(h) Neither the termination or expiration of this Agreement nor the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, whether by the Company or the Executive, whether for Cause or Without Cause, and whether voluntary or involuntary, shall affect the continuing operation and effect of Section 6 hereof, which shall continue in full force and effect according to its terms. In addition, neither the termination or expiration of this Agreement nor the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, whether by the Company or the Executive, whether for Cause or Without Cause, and whether voluntary or involuntary, will result in a termination or waiver of any rights and remedies that the Company may have under this Agreement and applicable law.

(i) In the event of the termination of this Agreement or the Executive’s employment, whether by the Company or the Executive, whether for Cause or Without Cause, and whether voluntary or involuntary, except as expressly provided for herein, the Executive shall not be entitled to any further compensation or benefits.

(ii) cause or seek to persuade any director, officer, employee, customer, account, agent or supplier of, or consultant or independent contractor to, the Company or others with whom the Company has had a business relationship (collectively, “Business Associates”) to discontinue or materially modify the status, employment or relationship of such Business Associate with the Company, or to become employed in any activity similar to or competitive with the activities of the Company;

(iii) cause or seek to persuade any prospective customer, account, supplier or other Business Associate of the Company (which at the date of cessation of the Executive’s employment with the Company was then actively being solicited by the Company) to determine not to enter into a business relationship with the Company or to materially modify its contemplated business relationship;

(iv) hire, retain or associate in a business relationship with, directly or indirectly, any director, officer or employee of the Company; or

(v) solicit or cause or authorize to be solicited, for or on behalf of the Executive or any third party, any business from, or the entering into a business relationship with, (a) others who are, or were within one (l) year prior to the cessation of the Executive’s employment with the Company, customers, accounts or other Business Associates of the Company, or (b) any prospective customer, account or other Business Associate of the Company which at the date of such cessation was then actively being solicited by the Company, to the extent that such business is related or similar to, or competitive with, directly or indirectly, the business of the Company.

(b) The Executive agrees that, while he is employed by the Company, he will offer or otherwise make known or available to the Company, as directed by the Board and without additional compensation or consideration, any business prospects, contacts or other business opportunities that the Executive may discover, find, develop or otherwise have available to the Executive in any field in which the Company is engaged, and further agrees that any such prospects, contacts or other business opportunities shall be the property of the Company.

(c) For purposes of this Section 6, the term “Company” shall mean and include the Company and any and all Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Company in existence from time to time.

(d) In connection with the Executive’s agreement to the restrictions set forth in this Section 6, the Executive acknowledges the benefits accorded to him pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the agreement on the part of the Company to employ the Executive during the Employment Period (subject to the terms and conditions hereof). The Executive also acknowledges and agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 6 are reasonable and necessary in order to protect and maintain the proprietary and other legitimate business interests of the Company and that the enforcement thereof would not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood.

(e) In the event the Executive is entitled to receive a Cash Severance Amount, he shall be under no obligation to seek other employment to mitigate such payment, and there shall be no offset against amounts, benefits or entitlements due the Executive by the Company pursuant to this Agreement on account of any remuneration or benefits provided by any subsequent employment.

(f) The Executive’s obligations under Section 6(a) shall terminate in the event the Company materially defaults on its obligation to pay the Post-Termination Amount to the Executive in accordance with the provisions hereof, and such default continues uncured for a period of forty-five (45) days following the date on which the Company receives written notice of such default from the Executive.

(g) The provisions of the Confidentiality and Proprietary Rights Agreement, dated as the date hereof, between the Company and the Executive shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

7. Options. In the event that, during the Employment Period, the Board or the Compensation Committee determines, in its sole discretion, to grant one or more stock options to the Executive pursuant to the Company’s 2010 Equity Participation Plan (the “Plan”) or another stock option or equity plan of the Company, the stock option agreement evidencing such stock option grant shall provide for the following:

(a) a net exercise provision (as provided for in Section 13(b) of the Plan);

(b) once the stock option vests, it shall remain exercisable until the expiration date of the option notwithstanding subsequent termination of employment with the Company; and

(c) any and all unvested stock options shall vest and become exercisable (i) in the event of a termination of employment Without Cause or for Good Reason during the Employment Period (whether following a Change in Control or otherwise), or (ii) in the event that the Executive’s employment with the Company is not terminated by the Company on or prior to the Expiration Date, and the Executive does not resign his employment on or prior to the Expiration Date, and, on or prior to the Expiration Date, the Company and the Executive, for any reason, do not enter into an agreement to extend the term of this Agreement (whether on modified terms or otherwise) or enter into a new employment agreement, and, within three (3) months following the Expiration Date, there is a termination of employment Without Cause or the Executive resigns his employment for any reason.

8. Deductions and Withholding. The Executive agrees that the Company shall withhold from any and all payments required to be made to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement all federal, state, local and/or other taxes that are required to be withheld in accordance with applicable statutes and/or regulations from time to time in effect.

9. Code Sections 409A, 280G and 4999.

(a) The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (together with the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder, “Code Section 409A”), and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to the parties hereto of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of Code Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Executive by Code Section 409A.

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits constituting deferred compensation under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination of employment is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a termination of employment or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6) month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of the Executive, and (ii) the date of the Executive’s death (the “Delay Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 9(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified herein.

(c) All expenses or other reimbursements under this Agreement shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by the Executive (provided that if any such reimbursements constitute taxable income to the Executive, such reimbursements shall be paid no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expenses to be reimbursed were incurred), and no such reimbursement or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year.

(d) For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within sixty (60) days”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.

(e) In no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be offset by any other payment pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any payments or benefits received or to be received by the Executive in connection with the Executive’s employment with the Company (or termination thereof) would subject the Executive to the excise tax imposed under Section 280G or 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), and, if the net-after tax amount (taking into account all applicable taxes payable by the Executive, including any Excise Tax) that the Executive would receive with respect to such payments or benefits does not exceed the net-after tax amount the Executive would receive if the amount of such payment and benefits were reduced to the maximum amount which could otherwise be payable to the Executive without the imposition of the Excise Tax, then, to the extent necessary to eliminate the imposition of the Excise Tax, (i) such cash payments and benefits shall first be reduced (if necessary, to zero) and (ii) all other non-cash payments and benefits shall next be reduced. The determination of whether any reduction in such payments or benefits to be provided under this Agreement or otherwise is required pursuant to the preceding sentence will be made at the expense of the Company by independent accountants or benefits consultants selected by the Company, and the Executive shall have the right to review such determination.

10. Representations and Warranties. The Executive represents and warrants to the Company and its Subsidiaries that: (a) the Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment, noncompete, nonsolicitation, or similar agreement with any other Person; (b) the Executive is not a party to or bound by any nondisclosure, confidentiality or similar agreement with any other Person that would affect the Executive’s ability to perform his responsibilities on behalf of the Company; and (c) this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Executive, enforceable against him in accordance with its terms. The Company represents that this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. All representations and warranties contained herein will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

11. Indemnification. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify and hold harmless the Executive from and against any liability, damage, claim or expense incurred by him by reason of any act performed or omitted to be performed by the Executive in connection with the Executive’s employment with, or services for, the Company, such indemnification to include, without limitation, the advance payment of attorneys fees and other expenses reasonably incurred by the Executive in connection with defending, or otherwise resolving, any claim based on any such act or omission. Such advances shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Executive’s presentation of an invoice for such expenses. The Executive shall also be covered under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained for officers or directors of the Company on no less favorable a basis than that applying to the Company’s officers and directors in general. The Executive’s coverage under such policies shall continue during the Employment Period, and for not less than six (6) years thereafter, at the level then in effect for current officers and directors of the Company and shall be provided by the Company at its expense.

GENERAL RELEASE

I, Xxxx Xxxxxxx, in consideration of and subject to the performance by BioRestorative Therapies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), of its obligations under the Executive Employment Agreement by and between the Company and myself, dated as of March 9, 2015 (as amended from time to time, the “Agreement”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof, (i) the Company and (ii) each of its subsidiaries, affiliates and predecessors (including, without limitation, and to the extent that they could be liable in respect of their position with any of the foregoing, each of the present and former managers, directors, officers, direct or indirect equity holders, agents, representatives, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, assigns, beneficiaries, heirs, executors, insurers, personal representatives, and attorneys of the parties referenced in clauses (i) and (ii) above) (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent provided below.

1. I understand that any payments or benefits paid or granted to me under Section 5 of the Agreement represent, in part, consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive the payments and benefits specified in Section 5(b)(i) and (iii) or Section 5(c)(i) and (iii) of the Agreement, or the COBRA Reimbursement (as such term is defined in the Agreement), unless I execute this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter or breach this General Release. I also acknowledge and represent that I have received all payments and benefits the payment and provision of which were due to me, as of the date hereof, by virtue of any employment by the Company.

2. Except as provided in paragraph 4 below, I knowingly and voluntarily (for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns) release and forever discharge the Released Parties from any and all claims, suits, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory damages, liquidated damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs and attorneys’ fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date this General Release becomes effective and enforceable) and whether known or unknown, suspected, or claimed against any of the Released Parties which I, my spouse, or any of my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, which arise out of or are connected with my employment with, or my separation or termination from, the Company (including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act); the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Order Programs; the Fair Labor Standards Act; or their state or local counterparts; or under any other federal, state or local civil or human rights law, or under any other federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company or any of its affiliates; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress or defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this General Release to the contrary, this General Release does not encompass, and I do not release, waive or discharge, the obligations of any of the Released Parties (a) to make the payments and provide the other benefits contemplated by the Agreement, (b) under any restricted stock agreement, option agreement or other agreement pertaining to my equity ownership, or (c) under any indemnification or similar agreement with me.

3. I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action, or other matter covered by paragraph 2 above.

4. I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I execute this General Release. I acknowledge and agree that my separation from employment with the Company in compliance with the terms of the Agreement shall not serve as the basis for any claim or action (including, without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967).

5. In signing this General Release, I acknowledge and intend that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I expressly consent that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. I further agree that in the event I should bring a Claim seeking damages against any Released Party, or in the event I should seek to recover damages against any Released Party in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. I further agree that I have not filed and am not aware of any pending Claim as of the execution of this General Release.

6. I agree that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by the Company, any Released Party or myself of any improper or unlawful conduct.

7. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to preclude me from participating or cooperating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other state or federal administrative agency. However, in the event that a charge or complaint is filed against the Released Parties, or any of them, with any administrative agency or in the event of an authorized investigation, charge or lawsuit filed against the Released Parties, or any of them, by any administrative agency, I expressly waive and shall not accept any award or damages therefrom.

8. Notwithstanding anything in this General Release to the contrary, this General Release shall not relinquish, diminish, or in any way affect any of my rights or claims arising out of any breach by the Company after the date hereof of the Agreement if and to the extent those rights, in each case by their specific terms, survive termination of my employment with the Company.

9. Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. However, should paragraph 2 of this General Release be declared or determined by any tribunal, administrative agency or court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or invalid, and should I thereupon seek to institute any claims that would have been within the scope of paragraph 2, the Company shall be entitled to immediate repayment, and I shall immediately return, all of the severance payments that I have received, and the Company shall not be obligated to make any further severance payments.

BY SIGNING THIS GENERAL RELEASE, I REPRESENT AND AGREE THAT:

10. I HAVE READ IT CAREFULLY;

11. I UNDERSTAND ALL OF ITS TERMS AND KNOW THAT I AM GIVING UP IMPORTANT RIGHTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, RIGHTS UNDER THE AGE DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT OF 1967, AS AMENDED, TITLE VII OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964, AS AMENDED, THE EQUAL PAY ACT OF 1963, THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT OF 1990, AND THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OF 1974, AS AMENDED;

12. I VOLUNTARILY CONSENT TO EVERYTHING IN IT;

13. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY BEFORE EXECUTING IT AND I HAVE DONE SO OR, AFTER CAREFUL READING AND CONSIDERATION I HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO DO SO OF MY OWN VOLITION;

14. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED I HAVE TWENTY-ONE (21) CALENDAR DAYS TO REVIEW THIS GENERAL RELEASE;

15. I AGREE THAT ANY MODIFICATIONS, MATERIAL OR OTHERWISE, MADE TO THIS GENERAL RELEASE DO NOT RESTART OR AFFECT IN ANY MANNER THE ORIGINAL TWENTY-ONE (21) CALENDAR DAY CONSIDERATION PERIOD;

16. I UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE SEVEN (7) DAYS AFTER THE EXECUTION OF THIS GENERAL RELEASE TO REVOKE IT AND THAT THIS GENERAL RELEASE SHALL NOT BECOME EFFECTIVE OR ENFORCEABLE UNTIL THE REVOCATION PERIOD HAS EXPIRED;

17. I HAVE SIGNED THIS GENERAL RELEASE KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AND WITH THE ADVICE OF ANY COUNSEL RETAINED TO ADVISE ME WITH RESPECT TO IT; AND

18. I AGREE THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS GENERAL RELEASE MAY NOT BE AMENDED, WAIVED, CHANGED OR MODIFIED EXCEPT BY AN INSTRUMENT IN WRITING SIGNED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMPANY AND BY ME.
