RE:  Amendment No. 2 to Asset Purchase Agreement (Closing)

 

Dear Kurt, Marty, and Dennis:

 

This letter (“Letter”) confirms our agreement to amend and supplement the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated December 16, 2011 by and among Recycool, Inc. (“Seller”), Marty Rosauer, Kurt Rosauer, Dennis Scott (Marty Rosauer, Kurt Rosauer, and Dennis Scott collectively known as “Selling Principals”), GlyEco Acquisition Corp #1 (“Buyer”), and GlyEco, Inc. (“Parent Company”) (all entities and individuals collectively referred to as “Parties”).   All terms not defined herein shall have the meanings in the Agreement.

The Parties agree to the following:

 

	
·  

	
Any overage in Net Working Capital under Section 3.2(B)(1) will be exchanged for additional Shares of Parent Company (at $1/share).

 

	
·  

	
Based upon Seller’s representations, Parties have calculated Net Working Capital to be $63,878, including $19,999 cash, $33,489 accounts receivable less than 90 days, and $10,390 inventory.

 

	
·  

	
Seller has paid $1,719 for January 2012 rent to Bolger Family Partnership, LLP.  In consideration of Seller’s payment of the rent, Parent Company will issue an additional 1,719 Shares in aggregate, distributed among the Selling Principals pro-rata in accordance with the manner Shares are issued among the Selling Principals under the terms of the Agreement.

 

	
·  

	
Based upon the addition of Seller’s consideration for $1,719 rent and $8,153 for the Audit Fee (in Amendment No. 1 to Asset Purchase Agreement dated December 27, 2011), and a Net Working Capital calculation of $63,878, the current Purchase Price is $543,750.  This Purchase Price may change depending on confirmation of the Net Working Capital calculation and other issues that may arise.

 

	
·  

	
Parent Company will issue and distribute Shares to Selling Principals according to the Schedule of Distribution of Shares attached hereto.

 

	
·  

	
Based upon the final Purchase Price of $543,750 as stated above, the Allocation of the Purchase Price under Section 3.3 will be as follows:

 

	
1.  

	
$465,706 in identifiable assets net of assumed liabilities (including $19,999 Cash, $10,390 Inventory, $33,489 Accounts Receivable, $401,700 Equipment, $5,000 Customer List, $5,000 Trade name and other intellectual property, and minus $9,872 assumed liabilities); and

 

	
2.  

	
 $78,044 goodwill.

 

  

  

  

 

	
·  

	
Seller has provided Financial Statements as described in Section 6.7.  Seller will provide year-end Financial Statements within 15 days after Closing.

 

 

All other terms and conditions of the Agreement remain unchanged.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of the 15th day of January, 2010, is made by and between TVAX Biomedical, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company
(“Company”), and Gary W. Wood, an individual (“Executive”). 
 RECITALS

 A. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Company is completing the transactions
contemplated in that certain Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated date hereof, among Company and certain purchasers of notes and warrants thereunder; 

B. Executive is actively engaged in the operation and management of Company’s business and has access to its confidential
information and trade secrets; 
 C. The Purchase Agreement provides that Executive shall enter into this Agreement agreeing to
employment and further agreeing not to engage in certain activities competitive with Company; and 
 D. The purchasers under the
Purchaser Agreement would not have entered into the Purchase Agreement and would not consummate the transactions contemplated therein without Executive becoming an employee of Company subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and without
the protections afforded by this Agreement to the goodwill, confidential information, trade secrets and business relationships of Company. 
 AGREEMENT 
 In consideration of the mutual premises and the
covenants, conditions, representations and warranties herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1.
Employment. Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive as Chairman, CEO and Chief Scientific Officer of Company, and the Executive hereby agrees to serve in such capacity and in this regard Executive acknowledges that Company
intends to hire a CEO and President as soon as practicable after the date hereof. Company reserves the right to modify, delete, add, or otherwise change Executive’s job responsibilities, in its sole discretion, at any time. Executive will
perform such other duties, as are assigned to Executive from time to time, provided that such duties are reasonably consistent with the positions held by Executive. So long as Executive is employed by Company, Executive agrees to devote
Executive’s full business time and efforts exclusively on behalf of Company and to competently and diligently discharge Executive’s duties hereunder. Executive will not be prohibited from engaging in such personal, charitable or other
non-employment activities that do not interfere with Executive’s full-time employment hereunder and that do not violate the other provisions of this Agreement or any employment policies of Company in effect from time-to-time. Executive will
comply fully with all policies of Company as are from time to time in effect and applicable to similarly situated employees of Company. 

  
 1 

 2. Salary. During the Employment Period, Company will pay Executive an annual
salary of $117,000 (“Base Salary”), payable in accordance with Company’s ordinary payroll practices. Upon the later of: (a) satisfactory completion of a six to ten person safety pilot study; or (b) the consummation of
private placement investments subsequent to the date hereof (including loans of a term longer than 3 years subordinated to the loans evidenced by the notes issued under the Purchase Agreement) in exchange for securities of Company and grants
received by Company with gross aggregate cash proceeds to Company of at least $1,500,000 (excluding purchases of securities under the Purchase Agreement and the exercise or conversion price for any options, warrants or other convertible securities
outstanding on the date hereof, including the warrants issued under the Purchase Agreement), as determined by Company’s board of managers in its reasonable discretion and the holders of 70% of the outstanding principal amount of the notes
issued under the Purchase Agreement, the Base Salary shall increase to $175,000. If Executive voluntarily waives, reduces or foregoes any Base Salary or other compensation and benefits to reduce Company’s expenses (whether to meet a cash
shortfall or otherwise) such amounts shall be deemed irrevocably waived, Company shall not accrue any obligation or liability for the same nor shall Executive have any right to receive or recoup the same in the future, it being agreed that any such
amounts are permanently and irrevocably forfeited. 
 3. Benefits. During the Employment Period, the Company will
provide Executive the same benefits as are provided to similarly situated employees of Company. 
 4. Expenses.
Company shall reimburse Executive for such ordinary, necessary and reasonable business expenses as are advanced by Executive in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder; but such expenses shall be substantiated by Executive in writing to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Company. Such reimbursements shall be made no later than the last day of the calendar month following the calendar month in which the reimbursable expense is incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for
reimbursement during a calendar month may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar month. 
 5.
Termination. 
 a. “Cause” means: (i) behavior by Executive which in the
determination of the governing board of Company, in its sole discretion, constitutes sexual harassment, discrimination or similar behavior; (ii) Executive’s commission of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude or the commission of
any other act or omission involving dishonesty or fraud with respect to Company or any of its affiliates or any of their respective customers or suppliers; (iii) conduct by Executive which in the determination of the governing board of Company,
in its sole discretion, tends to bring Company, or any of its affiliates into public disgrace or disrepute; (iv) Executive’s willful failure or Executive’s continued failure (which failure need not be willful) to perform
Executive’s duties hereunder or as otherwise directed by Company or its governing board; (iv) Executive’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to Company or any of its affiliates; (v) any breach of Sections

 2 

 
of this Agreement; or (vi) Executive’s repeated absence from work or purported resignation; provided, that for a determination to terminate the employment of Executive for Cause
pursuant to subsection (iv), Company shall provide a written notice of such violation to Executive and if Executive fails to remedy such behavior within 10 days of the date of such notice as determined by the governing board of Company in its sole
discretion then such determination of Company to terminate for Cause shall be effective; provided, further, that Executive shall have no right nor shall Company have any obligation to provide such notice or opportunity to cure for any
subsequent violation. 
 b. “Disability” means a determination by the governing board of
Company, in its sole discretion, based on competent medical authority, that Executive is unable to perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement, which inability continues for a period of 45 successive days or 60 days in any period of 90

 c. “lack of
performance by Executive” shall mean the governing board of Company determined in its sole discretion that Executive has not met the performance standards established for Executive; provided, that for a determination to terminate the
employment of Executive for lack of performance by Executive, Company shall provide a written notice of such determination to Executive and if Executive fails to remedy such performance shortfall within a reasonable period of time after the date of
such notice (but in no event longer than 30 days) as determined by the governing board of Company in its sole discretion then such determination of Company to terminate for lack of performance by Executive shall be effective; provided,
further, that Executive shall have no right nor shall Company have any obligation to provide such notice or opportunity to cure for any subsequent determination. 

d. Company agrees to employ Executive for a period of three years commencing on the date hereof and ending on third
anniversary of the date hereof (“Initial Term”) and for successive one year periods after the expiration of the Initial Term, unless either Company or Executive provides written notice of nonrenewal at least 30 days prior to the

expiration: (i) automatically upon Executive’s death or Disability; (ii) at the election of Company for any reason or no reason (whether for Cause or without Cause) by giving Executive written notice of the termination date; or
(iii) at the election of Company for lack of performance by Executive by giving Executive written notice at least 90 days in advance of the termination date (the date of any termination hereunder, the “Termination Date”).

 e. If the Employment Period is terminated by Company without Cause (excluding a termination of the Employment
Period by Company for lack of performance by Executive in accordance with subsection (d)(iii) or the expiration of the Employment Period), Executive shall only be entitled to receive for six months after the Termination Date
(“Severance Period”) Executive’s Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date paid on the same basis as previously paid in addition to Executive’s earned but unpaid Base Salary, benefits, bonuses and

required by applicable law, Executive shall not be entitled to any severance payments or other amounts and all of Executive’s rights to Base Salary, benefits, bonuses and other payments or benefits under this Agreement or otherwise which accrue
or become payable after the termination or expiration of the Employment Period shall cease upon the Termination Date or expiration of the Employment Period (as applicable). All of Executive’s benefits shall cease to be effective immediately as
of the Termination Date or expiration of the Employment Period, as applicable, (except as required by applicable law). Company’s obligation to pay or provide any Base Salary, benefits and bonuses and to make any other payments or provide any
other benefits under this Agreement or otherwise shall terminate automatically as of the Termination Date or expiration of the Employment Period (as applicable), except as expressly provided under subsection (e) and except for the payment of
earned but unpaid Base Salary, benefits, bonuses and other payments or benefits through the Termination Date or expiration of the Employment Period (as applicable). Additionally, if Executive fails to fulfill the full term of Executive’s
employment (other than as a result of Executive’s death or Disability) Executive shall be liable to Company and its owners for such failure and any loss, expense and damage (including diminution in value of the Company and its business and
consequential damages) to Company and its business arising from such failure and shall indemnify Company and its owners from the same. 
 g. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and in addition to and not in limitation of all other rights and remedies available to Company, if Executive breaches any of the provisions of
Sections 6 or 7 of this Agreement, Company shall no longer be obligated to pay or provide any Base Salary, benefits, bonuses and to make any other payments or provide any other benefits under this Agreement or otherwise, including any
payments during the Severance Period (if applicable).

 5 

 d. Executive hereby warrants and covenants that: (i) Executive’s
employment by Company and execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement do not and shall not result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is subject,

7. Restrictive Covenants. In consideration of Executive’s continuing employment with Company and the amounts payable
to Executive hereunder, Executive agrees that: 
 a. During the period of Executive’s employment and for
three years thereafter (“Non-Compete Period”), the Executive shall not, and shall not allow any of Employee’s affiliates to, engage (whether as an owner, operator, manager, employee, officer, director, consultant, advisor,
representative or otherwise), directly or indirectly, in any endeavor, activity or business anywhere in the world in any case that competes with or proposes to compete with or is or proposed to be substantially similar in concept, design, format or
otherwise to the business of Company as conducted by Company or any of its affiliates during the Non-Compete Period; provided, that this paragraph shall not be construed to prohibit the ownership of less than 5% of the outstanding stock of
any publicly-traded corporation. 
 b. During the Non-Compete Period, Executive shall not, and shall not allow
any of Executive’s affiliates to, directly or indirectly: (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Company to leave the employ of Company, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Company and any employee thereof;
(ii) hire directly or through another entity any person who was an employee of Company at any time during the Non-Compete Period; (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of Company to
cease doing business with the Company, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and Company (including making any negative statements or communications concerning Company).

defamatory public statements about Company, its affiliates, their respective business activities, or any of their respective directors, officers, members, managers, partners, owners, employees, affiliates, agents or representatives, to any party.

 d. At all times, Executive shall treat and hold as confidential any information concerning Company and its
affiliates and their respective businesses that is not already generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure, directly or indirectly, 

  
 6 

 
by Executive, including financial information, customer lists and other customer information, supplier lists, pricing and cost information, know-how, trade secrets, computer programs and
documentation, technical design, formulas, protocols, clinical trials, Intellectual Property Rights, manufacturing and application information, training information, personnel information, product developments, market information and advertising and
business and marketing plans and proprietary design information, in all cases concerning Company, each of its affiliates and their respective businesses (the “Confidential Information”), refrain from using any of the Confidential
Information except in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties for the sole benefit of Company, and deliver promptly to Company, at the request and option of Company, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential
Information which are in Executive’s possession or under Executive’s control. If Executive is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil
investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, Executive shall notify Company promptly of the request or requirement so that Company may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions
of this paragraph. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Executive is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any court, tribunal or other governmental authority or
else stand liable for contempt, such party may disclose the Confidential Information thereto; provided, that Executive shall use best efforts to obtain, at the request of Company, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall
be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Company shall designate. 

e. If Executive breaches any of the foregoing provisions of Sections 6 or 7, monetary damages shall not
constitute a sufficient remedy so Company may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief to enforce or
prevent any violations of the foregoing provisions Sections 6 and 7, in each case without the requirement of posting a bond or proving actual damages. 

f. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator declares that any term or provision of
Sections 6 or 7 is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court or arbitrator making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or
provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable
term or provision, and Sections 6 and 7 shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment or determination may be appealed. 

g. The foregoing provisions of Sections 6 and 7 are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to
subject matter, time period and geographical area) and are necessary to protect Company’s interest in, and value of, its business (including the goodwill inherent therein). Executive has significant responsibility for the creation of such
value. The purchasers under the Purchase Agreement and Company would not have consummated the transactions contemplated hereby without the foregoing provisions. 

  
 7 

 8. Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each
party will pay its own expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement. 
 9. Withholding. From any payments
due hereunder to Executive from Company, there will be withheld amounts reasonably believed by Company to be sufficient to satisfy liabilities for federal, state, and local income and earnings taxes and other charges and customary withholdings.
Executive remains primarily liable to such authorities for such taxes and charges to the extent not actually paid by Company.

13. Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by Executive. 

14. No Attachment. Except as required by applicable law, no right to receive any amounts under this Agreement shall be
subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to
effect any such action shall be null, void and of no effect (except to the extent of any assignment of any rights of Executive to any payments hereunder by will or by the laws of descent and distribution upon the death of Executive or otherwise by
operation of law to Executive’s heirs and representatives). 
 15. Source of Payments. All payments provided
under this Agreement shall be paid in cash from the general funds of Company, and no special or separate fund shall be established and no other segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment. No affiliate of Company shall be liable for any
amounts due hereunder. 
 16. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement, and shall be reformed and enforced to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.
