Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Agreement for Acquisition of Trees Assets

Asset Purchase. On April 18, 2021, General Cannabis Corp (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Liquidation among the Company, Trees Acquisition Corp., a newly-formed indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Trees Acquisition”), and TDM, LLC and Station 2, LLC (“Colorado Sellers”), as well as a separate Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Liquidation among the Company, Trees Acquisition, and Trees Waterfront, LLC, Trees MLK Inc. and Trees Portland, LLC (“Oregon Sellers” and collectively with the Colorado Sellers, the “Sellers”) (collectively, the “Plans”). Pursuant to the Plans, the Company has agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of each of the Colorado Sellers and Oregon Sellers (“Assets”). The Assets to be transferred to the Company by each of the Colorado Sellers and Oregon Sellers principally consist of the cannabis business licenses, inventory and intellectual property related to the Sellers’ cannabis dispensaries located in Englewood and Denver, Colorado and Portland, Oregon together with substantially all related assets. The Company is not assuming any liabilities of any of the Sellers. The Plan provides that the transaction qualifies as a tax-free reorganization pursuant to Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code. Closing of the transaction is subject to standard closing conditions, including regulatory approval of the transfer of the cannabis licenses by the applicable Colorado and Oregon cannabis regulatory authorities.

Consideration. The purchase price for the transaction consists of a cash payment of $2 million at closing, and an additional $3 million in cash payable in equal monthly amounts of $125,000 for a period of 24 months from the closing. In the event the Company consummates a capital raise of $5 million or greater during such 24-month period, such monthly payments are increased to $200,000 per month and the payout period decreases to 15 months from the closing, with a one-time ‘catch-up’ payment such that the total additional cash consideration equals $3 million. In addition, at the closing, the Company will issue to the Sellers 38,745,193 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Seller Shares”).

Board Seat; Voting Restrictions. The Company has agreed to appoint a designee of the Sellers to the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) following the closing. Further, the Sellers and members thereof have agreed, subject to certain conditions and limitations, to vote the Seller Shares in favor of any nominees for director approved by the Board; and in favor of any other proposals submitted in proxy statements approved by the Board relating to mergers or acquisitions; as well as refrain from engaging in any proxy contests or related activity.

Registration Rights; Lockup; Non-Compete. Subject to the terms of a definitive registration rights agreement to be agreed by the parties, as part of the transaction, the Company has agreed in principal to grant registration rights covering the reoffer of the Seller Shares consisting of a demand right commencing two years after the closing; and piggyback rights commencing one year after the closing. Furthermore, subject to certain exceptions to be contained within the definitive agreement, the parties have agreed that all Seller Shares will be locked up and restricted from resale for a period of one year from the closing; in years two to four after the closing, certain percentages of the Seller Shares shall be eligible for resale; and from the fourth anniversary of the closing onward, all Seller Shares will be eligible for resale and no longer subject to lockup restrictions. In addition, Sellers and their affiliates are subject to a two-year non-competition and non-solicitation covenant prohibiting such parties from engaging in (other than with respect to the Assets), the cultivation, manufacture and sale of marijuana or marijuana-related products, and/or dispensaries in respect thereof.

Employment agreements. As part of the transaction, the Company has agreed to employ Timothy Brown, managing member of the Colorado Sellers, to serve as the Company’s Chief Visionary Officer for a term of two years, subject to earlier termination upon certain conditions. Mr. Brown will receive a base salary of $400,000 per annum, subject to downward adjustment based on a formula relating to sales by Mr. Brown of

Seller Shares owned thereby. The Company has also agreed to employ Trevor Hoffman, managing member of the Oregon Sellers, to serve as the Head of Retail and President of the Retail Dispensary division for a term of two years, with standard one-year auto-renewals. Mr. Hoffman will receive a base salary of $160,000 per annum and be eligible for a bonus of up to 50% of base salary.

The foregoing descriptions of the Plans and all associated exhibits, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Plans, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, and incorporated herein by reference.

Convertible Notes and Warrants Offering

On April 20, 2021, the Company completed an offering with accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and issued and sold convertible notes (the “Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $2.3 million to such Investors (“Offering”).  The Notes are part of an over-allotment approved by the existing noteholders in connection with the original convertible note offering (and previous over-allotment) of $4.6 million consummated on December 23, 2020 and February 8, 2021 (“Original Offering”), as reported on Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on December 30, 2020 (“December Form 8-K”) and February 10, 2021. Total proceeds from the Offering together with the Original Offering is an aggregate of $6.9 million.

In connection with the Offering, each holder received warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) equal to 20% coverage of the aggregate principal amount at $0.56 per share, except that the warrant coverage to one Investor acting as lead investor in the Offering received approximately 35.5% of the aggregate principal amount invested.

The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 10% and will mature on April 20, 2024.  The Investors have the option to convert up to 50% of the outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest of the Notes into Common Stock at a variable price of 80% of the market price but no less than $0.65 per share and no more than $1.00 per share. The Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.56 per Warrant, subject to adjustment as provided in the Warrants, at any time prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date and an Acquisition (as defined in the Warrants).

The foregoing descriptions of the Notes, Warrants and Securities Purchase Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the agreements, copies of which are attached to the December 2020 Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the Warrants and Notes is incorporated herein by reference. The Warrants, the Notes, and any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants or the conversion of the Notes, if applicable, will be issued to the Investor in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

COMMON TERMS AND CONDITIONS
10.1.docx	Page 11 of 42 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Parent Shares with Parent’s management and has had an opportunity to review Parent’s business. Such discussions, as well as any written information delivered by Acquirer and Parent to Acquired Corporation, were intended to describe the aspects of Parent’s business which Acquirer and Parent believe to be material.  Further, Acquired Corporation acknowledges that it has reviewed Parent’s filings with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, and has had the opportunity to ask questions of management of Parent concerning Parent’s business, operations and financial condition.

(c)Restricted Securities. The Parent Shares have not been registered and are being issued to Acquired Corporation pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Parent Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities Laws and a resale of the Parent Shares may be made only pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption from registration.

(d)Rule 144. Acquired Corporation is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and which rule requires, among other things, that Parent be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the shares has held the shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, and that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions.  Neither Acquirer nor Parent has provided any assurances as to whether Acquired Corporation will be able to resell any or all of the Parent Shares pursuant to Rule 144.

(e)Resale Restrictions. If all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act, or some other registration exemption will be required with respect to the Parent Shares. Notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the SEC staff has expressed its opinion that Persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

(f)Sophistication.  Acquired Corporation and each Affiliate of Acquired Corporation is a sophisticated investor (as described in Rule 506 of Regulation D) and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the acquisition of the Parent Shares contemplated hereunder; and is fully capable of, and understands and

Neither Acquired Corporation, nor any of its officers, employees, agents, directors, members, attorneys, shareholders, or partners (a) has engaged the services of a broker, investment banker or finder to contact any potential investor, nor has Acquired Corporation or any of Acquired Corporation’s officers, employees, agents, directors, members or partners, agreed to pay any commission, fee or other remuneration to any third party to solicit or contact any potential investor; (b) engaged in any general solicitation; or (c) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Parent Shares being issued hereunder.

(h)Reliance on Exemption. The Parent Shares are being offered and issued to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities Laws. Acquirer and Parent are relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and Acquired Corporation’s compliance with, the statements of fact, representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of Acquired Corporation set forth in this Section II in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Acquired Corporation to acquire the Parent Shares.

8.3.Procedure with Respect to Third-Party Claims.

(a)If a Party is threatened with or becomes subject to a third party Claim, and such Party (the “Claiming Party”) believes it has a claim entitled to indemnification from the other Party (the “Responding Party”) as provided in Section 8.1 as a result, then the Claiming Party shall notify the Responding Party in writing of the basis for the Claim setting forth the nature of the Claim in reasonable detail. The failure of the Claiming Party to so notify the Responding Party will not relieve the Responding Party of liability hereunder except to the extent that the defense of the Claim is prejudiced by the failure to give the notice.

(b)If any Proceeding is brought by a third party against a Claiming Party and the Claiming Party gives notice to the Responding Party pursuant to this Section 8.3(a), the Responding Party may participate in the Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume the defense of the Proceeding, if (i) the Responding Party provides written notice to the Claiming Party that the Responding Party intends to undertake the defense, (ii) the Responding Party conducts the defense of the third-party Claim actively and diligently with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Claiming Party, and (iii) if the Responding Party is a party to the Proceeding, the Responding Party or the Claiming Party has not determined in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate because of a conflict of interest. The Claiming Party may, in its sole discretion, employ separate counsel (who may be selected by the Claiming Party in its sole discretion) in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, and the Claiming Party shall pay the fees and expenses of its counsel. The Claiming Party shall cooperate with the Responding Party and its counsel in the defense or compromise of the Claim. If the Responding Party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, no compromise or settlement of the Claims may be effected by the Responding Party without the Claiming Party’s consent unless (x) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other Claims that may be made against the Claiming Party, and (y) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that the Responding Party pays in full.

COMMON TERMS AND CONDITIONS
10.1.docx	Page 35 of 42 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

(c)If notice is given to the Responding Party of the commencement of any third-party Proceeding and the Responding Party does not, within 14 days after the Claiming Party’s notice is given pursuant to this Section 8.3(a), give notice to the Claiming Party of its election to assume the defense of the Proceeding, any of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 8.3(b) above become unsatisfied or a Claiming Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification from the Responding Party under this Agreement, then the Claiming Party may (upon notice to the Responding Party) undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of the Claim; provided, however, that the Responding Party shall reimburse the Claiming Party for the Losses associated with defending against the third-party Claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and will remain otherwise responsible for any liability with respect to amounts arising from or related to the third-party Claim, in both cases to the extent it is ultimately determined that the Responding Party is liable with respect to the third-party Claim for a breach under this Agreement. The Responding Party may elect to participate in the Proceedings, negotiations or defense at any time at its own expense.

8.4.Mandatory Binding Arbitration.

(a)Except for Claims arising under Section 4.8 or Section 9.11, any dispute, Claim, interpretation, controversy, or issues of public policy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Section 8.4, will be determined exclusively by arbitration held in Denver, Colorado, and will be governed exclusively by the Colorado Revised Arbitration Act, §§ 13-22-201, et seq., C.R.S. (the “CRAA”).

(b)The arbitrator will be selected from the roster of arbitrators at Judicial Arbiter Group, Inc. in Denver, Colorado (“JAG”), unless the Parties agree otherwise. If the Parties do not agree on the selection of a single arbitrator within ten days after a demand for arbitration is made, then the arbitrator will be selected by JAG from among its available professionals. Arbitration of all disputes and the outcome of the arbitration will remain confidential between the Parties except as necessary to obtain a court judgment on the award or other relief or to engage in collection of the judgment.

(c)The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts located in Denver, Colorado, with respect to this Section 8.4 to compel arbitration, to confirm an arbitration award or order, or to handle court functions permitted under the CRAA. The Parties irrevocably waive defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or other proceeding. The Parties may seek recognition and enforcement of any Colorado state court judgment confirming an arbitration award or order in any United States state court or any court outside the United States or its territories having jurisdiction with respect to recognition or enforcement of such judgment.

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ______, 2021 (“Effective Date”), is entered into by and between General Cannabis Corp., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), and Trevor Hoffman, an individual (“Employee”).

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ Employee and Employee wishes to be employed by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises, terms, provisions, and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

(b) The term of this Agreement (“Term”) shall be a period of two (2) years from the Effective Date, and shall automatically renew for successive one-year periods thereafter unless either party delivers written notice of non-renewal to the other party not less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the Term then in effect.

2. Position and Duties.

(b) Employee shall devote his best efforts, business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below). Employee shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to the Company and its Subsidiaries hereunder in good faith and to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient manner and shall comply with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ general employment policies and practices, as they may be amended from time to time; provided, that when the terms of this Agreement conflict with such general employment policies or practices, this Agreement shall control. So long as Employee is employed by

10.1.docx Page 1 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

the Company, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), accept other employment or perform other services for compensation that materially interfere with Employee’s employment or with his performance hereunder.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are then, owned by the Company, directly or through one or more subsidiaries.

3. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary. Employee’s base salary shall be $160,000 per annum and shall be subject to increase from time to time in the Board’s sole discretion (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be paid by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time).

(b) Annual Bonus. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be eligible to receive an annual discretionary incentive payment based upon the attainment of one or more performance goals and/or such other criteria as may be established by the Board in its sole discretion (“Bonus”).  The Bonus in any year of the Term may be up to 50% of Base Salary, subject to performance or other metrics and/or as determined in the discretion of the Board.  Bonus shall be payable one-half in cash and the remaining half in a grant of common stock of the Company valued at the time of grant.

(c) Severance.  In the event of (i) a termination of Employee’s employment hereunder by the Company without Cause (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) resignation by Employee for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), Employee shall be entitled to receive severance equal to Base Salary for a period of six (6) months paid over time in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, it being expressly understood and agreed that in the event Employee voluntarily leaves the employ of the Company without Good Reason or is terminated for Cause, Employee shall not receive any such severance.

If Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated, in addition to any severance to which Employee is entitled in accordance with Section 3(c), Employee shall be entitled to (A) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination, (B) Bonus proportional to the amount of time remaining in the current year of the Term as determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion, and (C) unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 4(b).

(b) Termination of Employee Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Employee shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and all of Employee’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company (other than vested retirement or other benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any vested rights under any equity plan of the Company or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of such termination or expiration that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination or expiration, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA). All such salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation shall be deemed unearned and all conditions for any right to receive such payments shall be deemed unsatisfied.

(c) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Cause” shall be determined by the Board and shall mean with respect to

10.1.docx Page 3 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

Employee one or more of the following: (A) Employee’s breach of his covenants contained in this Agreement, in any material respect, or any breach of fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (B) Employee’s willful failure or refusal to perform the duties and responsibilities lawfully required to be performed by Employee under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise reasonably requested by the Company; (C) Employee’s failure to follow the directives of the Board in any material respect, which breach remains substantially uncured for fifteen (15) or more days after Employee’s receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach; (D) Employee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (E) Employee’s willful commission of an act of dishonesty adversely affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or the commission of an act constituting common law fraud or a felony or the commission of any other act or omission involving misappropriation, embezzlement, dishonesty, or theft with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (F) any willful or intentional act or omission materially aiding or abetting a competitor or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the disadvantage or detriment of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(ii) “Good Reason” shall mean (A) the failure of the Company to pay any Base Salary, bonus payments, or additional compensation or benefits hereunder in accordance with this Agreement; (B) the assignment to Employee without Employee’s prior written consent of duties substantially inconsistent with Employee’s title; (C) any material adverse change in Employee’s duties, responsibilities, or title without Employee’s prior written consent; or (D) the relocation of Employee’s principal place of performance hereunder to a location more than 25 miles from its location immediately before the Effective Date.

6. Confidential Information.

(a) Employee acknowledges that the continued success of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information. All such confidential, proprietary and trade secret information now existing or developed during the term of Employee’s employment hereunder will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information will be interpreted broadly to include all information of any sort (whether embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ business and (ii) not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Employee during the course of his performance under this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ business or industry of which Employee becomes aware

10.1.docx Page 4 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

during Employee’s employment with the Company, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Employee’s course of performance under this Agreement, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, confidential employee lists and contact information, compensation and incentive structures and strategies, confidential information concerning sales, including volumes, pricing, and margins, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Employee agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Employee’s improper acts or omissions to act or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Employee agrees that he shall not disclose any Confidential Information after his employment ends. If requested by the Company in writing, Employee agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of Employee’s employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof and all electronic data residing on any electronic device) relating to the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control, provided that Employee may retain copies of Employee’s personnel information, such as performance evaluations, payroll information and the like.

(b) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Employee shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Employee’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. If at any time during employment with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, Employee believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Employee may have to former employers or other persons, Employee shall promptly advise the Board so that Employee’s duties can be modified

10.1.docx Page 5 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

appropriately.

(c) Employee shall promptly notify the Company of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any trade secrets or Confidential Information by Employee or any other person or entity of which Employee becomes aware. Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company in the procurement of any protection of the Company’s rights to or in any of the trade secrets or Confidential Information.

(d) Employee understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During Employee’s employment with the Company and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 6(a) above, Employee will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company or such Subsidiaries and affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates, such Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by the Board’s written consent.

7. Employee Proprietary Information Agreement. Upon reasonable request by Company, Employee shall execute a separate agreement between the parties hereto made a part hereof covering, among other things, non-disclosure and assignment of inventions.

8. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a) In recognition of the importance to the Company of the preservation and protection of its intellectual property, name and goodwill and in consideration for employment and/or continued employment, access to or continued access to Confidential Information, training, compensation and benefits, as well as other good and valuable consideration provided by the Company to Employee, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Employee, the parties agree that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for Cause or without Good Reason (the “Non-Compete”) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, as a partner, joint venturer, member, lender, employer, employee, advisor, contractor, consultant, shareholder, principal or agent, engage in, control, advise with respect to, manage or furnish consulting or other services to, nor have any interest in, any business relating to the regulated cannabis industry within the states of Colorado and Oregon, including businesses involved in the cultivation, production and retail sides of the cannabis business, and security, marketing, operational consulting and products, real estate and financing for the industry. The Non-Compete shall not prohibit Employee from owning less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation.

10.1.docx Page 6 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

(b) Employee acknowledges that the foregoing geographic restriction on competition is fair and reasonable, given the geographic scope of Company’s business operations and the nature of Employee’s position with the Company. Employee also acknowledges that while employed by the Company, Employee will have access to information that would be valuable or useful to Company’s competitors, and therefore acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions on Employee’s future employment and business activities are fair and reasonable. Employee acknowledges and is prepared for the possibility that Employee’s standard of living may be reduced during the noncompetition period, and assumes and accepts any risk associated with that possibility.

(c) Employee acknowledges the following provisions of Colorado law, set forth in Colorado Revised Statutes § 8-2-113(2):

Any covenant not to compete which restricts the right of any person to receive compensation for performance of skilled or unskilled labor for any employer shall be void, but this subsection (2) shall not apply to:

(iii) Any contract for the purchase and sale of a business or the assets of a business;

(iv) Any contract for the protection of trade secrets;

(v) Any contract provision providing for the recovery of the expense of educating and training an employee who has served an employer for a period of less than two (2) years; and

(vi) Executive and management personnel and officers and employees who constitute professional staff to executive and management personnel.

(d) Employee acknowledges that this Agreement is a contract for the protection of trade secrets under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(b), and is intended to protect the Confidential Information identified above; and that Employee is an executive and management employee or professional staff to executive or management personnel, within the meaning of Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(d).

(e) Employee agrees that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee shall not, without the Company’s written permission, directly or indirectly through another person or entity (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the six (6) months preceding such hiring, or (iii) induce or attempt to induce

10.1.docx Page 7 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications about the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates), (iv) directly or indirectly acquire or attempt to acquire any business which the Company or its Subsidiaries identified as a potential acquisition target during or prior to Employee’s employment with the Company (an “Acquisition Target”), or take any action to induce or attempt to induce any Acquisition Target to consummate any acquisition, investment or other similar transaction with any person or entity other than the Company or its Subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 8(e), the term “employee” shall include consultants and independent contractors of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(f) Employee agrees that the covenants made in this Section 8 shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision(s) of this Agreement and shall survive any order of a court of competent jurisdiction terminating any other provision(s) of this Agreement.

9. Trade Secrets; Remedies; Restrictions.

(a) Employee further acknowledges and agrees with the Company that Employee’s service to the Company requires the use of information, including programs, methods, techniques, and processes, that the Company and its Subsidiaries have made reasonable efforts to keep confidential and that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other person who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use (collectively, “Trade Secrets”). Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company would be irreparably damaged if Employee were to use or disclose such Trade Secrets to third parties, including any person or entity competing with the Company and its Subsidiaries or engaged in a material line of business similar to that engaged in by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Employee accordingly covenants and agrees with the Company that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or for any other person participate in any business, other than for the Company and its Subsidiaries, in which Employee would be required to employ, reveal or otherwise utilize or disclose Company Trade Secrets. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates for a period of six (6) months, Employee shall keep the Company’s Trade Secrets strictly confidential and not disclose them to any third parties.

(b) In the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the Company would suffer irreparable harm,

10.1.docx Page 8 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Employee breached or violated Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the periods of such restrictive covenants will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

(c) If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographic area held reasonable by the court shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 are reasonable in all respects and necessary to protect the goodwill of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that, without such protection, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ customer, distributor and supplier relations and competitive advantage would be adversely affected.

10. Employee’s Representations. Employee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Employee do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Employee is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Employee is not a party to or bound by any other employment agreement, noncompete agreement or, except in the ordinary course of business, confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity except as disclosed in writing to the Company prior to the date hereof, and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Employee hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

11. Survival. To the extent contemplated by this Agreement, the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.

If the Company elects not to pursue a submitted Corporate Opportunity, Employee shall have the right to accept or pursue such Corporate Opportunity.

23. Employee’s Cooperation. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall, subject to the Company reimbursing Employee for out-of-pocket expenses, cooperate with the Company and its Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by the Company (including, without limitation, Employee being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Employee’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Employee’s other permitted activities and commitments).

24. Section 409A Compliance. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to Employee and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Employee by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a termination of employment shall be deemed to have occurred at the time such termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits in connection with a termination of employment and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean a “separation from service.” Further, if, on the date of a “separation from service” (as defined in Code Section 409A), Employee is a “specified employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A), no amounts that would constitute deferred compensation payable hereunder that are subject to Code Section 409A shall be made until the earliest date on which payment is permissible under 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (the six (6)-month delay rule for specified employees). To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (A) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Employee, (B) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject

10.1.docx Page 12 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. For purposes of Code Section 409A, Employee’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ______, 2021 (“Effective Date”), is entered into by and between General Cannabis Corp., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), and Timothy Brown, an individual (“Employee”).

WHEREAS the Company wishes to employ Employee and Employee wishes to be employed by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises, terms, provisions, and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Employment.

(a) Effective as of the Effective Date, Employee is hereby employed with the Company as the Chief Visionary Officer.  Employee shall report to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

(b) The term of this Agreement (“Term”) shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) two (2) years from the Effective Date or (ii) the date on which Employee and/or Mr. Trevor Hoffman cumulatively sell an aggregate of $3 million of Common Stock of the Company (“Employee Stock”), the determination of which shall be made by the Company in its reasonable discretion.

2. Position and Duties.

(a) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall serve as Chief Visionary Officer of the Company and shall have such duties and authority commensurate with such position and as shall be assigned to him from time to time by the Board.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Employee shall be responsible for, among other matters: identifying new corporate opportunities for the Company and its business lines; developing a retail strategy or strategies; identifying potential acquisition targets; and identifying regulatory challenges and opportunities.

(b) Employee shall devote his best efforts, business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below). Employee shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to the Company and its Subsidiaries hereunder in good faith and to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient manner and shall comply with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ general employment policies and practices, as they may be amended from time to time; provided, that when the terms of this Agreement conflict with such general employment policies or practices, this Agreement shall control. So long as Employee is employed by

10.1.docx Page 1 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

the Company, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board, accept other employment or perform other services for compensation that materially interfere with Employee’s employment or with his performance hereunder.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are then, owned by the Company, directly or through one or more subsidiaries.

3. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary. Employee’s base salary shall be $400,000 per annum, as adjusted below (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be paid by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time).  Base Salary shall be subject, at any time or from time to time, to downward adjustment such that for each dollar of sale proceeds received by Employee (or on behalf of Employee) pursuant to sales or transfers of Employee Stock, Base Salary shall be reduced as follows:

Downward adjustment = (Cumulative Proceeds from Sales of Employee Stock / $3,000,000) multiplied by Base Salary then in effect.

Employee shall notify the Company in writing upon any such sale or transfer of Employee Stock within three (3) business days of the sale thereof.

(b) Severance.  In the event of (i) a termination of Employee’s employment hereunder by the Company without Cause (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) resignation by Employee for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), Employee shall be entitled to receive severance equal to Base Salary for the remainder of the Term paid over time in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, it being expressly understood and agreed that in the event Employee voluntarily leaves the employ of the Company without Good Reason or is terminated for Cause, Employee shall not receive any such severance.

4. Employee Benefits.

(a) Insurance and Employee Programs. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be eligible for all employee benefit programs (including any retirement plan, life insurance, group medical and dental, and short-term disability policies, plans and programs) established and maintained for the benefit of the Company’s employees of comparable rank and status as Employee, subject to the provisions of such plans and programs.

(b) Expense Reimbursement. During Employee’s employment with the Company, the

10.1.docx Page 2 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

Company shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Employee in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment, cell phone and other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses.

(c) Paid Time Off. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation and holidays in accordance with the Company’s policy. Employee shall also be entitled to such periods of sick leave as is customarily provided by the Company to its employees of comparable rank and status of Employee.

(d) Withholding. All amounts payable to Employee as compensation hereunder shall be subject to all required and customary employment and income withholding obligations by the Company.

5. Termination of Employment.

(a) Accrued Obligations. If Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated, in addition to any severance to which Employee is entitled in accordance with Section 3(b), Employee shall be entitled to (A) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination, and (B) unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 4(b).

(b) Termination of Employee Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Employee shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and all of Employee’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company (other than vested retirement or other benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any vested rights under any equity plan of the Company or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of such termination or expiration that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination or expiration, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA). All such salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation shall be deemed unearned and all conditions for any right to receive such payments shall be deemed unsatisfied.

(c) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

(vii) “Cause” shall be determined by the Board and shall mean with respect to

10.1.docx Page 3 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

Employee one or more of the following: (A) Employee’s breach of his covenants contained in this Agreement, in any material respect, or any breach of fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (B) Employee’s willful failure or refusal to perform the duties and responsibilities lawfully required to be performed by Employee under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise reasonably requested by the Company; (C) Employee’s failure to follow the directives of the Board in any material respect, which breach remains substantially uncured for fifteen (15) or more days after Employee’s receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach; (D) Employee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (E) Employee’s willful commission of an act of dishonesty adversely affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or the commission of an act constituting common law fraud or a felony or the commission of any other act or omission involving misappropriation, embezzlement, dishonesty, or theft with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (F) any willful or intentional act or omission materially aiding or abetting a competitor or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the disadvantage or detriment of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(viii) “Good Reason” shall mean (A) the failure of the Company to pay any Base Salary, bonus payments, or additional compensation or benefits hereunder in accordance with this Agreement; (B) the assignment to Employee without Employee’s prior written consent of duties substantially inconsistent with Employee’s title; (C) any material adverse change in Employee’s duties, responsibilities, or title without Employee’s prior written consent; or (D) the relocation of Employee’s principal place of performance hereunder to a location more than 25 miles from its location immediately before the Effective Date.

6. Confidential Information.

(a) Employee acknowledges that the continued success of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information. All such confidential, proprietary and trade secret information now existing or developed during the term of Employee’s employment hereunder will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information will be interpreted broadly to include all information of any sort (whether embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ business and (ii) not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Employee during the course of his performance under this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, information concerning

10.1.docx Page 4 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ business or industry of which Employee becomes aware during Employee’s employment with the Company, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Employee’s course of performance under this Agreement, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, confidential employee lists and contact information, compensation and incentive structures and strategies, confidential information concerning sales, including volumes, pricing, and margins, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Employee agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Employee’s improper acts or omissions to act or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Employee agrees that he shall not disclose any Confidential Information after his employment ends. If requested by the Company in writing, Employee agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of Employee’s employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof and all electronic data residing on any electronic device) relating to the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control, provided that Employee may retain copies of Employee’s personnel information, such as performance evaluations, payroll information and the like.

(b) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Employee shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Employee’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. If at any time during employment with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, Employee believes he is being asked to engage in work

10.1.docx Page 5 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Employee may have to former employers or other persons, Employee shall promptly advise the Board so that Employee’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(c) Employee shall promptly notify the Company of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any trade secrets or Confidential Information by Employee or any other person or entity of which Employee becomes aware. Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company in the procurement of any protection of the Company’s rights to or in any of the trade secrets or Confidential Information.

(d) Employee understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During Employee’s employment with the Company and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 6(a) above, Employee will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company or such Subsidiaries and affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates, such Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by the Board’s written consent.

7. Employee Proprietary Information Agreement. Upon reasonable request by Company, Employee shall execute a separate agreement between the parties hereto made a part hereof covering, among other things, non-disclosure and assignment of inventions.

8. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a) In recognition of the importance to the Company of the preservation and protection of its intellectual property, name and goodwill and in consideration for employment and/or continued employment, access to or continued access to Confidential Information, training, compensation and benefits, as well as other good and valuable consideration provided by the Company to Employee, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Employee, the parties agree that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for Cause or without Good Reason (the “Non-Compete”) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, as a partner, joint venturer, member, lender, employer, employee, advisor, contractor, consultant, shareholder, principal or agent, engage in, control, advise with respect to, manage or furnish consulting or other services to, nor have any interest in, any business relating to the cultivation, production and retail sides

10.1.docx Page 6 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

of the cannabis business in the States of Colorado and Oregon. The Non-Compete shall not prohibit Employee from (i) engaging in any such activities upon the mutual agreement of Employee and the Company; or (ii) owning less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation.

(b) Employee acknowledges that the foregoing geographic restriction on competition is fair and reasonable, given the geographic scope of Company’s business operations and the nature of Employee’s position with the Company. Employee also acknowledges that while employed by the Company, Employee will have access to information that would be valuable or useful to Company’s competitors, and therefore acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions on Employee’s future employment and business activities are fair and reasonable. Employee acknowledges and is prepared for the possibility that Employee’s standard of living may be reduced during the noncompetition period, and assumes and accepts any risk associated with that possibility.

(c) Employee acknowledges the following provisions of Colorado law, set forth in Colorado Revised Statutes § 8-2-113(2):

Any covenant not to compete which restricts the right of any person to receive compensation for performance of skilled or unskilled labor for any employer shall be void, but this subsection (2) shall not apply to:

(ix) Any contract for the purchase and sale of a business or the assets of a business;

(x) Any contract for the protection of trade secrets;

(xi) Any contract provision providing for the recovery of the expense of educating and training an employee who has served an employer for a period of less than two (2) years; and

(xii) Executive and management personnel and officers and employees who constitute professional staff to executive and management personnel.

(d) Employee acknowledges that this Agreement is a contract for the protection of trade secrets under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(b), and is intended to protect the Confidential Information identified above; and that Employee is an executive and management employee or professional staff to executive or management personnel, within the meaning of Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(d).

10.1.docx Page 7 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

(e) Employee agrees that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee shall not, without the Company’s written permission, directly or indirectly through another person or entity (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the six (6) months preceding such hiring, or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications about the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates), (iv) directly or indirectly acquire or attempt to acquire any business which the Company or its Subsidiaries identified as a potential acquisition target during or prior to Employee’s employment with the Company (an “Acquisition Target”), or take any action to induce or attempt to induce any Acquisition Target to consummate any acquisition, investment or other similar transaction with any person or entity other than the Company or its Subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 8(e), the term “employee” shall include consultants and independent contractors of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(f) Employee agrees that the covenants made in this Section 8 shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision(s) of this Agreement and shall survive any order of a court of competent jurisdiction terminating any other provision(s) of this Agreement.

9. Trade Secrets; Remedies; Restrictions.

(a) Employee further acknowledges and agrees with the Company that Employee’s service to the Company requires the use of information, including programs, methods, techniques, and processes, that the Company and its Subsidiaries have made reasonable efforts to keep confidential and that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other person who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use (collectively, “Trade Secrets”). Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company would be irreparably damaged if Employee were to use or disclose such Trade Secrets to third parties, including any person or entity competing with the Company and its Subsidiaries or engaged in a material line of business similar to that engaged in by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Employee accordingly covenants and agrees with the Company that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or for any other person

10.1.docx Page 8 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

participate in any business, other than for the Company and its Subsidiaries, in which Employee would be required to employ, reveal or otherwise utilize or disclose Company Trade Secrets. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates for a period of six (6) months, Employee shall keep the Company’s Trade Secrets strictly confidential and not disclose them to any third parties.

(b) In the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the Company would suffer irreparable harm, and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Employee breached or violated Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the periods of such restrictive covenants will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

(c) If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographic area held reasonable by the court shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 are reasonable in all respects and necessary to protect the goodwill of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that, without such protection, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ customer, distributor and supplier relations and competitive advantage would be adversely affected.

10. Employee’s Representations. Employee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Employee do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Employee is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Employee is not a party to or bound by any other employment agreement, noncompete agreement or, except in the ordinary course of business, confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity except as disclosed in writing to the Company prior to the date hereof, and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Employee hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

10.1.docx Page 12 of 14 (4.21.21 - 22:03)

permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to Employee and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Employee by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a termination of employment shall be deemed to have occurred at the time such termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits in connection with a termination of employment and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean a “separation from service.” Further, if, on the date of a “separation from service” (as defined in Code Section 409A), Employee is a “specified employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A), no amounts that would constitute deferred compensation payable hereunder that are subject to Code Section 409A shall be made until the earliest date on which payment is permissible under 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (the six (6)-month delay rule for specified employees). To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (A) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Employee, (B) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. For purposes of Code Section 409A, Employee’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

COMMON TERMS AND CONDITIONS
10.2	Page 11 of 42 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Parent Shares with Parent’s management and has had an opportunity to review Parent’s business. Such discussions, as well as any written information delivered by Acquirer and Parent to Acquired Corporation, were intended to describe the aspects of Parent’s business which Acquirer and Parent believe to be material.  Further, Acquired Corporation acknowledges that it has reviewed Parent’s filings with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, and has had the opportunity to ask questions of management of Parent concerning Parent’s business, operations and financial condition.

(c)Restricted Securities. The Parent Shares have not been registered and are being issued to Acquired Corporation pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Parent Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities Laws and a resale of the Parent Shares may be made only pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption from registration.

(d)Rule 144. Acquired Corporation is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and which rule requires, among other things, that Parent be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the shares has held the shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, and that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions.  Neither Acquirer nor Parent has provided any assurances as to whether Acquired Corporation will be able to resell any or all of the Parent Shares pursuant to Rule 144.

(e)Resale Restrictions. If all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A promulgated under the Securities Act, or some other registration exemption will be required with respect to the Parent Shares. Notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the SEC staff has expressed its opinion that Persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

(f)Sophistication.  Acquired Corporation and each Affiliate of Acquired Corporation is a sophisticated investor (as described in Rule 506 of Regulation D) and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the acquisition of the Parent Shares contemplated hereunder; and is fully capable of, and understands and

(g)No General Solicitation. Neither Acquired Corporation, nor any of its officers, employees, agents, directors, members, attorneys, shareholders, or partners (a) has engaged the services of a broker, investment banker or finder to contact any potential investor, nor has Acquired Corporation or any of Acquired Corporation’s officers, employees, agents, directors, members or partners, agreed to pay any commission, fee or other remuneration to any third party to solicit or contact any potential investor; (b) engaged in any general solicitation; or (c) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Parent Shares being issued hereunder.

(h)Reliance on Exemption. The Parent Shares are being offered and issued to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities Laws. Acquirer and Parent are relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and Acquired Corporation’s compliance with, the statements of fact, representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of Acquired Corporation set forth in this Section II in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of Acquired Corporation to acquire the Parent Shares.

2.13.Financial Statements.  Acquired Corporation has delivered to Acquirer and Parent the most recent consolidated financial statements of Acquired Corporation as of December 31, 2020 (the “Acquired Corporation Financial Statements”). The Acquired Corporation Financial Statements:

8.3.Procedure with Respect to Third-Party Claims.

(a)If a Party is threatened with or becomes subject to a third party Claim, and such Party (the “Claiming Party”) believes it has a claim entitled to indemnification from the other Party (the “Responding Party”) as provided in Section 8.1 as a result, then the Claiming Party shall notify the Responding Party in writing of the basis for the Claim setting forth the nature of the Claim in reasonable detail. The failure of the Claiming Party to so notify the Responding Party will not relieve the Responding Party of liability hereunder except to the extent that the defense of the Claim is prejudiced by the failure to give the notice.

(b)If any Proceeding is brought by a third party against a Claiming Party and the Claiming Party gives notice to the Responding Party pursuant to this Section 8.3(a), the Responding Party may participate in the Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume the defense of the Proceeding, if (i) the Responding Party provides written notice to the Claiming Party that the Responding Party intends to undertake the defense, (ii) the Responding Party conducts the defense of the third-party Claim actively and diligently with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Claiming Party, and (iii) if the Responding Party is a party to the Proceeding, the Responding Party or the Claiming Party has not determined in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate because of a conflict of interest. The Claiming Party may, in its sole discretion, employ separate counsel (who may be selected by the Claiming Party in its sole discretion) in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, and the Claiming Party shall pay the fees and expenses of its counsel. The Claiming Party shall cooperate with the Responding Party and its counsel in the defense or compromise of the Claim. If the Responding Party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, no compromise or settlement of the Claims may be effected by the Responding Party without the Claiming Party’s consent unless (x) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other Claims that may be made against the Claiming Party, and (y) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that the Responding Party pays in full.

COMMON TERMS AND CONDITIONS
10.2	Page 35 of 42 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

(c)If notice is given to the Responding Party of the commencement of any third-party Proceeding and the Responding Party does not, within 14 days after the Claiming Party’s notice is given pursuant to this Section 8.3(a), give notice to the Claiming Party of its election to assume the defense of the Proceeding, any of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 8.3(b) above become unsatisfied or a Claiming Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification from the Responding Party under this Agreement, then the Claiming Party may (upon notice to the Responding Party) undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of the Claim; provided, however, that the Responding Party shall reimburse the Claiming Party for the Losses associated with defending against the third-party Claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and will remain otherwise responsible for any liability with respect to amounts arising from or related to the third-party Claim, in both cases to the extent it is ultimately determined that the Responding Party is liable with respect to the third-party Claim for a breach under this Agreement. The Responding Party may elect to participate in the Proceedings, negotiations or defense at any time at its own expense.

8.4.Mandatory Binding Arbitration.

(a)Except for Claims arising under Section 4.8 or Section 9.11, any dispute, Claim, interpretation, controversy, or issues of public policy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Section 8.4, will be determined exclusively by arbitration held in Denver, Colorado, and will be governed exclusively by the Colorado Revised Arbitration Act, §§ 13-22-201, et seq., C.R.S. (the “CRAA”).

(b)The arbitrator will be selected from the roster of arbitrators at Judicial Arbiter Group, Inc. in Denver, Colorado (“JAG”), unless the Parties agree otherwise. If the Parties do not agree on the selection of a single arbitrator within ten days after a demand for arbitration is made, then the arbitrator will be selected by JAG from among its available professionals. Arbitration of all disputes and the outcome of the arbitration will remain confidential between the Parties except as necessary to obtain a court judgment on the award or other relief or to engage in collection of the judgment.

(c)The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts located in Denver, Colorado, with respect to this Section 8.4 to compel arbitration, to confirm an arbitration award or order, or to handle court functions permitted under the CRAA. The Parties irrevocably waive defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or other proceeding. The Parties may seek recognition and enforcement of any Colorado state court judgment confirming an arbitration award or order in any United States state court or any court outside the United States or its territories having jurisdiction with respect to recognition or enforcement of such judgment.

COMMON TERMS AND CONDITIONS
10.2	Page 36 of 42 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ______, 2021 (“Effective Date”), is entered into by and between General Cannabis Corp., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), and Trevor Hoffman, an individual (“Employee”).

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ Employee and Employee wishes to be employed by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises, terms, provisions, and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Employment.

(a) Effective as of the Effective Date, Employee is hereby employed with the Company as the Head of Retail and President of Trees.  Employee shall report to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

(b) The term of this Agreement (“Term”) shall be a period of two (2) years from the Effective Date, and shall automatically renew for successive one-year periods thereafter unless either party delivers written notice of non-renewal to the other party not less than 90 days prior to the expiration of the Term then in effect.

2. Position and Duties.

(a) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall serve as Head of Retail and President of Trees and shall have such duties and authority commensurate with such position and as shall be assigned to him from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Employee shall be responsible for, among other matters, any and all retail operations as may be assigned to Employee as well as development of a vertically integrated growth strategy and shall oversee and be accountable for the Trees profit and loss statement.

(b) Employee shall devote his best efforts, business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below). Employee shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to the Company and its Subsidiaries hereunder in good faith and to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient manner and shall comply with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ general employment policies and practices, as they may be amended from time to time; provided, that when the terms of this Agreement conflict with such general employment policies or practices, this Agreement shall control. So long as Employee is employed by

10.2 Page 1 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

the Company, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), accept other employment or perform other services for compensation that materially interfere with Employee’s employment or with his performance hereunder.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are then, owned by the Company, directly or through one or more subsidiaries.

3. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary. Employee’s base salary shall be $160,000 per annum and shall be subject to increase from time to time in the Board’s sole discretion (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be paid by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time).

(b) Annual Bonus. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be eligible to receive an annual discretionary incentive payment based upon the attainment of one or more performance goals and/or such other criteria as may be established by the Board in its sole discretion (“Bonus”).  The Bonus in any year of the Term may be up to 50% of Base Salary, subject to performance or other metrics and/or as determined in the discretion of the Board.  Bonus shall be payable one-half in cash and the remaining half in a grant of common stock of the Company valued at the time of grant.

(c) Severance.  In the event of (i) a termination of Employee’s employment hereunder by the Company without Cause (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) resignation by Employee for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), Employee shall be entitled to receive severance equal to Base Salary for a period of six (6) months paid over time in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, it being expressly understood and agreed that in the event Employee voluntarily leaves the employ of the Company without Good Reason or is terminated for Cause, Employee shall not receive any such severance.

4. Employee Benefits.

(a) Insurance and Employee Programs. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be eligible for all employee benefit programs (including any retirement plan, life insurance, group medical and dental, and short-term disability policies, plan and programs) established and maintained for the benefit of the Company’s employees of comparable rank and status as Employee, subject to the provisions of such plans and programs.

10.2 Page 2 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

(b) Expense Reimbursement. During Employee’s employment with the Company, the Company shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Employee in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment, cell phone and other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses.

(c) Paid Time Off. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation and holidays in accordance with the Company’s policy. Employee shall also be entitled to such periods of sick leave as is customarily provided by the Company to its employees of comparable rank and status of Employee.

(d) Withholding. All amounts payable to Employee as compensation hereunder shall be subject to all required and customary employment and income withholding obligations by the Company.

5. Termination of Employment.

(a) Accrued Obligations. If Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated, in addition to any severance to which Employee is entitled in accordance with Section 3(c), Employee shall be entitled to (A) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination, (B) Bonus proportional to the amount of time remaining in the current year of the Term as determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion, and (C) unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 4(b).

(b) Termination of Employee Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Employee shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and all of Employee’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company (other than vested retirement or other benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any vested rights under any equity plan of the Company or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of such termination or expiration that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination or expiration, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA). All such salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation shall be deemed unearned and all conditions for any right to receive such payments shall be deemed unsatisfied.

(c) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Cause” shall be determined by the Board and shall mean with respect to

10.2 Page 3 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

Employee one or more of the following: (A) Employee’s breach of his covenants contained in this Agreement, in any material respect, or any breach of fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (B) Employee’s willful failure or refusal to perform the duties and responsibilities lawfully required to be performed by Employee under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise reasonably requested by the Company; (C) Employee’s failure to follow the directives of the Board in any material respect, which breach remains substantially uncured for fifteen (15) or more days after Employee’s receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach; (D) Employee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (E) Employee’s willful commission of an act of dishonesty adversely affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or the commission of an act constituting common law fraud or a felony or the commission of any other act or omission involving misappropriation, embezzlement, dishonesty, or theft with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (F) any willful or intentional act or omission materially aiding or abetting a competitor or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the disadvantage or detriment of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(ii) “Good Reason” shall mean (A) the failure of the Company to pay any Base Salary, bonus payments, or additional compensation or benefits hereunder in accordance with this Agreement; (B) the assignment to Employee without Employee’s prior written consent of duties substantially inconsistent with Employee’s title; (C) any material adverse change in Employee’s duties, responsibilities, or title without Employee’s prior written consent; or (D) the relocation of Employee’s principal place of performance hereunder to a location more than 25 miles from its location immediately before the Effective Date.

6. Confidential Information.

(a) Employee acknowledges that the continued success of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information. All such confidential, proprietary and trade secret information now existing or developed during the term of Employee’s employment hereunder will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information will be interpreted broadly to include all information of any sort (whether embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ business and (ii) not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Employee during the course of his performance under this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ business or industry of which Employee becomes aware

10.2 Page 4 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

during Employee’s employment with the Company, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Employee’s course of performance under this Agreement, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, confidential employee lists and contact information, compensation and incentive structures and strategies, confidential information concerning sales, including volumes, pricing, and margins, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Employee agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Employee’s improper acts or omissions to act or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Employee agrees that he shall not disclose any Confidential Information after his employment ends. If requested by the Company in writing, Employee agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of Employee’s employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof and all electronic data residing on any electronic device) relating to the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control, provided that Employee may retain copies of Employee’s personnel information, such as performance evaluations, payroll information and the like.

(b) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Employee shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Employee’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. If at any time during employment with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, Employee believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Employee may have to former employers or other persons, Employee shall promptly advise the Board so that Employee’s duties can be modified

10.2 Page 5 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

appropriately.

(c) Employee shall promptly notify the Company of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any trade secrets or Confidential Information by Employee or any other person or entity of which Employee becomes aware. Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company in the procurement of any protection of the Company’s rights to or in any of the trade secrets or Confidential Information.

(d) Employee understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During Employee’s employment with the Company and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 6(a) above, Employee will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company or such Subsidiaries and affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates, such Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by the Board’s written consent.

7. Employee Proprietary Information Agreement. Upon reasonable request by Company, Employee shall execute a separate agreement between the parties hereto made a part hereof covering, among other things, non-disclosure and assignment of inventions.

8. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a) In recognition of the importance to the Company of the preservation and protection of its intellectual property, name and goodwill and in consideration for employment and/or continued employment, access to or continued access to Confidential Information, training, compensation and benefits, as well as other good and valuable consideration provided by the Company to Employee, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Employee, the parties agree that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for Cause or without Good Reason (the “Non-Compete”) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, as a partner, joint venturer, member, lender, employer, employee, advisor, contractor, consultant, shareholder, principal or agent, engage in, control, advise with respect to, manage or furnish consulting or other services to, nor have any interest in, any business relating to the regulated cannabis industry within the states of Colorado and Oregon, including businesses involved in the cultivation, production and retail sides of the cannabis business, and security, marketing, operational consulting and products, real estate and financing for the industry. The Non-Compete shall not prohibit Employee from owning less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation.

10.2 Page 6 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

(b) Employee acknowledges that the foregoing geographic restriction on competition is fair and reasonable, given the geographic scope of Company’s business operations and the nature of Employee’s position with the Company. Employee also acknowledges that while employed by the Company, Employee will have access to information that would be valuable or useful to Company’s competitors, and therefore acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions on Employee’s future employment and business activities are fair and reasonable. Employee acknowledges and is prepared for the possibility that Employee’s standard of living may be reduced during the noncompetition period, and assumes and accepts any risk associated with that possibility.

(c) Employee acknowledges the following provisions of Colorado law, set forth in Colorado Revised Statutes § 8-2-113(2):

Any covenant not to compete which restricts the right of any person to receive compensation for performance of skilled or unskilled labor for any employer shall be void, but this subsection (2) shall not apply to:

(iii) Any contract for the purchase and sale of a business or the assets of a business;

(iv) Any contract for the protection of trade secrets;

(v) Any contract provision providing for the recovery of the expense of educating and training an employee who has served an employer for a period of less than two (2) years; and

(vi) Executive and management personnel and officers and employees who constitute professional staff to executive and management personnel.

(d) Employee acknowledges that this Agreement is a contract for the protection of trade secrets under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(b), and is intended to protect the Confidential Information identified above; and that Employee is an executive and management employee or professional staff to executive or management personnel, within the meaning of Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(d).

(e) Employee agrees that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee shall not, without the Company’s written permission, directly or indirectly through another person or entity (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the six (6) months preceding such hiring, or (iii) induce or attempt to induce

10.2 Page 7 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications about the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates), (iv) directly or indirectly acquire or attempt to acquire any business which the Company or its Subsidiaries identified as a potential acquisition target during or prior to Employee’s employment with the Company (an “Acquisition Target”), or take any action to induce or attempt to induce any Acquisition Target to consummate any acquisition, investment or other similar transaction with any person or entity other than the Company or its Subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 8(e), the term “employee” shall include consultants and independent contractors of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(f) Employee agrees that the covenants made in this Section 8 shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision(s) of this Agreement and shall survive any order of a court of competent jurisdiction terminating any other provision(s) of this Agreement.

9. Trade Secrets; Remedies; Restrictions.

(a) Employee further acknowledges and agrees with the Company that Employee’s service to the Company requires the use of information, including programs, methods, techniques, and processes, that the Company and its Subsidiaries have made reasonable efforts to keep confidential and that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other person who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use (collectively, “Trade Secrets”). Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company would be irreparably damaged if Employee were to use or disclose such Trade Secrets to third parties, including any person or entity competing with the Company and its Subsidiaries or engaged in a material line of business similar to that engaged in by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Employee accordingly covenants and agrees with the Company that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or for any other person participate in any business, other than for the Company and its Subsidiaries, in which Employee would be required to employ, reveal or otherwise utilize or disclose Company Trade Secrets. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates for a period of six (6) months, Employee shall keep the Company’s Trade Secrets strictly confidential and not disclose them to any third parties.

(b) In the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the Company would suffer irreparable harm,

10.2 Page 8 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Employee breached or violated Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the periods of such restrictive covenants will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

(c) If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographic area held reasonable by the court shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 are reasonable in all respects and necessary to protect the goodwill of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that, without such protection, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ customer, distributor and supplier relations and competitive advantage would be adversely affected.

10. Employee’s Representations. Employee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Employee do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Employee is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Employee is not a party to or bound by any other employment agreement, noncompete agreement or, except in the ordinary course of business, confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity except as disclosed in writing to the Company prior to the date hereof, and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Employee hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

11. Survival. To the extent contemplated by this Agreement, the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.

Any notice provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either personally delivered, sent by reputable overnight courier service, mailed by first class mail, return receipt requested, or by facsimile transmission or electronic mail in .pdf format, to the recipient at the address below indicated:

Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in Denver, Colorado before three (3) arbitrator(s). The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Judgment on the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction, in which case each party consents to the jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Denver, Colorado. The reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of the party ultimately prevailing in such dispute shall be borne by the other party.

20. Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the prior written consent of both the Company (as approved by the Board) and Employee, and no course of conduct or course of dealing or failure or delay by any party hereto in enforcing or exercising any of the provisions of this Agreement shall affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or be deemed to be an implied waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

21. Deductions/Withholdings on Behalf of Employee. The Company and its respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Employee any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) imposed with respect to Employee’s compensation or other payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Employee’s ownership interest in the Company (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity).

10.2 Page 11 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

offers presented to Employee or of which Employee becomes aware which relate to the business of the Company Business at any time during Employee’s employment with the Company (“Corporate Opportunities”). If the Company elects not to pursue a submitted Corporate Opportunity, Employee shall have the right to accept or pursue such Corporate Opportunity.

23. Employee’s Cooperation. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall, subject to the Company reimbursing Employee for out-of-pocket expenses, cooperate with the Company and its Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by the Company (including, without limitation, Employee being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Employee’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Employee’s other permitted activities and commitments).

24. Section 409A Compliance. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to Employee and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Employee by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a termination of employment shall be deemed to have occurred at the time such termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits in connection with a termination of employment and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean a “separation from service.” Further, if, on the date of a “separation from service” (as defined in Code Section 409A), Employee is a “specified employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A), no amounts that would constitute deferred compensation payable hereunder that are subject to Code Section 409A shall be made until the earliest date on which payment is permissible under 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (the six (6)-month delay rule for specified employees). To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (A) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Employee, (B) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject

10.2 Page 12 of 14 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. For purposes of Code Section 409A, Employee’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ______, 2021 (“Effective Date”), is entered into by and between General Cannabis Corp., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), and Timothy Brown, an individual (“Employee”).

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to employ Employee and Employee wishes to be employed by the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises, terms, provisions, and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Employment.

(a) Effective as of the Effective Date, Employee is hereby employed with the Company as the Chief Visionary Officer.  Employee shall report to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

(b) The term of this Agreement (“Term”) shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) two (2) years from the Effective Date or (ii) the date on which Employee and Mr. Trevor Hoffman cumulatively sell an aggregate of $3 million of Common Stock of the Company (“Employee Stock”), the determination of which shall be made by the Company in its reasonable discretion.

2. Position and Duties.

(a) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall serve as Chief Visionary Officer of the Company and shall have such duties and authority commensurate with such position and as shall be assigned to him from time to time by the Board.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Employee shall be responsible for, among other matters: identifying new corporate opportunities for the Company and its business lines; developing a retail strategy or strategies; identifying potential acquisition targets; and identifying regulatory challenges and opportunities.

(b) Employee shall devote his best efforts, business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below). Employee shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to the Company and its Subsidiaries hereunder in good faith and to the best of his

10.2 Page 1 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

abilities in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient manner and shall comply with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ general employment policies and practices, as they may be amended from time to time; provided, that when the terms of this Agreement conflict with such general employment policies or practices, this Agreement shall control. So long as Employee is employed by the Company, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board, accept other employment or perform other services for compensation that materially interfere with Employee’s employment or with his performance hereunder.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are then, owned by the Company, directly or through one or more subsidiaries.

3. Compensation.

(d) Base Salary. Employee’s base salary shall be $400,000 per annum, as adjusted below (the “Base Salary”), which salary shall be paid by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time).  Base Salary shall be subject, at any time or from time to time, to downward adjustment such that for each dollar of sale proceeds received by Employee (or on behalf of Employee) pursuant to sales or transfers of Employee Stock, Base Salary shall be reduced as follows:

Downward adjustment = (Cumulative Proceeds from Sales of Employee Stock / $3,000,000) multiplied by Base Salary then in effect.

Employee shall notify the Company in writing upon any such sale or transfer of Employee Stock within three (3) business days of the sale thereof.

(e) Severance.  In the event of (i) a termination of Employee’s employment hereunder by the Company without Cause (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) resignation by Employee for Good Reason (as hereinafter defined), Employee shall be entitled to receive severance equal to Base Salary for the remainder of the Term, it being expressly understood and agreed that in the event Employee voluntarily leaves the employ of the Company without Good Reason or is terminated for Cause, Employee shall not receive any such severance.

4. Employee Benefits.

(e) Insurance and Employee Programs. During Employee’s employment with the

10.2 Page 2 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

Company, Employee shall be eligible for all employee benefit programs (including any retirement plan, life insurance, group medical and dental, and short-term disability policies, plans and programs) established and maintained for the benefit of the Company’s employees of comparable rank and status as Employee, subject to the provisions of such plans and programs.

(f) Expense Reimbursement. During Employee’s employment with the Company, the Company shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Employee in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment, cell phone and other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses.

(g) Paid Time Off. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall be entitled to paid vacation and holidays in accordance with the Company’s policy. Employee shall also be entitled to such periods of sick leave as is customarily provided by the Company to its employees of comparable rank and status of Employee.

(h) Withholding. All amounts payable to Employee as compensation hereunder shall be subject to all required and customary employment and income withholding obligations by the Company.

5. Termination of Employment.

(d) Accrued Obligations. If Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated, in addition to any severance to which Employee is entitled in accordance with Section 3(b), Employee shall be entitled to (A) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination, and (B) unreimbursed business expenses that are reimbursable in accordance with Section 4(b).

(e) Termination of Employee Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Employee shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and all of Employee’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company (other than vested retirement or other benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any vested rights under any equity plan of the Company or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of such termination or expiration that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination or expiration, other than those

10.2 Page 3 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA). All such salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation shall be deemed unearned and all conditions for any right to receive such payments shall be deemed unsatisfied.

(f) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

(vii) “Cause” shall be determined by the Board and shall mean with respect to Employee one or more of the following: (A) Employee’s breach of his covenants contained in this Agreement, in any material respect, or any breach of fiduciary duty owed to the Company; (B) Employee’s willful failure or refusal to perform the duties and responsibilities lawfully required to be performed by Employee under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise reasonably requested by the Company; (C) Employee’s failure to follow the directives of the Board in any material respect, which breach remains substantially uncured for fifteen (15) or more days after Employee’s receipt of written notice from the Company of such breach; (D) Employee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (E) Employee’s willful commission of an act of dishonesty adversely affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or the commission of an act constituting common law fraud or a felony or the commission of any other act or omission involving misappropriation, embezzlement, dishonesty, or theft with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (F) any willful or intentional act or omission materially aiding or abetting a competitor or supplier of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the disadvantage or detriment of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(viii) “Good Reason” shall mean (A) the failure of the Company to pay any Base Salary, bonus payments, or additional compensation or benefits hereunder in accordance with this Agreement; (B) the assignment to Employee without Employee’s prior written consent of duties substantially inconsistent with Employee’s title; (C) any material adverse change in Employee’s duties, responsibilities, or title without Employee’s prior written consent; or (D) the relocation of Employee’s principal place of performance hereunder to a location more than 25 miles from its location immediately before the Effective Date.

6. Confidential Information.

(e) Employee acknowledges that the continued success of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information. All such confidential, proprietary and trade secret information now existing or developed during the term of Employee’s employment hereunder will be referred to in this Agreement as

10.2 Page 4 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

“Confidential Information.” Confidential Information will be interpreted broadly to include all information of any sort (whether embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ business and (ii) not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Employee during the course of his performance under this Agreement concerning the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or affiliates’ business or industry of which Employee becomes aware during Employee’s employment with the Company, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Employee’s course of performance under this Agreement, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, confidential employee lists and contact information, compensation and incentive structures and strategies, confidential information concerning sales, including volumes, pricing, and margins, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Employee agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Employee’s improper acts or omissions to act or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Employee agrees that he shall not disclose any Confidential Information after his employment ends. If requested by the Company in writing, Employee agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of Employee’s employment with the Company, or at any other time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof and all electronic data residing on any electronic device) relating to the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under his control, provided that Employee may retain copies of Employee’s personnel information, such as performance evaluations, payroll information and the like.

(f) During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall not use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Employee shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to

10.2 Page 5 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

Employee’s and that is (x) common knowledge in the industry or (y) is otherwise legally in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. If at any time during employment with the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, Employee believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Employee may have to former employers or other persons, Employee shall promptly advise the Board so that Employee’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(g) Employee shall promptly notify the Company of any intended or unintended, unauthorized disclosure or use of any trade secrets or Confidential Information by Employee or any other person or entity of which Employee becomes aware. Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company in the procurement of any protection of the Company’s rights to or in any of the trade secrets or Confidential Information.

(h) Employee understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During Employee’s employment with the Company and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 6(a) above, Employee will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company or such Subsidiaries and affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates, such Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by the Board’s written consent.

7. Employee Proprietary Information Agreement. Upon reasonable request by Company, Employee shall execute a separate agreement between the parties hereto made a part hereof covering, among other things, non-disclosure and assignment of inventions.

8. Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(g) In recognition of the importance to the Company of the preservation and protection of its intellectual property, name and goodwill and in consideration for employment and/or continued employment, access to or continued access to Confidential Information, training, compensation and benefits, as well as other good and valuable consideration provided by the Company to Employee, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Employee, the parties agree that

10.2 Page 6 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

during Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for Cause or without Good Reason (the “Non-Compete”) Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, as a partner, joint venturer, member, lender, employer, employee, advisor, contractor, consultant, shareholder, principal or agent, engage in, control, advise with respect to, manage or furnish consulting or other services to, nor have any interest in, any business relating to the cultivation, production and retail sides of the cannabis business in the States of Colorado and Oregon. The Non-Compete shall not prohibit Employee from (i) engaging in any such activities upon the mutual agreement of Employee and the Company; or (ii) owning less than 5% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation.

(h) Employee acknowledges that the foregoing geographic restriction on competition is fair and reasonable, given the geographic scope of Company’s business operations and the nature of Employee’s position with the Company. Employee also acknowledges that while employed by the Company, Employee will have access to information that would be valuable or useful to Company’s competitors, and therefore acknowledges that the foregoing restrictions on Employee’s future employment and business activities are fair and reasonable. Employee acknowledges and is prepared for the possibility that Employee’s standard of living may be reduced during the noncompetition period, and assumes and accepts any risk associated with that possibility.

(i) Employee acknowledges the following provisions of Colorado law, set forth in Colorado Revised Statutes § 8-2-113(2):

Any covenant not to compete which restricts the right of any person to receive compensation for performance of skilled or unskilled labor for any employer shall be void, but this subsection (2) shall not apply to:

(ix) Any contract for the purchase and sale of a business or the assets of a business;

(x) Any contract for the protection of trade secrets;

(xi) Any contract provision providing for the recovery of the expense of educating and training an employee who has served an employer for a period of less than two (2) years; and

(xii) Executive and management personnel and officers and employees who constitute professional staff to executive and management personnel.

10.2 Page 7 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

(j) Employee acknowledges that this Agreement is a contract for the protection of trade secrets under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(b), and is intended to protect the Confidential Information identified above; and that Employee is an executive and management employee or professional staff to executive or management personnel, within the meaning of Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113(2)(d).

(k) Employee agrees that during Employee’s employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee shall not, without the Company’s written permission, directly or indirectly through another person or entity (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any person who was an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time during the six (6) months preceding such hiring, or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to cease doing business with the Company or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications about the Company or its Subsidiaries or affiliates), (iv) directly or indirectly acquire or attempt to acquire any business which the Company or its Subsidiaries identified as a potential acquisition target during or prior to Employee’s employment with the Company (an “Acquisition Target”), or take any action to induce or attempt to induce any Acquisition Target to consummate any acquisition, investment or other similar transaction with any person or entity other than the Company or its Subsidiaries. For purposes of this Section 8(e), the term “employee” shall include consultants and independent contractors of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(l) Employee agrees that the covenants made in this Section 8 shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision(s) of this Agreement and shall survive any order of a court of competent jurisdiction terminating any other provision(s) of this Agreement.

9. Trade Secrets; Remedies; Restrictions.

(d) Employee further acknowledges and agrees with the Company that Employee’s service to the Company requires the use of information, including programs, methods, techniques, and processes, that the Company and its Subsidiaries have made reasonable efforts to keep confidential and that derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other person who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use (collectively, “Trade Secrets”). Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company would be

10.2 Page 8 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

irreparably damaged if Employee were to use or disclose such Trade Secrets to third parties, including any person or entity competing with the Company and its Subsidiaries or engaged in a material line of business similar to that engaged in by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Employee accordingly covenants and agrees with the Company that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or for any other person participate in any business, other than for the Company and its Subsidiaries, in which Employee would be required to employ, reveal or otherwise utilize or disclose Company Trade Secrets. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement, throughout Employee’s employment, and after such employment terminates for a period of six (6) months, Employee shall keep the Company’s Trade Secrets strictly confidential and not disclose them to any third parties.

(e) In the event of the breach or a threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the Company would suffer irreparable harm, and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Employee breached or violated Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9, the periods of such restrictive covenants will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

(f) If, at the time of enforcement of Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 of this Agreement, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographic area held reasonable by the court shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 6, 7, 8, or 9 are reasonable in all respects and necessary to protect the goodwill of the businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that, without such protection, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ customer, distributor and supplier relations and competitive advantage would be adversely affected.

10. Employee’s Representations. Employee hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Employee do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Employee is a party or by which he is bound, (ii) Employee is not a party to or bound by any other employment agreement, noncompete agreement or, except in the ordinary course of business, confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity except as disclosed in writing to the Company prior to the date hereof, and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Employee, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Employee

10.2 Page 9 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by Employee. Except as expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence, Employee shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any of Employee’s rights or obligations hereunder.

18. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, notwithstanding any state’s choice-of-law rules to the contrary.

21. Deductions/Withholdings on Behalf of Employee. The Company and its respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Employee any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) imposed with respect to Employee’s compensation or other payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Employee’s ownership interest in the Company (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity).

22. Corporate Opportunity. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers presented to Employee or of which Employee becomes aware which relate to the business of the Company within the States of Colorado and Oregon (“Corporate Opportunities”). If the Company elects not to pursue a submitted Corporate Opportunity, Employee shall have the right to accept or pursue such Corporate Opportunity.

23. Employee’s Cooperation. During Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee shall, subject to the Company reimbursing Employee for out-of-pocket expenses, cooperate with the Company and its Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by the Company (including, without limitation, Employee being available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Employee’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with

10.2 Page 12 of 15 (4.21.21 - 21:54)

Employee’s other permitted activities and commitments).

24. Section 409A Compliance. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to Employee and the Company of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Employee by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a termination of employment shall be deemed to have occurred at the time such termination constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits in connection with a termination of employment and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean a “separation from service.” Further, if, on the date of a “separation from service” (as defined in Code Section 409A), Employee is a “specified employee” (as defined in Code Section 409A), no amounts that would constitute deferred compensation payable hereunder that are subject to Code Section 409A shall be made until the earliest date on which payment is permissible under 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (the six (6)-month delay rule for specified employees). To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (A) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Employee, (B) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. For purposes of Code Section 409A, Employee’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.
