On February 26, 2015, the Board of Directors amended and restated the Implant Sciences Corporation Change of Control Payment Plan which was originally adopted by the Board of Directors on September 7, 2012 (the “Original Plan,” and as amended and restated, the “Amended Plan”).  The Amended Plan modifies certain provisions of the Original Plan relating to the calculation and  amounts of payment to which certain  key employees and directors of the Company are entitled following a Change in Control (as defined in the Amended Plan) as well as certain terms and conditions of payment,  as described below.  

The Original Plan stated that any termination or amendment of the Original Plan that imposes additional obligations on, or impairs the rights of, a Participant shall not be effective without the written consent of the Participant.  The Company is in the process of seeking such consents.

The material amendments to the Original Plan are as follows:

Sums Paid Under the Amended Plan

The Original Plan provided that Participants would receive certain fixed amounts upon a Change of Control.  The Amended Plan does not provide such fixed amounts.  Instead, the Amended Plan provides for Change of Control Payments based on a percentage of Net Proceeds of a Change of Control after subtracting amounts that the Participant would receive in the Change of Control transaction as a result of the Participant’s ownership of certain stock options of the Company.  Change of Control Payments are calculated as (a) the product of (i) Net Proceeds of a Change of Control, multiplied by (ii) the applicable percentage granted to the Participant, reduced, but not below zero, by (b) any portion of the Net Proceeds or any other consideration which are payable to such Participant with respect to the At-Risk Options or with respect to shares of capital stock of the Company acquired upon the exercise of the At-Risk Options.  The options deemed to be “At- Risk” are identified in Appendix A of the Amended Plan.

In the Amended Plan, Net Proceeds is defined as the aggregate consideration paid in connection with a Change of Control, after payment of (i) all secured indebtedness of the Company and any controlled subsidiary, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon and all other obligations related thereto, including without limitation all indebtedness owed to DMRJ Group, LLC, and to the holders of promissory notes issued pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated as of March 19, 2014, between the Company and certain other parties thereto, and (ii) all other obligations and liabilities of the Company and any Controlled Subsidiary, including all expenses related to such Change of Control.  Net Proceeds shall be deemed to include (i) any consideration to be paid to the Company, any Controlled Subsidiary, or the Company’s stockholders (as the case may be) that is to be held in escrow and (ii) any consideration to be paid to the Company, any Controlled Subsidiary, or the Company’s stockholders (as the case may be) that is based on the future outcome or performance of the Company or any Controlled Subsidiary in the form of an earn-out according to the terms of the Change of Control. Upon any release from escrow and/or any payment of an earn-out, the Company shall make the Change of Control Payments attributable to such amounts upon the same payment schedule and under the same terms and conditions as apply to the corresponding payments to the Company, any Controlled Subsidiary, or the Company’s stockholders (as the case may be) and in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

Definition of Change of Control

In the Amended Plan, the definition of “Change of Control” was revised to mean the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(a) a merger or consolidation in which:  

(i)

the Company is a constituent party, or

2

(ii)

 more than fifty percent (50%) owned subsidiary of the Company, measured by the total fair market value and the total voting power of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of such subsidiary (a “Controlled Subsidiary”) is a constituent party, where any one Person, or more than one Person Acting as a Group, other than Excluded Person(s), acquires ownership of the stock of the Company or Controlled Subsidiary that, together with the stock then held by such Person or Group, constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company or Controlled Subsidiary (determined on a fully diluted basis assuming the exercise, conversion or exchange of all exercisable, convertible or exchangeable securities, respectively).  However, if any one Person or more than one Person Acting as a Group is considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same Person or Persons is not considered to cause a Change of Control.

(b) the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company of all or substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole to any one Person, or more than one Person Acting as a Group, other than Excluded Person(s), in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions during the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the most recent disposition to such Person or Persons, except where such sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition is to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; or

(c) the sale, exchange or transfer to any one Person, or more than one Person Acting as a Group, other than Excluded Person(s), in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions during the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the most recent transfer to such Person or Persons, of at least a majority, by voting power (determined on a fully diluted basis, assuming the exercise, conversion or exchange of all exercisable, convertible or exchangeable securities, respectively), of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company.

Eligibility of Participants

Under the Original Plan a termination of employment of a Participant did not affect such Participant’s ability to receive a Change of Control Payment.  Under the Amended Plan, in the event that a Participant is terminated by the Company for Cause or resigns without Good Reason, such Participant’s eligibility immediately terminates.  

Additionally, a Participant’s termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason prior to or after a Change of Control will not affect the eligibility of such Participant or his or her Beneficiary to receive a Change of Control Payment; provided, however, that, (x) in the event of a Participant’s termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason after the Effective Date but on or before June 30, 2015, then, for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Payment, the percentage applicable to such Participant shall be as set forth in Column B of Appendix B of the Amended Plan; and (y) in the event of a Participant’s termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason after June 30, 2015 but on or before December 31, 2015, the percentage applicable to such Participant shall be as set forth in Column C of Appendix B of the Amended Plan.

Termination for Cause is defined as the termination by the Company or any affiliate of any Participant’s employment with the Company or any affiliate for any of the following reasons: (a) the Participant’s conviction or entry of a plea of nolo contendere to any felony or a crime involving moral turpitude, fraud or embezzlement of the property of the Company or any affiliate; or (b) the Participant’s dishonesty, gross negligence or gross misconduct that is materially injurious to the Company or any affiliate or material breach of his duties to the Company or any affiliate, which has not been cured by the Participant within 10 days (or longer period as is reasonably required to cure such breach, negligence or misconduct) after he shall have received written notice from the Company or such affiliate stating with reasonable specificity the nature of such breach; or (c) the Participant’s illegal use or abuse of drugs, alcohol, or other related substances that is materially injurious to the Company or any affiliate.

Resignation for Good Reason is defined as the voluntary resignation of a Participant’s employment with the Company or any affiliate for any of the following reasons: (a) a “material diminution” (as such term is used in Section 409A of the Code) of the duties assigned to Participant; or (b) a material reduction in the Participant’s base salary or other benefits (other than a reduction or change in benefits generally applicable to all executive employees of the Company and its affiliates); or (c) relocation by the Company or any affiliate of any Participant who is an employee of the Company to an office more than 50 miles outside the Participant’s current workplace. However, resignation by a Participant shall be not deemed to be a Resignation for Good Reason unless (i) the Participant reports the event or condition to the Board, in writing, within 45 days of such event or condition occurring and (ii) within 30 days after the Participant provides such written notice, the Company or the appropriate affiliate

3

Form and Timing of Payments.

The Change in Control Payments will be payable to Participants, or their respective beneficiaries, in cash, no later than 30 days after the Net Proceeds are received by the Company.

Amendment of the Plan

The Original Plan stated that any termination or amendment of the Original Plan that imposed additional obligations on, or impaired the rights of, a Participant would not be effective without the written consent of the Participant.  The Amended Plan states that any termination or amendment to the Plan that imposes additional obligations on, or impairs the rights of, a Participant shall not be effective without the Participant’s written consent unless such termination or amendment shall apply with the same force and effect to all of the Participants, in which case no consent of the Participants, or of any individual Participant, shall be required.

Applicable Percentages

The applicable percentage of Net Proceeds to be received by each Participant is set forth below and in Appendix B of the Amended Plan.  As described above, the Change in Control Payment to which a Participant will be entitled based upon the applicable percentage below will be reduced by any consideration that the Participant receives as a result of the At-Risk Options.

PARTICIPANTS AND CHANGE IN CONTROL PERCENTAGES

The Company has reserved .87% for future issuance by the Board of Directors.

*Applicable percentage received by a Participant in the event of Participant’s termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason after the Effective Date but on or before June 30, 2015,

**Applicable percentage received by a Participant in the event of Participant’s termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason after June 30, 2015 but on or before December 31, 2015.

ARTICLE 1

Purpose

1.1

The purposes of the Plan are

(a)

to keep certain key employees and directors focused on the interests of the Company's shareholders and to secure their continued services in addition to their undivided dedication and objectivity in the event of any threat or occurrence of, or negotiation or other action that could lead to the possibility of, a Change of Control; and

(b)

to ensure that Participants who are employed by the Company and or its Affiliates do not (i) solicit or assist in the solicitation of employees of the Company or any affiliate for a specified period, or (ii) disclose any confidential or proprietary information of the Company or any affiliate prior to or after a Change of Control.

1.2

This Plan amends and restates in its entirety the Implant Sciences Corporation Change of Control Payment Plan adopted by the Board on September 7, 2012.

ARTICLE 2

The following capitalized terms used in the Plan have the respective meanings set forth in this Article:

2.2

2.3

Beneficiary:  The beneficiary or beneficiaries (including any contingent beneficiary or beneficiaries) of a Participant determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 6 hereof.

2.4

Board: The Board of Directors of Implant Sciences Corporation or any successor entity thereto.

2.5

Change of Control: The occurrence of any one of the following events:

(a)

a merger or consolidation in which:

(i)

the Company is a constituent party or

(ii)

more than fifty percent (50%) owned subsidiary of the Company, measured by the total fair market value and the total voting power of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of such subsidiary (a “Controlled Subsidiary”) is a constituent party,

where any one Person, or more than one Person Acting as a Group, other than Excluded Person(s), acquires ownership of the stock of the Company or Controlled Subsidiary that, together with the stock then held by such Person or Group, constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company or Controlled Subsidiary (determined on a fully diluted basis assuming the exercise, conversion or exchange of all exercisable, convertible or exchangeable securities, respectively).  However, if any one Person or more than one Person Acting as a Group is considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock by the same Person or Persons is not considered to cause a Change of Control.

(b)

the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company of all or substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole to any one Person, or more than one Person Acting as a Group, other than Excluded Person(s), in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions during the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the most recent disposition to such Person or Persons, except where such sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition is to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company; or

For purposes of this Section 2.5:

The term Excluded Person(s) means (A) the Company or any Affiliate; (B) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate; (C) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (D) an entity owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock in the Company.

The term Person shall mean an individual, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a limited liability company, a trust, an unincorporated organization or other entity.  

2

Persons will be considered as Acting as a Group if they are owners of an entity that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of assets, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar business transaction with the Company or a Controlled Subsidiary.  If a Person, including an entity shareholder, owns an interest in both the Company and the other entity that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of assets, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar transaction, such Person is considered to be Acting as a Group with other shareholders in the Company only with respect to the ownership in the Company prior to the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other entity.

ARTICLE 7

Taxation of Payments

7.1

Withholding Taxes:  The Company may withhold from the Participant's benefit payment hereunder the amount which it determines is necessary to satisfy its obligation to withhold federal, state and local income taxes or other taxes or amounts required to be withheld.

7.2

Section 4999 Gross-Up Payments.  If the total of all “payments in the nature of compensation” (as that term is defined in the regulations issued under Section 280G of the Code) to or for the benefit of the Participant (whether pursuant to the Plan or otherwise), determined on a pre-tax basis and before the application of the adjustment or gross-up provisions of this Section 7.2 (the “Participant's Parachute Payments”) would subject the Participant to the excise tax levied on certain “excess parachute payments” under Section 4999 of the Code, the Company shall pay to the Participant an additional payment (the “Section 4999 Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after reduction for all taxes, including the excise tax described in Section 4999 of the Code with respect to the Section 4999 Gross-Up Payment, the remaining amount equals the excise tax described in Section 4999 of the Code and all related interest and penalties due with respect to the Participant's Parachute Payments.

Any Section 4999 Gross-Up Payment shall be paid in connection with or as soon as practicable after the remittance to the applicable taxing authorities of the underlying taxes and in all events not later than the close of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such remittance takes place. Payments under the Plan (including any payments pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof) shall be made without regard to whether the deductibility of such payments (or any other payments to or for the benefit of the Participant) would be limited or precluded by Section 280G of the Code and without regard to whether such payments (or any other payments) would subject the Participant to the excise tax levied on certain “excess parachute payments” under Section 4999 of the Code.

7.3

8

7.4

Assumed Tax Bracket:  For purposes of determining the amount of the Section 4999 Gross-Up Payment and the Section 409A Gross-Up Payment, the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be deemed to pay federal income tax and employment taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income and employment taxation in the calendar year in which the Section 4999 Gross-Up Payment and the Section 409A Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state and locality of the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary’s domicile for income tax purposes on the date the Section 4999 Gross-Up Payment and the Section 409A Gross-Up Payment is made, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that may be obtained from the deduction of such state and local taxes.

7.5

Determination of Excise Tax:  All determinations of Section 4999 Gross-Up Payments and Section 409A Gross-Up Payments that are required to be made under this Article 7 shall be made by such public accounting firm as may be retained by the Company. The determination by such accounting firm shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error.  

7.6

Claim by Internal Revenue Service:  As soon as practicable, a Participant shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would result in the imposition of the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or a Section 409A Tax. If the Company notifies the Participant in writing that it desires to contest such claim, the Participant shall cooperate in all reasonable ways with the Company in such contest and the Company shall be entitled to participate in all proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Participant harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any excise, employment or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses.

ARTICLE 8

Miscellaneous

8.1

No Mitigation and Burden of Proof:  Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Plan, no payment payable hereunder shall be subject to offset including, but not limited to, amounts in respect of any claims which the Company may have against the Participant, provided, however, the amount payable hereunder to any Participant shall be reduced by any amounts payable to such Participant from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to any other severance plan or policy (including any employment agreement).

8.2

Legal Fees:  The Company shall reimburse all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, of the Participant in connection with any legal proceedings relating to the Plan; provided, however, the Company shall not reimburse such costs and expenses for the Participant if (a) prior to the initiation of any proceedings by the Participant, such Participant fails to specify in writing all claims relating to the Plan and to provide the Committee with thirty (30) days to address such claims, or (b) the judge or other individual presiding over the proceedings affirmatively finds that (i) the Participant did not initiate such proceedings in good faith, or (ii) if applicable, the Participant violated in any material respect the terms of the agreement set forth on Appendix C.

9

8.3

Successors:  If the Company shall be merged into or consolidated with another entity, the provisions of this Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the entity surviving such merger or resulting from such consolidation.

AGREEMENT RELATED TO NONDISCLOSURE, NONCOMPETITION AND OTHER MATTERS

This Agreement is made this __ day of ________, 2015 between Implant Sciences Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation and _________________ (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, Executive acknowledges that the Company could be significantly harmed if the Executive solicits the Company’s employees, clients, or customers, or discloses any proprietary or confidential business information of the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the continued employment of the Executive by the Company and/or the protection afforded Executive by being designated a “Participant” under Implant Sciences Corporation Amended and Restated Change of Control Payment Plan (the “Plan”) (whether or not benefit payments are ever triggered thereunder), the Executive and the Company agree as follows:

1.

Proprietary Information.

(a)

Executive agrees that all information and know-how, whether or not in writing, of a private, secret or confidential nature concerning the Company’s business or financial affairs (collectively, “Proprietary Information”) is and shall be the exclusive property of the Company.  By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information may include inventions, products, processes, methods, techniques, formulas, designs, drawings, slogans, tests, logos, ideas, practices, projects, developments, plans, research data, financial data, personnel data, computer programs and codes, and customer and supplier lists.  Executive will not disclose any Proprietary Information to others outside the Company except in the performance of his duties or use the same for any unauthorized purposes without written approval by an officer of the Company, either during or after his employment, unless and until such Proprietary Information has become public knowledge or generally known within the industry without fault by Executive, or unless otherwise required by law.

(b)

Executive agrees that all files, letters, memoranda, reports, records, data, sketches, drawings, laboratory notebooks, program listings, or other written, photographic, electronic or other material containing Proprietary Information, whether created by Executive or others, which shall come into his custody or possession, shall be and are the exclusive property of the Company to be used by Executive only in the performance of his duties for the Company.

(c)

Executive agrees that his obligation not to disclose or use information, know-how and records of the types set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, also extends to such types of information, know-how, records and tangible property of subsidiaries and joint ventures of the Company, customers of the Company or suppliers to the Company or other third parties who may have disclosed or entrusted the same to the Company or to Executive in the course of the Company’s business.

16

2.

Inventions.

(a)

Executive shall disclose promptly to an officer or to attorneys of the Company in writing any idea, invention, work of authorship, whether patentable or unpatentable, copyrightable or uncopyrightable, including, but not limited to, any computer program, software, command structure, code, documentation, compound, genetic or biological material, formula, manual, device, improvement, method, process, discovery, concept, algorithm, development, secret process, machine or contribution (any of the foregoing items hereinafter referred to as an "Invention") Executive may conceive, make, develop or work on, in whole or in part, solely or jointly with others. The disclosure required by this Section applies (a) during the period of Executive’s employment with the Company and for one year thereafter; (b) with respect to all Inventions whether or not they are conceived, made, developed or worked on by Executive during Executive’s regular hours of employment with the Company; (c) whether or not the Invention was made at the suggestion of the Company; (d) whether or not the Invention was reduced to drawings, written description, documentation, models or other tangible form; and (e) whether or not the Invention is related to the general line of business engaged in by the Company.

(b)

Executive hereby assigns to the Company without royalty or any other further consideration Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to all Inventions which Executive conceives, makes, develops or works on during employment and for one year thereafter, except those Inventions that Executive develops entirely on Executive’s own time after the date of this Agreement without using the Company's equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information unless those Inventions either (a) relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the Invention to the Company's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the Company; or (b) result from any work performed by Executive for the Company.

(c)

Executive will make and maintain adequate and current written records of all Inventions. These records shall be and remain the property of the Company.

(d)

Subject to Section 4, Executive will assist the Company in obtaining, maintaining and enforcing patents and other proprietary rights in connection with any Invention covered by Section 1.  Executive further agrees that his obligations under this Section shall continue beyond the termination of his employment with the Company, but if he is called upon to render such assistance after the termination of such employment, he shall be entitled to a fair and reasonable rate of compensation for such assistance. Executive shall, in addition, be entitled to reimbursement of any expenses incurred at the request of the Company relating to such assistance.

(a)

(b)

Executive further represents that (a) Executive is not obligated under any consulting, employment or other agreement which would affect the Company's rights or my duties under this Agreement, (b) there is no action, investigation, or proceeding pending or threatened, or any basis therefor known to me involving Executive’s prior employment or any consultancy or the use of any information or techniques alleged to be proprietary to any former employer, and (c) the performance of Executive’s duties as an employee of the Company will not breach, or constitute a default under any agreement to which Executive is bound, including, without limitation, any agreement limiting the use or disclosure of proprietary information acquired in confidence prior to engagement by the Company.

(c)

 Executive will not, in connection with Executive’s employment by the Company, use or disclose to the Company any confidential, trade secret or other proprietary information of any previous employer or other person to which Executive is not lawfully entitled.

4.

Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation.

(a)

During the Employment Period and for a period of twelve (12) months after the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive will not directly or indirectly, absent the Company’s prior written approval, render services of a business, professional or commercial nature to any other person or entity in the area of trace explosives detection surface modification services to the medical device and semiconductor industries or such other services or products provided by the Company at the time employment terminates in the (same geographical area where the Company does business at the time this covenant is in effect) (or where the Company has made, as of the effective date of termination, active plans to do business), whether such services are for compensation or otherwise, whether alone or in conjunction with others, as an employee, as a partner, or as a shareholder (other than as the holder of not more than 1% of the combined voting power of the outstanding stock of a public company), officer or director of any corporation or other business entity, or as a trustee, fiduciary or in any other similar representative capacity.

5.

If any restriction set forth in this Section is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable.

6.

The restrictions contained in this Section are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of the Company and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose.  Executive agrees that any breach of this Section will cause the Company substantial and irrevocable damage and therefore, in the event of any such breach, in addition to such other remedies which may be available, the Company shall have the right to seek specific performance and injunctive relief.  The Company shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees in the event it prevails in such an action.
