WHEREAS, the Company and Executive previously entered into an employment agreement dated January 15, 2015 (the “Original Employment Agreement”); and


WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to amend and restate the Original Employment Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Executive agrees that she shall: (i) faithfully and to the best of Executive’s  ability perform all of the duties that may be required of Executive   pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (ii) devote substantially all of Executive’s business time and attention to the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder; and (iii) not engage in any other business, profession or occupation for compensation or otherwise which would conflict or interfere with the performance of such services either directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of the CEO.


(c)        Place of Performance. The principal place of Executive’s employment shall be at the Company’s principal offices, which are currently located in Chester, NY.  In addition, Executive may be required to travel elsewhere on Company business.


2.         At-Will Employment.

3.         Compensation and Related Matters.


(a)        Base Salary. The Company shall pay to Executive (i) an annual base salary $250,000 (the “Base Salary”), less such deductions as are required by law or that Executive may elect in accordance with Company policy and procedure, payable in equal periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practice. The Base Salary shall be prorated for any partial year of employment on the basis of a 365-day year. The Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually by the Board and may be adjusted (but not decreased) from time to time in the Board’s sole discretion.


(b)        Annual Bonuses. For each complete calendar year, Executive shall be eligible to earn an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) of 30% of the Base Salary in accordance with Company policy and procedure for granting of specified executive bonus, based on achievement of objectives which will be set by the Company as part of the annual budget process. The Annual Bonus shall be paid by March 15 following the applicable bonus year, provided that Executive is then employed by the Company and has not provided notice of termination without Good Reason prior to such date. The Annual Bonus may be paid on a pro rata basis for partial achievement of these objectives in the sole discretion of the Company. The Annual Bonus shall not be paid if the Executive is terminated any time for Cause (as defined below).


(c)        Expenses. Executive shall receive reimbursement from the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive in performing services hereunder; provided that, in each case, that such expenses are accounted for in accordance with the standard policies and procedures established by the Company for reimbursement of expenses.


(d)        Vacation. Executive shall be entitled to three weeks of paid vacation per calendar year (pro-rated according to the Company’s standard policies and procedures related to accrual of vacation and/or paid time off), to be taken at such times and for such periods as shall not interfere with the duties required to be rendered by Executive hereunder. Executive shall not be paid for accrued but unused vacation or paid time off upon termination of Executive’ s employment for any reason, unless otherwise required by law.


(e)        Other Benefits. Executive shall be entitled to participate in such life insurance, medical, dental disability, pension and retirement plans and other programs as may be approved from time to time by the Company for the benefit of its executives, except any such plan or program with respect to which Executive voluntarily executes a legally effective waiver. Nothing herein shall affect the Company’s right to amend, modify or terminate any retirement or other benefit plan at any time for any reason.


(f)        Indemnification and Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. The Company shall indemnify the Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. A directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (or policies) shall be kept in place, during Executive’s employment and thereafter for the duration of any period in which a civil, equitable, criminal or administrative proceeding may be brought against the Executive, providing coverage to the Executive that is no less favorable to the Executive in any respect (including with respect to scope, exclusions, amounts, and deductibles) than the coverage then being provided with respect to periods after the Effective Date to any other present or former senior executive or director of the Company.
