2. Services. During the Term, Consultant shall provide the services described in Exhibit B hereto to Company (the “Services”). Exhibit B may be amended from time to time during the Term by written consent of both Parties. To the extent of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and Exhibit B, the terms of this Agreement shall supersede and be controlling. Such Services shall be performed at times and places as shall be mutually convenient for Company and Consultant, and Consultant shall exercise independent judgment as to the method for accomplishing the Services. The nature, extent, period of performance, and limitations of the Services provided will be mutually agreed to by Company and Consultant. Consultant shall: (i) devote whatever time, effort and resources may be necessary or required to provide Services hereunder in a professional manner; and (ii) at all times in the performance of the Services, comply with all applicable laws, codes and regulations and the reasonable and lawful instructions, standards of conduct, policies and procedures established and/or promulgated by Company, in written or electronic form, which may be amended from time to time upon written notice to Consultant.

-3-

and terminate its own employees; (ii) maintain all licenses and permits necessary to perform the Services; and (iii) perform the Services in a timely and professional manner.

3. Compensation.

A. Fees. For the services described in Exhibit B, during the Term of this Agreement Company agrees to pay Consultant a sum equal to Twenty Per Cent (20%) (the “Base Fees”) of any increase (the “ANI Increase”) in Company’s quarterly adjusted net income from operations (the “ANI”) for the aggregate of Company’s Minnesota and Maryland operations over the Q4 (October 1 through December 31) 2022 ANI Baseline (as defined in Exhibit C) plus any annual increase in CPI-U (all items) for the period between June 1, 2023, and the date of calculation for such operations. Base Fees shall be calculated for each of Company’s fiscal quarters using ANI as described in, and calculated in accordance with, Exhibit C. If Company determines, acting reasonably and in good faith, that the quarterly ANI Increase for a given fiscal quarter is at least Fifty Per Cent (50%) attributable to Consultant’s services described in Exhibit B, Company shall pay Consultant an additional sum up to Seven and a Half Per Cent (7.5%) of ANI Increase (the “Additional Base Fees”). If Company determines, acting reasonably and in good faith, that the quarterly ANI Increase for a given fiscal quarter is at least Seventy-Five Per Cent (75%) attributable to Consultant’s services described in Exhibit B, Company shall pay Consultant an additional sum up to Seven and a Half Per Cent (7.5%) of ANI Increase (the “Final Additional Base Fees”). For the purposes of calculating Additional Base Fees and Final Additional Base Fees, Company shall provide Consultant with its determination of the ANI Increase attributable to Consultant’s services within thirty (30) days of the end of Company’s fiscal quarter (the “Fee Attribution Statement”) on a form mutually agreeable to both Parties. Consultant shall have ten (10) days to accept or dispute the Fee Attribution Statement or dispute Company’s calculation pursuant to Section 3.B. If Consultant does not respond to the Fee Attribution Statement within the ten (10) day period (the “Fee Attribution Statement Review Period”), Consultant shall forfeit any dispute rights and Company shall make any payment for Additional Base Fees and Final Additional Base Fees in accordance with its calculation set forth on the Fee Attribution Statement.

B. Fee Disputes. If Consultant disputes Company’s Fee Attribution Statement, the Parties acknowledge and agree that they will work in good faith to resolve the dispute. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that if they are not able to agree upon a Fee Attribution Statement within twenty (20) days following the expiration of the Fee Attribution Statement Review Period, the Parties will resolve the dispute by binding arbitration, using a single arbitrator acceptable to both Parties, and employing American Arbitration Association rules for commercial disputes. The Parties agree that the results of the arbitration will be final and binding on the Parties and may be entered in any court with jurisdiction thereof. Each Party shall pay Fifty Per Cent (50%) of the cost and expense of the arbitrator and arbitration process, excluding each Party’s legal fees and related costs, which each Party shall bear separately. Notwithstanding the existence of any dispute over Additional Base Fees and/or Final Base Fees, Company shall remit payment of the Base Fees in accordance with subsection 3.D.

C. Renewal Term and Final Term Base Fee Reductions. If Company pays Base Fees, Additional Base Fees, and Final Additional Base Fees in excess of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00) in the aggregate during the Initial Term and this Agreement renews for the Renewal Term, then the Base Fees payable to Consultant by Company shall be reduced to Fifteen Per Cent (15%) for the Renewal Term. In addition, if Company pays Base Fees, Additional Base Fees, and Final Additional Base Fees in excess of Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000.00) in the aggregate during the Renewal Term and this Agreement renews for the Final Term, then the Base Fees payable to Consultant by Company shall be further reduced to Ten Per Cent (10%) for the Final Term. A form 1099 shall be issued each calendar year for all payments made and other compensation given, if required by applicable law.

D. Payment. Company shall pay Base Fees to Consultant for each of the fiscal quarters ending March 31, June 30, and September 30 within thirty (30) days after the end of each such quarter. Company

-4-

shall pay Base Fees to Consultant for each fiscal quarter ending December 31 within sixty (60) days after Company’s fiscal quarter and year end. Company shall pay any Additional Base Fees and Final Additional Base Fees, if achieved, to Consultant within Fifteen (15) days after the determination of the final amount thereof pursuant to subsection 3.A. or 3.B. The Parties agree that, notwithstanding the Effective Date, the first Base Fee due to Consultant under this Agreement shall be based on the ANI Increase for the fiscal quarter beginning January 1, 2023, and ending March 31, 2023, as compensation for Services provided by Consultant to Company during such period under the terms of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Parties, which Base Fee Company shall pay to Consultant on or before July 1, 2023.

E. Annual Review of Payments. Concurrently with filing its annual audited financial statements on EDGAR and/or SEDAR for each fiscal year during the Term, Company shall deliver a copy of such audited financial statements to Consultant together with (i) Company’s calculation of ANI for each quarter during such prior fiscal year and the ANI for the fiscal year ended the prior December 31, in each case, in accordance with Exhibit C and based on such annual audited financial statements, and (ii) Company’s determination of any over- or under-payment of Base Fees, Additional Base Fees, and Final Additional Base Fees during the prior fiscal year based thereon (collectively, the “Annual True-Up Report”). Consultant shall have thirty (30) days after it receives the Annual True-Up Report to accept Company’s year-end reconciliation as set forth in such Annual True-Up Report or to give notice of a dispute of such year-end reconciliation pursuant to Section 3.B. If Company has, in the aggregate, overpaid Base Fees, Additional Base Fees, or Final Additional Base Fees to Consultant during the prior fiscal year, Company may offset the overpayment from the next payment(s) of Base Fees due to Consultant. If Consultant was underpaid by Company Base Fees, Additional Base Fees, or Final Additional Base Fees, in the aggregate for such fiscal year, Company shall pay Consultant the amount of the underpayment, without interest or penalty, pursuant to the terms of subsection 3.D.

Except as

-5-

required by law, Company shall not withhold any sums from the payments to be pursuant to Section 3 for Social Security, FICA, unemployment, employment, or other federal, state, or local tax liabilities or contributions, and all withholdings, liabilities, and contributions shall be solely the responsibility of Consultant.

7. Restrictive Covenants. As an inducement for each Party to enter into this Agreement, each Party covenants and agrees as follows:

A. Non-Solicitation. During the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending with the expiration of the Term or the earlier termination of this Agreement for any reason (“Restrictive Term”), neither Party (the “Restricted Party”) will, directly or indirectly, on Restricted Party’s behalf or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person:

| (i) | Solicit, attempt to solicit (whether or not said solicitation is initiated by Restricted Party), induce, or attempt to induce the business of any person or entity who is a customer or who Restricted Party knows or reasonably should know is a prospective customer of the other Party;

| (ii) | Cause, induce, attempt to cause or induce, solicit, or attempt to solicit (whether or not said solicitation is initiated by Restricted Party) any customer, supplier, subcontractor, tradesman, lessor, licensor, licensee, employee, consultant or any other person or entity with a business relationship with the other Party to cease doing business with the other Party, to deal with any competitor of the other Party or in any way interfere with any such person’s or entities’ relationship with the other Party; or

| (iii) | Recruit, solicit, hire, retain or attempt to recruit, solicit (whether or not said solicitation is initiated by Restricted Party), hire or retain any employee or independent contractors of the other Party or in any way interfere with the relationship between the other Party and any of its employees or independent contractors. The Parties agree that, with respect to this subsection (iii) (and only this subsection (iii)), the Restrictive Term shall continue after the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year;

B. Extension of Term. In the event of a breach by Restricted Party of any covenant set forth in Sections 7.A of this Agreement, the Restrictive Term of such covenant will be extended by the period of the duration of such breach.

C. Modification. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be enforced to the maximum extent allowed by law. Therefore, if a final, non-appealable judgment of a court or tribunal of competent

-6-

jurisdiction (“Judicial Authority”) determines that any term or provision contained in Section 7.A is invalid or unenforceable, then the Parties agree that: (i) such provisions shall be rendered invalid, unenforceable, or void only to the extent that such final, non-appealable determination of such Judicial Authority finds such provision unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable with respect to Restricted Party, and (ii) the Judicial Authority making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographic area, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. This Agreement will be deemed amended and enforceable within the jurisdiction of such Judicial Authority as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, as originally drafted, in all other jurisdictions. This Section 7.C is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve each Party’s legitimate business interests and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on Restricted Party, or any of Restricted Party’s affiliates.

8. Confidential Information.

A. Defined. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means all information in whatever form (whether oral, written, electronic, paper, or other medium), concerning a Party (the “Disclosing Party”), furnished by or on behalf of the Disclosing Party to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), or learned by the Receiving Party as a result of the Services, at any time (whether before or after the date of this Agreement) and in each case, regardless of the manner in which the medium in or on which such information is furnished, stored or displayed, including without limitation: (i) the occurrence and subject matter of the Services; (ii) all information, products, plans, methods, ideas, intellectual property, trade secrets, compensation data, financial information, marketing strategies and information, programs and services, inventions, processes, designs, sketches, drawings, business opportunities, projections, developments, know-how, formulae, computer software and programs, (including all code) and intellectual property, prospects, pending projects and proposals, pricing information, technical data, customer and supplier lists, customer prospect lists, product and equipment designs or enhancements, concepts, inventions and ideas, and other developments and techniques, other trade secrets or confidential or proprietary information, whether patentable or copyrightable or not, and other information that is not generally known or readily ascertainable by other persons. Written information supplied to the Receiving Party may be marked “CONFIDENTIAL” when feasible, but the failure to so mark such information shall not be deemed a waiver by the Disclosing Party of confidentiality.

Internal dissemination of Confidential Information by the Receiving Party shall be limited to those representatives who are directly involved in the Services and whose duties justify their need to know such information, provided that the Receiving Party shall be liable for any breach of this Section 8 by its representatives and affiliates to which it discloses Confidential Information. The Receiving Party shall

-7-

promptly notify the Disclosing Party in writing of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information which may come to the Receiving Party’s attention.

D. Ownership. The Receiving Party agrees that: (i) Confidential Information and all goodwill associated with or symbolized by such Confidential Information are and shall remain the sole property of the Disclosing Party; (ii) no action by the Disclosing Party shall be deemed to constitute or result in an assignment of any Confidential Information to the Receiving Party or the creation of any equitable or other interest herein or to grant the Receiving Party the right to use the Confidential Information except as contemplated herein; (iii) all legal rights in the Confidential Information, including the right to patent any technology arising therefrom, shall belong exclusively to the Disclosing Party; and (iv) this Agreement does not constitute a license of any Confidential Information.

E. Mandatory Disclosure. In the event the Receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall, to the extent legally permitted, promptly give notice to the Disclosing Party so that the Disclosing Party may seek to quash such compulsion or to obtain an appropriate protective order. In the event the Disclosing Party does not (or seek to) quash such compulsion, and regardless of whether a protective order is obtained, the Receiving Party shall, without violating this Section 8, disclose only such limited portion of the Confidential Information as is required to avoid sanction by the court having jurisdiction of such matter.

F. Return of Documents / Cessation of Use. In the event the Agreement is terminated for any reason, or at any time within five (5) days following the Disclosing Party’s written request, the Receiving Party shall: (i) promptly return (or upon the Disclosing Party’s written direction, destroy) all documentation (whether original or copies whether electronic or other medium) and other materials (whether tangible or stored in any storage medium, and whether prepared by the Receiving Party or the Disclosing Party from information supplied by the Disclosing Party) containing any Confidential Information to the Receiving Party without retaining any copies thereof; and (ii) immediately cease any use of the Confidential Information.

EXHIBIT C

to

Independent Consultant Agreement

Following is a description of the calculation of Adjusted Net Income (“ANI”) for purposes of the Consulting Agreement between Company and Consultant. Consultant’s compensation will be based on the improvement in Company’s quarterly ANI for its markets in MN and MD relative to a preset baseline.

| 1. | Quarterly Consolidating Income Statements

ANI shall be calculated by market and operating entity in order to measure the contribution from the MN and MD markets. Company’s Accounting department shall be responsible for providing Consultant a consolidating income statement every quarter, which will match Company’s publicly-filed, GAAP-compliant income statement on a consolidated basis.

| 2. | Calculation of ANI

Quarterly ANI is calculated for each market with the following steps:

| ● | Revenue

| ● | Minus product costs

| ● | Minus selling, general and administrative expenses

| ● | Minus interest expense, for operating entities only

| ○ | Corporate interest expense is excluded

| ● | Plus (minus) other income (expenses)

| ● | Minus current income tax expense

| ● | Minus inventory adjustment, as defined below

| ● | Minus CapEx adjustment, as defined below

The following line items from Company’s publicly-filed income statements are excluded from the calculation:

| ● | Inventory valuation adjustments

| ● | Stock-based compensation expenses

| ● | Depreciation

| ● | Amortization

| ● | Impairment of long-lived assets

| ● | Loss on sale of property and equipment

| ● | Gain on disposal of assets

| ● | Deferred income tax expense

| ● | Any other extraordinary or nonrecurring items that may arise in the future, as mutually agreed upon by both Parties in good faith.

Defined terms from the calculated are defined below:

| ● | “Inventory Adjustment”: this adjustment is intended to capture the cash flow impact of Company’s accumulation or depletion of inventory. It is calculated as the quarterly change in inventory from the balance sheet, plus the inventory valuation adjustment from the income statement.

C-1

| ● | “Capital Expenditures Adjustment”: This adjustment is intended to deduct a depreciation charge for any capital expenditures that Consultant recommends to Company, which Company has the absolute right to accept or deny in its sole discretion. For any such recommended capital expenditures, the amount of depreciation charged against the asset in accordance with GAAP guidelines will be deducted from ANI for the duration of the Consulting Agreement.

| ● | “Baseline ANI” is the amount of USD$2,140,260, which is equal to ANI for the MN and MD markets in Q4 2022.

Other notes on the calculation of ANI:

| ● | The Company’s current income tax expense is calculated on a consolidated basis for MN, NY, and MD, so it must be manually allocated to the MN and MD markets based on proportional gross profit for the quarter.
