ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION  

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

On January 10, 2013, we entered into an employment agreement with Andre’ DiMino to secure his continued service as President, and Chief Executive Officer (the “Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreement has a ten-year term which will be automatically extended prior to the end of the then current term for successive one-year periods until either the Company or Mr. DiMino notifies the other at least 120 days prior to the end of the term that such party does not wish to further extend it. The Employment Agreement provides for a minimum annual salary of $125,000 and a fixed annual bonus equal to 10% of such annual salary, discretionary annual cash bonuses and participation on generally applicable terms and conditions in other compensation and fringe benefit plans. Mr. DiMino's employment agreement requires Mr. DiMino to devote at least a majority of his work-time toward the Company. The Employment Agreement provides that Mr. DiMino will be entitled to severance benefits in the amount of his base salary for a period of 12 months following the date of termination if his employment is terminated without cause or if he resigns for good reason, or 18 months following the date of termination if his employment is terminated without cause or if he resigns for good reason within 12 months following a change in control, in each case subject to the execution and delivery to the Company by Mr. DiMino of a general release.

During the term of the Employment Agreement and for a period of 12 months thereafter, subject to applicable law, Mr. DiMino will be subject to restrictions on competition with the Company and restrictions on the solicitation of the Company’s customers and employees. For all periods during and after the term, Mr. DiMino will be subject to nondisclosure and confidentiality restrictions relating to the Company’s confidential information and trade secrets and is obligated to assign all developments, related to the Company’s business, research and development activities, to the Company.
