Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Amendment No. 1 to Janet Mathews Employment Agreement

 

On December 29, 2015 Peekay Boutiques, Inc. (the "Company") and Janet Mathews, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, entered into Amendment No. 1 to Ms. Mathews' employment agreement. The Company and Ms. Mathews originally entered into the employment agreement on December 31, 2014.

 

The employment agreement, as amended, has an initial term of one year and then automatically renews for successive one year terms thereafter. Pursuant to the agreement, as amended, Ms. Mathews is entitled to an annualized base salary of $200,000 for the period from December 31, 2014 through June 30, 2015 and $225,000 thereafter. Ms. Mathew's base salary was increased to $225,000 upon entering into the amendment to her employment agreement, which provides that Ms. Mathews is entitled to base salary at the increased rate retroactively to July 1, 2015. The amendment also requires the Company to promptly make a payment to Ms. Mathews in the amount of $12,500 being the difference between the higher and lower base salary rate for the period from July 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015. Ms. Mathews is also eligible to receive a cash bonus of up to 30% of her base salary based upon the achievement of performance criteria that will be established by the board of directors and be based upon both Ms. Mathews performance and the Company's overall performance. Ms. Mathews will also be entitled to a special bonus in the amount of $100,000 upon the completion of the Company's next firm commitment underwritten offering of securities. Pursuant to her employment agreement, the Company also paid Ms. Mathews a special one-time bonus in the amount of $50,000 in April 2015. If Ms. Mathews is terminated without cause, then she would be entitled to continue to receive her base salary for the longer of one month or the remainder of the term of her employment agreement. Also if the Company completes a firm commitment public offering of its securities and Ms. Mathews resigns at any time following 12 months of the completion of such offering, the Company must pay Ms. Mathews $8,333.33 per month for up to twelve months provided that the Company's obligation to make these payments will cease upon Ms. Mathews obtaining other employment. Ms. Mathews' employment agreement contains restrictive covenants prohibiting her from owning or operating a business that competes with the Company or soliciting the Company's customers or employees for one year following the termination of her employment.

 

The foregoing is a summary description of certain terms of Amendment No. 1 to Ms. Mathews' employment agreement, by its nature, is incomplete. A copy of Amendment No. 1 to Ms. Mathews Employment Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated into this report by reference.
