This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is dated and entered into as of July 28, 2017 by and between PhotoMedex, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada (the “Company”), and Stephen Johnson (the “Executive”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ the Executive, and the Executive desires to be employed by the Company, in each case on the terms and conditions contained herein.

1.       Term of Employment. Subject to the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement, the Executive shall be employed by the Company for a period commencing on May 17, 2017 (the “Effective Date”) and ending on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Term”). The Term shall be renewed automatically for additional one (1) year period(s) unless terminated by either the Company or the Executive in writing by notice to Executive delivered no fewer than ninety (90) days prior to expiration of the then-applicable Term.

(b)       Devotion of Time to Company’s Business. The Executive shall use his best efforts, skills and abilities to promote and protect the interests of the Company and devote sufficient working time and energies to the business and affairs of the Company. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Executive has and will continue to have executive and management responsibilities to First Capital Real Estate Trust Incorporated and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “First Capital”) and that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to restrict or otherwise affect the obligations of the Executive to First Capital. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Executive (i) may serve on the board(s) of additional companies or organizations and receive compensation for such services rendered (ii) may engage in charitable, civic, fraternal, professional, trade association or other activities on behalf of private companies and receive compensation for such services rendered, provided that in each such case the activities engaged in by the Executive do not materially interfere with his obligations to the Company, and do not compete with the Company.

 

(c)       Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. During the Term and for a period of six years thereafter, the Company, or any successor to the Company resulting from a change in control, shall maintain a directors and officers liability insurance policy (or policies) in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 which shall provide comprehensive coverage to Executive.

 

(d)       Best Efforts. The Executive shall use his best efforts to carry out and successfully complete the assignments, tasks and job activities required, from time to time, to be performed to carry out Executive’s duties and responsibilities during the Term. The Executive’s duties and assignments shall be undertaken at such location(s) as may be determined from time to time by the Company, but in no event shall Executive be required to perform his duties on a regular basis at any location more than 25 miles from the location where Executive regularly performs his duties for the Company immediately prior to the Effective Date.

Executive shall take no intentional action that violates any law, rule or regulation whatsoever while acting in his capacity as employee.

 

3.       Compensation and Benefits.

 

(a)       Base Salary. As of the Effective Date, the Executive shall be paid a base salary in consideration for his services provided to the Company at the rate of $300,000 per annum (the “Base Salary”), payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices. Increases in Base Salary during the Term shall be determined from time to time in the sole discretion of the Board based upon such criteria as they deem relevant, or based on no particular criteria whatsoever.

 

(b)       Additional Compensation. The Executive shall be entitled to a bonus of not less than 35% of his Base Salary subject to achieving milestones that will be set by the Company’s compensation committee within thirty (30) days after the compensation committee receives a business plan for the Company from the Executive and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Executive shall also be entitled to equity compensation in an amount and with a vesting schedule to be determined in good faith by the Company’s compensation committee within thirty (30) days after the compensation committee receives a business plan for the Company from the Executive and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. This Agreement shall be promptly amended to reflect such compensation.

If at any time the Company does provide a health insurance plan for which the Executive is eligible, the Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Company of the cost of health insurance paid by the Executive for the Executive and his family. Any such reimbursement shall be paid to the Executive not later than March 15 of the year following the calendar year in which the Executive paid such cost. To the extent that the Company does not provide a health insurance plan for which the Executive is eligible, the Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Company of the cost of health insurance paid by the Executive for the Executive and his family, which reimbursement shall be grossed-up to cover any taxes the Executive would be required to pay as the result of the Company reimbursing the Executive for the cost of the Executive’s health plan.

  (h)      Prior Agreements. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (including verbal agreements) between the Executive and the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment with the Company.

 

  (i)       Cooperation. The Executive shall provide his reasonable cooperation in connection with any action or proceeding (or any appeal from any action or proceeding) which relates to events occurring during the Executive’s employment hereunder, but only to the extent the Company requests such cooperation with reasonable advance notice to the Executive and in respect of such periods of time as shall not unreasonably interfere with the Executive’s ability to perform his duties with any subsequent employer; provided, however, the Company shall pay any reasonable travel, lodging and related expenses that the Executive may incur in connection with providing all such cooperation, to the extent approved by the Company prior to incurring such expenses.

 

  (j)       Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

  (k)       Section 409A.

 

  (i)        The parties intend that the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement either be exempt from Section 409A, or be provided in a manner that complies with Section 409A and any ambiguity herein shall be interpreted so as to be consistent with the intent of this paragraph. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Executive by Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all payments and benefits which are payable upon a termination of employment hereunder shall be paid or provided only upon those terminations of employment that constitute a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (determined after applying the presumptions set forth in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h)(1)). Further, if the Executive is a “specified employee” as such term is defined under Section 409A at the time of a termination of employment and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated recognition of income or additional tax under Section 409A, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Executive) until the date that is at least six (6) months following the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date permitted under Section 409A, e.g., immediately upon the Executive’s death), whereupon the Company will promptly pay the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to the cumulative amounts that would have otherwise been previously paid to the Executive under this Agreement during the period in which such payments or benefits were deferred. Thereafter, payments will resume in accordance with this Agreement.

 

  (ii)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in-kind benefits and reimbursements provided hereunder during any calendar year shall not affect in-kind benefits or reimbursements to be provided in any other calendar year, other than an arrangement providing for the reimbursement of medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, reimbursement requests must be timely submitted by the Executive and, if timely submitted, reimbursement payments shall be promptly made to the Executive following such submission, but in no event later than December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. In no event shall the Executive be entitled to any reimbursement payments after December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. This paragraph shall only apply to in-kind benefits and reimbursements that would result in taxable compensation income to the Executive.

 

  (iii)      Additionally, in the event that following the date hereof the Company or the Executive reasonably determines that any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement may be subject to Section 409A, the Company and the Executive shall work together to adopt such amendments to this Agreement or adopt other policies or procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other commercially reasonable actions necessary or appropriate to (x) exempt the compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement from Section 409A and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the compensation and benefits provided with respect to this Agreement or (y) comply with the requirements of Section 409A.
