Employment Agreements

 

The Company had an employment agreement with Matthew E. Oakes, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, for a term effective June 1, 2013 through December 31, 2016. On February 20, 2016, Mr. Oakes’ employment agreement was superseded by a new employment agreement extending the term through December 31, 2017. The agreement provides for a base salary of $24,583 per month, discretionary and annual incentive bonuses based on the Company’s performance in achieving prescribed revenue and earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) targets. The agreement also provides for reimbursement of all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by him in the performance of his duties hereunder and certain severance benefits in the event of termination prior to the expiration date. If Mr. Oakes is terminated without cause or resigns from employment for “good reason” (as defined within Mr. Oakes’ employment agreement), he would receive one year of base salary and COBRA coverage at the Company’s expense. The Company shall continue to provide corporate lodging to Mr. Oakes through the term of his agreement.
