Employment Agreements

Each executive officer serves at the discretion of our board of directors. We have entered into employment contracts with certain of our executive officers with initial terms of three-years. The agreements automatically extend for subsequent one-year periods on the anniversary date unless either party gives the other 90 days written notice prior to the anniversary date of the intent not to renew the agreement. Under the employment agreement, the executive officer is entitled to participate in an annual bonus and management incentive program and to benefits offered to other similarly situated employees as established by the Board from time to time.

Robert E. Weiss

On April 3, 2006, we entered into an employment agreement with Robert E. Weiss, as our Vice President, Equipment Division, effective on April 1, 2006. His base salary was $175,000. The agreement has an initial term of three years and automatically extends for subsequent one-year periods on the anniversary date unless either party gives the other 90 days written notice prior to the anniversary date of the intent not to renew the agreement. Mr. Weiss was appointed Chief Technology Officer in May 2007. On July 22, 2008, the Compensation Committee approved a change in compensation for Mr. Weiss. Effective August 1, 2008, Mr. Weiss’s annual base salary increased to $285,000.

The agreement with Mr. Weiss was amended in December 2008 to clarify the manner in which the agreement complies with recent changes to applicable tax laws, including Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In particular, the Restated Employment Agreement (i) exempts the arrangements from the Code, and (ii) provides a “back stop” to implement a 6-month delay in payment if the revised arrangements are, in the future, deemed to be “deferred compensation” for purposes of the Code.

Under the agreement, the Non-Renewal severance consists of (i) a pro-rata portion of the Executive’s Regular Severance pay; (ii) payment of premiums for continued medical and any other applicable health insurance coverage under COBRA; and (iii) the vesting of a pro-rata portion of any unvested equity compensation awards that would have vested within twelve months of the termination date.

Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

The named executive officer may terminate his employment agreement for “good reason”. We may terminate the agreement at any time for “cause” or in the event of the named executive officer’s disability or death. If we terminate for “cause”, the named executive officer’s obligations cease after a specific termination procedure process. If we terminate “without cause” or the named executive officer terminates for “good reason”, the named executive officer is entitled to one year base salary, the amount of incentive compensation paid in the prior year under the applicable incentive program, and vesting of restricted stock, warrants, or options that would vest over the 12 months immediately following the cessation of employment. In the event that the agreement is terminated because of death, all obligations to the named executive officer immediately cease, except for benefits accrued to date. In the event of disability preventing the named executive officer from substantially performing his duties, we may terminate for “cause.”

If the named executive officer’s contract is terminated after a “change in control”, the named executive officer is entitled to a multiple of base salary, plus the target amount of incentive pay under the management incentive program. In addition, all unvested warrants, options or restricted stock then held by executive, if any, shall vest automatically on the termination of executive’s employment. Mr. Weiss’s multiple is 2.0. A “change in control”, as defined, includes (a) a consolidation or merger in which the Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation, (b) a recapitalization in which any person becomes the 50% owner and 50% of the membership of the board of directors changes commensurate with the transaction, (c) any transaction in which substantially all the assets of the corporation are to be liquidated, and (d) any person becoming the beneficial owner of more than 50% of our voting power. The agreement contains an eighteen month non-solicitation provision that restricts the named executive officer from directly or indirectly soliciting our current employees or

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

Equity Compensation Plan Information

On June 19, 2006, we adopted an Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) to enable employees, outside directors and consultants to acquire an equity interest in DayStar. In September 2008 and December 2010, our stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Amended and Restated Plan”). The 2006 Amended and Restated Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance stock awards, performance cash awards and other stock awards to employees, directors, and consultants. The 2006 Amended and Restated Plan reserves 2,700,000 of our authorized shares of common stock for issuance for these purposes. Under the 2006 Amended and Restated Plan, the term of stock options shall not exceed ten years and stock options shall not be granted with an exercise price of less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock, measured at the time of grant.

Grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, and restricted stock prior to June 19, 2006 were made from our original Equity Incentive Plan adopted in 2003 (the “2003 Plan”). The 2003 Plan reserves 116,667 of our authorized shares of common stock for issuance for these purposes.
