3. Employment and Duties. During the Employment Period (as defined below), Employee will serve in the Position and will report to the Board. Employee will have such duties and responsibilities that are commensurate with such position and such other duties and responsibilities commensurate with such position as are from time to time assigned to Employee by the Board (or a committee thereof).

4. Service as Director. As of the Effective Date, the Board will appoint Employee as a member of the Board. Employee’s failure to be re-elected to the Board, in and of itself, shall not constitute a termination of this Agreement, nor shall it entitle Employee to any severance benefits. Pursuant to the Company’s policies, for the duration of this Agreement, Employee will fulfill his duties as a director to the Company and as an officer or director to the any affiliate thereof without additional compensation. This Agreement shall not in any way be construed or interpreted so as to affect adversely or otherwise impair the right of the Company or the stockholders to remove the Employee from the Board at any time in accordance with the provisions of applicable law.

5. Term. Employee’s employment hereunder will be considered “at will”. Accordingly, this Agreement and Employee’s employment hereunder may be terminated at any time by either party.

6. Compensation; Performance Bonus.

A. Employee’s base salary will be paid at the rate of $550,000 per annum.

B. Employee’s base salary will be paid at periodic intervals in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices for salaried employees. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Employee shall be paid a pro rata share of his base salary in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices for salaried employees should his employment be terminated before the end of any given pay period. Employee’s base salary may be reevaluated on a yearly basis and shall not be decreased below the amount set forth in Section 6.A., but there is no guarantee that such compensation shall be increased, and the decision as to an increase therein remains at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board.

C. Employee will be eligible for an annual incentive compensation bonus of up to seventy percent (70%) of Employee’s then-current base salary based upon satisfaction of certain performance targets. These performance targets will be developed annually by the Compensation Committee of the Board, in its sole discretion, and will relate to, among other things, the Company’s Annual Operating Plan. All bonuses payable to Employee hereunder will be paid within sixty (60) days after the end of the calendar year for which the incentive compensation was earned; provided, however, that if it is administratively impracticable to make the payment by such date, the payment shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, but in any event by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) month following the calendar year for which the incentive compensation was earned. All bonuses pursuant to this paragraph, including Employee’s satisfaction of the performance target applicable to any such bonus, are subject to approval of the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion.

D. Employee may also be eligible for additional discretionary bonuses based on the achievement of certain specified goals established by the Compensation Committee. All bonuses pursuant to this paragraph are subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion.

E. Employee will be eligible for option or restricted stock grants as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion.

F. The Company will deduct and withhold, from the compensation payable to Employee hereunder, any and all applicable federal, state and local income and employment withholding taxes and any other amounts required to be deducted or withheld by the Company under applicable statute or regulation.

G. To the extent that any compensation paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement is considered “incentive-based compensation” within the meaning and subject to the requirements of Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), such compensation shall be subject to potential forfeiture or recovery by the Company in accordance with any compensation recovery policy adopted by the Board or any committee thereof in response to the requirements of Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any implementing rules and regulations thereunder adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any national securities exchange on which the Company’s common stock is then listed. This Agreement may be unilaterally amended by the Company to comply with any such compensation recovery policy. In addition, cash amounts paid and Company securities issued pursuant to this Agreement as “incentive-based compensation” are subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of Employee’s conviction of, or pleading guilty or nolo contender to, fraud; willful misconduct; uncured, material breach of the agreements to which Employee is currently or hereafter becomes a party; or other conduct by Employee that the Board determines is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company and its subsidiaries, including facts and circumstances discovered after termination of employment.

7. Expense Reimbursement; Fringe Benefits.

A. Employee will be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for customary, ordinary and necessary business expenses incurred by Employee in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder, in accordance with the terms of the Company’s expense guidelines provided on the Company’s internal website, provided that Employee’s entitlement to such reimbursements shall be conditioned upon Employee’s provision to the Company of vouchers, receipts and other substantiation of such expenses in accordance with Company policies. Any reimbursement to which the Employee is entitled pursuant to this Section 7.A that would constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be subject to the following additional rules: (i) no reimbursement of any such expense shall affect the Employee’s right to reimbursement of any other such expense in any other taxable year; (ii) reimbursement of the expense shall be made, if at all, not later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

During the Employment Period, Employee will be eligible to participate in any group life insurance plan, group medical and/or dental insurance plan, accidental death and dismemberment plan, short-term disability program, long term disability program and other employee benefit plans, including profit sharing plans, cafeteria benefit programs and stock purchase and option plans, which are made available to executives and for which Employee qualifies under the terms of such plan or plans. Employee will not be entitled to any fringe benefits not provided in this Section 7 or the Company’s Employee Handbook, which handbook Employee acknowledges that the Company can amend at any time, in its sole discretion.

C. The Company will provide to Employee a Company-leased automobile of year, make and model selected by Employee (subject to the approval of the Company as to a reasonable amount).

8. Employee Covenants.

A. Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. Employee acknowledges that, in and as a result of Employee’s performing the duties hereunder, Employee will be making use of, acquiring, creating and/or adding to confidential and proprietary information of a special and unique nature and value relating to the customers, potential customers, customer lists, suppliers, vendors and agents of the Company and its Affiliates, the contracts, pricing lists, marketing plans, business records, accounting records, sales reports, billing systems, inventory systems, financing and loan documents, bank records, financial records and statements, tax filings and records, account lists, territory reports, quotation forms, advertising and marketing methods and techniques, systems, methodologies, facts, data, patent and license information of the Company, the computer systems, computer programs, software, web portal solutions, customer sales portal design, development, and programming of the Company, the employee payroll information and records, employee medical records, information contained in employee personnel files or other employee files of the Company, and all other information concerning the business and/or affairs of the Company (hereinafter “Confidential Information”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the term “Confidential Information” does not include any data or information that has been voluntarily disclosed to the public by the Company or that enters the public domain through lawful means and not otherwise in breach of this Agreement.

i. As an inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement, Employee agrees that he will not, at any time, either during the term of this Agreement or thereafter, divulge, review or communicate to any person, firm, corporation or entity whatsoever, directly or indirectly, or use for his own benefit or the benefit of others, any Confidential Information which may be in his possession or to which he has access. Employee further acknowledges that all records and lists of the customers and prospective customers of the Company, and all matters affecting or relating to the business and financial operation of the Company, are the property of the Company and are considered Confidential Information and greatly affect the effective and successful conduct of the business of the Company and the goodwill of the Company. Employee hereby agrees that he shall never divulge, disclose or communicate any Confidential Information to any person, firm, corporation or other entity during the term of this Agreement or thereafter, so long as such information remains Confidential Information.

ii. Employee agrees that any books, manuals, price lists, customer lists, supplier and/or distributor lists, plans, samples or other written or electronic evidence and/or forms of Confidential Information, including, but not limited to emails, computer files and all other electronic media, shall only be used by Employee during the term of this Agreement and constitute the property of the Company. Employee is only authorized to use these materials while undertaking his responsibilities under this Agreement. All of these materials must be returned to the Company or destroyed by Employee upon his separation from the Company for any reason whatsoever.

iii. The confidentiality obligations herein shall not prohibit Employee from divulging confidential information or trade secrets by order of court or agency of competent jurisdiction or as required by law.

B. Covenants Against Competition. Employee acknowledges that his duties as herein described are of a special and unusual character which have a unique value to the Company, the loss of which could not be adequately compensated by damages in an action at law. In view of the unique value to the Company of the Employee’s duties for which the Company has contracted hereunder, because of the Confidential Information to be retained by or disclosed to Employee as set forth above and as a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement, Employee covenants and agrees that, unless the Company and its successors and assigns shall cease to engage in business:

i. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit the customers of the Company or its Affiliates or divert the customers of the Company from doing business with the Company, and further, shall not induce any individual or entity to refrain from referring customers or work to the Company. For purposes of this Section 8.B.i, the customers of the Company shall include:

1. any individual, business or governmental entity which purchased goods or services from the Company during the term of the Agreement or while Employee was otherwise employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or about which Employee learned or had access to Confidential Information;

2. any individual, business or governmental entity whose name appears on a list of prospective customers maintained by the Company to which Employee had access;

3. any suppliers, distributors, vendors or other entities which provided goods or services to the Company during the term of the Agreement or while Employee was otherwise employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or about which Employees learned or had access to Confidential Information; and

4. any non-profit organizations, large customer facilities or referral sources which did any business with, or referred any customers to, the Company during the term of the Agreement or while Employee was otherwise employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates, or about which Employees learned or had access to Confidential Information.

ii. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join, control, accept employment with, or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or act as an employee, agent or consultant to, or be connected in any manner with, any business which is competitive with the Company in any states, territories or provinces of the United States, Canada, Mexico or any other countries in which the Company has conducted business at any time prior to Employee’s separation from the Company, or such states, territories or provinces as to which the Company has future plans to expand its business into, for any reason whatsoever.

iii. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, regardless of the reason for Employee’s separation of employment from the Company, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or employ any employees, agents or independent contractors of the Company or their assigns, unless previously agreed to in writing by the Company or its assigns.

C. Employee’s Review of Sections 8.A and 8.B.

i. Employee has carefully read and considered the provisions of Sections 8.A and 8.B hereof and, having done so, agrees that the restrictions set forth in such Sections are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the Company, its officers, directors and other employees. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in Sections 8.A and 8.B hereof will not unreasonably restrict or interfere with Employee’s ability to obtain future employment.

ii. It is the belief of the parties that the best protection which can be given to the Company which does not in any manner infringe on the rights of Employee to conduct any unrelated business, is to provide for the restrictions described above. In the event any of said restrictions shall be held unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the parties hereto agree that it is their desire that such court shall substitute a reasonable judicially enforceable limitation in place of any limitation deemed unenforceable and, as so modified, the covenant shall be as fully enforceable as if it had been set forth herein by the parties. In determining this limitation, it is the intent of the parties that the court recognize that the parties hereto desire that this covenant not to compete be imposed and maintained to the greatest extent possible.

iii. In the event of a breach of Sections 8.A and 8.B, the Company, in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights, remedies or damages available to the Company at law or in equity, shall be entitled to a permanent injunction, in order to prevent or restrain any such breach by Employee, or by Employee’s partners, agents, representatives, servants, employers, employees and/or any and all persons directly or indirectly acting for or with Employee

D. No Disparagement. Employee shall not make any public statements or disclosures regarding the terms of Employee’s employment with the Company, this Agreement or the termination of Employee’s employment (for any reason whatsoever) which are not pre-approved in writing by the Company. Further, Employee shall not make, at any time, any public statement that would libel, slander, disparage, denigrate or criticize the Company, its parent company, subsidiaries and affiliates or any of their respective past or present officers, directors, employees or agents, and the Company, along with any parent company, subsidiaries and affiliates or any of their respective past or present officers, directors, employees or agents, shall not make, at any time, any public statement that would libel, slander, disparage, denigrate or criticize Employee. Notwithstanding this Section 8.D, nothing contained herein shall limit or impair the ability of any party to provide truthful testimony in response to any validly issued subpoena.

i. Employee hereby assigns to the Company all rights, title and interest in and to all creations which are or may become legally protectable or recognized as forms of intellectual property rights, including all works, whether registerable or not, in which copyright, design right or any form of intellectual property rights may subsist, including, but not limited to all innovations, inventions, improvements, marks, grants, designs, processes, methods, formulas, techniques, videotapes, audiotapes and computer programs, (all referred to as “Intellectual Property”), which Employee, either solely or jointly, conceives, makes or reduces to practice during the time that this Agreement is in effect, which relate to or touch upon Employee’s services to the Company, or any aspect of the Company’s business, including but not limited to anything related to Confidential Information. All such Intellectual Property shall be the absolute property of the Company. Employee shall make and maintain written records of and promptly and fully disclose to the Company all such Intellectual Property.

ii. During and after termination the Employment Period, Employee shall perform all useful or necessary acts to assist the Company, as it may elect, to file patent, design, mark and copyright applications in the United States and foreign countries to protect or maintain rights in the Intellectual Property, and also perform all useful or necessary acts to assist the Company in any related proceedings or litigation as to such Intellectual Property.

In addition, upon the receipt of notice from the Company (including outside counsel), during the Employment Period and for a reasonable amount of time thereafter, Employee will respond and provide information with regard to matters in which he has knowledge as a result of his employment with the Company, and will provide assistance to the Company and its representatives in the defense or prosecution of any claims that may be made by or against the Company, to the extent that such claims may relate to the period of Employee’s employment with the Company, all at Company expense.

H. Restrictive Covenant. During the Employment Period, Employee will not directly or indirectly, whether for Employee’s own account or as an employee, director, consultant or advisor, provide services to any business enterprise other than the Company or its Affiliates, unless otherwise authorized by the Board in writing.

I. Survival of Provisions. The obligations contained in this Section 8 will survive the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and will be fully enforceable thereafter.

J. Clawback. During the Employment Period and thereafter to the extent required by applicable law, Employee hereby covenants and agrees to abide by the terms of the Company’s “Policy on Clawback” once final rules are issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, listing standards are adopted by the New York Stock Exchange and such policy is then adopted by the Board.

The severance pay and benefits in respect of clauses (iv) and (v) shall be contingent upon Employee’s execution and delivery to the Company of an unconditional general release, in form satisfactory to the Company, of all claims against the Company and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and representatives, arising from or in connection with this Agreement or Employee’s employment with the Company, subject to applicable law.

10. Indemnification; Liability Insurance.

A. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify Employee and hold him harmless to the fullest extent permitted under the by-laws of the Company in effect on the date of this Agreement against and in respect to any actual or threatened actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), losses, and damages (collectively, “Claims”) resulting from the good faith performance of his assigned duties and responsibilities with the Company and any affiliates or subsidiaries of the Company. In furtherance of the Company’s obligation to advance expenses under the by-laws of the Company in effect on the date of this Agreement, the Company, within 10 days of presentation of invoices, will advance to Employee reimbursement of all legal fees and disbursements Employee actually incurs in connection with any potentially indemnifiable matter provided that Employee, to the extent required by applicable law, undertake to repay such amount in the event that it is ultimately determined that Employee is not entitled to be indemnified. In addition, the Company will cover Employee under directors and officers liability insurance both during and, while potential liability exists, after the termination of Employee’s employment in the same amount and to the same extent as the Company covers its other officers and directors. To the extent permitted by applicable law and the Company’s by-laws in effect on the date of this Agreement, Employee will not be liable to the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries for his acts or omissions, except to the extent that such acts or omissions were not made in the good faith performance of his assigned duties and responsibilities. The obligations and limits contained in this Section 10 will survive the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.

B. Employee hereby agrees to indemnify the Company, its Affiliates, and their respective successors, assigns, directors, officers, employees and representatives and hold them harmless to the fullest extent permitted under the law against and in respect of any actual or threatened Claims resulting from or attributable to any and all willful, criminal or grossly negligent acts or omissions of Employee in connection with Employee’s actions under this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent any such liabilities, costs, damages, expenses and attorney’s fees are compensated for by insurance purchased by the Company and/or Employee, Employee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for the same.

11. Section 409A. This Agreement shall be interpreted and applied in all circumstances in a manner that is consistent with the intent of the parties that, to the extent applicable, amounts earned and payable pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute short-term deferrals exempt from the application of Section 409A and, if not exempt, that amounts earned and payable pursuant to this Agreement shall not be subject to the premature income recognition or adverse tax provisions of Section 409A. Any payments to be made under this Agreement upon a termination of employment shall only be made if such termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service” under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by Employee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, if the Employee is determined to be a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A) for the year in which Employee incurs a separation from service, any payment due under the Agreement that is not permitted to be paid on the date of such separation without the imposition of additional taxes, interest and penalties under Section 409A shall be paid on the first business day following the six-month anniversary of the Employee’s date of separation or, if earlier, Employee’s death. If the period for considering and revoking the release described in Section 9.B. spans two taxable years, payments will not commence until the second taxable year. Any payments in respect of clauses (v) or (vi) of Section 9.B. shall be made upon the expiration of the maximum period to review and revoke the release referenced in Section 9.B.

12. Choice of Law. This Agreement is being executed and delivered in the State of Michigan. The provisions of this Agreement will be construed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Michigan, excluding such jurisdiction’s conflict of laws principles. The parties expressly agree that the Oakland County Circuit Court shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any disputes arising out of this Agreement and that venue is only appropriate in such circuit court.

13. Entire Agreement; Severability; Amendments. This Agreement, along with the other agreements referred to herein, contain the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all negotiations, discussions, proposed drafts and previous employment and compensation agreements. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and, if any provision is found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, (a) the provision will be amended automatically to the minimum extent necessary to cure the illegality or invalidity and permit enforcement and (b) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. No amendments, alterations or modifications of this Agreement will be valid unless made in writing and signed by Employee and a duly authorized officer or director of the Company.

14. Assignment.
