CARING PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL, INC.
WITH
XXXXX X. XXXXXXXX
AGREEMENT, dated September 24, 1999, between CARING PRODUCTS
INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation having an address at P. O. Xxx 0000
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the "Company"), and XXXXX X. XXXXXXXX, an individual
residing at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the
"Executive").
W I T N E S S E T H
The Company and the Executive entered into a Restated and
Amended Employment Agreement, dated as of March 13, 1996 (the "Restated
Agreement"), certain provisions of which they now desire to further amend. Among
other things, the Company and the Executive believe it imperative, and in the
best interest of the Company's shareholders, that the Executive devote a portion
of her business time and attention to the affairs of Creative Products
International, Inc. ("Creative"), a subsidiary of the Company whose shares are
to be spun-off to the Company's shareholders as a dividend (the "Spin-off"). The
Company and the Executive also believe it is imperative, and in the best
interest of the Company's shareholders, to make the Company as attractive as
possible to proposals from third parties in light of the Board of Director's
continuing consideration of the Company's strategic alternatives.
Accordingly, the parties hereto desire to and do hereby amend
and restate in its entirety the Restated Agreement as follows:
1. EMPLOYMENT TERM, DUTIES AND ACCEPTANCE.
(a) The Company hereby retains Executive as the Company's
Chief Executive and President for a period of one (1) year, commencing
on the date hereof (the "Initial Period"), and thereafter the Executive's
employment under this Agreement shall automatically be extended for successive
periods of one (1) year (each, a "Renewal" and collectively, the "Renewals;" the
Initial Period and any and all Renewals are hereinafter collectively referred to
as the "Employment Period") unless no later than ninety (90) days prior to the
expiration of the Initial Period or any Renewal either party hereto shall give
written notice to the other as provided herein of its or her election to
terminate the employment hereunder whereupon such employment shall terminate
effective upon the expiration of the Initial Period or such Renewal, as the case
may be, subject to earlier termination as hereinafter provided.
(b) In her capacity as Chief Executive Officer and President
of the Company, the Executive shall be responsible for the operations of the
Company, subject to the direction and control of the Board of Directors. The
Executive shall have the powers and privileges of the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, as defined in the By-Laws of the
2
Company in effect on the date hereof and as currently interpreted, and, to the
extent not defined therein, as the same are customarily performed and exercised
by a president and chief executive officer of a publicly owned corporation
incorporated in one of the United States of America. If elected, the Executive
shall serve as a member of the Board of Directors (and of any Executive
Committee or similar committee having powers of the Board of Directors now in
existence or hereafter created) of the Company without any additional
compensation for such services. As used in this Agreement, the term "Company"
includes each Subsidiary of the Company, and the terms "Subsidiary" and
"Subsidiaries" shall mean each corporation of which more than 50% of the
outstanding stock entitled to vote for directors is owned directly or indirectly
by the Company. The Executive hereby accepts the foregoing employment and, so
long as she is the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, agrees
to devote such portion of her business time and attention to the performance of
her duties hereunder as may be reasonably required so as to promote the profit,
benefit and advantage of the business of the Company. It is understood and
agreed that during the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to
devote approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of her business time and
attention to the affairs of Creative without violating the provisions of this
Agreement and to be compensated therefore as shall be agreed between Creative
and the Executive.
2. COMPENSATION; BENEFITS. As compensation for all services to
be rendered by Executive pursuant to this Agreement, subject to the conditions
stated herein, the Company agrees to pay to Executive all of the foregoing:
(a) BASE SALARY. Beginning on the date hereof and until
September 30, 1999, the Company shall pay the executive a base salary (the "Base
Salary") at a rate of One Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($125,000) per
annum; commencing October 1, 1999 and until the expiration of the Employment
Period, the Base Salary shall be decreased to One Hundred Thousand Dollars (US
$100,000) per annum, payable in accordance with the payroll practices of the
Company as from time to time in effect. On or as soon as practicable after each
yearly anniversary of the date hereof, the Board of Directors shall review the
services provided by Executive to determine the amount, if any, that Executive's
Base Salary shall be increased for the forthcoming year. This Agreement shall
not be deemed abrogated or terminated if the Company, in its discretion, shall
determine to increase the compensation to the Executive for any period of time
or if the Executive shall accept such increase, but nothing herein shall be
deemed to obligate the Company to make any such increase.
(b) BONUS. Executive shall be entitled to participate in any
bonus or profit sharing plan that may be adopted from time to time by the
Company and to receive a bonus or distribution thereunder (the "Bonus").
(c) FRINGE BENEFITS. Executive shall receive (subject to the
terms and conditions of particular plans and programs) all rights, privileges
and fringe benefits afforded to other senior executives of the Company,
including, but not by way of limitation, the right to participate in any
pension, retirement, major medical, group health, disability, accident and life
insurance, relocation reimbursement, and other employee benefit programs made
generally available, from time to time, by the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall pay, or reimburse Executive, for the cost of major
medical and health insurance irrespective of
2
3
whether such benefits are provided to any other executives or employees..
(d) EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. The Company shall pay or reimburse
Executive for all reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of her
services under this Agreement during the Employment Period, including expenses
incurred in connection with the operation and maintenance of her automobile

or such other supporting documentation as may reasonably be required.

physician, by mutual agreement, whose determination shall be conclusive. Either
party may request that such a determination be made, in which event the parties

required in order to allow such determination to be made. The cost of such
examinations shall be borne by the Company if such determination is that a
Disability exists or by the Executive if such determination is that no
Disability exists.

employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the
Company as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another
entity or by reason of anything done or not done by Executive in any such
