(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) appointed Anastasios (Andy) Omiridis, age 54, as the Company&#8217;s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, effective September&#160;1, 2022.

The term is automatically extended for an additional <span style="white-space:nowrap">one-year</span> period unless either party provides notice not to extend the term at least 30 days prior to the expiration date. The agreement provides for an annual base salary of not less than $450,000. Mr.&#160;Omiridis is also eligible to participate in the Company&#8217;s incentive plans and receive employee benefits provided to other executive officers of the Company. </p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under this agreement, if the Company terminates Mr.&#160;Omiridis&#8217;s employment without cause, he will be entitled to receive cash severance compensation paid in installments, and continued health benefits, for a period of 12 months. The cash severance payment is an amount equal to his then current annual base salary plus the average annual incentive award received in the prior three years. The severance benefits exclude any long-term incentive based compensation. The employment agreement also provides that Mr.&#160;Omiridis will not engage in activities that are competitive with our business for 12 months. </p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with his employment, the Company will make an award of restricted stock units with a value of $1,100,000 to Mr.&#160;Omiridis.

shall be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such benefit that the Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes or other amounts required to be withheld. If the
Grantee&#146;s benefit is to be received in the form of Common Shares, then, if permitted by the Committee, the Company may withhold a number of Common Shares having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The Common Shares used for tax
or other withholding will be valued at an amount equal to the fair market value of such Common Shares on the date the benefit is to be included in the Grantee&#146;s income. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the market value of the
Common Shares to be withheld pursuant to this Section&nbsp;6 to satisfy applicable withholding taxes or other amounts will not exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld. The Committee may, at its discretion, adopt any alternative
method of providing for taxes to be withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company be required to withhold or accept Common Shares for payment of any taxes if, in the good faith determination of the Committee, such
withholding or acceptance of Common Shares may result in breach of the terms of an agreement that is currently in effect and to which the Company is a party. </P>

Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Common
Shares pursuant to this Agreement if the issuance thereof would result in a violation of any such law. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement prevents the Grantee from providing, without prior notice to
the Company, information to governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations or otherwise testifying or participating in any investigation or proceeding by any governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations, and for purpose
of clarity the Grantee is not prohibited from providing information voluntarily to the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section&nbsp;21F of the Exchange Act. </P>

the provisions of Section&nbsp;409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause this Agreement or the Plan to fail to satisfy Section&nbsp;409A of the
Code shall have no force or effect until amended to comply with Section&nbsp;409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section&nbsp;409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of the
Grantee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company is not guaranteeing any particular tax outcome, and the Grantee shall remain solely liable for any and all tax consequences associated with the RSUs. </P>
