(e) Compensatory Arrangement of Executive Officer
On January 15, 2015, and effective as of January 1, 2015, Stratex Oil & Gas Holdings, Inc. (“Stratex”) entered into Amended Employment Agreements with all of its Executive Officers. The Executive Officers who have consented to the Amended Employment Agreement are as follows:

Michael J. Thurz, Chief Administrative Officer; and

The amendment to each of the Employment Agreements of the named officers, above, is effective as of January 1, 2015. The purpose of the Amended Employment Agreements is to assist Stratex cash flow during this period of reduced oil & gas commodity pricing.
The Amendments to the Employment Agreements removed the provision stating the amount of salary to be paid and replaced the amount with the following statement:
“…salary at the rate to be determined by the Board of Directors. Executive’s base salary may be reviewed and further adjusted from time to time by the Board in its discretion”.
In addition, each Employment Agreement amended the definition of a default under the terms of the Employment Agreement to affirmatively state that Resignation for Good Reason was amended to read:
“iii) failure by the Company to pay and provide to Executive the compensation and benefits provided for in this Amended Employment Agreement to which Executive is entitled.”
All other terms of the Employment Agreement remain unchanged.
