The Base Salary will be reviewed annually and may be adjusted upward (but not downward) by the CEO and the Compensation Committee in its discretion.

(b)    Annual Bonus. For each calendar year ending during the Employment Period beginning with calendar year 2018, the Executive will be eligible to earn an “Annual Bonus,” provided that the Executive remains employed with a Company Entity through the payment date for such Annual Bonus (except as otherwise provided herein). The Executive’s target Annual Bonus opportunity for calendar year 2018 is $2.5 million dollars ($2,500,000), subject to proration for the amount of the calendar year in which the Executive is employed.

(c)    Annual Equity Awards.

The Annual Equity Grant shall be granted in the form, at the same time and on otherwise substantially the same terms and conditions as annual equity grants are made to the Parent’s other senior executive officers (pursuant to a grant award agreement in respect thereof to be established by the Parent).

(d)    Sign-on Bonus. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.1(d), the Executive shall be entitled to the following cash and equity benefits (the benefits in Section 3.1(d)(i) and Section 3.1(d)(ii) collectively, the “Sign-on Bonus”):

(i)    The Company will pay to the Executive a one-time sign-on bonus in the amount of $1.5 million dollars ($1,500,000) on the first payroll date following the start date (the “Cash Sign-on Bonus”). The Cash Sign-on Bonus will be paid in accordance with regular payroll for employees of the Company (including without limitation, payroll tax, other tax withholding and other allowances) on the regular payroll date for employees of the Company next following such date. In the event that the employment of the Executive is terminated for Cause by the Company or for any reason by the Executive (including without limitation by death or disability) at any time prior to July 1, 2019, within sixty (60) days of the termination date, the Executive will reimburse the Company for the Cash Sign-on Bonus in full, which may be effected through reduction in severance, if any, or other offset against sums owing.

(ii)    The Company will grant to the Executive an award of restricted share units with respect to such number of Class A Shares and Class C Shares [based upon an aggregate value to be equal to $2.5 million as of the start date] (the “Equity Sign-on Bonus”) in a ratio of 1:2, Class A : Class C. The Equity Sign-on Bonus shall vest in full on the one-year anniversary of the Start Date, subject to the Executive’s continuous employment with the Company through such date.

The number of shares granted shall be determined by the Company using the average market closing prices of the Class A Shares and the Class C Shares (respectively) for the ten (10) trading days ending two (2) trading days prior to the Start Date.

(iii)    The Sign-on Bonus is intended to recompense the Executive for cash and equity make-whole compensation specified in the November 5, 2017 offer letter to him by his employer immediately prior to this Agreement, which he is foregoing as a result of entering into this Agreement (the “Make-Whole Compensation Amount”). In the event that the settlement arrangements with such employer for his voluntary termination do in fact provide for payments of, or forgiveness of recoupment of, all or a portion of the Make-Whole Compensation to the Executive notwithstanding the termination, the Executive agrees to notify the Company with the details of such payments or forgiveness of recoupment and the Equity Sign-On

Bonus will be retroactively adjusted downward in an equal amount to reflect the receipt of the Make-Whole Compensation through offset or repayment by the Executive to the Company, provided that in no event will the downward adjustment exceed $2.4 million, leaving the Executive with a minimum of $100,000 of Equity Sign-on Bonus. The Cash Sign-on Bonus is not subject to any adjustment.

Section 3.2    Withholding. The Company and the Parent will have the right to withhold from payments otherwise due and owing to the Executive, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, and/or local income and payroll taxes (and any UK or foreign taxes), any amount required to be deducted under any employee benefit plan in which the Executive participates or as required to satisfy any valid lien or court order.

The Executive acknowledges that all of the restrictions in this Article VI are reasonable in all respects, including duration, territory and scope of activity. The Executive agrees that the restrictions contained in this Article VI shall be construed as separate agreements independent of any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Executive and any Company Entity. The Executive agrees that the existence of any claim or cause of action by the Executive against any Company Entity, whether

predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Parent or the Company of the covenants and restrictions in this Article VI. The Executive agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this Article VI are a material part of the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement for which the Parent and the Company have agreed to compensate the Executive as provided in this Agreement. The Restricted Period referenced above shall be tolled on a day‑for‑day basis for each day during which the Executive violates the provisions of the subparagraphs above in any respect, so that the Executive is restricted from engaging in the activities prohibited by the subparagraphs for the full period.

Section 6.5    Works Made for Hire.

(a)    General. The Executive recognizes and agrees that all original works of authorship, and all inventions, discoveries, improvements and other results of creative thinking or discovery by the Executive during the Employment Period, whether the result of individual efforts or in acts in concert with others, arising in the scope of the Executive’s employment, utilizing in any way any of the Confidential Information or property of any Company Entity, or otherwise relating to the business of any Company Entity, are and shall be “works made for hire” within the meaning of the United States copyright laws, to the extent applicable thereto, and in all events shall be the sole and exclusive property of a Company Entity (collectively, the “Created Works”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Created Works shall include all computer software, written materials, business processes, compilations, programs, improvements, inventions, notes, copyrightable works made, fixed, conceived, or acquired by the Executive in the scope of the Executive’s employment, utilizing in any way any of the Confidential Information, or otherwise relating to the business of any Company Entity. No part of the definition of Created Works is intended to exclude the Created Works from being included among the items constituting Confidential Information.

(b)    Assignment of Created Works. The Executive hereby fully assigns to the Parent or its designee all of the Executive’s right, title and interest in and to the Created Works and all aspects thereof, including without limitation all rights to renewals, extensions, causes of action, reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute, display, perform, transfer, make, use and sell. The Executive will, from time to time during the Employment Period and thereafter, and at any time upon the request of the Parent or its designee, execute and deliver any documents, agreements, certificates or other instruments affirming, giving effect to or otherwise perfecting the Parent’s or its designee’s rights in the Created Works and will provide such cooperation as the Parent or its designee shall reasonably request in connection with the protection, exploitation or perfection of its rights therein anywhere in the world.

(c)    Power of Attorney. If the Parent or its designee is unable, after reasonable effort, to secure the Executive’s signature on any application for patent, copyright, trademark or other analogous registration or other documents regarding any legal protection relating to a Created Work, whether because of the Executive’s physical or mental incapacity or for any other reason whatsoever, the Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Parent and its duly authorized designees, officers and agents as the Executive’s agent and

attorney‑in‑fact, to act for and in the Executive’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such application or applications or other documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patent, copyright or trademark registrations or any other legal protection thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by the Executive.

(d)    Disclosure of Created Works. The Executive will promptly and without reservation fully disclose any Created Works to the Parent or its designee both during the Employment Period and thereafter.

Section 6.6    Intangible Property. The Executive will not at any time during or after the Employment Period have or claim any right, title or interest in any trade name, trademark, or copyright belonging to or used by any Company Entity, it being the intention of the Parties that the Executive shall, and hereby does, recognize that the Company Entities now have and shall hereafter have and retain the sole and exclusive rights in any and all such trade names, trademarks and copyrights. The Executive shall cooperate fully with any Company Entity during the Employment Period and thereafter in the securing of trade name, patent, trademark or copyright protection or other similar rights in the United States and in foreign countries and shall give evidence and testimony and execute and deliver to the Company Entity all papers reasonably requested by it in connection therewith; provided, however that the Company shall reimburse the Executive for reasonable expenses related thereto.

Section 7.1    409A Limitations. To the extent that any payment to the Executive constitutes a “deferral of compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code (a “409A Payment”), and such payment is triggered by the Executive’s termination of employment for any reason other than death, then such 409A Payment shall not commence unless and until the Executive has experienced a “separation from service,” as defined in Treasury Regulation 1.409A‑1(h) (“Separation from Service”). Furthermore, if on the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service, the Executive is a “specified employee,” as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A‑1(i), as determined from time to time by the Company, then such 409A Payment shall be made to the Executive on the earlier of (i) the date that is six (6) months after the Executive’s Separation from Service; or (ii) the date of the Executive’s death. The 409A Payments under this Agreement that would otherwise be made during such period shall be aggregated and paid in one (1) lump sum, without interest, on the first business day following the end of the six (6) month period or following the date of the Executive’s death, whichever is earlier, and the balance of the 409A Payments, if any, shall be paid in accordance with the applicable payment schedule provided in this Agreement. The intent of the parties hereto is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder. Accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith or exempt therefrom. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “paid within sixty (60) days”) following the Executive’s termination of employment, such payment shall commence following the Executive’s Separation

from Service and the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. With respect to reimbursements (whether such reimbursements are for business expenses or, to the extent permitted under the Company’s policies, other expenses) and/or in‑kind benefits, in each case, that constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, each of the following shall apply: (x) no reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Executive during any taxable year shall be made after the last day of the following taxable year of the Executive; (y) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in‑kind benefits provided, during a taxable year of the Executive shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in‑kind benefits to be provided, to the Executive in any other taxable year; and (z) the right to reimbursement of such expenses or in‑kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Section 7.2    280G Matters.

(a)    Gross‑Up Waiver. The Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that he shall have no rights to any additional payments intended to make the Executive whole for any taxes relating to “parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code), including without limitation excise taxes imposed by Section 4999 of the Code and any related federal, state or local taxes (including without limitation any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes) under any plans, agreements or arrangements, including the Grant Award Agreements by and between the Executive and the Parent and/or the Company.

(b)    Potential Reduction in Payments. The following shall apply with respect to all plans, agreements and arrangements applicable to the Executive and shall supersede any provisions in such plans, agreements or arrangements relating to the reduction of payments or benefits in connection with Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code.

(i)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if any portion of the payments or benefits under this Agreement, or under any other agreement with the Executive or plan of the Company or its affiliates (in the aggregate, “Total Payments”), would constitute an “excess parachute payment” and would, but for this Section 7.2, result in the imposition on the Executive of an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Total Payments to be made to the Executive shall either be (i) delivered in full, or (ii) delivered in such reduced amount in the manner determined in accordance with Section 7.2(b)(ii) so that no portion of such Total Payments would be subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) results in the receipt by the Executive of the greatest benefit on an after-tax basis (taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax). The determinations with respect to this Section 7.2(b) shall be made by an independent auditor (the “Auditor”) paid by the Company. The Auditor shall be a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm or other professional organization that is a certified public accounting firm recognized as an expert in determinations and calculations for purposes of

Section 280G of the Code that is selected by the Parent or the Company for purposes of making the applicable determinations hereunder.

(ii)    If the Auditor determines that payments or benefits included in the Total Payments shall be reduced or eliminated, such reduction or elimination shall be accomplished by applying the following principles, in order: (1) the payment or benefit with the higher ratio of the parachute payment value to present economic value (determined using reasonable actuarial assumptions) shall be reduced or eliminated before a payment or benefit with a lower ratio; (2) the payment or benefit with the later possible payment date shall be reduced or eliminated before a payment or benefit with an earlier payment date; and (3) cash payments shall be reduced prior to non-cash benefits; provided that if the foregoing order of reduction or elimination would violate Section 409А of the Code, then the reduction shall be made pro rata among the payments or benefits included in the Total Payments (on the basis of the relative present value of the parachute payments).

(iii)    It is possible that after the determinations and selections made pursuant to this Section 7.2, the Executive will receive Total Payments that are, in the aggregate, either more or less than the amount provided under this Section 7.2 (hereafter referred to as an “Excess Payment” or “Underpayment,” respectively). If it is established, pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal Revenue Service proceeding that has been finally and conclusively resolved, that an Excess Payment has been made, then the Executive shall promptly pay an amount equal to the Excess Payment to the Company (or the Parent), together with interest on such amount at the applicable federal rate (as defined in and under Section 1274(d) of the Code) from the date of the Executive’s receipt of such Excess Payment until the date of such payment. In the event that it is determined by the Auditor upon request by a Party that an Underpayment has occurred, the Company shall promptly pay an amount equal to the Underpayment to the Executive, together with interest on such amount at the applicable federal rate from the date such amount would have been paid to the Executive had the provisions of this Section 7.2 not been applied until the date of such payment.

(iv)    The Company agrees that, in connection with making determinations under this Section 7.2, it shall instruct the Auditor to take into account the value of any reasonable compensation for services to be rendered by the Executive in connection with making determinations with respect to Section 280G and/or Section 4999 of the Code, including the non‑competition provisions applicable to the Executive under Article VI of this Agreement and any other non‑competition provisions that may apply to the Executive, and the Company and the Parent agree to fully cooperate in the valuation of any such services, including any non‑competition provisions.

Section 7.3    Legal Fees. The Company agrees to pay as incurred (within thirty (30) business days following the Company’s receipt of an invoice from counsel), all reasonable legal

fees and expenses that the Executive incurs in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, but only up to a maximum amount of $20,000.

Section 8.1    Waiver or Modification. Any waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as, or to be, construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision of this Agreement. The failure of a Party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that Party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any part of it may be waived, changed or terminated orally, and any waiver, amendment or modification must be in writing and signed by each of the Parties.

Section 8.2    Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and permitted assigns. The rights and obligations of the Executive under this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of the Executive. The Company may assign this Agreement to a successor in interest, including the purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, provided that the Company shall remain liable hereunder unless the assignee purchased all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Executive may not assign any of the Executive’s duties under this Agreement.

Section 8.3    Mitigation/Offset. The Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment or to otherwise mitigate the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, and there shall be no offset against amounts or benefits due to the Executive under this Agreement or otherwise on account of any claim the Company or its affiliates may have against the Executive or any remuneration or other benefit earned or received by the Executive after such termination.

Section 8.4    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall, when executed, be deemed to be an original and all of which shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument; and all signatures need not appear on any one Counterpart.

Section 8.5    Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement will be governed and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflicts of law rules, which might result in the application of laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute, controversy or claim, whether based on contract, tort or statute, between the Parties arising out of or relating to or in connection with this Agreement, or in any amendment, modification hereof (including, without limitation, any dispute, controversy or claim as to the validity, interpretation, enforceability or breach of this Agreement or any amendment or modification hereof) will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in the State of Colorado. The parties acknowledge that venue in such courts is proper and that those courts possess personal jurisdiction over them, to which the Parties’ consent. It is agreed that service of process may be effectuated pursuant to Section 8.8 of this Agreement.

Section 8.6    Dispute Resolution. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other than claims entitling the claimant to injunctive relief or claims or disputes arising from a violation or alleged violation by the Executive of the provisions of Article VI shall be settled exclusively by final and binding arbitration in Denver, Colorado in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator

shall be selected by mutual agreement of the parties, if possible. If the parties fail to reach agreement upon appointment of an arbitrator within thirty (30) days following receipt by one party of the other party’s notice of desire to arbitrate, the arbitrator shall be selected from a panel or panels of persons submitted by the AAA. The selection process shall be that which is set forth in the AAA Employment Arbitration Rules then prevailing. The costs of the arbitrator shall be borne by both parties equally; provided that each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees. Either party may appeal the arbitration award and judgment thereon and, in actions seeking to vacate an award, the standard of review to be applied to the arbitrator’s findings of fact and conclusions of law will be the same as that applied by an appellate court reviewing a decision of a trial court sitting without a jury. This agreement to arbitrate shall not preclude the parties from engaging in voluntary, non-binding settlement efforts including mediation.

Section 8.7    Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Grant Award Agreements with respect to equity awards and the Secondment Agreement) contains the entire understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all other prior written or oral agreements, understandings or arrangements regarding the subject matter hereof. The Parties each acknowledge that, in entering into this Agreement, such Party does not rely on any statements or representations not contained in this Agreement or the Secondment Agreement or in the Grant Award Agreements.

Section 8.8    Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction and such invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified by such court so that it is enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 8.9    Notices. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all notices and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and delivery thereof shall be deemed to have been made (i) three (3) business days following the date when such notice shall have been deposited in first class mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or any comparable or superior postal or air courier service then in effect, or (ii) on the date transmitted by hand delivery to the Party entitled to receive the same, at the address indicated below or at such other address as such Party shall have specified by written notice to the other Parties given in accordance with this Section 8.9:

If to the Executive:    At the address then on file with the Company.

Section 8.10    No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Section 5.1(c) in the event of the Executive’s death or Disability, this Agreement does not create, and shall not be construed as creating, any rights enforceable by any person not a party to this Agreement.

Section 8.11    Survival. The covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the termination of the employment period and the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed and delivered by the Parties as of the first date written above, but effective as of the Effective Date.
