5. Term.

(a) The Employment Period shall begin on the date of this Agreement and end on January 15, 2015, subject to earlier termination (i) by reason of Executive’s death or Disability, (ii) by Chardan and both Companies at any time for Cause, (iii) by Chardan and both Companies at any time without Cause, or (iv) by Executive for Good Reason, and in the case of (iv) pursuant to written notice to Chardan and each Company.

In the event that Executive terminates this Agreement without Good Reason during any portion of the Employment Period during which a majority of the members of the Chardan Board of Directors consist of persons designated or nominated by Executive or his Affiliates (or Executive has been provided the opportunity to designate or nominate a majority of the members of the Chardan Board of Directors and has declined to do so), except a termination resulting from Executive’s death or disability or as required by applicable law, including, but not limited to, the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar, Executive shall be liable for any resulting damages to Chardan and the Companies, up to an amount equal to the greater of (i) the value as of the date of this Agreement of one half of (A) the DAL Common Units acquired by Executive or his Affiliates and (B) the DAL Common Units received upon the conversion of each tranche of the Series B Preferred Units acquired by Executive or his Affiliates and (ii) thirteen million five hundred thousand dollars ($13,500,000.00). If Executive has terminated his employment resulting in damages as provided in the prior sentence, any such damage award owed by Executive to Chardan or the Companies must first be collected from Chardan Ordinary Shares or DAL Common Units held by Executive or, at Executive’s option, cash, or a combination thereof. For purposes of this Section 5(a), each Chardan Ordinary Share and DAL Common Unit shall be valued at Market Price (as defined in the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of DAL and, as to a DAL Common Unit, shall be the Market Value of a Chardan Ordinary Share) on the Closing Date.

(b) The Employment Period shall not end as a result of a Partial Termination; provided, however, that if a Partial Termination occurs, Executive shall be permitted to terminate his employment with the remaining entities. Executive’s voluntary termination of his position or employment with any one of Chardan or the Companies without a simultaneous termination of Executive’s position or employment at each of Chardan and the Companies, except if otherwise agreed by the Boards or required by applicable law, including, but not limited to, the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar, shall be grounds for a for Cause termination of Executive’s employment.

6. Severance Benefit.

(a) Termination of Employment Period without Cause or for Good Reason. If the Employment Period is terminated by Executive for Good Reason or by Chardan and the Companies for any reason other than death, Disability or Cause, provided in each case that such termination constitutes a “separation from service” as defined in Code Section 409A, and upon Executive’s execution (without revocation) and delivery to Chardan and the Companies of a release (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I) (the “Release”) within twenty-one (21) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment, Executive shall be entitled to receive from Processing:

(i) earned but unpaid Base Salary through the date of Executive’s termination payable in accordance with normal payroll practices but in no event commencing later than thirty (30) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment;

(ii) continuation of Executive’s current Base Salary, as in effect at the time of termination, payable in the same manner and in accordance with existing payroll practices as Executive’s Base Salary was paid prior to Executive’s termination of employment, beginning as soon as possible after the effective date of the Release, but no later than thirty (30) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment, for a period of three (3) years following the termination date (the “Severance Period”) (the benefit provided for under this Section 6(a)(ii) shall be referred to as the “Base Salary Severance Benefit”); provided, that if Executive is a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A) on the date of Executive’s termination of employment, such Base Salary Severance Benefit shall be bifurcated to the extent necessary to provide Executive with the following: (A) for payments of Base Salary Severance occurring during the first six (6) months following Executive’s termination date, an aggregate payment not to exceed the Base Salary Severance 409A Cap and (B) to the extent Executive’s Base Salary Severance Benefit is limited by operation of the Base Salary Severance 409A Cap, any amounts of the Base Salary Severance Benefit limited by operation of the Base Salary Severance 409A Cap shall be paid pursuant to Section 6(e) of this Agreement. The payment of the amount of the Base Salary Severance Benefit which does not exceed the Base Salary Severance 409A Cap is intended to be made pursuant to a “separation pay plan due to involuntary separation from service” pursuant to Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii);

(iii) payment of all accrued, but unused, vacation days, payable in a lump sum payment no later than the thirtieth (30th) day following the termination date;

(iv) provided that such payment shall constitute “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m), payment of the bonus Executive would have been entitled to in the year Executive’s employment is terminated, if as of Executive’s termination date the applicable performance goals had already been met, payable at the time set forth in the applicable bonus program but no later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) month following the year in which Executive’s employment is terminated; and

(v) any Employee Benefit Plan Payment.

The payments and benefits under Sections 6(a)(ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Agreement shall be referred to as the “Severance Benefit.”

(b) Termination of Employment Period for Good Reason. If Executive believes that Executive has grounds for termination for Good Reason, Executive shall provide written notice of the existence of the condition constituting Good Reason to Chardan and each Company within ninety (90) days of the date that the condition arises (the “Good Reason Notice”) and shall provide Chardan, DAL or Processing, as the case may be, with a period of not less than thirty (30) days in which to cure the condition and during such cure period Processing shall not be required to pay the Severance Benefit associated with a termination for Good Reason. The submission of such written notification by Executive shall not constitute Cause for Chardan or either Company to terminate Executive.

(c) Termination of Employment Period for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason. If the Employment Period is terminated by Chardan and the Companies for Cause, or by Executive’s voluntary termination of employment (other than a termination for Good Reason), Executive shall receive the following from Processing: (i) earned but unpaid Base Salary through the date of Executive’s termination of employment payable in accordance with normal payroll practices but in no event commencing later than thirty (30) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment, (ii) accrued but, unused vacation, days payable in a lump sum no later than the thirtieth (30th) day following the termination date and (iii) any Employee Benefit Plan Payment.

(d) Termination of Employment Period – Death or Disability. If the Employment Period is terminated due to Executive’s death or Disability, Executive (or, if applicable, his estate or representative) shall receive the following from Processing: (i) earned but unpaid Base Salary through the date of Executive’s termination payable in accordance with normal payroll practices but in no event later than thirty (30) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment, (ii) payment for all accrued but unused vacation days, payable in a lump sum no later than the thirtieth (30th) day following the termination date, and (iii) any Employee Benefit Plan Payment.

(e) Special 6-Month Delay Rule for Severance Benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of termination Executive constitutes a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A), commencing on the date that Executive is terminated, in connection with the Severance Benefit, Executive shall receive from Processing: (i) the amount not in excess of the Base Salary Severance 409A Cap and the benefits that are excepted from compliance with Code Section 409A according to the terms of this Agreement or other plans or arrangements covering such

payments and (ii) the remaining payments in excess of the Base Salary Severance 409A Cap and the benefits not excepted from Code Section 409A shall be suspended for a six-month period beginning on the date of Executive’s termination of employment and paid by Processing in a lump sum payment upon the earlier of (A) the first day of the seventh (7th) month following Executive’s termination of employment or (B) the date of Executive’s death, with any remaining payments occurring on their regularly scheduled payment dates. Any payments, including amounts suspended under Code Section 409A, made later than ten (10) days following the date of Executive’s termination (or applicable due date under this Section 6) for whatever reason, shall include interest at a then reasonable money market rate, which shall begin accruing on the tenth (10th) day following the date of Executive’s termination (or applicable due date under this Section 6).

(f) If the Employment Period is terminated within two (2) years following a Change in Control, or if a Change in Control occurs before the payment of the full Severance Benefit has been made, any then remaining unpaid Severance Benefit shall be accelerated and be paid to Executive by Processing in a lump sum within ninety (90) days following the Change in Control.

7. No Mitigation or Duty to Seek Reemployment. Executive shall be under no duty or obligation to seek or accept other employment after termination and shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payments provided for by this Agreement by seeking employment or otherwise. The Severance Benefit shall not be reduced or suspended if Executive accepts other employment.

8. Survival. Sections 6 through 22 (other than Sections 16 and 19) shall survive and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Period.

9. Severability. If any one or more of the terms, provisions, promises, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be adjudged to any extent invalid, unenforceable, void or voidable for any reason whatsoever by a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitration tribunal, such provision shall be as narrowly construed as possible, and each and all of the remaining terms, provisions, promises, covenants and conditions of this Agreement or their application to other persons or circumstances will not be affected thereby and shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. To the extent this Agreement is in violation of any applicable laws, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement, to the extent possible consistent with its purposes, to conform to applicable laws.

None of the undersigned shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or other electronic transmission to deliver a signature or the fact that such signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or other electronic transmission as a defense to the enforceability of this Agreement and each of the undersigned forever waives any such defense.

13. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Chardan and each Company and any successor to any of them (to which this Agreement may be assigned), including without limitation any persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of Chardan or either Company, whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed Chardan or a Company, as the case may be, for the purposes of this Agreement). This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by Executive.

14. Governing Law; Venue; Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and all matters arising under or related hereto, shall be governed according to the laws of the State of Florida, without respect to its conflict of law principles. Each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Florida and of the United States of America in the County of Broward for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (and each party agrees not to commence any action, suits or proceeding relating thereto except in such courts).

15. Amendment of Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended to comply with applicable law, including, but not limited to, Code Section 409A and Code Section 457A.

16. Insurance. The Companies may, at their discretion, apply for and procure in their own name and for their own benefit life and/or disability insurance on Executive in any amount or amounts considered advisable. Executive agrees to cooperate in any medical or other examination, supply any information and execute and deliver any applications or other instruments in writing as may be reasonably necessary to obtain and constitute such insurance.

17. Executive’s Cooperation. During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive shall cooperate with Chardan and each Company in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by Chardan or a Company (including, without limitation, Executive being available to Chardan and each Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the request of Chardan or either Company to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to Chardan or either Company all pertinent information and turning over to Chardan or either Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments). In the event Chardan or either Company requires Executive’s cooperation in accordance with this Section 17 after the end of the Employment Period, Chardan or such Company, as the case may be, shall pay Executive a per diem reasonably determined by the relevant Board and reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including lodging and meals, upon submission of receipts).

18. Code Section 409A and Code Section 457A. It is intended that the payments under this Agreement shall be exempt from or in compliance with Code Section 409A and, to the extent applicable, Code Section 457A, and Chardan and each Company reserves the right to amend the terms of the Agreement if necessary either to exempt the payments or comply with Section 409A and, to the extent applicable, Code Section 457A. However, in no event shall the Companies or Chardan be responsible for any tax or penalty owed by Executive or Executive’s spouse or beneficiary, with regard to any benefit provided for under this Agreement.

19. Tax Withholding. Chardan and/or any Company may withhold amounts from any payments made to Executive under this Agreement to satisfy all applicable Federal, State, local or other income (including excise) and employment withholding taxes. In the event Chardan and each Company fails to withhold such sums for any reason, or withholding is required for any non-cash payments provided in connection with any benefits paid to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, Chardan or any Company may require Executive to promptly remit to Chardan or a Company sufficient cash to satisfy all applicable income and employment withholding taxes.

20. Excess Parachute Payments. It is the intent of the parties hereto that no amount payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall cause any payment or transfer by the Companies or Chardan for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable (or transferred or transferable) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), to be subject to taxation under Code Section 4999 as an “excess parachute payment” as defined in Code Section 280G. To the extent that it is determined that a Payment constitutes an “excess parachute payment,” the Payment will be reduced to the highest amount permissible under Code Sections 280G and 4999 as necessary to prevent Executive from becoming subject to the excess parachute payment excise tax under Code Section 4999 and as necessary to prevent the Companies or Chardan from losing all or part of its compensation deduction for such payment to the extent such deduction is applicable.

21. Construction.

(a) All references in this Agreement to “Sections” and “Exhibits” refer to the Sections and exhibits of this Agreement. The Section headings and titles appearing in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way define, limit, construe, or describe the scope or extent of such Section or in any way affect this Agreement or the interpretation hereof.

(g) All provisions of this Agreement have been mutually negotiated and drafted. The provisions of this Agreement will be interpreted and construed in accordance with their fair meanings, and not strictly for or against any party, regardless of which party may have drafted this Agreement or any specific provision.

22. Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. During the Employment Period and for six (6) years thereafter, Chardan and each Company agrees to maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance covering Executive on the same terms as it maintains such insurance for the benefit of any other director or officer (or any former director or officer) of Chardan or either Company.
