Mr. Witherill is to devote his full time and attention to his duties, and will receive an annual salary of $360,000, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices, provided that such amount may be deferred as determined by Mr. Witherill or the Board as needed to cover other Company expenses. Mr. Witherill is permitted to serve as a director of not for profit and for profit businesses that do not compete with the Company.
 
On August 14, 2020, the Company and Aaron Klusman entered into an Employment Agreement with respect to his positions as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board. Mr. Klusman is to devote as much time and attention to his duties as is necessary, and will receive an annual salary of $360,000, payable in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices, provided that such amount may be deferred as determined by Mr. Klusman or the Board as needed to cover other Company expenses. Mr. Klusman is permitted to purchase, sell, oversee, manage, and develop real estate properties and projects; and serve as a director of not for profit and for profit businesses that do not compete with the Company.
 
Both Mr. Witherill and Mr. Klusman (together, the “Executives”) will be eligible for a quarterly and an annual discretionary bonus as periodically established by the Board based upon metrics that will be established by the Board in its sole discretion. The Executives are also eligible to participate in and receive stock options under the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. The Employment Agreements provide that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Company’s existing or future incentive plans or any award agreement, upon a Change of Control, as defined in the Employment Agreements, all of the Executives’ outstanding unvested equity-based awards shall, at their option, vest and become immediately exercisable and unrestricted.
 
The Executives’ employment under the Employment Agreements commenced effective April 1, 2020, and will continue for two years, subject to successive one-year renewals. Each Executive will be an “at-will” employee. Either the Executive or the Company may terminate his employment with or without cause, for any reason or no reason, and at any time. The Executives are each subject to standard confidentiality provisions and a non-compete, non-solicitation covenant for a one-year period following termination of employment.
