On June 16, 2016, Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) and Michael Becker, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to Mr. Becker’s offer letter dated October 18, 2014 (the “Offer Letter”). Pursuant to the Amendment in the event Mr. Becker is terminated other than for cause, he will be entitled to severance equal to six months of base salary and health benefits.

Pursuant to the Offer Letter that was filed in a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2016, Mr. Becker’s employment with the Company is on an “at will” basis, meaning that either Mr. Becker or the Company may terminate his employment at any time for any reason or no reason, without further obligation or liability, except as provided in his Offer Letter.

	Salary

	●	Mr. Becker’s current annual base salary is $232,000.

	Bonus

	●	Mr. Becker is entitled to participate in an executive bonus program pursuant to which the Board of Directors may award bonuses to him, based upon the achievement of written individual and corporate objectives such as the board shall determine. Upon the attainment of such performance objectives, in addition to base salary, Mr. Becker shall be entitled to a cash bonus in an amount to be determined by the board with a target of 25% of the base salary.

	Options/Restricted Stock

	●	Mr. Becker received an initial stock option grant of 30,000 options at an exercise price of $15.25 per share. Mr. Becker also received an initial restricted stock grant of 20,000 shares. The options and restricted stock vest over a four year period, 25% after one year and 6.25% per quarter over the next three years.

	Termination

	●	Termination for cause. Upon termination of employment for cause Mr. Becker shall be paid all accrued salary, bonuses, incentive compensation to the extent earned, vested deferred compensation pension plan and profit sharing plan benefits, and accrued vacation pay, all to the date of termination.

	●	Termination of Employment Other Than for Cause. If the Company terminates employment other than for cause, Mr. Becker shall be entitled to (i) all accrued salary, bonuses and incentive compensation to the extent earned, vested deferred compensation pension plan and profit sharing plan benefits, and accrued vacation pay, (ii) 6 months of base salary (at the rate in effect as of the date of termination), and (iii) the right to participate in all Company employee health plans for a period of 6 months.

	Non-Solicitation

	●	Mr. Becker agreed that during the term of employment with the Company, and for a period of 24 months following the cessation of employment with the Company for any reason or no reason, Mr. Becker shall not directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of the Company’s employees or consultants to terminate their relationship with the Company, or attempt any of the foregoing, either for himself or any other person or entity. For a period of 24 months following cessation of employment with the Company for any reason or no reason, Mr. Becker shall not attempt to negatively influence any of the Company’s clients or customers from purchasing Company products or services or to solicit or influence or attempt to influence any client, customer or other person either directly or indirectly, to direct his or its purchase of products and/or services to any person, firm, corporation, institution or other entity in competition with the business of the Company.
