Employee may be eligible to earn a greater bonus amount (up to one hundred percent (100%) of his Base Salary) if actual performance exceeds the Target Bonus Goals For purposes of clarity, the Board may approve individual Target Bonus Goals which, if achieved, will result in some portion of the target bonus being achieved, as determined by the Board in its’ sole discretion. The Board may also, in its’ sole discretion, approve discretionary bonuses in any amount at any time.

Except as otherwise specifically stated herein, Employee must be employed by or providing services to the Company on the date bonus payments are made to be eligible to receive any target or additional bonus amounts (Employee will not receive any target or additional bonus amounts if Employee’s service terminates, for any reason, prior to the date either such bonus amount is paid).

Employee’s restrictive covenants as set forth in this Agreement shall, following the Merger Transaction, be applicable to all companies included in the Company Group.

Specific Performance. The Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions on his activities contained in Section 12C (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”) are necessary for the reasonable protection of the Company and are a material inducement to the Company entering into this Agreement. Employee further agrees and acknowledges that the services he provides to TuHURA during his employment are of a special and unique character and place his in a position of trust and confidence with respect to the Confidential Information, Confidential Documents, customers, and employees of TuHURA. The Employee further acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of any such provisions would cause irreparable harm to the Company for which there is no adequate remedy at law. The Employee agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provisions of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company may, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have obtain a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction or injunctions and temporary restraining order or orders to prevent actual or threatened breaches of such provisions and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions thereof. Without regard to whether TuHURA seeks or is granted any such equitable relief, TuHURA will not be prejudiced in its right to seek and be awarded damages for any breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants. Employee understands that the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and will be in addition to any rights and remedies otherwise available to TuHURA under applicable law.

No Running of Covenant During Breach. Employee further agrees and acknowledges that should legal proceedings be initiated by TuHURA to enforce any of the Restrictive Covenant contained in Section 12C, the duration of the Restrictive Covenants, will start on the date of the entry of an order granting TuHURA injunctive, monetary or other relief from Employee’s actual or threatened breach of said covenant and will remain in effect for the succeeding two (2) years. Employee acknowledges that the purpose and effect of the Restrictive Covenants would be frustrated by measuring the duration of that covenant from the date of the end of Employee’s employment with the Company if Employee fails to honor the covenant until directed to do so by court order at a later date.

Forfeiture of Payments. In the event that it is determined that the Employee has breached any of the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants, then the Company may require the Employee to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by him as a result of any transaction constituting a breach of any of the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants (the “Benefits”) and the Employee agrees to account for and pay over to the Company any such Benefits.
