WHEREAS, Company and Consultant are parties to an Executive Employment Agreement, dated July 1, 2021 as amended by the parties (the “Employment Agreement”);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

Article I - Services

Consultant shall perform the services set forth in the Scope of Services, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Services”). Contractor reserves the right in its sole discretion to make such changes in work, specifications, or level of effort, as may be necessary or desirable and any difference in contract price resulting from such changes must be agreed upon in writing by Contractor before the work is begun.

Article II - Payment

The compensation, the period of performance and timing of payment for the Services are set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto. No tax withholding will be effected on any payments made by the Contractor to Consultant. Consultant will be solely liable and responsible for the payment of Consultant’s taxes arising as a result of any payment hereunder including without limitation any unexpected or adverse tax consequence. This Agreement is intended to be exempt from the requirements of section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (“Section 409A”) but in any event, Contractor shall have no liability to Consultant or any other person for any taxes, penalties or interest imposed by Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A, Consultant experienced a separation from service with Contractor on the Effective Date.

Article III - Status as Independent Contractor

Both Contractor and Consultant expressly acknowledge and agree that Consultant is an independent contractor and shall not act as or be an agent for or employee of Contractor. All of Consultant’s activities in performing the Services shall be at Consultant’s sole risk and except as expressly provided herein, Consultant shall not be entitled to Workers Compensation or any other benefits or insurance protection provided by Contractor to their agents and employees. Subject to Article IV, as an independent contractor, Consultant shall be solely responsible for determining the means and methods for performing the Services. Consultant shall be solely responsible for complying with and paying any and all taxes applicable to compensation received under this Agreement.

Article IV - Standard of Care

Consultant agrees to perform the Services with that standard of care, skill and diligence normally provided by a professional person in the performance of similar services. Consultant shall furnish personnel having the appropriate experience and knowledge in order to perform their assigned tasks and duties in an efficient, competent and timely manner in accordance with generally accepted industry standards. Consultant expressly acknowledges that Contractor will rely upon the competence and completeness of Consultants’ Services in utilizing the results of such Services in fulfilling their contractual commitments to third parties. In no event shall Consultant retain, hire or employ the services of subcontractors, third parties or others without the express written authorization and approval of Contractor.

Article V - Use of Materials; Confidentiality

Section 1 - Use of Materials.

Contractor shall own all rights to any and all work products, patents, processes, copyrights, studies, flow charts, diagrams, devices, programs, source codes, inventions, original works of authorship, know-how, and other tangible or intangible material or data of any nature developed by Consultant or as a result of any of Consultant’s Services. Any work product generated by Consultant hereunder shall be deemed a work made for hire. If any of such work product shall be deemed other than a work for hire, Consultant hereby assigns to Contractor all rights, title and interest in and to such work product. Consultant agrees to execute and deliver such documents and instruments as Contractor may deem necessary and appropriate to transfer to Contractor any and all rights, title, and interest, including copyrights, Consultant has in any such work.

Section 2 - Confidentiality.

Consultant shall not publish, disclose, or otherwise divulge Confidential Information to any person, at any time during or after the term of this Agreement, without Contractor’s prior express written consent. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean non-public, confidential or proprietary information belonging to Contractor.

In the event that Consultant becomes legally compelled (by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information, Consultant shall give Contractor prompt prior written notice of such requirement so that Contractor may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or that Contractor waives compliance with the terms hereof, Consultant agrees to provide only that limited portion of the Confidential Information that it is advised by written opinion of counsel is legally required and to exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information.

Consultant represents that its performance of all terms of this Agreement as a consultant of Contractor has not breached and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by Consultant in confidence or trust prior or subsequent to the commencement of the Agreement, and Consultant will not disclose to Contractor, or induce Contractor to use, any inventions, confidential or proprietary information or material belonging to any previous employer or any other party.

The parties agree that in the event of a breach of this Confidentiality provision, Contractor shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity. Consultant shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Contractor, for the violation of this Confidentiality provision by any of its representatives. This Confidentiality provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Consultant agrees that during the term of the Agreement, Consultant shall not either directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of Contractor’s employees or other consultants to terminate their relationship with Contractor, or take away such employees or consultants, or attempt to solicit, induce, recruit, encourage or take away employees or consultants of Contractor, either for itself or for any other person or entity. Further, during the term of this Agreement, Consultant shall not solicit any licensor to or customer of Contractor or licensee of Contractor’s products, in each case, that are known to Consultant, with respect to any business, products or services that are competitive to the products or services offered by Contractor or under development.

Red Cat Holdings Reports Financial Results for Fiscal Third Quarter 2024 and Provides Corporate Update

Red Cat reports record revenue for the company in Fiscal Third Quarter 2024, the third consecutive quarter of double-digit sequential growth

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, Mar. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RCAT) (“Red Cat” or “Company”), a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government, and commercial operations, reports its financial results for the second quarter ended March 18, 2024, and provides a business update.

Operating Highlights:

Financial Highlights:

"Red Cat has continued to meet global customer demand resulting in record third quarter revenue that is more than 250 percent above the same period in our previous fiscal year," said Jeff Thompson, Red Cat Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The Teal 2 drone has quickly become the small uncrewed system of choice and our ability to scale production has been well received by our domestic and international customers. We believe we are well positioned for the U.S. Department of Defense Replicator Initiative and the U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance Program of Record being awarded later this year, in which we are one of two finalists."

"With the increasing demand for our drone solutions with U.S. Defense and Security Forces and NATO Allies, our growing pipeline and strong backlog, Red Cat is positioned for continued growth.  Our guidance for the upcoming fourth quarter of $7 million will be another record quarter and continued double digit sequential growth into fiscal year 2025," Thompson added.

“We are reporting record revenues again for the third quarter of fiscal 2024,” stated Leah Lunger, Interim Chief Financial Officer. “Having closed the sale of our Consumer segment, we look forward to focusing exclusively on the expanding opportunities for our Enterprise segment, such as external partnerships, entrance into new global markets, and delivering Army prototypes between now and the beginning of fiscal 2025.”

Retirement of Chief Financial Officer and Appointment of Leah Lunger as Interim Chief Financial Officer

“With the sale of the Consumer Segment completed and the focus solely on Teal Drones going forward, it’s a perfect time to slightly accelerate my planned retirement date,” stated Joseph Hernon. “I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with Leah over the past three plus years and congratulate her on a hard-earned, well-deserved promotion.”

“Joseph and I have worked together for more than 12 years at two technology companies, and I thank him for deferring his previously planned retirement for four years to assist in the maturation of Red Cat from an early-stage development,” said Jeff Thompson. “He built an All-Star corporate finance team and left us in good hands.”
