Dear
Gina,
We
are very pleased to extend an offer of employment to you for the position of Chief Financial Officer of Vapor Corp., a Delaware
company (the “Company”). This offer of employment is conditioned on your satisfactory completion of certain
requirements, as more fully explained in this letter. Your employment is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
letter.
In
your capacity as Chief Financial Officer, you will perform duties and responsibilities that are commensurate with your position
and such other duties as may be assigned to you from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer, VP of Operations, President
and the board of directors. You will report directly to the President and VP of Operations. You agree to devote your full business
time, attention and best efforts to the performance of your duties and to the furtherance of the Company and its shareholders’
interests.
Your
principal place of employment shall be at our corporate headquarters, subject to business travel as needed to properly fulfill
your employment duties and responsibilities.
Subject
to satisfaction of all of the conditions described in this letter (including the Company’s Board of Directors approving
your appointment), your anticipated start date is September 15, 2015 (“Start Date”).
In
consideration of your services, you will be paid an initial base salary of $175,000 per year, subject to review annually, payable
in accordance with the standard payroll practices of the Company and subject to all withholdings and deductions as required by
law. You will be eligible to participate in the employee benefit plans and programs generally available to the Company’s
executives, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and programs. You will be entitled to four weeks of paid time off
annually (exclusive of holidays). The Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate any of its benefit plans or programs
at any time and for any reason.
Your
employment with the Company will be for no specific period of time. Rather, your employment will be at-will, meaning that you
or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice and for
any reason or no particular reason. Although your compensation and benefits may change from time to time, the at-will nature
of your employment may only be changed by an express written agreement signed by an authorized officer of the Company. If your
employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, you will not be eligible to receive any severance. If your employment
with the Company is terminated for any reason, you will be eligible to receive any earned unpaid paid time off.
This
offer letter shall be governed by the laws of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles.
This
offer is contingent upon:
(a)
Verification of your right to work in the United States, as demonstrated by your completion of an I-9 form upon hire and
your submission of acceptable documentation (as noted on the I-9 form) verifying your identity and work authorization within three
days of your Start Date.
(b)
Your execution of the Company’s enclosed Insider Trading Policy.
This
offer will be withdrawn if any of the above conditions are not satisfied.
By
accepting this offer, you represent that you are able to accept this job and carry out the work that it would involve without
breaching any legal restrictions on your activities, such as non-competition, non-solicitation or other work-related restrictions
imposed by a current or former employer. You also represent that you will inform the Company about any such restrictions and provide
the Company with as much information about them as possible, including any agreements between you and your current or former employer
describing such restrictions on your activities.
We
are excited at the prospect of you joining our team. If you have any questions about the above details, please call me immediately.
If you wish to accept this position, please sign below and return this letter to me within five days.
I
look forward to hearing from you.
Yours
sincerely,
/s/
