The objectives of 2016 will be mutually determined by you and the company within 15 days of the commencement date of your employment. The Board of Directors will determine whether and to what extent the objectives have been met. |
| 4. | You will be granted stock options as determined and approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, in an amount equal to 50,000 stock options. The stock option grant will be governed by the Company’s stock option plan.

In addition, you will be eligible to participate in the Company sponsored 401(k) plan in the first month following 3 months of service.
