During the Executive’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Executive shall devote substantially all of her business time and attention to the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder and will not engage in any other business, profession or occupation for compensation or otherwise which would conflict or interfere with the performance of such services either directly or indirectly without the prior written consent of the CEO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive will be permitted to (a) with the prior consent of the CEO and which consent can be withheld by the CEO in his discretion, act or serve
as a director, trustee, committee member or principal of any type of business, civic or charitable organization as long as such activities are disclosed in writing to the Company’s CEO, and (b) purchase or own less than five percent (5%) of the publicly traded securities of any corporation; provided that, such ownership represents a passive investment and that the Executive is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such corporation; provided further that, the activities described in clauses (a) and (b) do not interfere with the performance of the Executive’s duties and responsibilities to the Company as provided hereunder, including, but not limited to, the obligations set forth in this Section 2.

Subject to section 5.2(b)(i) hereof, the Company shall pay the Executive an annual rate of base salary of three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000) in periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices, but no less frequently than monthly. The Executive’s base salary shall be reviewed at least annually by the Company’s CEO, and the CEO may, but shall not be required to, increase the base salary during the Executive’s employment with the Company. The Executive’s annual base salary, as in effect from time to time, is hereinafter referred to as “Base Salary”.

However, the decision to provide any Annual Bonus and the amount and terms of any Annual Bonus shall be at the discretion of the Company’s CEO.
(b) The Annual Bonus, if any, will be paid no later than the end of the first quarter of the fiscal year after the fiscal year in which an Annual Bonus, if any, is awarded; provided,
2
however, that in order to be entitled to an Annual Bonus the Executive must be employed by the Company on the date of payment thereof, except as expressly otherwise provided herein, such as section 5.2(a)(ii) in the event of termination by the Company without cause or by the Executive for good reason.
4.3 Equity Awards. Executive is eligible to participate in the Veru Inc. Equity Incentive Plan. Any grant of equity is subject both to share availability and to the discretion of the Board’s Compensation Committee and the Company cannot guarantee this award at this time.

The Company reserves the right to amend or cancel any Employee Benefit Plans at any time in its sole discretion, subject to the terms of such Employee Benefit Plans and applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of Executive participating in any US health insurance program offered by the Company or provided to the Company’s employees, and the Executive hereby waives her right to participate in any such health or medical program, the Company will pay Executive the amount of $598.00 (“Insurance Payment”) on a monthly basis, less applicable taxes.

6
for termination for Good Reason within thirty (30) days of the initial existence of such grounds, and the Company has had thirty (30) days from the date on which such notice is provided to cure such circumstances.

7
duties due to a mental or physical incapacity which is, or is reasonably expected to become, a Disability, then the Executive’s employment shall not be deemed terminated by the Company and the Executive shall not be able to resign with Good Reason as a result thereof. Any question as to the existence of the Executive’s Disability as to which the Executive and the Company cannot agree shall be determined in writing by a qualified independent physician mutually acceptable to the Executive and the Company.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Termination Date shall not occur until the date on which the Executive incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.
5.7 Resignation of All Other Positions. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason, the Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all positions that the Executive holds as an officer or member of the board of directors (or a committee thereof) of the Company or any of its affiliates.
5.8 Section 280G.
(a) If any of the payments or benefits received or to be received by the Executive (including, without limitation, any payment or benefits received in connection with a Change in Control or the Executive’s termination of employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement, or otherwise) (all such payments collectively referred to herein as the “280G Payments”) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and would, but for this Section 5.8, be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then prior to making the 280G Payments, a calculation shall be made comparing (i) the Net Benefit (as defined below) to the Executive of the 280G Payments after payment of the Excise Tax to (ii) the Net Benefit to the Executive if the 280G Payments are limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the
9
Excise Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount under (ii) above will the 280G Payments be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the 280G Payments is subject to the Excise Tax. “Net Benefit” shall mean the present value of the 280G Payments net of all federal, state, local, foreign income, employment and excise taxes. Any reduction made pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be made in a manner determined by the Company that is consistent with the requirements of Section 409A.
(b) Unless the Company and the Executive otherwise agree, all calculations and determinations under this Section 5.8 shall be made by an independent accounting firm whose determinations shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Executive for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations required by this Section 5.8, the accounting firm may rely on reasonable, good faith assumptions and approximations concerning the application of Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Executive shall furnish the accounting firm with such information and documents as the accounting firm may reasonably request in order to make its determinations under this Section 5.8. The Company shall bear all costs the accounting firm may reasonably incur in connection with its services as contemplated by this provision.
6. Cooperation. The parties agree that certain matters in which the Executive will be involved during her employment with the Company may necessitate the Executive’s cooperation in the future. Accordingly, following the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, to the extent reasonably requested by the Company’s CEO, the Executive shall cooperate with the Company in connection with matters arising out of the Executive’s service to the Company; provided that, the Company shall make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption of the Executive’s other activities. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation and, to the extent that the Executive is required to spend substantial time on such matters, the Company shall compensate the Executive at an hourly rate based on the Executive’s Base Salary on the Termination Date.

The Executive further understands and acknowledges that the Company’s ability to reserve these for the exclusive knowledge and use of the Company is of great competitive importance and commercial value to the Company, and that improper use or disclosure by the Executive is likely to result in unfair or unlawful competitive activity.
