amount attributable to the Capped Payments.

The Executive will receive the total Parachute Payments or the Capped Payments, whichever provides the Executive with the higher Net After Tax Amount. If the Executive will receive the Capped Payments, the total Parachute Payments will be adjusted by first reducing the amount of any benefits under this Agreement or any other plan, agreement or arrangement that are not subject to Section 409A of the Code (with the source of the reduction to be directed by the Participant) and then by reducing the amount of any benefits under this Agreement or any other plan, agreement or arrangement that are subject to Section 409A of the Code (with the source of the reduction to be directed by the Participant). The Accounting Firm will notify the Executive and the Company if it determines that the Parachute Payments must be reduced to the Capped Payments and will send the Executive and the Company a copy of its detailed calculations supporting that determination.

As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code at the time that the Accounting Firm makes its determinations under this Section 12, it is possible that amounts will have been paid or distributed to the Executive that should not have been paid

9

or distributed under this Section 12 (“Overpayments”), or that additional amounts should be paid or distributed to the Executive under this Section 12 (“Underpayments”). If the Accounting Firm determines, based on either the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against the Company or the Executive, which assertion the Accounting Firm believes has a high probability of success or controlling precedent or substantial authority, that an Overpayment has been made, the Executive must repay to the Company, without interest; provided, however, that no loan will be deemed to have been made except to the extent permitted by applicable law and no amount will be payable by the Executive to the Company unless, and then only to the extent that, the deemed loan and payment would either reduce the amount on which the Executive is subject to tax under Section 4999 of the Code or generate a refund of tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code. If the Accounting Firm determines, based upon controlling precedent or substantial authority, that an Underpayment has occurred, the Accounting Firm will notify the Executive and the Company of that determination and the amount of that Underpayment will be paid to the Executive promptly by the Company.

For purposes of this Section 12, the term “Accounting Firm” means the independent accounting firm engaged by the Company immediately before the Change in Control. For purposes of this Section 12, the term “Net After Tax Amount” means the amount of any Parachute Payments or Capped Payments, as applicable, net of taxes imposed under Sections 1, 3101(b) and 4999 of the Code and any State or local income taxes applicable to the Executive on the date of payment. The determination of the Net After Tax Amount shall be made using the highest combined effective rate imposed by the foregoing taxes on income of the same character as the Parachute Payments or Capped Payments, as applicable, in effect on the date of payment. For purposes of this Section 12, the term “Parachute Payment” means a payment that is described in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, determined in accordance with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder.

13. CODE SECTION 409A. This Section 13 applies if the Executive is subject to taxation under the Code. This Agreement and the amounts payable and other benefits provided under this Agreement are intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), after giving effect to the exemptions in Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12). This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with Section 409A. If any provision of this Agreement is found not to comply with, or otherwise not be exempt from, the provisions of Section 409A, it shall be modified and given effect, in the sole discretion of the Board and without requiring the Executive’s consent, in such manner as the Board determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with, or to effectuate an exemption from, Section 409A; provided, however, that in exercising its discretion under this Section 13, the Board shall modify this Agreement in the least restrictive manner necessary and without reducing any payment or benefit due under this Agreement. Each payment under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A.

With respect to any reimbursement of expenses of, or any provision of in-kind benefits to, the Executive, as specified under this Agreement, such reimbursement of expenses or provision of in-kind benefits shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in

10

any other taxable year, except for any medical reimbursement arrangement providing for the reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code; (ii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made as specified in this Agreement and in no event later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefit shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

If a payment obligation under this Agreement arises on account of a Change in Control or the Executive’s termination of employment and such payment obligation constitutes “deferred compensation” (as defined under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(1), after giving effect to the exemptions in Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12)), it shall be payable only if the Change in Control constitutes a Control Change Event or after the Executive’s Separation from Service, as applicable; provided, however, that if the Executive is a Specified Employee, any such payment that is scheduled to be paid within six months after such Separation from Service shall accrue without interest and shall be paid on the first day of the seventh month beginning after the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service or, if earlier, within fifteen days after the appointment of the personal representative or executor of the Executive’s estate following the Executive’s death.

14. TAX WITHHOLDING. All payments to be made under this Agreement shall be reduced by applicable income and employment tax withholdings.

15. COVENANTS OF THE EXECUTIVE.

During and after the Executive’s employment with the Company and its affiliates, all memoranda, notes, lists, records, property and any other tangible product and documents (and all copies thereof) made, produced or compiled by the Executive or made available to the Executive during his employment concerning the Business of the Company and its affiliates shall be the Company’s property and shall be delivered to the Company at any time on request. Notwithstanding the above, the Executive’s contacts and contact data base shall not be the Company’s property.

(f) Nondisparagement. The Executive agrees that during and after the Executive’s employment with the Company and its affiliates the Executive shall refrain from publishing any oral or written statements about the Company or any of the Company’s directors, equity holders, members, shareholders, managers, officers, employees, consultants, agents or representatives that (i) are slanderous, libelous or defamatory or (ii) place the Company or any of its directors, managers, officers, employees, equity holders, consultants, agents or representatives in a false light before the public..

(g) Rights and Remedies upon Breach. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that any breach by the Executive of any of the provisions of this section 15 (the “Covenants”) would result in irreparable injury and damage for which money damages, would not provide an adequate remedy. Therefore, if the Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any of the Covenants, the Company and its affiliates shall have the right and remedy to have the Covenants specifically enforced (without posting bond and without the need to prove damages) by any court having equity jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the right to an entry against the Executive of restraining orders and injunctions (preliminary, mandatory,

13

temporary and permanent) against violations, threatened or actual, and whether or not then continuing, of such covenants. This right and remedy shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company and its affiliates under law or in equity (including, without limitation, the recovery of damages). The existence of any claim or cause of action by the Executive, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of the Covenants. Subject only to the minimum requirements under applicable employment standards legislation, the Company has the right not to make any payments that remain payable under Section 9 or 10 in the event of a material breach of any of the Covenants after receipt of notice thereof from the Company.

(h) Severability. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Executive has had an opportunity to seek advice of counsel in connection with this Agreement; and that the Covenants are reasonable in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects. If it is determined that any of the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any of the Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions of this Agreement shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.

(i) Duration and Scope of Covenants. If any court or other decision maker of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the Covenants, including, without or any part thereof are unenforceable because of the duration or geographical scope of such provision, then, after such determination has become final and unappealable, the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, shall be reduced so that such provision becomes enforceable and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.

(j) Enforceability of Restrictive Covenants; Jurisdictions. The Company and the Executive intend to and hereby consent to jurisdiction to enforce the Covenants upon the courts of any jurisdiction within the geographical scope of the Covenants. If the courts of any one or more of such jurisdictions hold the Covenants wholly unenforceable by reason of breadth of scope or otherwise it is the intention of the Company and the Executive that such determination not bar or in any way affect the Company’s right, or the right of any of its affiliates, to the relief provided above in the courts of any other jurisdiction within the geographical scope of such Covenants, as to breaches of such Covenants in such other respective jurisdictions, such Covenants as they relate to each jurisdiction’s being, for this purpose, severable, diverse and independent covenants, subject, where appropriate, to the doctrine of res judicata.
