WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive are parties to an Employment Agreement dated as of June 20, 2013 (the “Employment Agreement”), between the parties and pursuant to which Executive serves as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer; and
WHEREAS, the Company and Executive wish to further amend the Employment Agreement in certain respects as provided in this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged, the Company and Executive hereby agree as follows:
1.

a.Section 3(a) is amended to increase the Executive’s base annual salary to $220,000 effective September 1, 2013 and upon completion of a Financing Event (as defined) with proceeds of at least $20,000,000 the Executive’s then-current Base Salary will automatically increase by an additional 10%. Section 3(a) is amended to read in entirety as follows:
(a)    Base Salary. While Executive is employed hereunder, the Company will pay Executive a base salary at the gross annualized rate of $220,000 (the “Base Salary”), effective September 1, 2013, paid in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practices. The Base Salary will increase to 110% of her then-current Base Salary automatically upon Financing Event (defined below) with proceeds of at least $20,000,000 (cumulative). The Base Salary will be subject to review annually and may be adjusted upwards in the discretion of the CEO and the Board of Directors.
