Chief
Financial Officer Offer Letter
On
August 16, 2026, ChronoScale Corporation, a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of ChronoScale Holdings Corporation,
a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) and Jerome Wong, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, entered into an Offer
of Continued Employment (the “Offer Letter”) as well as an Employee Non-Disclosure, Invention Assignment and Restrictive
Covenants Agreement (the “Covenants Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Offer Letter, Mr. Wong will continue to serve
as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective as of August 16, 2026, or such other title as the Board of Directors
(the “Board”) of the Company or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company may determine from time to time, and will be eligible
to receive an annual base salary of $400,000 (the “Base Salary”), subject to review by the Company from time to time, and
shall also be eligible for an annual performance bonus with a target amount of 60% of his annual base salary. In addition, the Offer
Letter provides that Mr. Wong will receive a “true-up” in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the base salary that
would have been payable to him from May 5, 2026, through August 16, 2026, had his base salary been increased to $400,000 effective
May 5, 2026, and (ii) the aggregate base salary actually paid to Mr. Wong with respect to such period. In addition, the Offer Letter
contemplates a grant to Mr. Wong of an award of 300,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) subject to time-based vesting conditions,
as set forth in the Offer Letter. The grant of the RSUs was approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board in conjunction with its
approval of the Offer Letter.
In
addition, the Offer Letter provides that (A) in the event of a Qualifying CIC Termination during the Change in Control Period, Mr. Wong
will receive: (i) an amount in cash equal to nine months of his then-current annual base salary, payable in a lump sum, (ii) continued
coverage under the Company’s group health plan at active employee rates for up to nine months following his date of termination,
and (iii) accelerated vesting of the Initial Tranche of his RSUs, and (B) thereafter, if Mr. Wong’s employment is terminated without
Cause, Mr. Wong will receive an amount in cash equal to six months of Mr. Wong’s then-current annual base salary, payable in equal
installments in the form of salary continuation. All of such payments and benefits are subject to Mr. Wong’s execution, delivery,
and non-revocation of a general release of claims in a form provided by the Company (the “Release”) and Mr. Wong’s
continued compliance with the terms of the Offer Letter, Covenants Agreement, and Release. All terms used but not defined in this paragraph
are defined in the Offer Letter (attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1).
Under
the Covenants Agreement, Mr. Wong is bound by an indefinite confidentiality obligation, a non-competition covenant during employment,
a non-solicitation covenant with respect to Company personnel and business partners during employment, assignment of intellectual property,
and indefinite non-disparagement obligations.
The
foregoing description of the Offer Letter is not complete and is subject to the full text of the Offer Letter, a copy of which is included
as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
