This letter is to confirm our understanding with respect to your future employment by KushCo Holdings or any present or future parent, subsidiary, affiliate or successor thereof (collectively, the “Company”). The terms and conditions agreed to in this letter are hereinafter referred to as the “Offer”. In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Offer, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged, we have agreed as follows:

Subject to the terms hereof, your employment hereunder will commence on November 26^th, 2018 (the “Commencement Date”). Your employment with the Company is deemed to be “At Will” and can be terminated by the Company or you at any time without prior notice or without reason.

The principal location at which you will perform such services will be Garden Grove, CA.

Compensation

While you are employed hereunder, you will be paid as an exempt status employee with a base salary at the annual rate of $250,000.00 (the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary will be payable bi-weekly installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices as in effect. The Company will deduct from each such installment any amounts required to be deducted or withheld under applicable law or under any employee benefit plan in which you participate.

You will be eligible to earn up to a total of $100,000.00 in bonus compensation annually and any other discretionary incentives as approved by the Board and the KushCo Holdings’ Leadership Team. Following six (6) months from the Commencement Date of this agreement, you will be eligible to receive $50,000.00 in guaranteed bonus compensation based on KIPs to be outlined following the Commencement Date. The remaining $50,000.00 will be paid based on the standard fiscal year bonus cycle. Following fiscal year 2019, all bonuses will be paid in accordance with the standard annual schedule.

Equity Compensation

On November 26^th, 2018 subject to Board and any other necessary approvals, you will be granted 600,000 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a strike price equivalent to the closing stock price on the date of grant.
