Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On May 16, 2017, BTHC X, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Michael E. Fasci, Sr., the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and a member of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), effective May 16, 2017 (the “Effective Date”).

Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Fasci will serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and may be terminated by a vote of at least 66% of the Board. Separately, Mr. Fasci agreed to serve on the Board, irrespective of his employment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. He may be removed from the Board by a vote of at least 66% of the Board.

The Employment Agreement provides for a term of two years (the “Initial Term”), subject to renewal for an additional one-year period (the “Renewal Term”) upon approval of the Board. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Fasci will receive an annual base compensation of $70,000 during the Initial Term and an annual base compensation of no less than $70,000 during the Renewal Term, to be determined by the Board. Mr. Fasci will also be entitled to receive an annual bonus equal to one percent of the Company’s EBITDA for such year. Additionally, Mr. Fasci will be entitled to receive (i) a five-year warrant to purchase 87,667 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share on the Effective Date, (ii) a warrant to purchase 87,667 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and (iii) a warrant to purchase 87,667 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share on the second anniversary of the Effective Date (collectively, the “Warrants”).

In the event that Mr. Fasci’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), by Mr. Fasci without Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or as a result of Mr. Fasci’s death, Mr. Fasci will be entitled to receive no further compensation other than any pro-rated base salary due and bonus amounts earned through the termination. All Warrants granted through the termination will remain exercisable.

In the event that Mr. Fasci’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, by Mr. Fasci for Good Reason, or due to Disability (as defined in the Employment Agreement), Mr. Fasci will be entitled to receive (i) the base salary through the end of the Initial Term or the Renewal Term, as applicable, (ii) the annual bonus for each year during the Initial Term or the Renewal Term, as applicable, which will be no less than the annual bonus amount earned in the immediately preceding year, and (iii) all three Warrants issuable under the Employment Agreement, exercisable immediately.

In the event that the Company terminates the Employment Agreement without Cause in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement) of the Company, then, in addition to the compensations described above, Mr. Fasci will also be entitled to receive (i) an increase of $30,000 in the annual base compensation, and (ii) a gross-up in the annual base compensation to offset any taxes due by Mr. Fasci on any payments received under the Employment Agreement that would result in a “parachute payment” as described in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and (iii) all three Warrants issuable under the Employment Agreement, exercisable immediately.

In addition, Mr. Fasci agreed to non-competition and non-solicitation provisions that extend for a period of two years following the date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such restrictions shall not apply in the event that (i) the Employment Agreement is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Mr. Fasci with Good Reason or (ii) the Company does not renew the Employment Agreement for the Renewal Term. Mr. Fasci has also agreed to customary terms concerning the protection and confidentiality of company information.

This summary description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Employment Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
