This memorandum shall reflect the understanding between you (the “Executive”) and IZEA Worldwide, Inc.

However, all other terms and conditions of your Employment Agreement remain unchanged. Executive consents and agrees to this Modification and represents that the reduction in salary is not a breach of the Employment Agreement.

Further, this change does not affect salary earned prior to April 6, 2020.
