EXHIBIT A

 

 

Executive will assist the Chief Executive Officer in connection with the sale of the Company's linen business (the "Linen Business").  Executive shall be entitled to a bonus compensation payment equal to $200,000 promptly following the closing of the sale or other disposition of that portion of the Linen Business representing approximately one-half of the Company's revenues attributable to the Linen Business to a non-affiliated purchaser or purchasers pursuant to a fully executed purchase and sale agreement that has been approved by the Board (the "First Bonus").  This First Bonus will be paid to Executive in cash promptly following the closing of the sale transaction.  In addition, Executive shall be entitled to an additional bonus payment of $200,000 promptly following the closing of the sale or other disposition of the remainder (or a substantial majority of the remaining revenue so that, together with the first sale, 95% of the Linen Business by revenue is sold) of the Company's Linen Business to a non-affiliated purchaser or purchasers pursuant to a fully executed purchase and sale agreement that has been approved by the Board (the "Second Bonus").  For the sake of clarity, if at least 95% by revenue of the Company's Linen Business is sold in a single or series of related transactions that close pursuant to a fully executed purchase agreement that has been approved by the Board, then Executive shall be entitled to receive both the First Bonus and the Second Bonus totaling $400,000 promptly following the closing of the single or related series of transactions.  If the Board determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to sell the remainder of the Linen Business, thereby making it impossible for Executive to earn the Second Bonus, the Board shall substitute an assignment or project of similar magnitude, so that Executive shall have the opportunity to earn the Second Bonus.
