Interstate Battery pursuant to which, among other things, we agreed to compensate Interstate Battery should either Stephen Clarke,
our former chief executive officer, or Selwyn Mould, our current chief operating officer, no longer hold such positions or no
longer devote substantially all of their business time and attention to our company, whether as a result of resignation, death,
disability or otherwise (such an event referred to as a &ldquo;key-man event&rdquo;). Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement,
we agreed to pay Interstate Battery $2,000,000, per occurrence, if either officer is subject to a key-man event during the two
years following May 18, 2016. We also agreed to pay Interstate Battery $2,000,000 if either or both officers are subject to a

associated with Mr. Mould by (i) paying Interstate Battery a one-time fee of $500,000, payable by us in cash and (ii) agreeing
