to and conditional upon the satisfaction of the condition set forth in this section 2(b), the Company shall pay to Albanese the
additional amount of fifty thousand Dollars ($50,000), less all applicable deductions required by law, within two (2) weeks after
satisfaction of such condition. For the purposes of this section 2(b) the condition shall be the publication by the Company of

2017. Commencing February 1, 2017, Albanese is eligible for continued medical coverage under the federal law known as COBRA. Coverage

Restricted Period defined in the Employment Agreement Paragraph 5(i) is hereby reduced to one (1) year from two (2) years.


 


3.             Adequacy
of Consideration. Albanese understands and agrees that the sums that the Company has agreed to pay and the actions that
it has agreed to take or refrain from taking pursuant to this Agreement are a result of the Parties’ negotiations, have
not been established to be required of the Company in the absence of this Agreement, do not constitute an admission of liability,
and constitute adequate and reasonable consideration for the Agreement.
